Ellis, Lewis and Bradford also will leverage social media live during each premiere to provide additional insight and connect with the community that aided in each episode. TravelChannel.com will be home for show extras, behind-the-scenes photos and exclusive videos.<\/p>\n<p>The series premiere sees the trio headed to Franklinville, New Jersey. Upcoming episodes include \u201cVoodoo Vendetta\u201d in Oregon, \u201cThe Haunted Homecoming\u201d in Massachusetts and \u201cGhost Train to Terror\u201d in Texas, among others.<\/p>\n<p>In 2017, Ellis captured the image of a ghost child in his New York City apartment and wrote his first of many tweets: \u201cMy apartment is currently being haunted by the ghost of a dead child and he\u2019s trying to kill me.\u201d He documented his haunting on social media under the hashtag #DearDavid. Fourteen million people followed his terrifying experience.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAdam\u2019s extraordinary personal experience and harrowing tale that went viral in \u2018Dear David\u2019 makes him uniquely positioned to help those grappling with paranormal fear,\u201d said Matthew Butler, general manager at Travel Channel. \u201cThe stories in <em>Trending Fear<\/em> give local community members the ability to discuss and engage with paranormal stories that most thought too taboo to discuss publicly. Adam, Jen and Paul will be able to take them through the investigations\u2014in real time and with community help\u2014unlike any other paranormal stories before.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Travel Channel is set to launch a new paranormal series starring Adam Ellis, the Twitter author of the #DearDavid ghost stories.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1049,"featured_media":13674,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"pmpro_default_level":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[69],"tags":[108,4418],"class_list":["post-13673","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","","category-top-stories","tag-travel-channel","tag-trending-fear","pmpro-has-access"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.7 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Travel Channel Readies New Paranormal Series - TVREAL<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/travel-channel-readies-new-paranormal-series\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Travel Channel Readies New Paranormal Series - TVREAL\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Travel Channel is set to launch a new paranormal series starring Adam Ellis, the Twitter author of the #DearDavid ghost stories.\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/travel-channel-readies-new-paranormal-series\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"TVREAL\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2019-11-14T15:13:05+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2017\/07\/Paul-Bradford-Adam-Ellis-Jen-Lewis-Trending-Fear-Travel-Channel-1119.jpg\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:width\" content=\"368\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:height\" content=\"207\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:type\" content=\"image\/jpeg\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"Alison Skilton\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:label1\" content=\"Written by\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data1\" content=\"Alison Skilton\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:label2\" content=\"Est. reading time\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data2\" content=\"2 minutes\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"WebPage\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/travel-channel-readies-new-paranormal-series\/\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/travel-channel-readies-new-paranormal-series\/\",\"name\":\"Travel Channel Readies New Paranormal Series - TVREAL\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/#website\"},\"datePublished\":\"2019-11-14T15:13:05+00:00\",\"dateModified\":\"2019-11-14T15:13:05+00:00\",\"author\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/#\/schema\/person\/f590d4d1481b8cce2a066e89197c7550\"},\"breadcrumb\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/travel-channel-readies-new-paranormal-series\/#breadcrumb\"},\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"ReadAction\",\"target\":[\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/travel-channel-readies-new-paranormal-series\/\"]}]},{\"@type\":\"BreadcrumbList\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/travel-channel-readies-new-paranormal-series\/#breadcrumb\",\"itemListElement\":[{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":1,\"name\":\"Home\",\"item\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/\"},{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":2,\"name\":\"Travel Channel Readies New Paranormal Series\"}]},{\"@type\":\"WebSite\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/#website\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/\",\"name\":\"TVREAL\",\"description\":\"\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"SearchAction\",\"target\":{\"@type\":\"EntryPoint\",\"urlTemplate\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/?s={search_term_string}\"},\"query-input\":\"required name=search_term_string\"}],\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\"},{\"@type\":\"Person\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/#\/schema\/person\/f590d4d1481b8cce2a066e89197c7550\",\"name\":\"Alison Skilton\",\"description\":\"Alison Skilton is an associate editor of World Screen.
