Ghost Hunters (TAPS)

[Carpe Noctem]

What a bunch of fags and load of crap for the Sci-Fi channel to cash in for the virgin, pimply stay at home 25 year olds. I got home from work last night and caught the last 15 minutes of this show. If there's another word for fake, insert it here.

Basically, it's this group of people who work out of this small office and have all this expensive shit ("Ghost hunting equipment") and actually have people pay them to go check if their house is haunted. I thought, they must be joking. There's not enough people in the world to call these guys to make them make a living off this bullshit.

Well, what I saw last night was they were just finishing their investigation and they sat down with this lady and showed her all this video footage. A camera was set up in a room where you could see a table and a lamp to the right of the screen, a bed and the rest of the room. They showed the video speeding up and through out the video the lamp on the table moved several inches. The guy then proceeds to say, "When we go to sleep and go in and out of the room nobody has touched the lamp, even when -insert fags name here- sits next to the table you can see his hand isn't touching it"

What about the cord on the lamp? The idiot who slept next to the lamp, who you couldn't see because the camera cuts him off, could be pulling on the lamp by pulling the cord, and you notice the lamp only moves when both people are in the room.

Then they showed this video of the investigators walking through a backyard. On the left side of the TV screen you see what they see through their eyes, on the right, you see what you would see if you were looking through one of their "Hi-tech invention secret ghost seeking UV bullshit" in which you see some random apparition go across the screen. Anyone think both videos could've been shot at a different time and one with someone running across the screen? I do.

The worste part is that they just conned some clueless bitch out of like $100.

So anyway, I just believe this show is a crock of shit. Anyone else catch it?

I watch it every now and then...I find it funny sometimes and other times it's just kinda boring.


I by far rather watching the ghost stories that come on the travel and discovery channels.

Agreed. They talk about a lot of ancient shit and it's a hell of a lot more believeable.

just thought you would like to know that The fellas from TAPS dont ghost hunt for a living. They do not charge for their investigative services. That is why they have day jobs as plumbers. I'm sure they make some bank off of the show and it subsidises their extremely exspensive hobbie.
