Paranormal Challenge was a TV show that aired on Travel Channel in 2011, starring Zak Bagans, the lead investigator of Ghost Adventures. The show consists of two teams competing against each other in a paranormal investigation to find the best paranormal evidence. Each team consisted of three members, who were made up of paranormal investigators, psychics, or simply enthusiasts who had an interest in the paranormal.

The show was divided into two rounds, with the first round being a "lockdown" investigation. During this challenge, the teams would have to investigate a reportedly haunted location for a certain amount of time without any breaks. This would give the teams a chance to explore and familiarize themselves with the location, as well as search for paranormal evidence. The teams could use any tools and equipment they wanted during the investigation, including EMF detectors, thermal cameras, and spirit boxes.

After the lockdown investigation, the teams would then move on to the second round, which was the "investigation challenge." During this challenge, the teams would have a set amount of time to find the best possible paranormal evidence based on a specific theme or criteria established by Zak Bagans. The themes could vary per episode but usually revolved around finding specific types of evidence such as EVPs, apparitions, or orbs.

One of the most interesting things about Paranormal Challenge is that each episode would feature a different location that was considered to be haunted. This included places such as abandoned hospitals, prisons, and asylums. The show also made sure to highlight the history and lore behind each location, adding to the intrigue of the investigation.

Another aspect that made the show unique was the fact that it incorporated judges into the competition, who were known paranormal experts. They would evaluate the evidence found by each team and ultimately determine the winner of the challenge. This added an additional level of excitement and anticipation, as viewers were left wondering which team would come out on top.

Overall, Paranormal Challenge was a great show for anyone who has an interest in the paranormal. It blended history, suspense, and excitement all into one, and the competition aspect made it all the more engaging. For those who loved Ghost Adventures, this show was a definite must-watch, as it provided a new and refreshing take on paranormal investigations.
