Rating: Summary: Scary Stuff! Review: Before I launch into praise for these DVD's I have to admit that not all the stories related therein are of the bone-chilling variety, though quite a few are. Many stories are of hauntings by friendly type spirits, where the returning entity means no harm to the visitor, and while these may still cause most people to run for the hills, they pale in comparison to the truly frightening stories, namely the ones regarding entities that DO try to harm or frighten. Hosted by Patrick MacNee (The Avengers), who takes us to various locations famous - or infamous - for it's ghostly activities, we get to visit such places as Hollywood and parts of the Old West (among others) where we realize that the dearly departed are not really departed. MacNee does a good job in setting up the stories, and the ghostly photographs - supposedly real - that usually precede the stories, lend an even more chilling edge to the proceedings. For ghost story fans, I would also recommend the video collection of the old television show 'One Step Beyond'.
Rating: Summary: Let's make up some ghost stories! Review: I do enjoy this set of DVDs a lot and watch at least one of the DVDs every week. The stories on this are very detailed and interesting to listen to. The only thing lacking is any documentary footage of hauntings of the places they spoke about. If you're looking for pure documentary footage, this collection is NOT for you because it is completely made up of true stories and no first-hand footage. For five DVDs, it's a great deal, and if you're dedicated to paranormal studies as I am, you should definitely make that small investment for a wide range of knowledge. Hope that helps!

Rating: Summary: Love This Collection! Review: I truly love the TV show. I always had a hard time to watch it, because of work, and i would miss almost every show, now, i thank amazon.com for bringing back the show in one collection. If your into ghost stories or are into ghosts period then this is one of the best collections out there so far..worth the time and money!
Rating: Summary: Let's make up some ghost stories! Review: There should be a disclaimer: For entertainment purposes only. I use to LOVE this stuff-- when I was 12. I use to watch "Unsolved Mysteries" and those "Haunted Lives" specials and watch them re-create the lies and use spooky music. Please. Some of these "everyday people" are so obviously trying to get on TV and have their day in the sun. Sure, these are definitely entertaining, but take them with a grain of salt.
Rating: Summary: Good Documentaries For The Paranormal Enthusiast. Review: This is a very interesting DVD set specializing in the investigations of the Paranormal Activities mainly in US and England. What I Love the most is the photographs of the Ghosts and Spirits shown at the begining of every case, but it would've been better if they had provided a special section in the "MENU" of each DVD containing all the photographs collections including their details (dates, Origin, Etc.). The other good thing about this DVD is that it provided information on the places with the most reported Paranormal Activities and also the name of the Investigators of few well known cases.
