This week's episode of Paranormal Playback, Mel & Lor are on hiatus while Charlie dives into Ghost Adventures Season 30 Episode 7: “Gold Town Terror,” an investigation set in Jamestown, California, a former Gold Rush hotspot layered with tragedy, folklore, and alleged demonic activity. Charlie breaks down the town’s history, fact-checks claims about the Moaning Caverns and Jamestown Hotel, and analyzes the episode’s most unsettling moments, including a former sheriff’s alleged possession and evidence captured inside the hotel’s basement. With EMF spikes, validated baselines, Polaroid anomalies, and a chilling XLS figure, this becomes one of the most compelling episodes of the season. Charlie also delivers a special “This Old Haunt: Charlie Checks the Facts,” challenging myths while highlighting the real history that makes Jamestown genuinely eerie.
