Residual

A ghost-hunting show that never aired. Twenty nights, one building each, one camera operator, and tapes that remember who walked them.

▸ BeginTwenty nights · four seasons

Ghosts here only notice movement. Film the evidence, then get back out — past the ghosts your own filming left behind.

Four seasons, never broadcast

Twenty episodes, one building each, shot in the dark. None of the layouts are shown to you before you're in them.

Season oneThe rules: what moves gets caught
Season twoA new kind of find — stains
Season threeContact finds, and a ghost that splits
Season fourLast frames, and something that follows

How a night goes

Movement

Only what moves gets caught. Standing perfectly still is often the right answer, and the hardest one.

Filming

Footage is what you're paid for. Shooting it pulls them toward you, and leaves a ghost walking the route you just walked.

The buildings

Twenty nights in nineteen buildings, one of them twice, none of them shown to you beforehand.
