Ohio Exploration Society (OES) is an organization dedicated to exploring and documenting abandoned and historic locations, primarily in the state of Ohio. Based in Pickerington, Ohio, United States, OES was founded in 2000 by Jason Robinson and Jay Maynard. The group had grown to more than 25 members as of 2011.

In addition to documenting historic sites, the Ohio Exploration Society investigates reported paranormal activity. One of OES' most notable investigations at the Athens Lunatic Asylum was featured in the 2007 book "Ghosthunters: On the Trail of Mediums, Dowsers, Spirit Seekers, and Other Investigators of America's Paranormal World" by John Kachuba.
