It's very much like the Discovery show A Haunting. I felt a little mislead from the commercials. It seemed as if I was going to be watching actual footage that people video taped. However, it's just re-enactments as far as the first episode goes. The first story in the episode was decent. The second story was much better even though it was shorter. I enjoyed the way the people who it happened to told the story. Unlike Discovery's version of this genre the people show emotion. They pause and you can tell they are genuinely scared just by retelling the story. It kind of gives you a feeling of those late nights you spend with friends when people start talking about weird things that have happened to them. So I enjoyed the personal feeling of the show. Overall, the show is not new in it's idea. For the genre though it is pretty good. Hopefully, they do bring in some type of real footage!
This series is very entertaining! It contains some lesser known stories about the generic haunted house and such, and sometimes it contains more famous stories, like the Travis Walton story (Personally, my favorite). Though, If you're the type of person who likes details, evidence, polygraphs; this is not the series to watch. This series recreates the stories that the witnesses explain, simple as that; It's more for an entertaining purpose than a "documentary" one. So, If you want to figure out whether or not these stories are real, you'll have to figure that out yourself. Look it up online, and maybe if you're lucky, a documentary group might have covered all the details. I love my details, and sometimes when the story is extremely interesting,which happens often, I look it up and go on a voyage throughout Google to answer my questions and make my own assumptions.
I still recommend this to my fellow supernatural lover. You may learn a few things on here.

Paranormal Witness is a documentary style, high-production testimonial show of people who have witnessed some pretty crazy. I wasn't expecting much, but the first episode was pretty awesome. If you like spooky stories, like I do, this is right up your alley... it's really well done, and the stories are narrated by alleged first hand witnesses who tell their stories. They all come off as likable, realistic and not annoying, whew. That was a definite concern for me going in.
Each episode covers 2-3 stories, and this would work really well as a Halloween marathon show with friends.
Definitely check this one out.

I love shows about paranormal activity- I am not sure I believe it, but they are really fascinating and are fun to watch. When I heard this show was being made, I got really excited because it seemed like it showed real footage and photos from ghost encounters. I was a little disappointed because the first and second episodes didn't have any, although they were still quite scary! This last third episode though- was terrifying! I had pillows on my face while I was watching on the couch, the real pictures and video are what made it so horrifying. I look forward to the future episodes, and hope they get progressively more frightening! I recommend this show to anyone wanting a good scare :)
Paranormal Witness is a dramatized documentary series about various people who have had paranormal experiences. I've always had an interest in the paranormal and this series peaked it even higher. The only way I can describe this show is if it was a combination of The Haunted and Zero Hour (2004). Each episode kept me on the edge of your seat with it's gritty atmosphere and unexpected scares. Even with that said, there are some episodes I have a bit of a hard time believing. For example, I thought the UFO episode and the imaginary friend episode were both a bit of a stretch. While they are still interesting, I always seem to have a hard time believing that they actually happened. But that's what makes this show so great. Even if you don't believe these stories, they're still very enjoyable. So if you have an interest in the paranormal or just horror or suspense in general, then you'll most definitely enjoy Paranormal Witness.

- TriviaRebroadcast in April 2021 as "Paranormal Witness: True Terror". The Travel Channel is notorious for re-titling its shows and episodes, as well as splicing segments of two previously aired titles to make new episodes. This becomes confusing when trying to find a thus re-branded old title.
