Moon River Brewing Company


This episode finds our stalwart adventurers trekking to the deep south to investigate the Moon River Brewing Company in beautiful old historic Savannah, Georgia.


Here's the episode info from friend Ben, at the Travel Channel.


This week the GA crew is locking down at the Moon River Brewing Company in Savannah, arguably one of the most haunted cities in the country. Below are episode details and a preview video I wanted to share with you.

The Moon River Brewery Company occupies the building where the first hotel in Savannah, Georgia, once stood. The City Hotel was an upscale establishment, however the affluent clientele occasionally resorted to violence defending their Southern honor. Since the Moon River Brewery opening, the staff and customers have encountered many unexplained, and sometimes violent, occurrences. Accounts include bottles being thrown by unseen forces and people being touched, pushed, and slapped by invisible spirits. One prominent ghostly figure is "Toby," who lurks in the bar's billiard room where he has been known to push patrons and staff.

Also, a glowing white apparition has reportedly been seen on the restaurant's upper floors and is believed to be the spirit of a hotel worker who died there in the late 1800s.

More to come after I see the episode...

Wow. Ok, so I just watched the episode and it was so good that I watched it again when the Travel Channel reran it an hour later. There are some things that I just can't figure out.

The word-database thingy (yes, I'm sure that was the technical name for it, lol) was a really cool piece of technology that they brought into this investigation and it had some really interesting hits. The guys were asking questions and seemingly, the device was giving them clear answers that actually made good contextual sense. In one instance, Zak leaned a ladder up against the wall and announced that he was going to begin some renovations.The device then said the words "remove" and "step." The guys asked what would happen if they didn't remove the step, and the device said "yell." Just a bit later there was, indeed, the sound of an angry yell. Could this have all been coincidence? Yes. Could it have been a true anomaly. Yes.

There were so many disembodies sounds in this episode that I won't really try to focus on them. Instead, I'll get to the incidents that I found pretty darn creepy.

At one point, Aaron was filming Nick and Zak when he caught what appeared to be a small light that collided with Nick's head and immediately disappeared. To be truthful, it really looked like it pierced Nick's skull. Right around that time, both Zak and Nick complained of extreme pressure and even pain on their heads. Right after all this happened, Nick, again being filmed by Aaron, began to sway a bit on his feet. It was a very slight movement and nothing was said about it at that moment. I believe it's probably safe to say that it was so slight a movement that Aaron never saw it until the evidence review. Just after all this Nick became downright creepy. His whole countenance and demeanor changed. When Nick raised his head and looked at Zak, the look on Nick's face was pure menace, so much so that Zak actually freaked and jumped away from him.

There was so much interesting evidence that to make sense of all of it, the guys took the footage to another independent ghost hunting team to get their impressions. It was during this session that Nick revealed the chilling thoughts that had been running through his head while he was glaring a hole through Zak. It was completely unnerving and if you want to know what it was you'll have to watch the episode.
