Actress Allison Scagliotti will join the team on Destination Truth: Live from Ireland – The Search for the Banshee Ghost, a four-hour special episode that will take Josh Gates and team to Ireland for their very first live investigation. Best known to Syfy fans as Claudia on the immensely popular series Warehouse 13, Scagliotti is also no stranger to live television or overnight adventure: she fearlessly served as co-host of last year’s Ghost Hunters Halloween Live event.

This special episode of Destination Truth will air from 7-11pm (ET/PT) on Thursday, March 17. In addition to Scagliotti, the team will also welcome three veteran guest investigators: Kris Williams and Barry FitzGerald (Ghost Hunters International), and Jael de Pardo (Fact or Faked: Paranormal Files, Destination Truth).

In Destination Truth: Live from Ireland – The Search for the Banshee Ghost, Gates and his team will brave the crumbling ruins of Duckett’s Grove Castle in County Carlow, Ireland, in search of the truth behind the legend of the banshee. Today, many County Carlow locals claim to have witnessed hearing the banshee’s unmistakable wail and seeing glimpses of an ethereal woman stalking the grounds of the 200 year-old historic ruins of Duckett’s Grove Castle. Armed with equipment, expertise and, as always, humor, Josh and team will attempt to solve the mystery behind this age-old legend.

New episodes of Destination Truth will return starting Tuesday, March 22 @ 9pm (new night and time).

On Thursday, March 17, 2011, Syfy’s hit adventure reality series Destination Truth will celebrate St. Patrick’s Day with the show’s first-ever LIVE investigation! Host Josh Gates will take viewers to Ireland for the Season 4.5 premiere, where he and his team will brave the crumbling ruins of Duckett’s Grove Castle in search of the truth behind the legend of the banshee.

According to Irish legend, the banshee is a sign of impending death; a female ancestral spirit who wails around a house the night before someone inside is to meet their demise. Today, many County Carlow locals claim to have witnessed hearing the banshee’s unmistakable wail and seeing glimpses of an ethereal woman stalking the grounds of the 200 year-old historic ruins of Duckett’s Grove Castle. Armed with equipment, expertise and, as always, humor, Josh and team will attempt to solve the mystery behind this age-old legend.

Josh’s return to Ireland marks the one-year anniversary of the series’ most-watched episode (featuring a hunt for the leprechaun that aired on St. Patrick’s Day 2010).

Other adventures this season include tackling claims of spirits in Namibia, a sea monster in Cyprus and mysterious creatures in Panama and Argentina. Then, in another Destination Truth first, the team will trek to Antarctica, where strange phenomena occurring around abandoned research stations has stumped scientists. Now, the Destination Truth crew will brave the elements to conduct the world’s first paranormal investigation on the frozen continent, giving viewers a rare and unique glimpse at this rarely visited landscape…as well as, perhaps, a look into its past.

Kris Williams & Allison Scagliotti To Guest Star On 'Destination Truth' - Episode Schedule

As many of you know, one my favorite television shows, is SyFy's "Destination Truth", which follows the exploits of adventurer Josh Gates and his crew as they investigate sightings of strange monsters and other unexplained phenomena from around the globe.

Well, from the feed-back that I receive every time I write an article about the show, I know that many of the readers here at MIN are fans of the show as well.

Though, NBC/Universal hasn't released any 'official' information about season 3.5 of the series, which makes it's debut this Wednesday, the fine folks over at the "Destination Truth Addicts" group on Facebook, have the low-down on what to expect.

To start with, here is the schedule for the upcoming episodes:

March 17th-Ghosts of Masada Israel/Leprechauns in Ireland
March 24th-Ghosts of the Great Wall of China/Israeli Mermaid
March 31st-The Jersey Devil/The Chinese Yeren
April 7th-Haunted mining town of Chile'/The Taniwha of New Zealand
April 14th-Ghosts of Petra in Jordan/The Lizard Man USA
April 21st-S...pirits Mysterious Statues of Easter Island/The Giant Moa of New Zealand

The group also has the scoop on some casting changes for the upcoming season, it looks like Jael will only appear in the episodes from China. Apparently she had other projects that she was working on that prevented her from being able to appear in any other episodes.

To replace her, Erin Ryder, has returned to the show. Ryder is a well-known producer, and is often busy with other programs, but she has promised to work on "Destination Truth" between projects in the future.

This season will feature two guest stars, MIN favorite Allison Scagliotti from "Warehouse 13" and Kris Williams from "Ghost Hunters."

It looks like SyFy wants to 'sexy' up the show a little bit by adding Scagliotti and Williams to mix....which is okay by me.

Now, I don't want to read too much into this, but I suggested that they do a "Lizard Man" episode in a post on the "Destination Truth" Facebook page some time back.....so they may (or may not) have gotten the idea for the episode from yours truly.

Just saying.......
