Review of Episode with Spoilers

Warning: Spoilers
This is the second episode of the season and contains two different investigations. Also notable is the first appearance of Dustin Pari who is brought in because of his strong technical background. The first investigation is in Crafton, MA and involves two children who claim that the ghost of children wake them up. The parents also report that a man hung himself in the upstairs bedroom and can be seen in the room from the outside. Also, while in the room they report that you can hear his footsteps coming up the stairs and hear him rattle the door handle. The owner of the house also reports that there is supposedly a casket buried under the house.

With regards to the investigation of paranormal; pretty much inconclusive on all reports. No apparitions or evps are reported. Once area of debunking, the rattling of the bedroom door handle is actually contributed to the pet cat scratching on the outside wanting in. The only hint at possible paranormal activity is Andy feeling a tightness in his chest coinciding with Jill's dosing rods crossing; however, no one else experience this and while in the basement Brian and Steve heard noises that coincided with emf and temperature fluctuations. Again, nothing conclusive. As with the casket... loose bones that were determined to be cow and pig.

The second case involved the DiRaimo family and their daughter Hayley. They report of possible residual, intellectual, as well as, poltergeist style of haunting. Reports include hearing and seeing both male and female apparitions in various parts of the house, objects moving, as well as, people being pushed. Both daughters have reported their beds vibrating.

From the standpoint of evidence very little is actually caught, limited to just limited temperature and emf fluctuations, most notably while Hayley is in the room. This led Jason and Grant to conclude that it is mostly likely a poltergeist style haunting with the daughter being the actual cause. The only other thing out of the ordinary is that while meeting the family Jason experienced some sort of burn/scratch on his back that they could not explain...

While only the second second episode showed any real potential for paranormal, the lack of any evidence makes for a somewhat uninteresting episode.

Ghost Hunters-Cranston, Rhode Island
Scarecrow-8819 February 2011
Warning: Spoilers
In the second episode of GH, Team TAPS investigate the home of a couple who claim their children are awaken by apparitions, particularly the daughter. But, the investigation itself turns up very little that impresses. They do notice that the son gets up out of bed as if sleepwalking and this could contribute to what spooks the daughter. Investigator Andy Andrews experiences tightness in the chest, but you might could chalk this up to his excitability getting the best of him. The second house finds the source of possible poltergeist activity centered around the daughter of the owner. Jason, during the investigation, suffers a burning scratch which shows damaged blood vessels. That's really about it, though, except for the daughter's cold elbow and the temperature gauge showing a decrease. Not a compelling episode to be honest in regards to paranormal activity. Temperature fluctuations and possible shadows the investigators see away from the camera do little for me personally.
