  • Burnin’ down the house … the haunted house that is

    I was saddened to learn of an historic site that was allegedly burned down by alcohol-fuel ghost hunters. The historic LeBeau Plantation survived for 160 years until destroyed by a fire caused (allegedly) by (alleged) paranormal investigators. These so-called ghost hunters have been charged with burglary and arson. While the blame clearly lands on these…

  • The many dangers of ghost hunting

  • My thoughts on this week’s Syfy paranormal shows

    I can’t help but think that a couple of the current paranormal shows will soon become ghostly memories. Let’s take a look at “Fact or Fake.” For whatever reason, the show continues to stray from its premise. Is the viral video fact or faked? Instead, we watch as the show, all to quickly, abandons its…

  • My thoughts of Ghost Hunters 7.3: “Century of Hauntings”

    Ghost Hunters 1.440 million viewers,( down from the1.481 million of last week) found itself badly beaten by Top Chef and Dog the Bounty Hunter.The show is barely holding on in the top 10 rated shows for Wednesday. As a result GH seems to be grasping for ideas from other paranormal shows. GH has made a…

    The Ghost Hunters show started with a season premiere rating of 1.745 million viewers, but the Pennhurst episode slipped to 1.481 million viewers. The GH show was narrowly beaten by Face Off (1.490 million viewers). It would seem that the new paint is not helping the show. The episode began with Jason and Grant as…

  • GHI: Army of the Dead

    I’m sitting here on Super Bowl Sunday watching a marathon of Ghost Hunters, and I thought that I would talk about GHI’s last episode. GHI ratings have dropped just a little, coming in with a modest  1.221 million (1.234 previous week) viewers for the “Army of the Dead” episode. Maybe the numbers have hit bottom and GHI…
