Transylvania is a 2 hour Halloween special which aired during Season 8 of Ghost Adventures. The ancient Celts believed that Halloween was the time when the veil between the world of the living and world of the dead was at its thinnest. And for Zak, Nick and Aaron, it means it's a time for spirits to run free. Ghost Adventures spends this Halloween in Transylvania, a region in central Romania, on a quest to contact Dracula and the spirits associated with him. This 2-hour special features the guys' once-in-a-lifetime journey into the heart of Romania and the birthplace of Vlad Dracula, searching Targoviste Castle, Hoia-Baciu Forest and Hunedoara Castle for answers.
