If there's any one thing that shows just how essential Jason and Grant are to the show it's this. The guy they have to 'head' the team has eyes that look like they can penetrate the very coldness of your soul, and all they do is run around screaming "I can see a shadow! In the name of Jesus Christ I demand you to show yourself! Eeek, it touched me!" etc.
Brian still finishes every single sentence in a higher tone, the Irish guy who kept 'running to their rescue' when they did a castle in Ireland in series 3 has gone bald and grown a 'trendy' beard and every time they go somewhere they start speaking of 'Evil presenses' and flee.
Dude, that isn't how rational paranormal investigators you self-label yourself as behave. Damn, at least J+G managed to keep everyone grounded.

Caught one of their shows on Rapidshare. English EVPs in a medieval Italian monastery - give me a break.
The rest was shadow chasing and screaming in the best Most Haunted style. I will try to catch their visit to Germany though. If the German spirits sport a heavy American accent, pretty much everyone knows the score. Also EVP fakery is more difficult in German, since the language sports so many different dialects and has undergone so many changes during the last few centuries. Even though my first language is German, I would have a hard time understanding a guy from the 18th century, let alone from the Middle Ages.

Jemand, you know it will be an American accent on the evps, possibly British. It will not be in German as the audience is mainly English speaking. What is sad is that the believers will still see this as signs of life after death.

And yet they were calling for responses in broad East coast slang whilst the english guy uttered something he claimed to be Latin. Well, I had latin at school and if he hadn't pointed it out, I would have thought him to just scream some gobbeldigok.
I wanted to call out. Hey, the guys you're trying to contact died before Columbus set sail and the English were still busy fighting the Scotts and the Welsh. Chances of somone getting your meaning are slim.
Btw, I caught their visit to Germany. Turned out to be nothing. Well, a few shadowy figures for showmanship without any camera catching them. Some members being touched by ghosty and no EVPs. Maybe even the scifi channel noticed, that the audience might not be dumb enough to buy another set of english responses.

I like the ghi approach ahead of any other so called paranormal investigation programme, but please guys evp might make interesting tv but dont place so much emphasis on it as proof.

Even more so, when they're not even up to faking it in the right languages. After all American slang wasn't that popular in medieval europe. |

He is saying dont accept it as proof, because EVP is fundamentally flawed and cannot be relied upon as any form of evidence. especially because it is dumb. (I think?) |

Thats it Bob, there are too many cases of atmospheric bounce with radio signals for anyone to argue with. Any audio recording device like they use can receive audio signals from anywhere on the planet if the atmospheric conditions are right.
Sure some seem to be responding intelligently to their questions but they never do a double blind test of the equipment see if they receive responses without questions.
The one piece of kit they have that interests me is the full spectrum camera but I dont know enough about the science behind it to say whether its results can be validated yet.

Ah Barry and his silly gadgets. Let me tell you how to make a "Full Spectrum Camera" of your very own. 1: buy a digital camera 2: open it up and remove the IR and UV filters (in other words break the fekkin thing) 3: take images which overload the CCD because they are no longer filtered. 4: proclaim your damaged images as paranormal. 5: rake in the money. Utter tits tbh mate. |

I caught the program again on Tuesday. *shudder*
Still, they went and debunked the Belgrave Hall 'figures' on the CCTV camera to a reasonable extent and not just sent a medium out there to see if they could 'communicate' with the figures recorded.
But that Barry. He was an arse on the main GH show when they went to Ireland. The way he kept running up and butting in every time he decided that 'the lads were in danger' to 'save them' and ruining everything they were trying to do. I'd have told him to feck off.

Hi guys. I was in the original Ghost Hunters series filmed in the UK in around 1995/96 in the South of England. I had an experience that changed my life really. It is all well and good people saying it is a load of old rubbish, but when it happens to you in person it is a different matter. I will now and truthfully say with my hand on my heart, it really did happen. If God would strike me dead for lying now, it happened. As I have tried to explain to others; it is a personal thing for you only, for whatever reason. I do not think I am special in any way shape or form, no better than any other person on this planet. We are susceptible to this spiritual thing, only some choose not to believe, and some choose to switch off from it. It is amazing, and I have many many stories of things that have happened to me over the past 15 to 20 years.

Would these be subjective experiences Joshua, were they supported by third party testimony?
The brain by its very nature can distort the information fed into it by the senses and, over time, the recall of ones memory can further warp, colour and change that original experience.

Ghost Hunters is funny, but nowhere near as funny as the (unintentionally) hilarious Paranormal State.
