My wife used to be addicted to Most haunted until she spoke a woman who told her that the most haunted production team came round to her house asking if they could film there.

"My house isnt haunted" came the womans reply to which they replied "Do you want it to be"

Lol always thought it was a big con!

There must have been hundreds of hours of stuff filmed on this program, and in all that time I would have expected something to have been newsworthy in some way.

The fact that, as far as I know, nothing ever has been is comforting that I haven't wasted hundreds of hours of my life.


THUD.

****, what was that?!

There was more visibal real ghosts and spooks in the blair witch project and we all know that was fake

A funny clip,

Most Haunted is the logical continuation of the BBC show called Ghostwatch that was broadcast on Halloween night in 1992.
It's just an entertainment show not a serious investigation into apparent paranormal activity so you can't take it seriously at all.

Does anyone remember the BBC's Ghostwatch?
Broadcast as a live TV event on Halloween night 92. This pre-recorded "drama" caused absolute mayhem for the BBC as they scared the life out a few thousand soft headed nutters who honestly believed that the show was a serious live broadcast from a supposedly haunted house in Stanmore in north London.
Here's a clip.....

Most Haunted is the progression of this format.
Reality haunted TV.

They have even been caught out by the press but people still think it's a real show.

the living channel is so ironic, most of its output is about the dead. should be called the death channel.

Does anyone remember the BBC's Ghostwatch? :

Ghostwatch was excellent, I did twig (honest) while watching it (the ending gave it away) but still found it scary, I know some people who really freaked over it.

With so much TV of this nature now it's easy to lose sight of how well Ghostwatch was executed 17 years ago.

Rented the DVD a year or so back to watch it again. Fave bit is where the camera sweeps around the bedroom and you get a glimpse of that figure in the window. Gives me goosebumps even now.

I never saw the Ghostwatch broadcast (I was at an Oktoberfest in Battersea park getting drunk! ) But I remember waking up the next morning and watching the news and reading the papers regarding the panic it caused.
It was like the Orson Wells War of the Worlds broadcast all over again!
Apparently someone tried to commit suicide after watching it believing like a lot of the viewers that it was a real broadcast
The BBC have never re-shown it because of the amount of flack they received over it the first time around.
A couple of years ago I saw that the DVD has been released (As a BFI disc) and I had to get a copy to see what all the fuss was all about.
Well after viewing I couldn't believe how any adult could have gotten taken in by it. The acting by the professionals is wooden let alone Sarah Greene (Still gives me the horn ) and her then husband Mike Smith. Parky is hilarious in it, especially at the end when the studio has been taken over by the poltergeist and he starts singing a nursery rhyme directly into the camera lens .

Classic stuff and I don't think this sort of programme could be made today because no one would ever believe it is real.

The psychic consultant on this show was Guy Lyon Playfair who not only has one of the most ridiculous names in history but was also one of the key investigator on the famous Enfield poltergeist case (1977-1979) and he wrote the genuinely scary book "This House is Haunted" about the case.

Best one by far.

I used to quite like it, but it got worse and worse as the series went on. And it's a proven con anyway.

Thing i hate about the live ones is the people who send stuff in all the time like "Chris from Somerset wrote in to say there's a man called William that's evil will be following Karl around tonight.". What? Is everyone a psychic or medium now?
