    Ghost Adventures filmed a Ripper-focused investigation in Whitechapel for Season 3, Episode 4, 'Jack the Ripper,' aired 30 October 2009. Investigators Zak Bagans and Aaron Goodwin conducted sessions at multiple Whitechapel locations associated with the canonical victims, including Buck's Row (Durward Street) and the Ten Bells pub. Bagans reported receiving an EVP at Durward Street that he characterised as an unintelligible male voice, and Goodwin reported a sudden temperature drop in the alleyway adjacent to the former site of 29 Hanbury Street. The episode also featured an interview with Ripper historian Paul Begg, author of 'Jack the Ripper: The Facts' (Robson Books, 2004), who discussed the cultural persistence of Ripper-site haunting claims without personally endorsing them. All claims are presented as investigator reports in a named television programme.
