Ghost Hunters
In 2007, she joined the East Coast TAPS team in the show “Ghost Hunters”, featuring Jason Hawes and Grant Wilson, formerly Roto-Rooter plumbers who would investigate as a hobby before they turned it into a profession. The two along with their team including Amy, would go on to investigate various places reported as haunted.In the show, the team often uses various electronic equipment which they believe could catch paranormal activity. They initially survey the property with the owners who discuss their experiences with the team, and then set up their equipment. They spend several hours recording audio, electromagnetic field, and temperature readings, with numerous video cameras on the site, and most of the time the group try to coax ghosts into responding. Afterwards, the team will spend a few days analyzing their data, before talking to the owners about their findings.

The team believes that not everything they encounter is paranormal, and may be caused by reasonable explanations such as cold spots and vermin in the walls. Many of their investigations turn up cold, with very little evidence of paranormal activity, however, they do claim that they have several decent recordings of shadowy figures, mysterious lights, and moving objects. The show proved successful, attracting the highest ratings of any Syfy programming though it has also attracted criticisms from numerous sources. Many critics believe that their method of investigating is illogical, and they use emotions as paranormal evidence instead of rationally trying to go through each experience or possible evidence.
Aftermath and Recent Projects

She eventually started her own paranormal travel company called Strange Escapes, which mixes her passions for travel and mystery, leading guests to various infamous haunted places.

They also feature guest investigators. She would then move on to other projects, and helped to create “Kindred Spirits” a new show on TLC featuring her and Adam Berry as they investigate homes of people claiming their places are haunted, and help them to reclaim their property.
