I LOVE this show. As a person who has personally experienced disturbing hauntings and had paranormal encounters, this show is a favorite to watch. I do enjoy the efforts of T.A.P.S (of Sci Fi Channel) in that they encourage realistic, scientific based investigation, because, though I HAVE had these experiences, I’m a realist. I want to approach incidences in a rational, scientific manner. The team in Paranormal State, however likes to approach paranormal disturbances from a different angle.
They prefer to use a combination of scientific gadgetry as well as spiritual tools to encounter the problem. And though at times, they use their spiritual beliefs to approach the manner, they use realistic steps to confirm any assumption or feeling with fact. Being that they only investigate the most severe, they try to approach the situation with healing in mind. Meaning: investigate, approach, remove said haunting, heal people involved. I don’t like the whole marketing campaign that has evolved surrounding the show. Ryan Buell trying to convince us to switch to Alltel cellphones is annoying. Do we need cups or tshirts to show our support to the show and promote it’s efforts, or to help the producers make money? Either way, I’m still watchin…

You’re funny. I’ve experienced things, too and I wouldn’t want to do what these people do. Leave the invisible, to the invisible, I say. It is facinating, though.
I don’t think I get that show here! I would love to hear about your paranormal experiences sometimes. I read books and watch shows about various hauntings, mediums and such. Cindi
