Paranormal 911

Sorta repetitive story's that are all very similar to each other. Not sure I believe all these are real. Conclusion 5 out of 10.

I love these types of paranormal shows and this one did not disappoint; when you think of ghost stories you think of haunted houses, abandoned buildings or even creepy cemeteries. You don't really think about paranormal activity occurring when first responders or police officers are called to a scene. Very good show! I can't wait for another season...

Most of these stories are pretty ridiculous. In episode 3, there's a "paramedic" named Ceredwyn Alexander telling her ghost encounter. The episode ended saying she was still an EMT and counsels other paramedics after tramatic experiences. I was curious about her unusual name, so I looked it up. She has a website where she offers to do cheesy "Victorian Seances". I couldn't help but laugh. Of course she does. If you want to giggle at the overdramatics, give it a watch. If you want to be scared, choose something else.

I do enjoy these types of shows. This one is pretty good. It's nice to hear First Responder encounters. However, the production reuses sets and clips like crazy.

It might not be noticable if you only watch one episode a week, but if binge-watching one episode after another it becomes very obvious. The same security officer in the same office...once in the UK and again in North America. The same house in different stories. Even some of the "paranormal expert" commentary is used multiple times. The same hallways, stairwells, and so on.

I appreciate that this show provides people's last names and locations and appears to be credible. I do not appreciate the producers adding in the "extra" visuals. For example, a guard was watching a dead body all night and he states he saw a white mist coming from the body. Okay. But the producers made the dead body shake and move like crazy AND have the white mist come out at the same time. I am thinking "The witness did NOT state the body was moving at all!". I don't mind them reusing other pieces of dramatizations as long as they do not change the witnesses' actual memories. I like true memories of what happened by honest people.
