I am beside myself with paranormal giddy delight!
In a press release:
SYFY WILL PREMIERE STRANDED, TERRIFYING NEW PARANORMAL AND PSYCHOLOGICAL EXPERIMENT – FROM THE PRODUCER OF PARANORMAL ACTIVITY
INNOVATIVE REALITY SERIES DEBUTS WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 27 AT 9PM
NEW YORK – February 7, 2013 – If you thought Paranormal Activity was scary – get ready for Stranded. The new Syfy reality series, premiering Wednesday, February 27 at 9PM (ET/PT), uses the same stripped-down first-person method to document an unconventional – and terrifying – paranormal and psychological experiment in which participants are stranded at haunted location for a week and must record the entire experience themselves.
Jason Blum, producer of the Paranormal Activity movie franchise, Insidious and Sinister, serves as an executive producer; as does Josh Gates, the host and co-executive producer of Syfy’s popular series Destination Truth.
Each of the six hour-long episodes features the self-recorded footage of a diverse group of everyday paranormal enthusiasts. The footage from the subjects’ cameras is supplemented by strategically-placed security cameras at each location, creating a suspenseful, completely unscripted first-hand account of each group’s stay.
Over the course of the confinement, the subjects contend with increasingly pervasive feelings of fear and desolation, resulting in an experiment that represents a unique combination of psychology and the paranormal.
Star Island in New Hampshire serves as the haunted locale in the premiere episode of Stranded. Upcoming shows were filmed at sites such as Seaview Terrace in Newport, Rhode Island, and the West Virginia State Penitentiary in Moundsville, West Virginia.
In addition to Blum and Gates, Stranded is executive-produced by Brad Kuhlman and Casey Brumels for Ping Pong Productions, and co-executive-produced by Gerard Bocaccio, who heads up Blumhouse TV.

Hi Maggie,
You will need to go to Syfy.com/Stranded to check into that. I am not sure how to become a participant on the show. We just report news and post clips and write reviews on the shows.
