Paranormal Cops follows a group of larger-than-life cops who walk one beat during the day as Chicago-area police officers and another at night when they apply their forensic and investigative expertise to paranormal casework. Responding to the pleas of people who are victimized by distressing and inexplicable activities in their homes and workplaces, these cops bring their real-life police skills and no-nonsense approach to each case in an attempt separate fact from fiction — often happening upon results much scarier than the paranormal. In “Casa Madrid,” the one-hour series premiere, the team responds to a store manager who is so distraught over events taking place in the basement of his store that he is ready to quit. An investigation turns up paranormal activity and uncovers a frightening past: the store was once a notorious hangout and gambling hall host to countless crimes, including murder.
