Trivia:

Horror Director Richard Valentine, and actress Jessica Von, both appeared as guests on the Ghost Hunters season 3 premiere "Lost Souls". After filming Richards's latest feature "THE TAKEN" at the Northern State Hospital, they were contacted by Ghost Hunters producers for an interview about any GHOSTLY experiences they had while filming there. Northern State Hospital also served as the location for Richard's previous film "Bloody Mary", released in 2006.

Hilarious stuff, it's just not supposed to be.

I love Paranormal, Supernatural, Haunted, and/or whatever you want to call it. Do I believe in any of it for real. No. These guys are really entertaining but for all of the wrong reasons. I would love to go on one of these haunted missions because I could debunk everything right then and there. So could just about every non-believer in this stuff. Will I still be entertained by other entertainment containing these elements? Absolutely I will! Will ever convert to any of this ridiculous stuff, not in a million years. I wish I could believe and be spooked by chairs moving or water be turned on or whatever they say happens. Notice that none of these people are exactly educated, and if they were ALL of it could be explained. Still can be good stuff if you believe in it, but if not you'll be laughing at these people bumping around in the dark, scaring each other over nothing. There is reason why there is absolutely zero credible evidence of anything spooky going on, it's because there isn't.
