Lilly Posted February 17, 2012 #2 Share Posted February 17, 2012 IMO the show has run its course. I'd guess Grant is simply jumping ship before the inevitable sinking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
voidla Posted February 17, 2012 #3 Share Posted February 17, 2012 Or he wants to concentrate on other aspects in his personal life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ecto76 Posted February 17, 2012 #4 Share Posted February 17, 2012 People speculated the show would not last any longer due to the amount of controversy surrounding the show and its investigators. However; IMO no thanks to the controversy it has gotten more people to watch it. Who's to say he is leaving permanently? He could always say; I changed my mind or did what I had to do and come back. Besides, they'll find another excuse to keep the show going by putting together another find the next ghost hunter. BTW... not a fan of the show at all if you could tell!

Eneri Posted February 17, 2012 #6 Share Posted February 17, 2012 I have enjoyed this show since the beginning. It is a lot of fun to watch and speculate about the sounds and sightings. I like Grant and wish him the best. I will continue to watch Ghost Hunters and still enjoy the show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

harleyblueswoman Posted February 17, 2012 #8 Share Posted February 17, 2012 (edited) Grant will be sorely missed but best wishes on whatever it is he is moving on to!! Love the show and will continue to watch as long as it's on!!!!!!! Edited February 17, 2012 by harleyblueswoman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJNYC Posted February 17, 2012 #9 Share Posted February 17, 2012 I love this show, but really sorry Grant is leaving he was my favorite. I think Steve should replace him, until Grant returns Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HollyDolly Posted February 17, 2012 #10 Share Posted February 17, 2012 As I understand it from the TAPS 18 forum, Grant is still a member of TAPS,The Atlantic Paranormal Society he founded with Jason.It's just he won't be on the show any more. I wouldn't rule out maybe him showing up for something special like a Halloween episode maybe in the future,it's possible. It may be that this was causing family problems,a nd he decided that it wasn't worth all the wear and tear on his family. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ohio traveler Posted February 17, 2012 #11 Share Posted February 17, 2012 This will probably be Ghost Hunters " Jump the Shark " moment. All down-hill from here. ( Watch, they'll probably fill the void with celebrity guest investigators ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michelle Posted February 17, 2012 #12 Share Posted February 17, 2012 It's mildly entertaining so I don't make it a point to watch it. I do like seeing the historic buildings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yellow Jacket Posted February 17, 2012 #13 Share Posted February 17, 2012 Have they EVER really caught a ghost doing anything? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wittyusernamefailed Posted February 17, 2012 #14 Share Posted February 17, 2012 They once showed some hangers flying towards them from offcamera... which were TOTALLY NOT thrown by the sound dude who is never acknowledged as existing...The show pretty much sucks.

Aus Der Box Skeptisch Posted February 17, 2012 #15 Share Posted February 17, 2012 When a dog was brought in to find paranormal activity I realized they were no longer trying to find any evidence they simply wanted to entertain. It was severely disheartening. Grant was the my favorite. But yeah I think 2008 or 2009 was the last time I enjoyed the show. Best wishes to grant. He seems like a real good hearted person. Farewell grant. Jason I never trusted you. Farewell GH. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DHopper Posted February 17, 2012 #16 Share Posted February 17, 2012 Either Grant has personal issues to deal with or is just sik of all the crap he got from mainly the online community. I agree he could just see the end coming as far as the show goes and is jumping ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ROGER Posted February 17, 2012 #17 Share Posted February 17, 2012 As always we have the positive and negative posts about this or any Paranormal show. Such is the nature of man . I like the show because it's pretty much the same no matter what the location. But the show takes me by T.V. to places I will never get to myself. Like Larry the Cable Guys show, or Dirty jobs. I hope the show continues' may be with Jay's Daughter filling in the spot. We will see. And as for the paranormal? The Sy-Fy channel says it all, " Imagine the Possibility's"!

dharma warrior Posted February 18, 2012 #18 Share Posted February 18, 2012 Fail TV. Ghost Hunters, Ghost Adventures, Monster Quest, Finding Bigfoot, Destination Truth and all the rest. They keep looking but not finding. Total waste of time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ROGER Posted February 18, 2012 #19 Share Posted February 18, 2012 Fail TV. Ghost Hunters, Ghost Adventures, Monster Quest, Finding Bigfoot, Destination Truth and all the rest.

Aus Der Box Skeptisch Posted February 18, 2012 #20 Share Posted February 18, 2012 Lol. I don't mind if some of hose shows don't find anything. Heck that's why I liked destination truth. I just lost faith in GH. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ROGER Posted February 18, 2012 #21 Share Posted February 18, 2012 Seriously , if you look in to the whole Paranormal subject most sightings are misunderstood natural occurrences or the mind playing tricks on the person seeing it. Then you get the people Making videos just for their 5 minutes of fame on YouTube or ( U.M.) and just like to argue about it. What I look for is the person or story that starts :" I didn't believe in this UNTILL"! THAT is what makes the show with of course the Debunking.
