Still Waters Posted February 6, 2013 #1 Share Posted February 6, 2013 The TAPS team found themselves in Bartonville, Illinois at the Peoria Asylum for their latest investigation on "Ghost Hunters." The new owners were renovating the property and felt that the construction might be stirring up some paranormal activity. After investigating the site, the TAPS team agreed. They heard muffled screams in the attic, voices coming from different rooms and even possible video footage of a ghost in the asylum's cemetery. http://www.huffingto..._n_2588284.html 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rafterman Posted February 6, 2013 #3 Share Posted February 6, 2013 Why does that piece read more like a press release from SyFy than something written by an actual journalist? Notice there's no name associated with it. I love the show and saw that episode. Definitely interesting, but given the dubious history of some of the evidence on GH, I don't put much faith in it. Not to mention, if this were legit, I think it would have made a much bigger splash - after all, it was taped months ago. The same can be said for all of these hunting/finding shows. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pallidin Posted February 6, 2013 #4 Share Posted February 6, 2013 Interesting. Seems too far away for a definitive opinion, though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lone wolf2 Posted February 6, 2013 #5 Share Posted February 6, 2013 Its interesting. I would like a copy of the original video so i could enlarge that section and go over it frame by frame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jacques Terreur Posted February 6, 2013 #6 Share Posted February 6, 2013 coool, after so many shows they managed to actually present something! I stopped watching it because the term "did you hear that" doesn't satisfy on the long run, but this looks neat! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I stopped watching it because the term "did you hear that" doesn't satisfy on the long run, but this looks neat! That's one of the aspects that gives me pause. They typically have one good find like this a season. It just seems a bit contrived to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jacques Terreur Posted February 6, 2013 #8 Share Posted February 6, 2013 i only followed the first two or three seasons and then i quit watching. I didn't see anything like that before in this show. You think they made that up to keep it interesting? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeoriaBJJ Posted August 16, 2013 #9 Share Posted August 16, 2013 I live about 10 minutes from this place. TONS of stories coming from that whole campus. Also a local junior football league organizes a haunted house in one of the buildings and they do movie nights there too. Cool place! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks as though it's a hairy humanoid which is slowly moving around to see what's going. No image of a "ghost" though. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CyberKen Posted September 5, 2013 #18 Share Posted September 5, 2013 that is to be debated their evidence has been shown as user error, hardware error, bunch of sound bytes and questionable witness accounts I have seen many episodes where a ghost/spirit turns a flashlight off/on when asked a question. The laser grid also works. Ghosts have mass. TAPS caught a ghost on video in a library in New York. The more they investigate, the better they get. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would just arrange them differently if i was a member of the team. Just create a laser grid checkerboard. Then put a camera on the checkerboard. A simple flashlight confirms communication. They should add a medium like Allison Dubois. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they are experts, why don't they have a POV Camera? How many times have they claimed to see something and no camera was facing it? By their own footage it shows ghosts like corners so why aren't they wearing POV cams like go pros??? I remember grant almost doing it every second episode where he said he saw something. Reason why they don't wear POV is because they can't make claims where there is video shown other wise. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skydivingstars Posted September 7, 2013 #24 Share Posted September 7, 2013 Ever since the Queen Mary hoax came out, I don't trust much about this show. Most of the things they "find" seem a bit too convenient and they rarely seem taken aback by anything that happens. Not sure about the authenticity of this, I've given them the benefit of the doubt before and setups ended up coming out in the end somehow. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
