My Haunted House

Always love shows with ghost tales. Are you afraid of the dark, goosebumps, a haunting, creepshow, the twilight zone. Everyone complaining about it being fake. Go ask a skeptic and they will tell you its all fake. No matter what show. Its entertainment. They said ghost hunters was fake also. So take from that what you will. The power lies in the imagination. They said Blair witch project was real also, if anyone remembers that when it first came out. P. S. The headless horseman isn't real either but I love that tale. Maybe they are actors but the names and places where changed to hide the identities. Just maybe.....

"Eyewitness accounts" are actors reading a completely fabricated script. This is being touted as true events when only a few minutes of research proves none of these things happened. Completely disrespectful to people who have had real experiences and also disrespectful to viewers who are being outright lied to.

I give this a 6 out of 10 only because they advertise the show as being a true story. After watching a few of the episodes and going online to find news of the events, I could not find the story anywhere. I love paranormal and ghost shows and I also enjoy shows on ID of murders and crimes. I can always cross-reference to the real events that took place. Have not been able to find a single one for My Haunted House. If anyone has found any for any of the so called real stories please point them out to me. In any case, the stories in this show are pretty good and if it weren't for the false advertisement of the stories being true I'd give it a 10 rating.

I just finished watching a show I recorded earlier this evening. The title was "Dead Ringer." I have DIRECTV so when I hit the info button, one of the bits of information I get is the original airing date of thst particular show. As I said, it was recorded earlier tonight, July 25, 2015. After watching the main part of the show a message came on the screen saying "Seven Years Later." Well the events of the show were from late September, 2008 making seven years later...September, 2015. Hmmmm.... but the show was originally broadcast for the first time in July, 2015...a full two months before the show had its ending. Take it for what it is worth.

At first glance, this program appears to be similar to My Ghost Story and Paranormal Witness (two programs I quite enjoy). However, after watching a few episodes of My Haunted House, it dawned on me that the "eyewitnesses" are paid actors (and not very good ones, at that) telling a story which is 100% scripted.

Obviously, the re-enactments would use actors, just like other shows in this genre. However, I strongly suspect that the "eyewitness accounts" have all been dreamed up by scriptwriters. The "eyewitnesses" telling the stories are mostly very unconvincing. The acting is so wooden, I'm surprised I didn't realise it was fake much sooner than I did.

Realising that the program is fake simply sucked all of the enjoyment out of it for me.

A clue to the show being completely fake is given during the credit sequences. At the start of the program it states "The following two stories are inspired by documented paranormal encounters". Reading between the lines, "inspired by" translates to "completely made up".

I believe it should be openly disclosed that this program features works of fiction rather than "eyewitness accounts" of paranormal encounters.
