Ghost Adventures reality star Aaron Goodwin was allegedly a victim of more than a murder plot organized by his ex-wife Victoria earlier this year, according to a court filing by Aaron, she was also allegedly abusive at home. Goodwin is seeking $10,000 in punitive damages for her actions. 

To re-cap, the ex-Mrs. Goodwin, with the help of an imprisoned murderer named Grant Amato, took out a hit contract on her reality star husband even going so far as to send the killer money in jail. But thankfully the plan was thwarted before it could be completed. She was arrested on March 6, and Aaron filed for divorce a week later. Now, new allegations have come to light about what Victoria was like at home.  

US Magazine exclusively obtained Aaron’s complaint filed to the court this week in which he claims Victoria was psychologically abusive.

“[Victoria’s] conduct was extreme or outrageous with either the intention of or reckless disregard for, causing emotional distress to [Aaron],” the filing reads. “[He] suffered severe or extreme emotional distress as the actual or proximate result of [her] conduct.”

Furthermore, and we don’t fully understand the legal-speak here, Victoria was a controlling woman. She intended to “confine [him] within boundaries” of her choosing. 

Does that mean she wouldn’t let him leave the house? 

The filing continues: 

“[Victoria’s] act directly or resulted in such a confinement.[Aaron] was conscious of the confinement or was harmed by it.”

Not to make light of the situation but we’re getting serious Misery vibes here. 

The article goes on to say a source told them Victoria admitted her marriage to Aaron was struggling. And the money she sent to Amato was meant for a cell phone. Do they allow convicted murderers access to a cell phone in prison? So many questions. 

Of course we will have to see what the judge thinks about Aaron’s filings, nothing has been proven. The rest are allegations which Victoria has yet to respond to which is probably at the advice of her lawyer. 

Aaron continues to work on his reality show Ghost Adventures with its 28th season premiering next month on Discovery+.
