23: A Chat with Steve Shippy about "Haunting in the Heartland"

Published: Feb. 21, 2020, 12:04 a.m.

After a bit of an awkward start, I ended up having a great chat with Steve Shippy about his new series, Haunting in the Heartland. It premieres on Travel Channel Friday, February 21, 2020 at 10 p.m. ET/PT. 

(Awkward, by the way, on my part.)

When I finally got warmed up and could speak coherently, we talked about some of the places he went while investigating this season, including:

  1. Merrill, Michigan
  2. Greeneville, Tennessee
  3. Atchison, Kansas
  4. Malvern, Iowa

(But he also went to Hebron, Kentucky, and Holly Springs, Mississippi.)
He doesn't give away a lot of spoilers --well, he doesn't give away any spoilers. 

But he does share a few teasers, such as:

  • What his most memorable episode was
  • Why he would be okay never investigating the Sallie House again
  • What his main focus is for Haunting in the Heartland.

If you're familiar with his Haunted Saginaw series on Amazon, Steve says the format and --most importantly-- the heart and compassion from that series translates to a Haunting in the Heartland

So if you're a fan of his investigative style, rest easy. You'll be able to continue to enjoy it when Haunting in the Heartland premieres on Travel Channel on Friday, February 21, 2020 at 10 p.m. ET/PT.
