The Discovery Channel has an hour-long show called "A Haunting" that I've recently discovered. This show scares the living daylights out of me.
"A Haunting" is based on true stories of homes that are haunted. No, not the grand homes that are now museums, not bed & breakfasts in New Orleans, not castles... nothing you would have already heard about as being a famous haunted house. The tales in "A Haunting" are just your average, everyday run of the mill private homes that families, after moving in, found to be inhabited by spirits... and usually not the good kind.
The show is shot in reenactment style with a narrator and interviews with family members, mediums, and anyone else who encountered the chaos of the home. But the way it's shot... freakin scary crap, man. Special effects, creepy music, lighting, eerie sounds... heebie jeebies, I tell you. Heap freakin jeebies.
The reenactment are awesome, though.
In conjunction with Halloween I suppose, The Discovery Channel aired back-to-back episodes last night. And I, the girl who is afraid of the dark, could not bring myself to turn the channel. Nope. I sat with eyes glued to the television, remote in hand with thumb position over the "up" button. I should have turned the channel. Really, I should have. It wouldn't have taken much effort. My thumb was shaking, itching to hit the button on the remote... but I just couldn't do it.
I have a sick, sick addiction to "A Haunting."
A nonhuman demonic spirit possessed a medium, a teenager's bed shook and moved, an elderly couple's breakfast was interrupted when a ghost opened their pantry door and manifested before their eyes, a loving husband and father was turned into an evil, raccoon-killing man by the spirits in his home... and the list goes on.
As a result of the haunted marathon (stupid Discovery Channel), I slept with four lights and the television turned on until 6:00am the next morning. I woke about 5 times during the night, who of which I swear there were abnormal shadows on the wall. Dang, stupid Discovery Channel.
Thank God for Beauregard!
I hate that show.
I wonder if it will be on tonight.
