I'm still wondering how a fully nude exotic dancer would describe herself as >"shy" and it not immediately be questioned.
I'm less upset about them claiming there's a ghost from an incident that
didn't happen. On one of the episodes where I live, they were investigating an old slaughterhouse (that's now a haunted attraction). Of course any haunt with a permanent location wants to be able to claim their site is really haunted, because ghost tours in the off season help keep the lights on, and it's good press. But both the owner (and mostly Zak) were aggressively milking the fact that one of their female actors had been killed in a car accident (on the opposite side of town, in the spring) to claim her spirit was now haunting
this run down old sausage factory. I was really pretty angry they were basically turning this poor girl's unrelated death into a marketing ploy.
Also, are we supposed to believe that the ‘ psychic/medium ‘ has had no prior >knowledge of the location or its supposed ghosts? “ yeah, sure we will take >your word for it. It’s not like you’ve ever lied before…….”
"We're getting a psychic to come and do a cold reading."... He may as well
have added: "She'll be using barnum statements to make you think she's legit".
