The Fire Ghost

"Bad"

By SurvivorFan64, May 15, 2008

The ghost definitely scared me to death. The officer in color looked ok, but when he came in as the ghost, whoa I was so freaked out that i ran to the bathroom and vomitted last night's dinner. This was probably one of the most scariest episodes I have seen. Yeah, I believed the plot was all right, though a little boring at first. Um, right, I should say that the only thing that I could've changed in the film was if the kids were a little more devious for the villainy was awesome but the heroes not so much.moreless

"Perfect"

In this episode, two siblings are left behind in a firehouse after their father and his fellow firemen are called out to a fire. As time goes by, weird events begin to happen in the firehouse that suggests that the place isn't exactly normal. A friendly and helpful ghost aid them as they are attacked by a not-so-friendly fire ghost who wants nothing more than to wreck havoc on the fire station and those inside of it.

This is one of my favorite episodes of Are You Afraid of the Dark. The episode was full of twists and turns every way you looked and had enough drama and suspense to have me sitting on the edge of my seat, my face nearly pressed up against the screen, waiting with bated breath as to what was going to happen next. This was an episode that was definitly worth the time to sit down and watch. A ten out of ten.moreless

Where do fires go when they die? To fire houses for another chance to destroy the men that put them to rest.

"Great"

By chasmatic, Jun 14, 2006

The concept of a "fire ghost" is a strange and unique one. That is what makes this episode stand out. The originality of the story is refreshing. I actually found the specially effects/make up in this one to be quite well done. I also liked the few twists here and there. The ending was another sweet and sentimental one, but overall it was a nice way to wrap it up.
