Summary: America's most haunted town is better left on the shelf.
Review: After watching many ghost videos over the years I've seen many excellent and not not excellent videos, and this video falls in this category. This is more of a badly thrown together documentary, then a ghost hunt! The video is very ameteur and actually reminded me at times of the blair witch movie!!!The acting, yes acting is obvious and I find the lead character a close second to to being possessed herself, but not by the spirit world. If you love a good ghost hunt and scare this is not the movie for you and is a waste of money and better left on the shelf.

Summary: It left me speechless!
Review: As an Energy healer, I work intensively with energy and the Spirit world. My belief is strong and my commitment unwaivering. I have been a teacher and Spiritual councelor for 20 years now, using various sources of books and videos as guides for my students and clients.

After viewing this video, I was speechless. It does nothing but make a mockery of the Spirit realm. It is difficult enough to provide or find good, quality content without the constant downgrading of skeptics and nonbelievers, but if rediculous junk like this continues to hit the market, it will only provide more fuel for their fire. I can see why there are so many skeptics out there after watching this film. I am very frustrated by the thought of any portion of the money I spent on this video contributing to more nonsense of this type.

Summary: Goosebumps of the best kind!
Review: Fascinating documentary! Enter the town of New Hope, where the spirits of the past are companions of today. Intriguing video and photographic footage of bizarre and scientifically unexplainable phenomena. The director has managed to capture a touching aspect of this quiet little town, where the haunts are anything but threatening. From funny to loving and mysterious, dare to discover the remnants of our American Heritage in this spiritual nexus that is New Hope.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: New Hope, PA
Review: First of all, I adore ghost documentaries. The most realistic the better.

Secondly, orbs are fascinating to look at -- the first one, two dozen times you see them. After that, they're boring.

When I see ghost documentaries, I need to see more than orbs. I need to see things moving by themselves, I need to hear sounds that are not being made by humans, I need to see figures through infrared cameras that aren't there when you take the camera away. Orbs and protoplasms just don't cut it anymore.

But orbs are just what you get in this documentary. That and a medium who "feels" the presence of spirits while she walks around a house. That's it.

This may be impressive for a novice, but it's quite a yawnful for someone who's already has seen other ghost documentaries (or has had their own ghostly experiences).

Incidentally, I'm afraid I can't say that this town could, by *any* stretch of the imagination, be called the "Most Haunted Town". By what standards? By a 10-mile radius? In the county? What? The name fools you already.

So it's up to you. If you're a ghost "virgin", you may be impressed. If you've been around the block already, move on. You may be more impressed with "Scariest Places on Earth". At least you can *pretend* that there's something going on there.

Summary: UNIQUE AND ENTERTAINING
Review: I bought this video and recently added America's Most Haunted Inns-Bucks County. Both are entertaining even if you are, like me, a non-believer in human earth bound spirits. I don't play around with the occult and I suspect whatever essence was caught on tape may not be so benign... Nevertheless, the format, interviews, stories, music - all great. I also enjoy these videos from a historical perspective, i.e. seeing the old structures and hearing about the owners thru the years.

Summary: Very Bad
Review: I had to laugh when I saw this video. I work with a group that investigates haunted places, and I was so grateful that none of us act in this way.
None of the pictures captured anything that could be explained as paranormal. The psychic was rude, and nothing could make me ever want to be involved with this group.
There are scores of better videos and shows on television.
Don't waste your money.

Summary: Don't waste your money
Review: I have watched a lot of true ghost story shows on Discovery, Travel Channel, etc. and expected something similar with this video. This was HORRIBLE! This had to be the dumbest "real" ghost story video I have ever seen. The "real" images were nothing more than light glares. To make the images move on video, the guy just wiggled the camera. They had a "sensitive" that went to 3-4 of the locations and immediately found the ghosts everytime at which point she professed her love for them and pretended to communicate with them.

By the end of it, my wife and I thought we were watching a Saturday Night Live skit because it was so ridiculous.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The World Has To See This!!
Review: I saw the video and I have to say that this video is the best I have EVER seen regarding spirits. The world needs to see this. This needs to get out and get "mainstream" so everyone who ever doubted or was skeptical about spirits or the "other side" can see for themselves. I am so pumped up after seeing it! Cathe and Rick I thank you both and the producer for doing this video! Wonderful is an understatement!
