“Ghost Adventures” Star’s Wife Arrested in Shocking Murder Plot Scandal

In a jaw-dropping twist worthy of a horror flick, Victoria Goodwin, wife of “Ghost Adventures” star Aaron Goodwin, was arrested on March 6 for allegedly conspiring to have her husband killed. The 32-year-old is facing serious charges of soliciting and conspiring to commit murder, as detailed in Clark County, Nevada inmate records. Victoria has been held on a $100,000 bail and was set to make her initial court appearance on March 11.
According to reports from TMZ, investigators stumbled upon a series of incriminating messages exchanged between Victoria and an inmate in a Florida prison. One particularly chilling text from her read, “Am I a bad person? Because I chose to end his existence. Not divorce.” Yikes! It seems that the couple’s marriage, which had previously been celebrated on social media, was facing more than just the usual ups and downs.
Victoria allegedly provided the inmate with detailed information about Aaron’s filming schedule for “Ghost Adventures,” even going so far as to save over $11,500 to pay for the hit, with discussions of an upfront payment of $2,500. Her communications reportedly included frantic inquiries about the status of the alleged plot, revealing a level of premeditation that is both baffling and disturbing.
Despite the evidence, Victoria has denied any intent to harm Aaron, claiming she has no memory of sending the messages and asserting that the money promised was for cell phones, not for nefarious purposes. However, she did acknowledge that the couple had been experiencing marital issues. This revelation raises eyebrows, especially as Aaron expressed shock over the unfolding situation, claiming he believed their marriage was in a good place.
The couple tied the knot in August 2022, celebrating their love at Disneyland’s Haunted Mansion—a whimsical setting that now feels almost ironic given the current circumstances. Aaron shared their wedding joy on Instagram, reflecting on the numerous delays caused by the pandemic. Little did fans know then that their romantic fairytale would take such a dark turn.
As the investigation unfolds, it serves as a stark reminder that some realities can be scarier than fiction. For those eager to follow this unfolding drama, PEOPLE has reached out to various police departments for further comments, but responses have yet to materialize.
