Paranormal State

I’m going to preface this next post by saying I LOVE scary movies. And what’s the next best thing to scary movies? SCARY TV SHOWS! I discovered “Paranormal State” on A&E last year and was instantly hooked. Okay, right off the bat I must confess, this group of Penn State college students who investigate paranormal cases are not the prettiest bunch of people to look at. The founder of the bunch, Ryan Buell, has grown on me in sort of a “nerdy kid I‘d like to corrupt” way, but the others are your classic bookworm types. They are all super smart and definitely know their way around an exorcism.

The houses they have investigated would give Freddy Kruger a mild coronary. Pictures are flying off the walls, weird voices are saying “Get Out!” and it’s made all the more tense because they start their work at 3 a.m or “the dead hour” as they call it. I would give anything to tag along on one of their adventures just to see if I could take it. I’m sure I would be digging my fingernails into the arm of whoever was sitting closest to me while simultaneously relieving myself on the carpet.

And if you are going to watch this show, you MUST do it with all the lights off! It really enhances the whole “yep, I just shit my pants” experience. Try it sometime…IF YOU DARE…[insert Vincent Price evil laugh here]
