Don't know how much love there is here for the show Ghost Hunters but I just got back from a retreat with the guys from the show at Eastern State in Philly. That place is fucking amazing. Even if you don't believe in or give a fuck about the paranormal the building is awesome. If you've ever seen the show you might've seen the episode with the short cloaked figure thing that was running on the catwalk. We got to investigate that cell block as well as death row and solitary. Crazy experience. I love doing this shit. Just thought I'd share.

post any cool pictures you get

yea I'd like to see pics also, That would be cool.

my girlfriend loves that show

I'm way too hooked on this show

I'm going to toot Doug's horn and tell everybody that he writes for TAPS paramagazine because that's awesome.

Also, I was informed that Steve from Ghost Hunters (the dude with the tattoos) was the drummer for Scattered Remnants.

that place is nuts. i've never been there, but have seen several shows about it. i saw one where this guy had to spend the night alone in the place. that must have been crazy. i fucking love urban exploration, abandoned buildings are the coolest places.

Love the show. Been wanting a job with TAPS for a while now to tell you the truth. hahah.

Where is this place anyway? Somebody send me a link on http://local.live.com

Yeah I saw the live Most Haunted Places investigation of that place. I'm dying to go see it in person.

fuck most haunted. we tried to interview them for an article for the magazine and they refused, admitting that the show is designed for entertainment purposes only. they stage everything.

I wish this was my full time job. it's fucking awesome all the places i go for conventions and shit.

Wow, a big scary abandoned/empty/old building? And you say people go there, and get creeped out? Jee Wilikers!

Come back and get me when you see something spooky happen in broad daylight. In a nice neighborhood. With the Ice Cream truck nearby. And clowns.

Maybe after you can show me some cool photos, with weird mysterious spots floating about.

That's not cool. I was once raped by a ghost-clown riding an ice cream truck.

thats one thing that has always bothered me about ghost related stuff. it never happens in a bright happy area. thats why i dont care much for Ghost Hunters. its collective delusion. they go wanting to find something, expecting to find something, and are told all these crazy stories. of course a simple sound like the structure shifting is going to sound like a bloody ghost crawling from the depths of Hell. yes there have been some weird things on that show, but again, its a tv show. we cant base fact off of a tv show. most of the yokels they interview couldnt tell rat shit from rice krispies, so its safe to assume that they are basing their judgment off of a lack of knowledge. i want to walk into an old abandonded building and see some rotting torso crawling after me speaking in a backwards dead language.

Well that would explain SOME of your charming fucking disposition.

haha

I'm going to start my own show called "Ghost Huggers". I'm not exactly sure what the premise will be... but it will definitely involve me getting people to let me into their homes so I can set up A/V equipment and run naked through their kids' rooms.

notorious_D.U.G. said:

You're the kettle? So you admit you base your judgement off of a lack of knowledge. Good to know!

Another scam, busted.

ArrowHead is ghost hatin', yo.

I hate that show because it employs Brian Harnois. I used to work with him and he is the biggest idiot I have ever met.

menstrual_sweatpants_disco said:

I don't hate ghosts. I just hate the people that go looking for them in spooky basements and abandoned buildings. And take blurry photos. And buy nightvision cameras. And tape record empty rooms.

It's really quite sad, unscientific, and spiritually unrewarding.

pam said:

true statements. but harnois was released from the show and taps itself for being a tool.

ArrowHead is watching you said:

you're useless. stop talking.

I don't think I know the show enough to remember who Brian is. I'll have to look it up on imdb or some shit.

Wait now I know. I'd have to agree. That guy is a tool.

notorious_D.U.G. said:


Wait, pointing out your moronic attempt at using a tired cliche made me useless? Or was it my implication that ghostbusting groups were foolish idiots? You need to be more specific.

Funny, though. Being called useless by a guy who wanders old buildings scaring himself didn't hurt as deep as I always thought it would.

ghostbusters are cool though
did anyone notice after the marsmallow man exploded, all the ghostbusters were covered with the goop except billl murray, who is untouched? why was that? gets me every time

im not fan of that ghost hunters show. i dont understand why they get a fuckin tv show, and i could show them a thing or 2, hell i could bring em places that would make them shit thier pants.

notorious_D.U.G. said:

fail.

BOO!

notorious_D.U.G. said:

REALLY? I heard that (don't watch the show), but he was still on the website and stuff.

Oh that makes me happy.

menstrual_sweatpants_disco said:

You have no idea. We used to have to listen to him tell us DAILY about his mystery model girlfriend, and his favorite story:

"ddddooooooodddd kid I had a ghost throw me across the room, ddduuuud, seriously, you don't believe me dooood, I'll bring in the tape!"

Needless to say he always forgot the tape.

I spent no less than 3 hours a day fixing his fucking mistakes. He also pretended to faint one day to get out of work. I hope he gets killed.

Everyone called him "Mulder" too, it was great.

pam said:

haha where did you guys work together?

Yeti said:

oh snap. you sure made me e-mad. grrr. jerkface.

menstrual_sweatpants_disco said:

General Dynamics in Taunton. When I was in the shipping dept my job consisted of getting the "hot" items out and opening and repackaging his items properly. Kid would put a fucking 3,000 dollar circuit board in a huge box with no static bag or proper fucking padding. So, I eventually got him fired, I believe he mentioned it in the pilot episode, or so I was told. My coworkers took me to lunch to celebrate.

HUNTERHUNTER said:

bill murray is marshmallow retardant. it's the only possible explanation.

I saw this apparition there.

menstrual_sweatpants_disco said:

One of the guys (Forget if it was him) was also in Perpetual Doom...which also had Chickenhawk...err, PhilLabonte and Matt Bachand before they sucked. (And Phil played f'n guitar.)

pam said:

haha that is awesome.

i_am_lazy said:

Yeah I believe that was Steve as well.

i want to see a free-floating, full torso vapors apparition that blows books off shelves from 20 feet away and scares the socks off some poor librarian.
