“Paranormal State” (9 p.m., A&E): Halloween is still a couple of weeks away, but it’s not too early for some spooky shenanigans. So bring on the Season 5 opener of “Paranormal State,” which has the gang looking into a haunted Southern plantation with a secret past.

“Mad Men” (10 p.m., AMC): Last week, we saw Don Draper (Jon Hamm) in desperation mode. With his underdog ad agency at death’s door, he boldly rolled the dice with a wild public relations stunt that could prove to be a heroic game-changer — or the final nail in the coffin. This week, in the Season 4 finale, we’ll see how the move plays out. And amid all the commotion, Don and Peggy (Elisabeth Moss) will be presented with an opportunity that forces them to make “life-altering” decisions. In their fourth seasons, many TV shows experience a creative slump. But “Mad Men” was as provocative and captivating as ever.

“CSI Miami” (10 p.m., CBS): The term “see no evil” takes on new meaning with this week’s “CSI: Miami.” When a girl is abducted, Horatio learns there’s only one witness — and he happens to be blind.
