Although I have experienced a paranormal event at a hotel famous for having a ghost, I watched this show expecting to learn something, or even just where other hotels have such events. Although this series could have taken a legitimate path, I can say as a fact that they, at best, exaggerate and embellish if not make up the events. It seems as if they might be combining events from other properties in with the hotel they're profiling. Ask yourself, for example, why they do not actually name the hotel specifically. Just "a hotel in the southeast" for example. Before my own experience, I considered 95% of these stories to be fake. I still do, and programs like this are the reason. Usually someone is trying to sell you something. In this case (as with all such programs) it's ratings and advertising dollars. And hey, at least some B-grade actors get a little work for a while. Watching this series is generally a waste of time. It's not entertaining, and definitely not fact-based. It's easy enough to Google hotels known for ghosts. Go. Take a trip. Stay in one. You may or may not have an experience, but your time will be better spent than watching this crap.
