Did anyone see Most Haunted last week?  The Travel Channel aired a new Most Haunted (frankly, I thought it was off the air).  I've not watched that show in ages – tired of all the screams and faking.  But, since I was feeling jaded with GH, I decided to watch it for the laugh.  I was struck all over again by the difference in technique – with MH doing their vigils with large groups in rooms, using glasses for seances.  The only interesting occurence was in room 401 – with that pesky closet again.  But I will commend MH for having stationed a locked off camera both inside the closet and outside, from across the room, where it covered the door from top to bottom.  Whille their psychic was drawing in a chair near the closet, you can see the door open slowly.  They captured the opening on both cameras.  I'm not sure if the door was latched ahead of time, but you can clearly see that no one is in the closet to open the door.  I thought it was interesting evidence; wondered what you all thought.

At the very least, I thought kudos to MH for actually locking off two cameras to cover a potential hot spot – much more scientific of them than I've come to expect.

Hate to be too skeptical, but given that shows' track record, I wouldn't be surprised if it was a set up. In other words, why did they take such care in this one instance when they are so uniformly slipshod? The footage from inside the closet could have been actually shot at any time and also doesn't preclude the use of wire or any other number of ways it could have been hoaxed. With the show's record of hoaxing, I can't see giving it the benefit of the doubt — but, hey, that's just me Smile
