Queer Ghost Hunters (Stu Maddux, 2016-) in an independently-produced YouTube web series in which queer paranormal investigators set out to contact queer ghosts of the past.
The show stages an intervention within the paranormal reality television genre, critiquing the lack of queer content in popular shows such as Ghost Hunters.
Despite the routine investigations of prisons and mental asylums, sites that have historically functioned to oppress queer people, queer ghosts are not sought after in mainstream paranormal reality TV, thereby rendering queer history and injustice invisible.
Queer Ghost Hunters aims to rectify this invisibility by attempting to contact queer ghosts and revealing the presence of lost pasts.
This article argues that Queer Ghost Hunters employs the seance as a queered historiographical methodology that emphasizes the haunted presence of absent histories. The show rejects the technophilic masculinity on display in shows like Ghost Hunters in favour of an affective encounter with the spectral.
In so doing, Queer Ghost Hunters resists a linear conception of time as progress, linking the temporal economies of the ghost and the queer—each rejecting the stability of linear, sequential progression in favour of an itinerant flow infused by a simultaneity of past, present, and future.

Next Up - The Queer Ghost Busters movie sequel.
We have already had to watch the Female Ghost Busters so Queer Ghost Busters only makes sense as next in line .
Best hook line for a motion picture trailer in Hollywood history - “ The Queer Ghost Busters - we bust ass on ghosts”
If Bill Murray is still alive we can cast him as Professor Wankeman.
It's just too perfect - I see solid gold with major franchise possibilities.
Never ask him about his “relationships”
😆🤣
Especially the ones with kids.
Try to contact dead spirits is a violation of the First Commandment and fraught with danger. If one tries to make contact with spirits who exercised perversion when alive, I shudder to think what they bring with them.
Bart and Lisa: “Dad, we did something very bad!”
Homer: “Did you wreck the car?”
Bart and Lisa: “No.”
Homer: “Did you raise the dead?”
Bart and Lisa: “Yes.”
Homer: “But the car’s okay?”
Bart and Lisa: “Uh-huh.”
Homer: “All right then.”
God knows what they are doing under the sheets.

I sure hope these folks enjoy the demonic entities that they’re about to encounter
😱😳🤯😲🙀
Actually, Ghost Brothers is pretty good, consisting of a group of black friends who go ghost hunting.
It’s just a bunch of nonsense designed to sound smart.
Like the American patriot ghost on Ghost. He loves the British ghost.
