Ghost Hunters, Syfy’s awesome TAPS team from damned Yankee land is set to turn on the Jason and Grant charm offensive with a bunch of Southern belles.

Time for an NBCU inter-sister network mash-up as Syfy and Bravo are taking their TAPS team and blending with Bravo’s The Real Housewives of Atlanta’s Sheree Whitfield, NeNe Leakes and Kim Zolciak.

The place? The historic Rhodes Hall in Atlanta, GA., as Jason, Grant and the rest of the team merge for an unforgettable investigation.   The episode is slated to air on Syfy this fall.

The Real Housewives of Atlanta is a Southern-fried hot mess of women who wear wigs, have sketchy pasts, stuff themselves in clothes a size too small, bicker like there's no tomorrow about foolish things and quote OK! Magazine like it's the Constitution:

Exhibit A:

"Ghost Hunters" season after season takes us to wonderful locations all over the world and delves into the history and the purported ghost sightings and paranormal disturbances of stately properties, and infamous locales like Alcatraz and abandoned hotels. 

No wigs, bitch slapping, husband snatching or threats of "taking your ass to court" (Nene Leakes to Kim Zolciak, August 2009) for the TAPS boys.
