Ghost Hunters Thread & Personal Ghost Experiences & other Paranormal Talk.

I went to Henry Ford Museum today and they have this new exhibit of famous costumes from movies. They also had the original Ghost Busters vehicle in the same exhibit.

UGH, my boyfriend will flip if he hears this - he is a movie prop FREAK. PLUS, we used to live LITERALLY right across Michigan Ave from The Henry Ford.


Back on topic - Has anyone heard anything about where the live Halloween episode will be???

I Tivo'd Most Haunted, as usual. As I said to my wife: It is fake, but pretty well done.

Why, for one instance, would a camera-man keep his camera on people's faces, rather than the Quigi board? EVERYTHING is caught 'off camera'.

Anyway, very lame episode. "I feel the knockings underneath my feet!" is about the best they had to offer. Plus, when they are in the Jenny house, you could clearly see cars passing by in the back, yet the moderator goes 'nuts' over 'flashing lights' (obviously made by the head=lights).

I know,they were getting those posts across the bottom of the screen talking about lights in the window and I'm going "idiot, they are headlights!"

GH put black over the door at the one investigation they did so no lights or outside influences would show up. The Most Haunted team should have done the same since they were so close to a road.

Fort Delaware is their live location this year. They were there once and I think it is a good location to do their live show from. I'm really happy it is on a Friday night this year, no need to worry about having to get up the next day for work.

This is from the website

Hosted by Josh Gates
Friday October 31 At 7/6C
Brace yourself this Halloween when TAPS takes you on the ultimate ghost hunt. The team returns to the Fort Delaware scene of this season's most jolting and revealing episode.
Commonly referred to as the "black hole", Fort Delaware was used during the Civil War as a POW camp that housed over 33,000 Confederate soldiers. Ravaged by epidemics and torture nearly 2,400 failed to escape and died on the island. The restless spirits have never left.
Join the exclusive seven-hour hunt from home with access to thermal imaging camera feeds and live Q&A with TAPS team members and host Josh Gates. Watch carefully for anything out of the ordinary — you'll be able to send instant alerts of any sightings you make straight to the Ghost Hunters!

Ooooo, isn't that the one where they saw the full bodied apparation in the tunnel?

 

[Nancy]

I think so, I know they had a lot of weird things there. I remember it as being an episode that I wish they had spent more time on.

I tuned in to Most Haunted Live last night as well, and actually stayed up and seen it all, (well most of it I was sick all night so I missed bits and pieces)

Anywhooo, They get tapping everywhere and I mean everywhere they go! They always have the cameras on themselves and they always see or hear something, she (the host) hears the same breathing noise every single week and it always beside her, behind her, just to her left or whatever!

I liked the other medium guy they had not long ago David I believe, he was the "jumpiest" medium I ever seen! It was like "shouldnt you of all people seen it coming"
I will say Yevette the host didnt scream as much as she normaly does, its good for a chuckle now and again but its no GH

 

[sorcerormickey]

Thanks, NANCY!!! I must have skipped over that when I've been checking out the website!

 

[wardfamily1]

I don't care for SciFi's website, it's too vague. I went on there and all I could find out about Wednesday's episode is it says "all new episode".

Well, at least we know it's new.

 

[Syrreal]

I thought last night's episode was pretty boring. Yeah, it had some experiences (like I thought the voices they kept hearing/catching were cool) but it just seemed so blah.

Darn....so how many ghosts would you rate it?

 

[Planogirl]

Woohoo! I just read the post on here about the GH Live show and I'm so glad that Josh Gates will be there again. I just love that guy.

As for last night's show, I think it was kind of flat myself and the locations don't get extra points for me. I give it a 5.5.

Oooo! I just found this thread! subbing!

Probably only 3

Since I'm getting very into the Halloween spirit as the weather finally starts to get colder, I'll share a photo that I took at my first ever ghost hunt. I put together a "composite" of the relevant pictures.

The first image is the house where the picture was taken. The second shows the entire hallway where it happened. The third picture is the ?? what the ?? photo and the last is a picture taken only seconds later.

The background -

This was several years ago and my DH and I were on a hunt with some friends who took us along. Now, understand, I don't do this often and I've only been on a few hunts. So we're not professionals.

Anyway, this was a very old, creepy house that was in the middle of renovations so it was vacant at the time. DH and his friend decided that during "quiet time" (where we all just sat quietly and observed) he wanted to sit in the basement with a friend of his. I sat upstairs in the ballroom (the basement had spiders - lol).

According to DH who, by the way, wasn't really into the whole thing and only went along to say he did (I guess "ghost hunt" was on his bucket list!), he and his friend turned off all the lights in the basement and were navigating by flashlight and the flash of the camera. The second photo shows the door at the end of the hall that you see closer up in the last two pictures. They grabbed some of the chairs that you see and settled in.

It was pitch black.

They sat there for about 20 minutes when they heard something outside that door. DH picked up the camera and used it and the flash to illuminate the doorway. He didn't see anything. He took another picture, still nothing. But he was freaking out and they decided to come upstairs immediately.

I heard them downstairs and I was chuckling a bit

Anyway, we noticed the third photo and the white thing when we were looking at the pictures the next day.

What the heck is it? It's not there in the nearly identical photo taken just seconds later.

Some say it's some sort of reflection off a surface, perhaps the chair.

I don't know what it is but I'm betting on ghosty elephant

What do you think?

 

[Nancy]

almost looks like it could be the tip of a finger (turned sideways like it was pointing at something?) but then again there is that weird black portion on there.


Wed. nights show was ok. I say 4 maybe 4.5 ghosties. I would havegiven more if there would have been some visual proof in the second part. Like when they said they saw something in the doorways if they would have done a thermal sweep and saw something or if they had used that k meter when trying to talk to the guy and had lights going off.

First part seems like they gave up in the babies room really quick. Of course my first thought on the kid screaming while in there was it was because of the decor, such a dark gloomy looking room for a baby

 

[danalee]

Hi guys real quick, That new Ghost Adventure Show on the Travel Channel starts tonight! (its on now)

 

[Pikester]

Finally found the time to watch GH. I am going to give it

I enjoyed the kitchen noise in the first segment and thought the EVP from the 2nd segment was pretty creepy.

I just found this thread. My family loves GhostHunters. My DS(9) makes me record it every Wednesday since it comes on at bedtime.

Now, my ghost story. I went to stay with my fiance and his parents in their home in NC. At breakfast after the first night I mentioned this feeling I had of someone looking in the window at me. The parents tell my fiance, "you better tell her". Turns out there was a ghost in their house. They called him Mr. Torrence. When my fiance, now my husband, was growing up, he could hear footsteps up and down the hallway. He would tell his brother to get out of the closet, only to learn his brother was asleep in his bed. They had forwarned one babysitter about this spirit, she blew them off. She spent the rest of the night turning off the faucets in the bathrooms. Supposedly, this spirit was the ghost of a man who use to walk a train track that had since been pulled up. He would carry a lantern. The funny part was the fact this house was built on the old local "parking" spot and hubby's parents had parked there one night and watched as a light circled their car. Why they built on this property, I'll never know.

When hubby's parents divorced and they had to sell the house, they began renovating it and things starting happening even more. On the final day, my in-laws saw a ball of light and eventually a face and then it went away. They figure Mr. Torrence was telling them goodbye.

Oh, never saw that man looking in the window again, but considering the house was built on a slope and that window was 20 feet off the ground, I know it wasn't just a man.

Okay that was pretty creepy.
