Houghton Mansion

Warning: Spoilers
The team visit a old mansion, in North Adams, Mass, originally owned by a family which suffered a tragic car accident. It is now used as a Masonic Lodge. One of the better episodes, this is a large place with lots of corridors and looks like a great place for a Ghost Hunt. The team pick up a possible shadow person, a child's voice, EVP's, and capture a mist on a photo. Worth watching just for the moment Zack walks into a closed door, banging his head.

A lot of evidence, avoided

This is an excellent attempt to investigate real ghost inhabited houses/locations. The key mistakes are: The very limited examples Zak and the other two members provided (A) Motion detectors in front of a door displaying a small faint shadow, that they spent like 5 or 6 minutes talking about and replaying. (B) One single voice of a girl, very unusual/creepy, yet extremely rushed/brief and during most of the time they could have heard more from this girl's voice, they continued to all talk at the same time, which happens throughout pretty much all ghost investigation shows. (C) When Zak goes into Mary's room he spends way too little time waiting for a response/taking digital stills. (D) We never hear the footsteps coming up the staircase when Nick and Aaron are about to investigate the room with the electric chair because they're both talking the entire time. (E) Footage doesn't provide enough audio/visual in the basement when Zak heard/saw something that made him lunge forward out of his chair. He just starts shouting about it.

Conclusion: if the team would stop talking, listen more, and keep their cameras on what it is they see, it would be a far better show. 6.5/10
