    It looks like they're going to be showing some episodes on Sunday 10/29.  I have no idea if they're going to throw in a new episode like we got last year.  I doubt it.  Boy, this and MTV Fear are two shows I'd love to see go back into production.

    Its a insulting joke. hide « show »

    This is probably the worst most insulting show in existence. The people chosen for this are such... jokes, it makes you wish to burn out your eyelids. I hope your show gets shut down for pure stupidity. Don't get me wrong, I love paranormal, and this was an insult to all the paranormal loving fans out there. Shut down the show, its not even worth anyone's time. It is a chorus of people screaming and background music making it seem remotely interesting; remove that background music and no one would no longer watch the show. Choose professionals next time. Not screaming jokes.

    One of the worst collections of popular tripe and scare tactics detracting from paranormal research. hide « show »

    From the very beginning, this show was doomed to a life of question and controversy. Families gauged to be the most reactionary were selected to be subjected to hype and scare tactics. Noises were constant in an environment that had obviously been tampered with.

    Fixed cameras and the wiring that would have controlled them would have been the source of most EMF readings, and cameras and scenes tended to cut when families managed to accurately trace the EMF source toward the cameras.

    The silly music and the amplified screams are good for a few laughs, but there was never any serious intent to examine the paranormal. This was about thirty minutes of screams for ratings, at a time when equitable research was just becoming popular. If you liked Friday the 13th, this was probably a great show.

    Bring back the show! My family would love to be one of the families visting a site of the paranormal! hide « show »

    I personally love this show. I wish that you would get this going again. My family and I are interested in haunted houses. We've been to a haunted blind school, but didn't see anything. I think it would be very interesting to go see a place like what you have shown on TV. I seen a couple episodes today, and am infatuated with it. I was talking to my mother about it and wondered how we would go about being one of those families on your show. I guess I didn't know till just a few minutes ago that this show was discontinued. If you should decide to bring it back, my family would love to go visit a site of the paranormal! Thanks again!

    "The Scariest Places on Earth" hide « show »

    Man what a show, this is comedy at it's best. I always laugh when I see this show. They intentionally tell the families a scary tale of the location. Then the family members are hooded and led to different locations, where they begin their quest. I was watching an episode and this black family was on an island. the teen daughter was a hoot.. I noticed during the show that items are dropped from the ceiling & in one clip a family member pans the room and theres somone standing there but moves back quickly. Im a believer in the paranormal, but this show is a black eye for the concept. Ghost Hunters at least is real in the fact they go looking for the alleged ghost.

    This is a reality show, "The Scariest Places on Earth" keep that in mind as well as it's locations are staged. the families are real, the buckets falling from the cieling are for effect...

    You may notice that the narrator is from the tv show "Most Haunted" that show was proven to be a fraud. Dont believe it? Google "Most Haunted Hoax".

    Dont shy away from the paranormal, because of cheesy reality shows. It's real Spirits/ghosts/paranormal activity. The Most Haunted & The Scariest Places on Earth are for entertainment only....

    I believe in ghost and these storied are true. Scariest Places on Earth is the best show ever shown, and it needs to come alive again. hide « show »

    I stayed at Myrtles Plantation and I went there thinking that ghost were in my head. When I left I was scared a ghost was coming home with me. Not only did I hear ghost talking and walking We saw things move and seen figures and it was just crazy scarey. If you dont believe in ghost, then you need to go stay at Myrtles or one of these haunted places, and you will know it is real, and this show needs to come back. I am ready for anything you have to offer.Scariest Places on Earth was the best show ever shown and the people on the show are not faking.
