Demonologist John Zaffis and his family investigate the sites of alleged paranormal occurrences.

Zaffis removes the items from the location and takes them to his haunted relics museum in a barn on his property in Stratford, Connecticut.
Broadcast
The programme broadcast on Syfy in the United States and Really in the United Kingdom.
Summary
According to Zaffis, an artifact itself may either be of a paranormal nature such as a religious object once used in occult rituals or a non-paranormal nature such as an antique purchased at an estate sale or garage sale. Once an artifact is deemed to be a possible source of paranormal activity, it is removed from the premises in hopes that the activity in the location being investigated will be mitigated or cease altogether. The artifact is then housed in John Zaffis' paranormal artifact museum.
