I'm a huge Ghost Adventures fan. (I have a Zak Bagans autograph on my wall)
I love the show, and I loved Nick in the show.
But, full disclosure, I consider myself an extremely open-minded skeptic.
I watch and enjoy Ghost Adventures for the entertainment value, and the creepy eerie vibes I get when I consider the possibility that it could be real.
Out of all the paranormal shows I've watched (and I've watched a ton), I think Ghost Adventures BY FAR comes across the most genuine, and authentic.
But I don't think I'll ever 100% believe in ghosts until I personally experience something unexplainable. But again, I'm completely open-minded.
With that said...
Paranormal Lockdown is the most blatantly fake show I've ever seen. It's borderline offensive to paranormal enthusiasts.
The "evp's" all sound like Sauron from Lord Of The Rings when he would speak through the ring.
The footsteps they hear sound like sound effects purchased from Spirit Halloween.
I watched an episode tonight, and this actually, literally happened
Nick: Where are you leading us?
Girl Ghost EVP: Basement
Evil Man EVP: NO!!
Girl Ghost EVP: Dig.
Evil Man EVP: SHUT UP!!
Evil Man EVP: THIS IS ALL MINE!!!!
THEN, then...
Then, Nick goes in the basement and crawls in a crawl space. And he says "AHH!! it's got my leg! It's clawing into my back!!"
I bursted out laughing. I wish Zak Bagans showed up to put Nick in a chokehold as a punishment for his disgraceful acting.
Fell upon Paranormal Lockdown on discovery+ after finishing Destination Fear. Was v surprised and excited to see it was Nick Groff's show!! Anyone who has seen it have any thoughts on it? So far it feels very genuine unlike some other ghost shows around
So not sure who knows and/or cares, but I just saw an episode where Nick went to Bobby Mackeys. I am not sure if I should consider it obvious but no straight up references to GAC, just stuff like "When I was here before..." etc etc. They captured cool evidence though, and debunked a few myths. And remember how Bobby was a skeptic through and through? Well, they changed that.
Sorry if a post like this is not allowed.
Their first episode, Trans-allegheny asylum.. seems so fake.
They get voices saying THREE of their names?
Plus that crawling guy on the floor at the end?
An evp literally responding "no" when asked "do you know you're dead?"
Their reactions to all the found evidence seems so unauthentic too.
Footsteps, saw several figures, got countless EVPs.
Just saying, if this exact same evidence was found on one episode of GA, it would be one of the most memorable episodes ever.
PL just seems fake to me.
Thoughts?
I think a certain amount of incredulity, sarcasm, and humor are often baked into the Ghost Adventures community. Including myself! Some times some dude-bros touching each other to feel each others' goosebumps is the light-hearted hilarity I need.
I also seriously appreciate them though, and watching Paranormal Lockdown UK with Nick and Katrina has helped me really appreciate Zak, Aaron, Billy, and Jay.
Nick just doesn't have a lot of charisma in PL UK, and benefited from having someone like Zak to play off of. But Katrina is so flat and uninterested/uninteresting its almost unbelievable that she's on tv. She has all the personality of the designated (and stoned) "chill girl" on your floor in the dorms freshman year of college. You never get the sense she cares at all about the investigation or any evidence. She just happens to be there. She could be doing anything and she'd be just as bored/boring. It's absolutely maddening.
Meanwhile, the GA crew, regardless of any serious criticism about their craft, are genuinely passionate and excited about what they're doing every episode. In a way, it also makes me believe them more too. I started watching out of a sense of irony, started to suspend some disbelief somewhere along the line, and now, realizing how into it they are, I'm pretty into it too.
Currently watching the very first episode of Nicks show called Paranormal Lockdown UK. Not super interested but I’ve always liked Nicks commentary and how respectful he is.
How do you guys feel about the show? Does it get better later on? Please feel free to remove if this is considered off topic!
You heard me!
I’m a big paranormal lockdown fan, seen both season 1 and 2. I was super excited for season 3 only to find out it premiered exclusively on a UK channel called quest.tv I think. Anybody have a link or something so I can watch the 3rd season here in America
Hello! I have no idea where to post this question, so I wanted to try here.
I'm trying to find season 3 full episodes but I can't seem to.
Anyone could help?
I especially liked the Hinsdale House. Very creepy. Nick's aversion and fear of Mary's room was especially interesting since that is the only space I've seen that he couldn't bring himself to sleep in.
*October 5th 2018 NEW EPISODE -Updated for s4e5 Skegness Hell House Uploaded https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x6utait
*Updated October 13, 2018- See my latest comment for link to newest episode! It is an openload link, so keep those adds of your back and enjoy!
I have no idea why Destination America & whatever network hasn’t released Season 3. The QuestUK in the UK has already released Season 3, and are finished. While Nick Groff & Katrina Weinman continue their good work, preparing for Season 4, but not for America’s enjoyment. We are stuck watching “All New” Ghost Adventures that are BS reruns! That’s ridiculous! I’m really over Ghost Adventures, but I loved both seasons we were able to watch of Paranormal Lockdown 2.
So I’m begging someone who works for Destination America or TLC (1 & 2 seasons) to please allow us to enjoy Paranormal Lockdown Season 3!!! 🙏
It was announced on Twitter that PL Season 3 will air in the UK on March 1, 2018. Announcements for the US will be revealed later. Stay tuned.
In their announcement they had a picture of one location that I happened to recognize after I was researching it. I won’t give the name but it’s an old hospital in New York state
So I just watched the last 2 episodes of Nick Groffs new show and it is really bad , I mean it is not even investigating it is 3 people standing around a box with lights and speakers and they ask questions, and then pareidolia kicks in and they start connecting these crazy dots. At leat Zak and crew investigate and use different pieces of gear for different areas and locations. The thing that gets me is that it seems like Mr. Groff was a better investigator 10 years ago !! This blows my mind , how do you go from being decent at your trade to an absolute flaming bag of shit. Im so glad that G.A.C. is still around and are pushing the limits with themselves and there equipment , becouse if you ask me EVERY OTHER SHOW seems , fake scripted and truly unbelievable . What do you guys and gals think......
I just recently saw an post online saying that Season 4 just started, but I don't remember ever watching season 3.
What are your thoughts on their first episode which aired yesterday on March 4th? It seemed very interesting and creepy.
This is the official discussion thread for the newest episode of Paranormal Lockdown.
Location: Anderson Hotel
Airtime: 03-11-16 at 10/9c on Destination America
Description: When the Anderson Hotel in Lawrenceburg, Kentucky closed its doors, not everyone checked out. The spirits of some of the former flophouse residents, whose tragic suicides mirrored their bleak lives, are said to haunt the rooms. But among these spirits resides a dark entity, unleashing vicious attacks on the living. Over their 72-hour confinement, their mental state deteriorates. They risk physical and psychological harm to cast out the negative spirit, when suddenly something lashes out!
Have fun discussing the new episode and keep it civil!
So I found out yesterday that Paranormal Lockdown season 3 started on March 1 in the UK but not anywhere else. Does anyone have a link or can tell me where i can watch the new episodes? Ive looked but not having any luck even in dailymotion. Thanks a bunch :)
I see this starts on quest red in the UK on Wednesday
Still no sign of season 3 at all though. It's incredibly annoying !
Did anyone manage to watch the Paranormal Lockdown Halloween special? I really enjoyed seeing a 100 hour lockdown, you start to get much more of a feel for the atmosphere of a location than you do with an overnight lockdown. Some great evidence captured and really interesting to see hauntings in Nicks own home. The ending felt somewhat staged, it was almost like watching a feature film reaching its grand finale, anyone else have any thoughts on this?

Location: Franklin Castle
Airtime: 03-18-16 at 10/9c on Destination America
Description: Nick and Katrina arrive in Cleveland, Ohio to investigate a Victorian mansion’s haunted secrets. Built in 1880, the Franklin Castle was home to wealthy immigrant, Hannes Teidemann, and his wife Louise. The couple had already buried three of their children before moving in. When another child dies, and then Louise, the house took on a darkness that remains to this day. Reports of a crying girl and a woman cloaked in black send the home’s future residents fleeing. Over the course of their 72-hour investigation, Nick and Katrina capture unnerving voices pleading for help. But it’s when the ghostly residents take on a physical form that the true tragedy of the Franklin Castle is revealed.

Location: Hinsdale House
Airtime: 04-01-16 at 10/9c on Destination America
Description: Hidden in the Adirondack Mountains is Hinsdale, a rural community in Northwestern New York. On the road out of town, one house stands apart in a clearing. For more than a hundred years, a dark infestation has possessed the surrounding hills and forests, while something more sinister has driven families from the home for generations. The tales, or a dangerous negative force, have drawn Nick Katrina to seek their own answers on what’s haunting Hinsdale. During their 72-hour confinement, Nick wages a psychological battle against good and evil that lingers long after he leaves.
I was watching this show until one episode came on where they are In a huge building that was being renovated and said to be previously owned by the mafia.. they were investigating by the pool which had a different name, i dont remember... all of a sudden you hear a loud bang and they were "stunned" what caught my eye is that you see an obvious flash on the ground (fire cracker) but they didn't "see it" even though the girl was right In front of it and it was pitch black in there. please add your thoughts if you saw this episode or if you have comments on other episodes... another thing I'd like to point out is why they just stop using the portal or geobox when they get great responses.. the spirit will even be asking them to go somewhere in the building.. they just shut that off before they go why!!!
