Just finished watching the first episode!
I'm not sure if I would want to visit his museum, this is where he keeps all the haunted items that he finds from his investigation:

Don't let Mr Bojo's cute appearance fool you!

omg ash ya i remember amy from discovery emailing me like 3 or 4 different times and asking how i got interested, how i found ch, what do i have, did i have any antiquity pieces, etc. i really thought at that point the ch show was a no brainer. still hope they do something with it.

dark always seems to be more interesting in the paranormal field because there is more of a chance that it will be hostile if provoked. if they know there is a possibility of a nasty spirit around it's going to get more interest than a light spirit who would never lash out and they are concerned with ratings so, dark will win out mostly.

most haunted was always the funniest show i ever watched and stewart was always getting the dump on it seemed, lol. i liked ghost hunters up to the point where they started with the "guest investigators" and especially when they bring other syfy stars on - i mean, nah. the gac group is always interesting although not sure i think their style of provoking and screaming is necessary all the time but they've had some pretty decent shows and investigations. i really thought the klinge brothers had an interesting idea and no guest investigators!

honestly i'm not sure about john zaffis' haunted collector since i've only watched the one show so far. professionally he is a world renowned demonologist up in the ranks with the warrens and he has logged in the man hours and paid his dues so we'll see. it may be that some people just do not come across as interesting in front of the camera. tv shows are all about ratings and if viewers watch, it might stick around, if not it'll get cut.

now maybe if they had a show like american pickers "haunted pickers", there that sounds good, lol, that could be catching. could also bring out all the loose screws though too. a couple of collectors could travel around to leads they get from a behind the scenes assistant and pick up pieces with paranormal energy and such. idk, lol. that would be my idea and through the show when things are found it could be discussed and if there was a spirit bound and identified to educate the viewers. like i said, idk.

My husband & I sat to watch an episode tonight. For the second location as they toured through it we picked out pretty quick which items would end up haunted & needing removal to the museum. Funny how so far it is the most valuable or collectible item even from a non-haunted standpoint that winds up being the most haunted.

Having grown up with several years of Kovel Antique Pricing Guides as our coffee table books I could scan a house & pick out the most valuable pieces, too.

I know it's being said that this guy has a good reputation in the field, but so far I'm just wanting to cry Scam!

A little off topic, but I was on Squidoo and came across this topic, some of the stories a very interesting http://www.squidoo.com/hauntedantiques

Totally agreed. The guy does pick out the most expensive stuff. I would have laughed if they'd tried to take that oven/stove thing away. :x I really don't like the guy and can't say I'm a fan. He's just so...off. I think he even ticks his investigators off. >.<;

I liked the show ,the only thing that bothered me was the lady with the music box that her mother was attatched too , it would have been nice to me if they talked to her and had her keep that ,I wonder if she changed her mind if she could get it back :problem: there is no way I would part with something that my mothers energy was with-but that is me.but overall its a good show. :thumbup:

Topics merged.

Ok since everyone is talking about this show, and i am living in stupid europe (we get films only afther a few months and some television shows never ... yeah europe... its old, it smells and u are always the last in the world to know) i am gonna download it.

Two eps you can download them from oneddl.com or rlslog.net if you have account. :thumbup:

Ok i have watche 1 and 1/2 episode...


First of all, no offence, but this is a little typical american. We only see the investigation (3/4 of the show) and the quickly he grabs something extremly cool and worth some money. Both the cane and the music box I would like to have too. They are very nice antiques. Like somebody said before why doesnt he explain to people how to communicate, that they can keep the object, maybe an excorscism on the object? Bc with the music box there was sentimental value involved. Now she lost it. Nice ... NOT! I would never give anything away so precious... if anything happens to my mom, even her room would stay the same so i could sit in it and smell her... I wouldnt even change the sheets! So if he came along and said i am gonna take the most precious thing that your mom owned away ... lets say his bumpie bumps gonna hurt badly. :p

What i do think is cool is the recording of voices. I will definately try that at home. I have felt forever haunted here. Not that i mind but when i am alone it can scare me sometimes. I have to say i slept with my mom till i was 16 years old (then i moved with my bf -) ) and today i am more calmed down and i know they can't hurt me so i finally sleep alone.


It seems though as the second episode got more action in it then the first one ... I am gonna save it to see in an hour with my mom.

But Ash is right the show has really a glow of 'lets scare some americans with the occult' vibe hanging on... they make it way more scary ... but hey its sensation and entertainment thats why its called tele isnt it?
