A horror comedy titled Ghost Trek is set to begin shooting a pilot on December 10th. Now, don't be mislead by the title which could be thought to possibly portray a mad ghost haunting the inhabitants of the Enterprise. No, it's about the paranormal underworld and deals in the genre of reality TV. Sounds interesting. Take a look at the release below for more details.

From the Release:

Ghost Trek is a comic horror series pilot based on a paranormal reality show. Ghost Trek follows the Paranormal Underworld Detective Society (PUDS) as they investigate haunts across the U.S. and abroad between tanning beds, babes, body-building, and bong hits – all the while risking life and limb confronting the undead.

Notable appearances in the GHOST TREK television pilot are Gia Allemand (ABC’s The Bachelor, Bachelor Pad) recently cast as “Ava Gardner” in Gianni Russo’s $70 million biopic produced by Paramount, the notorious Jonny “Fairplay” Dalton (CBS’s Survivor series), Christy Johnson (2010 Los Angeles Music Award winner for “Best Female Performer”), and ten-year-old Addy Miller (AMC’s current mega-hit The Walking Dead).

The GHOST TREK pilot begins shooting December 10, 2010 in Charlotte, NC and its environs at a number of locations across the region, including the BUTTER nightclub, the NASCAR Hall of Fame building, as well as other studio and residential locations.

GHOST TREK is lead by Dr. Zeke Wallace (Michael Melendez), an ex-chiropractor turned paranormal investigator living in New York with his girlfriend, Shawna Leibowitz (Gia Allemand) who is also the show’s producer. The other PUDS investigators are: Joey Mayhem and The Bomb, two UFC wanna-be’s from New Jersey (Glenn Gilbertti and Scott Colton), the fashion-conscious psychic Guy Swisher (Brett Gentile), the team’s tech specialists and devoted stoners Robbie (Mikey “B” Bortone) and Ray-Ray (Jonny “Fairplay” Dalton), the “living dead-roller girl” case manager “Scary” Carrie Carmichael (Christy Johnson), Weasel the kleptomaniac cameraman (Kevin Johnson), and newbie Jules Partridge (Julia Bullock).

In the pilot entitled, “The Kinsey Report”, the team travels to Aspen, Colorado to investigate a supposed “cursed” house where a young pageant girl, Tyler Rae Kinsey (Addy Miller), was murdered. Meanwhile, Shawna is fuming over Zeke’s out–of-control spending, especially now that she suspects he’s cheating on her. But she’s forced to sit still for Zeke’s lunar escapades as Harvey Goldman, the show’s executive producer (Lonn Friend), says, “He’s trending.”

Combining the camp of Kolchak: the Night Stalker, the dynamics of The X-Files, the comedy of Clerks, and knuckle-headed types of The Jersey Shore, there’s no question GHOST TREK will be a hit with the Family Guy and/or Ghost Hunters crowd. Described by Jason Tracey, writer and producer of A&E’s Burn Notice as “promising and well-written,” GHOST TREK combines indie-horror with indie-comedy creating a crossover market appeal by incorporating reality stars and actors, plus masterful special effects make-up from two-time Emmy Award winner, Dean Jones (Star Trek: Deep Space Nine).
