Nick Groff's latest show is based on the idea of investigating theories about the paranormal. In the first episode he considers the view that ghostly sounds are in fact communications/noises from people living in a different time period, but somehow time and space has become distorted so we can hear these people now and the people living in the different time periods hear us as if it is their present time! He visits well known locations, interviews knowledgeable people on site and undertakes his own investigations as to whether the theories hold true. Using a ghost voice box the messages he gets suggest that they are communications from people whom do not realise that they are dead!
I think the idea for the show is great and it perhaps filling a niche that has not already been done. However, the big problem with the first episode is can Nick Groff be sure that his supposed communications using his ghost boxes are in fact voices of the dead and not other electronic phenomena? This of course makes the whole ideas he is investigating even harder to prove and test! I think I would have preferred it if the show showed a bit more theory behind the ideas and included any academic research. (Perhaps the budget for the programme is insufficient to do this, although the show itself is very well made and edited.)
Maybe a better idea for a show - especially for Nick Groff trying to make new shows and comeback into broadcasting - would be to produce a history of paranormal or whether we can trust the technology? (A chance for revenge on Ghost Adventures?!)
I shall be looking forwards to the rest of the series with interest. Personally, I am a huge fan of paranormal shows such as Paranormal Lockdown, Ghost Adventures and Paranormal Caught on Camera! I also spend a lot of time watching paranormal investigations on YouTube.
