Ghost Adventures Star’s Wife Faces Murder-for-Hire Charges in Shocking Plot
In an astonishing twist worthy of a horror film script, Victoria Goodwin, the wife of “Ghost Adventures” star Aaron Goodwin, has been arrested for allegedly attempting to orchestrate her husband’s murder. Reports from TMZ reveal that Victoria was taken into custody last week, facing serious charges of solicitation to commit murder and conspiracy to commit murder. According to police, her alleged plan involved messaging an inmate in a Florida prison, asking about how to “end his existence” rather than opting for a more conventional divorce.
The arrest came after police intercepted messages detailing a plot to kill Goodwin while he was filming in California. Not only did Victoria provide the inmate with information about Aaron’s whereabouts, but she also set aside a whopping $11,515 as payment for the hitman. The chilling communications included queries like, “He’s asleep right now in the hotel room … I need to know what’s going on. Can I get an update?” alluding to her intentions with a level of detail that would make even the most seasoned crime novelist blanch.
Despite the gravity of her actions, Victoria has denied any intent to harm her husband, claiming that her messages were mere “daydreaming” or “fantasizing.” She even stated that she didn’t remember sending the incriminating texts, which is a curious defense considering the specificity of her plans. In a rather bizarre twist, she suggested that the money was meant for cell phones, indirectly admitting to marital strife but sidestepping the more alarming implications of her alleged conspiracy.
Aaron Goodwin, who married Victoria in a whimsical ceremony at Disneyland’s Haunted Mansion in August 2022, expressed his feelings of betrayal and devastation, noting that he believed they were in a happy marriage. Friends like Zak Bagans have stepped in to offer support during this tumultuous time. As it stands, Victoria is being held on a $100,000 bail, and the couple’s future appears as uncertain as the ghostly apparitions they often chase on screen. This shocking event has undoubtedly sent shockwaves through the paranormal community and beyond, raising questions about the dark undercurrents that sometimes lurk behind seemingly perfect relationships.
