The Fairfield Inn in Fairfield, Pa., will be featured on “Ghost Lab,” as part of the popular show’s second season, beginning in October.

The paranormal investigation team, led by brothers Barry and Brad Klinge, visited the Gettysburg area and conducted several investigations, including the Fairfield Inn, where the crew spent two days researching supernatural phenomena.

“Ghost Lab” follows the team of brothers who founded Everyday Paranormal (EP), a paranormal investigation team whose mission is to “visit the most haunted places in America, find evidence, and test new theories to probe the existence of the afterlife” using a cutting-edge scientific approach.

“Ghost Lab” is also the name of EP’s mobile “command center”, a 24-foot trailer with state-of-the-art investigative equipment capable of providing 200,000 watts of electricity to power audio, video and photo analysis stations, including flat-screen televisions and an interactive touch-screen smart board, all employed to either confirm or de-bunk the evidence the team retrieves.
 
The 25 member cast and crew arrived at the 252-year old Fairfield Inn, located 8 miles west of Gettysburg, on Friday, April 23, and conducted a two-day surveillance and investigation of the property. The Fairfield Inn is one of only a hand-full of Inns in America that has been in continuous operation since the 1700s.

While at the Inn, the team used the Ghost Lab’s surveillance video cameras capable of shooting 300 feet away in total darkness with a 180-degree peripheral view. They also used temperature, humidity and dew point data loggers as well as various digital cameras, including thermal imaging cameras and audio recorders to investigate.

The Fairfield Inn’s owners, Sal and Joan Chandon, along with some of the staff, restaurant customers and bed & breakfast guests, were interviewed in an effort to collect first-hand accounts of paranormal activity.
