After every cut to commercial, the production spends roughly between 45 seconds to 2 minutes recapping what was seen before the commercial break. Since there are around 5 or 6 cuts to commercial per half hour, this would be very hard to put into DVD format, as there would be too much repeat footage. The same is true of similar format Travel Channel "I saw a ghost" type series.
The series format consists of a person being interviewed allegedly telling their real-life story of a house haunting, and then actors recreating the story. However, nearly every single person---whether male or female---speaks in the same monotone cadenced lilt when telling the story, without much emotion at all, as if they were scripted and rehearsed.
With very few exceptions, such as Home Sweet Hell, the people being interviewed are all actors, just like the ones recreating their tall tale. This show is presented as true facts having happened as the person tells it, but most of these are fictitious stories that never happened. The lady from Home Sweet Hell claimed that her husband was killed by the entity in their home and that she would never stop fighting it till she died: she died barely a year after recording this show.
The names and locations having been changed "to protect the anonymity" of real persons, there is no way to research and corroborate whether the stories presented allegedly really did happen---or at least, if they were recorded as ever having been reported.
The actors who reenact the story are the exact same physical type as the person telling it to the camera in the interviews.
