Opinion of various "ghost hunter" shows?
I don't get much of a chance to watch these. The ghosthunters episode on the St Augesinte lighthouse and The Waverly Hospital were good and actually showed something. As is Dead Famous Ghostly Encounters. Don't care much for the British version with Derek whats his name. However, do you believe the footage and tapes or do you think it is scripted. Just now watched one on the Queen Mary where you can hear a little girl singing by the swimming pool ... do we believe it or not. Maybe if a full bodied appirition floated in front of the camera and bit someone i would not be so skeptical. Your opinions please.
TAPS ghosthunters is the only one I watch and LOVE. They try to discredit things, not jump at saying something is haunted. Yes things are caught on tape sometimes, but not a lot, and it is subjective. All of the other horrible ones I have seen (especially on the Travel channel) have pretty much sucked. There was this one I watched on the travel channel where they pointed out an "orb" in the corner of a picture and said that was absolute proof of the place being haunted and then went on to say that the orb showed eyes and a mouth, a smiling ghost. Ridiculous.
