Is it for you?

Who'll love it
Made for anyone who likes to be kept guessing and the curious.
The mood
Tense, eye-opening.
The pace
12 seasons, but most episodes stand on their own, so you can dip in anywhere (about 60 minutes each).
What might put you off
  • Rated TV-PG: scary moments. Worth a look first if you have very young kids.
  • It was cancelled, so the story may not get a proper ending.

These are the true stories of the innocent and the unimaginable. Based on true events, A Haunting dramatises some of the scariest stories, revealing a world in which tragedy, suicide and murder have left psychic impressions so powerful that innocent people become forced to deal with them decades later. Through mesmerizing first-person accounts, the mystery and origin of each haunting is powerfully revealed and leaves a lingering sense that life—and death—are much stronger then anyone could have possibly imagined.
