[Here](http://www.masslive.com/television/index.ssf/2009/11/donna_lacroix_debunks_the_ghos.html) is an article of interest to this discussion. Donna Lacroix, ex-ghost hunter, has implied that (at least) some of the stuff on the show is faked.

I’m not a big fan of the show myself, but I’ll watch it if nothing else is on and I’m too lazy to get off the couch and entertain myself (which is often the case).

I’m not sure how to take that. She hadn’t seen any fakery. But they would hidden it from her if there were. Or maybe there wasn’t any to hide.

Anyway, the whole article is sad. She was badly burned by Pilgrim to the point that her finances and health are in poor shape. Frankly, she sounds like she is not in the best of shape mentally, either.
