Anyone remember this show? It was on channel ABC around Halloween 2-3 years ago. There was also a sequal the following year called “World’s Most Scariest Ghosts: Caught on Tape.”

I remember watching it and (foolishly) not taping it. Well, now I’m on a ghost kick, and I’m having the hardest time trying to find tapes of both (or either).

I don’t want to take the chance of waiting until Halloween again – what if they don’t air them?

Anyone know where I can get them?

Actually, you should be able to make your own tape.  
Just wave a video camera around in a semi-lit area, and whatever you see that you can’t explain is a ghost 😃

Ha ha, Rawduke… 🙂 Actually, it was pretty cool. I remember one clip they had of some guy who was building/renovating his house and stuff kept happening, so he set up his video camera one night while everyone was gone. You see plasterboard being ripped off the walls, chairs being thrown across the room, etc. Now, rigging a chair to fly across the room is possible – but sheets of plasterboard being ripped off and thrown? That’s creepy. I’m bored with the orbs and ectoplasm myself – gimme the good stuff!

PS: I _hope_ this doesn’t end up a wild discussion on the truth vs. fiction of the existence of ghosts. I just want the damn tapes – whether anyone believes it’s true or not!!

I’d expect a show titled “World’s Most Scariest Ghosts” to be on Fox . . .
