It was alot of fun to do the show. I had known Jason (the real star of the show) a long time ago so when they were scheduling the show, my team and I were the one of the first episodes. If you have seen the show, Jason is truly one of the nicest guys I have met and is down to earth despite the fact of being a star.

Personally, I hate to label anything as being haunted or not. However we have had alot of interesting experiences in Battleship NC. I would say that I had at least a dozen visits to the ship and something weird happened about half of them.

LOL yeah not only were the stress of doing the show but also it does get hot in the lower decks. Especially in the part off the tour route where there is no air conditioning. It can get be like a giant hot box. If you go to the battleship, talk with Danny Bradshaw. He actually lives on the ship and is a nice guy and can tell lots of stories!

Despite of ours and all the other ones about it, the true star of the show was the ship in itself. It saw every major engagement in the pacific if WWII. It had 15 battle stars and more than a half dozen metals. It is a bad ***!
