Ghost Adventures: House Calls

I would really love to see them try to help the family. It seems like they are only confirming presences...but not giving information or help in actually helping these families. Honestly, I would be even more terrified of living there and scared of not knowing how to fix the actual problem. I love watching the evidence but am concerned for the families. It is also REALLY weird that Zak is never there. We all started watching the show as we loved Zak but not having him on site is very odd. Is he ever going to come on calls? Still love Aaron but miss Zak. Love the one that shows the stick figures. Please work on making this better because it could be great.

Read a lot of these reviews and nearly didn't watch the series. I'm amazed how board people are they spend their free time (I don't have that sort of extra time) watching shows they know they're going to hate or dislike or have the intensions of calling it "fake" before they even tuned in to watch the show. These shows (ghost and paranormal shows) aren't for everyone, I get that. However, if you do enjoy ghost paranormal shows this is among the most entertaining PERIOD! Continue to read and you'll see I'm not even the biggest fan of Zak Bagans, yet despite his annoyance, the show still flows very well, I don't believe for a second those telling the stories unquestionably believe what they're experiencing is real. The question is, is it in their heads?

I love they're dedicated a season of shows to house calls. I always found these the most interesting in many cases and the people they help can add a very interesting aspect to the show, and the homeowners add an unpredictable aspect to the show.

I can't figure out what's going on with Zak and his long-distance attempt at investigating. There's no question he's been the keep success to this show and its longevity and I salute him for that. If anyone ever had questions about his need to be the center of attention, this show will answer that for you. The guy is literally in another state and still can't be unable to take his hands off the wheel and trust the guys he's been investigating for 2 decades! He certainly manages to be an effective team member not being physically present but at points, it's entirely too much it becomes obvious he's got deep control issues and seems to feel the need to constantly prove himself and remind the audience he's the boss and weren't to make sure everyone knows he's not relinquishing the position of team leader and subconscious it's bothering him a little bit he's not there and missing out on the credit and his shine he thinks he deserves.

If Zak wasn't such a nag I'd have given the show a 10 as my all-time favorite season of any ghost show.

This looked promising, but alas. I think this crew need to sit down one night together, watch 3 x their early episodes, then watch a couple of the latest ones and see if they too can see whats happened to them.

They used to be a TEAM, there they were, with their quote 'old school' devices, a camcorder each, and all alone in haunted areas.. all working together as one.... now? They have a film crew following them around, a recorder costing 3k? Seriously? You guys need to eat some serious humble pie.

Zak, you are now an elitist, treating everyone as inferior, you talk down to everyone, and you never used to be so... personality'less'.

And not every spirit is evil.. you are an empath, so am I, so you will probably already know that a person without their body is pure energy, that pure energy, when close to us, makes us feel a certain way (like intense butterflies, and the very air around you feels heavy) , each person has different energy levels, like a bodied person, you meet strong and weak people all the time, no different when you pass... not everyone is evil, and you showed TOTAL disrespect to the dead here.

And you have been for quite some time. If you knocked on a random house, and started talking to them the same as you do to spirits, you would get a rather harsh response, its the same with the dead, they are us... just without a body, the same as we will be some day. If you spoke to me like that i would react just as harshly, its absolutely shocking how insensitive and bad mannered this team are to the dead, Aaron tried to be respectful in this episode, but zak was having none of it. Just because someone is dead, it does not make them a demon. Stop calling every dead person evil.. especially little girls. These kids are scared enough without your crass rudeness.

Bout time you looked at yourselves in the mirror, and become the good team you used to be.

Update - I saw the 3rd episode "Auburn In Hell" and must admit this shows getting bad quick. What a horrible 3rd episode! Whoever is picking these locations and people to investigate should be fired. And is Bagans going to seriously just FaceTime the group every episode? That was another horrible idea. This show started good but now sucks. The lady in s1e3 is a horrible actor and it's blatantly obvious everything happening is fake. You'd think they would try a little harder making it seem authentic. Huge let down. If I happen to watch the next episode I may update this but I doubt it will change. I was a GA fan but that's starting to change if this is what they turn into.

OMG.

What a shame.

This is pretty damn awful and yes, unconvincing.

That S3 Auburn episode, featuring the woman who obviously is visiting an unknown "spectrum" in her head.

The guys are obviously going through the motions at this point.

Unfortunately, this cannot continue with Zak "phoning it in" like this in my opinion. I guess he obviously doesn't need the money, or is just completely germaphobed out.

It feels like the show just took a giant step backwards to the year 2020 where everyone is on Zoom again.

I had to do a double take with all of the masks being worn.

Is this the new format moving forward? If so. See ya!

RIP GA.
