Ghost hunting shows on TV

[Bull Dozer]

Halloween Review show is on right now.

Something was fishy about the "Pull" on grant's collar.  He always had his right hand in his coat pocket.  He reacted surprised, completely caught off guard, but only used one hand the entire sequence of 3 tugs to his collar. 

I always look at everything from a skeptics eye and to me, that seems like it could have been easily rigged to happen with the pull of a fishing wire.

Ghosts are fake, give me some extra terrestrial specials and im glued in.

This is probably the most realistic clip I've ever seen.  Pretty freaky:

That SNL bit is a classic.  ;D

Yeah, Velcro, that collar deal was dodgy. I also don't like their EMF lights and ghost conversations; that's a real stretch for me.

Of the three shows, "Ghost Hunters," "Ghost Adventures," and "Most Haunted," I think the third is a complete sham. When you have a psychic on the show, you have crossed over into nonsense.

Ghost Adventures is somewhat reputable to me in that they really seem scared and they move around in complete darkness. They also don't seem to find evidence on every episode. But they brought a psychic onto the last show and have lost a lot of credibility with me.

Ghost Hunters, I suspect is pulling the wool over our eyes. They always are able to record loud voices and activity. Plus, they expect to find something and they do. The bit with the coat hanger in the one episode(?) seemed really fake.

The bottom line is this: if these shows keep doing what they do and come up with nothing in their searches then they will eventually be canceled. This gives them so much motivation to fake their stuff (ghost activity). How difficult is it, really, for them to fake what they do?  :

excellent points accross the board.  It would be very easy to fake most of it and psychics instantly discredit anything they do...

Sham:  noun.  See John Edward
