If you were a fan of this year’s “Ghostober” hits “The Haunted Museum” from Zak Bagans and Eli Roth and “Eli Roth Presents: A Ghost Ruined My Life,” you’ll be excited to know that Travel Channel and discovery+ have greenlit seconds seasons of both horror anthology series. Both series debuted to much success on discovery+ this past October during the streamer’s big “Ghostober” programming event. “The Haunted Museum,” a scripted series produced by renowned filmmaker Eli Roth and in conjunction with “Ghost Adventures” star Zak Bagans, and “Eli Roth Presents: A Ghost Ruined My Life,” also produced by Roth, are slated to launch new seasons next year on discovery+. The finales for both shows dropped this past weekend on the streaming platform.

“We’re thrilled to announce that Zak Bagans and Eli Roth will be creating more incredible cinematic content for our horror-loving audience,” said Matthew Butler, general manager, Travel Channel & Paranormal Streaming Content. “Viewers are mesmerized by the scripted and real-life haunted horror stories that each of these series delivers. Zak and Eli are brilliant storytellers and masterminds at evoking true terror. These are the scariest horror anthology series we’ve ever created, and we can’t wait to get back into production.”

“The Haunted Museum” is a scripted horror film anthology series produced by Zak Bagans in collaboration with filmmaker Eli Roth that presents frightening and hellish tales inspired by the spooky relics on display in Zak Bagans’ Las Vegas museum. Opening his museum vaults, Bagans, a devoted collector of the macabre, shares the secrets and stories behind a curated selection of his most prized haunted items through scripted film shorts produced by Roth and his accredited team, and with featured commentary from Bagans.

“Eli Roth Presents: A Ghost Ruined My Life” shares the shocking stories of real-life hauntings that have left emotional (and sometimes physical) scars on those unlucky enough to have experienced them. Equal parts terrifying and evocative, each episode exposes viewers to the stories of survivors who have been dragged through hell and back and now struggle to rebuild their shattered lives.

In an Instagram post announcing the season two news, Eli Roth shared, “We have so many more stories to tell from Zak’s museum and we have heard from numerous people who are stalked by ghosts and we are going through those now to choose them for the episodes.”

Season One of both series are available to stream now on discovery+.
