Watch WHEN GHOSTS ATTACK, if you dare.

In the eight-episode first season of WHEN GHOSTS ATTACK, travel to the dark side of the paranormal world, where poltergeist activity - like objects moving on their own - is child's play compared to the torment of a malevolent demon. Told from the first-person perspective of the victims and their loved ones, each episode uncovers multiple ghostly attacks. Hear first-hand what went through the victim's mind as their experience escalated from threatening whispers and dark omens to scratches, shoves, and the anguish of having to live alongside their invisible enemy. When Ghosts Attack premieres tonight, October 20 at 10 PM E/P, following the season finale of A Haunting at 9 PM E/P.

"You might think you know the makings of a scary story - rattling chains and bumps in the night - but these aren't your average campfire tales," said Marc Etkind, general manager of Destination America. "WHEN GHOSTS ATTACK is like nothing you've ever seen, Revealing shocking evidence and first-person testimony that ghosts don't just go 'boo!' but can actually break the bounds of the spirit world to make violent physical contact with the living."
