My Haunted House

"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.

If you like fiction this is the show for you. "Witness accounts," extremely bad actors. If you research the claims in the episodes you will see it is pure fiction.

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.

I don't care if the shows are real or fake. They are great stories and grip you from the beginning. My complaint is that you constantly advertise "All New Shows" and they are reruns. Week after week of disappointments. Since you have had such incredible success with the acting and directing, what is the problem? Have you run out of stories? I'd send you mine, but it only lasted for less than 5 seconds and never replayed. If it is creative writing, you should be good to go. There are thousands of writers who would love to see their work on the screen. And new writers who would contribute for no more than screen credits.
