The first ghost Jason King ever saw was his brother's. And when the spectre told Jason that he needed to find their estranged father, who disappeared during their childhood, his life was changed forever.
When documentarian Ben Lawrence reads an article about Jason, now a western Sydney security guard and part-time ghost hunter, he embarks on a seven year journey into a gothic world of suburban graveyards and broken souls.
Paranormal activity, a family's terrible forgotten secret and a police investigation converge in Ghosthunter, a part family memoir and part true crime podcast. Years of self-reflection and estranged characters from the past bring Jason and Ben to a confronting conclusion - that sometimes the most terrifying ghosts are the ones we find within ourselves.

I was engrossed by this podcast. It turned out to be a bit different than I was expecting. The ghosts in this podcast are the memories, events and people that haunt and shape our lives. Ben has innocent intentions when he arranges to meet Jason, he's fascinated by his work as a Ghosthunter and wants to make a documentary about him. Ben has no idea what he will uncover. The podcasts look at terrible secrets, child abuse and a police investigation. The more Ben uncovers the more he wishes he'd left it all well alone. Especially when he starts to get some insight into what kind of a person Jason is and wonders if he's been duped.
