Plot Synopsis

Using re-enactments and first-person interviews with the victims and their loved ones, WHEN GHOSTS ATTACK chronicles how ghosts break the bounds of the spirit world to make violent physical contact with the living. This one-hour series also reveals what went through the victims' minds as their experiences escalated from threatening whispers and dark omens to scratches, shoves, and the anguish of having to live alongside their invisible enemy. Each 60-minute episode features two or three stories, including tales from: Lori Settle, a newly remarried mother in Fayetteville, WV, whose every move seems to be overshadowed by a macabre presence following her around the house; Marsha Eden, a mother with two daughters, who are living in central New Jersey across from a creepy, abandoned mill, where strange voices heard in the dead of night in their apartment turn into eerie encounters that the family fears they won't survive; Joy Stinson, living in Mt. Hermon, LA, with her husband and three daughters, who visits a haunted plantation and then has wicked forces befall her home, turning it into a haven of demonic possession and brutal attacks; Jules Ness, a newlywed in Lennox, SD, who is offered a 100-year-old Victorian home for next to nothing and then encounters a diabolical entity seeking revenge for the home's violent past; Keith Dovichi, living in Pioneer, CA, with his daughter and granddaughter, who encounter an enraged presence making it clear the new family is unwanted; war veteran Chan Greer, settling down in Cullman, AL, who is terrorized by spine-chilling noises and glimpses of gruesome shadows before his girlfriend is attacked; a family in Frederick MD, who fear their home's vicious spirits will kill them after the house's macabre presence violently threatens a priest; Brian Schiff, who discovered an eerie, abandoned house in Gloucester, VA, with three friends and were not prepared for the terrifying attack that plagues them; owners of an estate in Winchester, VA, who fear for their safety after a ghost investigator experiences a violent encounter; and many more people who have violent encounters with the supernatural.
