I love Ghost Hunters. Really, I do. But there are times when I simply wonder "What are you thinking?" Here's my top five stupid things Ghost Hunters do.
Nearly every team asks the question, "Is that you that is here?" Come on, folks. Get a clue. What are you expecting for an answer? "No, I'm not here but the ghost of a serial killer is right behind you?"
And then there is in the inevitable query, "Do you not know you are dead?" What a way to break it to a person. If I've been hanging around for a couple of hundred years not knowing I'm dead, I don't think I might find your news a bit upsetting.
Just because ghosts are old doesn't mean they are deaf. What's with the whispering to explain what you are going to do? If there's a ghost there, he can hear you!
Okay. Let's be reasonable folks. If you are going to provoke a ghost don't you think announcing your intentions might give him a bit of clue to what you are up to?
These ghosts have been hanging around for centuries and probably aren't up-to-date on the terms used to describe all the ghost hunting gadgets. Lose the techie terms, please.
How about trying to talk to the ghost in language he understands and giving him some credit once in a while. Just because he's a ghost doesn't mean he's stupid or deaf.
LOL H5!
Good article. I always think it's funny when they talk to "ghosts" in English but they are at a haunted location like Brazil or France.
