Paranormal State is A&E's answer to the SciFi Channel's Ghost Hunters. But that's where all similarities end.The blurb on their website states:
PARANORMAL STATE is a half-hour series chronicling the extraordinary life of Ryan Buell and other members of the Penn State University Club The Paranormal Research Society (PRS) as they seek to find the truth behind terrifying real life mysteries, hauntings and ghosts.
As the blurb says, the people doing the research are young adults, most of them university students. And they don't investigate as much to "debunk" a sighting, but rather to prove a haunting.
Like GH, they try to capture manifestations on camera. They use similar equipment, and often call in "specialists" like psychics to help them. But I've also noticed a slant geared toward exorcism and demonic possession, not to mention the occult. Plus they sometimes hold seances.
Is it good? In my opinion, it has its moments, and it has its dull stretches, too.
