Product Description
Timeless Media Group, in cooperation with New Dominion Pictures, is proud to present this 9 DVD set of the first four seasons of A Haunting, 39 episodes in all. As seen on the Discovery Channel, each of these one-hour episodes explore the most mysterious and baffling true cases of hauntings, visitations and ghostly, ghastly doings ever assembled. These stories of demon possession, the unquiet ghosts of the dead, and many more tales of the supernatural will take you to the edge of reason and beyond. Each episode is complete with interviews of the victims of these eerie and unexplainable paranormal events. Teams of parapsychologists try to discover the roots of these strange happenings and to put the demons to rest, with exorcisms, cleansing rites and strange incantations, sometimes having unexpected results! As you explore the darker regions of the unseen and unsettling world of spirits, poltergeists and phantoms, you may find yourself becoming convinced that things are not what they seem, and indeed, are much more sinister and scary than you ever thought possible.

5.0 out of 5 stars Scary and Thought Provoking Show without Gore, January 2, 2009

By	Admiralu "admiralu" (Camarillo, California United States) - See all my reviews

I was a fan of A Haunting when it ran on the Discovery channel and I was very sad to see them cancel this show. A Haunting was produced by New Dominion Pictures, who did the FBI Files and the New Detectives series that also ran on Discovery. For those who are not familiar with the show, A Haunting covers real life experiences of encounters with the paranormal. Interviews with people who experienced the paranormal activity are included. Some appear in shadow and the show is augmented by reenactments of their stories. What sets this show apart from others is the high quality production values and interview with both the individuals and the paranormal investigators who assisted them and shed light into their craft. The various methods of scientific study and differing types of hauntings, demons, phantoms and etc. are fascinating. This show is scary, (scarier than many horror movies, it was so well produced) there is no gore, but the atmosphere is extremely creepy. If you watch some of these episodes late at night, they can give people bad dreams, as seveal of my coworkers will attest. It is so well done, that the actors simply blend into the roles. There are four seasons in this set. I will share some of my favorites.

Season 1
Hell House - A demon story featuring the renowned Ed and Lorraine Warren. One of the scariest shows of the entire series.

Season 2
Gateway to Hell - A haunted nightclub built on the site of an old slaughterhouse by the Licking River which flows true north. Another one of the scariest of the series.

Hungry Ghosts - A house in Taiwan that was built to curse its inhabitants. Another series scariest.

Where Demons Dwell - A young boy is tormented by a deomonic presence and Ed and Lorraine Warren are called in. Very creepy!

Ghost Solider - A haunted photograph complicates a lonley woman's life when she finds not one but two spirits.

Season 3
Fear House - A house that sends many of its occupants fleeing. One former resident attempts to help another family before its too late.

The Unleashed - A man plays with witchcraft and suffers the consequences. Very scary.

Wheatsheaf Horror - A a spirit haunting a pub in Britain attacks those within and a psychic faces her own fears.

The Possessed - A paranormal investigator becomes possessed herself and seeks help from legendary demonolgist John Zaffis. One of the the scariest of the entire series.

Season 4
The Apartment - The spirits of a drug dealer and his victim haunt a young couple and terrify a psychic.

Where Evil Lurks - A family discovers that their house is a portal to hell. When one demon is banished another takes its place. Another scary one.

Casa De Los Muertos - A famous musician with the gift of sense battles a deadly ghost. I won't give away the twist of this story. Another creepy tale.

Legend Trippers - Teens are fascinated by an eerie legend in an old cemetery. Sereral groups who experienced the haunting are profiled.

A Haunting is an excellent show that will make you think twice about how to perceive the world. It is also interesting to see how the people handled what they experienced. Some turned to their faith, others turned away and many who did not believe in the paranormal now do.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fabulous, November 29, 2008

By	M. Reinhart - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

First, there are some bad points. The DVDs contain almost forty hours of A Haunting, the complete seasons 1-4, and if you watch them all at once, they got old fast. Plus, all my friends whined about the series being repetitious and some were not impressed with the documentary style. But let's face it, no one would buy this if he or she wasn't a fan of A Haunting, so I don't think that matters. It's great to have the entire series on DVD! It's wonderful to be able to watch episodes I've missed! There are nine DVDS, each in its own box, with a few DVDs on each disk. The episode selection menu changes halfway through, and that's weird. But overall, the DVDs are easy to use and really fun to watch! And if nothing else, if you really want to torture your normal friends, you can suggest an A Haunting marathon. That's what I did.
