As the brains behind Sightings, a series that investigates the paranormal, he's more interested in soundbytes than spirits. A young couple in High River, Kansas, Jeff and Pam Mason, contact the show - convinced the 19th century house they've moved into is haunted. With evidence of levitating toys, moving objects and Jeff's sinister visions, the Sightings crew move in. Derek senses a good story. Allen, his psychic sidekick, believes there is a young girl ghost in the house. Enlisting the help of Jamie Haines, paranormal investigator, the crew piece together its history and trace the original owners back to the last days of slavery. A disturbing theory emerges...supported by Jeff's dream-inspired sketches and the strange marking on his thigh. To confirm their theory, Jeff must put himself at the mercy of the ghostly presence. In their quest for "good TV," the Sightings crew unleash paranormal powers beyond their wildest imagination. For believers in the paranormal, Heartland Ghost is a gripping, insightful story of a young couple's struggle to face up to a shocking truth. And for any doubters out there, remember, this is based on a true story!
