Eric Mintel Investigates heads to the historic Shawnee Inn near the Delaware Water Gap of Pennsylvania, built in 1912 and steeped in over a century of mystery. Long rumored to be plagued by unexplained paranormal activity, ranging from shadow figures and glowing orbs to eerie phone calls with no one on the other end, the inn becomes the focus of an intense investigation. Lead investigator Eric Mintel is joined by spirit medium Dominic Sattele, along with Pocono Television executive in charge of production Chris Barrett and Pocono Television production coordinator Kate Kroll. As the team pushes deeper into the inn’s haunted past, their encounters go well beyond anything they have ever experienced before. 🏔 Plan your Pocono Mountains getaway: http://poconomountains.com
