In season 8, episode 13 of Ghost Adventures titled "Battle of Perryville: Field Hospitals," the team travels to Perryville, Kentucky to investigate the site of a historic Civil War battle that took place in 1862. The battle was fought between the Union and Confederate troops and was considered one of the bloodiest battles of the war.
The Ghost Adventures team begins their investigation by exploring the field where the battle took place. They use historical records and interviews with locals to piece together the events that unfolded during the battle. The team is also assisted by local paranormal investigators who have conducted previous investigations at the site.
As they explore the field, the team discovers several areas where field hospitals were set up to treat wounded soldiers. These areas were known for their high mortality rates due to the lack of medical knowledge and supplies during that time. The team investigates these areas in depth and uses their equipment to try to capture evidence of paranormal activity.
Throughout the investigation, the team experiences several unexplainable occurrences. They hear footsteps and voices coming from empty rooms, doors open and close on their own, and they capture strange anomalies on their cameras. They also conduct a unique experiment where they recreate the sounds of the battle using Civil War-era weapons and equipment. This experiment generates some of the most compelling evidence of paranormal activity at the field hospitals.
In addition to their investigation of the field hospitals, the team also explores a nearby building known as the Dye House. This building served as a storage facility for ammunition during the Civil War and was also used to store bodies of soldiers who had died in battle. The team investigates the building and captures several pieces of evidence, including a shadow figure and unexplained noises.
As the investigation comes to a close, the team reflects on their experience at the site and the history of the battle. They discuss how their investigation has shed light on the tragic events that took place and how they hope to continue to bring awareness to the paranormal activity at the site.
Overall, season 8, episode 13 of Ghost Adventures provides a fascinating look at the history of the Battle of Perryville and the paranormal activity that continues to haunt the site.
