Most of you may be familiar with the highly popular ''Most Haunted'' series. It may of started off with much interest in the research into genuine paranormal phenomena but ended up becoming ''The X-Files'' (many series, lots of episodes and it was acting). Go back to 1996 when the Discovery Channel first aired ''Ghosthunters'' and you could not get a more realistic and genuine documentary about the paranormal. Relying more on witness testimony and interviews with the professionals (scientists, historians and psychologists) this series accounts for more of an informative view on the subject. Some great locations are shown ranging from battlefields to bypasses. Historical buildings such as castles and old inns also feature throughout the series. You will get to know at least half of the scientists/psychologists names at the end of your DVD viewing as they do appear more than once in interviews as their background knowledge is substantial in concluding theories about the topics covered about the paranormal. I also love the eerie music at the opening/closing credits of each episode. This adds that extra bit of weight to the overall audio presentation of the series with some atmospheric music during episodes as well. Overall then one of the best paranormal documentaries, certainly up there with ''Arthur C. Clarke's'' series and the Michael Aspel one ''Strange but True''. It will open your mind.
