The studio behind Nightshift also make a handful of other paranormal shows that I enjoy, and this one is mostly on par. (Paranormal Emergency, Haunted Hospitals, etc.)
The narrator's voice is way over-the-top and sounds more ridiculous than ominous, and the fake "Hallway Cams" aren't necessary. I can't tell if they think I believe it's real, therefore insulting the viewer's and my intelligence, or if it's just trying to create a narrative by showing you parts of the story.
Note: Unless you can find someone who has a narrative voice similar to Anthony Call in "A Haunting", I'd just do without that effect.

This show is absolutely terrifying to watch and keeps you fully entertained throughout. Hopefully they make a second series.

I love, love this show!! I discovered it one night, where I was living in a creepy old 1920s building in a not so safe area. I turned off the lights, cranked up the a/c and had me the most Halloweenish experience in the middle of the year!
The voice-over makes the show, along with the cool intro credits, bathed in an eerie teal blue light. Production selected a very capable narrator who clearly rises up to the occasion and makes this show very entertaining.
I'd like to point out that this is a show for Zillennials, so yes, all the Travel Channel "interviewee/based on a true story" series are recapping the last 7 minutes shown, after commercial break. (Not sure how that would fare in a DVD without commercials? Might be weird!) And yes, I was very upset myself the first time I watched A Haunting (I think that's the first of this kind that I saw on the TC). Yes, it was very unnerving or frustrating, but once I knew what to expect, I relaxed about it. I can take the time to look at my computer screen, grab a bite or go to the loo. It's a pity that there's a lot less show because of that, but they take care of viewers who "tuned in in the middle of the show". (Think Dragnet, where Jack Webb had to tell us, at every single episode intro, that he was a cop and his partner was Gannon, while he was Friday!) Like that.
One thing that I lament: the production must read these reviews here and cancels shows on a whim. Please don't! Millions will not make an IMDb account. Millions won't vote. Millions don't leave reviews. I represent millions who are thoroughly entertained by this show. Please, please: we NEED entertaining shows like these. They are very spooky without gore. Perfect! (I like to be thrilled and spooked, not grossed out!)
Other similar shows that came and went but need to give us many more episodes: Paranormal 911. Paranormal Emergency. Paranormal Witness (though that's SyFy channel!) Believers. Extreme Paranormal Witness/Believers. A Haunting. My Haunted House. My Horror Story and (maybe) Haunted Hospitals. (I always get bored watching that last one!)
I hope the production reconsiders. IDK if they'll ever go back to reviews of 4 year old shows, but come on now! 4 idiots leaving negative reviews do NOT represent America! When we love something, we are guilty of not leaving reviews, we are often only moved when we are discontented.
Kudos to the production and PLEASE MAKE MORE on time for Halloween. Thank you! (Please rate YES if you agree, and what a pity that this website doesn't allow non-users without account to vote reviews. THAT would accurately reflect America's opinion!)

I made it a full 8 minutes before tapping out. Can't do it any further than that. In that time I heard a few repetitions of the action with narration that is purposefully done to sound deep and foreboding.
Then at the 8 minute mark, they summarize, review and replay scenes of what they have just shown us?! What the hell people !!!

Reenactments are garbage. Investigators come in to check things out and set up all these cameras and recorders yet there's no actual footage shown, what kind of crap is that? Another one of those ridiculous fake paranormal shows that flood the Travel channel!!

I tapped out by episode 2. They tried WAY too hard to be scary, to the extent that it just came off excessively cheesy and way overstimulating. I honestly felt like we had a stronger focus on the investigative side of the paranormal in 2023 and that the over the top "evil entity" narrative filled with bogus jump scares, fake sound effects and fake footage would start to come to an end. If you really want a good paranormal show, watch Kindred Spirits. This show was just way too much ridiculousness, from the narrator to the constant fake screams and startle sounds. It plays out like an over budgeted horror movie begging to be relevant. Some of the stories with the interviewees are pretty cool, that's the only reason it got 2 stores. Way too overdone and inauthentic.
