Paranormal State is a wonderful show featuring what we call "paranormal" from ghosts to spirits and UFOs. The Paranormal Research Team didn't sign to make the show to scare the wits off people. They made the show to help those who are haunted realize there are other people out there who know what they're going through. The PRA Team help families get closure in their lives. Lorraine Warren told me this, and she's completely right. The closure that they give to families, plus the overall help with keeping the family together is amazing. If you want to be a little frightened, amazed, intrigued and satisfied, I highly recommend this team of paranormal investigators who know the best ways to help those who are haunted.

Even if Ryan wasn't such of an annoying person, this would still be bad, i said even if, where do we begin? "directors log" You will have the urge to snatch his tape recorder and pound it with a hammer or punt it into a lake, a haunted lake of course. Oh how i wish "dead time" was more literal as opposed to what they refer to it as, but alas, no death, maybe a pillow out of place or a "humming noise" oh wait thats the cat. I actually expected to see some sort of evidence or at least something to verify their escapades, don't worry you wont see anything you that you would not see on a normal day.An entire season and what do they have to show for it, um nothing. No in fact they have less than nothing, they have a waste of time. They took my challenge, the do something for the paranormal challenge. Now in this you actually do something for the paranormal, you could say go on camera and say "i love the paranormal so much I'll draw stick figures of ghosts" or " I love the paranormal so much I'll film hot co-eds pretending to be ghost hunters" you would be wasting film, but wasting it for the paranormal. Or you could say "I'll mess with a demon" but don't say it's name you might get hurt, and you know god doesn't like that, that would be quite a thing for god but he wouldn't like that so don't do that. So i asked them to waste time for the paranormal and they followed suit, they went into an old building looking for "mothman", it was a waste of time, it made no real difference at all, it had no effect, we learned nothing new, it was a waste of time and film.There amazing detective work is just so uncanny, "well we found your problem" a cat died here so were going to psychically communicate with that cat and tell it to move on, kind of throw some catnip at it, and it'll be OK......directors log...." Captain log star date 541.2 ...oh i mean " directors log, i just brought on a few new investigators, a couple 8's and 9's but this chic is a 10....um yeah....we have a new case... strange things happening.... .......focusing on one of the children.....were going to investigate.." Now we will bring is a psychic, we haven't told them anything this is TV trust us,

This show was rushed, and relied heavily on surprise cuts to commercials (When it came back from commercial, the noise or "surprise" was something simple like a mouse) This is a pure rip-off of Ghost Hunters and it attempts to go "beyond" them, and fails miserably. Also, what is with the Directors log thing? Is this star trek? It just ruins the novelty of this show, which wore off quick. The only reason it's been watched is that people want to laugh at the pure anti-climatic nature of it. They never find anything, and most likely never will. Funnily enough, they always point out something that is the thing they are "hunting" and guess what?! It's the local radio station's tower light that is blinking red!

The thing that makes this show different than shows like Ghost Hunters is that they look for solutions rather than some tech junkies come to your house and say "Yep, you got something here, all right...or maybe not. This is what we got, draw your own conclusions." Whether you believe in ghosts or not, they leave places better than they find them with the quieting of areas quelled by unexplained noises or activity.They leave people with a sense of peace and there is nothing wrong with that.The show is edited to make things far more interesting than walking around with a camera waiting for things to go bump in the night.I know I'll keep watching and so will my friends.
