Celebrity Help! My House Is Haunted

Casper the Ghost cartoons were more convincing!!!

Seriously, after watching 3 episodes the pattern will start to reveal itself. Don't waste your time on this nonsense, unless you're just looking to kill an hour because you're bored out of your mind and there is literally nothing else to watch.

Cheerio.

What a load of rubbish, it's shocking this even got made. The acting and made up evidence is terrible and obviously fake, some of the "celebrities" I'd expect this from but surely Toyah Wilcox doesn't need to embarrass herself by doing this kind of thing!

We got season 2 and 3 a good while back on #DISCOVERYPLUSUSA and I LOVE THIS SHOW!! They just now gave us season 1 in the States and I'm hoping for a season 4 soon! I love this rich history there and the places and lands are absolutely breathtaking! 🇬🇧🇺🇸 #HelpMyHouseIsHauntedSeason4.

Ghai, Harris, and Lawman yet again peddling their nonsense.

They have no credibility whatsoever - well, except for the myth they create of themselves.

Lawman is particularly annoying with his fantastic claims - particularly of being an 'ordained exorcist'. Doesn't he know exorcists are APPOINTED within the Catholic church? Obviously the truth doesn't matter to him as long as he can make some cash from his con.

Then we have Ghai, another fool who thinks he knows everything, but it soon becomes clear he knows nothing as soon as he opens his mouth. Or perhaps he knows very well he knows nothing an relies on the gullibility of the audience.

What to say about Harris. She claims to have all kinds of qualifications, from psychologist to herbalist, and an expert on haunted dolls. She still make claims about being a company owner - one which folded in 2015. Just another chancer.

And all of this really shines through in the programme, which is as ridiculous as the three presenters. It is junk.

A tweak on the usual formula, as it involves 'celebrities', which gives it another angle of interest. I love the local history & seeing the fab buildings - not the new 1970s-esque boxes - but the older, unspoilt, places are so beautiful, the Pubs are heavenly & I feel envious watching them explore!) Some screeching & swearing but less so than other shows, I appreciate Ian Lawman's more calm, dignified approach. Barri wigs out but is endearing with it, & along with Jayne the 3 of them make a great team.

All these 'ghost-hunt' shows have pressure to fill a paid TV slot (tho' I often wish this show was longer) so there's embellishment that can feel forced, pre-scripted stories with convienient interpretations of electronic 'messages', & I'm not convinced the Mediums really have no earthly pre-knowledge of a location! - but under it all there's interesting truth, some genuine activity that makes you think; all in all it's enjoyable entertainment that delivers.

*Roman Catholicism is not the only Christian denomination that ordains Exorcists :)
