Need to make the cameramen investigators…nerves of steel. The one filming Britt freak out doesn't flinch a bit. Also doesn't say anything. I know they are there to film it and probably have a non-speaking contract, but come on, don't you think you'd say something even as simple as "Dude, the door!" when it starts to close?
On the first one it's almost as if Britt is turning so as to miss it. He's looking perpendicular to the open door and then as it starts to close, he rotates to the left so that the closing edge is directly at his back the whole way, and then puts his hand on the arm of the chair. Why would he do that? It's as if he needed to be doing something with his hands and knew that he couldn't have them over leaning against the door frame anymore.
He's standing there leaning against the frame and only after he takes his hands off the frame that the door starts to move…as if he knew he had to move his position for the SDT to work.
Classic line after Britt jumps 8 feet AND asks KJ if he saw the door shut (to which KJ says no) "Did that door just shut on you?"
Why is Britt rocking back and forth from foot to foot so dramatically right before he goes to stand by the doorway…at which point it closes the second time? Shaking the floor a little?
There is a pretty good creak as the door is starting (I think already moving) to swing the second time. We didn't hear this the first time so I have to imagine it's the floor, so pretty creaky floor boards meaning transference.
Britt after the second time: "I can't believe that fricken door staw…closed like that"
Wonder what he was originally going to say?

SFT: Unlike Wright-Patterson AFB, no crazy EMF activity. More like GHA at the Stanley when there was no readout change. Wish they'd make up their minds how they are going to do it.

Reveal: Someone explain this editing to me. Jason is starting out his recap of the events that night.
Jason: "At one point, Grant and I were in…"
Arthur: "Room 27"
Jason: "…where a lot of people hear, you know, footsteps, somebody etc etc"
What the heck is the voice over of "Room 27" by the client?
Camera is on Grant so you can't see either Jason or Arthur. You do not hear Jason at all saying a room number.

I think that's still Jason. His voice changes a little, perhaps to emphasize "room 27" but I think it's still him.

I'm pretty sure it's not Jason…it doesn't have his graveliness and is slightly higher in pitch and there is a very slight "jump" in the audio indicating a layover. The voice saying Room 27 is smoother than Jason's.

Nosfer asked: "What the heck is the voice over of "Room 27" by the client ?"
Maybe it's a ghost pretending to be a demon pretending to be Rich Little pretending to be a demon pretending to be a ghost. I mean we've already had a scenario similar to that so…why not? (And once again…I can't remember which episode that was…must be a demon pretending to be a ghost pretending to be a demon that is preventing me from remembering it…)

I couldn't help but to remember Joe Chin's "ghost bite." This is how Logisti saw things in his review of Dragsholm Castle:
"Joe also was a focal point for activity during the investigation itself. Towards the beginning of the night he was in the basement with Brandy when he reported hearing what he thought was a voice saying "Go" or something similar. Shortly afterwards he noticed a sensation on his forearm and was surprised to see what seemed to be a bite-mark. The size and shape of the red, irritated area certainly seemed consistent with a human bite-mark to my eye, but we didn't get much of a closeup so we can't really look for indentations from individual teeth to really be sure. Also, we have to consider that Joe might have been blasted out of his mind having insane-crazy-kinky relations with a fellow cast member or some local girl (or guy) because that's just how he rolls. Of course, that's just plain speculation on my part but the entire situation seemed a bit odd.
Robb had the real investigative zinger though, when he asked: "Did anything bite you?" Oh ya, now come to think something did jump out of a corner and bite me right after we went downstairs — thanks for asking or I never would have put 2 + 2 together. By the way, is that a full moon outside? My back itches and I have a strange desire to howl. Seriously Robb, "Did anything bite you?" ?!?! Since Joe's the one who is telling you he thinks the injury looks like teeth marks, don't you think he probably would have front-loaded the answer to that if the answer was "yes" ?"
Yes…history does show that TAPS certainly has a knack for asking the obvious… 
Lastly, as for your blow by blow of the Case Of The Scary Swinging Door…just a bunch of weirdness going on there. And the beautiful part? Not only are J&G condoning this sort of action by leaving it in the show (after all, they are producers), they are actually pushing it as evidence of the paranormal as seen in the review. It boggles the mind really. And when Learjet said that even the "true believers" at the TAPS site were questioning it…it almost makes one question the limits…if there even are limits on the blatant arrogance of Jason and Grant. "Put it out there…people will buy it…" Wow…

I shall defer to your judgement as I don't think my xvids have as good audio quality.
I wonder why they would splice something like that in? Unless Jason said "room 24" instead of "room 27" as 24 had the SDT.

That's really about the only thing I could come up with last night, too…Jason goofed the room during the reveal and no one noticed it until they were doing final editing and someone finally realized it. It could be something as innocent as the editors just lifting Arthur's voice from the tour where he said the room number and dropping it in there. But why not use Jason? Could it be that he had already zoomed off to some other event and couldn't be bothered? I don't think there's anything sinister but it's an interesting solution if that's what actually happened lol

More butchered editing in the reveal. The part where they show Arthur the door noise that Kris and Amy caught. Go to the part where they loop it and zoom in on the screen. Once it pulls back to show J&G&Arthur, observe the conversation going on. You HEAR Jason talking, but you SEE Arthur's mouth going pretty good. Then it cuts to a closeup of Arthur speaking (which you actually hear) Something was dubbed over in the wider cut that showed Jason and Arthur talking, also. Probably Arthur saying "You hear WHAT?" lol

Just tell me when Sam and Dean are back. I see more real investigating on Supernatural than I do on GH.
I'm waiting for J&G to break out the shotgun with shells loaded with rock salt. Now that would liven the show up again 
**EDIT
An it would give a new twist to the tired old, "Didja' see that!" It would be **BOOM** "Didja' see that?!…. oh, it was one of the production crew. Sorry about that!"

Here is what Britt had to say on Facebook about the closing door:

They were being quite what? (KJ and i were in the room a while in the dark and being quite.) lol
A millisecond, eh? That would be one-thousandth of a second. So apparently a concept of time is something else he lacks! For the record, the first closing takes about 5 seconds (or 5000 milliseconds). The second door swings for two seconds before it strikes Britt about halfway through the arc of what would be a full closure.
