 Ghosts of England & Belgrave Hall January 25, 2008

Would not recommend this DVD. Very boring with to much talk and very little anything else. We turned it on and after 20 minutes gave up and never watched it again. Ghost Hunters (TAPS) DVD is much better.

When I first started watching this DVD, I was initially rolling my eyes at the fact that there were no one but clairvoyants on the investigating team. Being a die hard fan of TAPS (Ghost Hunters), I couldn't see how anyone investigating the paranormal in this day and age and with the technology available, could base their investigation solely on what someone is "feeling". That is not evidence, that's supposition. They do use temperature gauges and of course, the video recorder is readily available. But by the time I got to the episode entitled "From Beyond", I was beginning to understand the appeal of ISPR a little better. Some of the results of their investigations were very impressive, but still not irrefutable enough to make me swallow it hook, line and sinker. If nothing else, the DVD is highly entertaining and the sincerity of the individual members of the team is without reproof. When all is said and done, the team members absolutely believe in what they are seeing, feeling, and hearing, whether or not the rest of us still remain somewhat skeptical.
I was very glad to see Peter James on the team. I have seen him on many other programs on the paranormal and he was amazingly accurate in his investigations. So at least there was one clairvoyant on the team that I felt familiar with and it lent a bit more credibility to the others on the team and to the show as a whole.
I do think the inclusion of an investigation on Jack the Ripper was unfortunate though. There is more than enough overkill of information about the Jack the Ripper that is just too readily available to make their investigation plausible or even necessary.
I recommend this DVD if only to experience an alternative mode of investigating the paranormal. It is well done, informative, and interesting.
 One of the best October 10, 2005

for those interested in the topic, this is one of the best documentaries on the subject. For those who see black or white with no gray areas and demand definitive proof that ghosts exist, don't waste your money. You're either a believer or a skeptic. I thoroughly enjoyed the documentary and found the investigators to be credible. Well worth the price of the DVD.
Where's The Science? September 20, 2005

As our society continues to progress in the area of inventing new equipment which may provide a breakthrough in the understanding of ghosts and hauntings, groups like the one in this video force this field to take a giant step backwards.
Subjective (as opposed to scientific) investigations are just that: subjective. I would never accept as proof, and sometimes even find laughable, the results of a bunch of "psychics" who let their creative imaginations run wild. If one believes in mediums and all that, fine. But we are now out of the Victorian age and into advanced technology. Some of their antics are simply laughable.
This video needs to be countered with one done by a REAL investigative team. I found it laughable and any of their findings unbelievable. Belgrave Hall especially deserves better then this.
Not very exciting September 12, 2005

This is a documentory style video that has it's ups and downs. Although it has its moments of believability it also has moments of contradiction between the many psycics visiting the areas around england. There is a story about a man who lost his wife that is very heartwaming and enjoyable. An good choice for someone interested in psycics and the scientific side of ghost hunting, but not a good choice if you are just looking for a scare.
