Well, you know, I've seen the the show isn't really about Amityville at all or that the Amityville haunting has any connection to the location in the show. Noone in the show claims that, simply that here be demons. Like there was alleged in one of the biggest hoaxes in modern american history, Amityville. Amityville is simply a selling point, advertising (false of course). Amityville has zilch with the show to do, but somehow they manage tu squeeze a mention of it in the epsiode and in the epsiode title.

It's about ghost/demon hunting (a la GH) and frankly is so ridiculous in content that it is excruciating to watch. Hot spots are demon wortexes some laser-gizmo is purported to detect and catch ghosts on film. Add to that a medium and the circus is complete. It's mindbogglingly ridiculous and make GH look like Carl Sagan in comparison.

However, Ben Radford appears and makes good debunk of an incident , even though he is no exactly given much room or time. Still, any skepticism is better than none. 

Mysteryquest is really a ridiculous show, showcasing quite a few nutters to be frank. Their episode on the Zodiac is about the weakest and stupidiest show I've ever watched. Their "proof" against who they claim as the Zodiac is laughable, some of it isn't even circumstantial, it's simply rumours and biased conjecture. Still it is a bit fun to because of the insanity in some of the claims and how your skeptic mind really gets to work. You simply can't watch and not be skeptical, you are urged by the stupidity to do so. And to research how, when and where  all this craziness comes form. It truly is a circus.
