Deadly Possessions

I'm a skeptic but I'm always searching for the unexplained and paranormal, so I enjoy the genre. But this is an absolute embarrassment. Zac sitting on a throne with a painting of himself in his interview room, interupting his "guests" and talking over them is unbearable. There's no research and barely any factual history of the objects. Everyone on the show is over acting so hardcore it makes WWE wrestlers cringe. My biggest problem however is the fact this young fit guy has an incredibly slow and frail old man as his "BUTLER" and orders him around like a slave. It's truly despicable and makes me super uncomfortable.....

Skip this one people, its a huge fail all around.

I was not convinced by the story about Charles Manson's t.v. First of all anyone who grew up during the 60s know that digital televisions did not evolve until the 80s. the television featured was clearly a product design of the 80s. It was more clear after Zak turned it on and you could see the digital display. Also it could not have belonged to an inmate serving life with no access to a TV in his cell nor any plug outlets. This episode and all those featured in it are fake! It is difficult to discern when these claims are made and the obvious hoax is clearly visible but the details are never challenged. I am not saying that Zak and his crew are not sincere in their efforts to prove that these claims exist but when exploiting a story and examining the facts are paramount to bringing legitimate claims to the audience. But when these people tell their stories and present testimony sometimes it becomes clear when the wool is being pulled and the gullible are captivated.

I get there is a craze with the Anabelle franchise as well as ghost hunting shows, so it's not a surprise someone would have thought to create a show about discussing possessed or haunted items. This haunted object premise COULD be cool if proof of the object's history was shown and discussed. Not hard, they did it all the time on Ghost Adventures.

Next, the butler named Theodore who brings Zak his mail. The segment really had nothing to do with the haunted object but rather a way for Zak to introduce the fact he now has a butler. The set...and this is definitely a set has 4 rooms? Why does he need a butler? The feel of the show is just OVERLY dramatic and the ego-mania is stifling.

If Zak and his crew wanted to explore haunted and cursed antiquities that have apparently killed people, I don't think it's wise to have guests of the show drag the object out into public where it can be in contact with unsuspecting people. It's kind of a reckless thing to do if one TRULY believes these objects are possessed. This is the neglected detail that sinks the show's credibility for me. I'm no expert but I would imagine that an experienced ghost hunter would want to retrieve and transport the object themselves knowing how dangerous it can be to unsuspecting people. If the host got off his throne and retrieved these demonic items from their place of origin it would inspire actual ghostly events to occur as well as lend itself to better storytelling.

Ghost Adventures was such a hit because of its casts honest chemistry and the playful rhythm that made it authentic and relatable even if you didn't believe in ghosts. They joked, they screamed and most importantly they had fun and that's why it was so fun to watch.

In conclusion, no I'm would not watch another hour of Zak desperately trying to get people to take him as seriously as he does himself which is the only creepy element of the show.

I'm a great fan of Zak & Aaron for there contributions and investigations in to the paranormal, until now they lived up to there standards. After little research myself found one to many question marks that they should have caught researched before interviewing some of these people, now they are being mislead and duked. All though its chilling and entertaining, a great watch. But can lead to false myths and false information to fester in the field. As anything look at it with very objectively and open minded, do not take it as fact. I'm a layman in the field, spired to work with it myself someday, to find my own answers just as these guys started. I support there efforts, but just be careful going down this rabbit hole guys.

Dumb show. Incomplete stories. Any time spent watching this is an absolute waste of time. It's not even entertaining, let alone convincing. Just dumb.
