The Possessed The Possessed, A paranormal documentary by the Booth Brothers (Spooked, Children Of The Grave as seen on Sci Fi Channel. Brothers Grimm told fairy tales and it scared kids. The Brothers Booth tell real ghost stories and it scares everybody.You won't find a better paranormal documentary. I have a large collection and some of them are very good. However, the filmmakers seem to have a personal touch, they are passionate about their films and it shows in the finished product. A great addition to your collection. Based on true events, it contains disturbing images of real possessions, not for the faint of heart.

I usually will buy a DVD like this and just be bored to tears with it.

Many times these type things tend to be just a repackaged rehash of readily available information. Often you have seen most of it before.

This DVD presents the Lurancy Vennum story in a nice change of pace documentary style. It doesn't leave you with the feeling that you just got duped. The film makers have added in the contributing stories of other people, notably all very young, who have had thier own encounters with the supernatural. This just seems to support the overall credibility of the Lurancy Vennum story.

If you have an interest in this kind of phenomena you cannot go wrong having this in your DVD library.

It can add considerably to your knowledge base and also make you think hard about your current beliefs on the afterlife. Some of the EVP's featured in this program, if genuine, are genuinely creepy and disturbing.

This is a documentary based on a true story that took place about 100 years ago. Chris did a great job putting it all together, backed up by old newspaper articles and other evidence. I'm a long time skeptic, but this documentary really makes an interesting case and, due to the non-sensational way the families handled the issues around the possession makes it very believable.

I only got this film because I am doing a study of Homo Sapiens culture. This piece of trash full of camera tricks, fake ghost detecting instruments,bad acting tells a story alright but its not about ghosts. Its about how gullible people are and how they will do anything to make a few bucks.
