Explination behind the Ghost Hunters Vid.

So I started watching it a while back so I could watch all the seasons. Now I've caught up with the current season and I'm waiting for them to restart on Sep 3. I can't wait!

Do I really believe in ghosts and the paranormal? No, I don't really think so. But the show is kind of fun to watch. I'm very much like my mother in the fact that I like mysteries. And every 'case' they go on is like a mystery. Is the house haunted or is it all just normal things like loose floor boards or pipes banging against the wall? (I know I'm a geek right?)

But I think what really makes the show interesting is that unlike most Ghost Hunter groups. They go into these places to 'de-bunk' or 'disprove' a haunting. By trying to give them normal reasons like pipes banging or thin walls. And most of the time they say the house isn't haunted and it's all normal things.

But there is the occasional episode where they catch something on film or audio that they just can't explain otherwise. Like things moving on it's own when the only thing up there was the camera. Those clips are pretty cool to watch. Now I don't know if I believe in 'EVPs' or 'Electronic Voice Phenomenon' where they catch a voice on a voice recorder that wasn't heard by the human ear. But played back on the tape they can hear it. But as I said before I watch it because it's kind of fun.

The sense of the mystery gives me that sense of adrenaline rush and suspense. Which is also another reason why I like watching scary movies or this T.V show. It's just fun to be scared! (Family: No I am not giving you permission to try to scare me at every turn.)
