Celebrity Help! My House Is Haunted season 2: what happens in each episode?
The ghost-hunting team of paranormal investigator Barri Ghai, psychic medium Ian Lawman and paranormal researcher and historian Jayne Harris head to the home of a celebrity who’s being tormented by unwanted spirits.
On the way to the property, medium Ian insists on knowing nothing about the investigation ahead of them so he can rely solely on his psychic ability to guide him.
Before they meet the celebrity, Ian has a look around the house to get a feel of the place, Barri chats to a loved one to get some background on the celeb and their family, and Jayne explores the surrounding area to find out about its history, usually uncovering some interesting local tales along the way.
Later they regroup to meet the celebrity for the first time and learn about the spooky goings on… and then the investigation proper begins!
With an array of gizmos and gadgets, the team attempts to make contact with the spirits in the house, with one electronic device conveying messages from the other side!
They also spend all night in the house to identify, communicate with and record the spirits who are parading around the property, using brand new, state-of-the-art equipment with ancient spiritual techniques never before documented on TV.
Can the team identify and possibly banish the troublesome spirits from the celeb’s home before dawn breaks?

The team is made up of three of the UK’s leading paranormal investigators who use their supernatural fortes to exorcise the haunted properties. They are paranormal consultant and technical expert Barri Ghai; exorcist and medium Ian Lawman; and paranormal researcher, psychologist and historian Jayne Harris. Find out more about them below!

Celebrity Help! My House Is Haunted — who are the spooked celebrities?
Louie Spence
Nimble-footed Louie is a dancer, choreographer and television personality, who’s best known for appearing in the hit Sky One (now Sky Max) show Pineapple Dance Studios – where he danced and pranced his way into the nation’s hearts.
These days, however, it’s Louie’s 200-year-old cottage in Essex that’s giving him the run around!
The house has been plagued with strange smells, bumps in the night and strange shadows coming and going...
Simon Gregson
Everyone knows that Simon is best known as Coronation Street’s Steve McDonald, who he first played at the age of 15 in 1989.
Now 48, Simon lives with his young family in a 5-bed detached property in Wilmslow, Cheshire, where all the Gregsons have witnessed the same ghostly apparition and heard their names whispered… But is it a friend or foe?
Can Barri, Ian and Jayne give Simon and his brood some answers?
Lady Colin Campbell
Also known as Lady C, the author, socialite and television personality is probably best known for appearing on the fifteenth TV series of I'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here! in 2015.
The writer of several books about the royal family lives at the 19th-century Castle Goring in Worthing, West Sussex, where female spirits have been stalking her guests.
Desperate to find out who she’s sharing her home with, Lady C hopes the team can help.
Marnie Simpson
As the star of hit reality TV show Geordie Shore, Marnie is used to being around spirits, but usually only the ones that come in a glass!
Also known for her appearances in Celebrity Big Brother and Ex On The Beach, Marnie feels like her life took a sinister turn after she did a now-regrettable photo shoot in a graveyard for her 6million followers on social media because she's now being plagued by spirits that have followed her from home to home.
Can Barri, Ian and Jayne help Marnie to rid herself of this malevolent shadow once and for all?
Jake Quickenden
Jake found fame as a contestant on The X Factor in 2012, but only made it to the Judges’ Houses stage of the singing competition. Two years later, he auditioned again and made it through to the live shows, but was eliminated in the third week of the 2014 series.
Later that year, he came second in I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! and went on to win Dancing On Ice in 2018.
He’s also starred as a character called Woody in Hollyoaks (2019) and competed in the 2021 series of Celebrity SAS: Who Dares Wins.
Jake often tells his social media followers about the bangs, crashes and voices that he and his young family hear in their detached home in the Essex countryside.
Now Jake’s called on Barri, Ian and Jayne to help him find out who is following, guiding, and sometimes scaring him, everywhere he goes…
Having experience personal loss, Jake's hoping the spirits are loved ones trying to contact him, so he's hoping the team can provide him with some longed-for answers.
