I've been finding the 2008 season of Paranormal State on A&E pretty entertaining so far. Entertaining enough to start a thread discussing it. I don't put a lot of stock into the credibility of this show, but it sure makes my Monday nights fun! Last night's episode, "Demon of the House" was SO controversial, on so many levels, it's hard to know where to begin: the obelisk, the demon possession, the guy's wife urging him to admit the demon is telling him to kill his entire family, the psychological evaluation... In the very least, I was riveted! Anybody else on here see this? Discuss it here. If you haven't seen it, here is part 1: And part 2: Also, here is a link to A&E- they have an interactive investigation where you see if you can solve one of the more difficult cases. Other great links here: www.aetv.com/paranormal-state/Another link, this to the Paranormal Zone featuring a number of paranormal shows- if you click on PS, you'll see background info. Interestingly, they say in the first video, "We are not ghost hunters; we do not go to abandoned buildings. We go only to homes with families that need help." Such a paradigm shift from TAPS and their ego-boosting adventures- www.biography.com/paranormal-zone/paranormal-zone-PAS.jsp

Yeah, it was definately riveting. I don't often get the creeps from paranormal shows, but that device and that man's story definately creeped me out. I haven't scrolled through all the posts on here yet, but am going to be looking for more info on that device they used.

The Paranormal Zone link I posted above has a number of links to other shows- I thought it was interesting that the links for the Paranormal State show goes into the background of the investigators, Chip Coffey, and how the group was formed, etc. It goes into shows like Haunted History, Ghostly Encounters, Dead Famous, Psychic Investigators, and Perfectly Strange. Neat stuff-

I believe I could dream about Ryan invading my home somehow... But he would have to leave Chip Coffey at home. <shivers>

I am just getting a chance to watch this video. Its very interesting. It the "demon" suppose to be the one that is talking thru the device. I mean if they really exist this could be a huge break thru for the paranormal community.

Thanks for posting the links, Krystal! The investigation took a strange twist when Ryan et al. figured out that the woman really actually DID want the ghost around. In the end, when she was sobbing that it was hard to let go of her ghostly 'boyfriend' (for lack of a better term), I realized that this woman needed some professional help of the non-paranormal kind.
