bearsfaneva I love most things paranormal. Especially if it doesn't put me to sleep. This is one of the better paranormal shows out there. Not only is it entertaining, it also has an educational side to it. I'm just a little confused about them advertising a new season on Destination America. I looked for new episodes and all I see is episodes from past seasons as far back as 2010. Is their really new episodes or not? Did they just change the network and call it new? I do hope they will come out with more seasons. Too many good shows get cut these days. I watch many paranormal shows. This ranks about number 2 or 3 in my top 10 favs.
sallyd651 I enjoyed this series because it reflects "everyday" encounters with spirits. Contrary to the expectation raised by horror stories, most people who have extrasensory experiences do not have scary ones, & I appreciate that the series reflects that. These are ordinary, sensible people who happen to have had paranormal experiences, like a relative returning from The Other Side to help them. Perhaps the selection of the stories is part of the screening process, as I noticed that psychologists & religious experts were listed as consultants. My family has had many psychic experiences, & my mother trained many of the kids to control their psychic abilities & use them responsibly. There were no horror stories in our family lore, & it was seen as an extra sense that helped us understand things more deeply or help others. A spirit returning to deliver a message was not automatically something to fear, any more than a surprise visit from a cousin.
tsimm97 I so agree with your opinion. It is presented very bare bones, with little explanation. Much better than the other voyeuristic ghost hunting shows. Well worth watching. I read some comments from some who believe they have the 'scientific' explanation to what these people experienced, such as with the 'Hag' story. I was thinking also that she probably was experiencing sleep paralysis until she mentioned her roommate telling her about the/a spirit with her telling the roommate. I would not classify myself necessarily a True Believer or nonbeliever. I try to look at the situation with an open but rational mind, not being bound to my world view. I would just say, things are sometimesnot as easily classified and explained as we would like.
meganisis Contains a Spoil of how the Show works! :O This particular show is one that I personally find annoying. They put people of all ethnicities and walks of life into a room with a spotlight shining on them and then ask them to tell the camera about their 'Ghostly Encounters'.Sometimes the encounters are rather interesting, but no matter what there are usually ways to disprove the stories, an inconsistency in the story itself or a medical explanation can be provided.Not to say that ghosts and spirits don't exist by no means, but the show is not the greatest to help prove that case.Often the show has re-enactments to obviously make it a little more interesting. These re-enactments are really well done usually, very complete with full details of the surroundings.I wouldn't recommend watching this show all the time but once and a while when there is not a single thing on TV most likely the WNetwork will have it playing.
