I was intrigued by this, finding it on hulu, and love paranormal anything, even documentaries, but I was watching the first 10 minutes or so and saw a familiar face from one of the worst paranormal shows I have ever encountered (Paranormal State). Ryan Buell. And not far behind Ryan was the beginning of religious overtones (when attempting to watch Paranormal State, everything is about demons, not the scientific possibility and evidence of a spirit entity of a once living human being). I quit watching, couldn't get past first 10 minutes or so. Anything involving that hack is not legitimate. Avoid. Unless of course you looooved Paranormal State.

I was surprised that Ryan Buell finally felt free enough to share some of his story, which he has kept to himself up until now. I understand why he felt abused, and he was. Sad what happened to him and Chad, and this is the crux of the movie for me. Not sadness, but family, and how the paranormal effects "normal" people & the ones around them. We attach stigmas to things we don't want the neighbors to know. I hope that in time, these stigmas will just go away, because they are just prideful and stupid. Life is full of things that we don't understand, or are capable (at this time) to perceive. I grew up with "things" that scared my mother and my dad said didn't exist, and thought was stupid. I kept a lot of it to myself, and I grew up being scared all the time as I didn't really know how to handle "things". I know how to handle "things" now, but it would have been nice to have made it through high school without being a "weirdo", and scared out of my mind. Good movie, guys, keep it up.
... View Morethis documentary was so fake, the cinematography was mediocre and the attempt to fool someone into thinking this is real is just a joke. i sincerely do not want someone else to pay money to watch this movie and be as let down as i was. I was only able to watch the first 10 minutes before my computer froze up on me, which was a blessing in disguise. If you ever watch Ghost Adventures on the travel channel then you know what a real paranormal documentary is suppose to look like. I have read several things online about these guys from the a&e show being frauds.
