Background
A Haunting began as two feature-length specials, "A Haunting in Connecticut" and "A Haunting in Georgia", that were developed by Allison Erkelens, who also served as head writer. The specials were executive produced by Tom Naughton and Nicolas Valcour for New Dominion Pictures.[1] And after many people started coming to tell their story, it became a regular show on the Discovery Channel Based on strong ratings, A Haunting became a one-hour series on The Discovery Channel produced by Larry Silverman.
Most episodes present several accounts of paranormal experiences through cinematic reenactments, which are accompanied by commentary from eyewitnesses and investigators themselves. A Haunting has covered several incidents, including traditional haunting, demonic attacks, possessions, and cryptic visions.[2][3]
Episodes within the series usually follow a typical format, in which victims of hauntings begin noticing peculiar incidents that gradually become more frequent and bizarre. Ultimately, they either contact a paranormal investigator, religious figure, or spiritual medium for assistance. In some cases, victims are able to successfully resolve their paranormal issues, while in others, victims are forced to vacate their residence.[4][5] Certain episodes have also featured commentary from famed demonologists Ed and Lorraine Warren, who have actually investigated some of A Haunting's cases.[4]
Episodes
The show has aired 4 seasons.
