Is Ghost Adventures Fake

Not a week goes by where I don’t receive some type of e-mail asking me if Ghost Adventures is fake or is the evidence that the Ghost Adventures crew presenting as physical evidence actually real.

Unfortunately, this is an easy answer. But if you forced me to give you a simple yes or no my answer would be yes it’s fake but not entirely fake. You see shows like Ghost Adventures, Ghost Hunters and any other paranormal show only stay on the air if they get ratings so from time to time some of the evidence may have an explainable answer or worse yet some evidence may have been conjured up or doctored in order to make it seem as if you’re viewing something supernatural.

One thing to keep in mind is that Zak and Nick have both gone to film school and know how to manipulate viewers. Baking is something subtle as lighting or just changing the tone of their voice in order to make your mind jumped to a conclusion they want to see. Next time you watch Ghost Adventures people account for how many times the guys become overly dramatic because after all, they have been doing this for a few years so they shouldn’t always be scared by every little thing that goes bump in the night. Also keep track of what you’re watching and watch for clever video editing techniques which become more obvious if you watch the show via DVR and play a scene back a few times.

Do I think is wrong that the show has some fake elements to it? Not really. You see shows like Ghost Adventures and Ghost Hunters do something that most of us in this field cannot and that is bring the paranormal phenomenon’s to light and get other people talking openly about experiences they themselves have had. The more people talk the more data experts are able to collect which will allow for some answers to things we can’t currently explain someday in the not-too-distant future.

So next time you see Zak with his tight shirt and spiky hair on the Travel Channel it’s okay to be skeptical about what you view because in all likelihood some of it isn’t exactly what you’re being told is however be sure to keep an eye out because I am certain some actual evidence will manifest itself on a television near you. After all these shows are just there to make money for the network with advertisers and because it’s not PBS ratings do matter.
