Dead Famous - Ghostly Encounters is a television series that searches for the ghosts of the famous dead. Cynical but curious Gail Porter and sensitiveChris Fleming take a spirited road trip through America looking for the ghostly locations where legends of stage, screen and music reside. Described by the channel as "like a sharper, sexier and funnier Mulder and Scully", the duo visit places where, it is claimed, celebrity spirits roam ? their hotel rooms, diners, gardens, film lots and theatres.
In each episode, the show visits three locations that have some link or connection to the dead celebrity, although some of these connections, seem nebulous, at best. All of the locations are researched for their historical connection and presented in a factual way.
The show was produced by Twofour[2] for broadcast on LivingTV but because of its popularity, it can be seen in many countries and is currently seen on the Biography Channel.
Both Series 1 & Series 2 are available on DVD, there is no news on when series 3 will be released.
