Terror in the Woods

This show is now named "These Woods are Haunted", although I have no idea why they changed the name, but I suspect it's to let the viewer know that it's a paranormal type show and not a survival show. I remember watching the first season when it was first released under the other title, and I could have sworn that the episodes were different.

I like the fact that they show where each event was supposed to have happened. The aerial views and outdoor footage helps sell the show. I did notice once or twice where a bit of animation was used, so I hope they refrain from that. In the future because it detracts from the show. The reenactment actors are pretty good for the most part and look like the people who they are supposed to be portraying. I thought season 2 was best, so I took note of the directors and from what I could tell the same three directors were used through the series, so I'm not sure what the magic formula was there. Maybe the stories.

Many of the stories lean heavy toward bigfoot, but I guess that's to be expected when the show takes place in the woods. I did appreciate the other ones that were sprinkled in, ghosts, spirits, shadow entities, ufo, dogman, etc. I'd like to see them continue with more seasons because I think it could get even better with a little tightening up.
