Disappointing

"Just received this DVD and was sorely disappointed. I guess I've been spoiled by only watching the good ones with David Wells and Ciaran O'Keefe so far. The THREE episodes on here (yes, only three) all have that over dramatic/over acting Derek A. in them. In addition, they were not at all scary, nothing substantial happened in any of them, and I actually fell asleep during the last one. Very sorry I wasted my money on this. Derek's constant yammering throughout all three episodes gets old fast. Seriously, the man does not shut up. I recommend season 7 and up only."
Leaves a haunting, lingering feeling

"Although similar, but different , from Ghost Hunters, I do reccomend this show. Where as Ghost Hunters applies a more scientific aproach, this show uses a more psychic approach. Yvette Fielding is quite charming as the frightened host, often screaming and running, then scolding herself because she knows she is the one who should pose a brave face. It's neat to hear exactly what is being said here, because on The Travel Channel, they bleep some stuff out which bleeds over the stuff we could hear, and therefore we sometimes lose the meaning. But here, without the bleeps, we can understand better what is occuring.
Ghost Hunters film areas where there aren't humans about ,or leave recorders about, and tend to capture more in manifestations or voices, where as Most Haunted tend to use a psychic, then post notes either proving what the psychic said was accurate, or not. Sometimes Most Haunted captures odd things on voice or film.
Do I like Most Haunted? Yes I do. I think the hostess fits the show perfectly, and shows she is not above being frightened herself. Do I like Ghost Hunters? Yes, I do, and I think thier approach to actually prove something is very worth while."
