“A Ghost Ruined My Life” Discovery+ Release Date; When Does It Start?

What Is A Ghost Ruined My Life About?

From master of horror Eli Roth, A GHOST RUINED MY LIFE shares the shocking stories of hauntings that have left emotional (and sometimes physical) scars on those unlucky enough to have experienced them. Equal parts terrifying and evocative, every hour-long episode will expose viewers to the real-life stories of survivors who have been dragged through hell and back and now struggle to rebuild their shattered lives.

You may want to keep those lights on for ELI ROTH PRESENTS: A GHOST RUINED MY LIFE, a new series from the master of horror that features real-life ghost stories as told by the victims who came face-to-face with their demons and survived. Award-winning filmmaker Eli Roth has spent his whole life telling horror stories, but these may be the most terrifying yet. Launching with two episodes on Friday, October 8, exclusively on discovery+ during the streamer’s “Ghostober” event, the eight, one-hour episodes highlight the haunting untold stories of victims of the paranormal as they try to unpack the unexplainable causes of their emotional (and sometimes physical) trauma.

Taking an entirely new approach to storytelling, the series goes beyond the initial terrifying contact with the unknown. Every unique show aims to reveal the ravaged relationships, lost livelihoods and obliterated sense of self that has plagued the main subject since their first confrontation with a ghost, demon, dark entity or poltergeist. Equal parts horrific and evocative, A GHOST RUINED MY LIFE exposes audiences to the real-life stories of people dragged through hell and back as they struggle to rebuild their shattered lives.

Eli Roth made his directorial debut in 2002 with the film “Cabin Fever;” his follow up titles, which include “Hostel,” “Hostel Part II,” “Knock Knock” and “Death,” have earned him critical praise and a reputation as a true innovator in the horror space. He also co-produces the new discovery+ series, THE HAUNTED MUSEUM with Zak Bagans, and hosts/produces the AMC series “Eli Roth’s History of Horror.” In the premiere episodes of A GHOST RUINED MY LIFE, it’s clear that Eli still has a deep affinity for horror.

The premiere episode introduces a mother and her young son who rent an old house in the country. She quickly senses the presence of an evil entity, and after a violent series of attacks, her battle ends with a shocking confrontation. In the second episode, dropping October 8, Roth follows a devastating tale of a loving couple that starts having issues after a sudden death in the family. They’re horrified to learn that grief isn’t the only thing pushing them apart. Evil visions and paranormal activity begin driving one of them to the point of madness and their entire family must fight to protect what remains.

ELI ROTH PRESENTS: A GHOST RUINED MY LIFE is part of the “Ghostober IV” programming event on discovery+, the streamer’s late September and October slate packed with series that attract viewers who live for the creepy, scary, adrenaline-inducing stories that define Halloween.
