Amazon.co.uk Review

To the initiated there is no need for an explanation, but for those yet to catch the Living TV flagship series here's a brief intro to Most Haunted. Basically they are the admin side of the Ghostbusters: a team consisting of former Blue Peter presenter Yvette Fielding, historian Richard Felix, paranormal researcher Phil Whyman and, of course, ex-Liverpool footballer-turned-spiritualist medium, Derek Acorah. Together with a film crew they investigate paranormal events at haunted locations in the dead of night, looking for ghostly evidence such as moving furniture, unexplained light anomalies called orbs (the first sign of spirit manifestation) and titbits of information from Derek's spiritual guide Sam.

The Very Best of Most Haunted is a mixed bag. It shows brief excerpts from the first series, but taken out of context the snippets look like a bunch of grown-ups running around in the dark scaring each other. However, the hour-long special from Levens Hall is what it's all about: a thorough investigation brimming with activity caught on camera (especially the haunted bedroom). The running order of the DVD is best bits first then the special from Levens Hall, but if you've never seen Most Haunted before, try watching it the other way round and the excerpts at the beginning will make a lot more sense.

On the DVD: The Very Best of Most Haunted also offers deleted scenes from the first series, with Derek stumbling to get information from spirit guide Sam; interesting stuff, especially as the broadcast episodes were cut to a mere 30 minutes each. --David Trueman

5.0 out of 5 stars A interesting & creepy gem for sceptics and believers alike, 12 Jul 2003
By Mr. N. C. Woollsey "woollseys" (Norwich, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Never having had the pleasure of watching the satellite TV show "Most haunted" I had no preconceptions (other than those given in the official Amazon review which prompted me to buy)when this DVD dropped through my letterbox - however, I can say that after watching it through twice in less than 24 hrs this really is a splendid documentary for those who have either a serious or passing interest in the subject of ghosts.
The programmes first half is a compilation of several nights spent in reputedly haunted buildings around the UK with the investigators, filmed in an eerie grainy green night-vision, starting off in a jocular mood to seek out the alledged spirits that walk there. However, the hiliarity is soon killed off by some genuinely unsettling and mysterious incidents that have nearly the whole production crew (including the sceptic !) running back the way they came - the look on Yvette Fielding's face in many instances is no "mock horror" for some spoof documentary - this woman is genuinely VERY scared !
Sceptics may find the input from the team's spiritualist medium, Derek Acorah, when he is attempting to converse with the resident ghosts to be a touch theatrical - however, as the programme progresses it becomes more and more apparent that he is uncannily accurate on many points about the history of the buildings & their former occupants. Certainly he is more than capable of sending a shiver down the spine as he alledgedly talks with the Earth-bound spirits - there is an air of genuiness about him that makes it plain that "something" is definately going on...
The highlight of the DVD must be the startling (and unexplained) light phenomena that was captured on the night vision equipment in several of the locations visited (in particular Leven hall which the second half of the documentary is devoted to). Orbs, flashing lights and what look like streamers of glowing material are plainly visible and yet (most disconcerting of all) sometimes not seen by the investigators until after they had viewed their tapes.
Even those people with a mild interest in the subject matter will find this a real treat - just don't watch it alone and with the lights off !!

5.0 out of 5 stars A BRILLIANT show, 14 Oct 2004
This is a fantastic buy. It includes Derek Acorah getting possesed twice. Yvette Fielding has a strange outburst in the Derby Gaol, orbs, spirits, an hour long special of Levens Hall, things being thrown, a pair of ghostly feet, sadly you can't see them, phew! The list is endless. I recommend you buying it. It really is the Very Best of Most Haunted. Try it, and don't have nightmares!!
