Travel Channel’s Destination Fear kicks off its fourth season with a visit to Cresson Sanatorium in Cresson, Pennsylvania. The team will be splitting up to investigate the huge property, and just to make things even more creepy they’ll be doing it without their flashlights.
Season four premieres on Friday, November 25, 2022 at 9pm on Travel Channel (and streaming on discovery+). The eight-episode season will find paranormal investigators Dakota Laden, Chelsea Laden, Tanner Wiseman, and Alex Schroeder traveling to haunted locations including the Winchester Mystery House, Norwich State Hospital, Ashmore Estates, and Defiance High School in Ohio.
Travel Channel offered the following description of the new season:
“After experiencing hauntings in Europe last season, the likes of which they’ve never seen at home, Dakota is now taking things to an even darker level – literally. Not only is he challenging the team with darker hauntings and locations, but he shocks them with the most disturbing experiment yet: removing flashlights from their armor and forcing them to blindly face the shadows of the night in true darkness. It’s the first of many twisted and unnerving new experiments that will test their paranormal theories from the most uncomfortable of situations.”
