”The Dead Files” and When To Expect Season 16
“The Dead Files” is a staple of The Travel Channel, featuring two hosts who dare to venture into the paranormal world and seek down ghosts, ghouls and other creatures related to the Occult in order to communicate with them and attempt to solve mysteries. The show’s two, technically three, hosts are Steve DiSchiavi, Amy Allan, and Cindy Kaza. Amy Allan left the show in season 15 and was replaced by Cindy Kaza, who is expected to continue as the host with Steve DiSchiavi. A third participant, Matthew Anderson, is the videographer and records the entire experience with a skeleton production crew.
The hosts will arrive to a location, perform their analysis and assessment of the nature of the crime, speak to a local historian, and then will come to conclusions based on their gathered evidence. Season 16 will feature more of the same, but Cindy Kaza has been brought in to replace the paranormal investigator host Amy Allan. Cindy possess a slightly different outlook towards the occult, so this can bring an entirely different dynamic with other co-host Steve DiSchiavi who tended not to clash with his previous co-host.
“The Dead Files” has continued to air since 2011 and has featured nearly 250 episodes in that time. The show follows the two hosts in their respective disciplines since Steve is a retired detective and Amy Allan/Cindy Kaza are the paranormal experts. Steve gives a more grounded approach to the situation while the paranormal expert attempts to communicate with whatever haunts the location. The show has featured locations all over the United States, and there’s a strong chance that they were in an area close to you!
We have not received official word of “The Dead Files” Season 16’s date yet, but look for news to be confirmed 3-6 months before the airing of the new season if the previous seasons show any pattern to go off of. There is likely to be a delay because of the change in hosts and Cindy Kaza featuring on another paranormal Travel Channel show. Season 15 ended began on June 1st, 2023 and ended on October 19, 2023 across 13 episodes.
Why Did Amy Allan Leave and Who is Her Replacement?
Amy Allan was born on May 31, 1973 and is perhaps best known as the co-host of “The Dead Files.” Amy Allan hasn’t delivered an official statement on why she left the show, but according to her Instagram, she’s looking to “embark on a new life.” She actively posts on Instagram, and was last reported to reside in Arizona. She also has an active Facebook page with 185,000 followers.
Cindy Kaza was born on November 20, 1980 and has been featured in multiple paranormal investigation shows. Replacing Amy Allan is Cindy Kaza, who is another host from an adjacent paranormal show “The Holzer Files” which also stars on The Travel Channel. “The Holzer Files” has not been reported to be canceled, so it is likely that Kaza will be performing double duty and this can cause a backup in production for “The Dead Files.” Kaza also has her own website, which features a list of her touring events in the United States. There are some breaks in between her touring dates, which can possibly hint at filming for either of her shows.
Steve DiSchiavi 2024 Updates - Where is He Now?
Starring opposite the paranormal investigator is Steve DiSchiavi, a 21-year veteran of the New York Police Department with experience as a homicide detective. He was born on May 1, 1966. Steve is known as the more grounded host of “The Dead Files,” calling on his experience from time spent with the NYPD. The show usually tends to involve homicides and Steve can often find success in a more recent homicide mystery.
Steve DiSchiavi does not have an official social media account to follow updates on, but the most recent update was his cancellation of his appearance at the New Jersey Paraunity Expo. These are related to his health, according to a video he posted himself. Steve has usually attended paranormal expositions as a featured guest and those are perhaps the best place to keep in touch with his public appearances and whatever is developing for “The Dead Files” Season 16.

Steve is such a levelheaded person and down to earth, grounds the show. I hope his health is ok and hadn’t been affected by all he’s encountered. I really wish Amy well. It’s got to be so taxing to be a physical medium. I could see it had taken a toll. Rest, recoup and all the best in your new endeavors Amy!! All the best to Cindy eho has large shoes to fill.
Bring back the best paranormal show please!!!
Does this have to do with the writers strike?
I’m not sure if they’re going to do away with discovery plus altogether but the majority of those stations that they list are on Max
I'm also a fan of Cindy Kaza and will definitely be watching when she takes over. No, it won't be the same. But, that's okay. Amy gave so many years to the show and she deserves to move on and do what feels right for her. Cindy will be great and she'll make it her own.
Thanks to all involved
Just say thankyou to Discovery and Travel Channel and be greatful and wait .
