If I could score this show a zero, I would

Warning: Spoilers
Total and utter scripted crap. God where do i start with what these fraudsters do: 1. The show is clearly pre-researched so that the hauntings fit around a murder or death they've pre-researched for the area. When they call out the name of the researched dead person it just happens to be them 100% of the time. It's like a detective naming a criminal in a case first time and every time, like come on....if that was the case then crimes we be solved straight away and without suspects.

2. The evidence is beyond weak and can't be verified by the audience. EVPs can be interpreted really as anything but Adam and Amy again hear what they want to hear and mould it to fit. 100% of the time though we're hearing "kchkcheeer kchkcheer kchkcheer" and are expected to believe it's whatever Adam and Amy say it is. Doing evp's seems to be their go-to for everything also, which really gets repetitive and boring. The fact that other ghost shows rarely get any evp's at all but they seem to get them every time is questionable. It's a known fact though that the type of recorder they use is the only recorder that captures unknown sounds and so much so that it was taken off the market for being faulty. I'd love for them to do evp's on another type of recorder to see if they get the same result - probably not!

3. The spirit box experiment they do is the most laughable bit of evidence I've ever seen on a ghost show. Spirits who can't say more than one word on an evp are all of a sudden saying full blown sentences and having a full on conversation with them which we're not allowed to hear. Come on now. Why they have to be blind folded for it also makes no sense. We're also expected to believe that the one listening to the headphones can't hear the questions being asked by the other, despite being less that a foot from them! Seriously, how gullible do they think we are?!

4. There is no follow up on the show. They 'solve' all these hauntings and provide answers to these families who are then supposed to feel comfort knowing that they're now living with a ghost who has a name. The fact that the family is supposed to then set 'boundaries' to live with the ghost in harmony is a joke. Or when they get some professional to provide some ritual for the spirit to cross over and we see the families or business folk saying time and time again that 'oh yes it definitely feels different in here' every time. But I'd love to hear how they're going with it all a month after the team's departure.

5. The performance that Chip Coffee puts on for each episode should be awarded with an Oscar! When they have no 'answers' from the spirits they turn to Chip who is clearly briefed in on the issue at hand and seems to nail it each and every time. The fact he's a career theatre professional though should raise some eyebrows.

6. The way they use torches as a form of response from the spirits is a joke. Unscrewing a torch will always make it turn off and on, so the fact they want us to believe that a spirit is manipulating this is funny, I could go on, but I won't. Don't waste your time with this crap as it's the most unbelievable ghost show on TV.
