Ghost Adventures

Forget Chucky, Annabelle and even M3GAN ... Zak Bagans' Haunted Museum is home to a doll apparently so possessed, a man passed out cold after coming face to face with it.

The "Ghost Adventures" star tells TMZ that upon looking into the eyes of Lilly the doll -- during a recent visit to the museum -- the man fainted and bashed his head on the display stand -- and we've got the chilling moment on camera.

Zak says the man received medical attention after regaining consciousness and was OK -- although, disturbingly, he wouldn't speak to anyone afterward, let alone even look at any of the museum staff.

The man promptly fled the museum and has not returned since.

An Oregon-based antiques dealer first found Lilly under an old steamer trunk -- and took it back to his store where he immediately began having nightmares about a little girl dying a violent death.

Later, when a young girl visited the store, she told her mother she had a convo with "the girl inside of Lilly, who said she died in a scary way."

Zak traveled to the shop to investigate ... and when the woman working behind the counter took Lilly down from the shelf, she immediately doubled over with abdominal pain ... chanting, "I must wash my hands" repeatedly.

Una nueva pesadilla de navidad ha llegado al Museo Embrujado de Zak Bagans en Sin City, donde acaba de inaugurar un traje de Santa que una vez usó un infame asesino en serie.

La estrella de "Ghost Adventures" le dice a TMZ que el traje usado por John Edward Robinson -un asesino en serie convicto, estafador, malversador, secuestrador y falsificador- estará en exhibición durante las fiestas en su museo.

El traje de Papá Noel era el que Robinson llevaba a las fiestas infantiles, a los actos de los scouts y a otras funciones similares. Zak compró el disfraz hace unos años y procedía de la herencia de John.

Pero incluso Zak está asustado por su nueva posesión ... mostrando su traje asesinos en serie dentro de su museo "Jail Room" - construido a partir de barras reales disembled de una prisión de Iowa. Él dice que cualquier cosa que pertenezca a estos monstruos malvados debe estar detrás de las rejas donde pertenecen.

Robinson era de hecho pura maldad ... después de haber sido declarado culpable en 2003 de 3 asesinatos en Kansas City y recibir la pena de muerte por 2 de ellos. También admitió la responsabilidad de 5 homicidios adicionales ... con los investigadores temiendo que podría haber otras víctimas por descubrir.

Sus crímenes fueron particularmente escalofriantes, ya que contactó a la mayoría de sus víctimas a través de chats en línea de temática BDSM (sexo alternativo), a menudo con el nombre de "Slavemaster".

Zak Bagans is exercising his right to scare the crap out of folks at his Haunted Museum ... by bringing in some creepy-ass artifacts from famous exorcisms!!!

The "Ghost Adventures" star tells TMZ ... he recently got his hands on the fabled "Exorcism Box," which was used during the 1970s real-life exorcisms of Anneliese Michel ... whose story is the inspiration behind 2005's "The Exorcism of Emily Rose."

Zak tells us he got the box from filmmaker Christopher Saint Booth, who wanted to get rid of it after a disturbing experience, to put it mildly. While he had the box, Booth says he felt something growing inside him, and a doctor determined the growth contained teeth and stem cells.

Booth says he had an archbishop exorcise the box ... and while doing so, he saw a dark figure dart past him. Booth believes it was Anneliese, who died way back in 1976 following 67 catholic exorcism rites.

Zak says Booth told him the archbishop saw the figure too, which appeared to have Anneliese's face, and it was shaking uncontrollably as if being pushed away from the box by a dark energy. Booth believes the "Exorcism Box" absorbed all the energy from Anneliese's exorcisms.

If that doesn't give you enough chills ... Zak also obtained a copy of the infamous Exorcist Diary, which inspired the 1974 movie "The Exorcist."

There are only 6 copies of the diary, 2 of which remain in a vault at the Vatican. The diary documents a 3-month period of exorcisms on a 13-year-old boy in St. Louis way back in 1949 and includes a map of Hell.

Zak says Booth had the diary while working on a documentary called "The Exorcist File" ... and Booth says he felt very oppressed and suicidal whenever the diary was nearby.

And, get this ... Zak says Booth told him he had the diary with him in a hotel room when he saw a horned, shadowy figure appear just before something scratched his ankle and pulled him out of bed. 😱

Since bringing the items to his Haunted Museum in Las Vegas, Zak says countless guests are refusing to enter the new Exorcism Room Exhibit before they even know what's inside ... with some saying they felt light-headed.

Zak is not new to the exorcism world -- he filmed the 100th episode of "Ghost Adventures" in the house where the notorious St. Louis exorcism was performed.

It's a timely acquisition for Zak with Halloween lurking, and "The Exorcist: Believer" just hitting theaters.

Zak Bagans está ejerciendo su derecho a asustar a la gente en su Museo Embrujado, ¡¡¡trayendo algunos famosos artefactos para practicar exorcismos a su colección!!!

La estrella de "Ghost Adventures" le dice a TMZ que recientemente adquirió una "caja de exorcismo" que se utilizó en los exorcismos de Annalise Michel en los infames años 70, y cuya historia inspiró la película "El exorcismo de Emily Rose".

Zak nos dijo que consiguió la caja del cineasta Christopher Saint Booth, quien quería deshacerse de ella después de una experiencia perturbadora.

Booth dice que mientras tenía la caja consigo sintió que algo raro crecía dentro de él y un médico determinó que ese crecimiento contenía dientes y células madre. Luego le pidió a un arzobispo que la exorcizara, y al hacerlo, vio pasar a una figura oscura que cree era de Annalise, quien murió en 1976 después de 67 ritos de exorcismo católico.

Booth le dijo a Zak que el arzobispo también vio a la figura sacudiéndose incontrolablemente, como si una energía oscura la empujara fuera de la caja. Booth cree que la "caja del exorcismo" absorbió toda la energía de los exorcismos de Annalise.

Zak también nos cuenta que obtuvo una copia del infame Diario del Exorcista, que inspiró la película de 1974, "El Exorcista."

Solo hay seis copias de los diarios, dos de los cuales permanecen en una bóveda en el Vaticano y documenta un período de 3 meses de exorcismos a un niño de 13 años en St. Louis allá por 1949, que también incluye un mapa del infierno.

Zak dice que Booth tuvo el diario mientras trabajaba en un documental llamado "The Exorcist File", y que se sentía muy oprimido y suicida cuando estaba cerca de él.

Y escuchen esto... Booth le dijo que tenía el diario consigo en un hotel cuando vio aparecer una sombra con cuernos, justo antes de ser arañado en el tobillo y sacado de la cama.

Desde que trajo los objetos a su Museo Embrujado de Las Vegas, Zak dice que innumerables visitantes se niegan a entrar en la nueva exposición de la Sala de Exorcismos, antes incluso de saber lo que hay dentro. Algunos dicen haber sido tocados o haberse sentido mareados.

Zak no es nuevo en el mundo del exorcismo. Él fue quien filmó el episodio 100 de "Ghost Adventures" en la casa donde se realizó el famoso exorcismo de St. Louis.

Adele expresó su curiosidad este fin de semana sobre el museo embrujado de Zak Bagans en el desierto y el tipo la escuchó alto y claro y !la está invitando!

La estrella de "Ghost Adventures"  —famoso por estar obsesionado con todo lo paranormal— se enteró de que Adele estuvo hablando con los miembros de la audiencia acerca de su Museo Embrujado en Las Vegas durante uno de sus recientes espectáculos y él está encantado con su aparente curiosidad.

Adele estaba charlando con un invitado en su concierto y este le preguntó por cosas interesante que hacer en la Ciudad del Pecado. Sonaba muy interesada cuando mencionaron la atracción turística y espeluznante de Zak.

El museo ha estado en posesión de Zak durante bastante tiempo y tiene una gran colección de artefactos que supuestamente están embrujados. También hay un montón de historia sombría en el edificio en sí. El museo ha sido el tema principal de un capitulo de su show.

Zak nos comentó que está invitando personalmente a Adele a ir a su establecimiento para una visita VIP gratuita, y no sólo eso, también puede ser parte de una sesión de espiritismo personal si así lo desea.

Él dice que estaría dispuesto a conseguir a la conocida psíquica y medium Patti Negri para la ocasión.

Ahora, tan loco como suena, Adele ha lidiado con la tragedia personal en los últimos años, incluyendo la muerte de su padre en 2021 y el reciente fallecimiento de la madre de su mejor amiga. Es de suponer que podría intentar ponerse en contacto con estas personas.

Quiera o no, la oferta de Zak está ahí y ella está prácticamente al lado así que ¿por qué no?

Adele expressed curiosity this weekend about Zak Bagans' haunted museum in the desert -- and the guy heard her loud and clear, 'cause he wants her to swing by for a scream or two ... on the house!

The "Ghost Adventures" star, who's famously obsessed with all things paranormal, caught wind of Adele talking to audience members about his Vegas-area Haunted Museum during one of her recent residency shows ... and he's thrilled about her curiosity.

ICYMI ... Adele was chatting up a guest at her concert, asking what they like to do in Sin City, and sounded awfully interested when they mentioned ZB's spooky tourist attraction.

Zak's museum features a crazy big collection of artifacts that are purported to be haunted. There's also a lot of grim history with the building itself, and the museum's been the subject of one of his shows.

Anyway, Zak tells TMZ he's personally inviting Adele to come to his establishment for a free VIP tour -- and, not just that, she can take him up on a personal séance too if she's so inclined.

He says he'd be willing to get well-known psychic/medium Patti Negri to lead it -- as PN is well-versed in this field.

Now, as kooky as that sounds ... Adele has actually dealt with personal tragedy in recent years -- including the death of her estranged father in 2021 and the recent passing of her BFF's mother. Presumably, she could try to contact these individuals ... if not others.

Whether she wants that or not, Zak's offer is out there now. And, she's practically right next door -- so why not take him up on it?

Sharon Osbourne suffered a terrifying medical emergency while shooting a TV show in California ... TMZ has learned.

Sources with direct knowledge tell us it all went down Friday night ... Sharon fell ill on the set of the unnamed show at the Glen Tavern Inn in Santa Paula, California. It was not clear if the cameras were rolling. The hotel was once featured on an episode of the Travel Channel's "Ghost Adventurers."

A rep for the Ventura County Fire Department tells TMZ ... EMS workers responded to a "medical call" at Tavern around 6:30 PM Friday and transported one patient to Santa Paula Hospital. Santa Paula Police Chief Don Aguilar confirmed Sharon was the patient.

We reached out to Glen Tavern and a manager said there was an "emergency," but he declined to provide details. We do not know Sharon's current condition.

Sharon has hit a rough patch lately. As you know, she's been taking care of her husband -- rock 'n roll legend Ozzy Osbourne -- who is suffering from Parkinson's disease and other health issues.

The folks at "Ghost Adventures" are kicking things up a notch for spooky season -- we've got an exclusive clip of the moment a "ghost chair" seemingly appears and then disappears.

The apparent finding comes in a two-part episode about the abandoned and infamous Los Feliz Murder House, where Dr. Harold Perelson murdered his wife in 1959 with a ball-peen hammer and severely beat his daughter before killing himself.

The equipment the 'GA' crew used in the creepy mansion makes it all the more fascinating.

Zak Bagans tells TMZ the ghost chair was captured during a moment where chairs were the focus of an experiment -- "Everybody had a chair that was set on different floors of the house, and we connected everybody’s energy together using these chairs in a summoning experiment."

His take on what you're seeing here is, "It’s as if Dr. Perelson, who we called upon, literally pulled up a chair himself to join our experiment."

They used a method called LiDAR which uses a laser to scan objects or surfaces, by measuring the time it takes for the reflected light to bounce back ... basically, 3-D laser scanning.

The chair seemed to appear and then disappear on the laser scan, despite there being no seat in the actual scanned room.

The hunters stress the fact that the equipment is down to the "millimeter in accuracy" of scanning actual objects ... which makes said ghost chair like nothing they've ever seen before.

Zak says "This is one of the most astounding pieces of scientific evidence we have ever captured in the history of 'Ghost Adventures,' made even stronger due to the fact that it was captured by an accredited third-party LiDAR scanning company."

Zak Bagans' Haunted Museum attracts all kinds of strange activity, like this car that came barreling through the gates before plowing into a security guard's car ... and it's on video.

The scary incident went down last week on a rainy night in Las Vegas, and you see a car traveling on the wrong side of the road come smashing through the museum's outer fence.

The car is moving at a pretty fast clip when it smacks into security's parked car, and the impact sends the parked car flying into a museum sign, causing even more damage.

The back-to-back crashes don't seem to slow the car at all ... the driver zooms off into the night almost as if nothing happened.

According to the police report, the driver lost control of the car in rainy conditions as it crashed through the gate ... and the security guard inside the parked car was rushed to a hospital. We're told the security guard luckily only suffered minor injuries and is on the mend.

Vanilla Ice walked into Zak Bagans' famed Haunted Museum a total skeptic ... and he walked out a believer after a bone-chilling encounter with a ghost!!!

The "Ghost Adventures" star tells TMZ ... Vanilla Ice hit up his Haunted Museum in Las Vegas last month, and FREAKED OUT when something blew on his neck! The spooky sensation went down inside a room containing 2 real human skeletons.

Check out the video of Vanilla's first experience with paranormal activity ... you see him sitting on a chair in the Odd Fellows room when he suddenly jumps out of his seat! Vanilla is clearly alarmed, so it's no wonder he told Zak he's never going back in that room.

The Odd Fellows room houses 2 skeletons in their original coffins, which were once used in very old, very bizarre Odd Fellows rituals. Their identities are unknown, but Zak says the remains were part of initiation rituals bringing recruits face-to-face with their own mortality. Scary stuff, for sure.

The haunted box that seemed to curse Post Malone is about to see the light of day on Halloween, 'cause its new owner wants to take a peek inside ... but on one condition.

"Ghost Adventures" star Zak Bagans tells TMZ he plans on opening the dybbuk box in his Haunted Museum Wednesday night, and he'll be doing it live on his show. As crazy as that sounds, it's even worse when you hear what Zak's been going through lately.

He tells us he's been getting ominous signs left and right leading up to the event that would make even Damien Thorn shake. It's pretty freaky sh*t -- stuff like dreams about people and animals being killed, calls from an unknown number telling him people will die ... and illness plaguing him for the past few weeks.

Remember ... this is the same box that supposedly put Post Malone's life in danger these past few months after he was in the same room with Zak, who ended up touching the thing. Post didn't touch it himself, but he did touch Zak's shoulder ... and Zak says that's enough to trigger a curse.

There is an upside, though, that hopefully keeps Zak from prying this devil box open. He tells us he'll only do it if he does NOT feel the same supernatural sensation he and Post felt in the room this summer.

Considering this box has made people pass out on sight -- like this poor woman here -- we're guessing he'll feel something. BTW ... we're told this lady collapsed after coming into the same room with the box just a week after Post visited. She had to be taken to the ER.

This is creepy, even for Charles Manson -- the hospital gown the notorious murderer was wearing when he died, along with the coroner's toe tag and ALL of his bone fragments are headed to Zak Bagans' Haunted Museum ... a score he's calling the motherload of all motherloads.

The “Ghost Adventures” star tells TMZ ... Manson's grandson, Jason Freeman, gave Zak all of the items this week. They'll be front-and-center at his Vegas Haunted Museum ... which already features Manson's chompers and two paintings -- one that has his urine and another his ashes.

However, the latest cache takes the cake. Manson's hospital gown contains his body fluids ... same goes for the sheet that was draped over Manson's body while it lay in the morgue.

But, that's not all ... how about the electrodes taken off Manson's body after he died, along with his hospital bracelet? Then there are bone fragments ... we're told Freeman scraped the bones from the incinerator after Manson's body was burnt to a crisp. Zak tells us, "This is probably the most powerful possession I now own at my museum."

As for why Freeman donated the items ... Zak tells us Freeman said holding on to them at his home triggered paranormal activity, like weird noises. And then, there's this ... Zak says Freeman told him one day while pulling into his driveway he got a call on his cell from his home phone.

Post Malone should consider hopping on the Travel Channel's payroll as a ghost hunter if he gets tired of music, 'cause he's got the gift ... so says Zak Bagans.

The "Ghost Adventures" host tells TMZ ... Post recently joined him for an episode that's set to air later this week -- and he says the rapper's a natural at the craft.

Zak says he asked Post to do the guest spot last year, and they taped it in November at a haunted slaughterhouse in Tuscon. He gives props to Post -- a longtime 'GA' fan -- for taking the assignment seriously, and handling it like a pro.

The only possible exception came when Post said he felt a pair of hands wrap around his neck ... and completely freaked.

"Ghost Adventures" host Zak Bagans has taken on his most terrifying project yet -- he just bought a house in Indiana ... believed to be the site of one of the most terrifying demonic possessions ever ... a rumored "portal to hell."

The house rose to fame in 2012 ... after a mother who lived there reported her 12-year-old daughter and 9-year-old son had been possessed. Shockingly, there are even docs from child protective services that back up her claims.

Among the many scary incidents ... the mother says she witnessed her daughter levitating above her bed.

She also said she saw her son walking on their ceiling ... an account corroborated by several other witnesses. The mother did everything she could to de-demonize the house -- including building an altar and hiring an exorcist -- but nothing worked and she eventually moved.

Zak tells us, he caught wind of the horrifying tale and made an offer to purchase the home for $35,000 -- the owner was all too willing to sell.

The photo shown above is an actual police photo of the house ... and it's hard to miss what looks like an apparition in the window.

Zak says he's going to live there and document his experience -- "If it's true this home is a portal to hell, then I want to go there and see what happens."

Balls of steel.

Check out the CPS report (below) ... detailing the family's frightening claims.

Never bring your work home with you -- especially if your job involves ghost-hunting and human skulls -- because you could end up with one pissed-off spirit haunting your house ... and pushing your friends down stairs.

"Ghost Adventures" star Zak Bagans tells TMZ, the supernatural encounters began after he found a human skull during an investigation last month at an old mining town hotel -- and genius actually decided to bring the remains home with him.

Zak -- who built a display for the skull in the basement of his Las Vegas home -- tells us, he noticed a huge surge in paranormal activity almost instantly ... an angry, demonic-type presence that had never been in his house before.

On one night, Zak tells us, he was woken up by a slight pressure on his ankles -- what felt like hands grabbing him -- and all of a sudden, the force yanked him several inches down in his bed.

Days later, Zak says he had a girl over at his house -- and out of nowhere, she spilled head over heels down his stairs ... insisting someone ... or something ... had pushed her.

But that's just the tip of the iceberg -- and Zak tells us, he's so terrified ... he hired a local bishop to perform an exorcism at his house in the next two weeks
