It's a show designed for entertainment purposes only. Don't expect to learn much from these and other shows except how to operate the equipment they're using and how to work effectively in teams in uncomfortable situations.
The thing that bothers me the most about these shows is that people watching them assume they have gleaned some occult knowledge, and they haven't. Occult studies take lots of time, dedication, and patience. I've studied independently for about nine years now and I would say that I'm probably still quite shy of an adeptus.
Occult study cannot be summed up into a TV series. It requires quite a bit of academic study. If you want to get started, my best suggestion is to record your dreams and experiences and do nothing about it; study many different religions and their ritual practices from around the world from BOOKS and other scholarly literature. Commit everything to memory or record as much as you can, and only investigate things when you're confident you are not going to let your hysterics get the best of you.

Also, I'm moving this thread to the S&P in the Media subforum.

It's an interesting show and all, but I don't think it's real. First of all, last week I decided to watch it and see if it's real, and on of the girls got freaked out by a footstep and decided the location was haunted. Second, everyting in the videos looked animated in. Last, the "clubhouse?" What is this show, a ghost hunters version of "Scooby Doo, Where Are You?"?!?!?!

I just think it's ridiculous. Certain people (KC) are always saying that a place is haunted just because it feels creepy. They hardly ever have any truly convincing evidence. It's also very hard to run that kind of ghost hunting format in a half hour show.
Plus they don't set up until after it's dark, so they don't really know what the place is like during the day. Then again, it's on Cartoon Network so it's probably not meant to be taken too seriously.

Ketchup Is Not Real II Mezo Panda My thoughts are in your post.
Just something to scare kids... looks like the kids in the show just want to get scared themselves. Dx Yeah, I mean, I think they're just going to go in and say it's haunted. "OMG I HEARD FOOTSTEPS11!!! IT'S HAUNTED!". And not even try to debunk anything. Sorry, it may be for little kids. But that's so irritating how they would make a show like that. When we already have shows about Ghost Hunting. We don't need some little kids, running around like that. Agreed. I tried to watch it. I really did try. Had to turn it off after 5-10 minutes. The clubhouse comment broke my brain, too. I mean, if this is meant for kids, they should at least make it based on debunking or....anything scientific instead of just trying to scare the bejesus out of them. It just kind of ticks me off when networks throw shows out there just because they can without any solid concept. It almost looks as if they were like, 'Hey! Reality shows are popular. So are ghost hunting shows. Let's just do that and throw some kids in there! What? Train the kids to be able to handle what they're experiencing properly? Nah, we don't need that.' Cartoon Network has really started to go downhill. The only reason they're switching to "reality shows" like everyone else and their grandma is because it's cheap as all get out and that's what's "popular." Bah, I digress.
