Haunted Hospitals

Programs that have the actual witnesses tell their stories are my favorite. But the over-the-top dramatizations and "gotcha!" moments to make viewers jump is so unnecessary. A good ghost story doesn't need to be embellished. And what is with the **INCREDIBLY LOUD** background music/effects?!? It completely drowns out the dialogue, and is more annoying than creepy. Tone it down and get rid of the Halloween screampark getups.

The words they use are repeated by different people......."chills", "hair on the back of my neck stood up", "Black as night", "eyes penetrated", "eyes looked right through me", "I thought......but, I was wrong". Also, all "shadow people" don't have to "growl". If you are going try to make this sound authentic, you need to use different writers, with different styles and vocabulary. At a minimum, you need to get input from sources to change it up a little. Using a thesaurus might help. Also, don't go over-the-top with the demon stuff. The more sensation you try to make it sounds, the more ridiculous it becomes. The actors are good, but the writing and crazy stories don't work.

Why is there always just 1 witness always giving their account of their interactions? Many of these stories tell at least 2 people in countering some of the same interactions with the witness- having both would make it more believable- sharing their experiences separately and together. Did they experience the same, have they experienced separately- anyone else experience these things- more witnesses- to the same haunted hospital makes it more believable.

The shows are fun, believe what you will.

But, I find it interesting that tv producers think their "experts" are more believable if they are foreigners and speak with an accent.

The evil spirits always have dark eyes, too.

Why do all the ghosts gargle and snare like a choking cat? Really drags you right out of what could have been a potentially entertaining show.
