You are dead on!  I spotted something strange about that whole thing too!  Also, just before all three of them first headed to the bathroom, there is a clear shot of Grant walking towards the bathroom and he does a quick diddle to his walkie that was clipped on his waist..I actually re-played the scene a few times because I couldnt believe they didnt edit that out.  No wonder there was such great "conversations" going on with that K2!  Meatloaf (or MEAT) was hilarious and I enjoyed seeing him get involved.  Nice to see someone really trying to investigate and show some enthusiasm.  I also thought the location was great and had a lot of possibilities, but disapointed as usual!  I found myself looking forward to Steve heading up to the spider room and screaming like a little girl…at least they seemed to tone that embarrasement down a bit.

OK..just watched that scene again…when they first went in the bathroom, the window was open…then they leave and discuss the whole water bottle request and they show the room again and the window is closed (no grills removed or anything)… then they go back and notice the bottle has moved and the window is again open!  Unbelievable!

The moving water bottle was too convenient for me.    Also the whole KII thing drove me nuts.   Grant was lurking off camera the whole time that thing was going off and he had a strange look, can't put my finger on it, on his face the whole time and was acting odd.

I personally thought our new BFF, Meat, did a good job but was used by J&G with the KII.    His question to the home-owner about the children being the only ones to see the dead priest was a very good one that the talent would never ask.   He was into it which can't be said for the others for a long time.

Check it out….

Howdy, I just joined this site and I have to commend everyone for the intelligent and well thought out posts I’ve read.  I remember when GH first aired and thought it was the best thing ever, finally a team of skeptics that seemed believable in their investigations.  I can’t tell you how many paranormal shows I’ve seen and websites I’ve looked at only to be terribly disappointed in what they present as supernatural evidence.  Not to mention the ones that lean on psychics as scientific proof.  Just watching them walk around spouting lines of BS makes me nauseous.

Unfortunately, it seems GH has gone down the entertainment road rather than the skeptical road of truth and sincerity.  When I watched the episode last night with the water bottle in the bathroom, I too thought the window was open in one scene and it’s nice to know that others here were able to confirm my suspicions.  Is GH even trying to hide faking evidence anymore?  That’s pretty sloppy work, they need a quality control person to come in or something.  And the K2 meter is being grossly overused, I guess viewers enjoy watching the pretty lights.  Anyone notice how the K2 went from having a couple questions asked in earlier episodes to full conversations now?  It’s only a matter of time when they contact Elvis, perhaps they’re saving that for sweeps.  At least Meatloaf was great to see, I was having Rocky Horror flashbacks all night.

I’ll still watch GH and enjoy it, but now I look at the program more as an entertainment show like Most Haunted.  I’m afraid their credibility has suffered as they try new tricks to bring ratings in.  At least it’s 10 times more watchable than GHI.  But I do miss Donna!

Does anyone besides me think this Haunted Island House with Celebrity Guest and Good Friend Meatloaf was embarrassing and cringe-worthy?

Just when I thought GH couldn't sink any lower, along comes last night's episode. Even if the water bottle and K-II "evidence" was faked, couldn't Jay, Grant, and Meat Loaf put more effort into appearing surprised, delighted, nonplussed, or whatever at what was happening, especially the water bottle? I've seen more enthusiasm and excitement from DMV or post office employees! If something like the water bottle incident happened to me, I'd jump out of pants. But our friends last night had a very ho-hum reaction.

Ask yourself if that makes any sense if no hoaxing was involved. Ask yourself how you would react.

The contempt Jay, Grant, and friends have for their viewers is almost palpable.

LOL!  It was that darn ghost opening and closing that window.  I'm positive it wasn't a still-living person outside reaching inside and moving that bottle. 

The KII meter drove me nuts, too.  "Played along like a good sport" is a good description.  That is what they are doing… play-acting.    Where are those Ghostly voice recorders they used to be so found of using?

I come away from this episode frustrated, annoyed and asking myself why I bother watching. -  I was debating whether I should give up on GH and just watch a more intelligent and thought-provoking show, like Man vs Food.  But I do enjoy this website, so I keep torturing myself by watching it.
