Ghosts of Shepherdstown

As a descendent of Thomas Shepherd I plan to watch this show closely. There is a strong possibility some of these ghosts may be related to me.

I have NO problem admitting I'm a fan of Nick Groff however I am NOT a fan of Ghosts Of Shepherdstown. at all! I tried to like this show, even watching some episodes several times but it didn't help. It doesn't take a medical degree to know that if something isn't breathing & doesn't have a heartbeat feel free to stick a fork in it, it's DONE! Unfortunately this show never had a beating heart, therefore it never connects with paranormal TV fans. Many paranormal need to reenact scenes but, unless I missed it, this show doesn't make any mention of reenactments. If a good number of the scenes aren't reenacted by a traveling theater group from Possum Grape Arkansas & we're supposed to believe they're all real.....ummm, NO! Thankfully for fans of Nick Groff he has another TV project that IS worth your time each week. Add to the cast former investigator on Paranormal State, Katrina Weidman, and you're sure to be ENTERTAINED by Nick & Katrina on Paranormal Lockdown. If you're a glutton for punishment feel free to tune in to Ghosts of Shepherdstown but you can't say you weren't warned! BTW - I recently read an article but have NOT been able to verify, that Ghosts of Shepherdstown is coming back for a season 2, oh....that's ... yeah, that's ......

I do find moments of this show interesting and enjoyable,there seems to some scripting.Faking paranormal sticks out like a sore thumb and there are hints of it here.

I frown upon the all mighty psychic medium who claims to have powers to cast away curses and demons,The whole idea that some ghost "never walked the earth in human form" its a hard pill to swallow,They cant prove that or even disprove it

To me a demon is like an angry grizzly bear,a simple growl or saying demon doesn't cut it with me ,Anybody can do that.

Nick Groff built his reputation on facts and evidence here there more speculation then investigation.

Whenever paranormal investigators cannot explain something they turn to folklore to fill in the gaps rather then say I cant explain it...

There's just too much focus on the cast overreacting to something then actually showing us what their experiencing ..too much presentation rather then investigating

I'm an avid fan of paranromal investigation shows which have become a bit stale on the premise. This show offers a completely new and original premise that is actually rather fascinating. As some other reviewers said Season 1 has parts that may seem a bit stiff and rehearsed sounding but after all, there are some reinactments and storytelling by the people who reportedly experienced the activity, not professional actors. The premise of the show is that several haunting are happening in a quant and picturesque West Virginia town rife with history. They do a good job of tying in history and research and don't rely on the cliched "what was that?! " and "oh my god!" exclamations.

Season 2 is even better! The premise in this season is that the paranormal activity has spread to nearby towns. It pulls you along tying the paranormal activity together into a pretty believable story. This is a well organized storyline that is both entertaining, intriguing and chilling. If this were the storyline of a horror movie, it would be a hit. This is one of the most original paranormal investigator shows out there.

Seriously this is the worse paranormal show I've ever seen. I've watched wall to wall paranormal shows for about 3 months and this one isn't the slightest bit scary, how on earth did it get renewed.

The only highlight was the psychic sensitive investigator who looks like a mix of someone who has just smelt something bad or Dr Steve, a face of permanent confusion.

All the cliche "what was that?", "Is that you?" & "Are you with us now?"

Absolute fake garbage.
