I'm watching it now.... Looks stupid. To me it just looks all too scripted. Everyone is behaving like actors.

I can't even find any info on that Elton/Eltham Hall or whatever it is called.

Yes, I think it is largely scripted. I mean, how often do you see someone go 'limp' just because someone says go into a trancelike state...

Though I should add I did pick Jane (without following the instructions), but then again, the set of photos has probably been carefully chosen/researched, so that the majority of people pick that one...

I was just thinking that it may also have been rigged in the sense that go left (or right) from the colour one to the next b/w one, then diagonal etc. may always lead to Jane.

That, plus the fact that colour photos stand out more, and some of the colour photos featuring somewhat dull people may quickly lead to 90% of the people picking Jane. Obviously it is perfectly possible to research this all beforehand. And, with a few scripted actors to boot, you've got yourself a seance...

I was completely unsuprised by the ending. As soon as he left the room actually, I thought he would bring her out.

Does anyone remember GhostWatch? It was on about 10 years ago, and that did the scare the bejesus at out me. Although I have since watched it and it did look kind of silly, but at the time, I was young, and I missed the disclaimer at the middle and that screwed me up for a little while :Yikes:

BB31 was frightened to death, when I turned the lights off she freaked out :rofl: I got her good style though when I started moving the glass, her face was a picture. Suppose I'm a rotten friend really :D :D :D

Actually sounds like your pretty close... :cough - excuse me:

Anyhoo, watched half of this got bored / scared and ran out the room.

The guy who was tied up behind the curtain and freaked was pretty cool though.
