Not too sure how old everyone is so some of you might not remember this (UK only too) But did any of you watch Ghostwatch?? It was a BBC program that was shown in 1992. Everyone believed it was a live real program but turns out it was all a hoax. Apparently it frightened the heck out of people and there was a huge backlash at the BBC. It had Sarah Greene, Michael Parkingson doing the 'investigation' of a haunted house. One guy apparently hung himself and it was blamed on what he saw on the program!! The reason I ask is because I have ordered the DVD!! It was banned from ever been shown again on the BBC but they finally allowed it to released on DVD a while ago. I never watched the original as I was only 11yrs old, but I am expecting it to be fairly spooky!! Although I imagine it would have been much more frightening if you thought it was a like show!! ...

I found proof on youtube that Most Haunted could be a Hoax.....Or at least it proves Derek is a fake. Either way, it shows they act out most of it. I don't remember Ghostwatch But i would have only been 5yrs at the time, so mother probably never let me watch it XD _________________ There are always explanations...There are NO accidents... ...
