Leave the ghost hunting for late night

Television shows about chasing ghosts and evil spirits seem to be all over the television now. But how many of these shows are actually real? Are these so called ghost hunters actually encountering ghosts and spirits like they say they are? Or are they just acting for the part for the shows sake?
In my opinion these shows are completely fake and full of over dramatic acting by the hosts. And might I add that the acting is less than sub-par at best. Now I’m not debating the fact that the stories of the haunted houses and mental asylums aren’t true because they might be I just think that the shows are coming across as way to fake to be even somewhat believable. The hosts are constantly hearing so called voices which sound to me like gusts of wind or static on the microphone. Yet the hosts hear all sorts of threatening messages that seem so farfetched it just seems comical to me. These shows show no hardcore evidence that anything that they are experiencing is actually happening so I find it extremely hard to believe.



However I seem to be alone because there seems to be an uprising in ghost shows on television with the addition of Ghost Hunters on the SyFy channel and Ghost Adventures on the Travel Channel with prime time slots. I think that these shows should be left to late night television at best because they take away from time that should be spent on shows that actually entertain people.
Leave the ghost tours for people to experience first-hand and not through their television screens.

  1. I agree with you that these shows are silly and should not be on prime time slots. The first time is saw ghost adventures i thought it was a joke, but it turned out they were serious. It seems to me as if they are trying to record an experience that can not be recorded. If there goal is to prove that ghosts exist then i do not think they are doing a very good job.
