The Haunted Museum

It reminds me of the show A Haunting, only better acting. I'm glad it's not another GA show where they run around chasing ghosts. Each story is based on an item in the museum.

Can someone please tell me what movie clips are shown on the intro to this show? My guess they are old silent films but any ideas on what they may be?

The trading is below 6? Really, what do you expect from this show? It's a low budgeted horror series so let go of your strict criteria for rating. About the show, each episode has a different horror story. Some are scary and some are not. All the stories are told by a museum owner Zak Bagans, who collects seemingly haunted artifacts that caused troubles in the past. So entertaining to watch especially you have a bad and stressful day from your work or study. I hope there will be more seasons coming up. But spending too much time on watching this kind of show bores me, one or two episodes each time would be great.

This is by all means an above average horror anthology. It has episodes that are stronger than others and some that fall too short but in comparison to many other horror anthologies it certainly stands above plenty.

Many judge this based on Zak and disregard the actual content of the episodes. There are some complaints to be held regarding cinematography, lighting, story and acting but both one by one and as a whole they have a common theme and feeling running through.

Don't go in expecting masterful horror, expect common themes and stories, some clichés but it has plenty of creepy moments while some episodes are genuinely great and creepy.

To comment on Zak, he is a persona that some don't click with. Personally I enjoy his antics with his team on Ghost Adventures even if ghosts don't exist, they have great chemistry while Zak individually has a perchant for being overly melodramatic and this can be argued here too.

All in all, I've enjoyed all episodes in some ways and some more than others. I'm in between a 6 and a 7, closer to a 7 than a 6 as I have enjoyed many of the episodes based on the horror element. As a series stacked up to others I'd say it's a solid 6.

This show is absolutely awful. Eli Roth just isn't good at horror... the stories Bagans gives are interesting but I can't say they seem 100% believable & god .. the reenactments are just abysmal. Most of the time nothing makes sense & random stuff is added which has NOTHING to do with the original story. Why Bagans admires Roth so much is beyond me. Roth over dramatises, creates stale scenes/story lines & cliches. I much prefer Deadly possessions that was good & it deserves more seasons. I think over the years fame has gotten to Bagans head & he's changed alot.

If Roth wasn't a part of this the show would be better.
