View Full Version : Those goofy "haunted places" TV shows.

The shows are always awful, but when it's about a place you're familiar with, it's pretty hilarious,
As I discovered a while back when I saw a segment about Fairfax County, VA's Bunny Man Bridge.
The one I was looking for two years ago is finally readily available on the Youtubes, which is awesome.

This is the cave I worked at in 2008, and the lady talking the whole time was my boss (by 2008 she had gotten a fake tooth to fill the hole!). It's great because she's obviously enjoying bullshitting for the show.
Probably less entertaining to you guys because you can't point out everything that's stupid about it, but maaaaaan I can.
(PS there are no lights beneath the "17 story mark" so the claim that they're deeper than that is bullshit)

You should do commentary on the video Aaarg.

I watched this alone in a house and at one point said aloud, "that's the Christmas Tree Grotto, son!"
Also I laughed heartily at Jack (the old dude reenacting seeing a ghost) and his wonderful acting.
One time he told me and another worker, as we were in the maintenance shed doing some menial bullshit, "y'all look like a couple of chinks in a sweatshop!"

I have a friend an acquaintance who does one of those for our local public-access station.
Actually, he does one a year, on Halloween, but I think he might have skipped last year.
The year before, though, there was a big viewing party of the new episode and it was a blast. I love the reenactments by locals.

I was getting at a business that tears down buildings but I'm sure the Employment Developement Department could help people out too. :(

that air force museum is supposed to be haunted, but I didn't get any sort of haunted vibe off it. I think it might be a conscience thing...that, and I'm sure the mannequins in the cockpits must be creepy as hell in the dark.
Only place I ever felt "haunted" was in Octagon House, in Watertown WI, when I was a kid on a field trip. The house seemed downright sinister to me, like the Amityville Horror house relocated to Wisconsin or something. I didn't want to go in, and when I did I had this nauseating feeling of dread the whole time I was there. I was relieved to get out. Dunno.

The fuoride factory near my house has ghosts of all the dental fatalities that took place there.

They brought the ghost hunters to this place for an episode and they talk about how great it is to even be allowed in the place. I was like
"I walked around here with my dong out."
NSFW but its art

Tasteful but Spencer Tunick had a nude group art experience here a few years ago I partook in.

Terra sucks and I still hate her to this day and I fume and throw things around the room and rant to myself constantly like a lunatic every time I think about her.

Circa 2003, I had a lot of hate in my heart for many of my fellow I-mockery forum members that continued on. It took a long time, a couple decades went by and still I would find myself thinking about all those transgressions I found other forum members dishing at me. It was only recently around a few months ago I just finally let it all go. I realized that my existence is merely transitory, and holding a 20+ year grudge over words said to me by people I will never meet in my personal life isn't worth it. My advice to you is to also let it go, and let those old wounds heal.

I was on the forum for the briefest of moments because Terra and her antics just made everything annoying. I had completely forgotten about her but decided to log on for the first time in 17 years to remember what I posted about.
Immediately saw her inane replies in my threads or comments and got that classic early 00's seeeethe.
So I commented for the laughs to someone who will never see it

I understand, you want to be the man of the hour, the man of the moment, the man of the house even. But look around you, there's really no one left. It's like you were the front-man for a funky, groovin' 70's prog rock band that was huge in Berlin all that time ago. Except now your fellow band mates who are akin to the ones who posted alongside of you have either moved on to New Wave, drank themselves to death or were diagnosed with Alzheimer's.
It's time to start a new adventure Esuohlim, and pave a new path, start a new journey. The Gaia Online Message Boards are calling your name. Here's to a plentiful and successful 30+ year posting career for you on there.

This is one of those times I legitimately can't tell if they're joking or dead serious
