Haunted

Beggining with episode 1 i was intrigued, but my questions kept piling up.. then when it came to episode 2 i stopped watching. Netflix needs to understand they have to give more information to these accounts. it's one person telling their story, poorly. there are no names, facts or evidence period. I'm really aggravated with Netflix's sloppiness on this show because it had potential to be very interesting. After watching the second episode, you will have one million questions & zero answers leaving you completely unsatisfied.. Would absolutely not recommend to anyone.

This show just seems so exaggerated that you immediately think that it isn't real. These are people making up stories who trying to make a quick buck. I'm only two episodes in but if any of these events occurred, some newspaper or someone would have tried to make it known. Ridiculous.

Usually Netflix tries to at least keep their original content somewhat interesting or at least decent caliber entertainment, but this show is down right ridiculous on all levels. They focus on "true" haunting accounts that showcase people that I just could just not even attempt to take seriously due to their hysterical demeanor and almost over the top claims that made it seem like they were paid actors to appear actually haunted. Now I'm not saying that some of these people haven't actually been victims of some form of hauntings, but the embellished stories on this show seem like watered down cliche horror shorts that the production team/Netflix came up with to pass as true accounts. The emotions portrayed just don't seem authentic from the people at all and the show overall seems like a cheap addition in time for Halloween. The production value is decently solid for the re-enactments with some ok visuals no matter how ridiculous. The only episode that was at least passable and effective at times was the abduction story which had some genuinely well done visuals and intensity though it might be embellished as well. As a whole, the series is almost more comical than anything.

Not sure why so many bad reviews. I compare it to a camp site stories. The re-enactments , video production looks good. Sounds good if you have surrounded sound. I live in the Dallas area and recognized the people in the born cursed episode, I know there not actors but are very successful family. I would say out of the 2 season there's probably 2 episodes i can do without, other than that they were very interesting and good.

What made this series so poor was that it is advertised as supposedly true stories based on interviews from the victims. Perhaps the "true story" aspect was intended to make it seem scarier, but in reality, it was a distraction. First of all, as other reviewers are saying, there was no evidence to back up any of these accounts. Second, the stories were so over the top that it was highly unlikely they were true. If they would have left out the true aspect, cut out the interviews, and just made this a scary anthology series of ghost stories, it could be pretty good.
