Traditional TV series have faced a number of production complications due to the coronavirus pandemic, but with supernatural investigation series often seeing investigators exploring locations in the wee hours of the night, Travel Channel's Kindred Spirits has been able to move forward with exciting new explorations, with a new season set to kick off in January. Amy Bruni, Adam Berry, and psychic medium Chip Coffey will all be using the tools at their disposal in hopes of communicating with the beyond in a variety of new locales. Check out the season premiere of Kindred Spirits on the Travel Channel on Saturday, January 2, 2021 at 10 p.m. ET.

Per press release, "Investigating America's rich haunted history, Bruni, Berry, and Coffey dig deep into the past to identify the restless spirits haunting the country's oldest inns, homes, and estates. Utilizing a range of tools and techniques, their multilayered investigations tackle frightening tales of possession, aggressive entities, and even an eerie, centuries-old mystery involving a murder conviction based on the 'testimony' of a ghost. Together, the team elicit shocking evidence and connections with the other side that lead them closer to the truth, as they search for answers behind each haunted tale."

"Amy, Adam, and Chip are always challenging themselves and this season is no exception," Matthew Butler, general manager, Travel Channel, shared in a statement. "The history in these locations is downright creepy and scary – their return to the John Proctor House in Salem is especially exciting as they revisit the mysterious activity exhumed during their memorable investigation of the building during our 'Haunted Salem Live' special."

In the season premiere, "Devil in Salem," Amy Bruni, Adam Berry, and psychic medium Chip Coffey travel to Salem, Massachusetts, to investigate the home of John Proctor – one of the men executed during the infamous witch trials. It's not the team's first time at this renowned location having visited once before during a special Travel Channel event that was broadcast live. During the event, they opened a gateway to the dead using powerful magic, which allowed them to communicate with spirits from the 1692 Salem Witch Trials. Now, the team returns to Salem to launch a full-fledged investigation and learn more about the gateway they previously opened … and who came out of it.
