![]() This show combined elements of reality and fiction and made it impossible to tell if it was fake or not, and as for people watching on that October 31st night in 1992, everyone thought this drama/horror fiction story was completely and utterly 100% true, and this was happening right before their very eyes. I could feel practically every emotion that was coming out of the characters. As for a controversial TV show in the early 90s, I would have to say I still found this incredibly unsettling. The atmosphere is absolutely incredible, the choice of actors is phenomenal, and the whole premise of this as a live coverage of a haunted house is a thing that was way far ahead of its time. I swear, if I would've saw this in 1992 I would have completely believed it. Allow yourself to live in the setting, imagine flicking over to your local news channel and seeing this broadcast and feel that part of your brain that recoils at the thought that something like this could be real!įantastic, so glad I got to finally watch it! Watch it but don't expect yourself to be wow'd or slammed into the back of your seat. Well I say I rather enjoyed this a heck of a lot more than the Conjuring 2 let me tell you! It's "nothing-special" story actually makes it work better, as it's a story everyone has heard before and makes it that much more plausible and believable. Very similar to the Enfield haunting that the Conjuring 2 is based on. ![]() Nothing in it is particularly novel from a fiction standpoint, it's kind of a standard haunting story. Very effective! Top notch found footage/mockumentary style video, a must see if you haven't. A modern War of the Worlds type of report that sparked terror and imagination in people when it first aired! I was so upset I wouldn't be able to see it when I found it was scrubbed from every streaming site I could try. I've been looking everywhere for a place to watch this and finally found it on Reddit of all places! Amazing to find it here on the archive, absolutely a piece of horror history that must be preserved.
