As I’m watching the not so new show The Haunted Collector I cant
help but wonder, do they hand pick places that they think have haunted items,
or do they plant them? I seemingly doubt that it would be that easy to find
places that happen to be haunted by items. Trust me it doesn't happen as often
as they may make it seem. Let alone they seem to find the item in a night or
two, which really doesn't happen in real investigations. Let alone find the
exact item and having the client let you take it such things don’t really
happen without priority agreements or false placement.
Most times in investigations we tell the clients that it usually
takes a few investigations to really be able to determine what they are
experiencing, and how to get rid of it. I've had some clients where it took
three or four investigations to even capture anything.
Now I can’t say that this is what’s going on, as John is supposed
to be a reputable member of the paranormal community. But I can’t help but ask
those questions and I always bring up the fact that these shows always seem to
find evidence when there are plenty of times you can travel to a known haunted
place and get nothing.
This again just like my review of Deep South Paranormal, these are
the things that give us a bad name as the paranormal community. First these
shows are not any different from each other, they make it seem like you’ll
always get evidence every time you go out. People, this is simply not true.
Most of the time it’s like watching paint dry. You may get nothing at all for
eight hours. You may get one noise, or you may have an evening so packed that
it forever changes your life.
Needless to say just as I have stopped watching The DSP show, this
one is next. There are only so many crappy shows I can fit into my
schedule.
