Let’s face it, most paranormal reality shows can come across as a bit of a scam; it seems as popularity rises, authenticity decreases, particularly with the quite frankly poor acting in shows such as Most Haunted and Celebrity Ghost Hunt. The question of credibility can not be answered for many of these series but when it comes to recent YouTube Horror Channel, Haunting Season and its release of a series exploring a haunted convent, there’s a refreshing honesty that comes across from the creators, making these short films not only an entertaining watch, but also an uncanny and eerie one.
Haunting Season was launched over a month ago by creator Joshua Sterling Bragg as a creative space to launch videos of supernatural anecdotes and scary films. What I found personally enjoyable about the channel is Bragg’s own telling of ghost stories such as A Haunting in the Woods and The Devil’s Grip where his accomplished and animated storytelling really nudges the viewer’s scary bone, bringing back those familiar goose bumps present at the ghost tale era of your childhood sleepovers.
What else is included in Haunting Season are short films including Bragg’s newest development where every Tuesday the network will unleash a paranormal investigation in this field. The first two episodes are already up to see, taking a look at a haunted convent turned theater in New Jersey. It’s surprising to see their level of knowledge and professionalism, with Bragg’s associate actually being an employee of the theater. High profile investigative shows have camera crews, large budgets and research teams to back them, where as Haunting Season is a totally independently produced collection. Contrary to this the team does a good job of setting up sound equipment as well as initializing the video with a well-researched and quite frankly creepy back story.
What makes this channel a winner for me is a combination of Bragg’s charming presence on screen, his passion for supernatural findings and of course the subject matter itself. Here is a reality ghost show without the ulterior motive, making the videos not only plausible but also entertaining. The station has now generated over 1000 subscribers and 50,00 views and it is forever growing. If you share the love, or in my case, curious fear of ghosts then subscribe and support Braggs and the team in their apparitional adventures while checking out their first investigation at http://youtube.com/hauntingseason. Serving suggestions: at night with the lights off.
