Since I saw a ghost at Lake Lure about 10 years ago, I have been fascinated by scientific endeavors at capturing evidence of ghosts. My favorite show, due it's lack of "hokey-ness" is TAPS - Ghost Hunters that airs on the SciFy Network on Wednesdays.
They have filmed an episode at Fort Ticonderoga and it will air on March 10th. A producer for the show said it is one of his favorite shows ever and it will be an hour long instead of the usual half hour.
CAN'T WAIT!!!!

Ha ha! I love Ghost Hunters. I'm addicted to watching the reruns on Hulu. I'm inclined to think that most of their "evidence" is faked---like the most recent episodes of GH International, where they supposedly got photos of several ghosts---but I still watch it. Hubby makes fun of me for it. I'll have to check out the Fort Ti episode. Here's a link to the various online episodes through Hulu, if anyone is interested: http://www.hulu.com/search?query=ghost+hunters&st=0 |

I've been to Fort Ti many times too. I watched the show and enjoyed
it. I just wish those guys would wear small cameras on their heads
so we could see what they see. I wanted to see the flash of light in
that room. It happened so fast their cameraman missed it.
I've been to the Fort in October for their "Haunted Fort tours".
Now "that's" a fun time. I'm going to have to go again and really
listen and watch for ghosts. I didn't know it was so haunted.
I agree with Fitz, they should have spent more time on the battlefield.
They should have shown more, including the ridges of earth.

I would say that:
1. If I were to look for ghosts at Fort Ti
2. If I believed that there were ghosts at Fort Ti
3. If I were serious about it
then I would go out to the original lines and not to the fort. If there are any present, it will be at the original lines. A friend and I were going out there Saturday night after the group of Scots passed (that were honoring the dead of 250 years ago), but then we got drunk and started singing with the French and forgot all about it. |

Thanks, Seamus! I may have to agree with Fitz on this one, though ...  |

I started watching, then dozed off half way through. Hard to believe that grown people can make a show out of that. But looking at what passes for reality TV, I guess I shouldn't be surprised. Definitely one to forget. |

Don't feel bad, Rich - I missed it too. We were out to eat for my daughter's birthday, her 23rd.
I hate Grant missed the investigation (Hold me, Grant! ). It was really cool to see the guys in rooms and places that I remember!
Thanks for the link, Seamus!!

I found it fascinating! Having been there so many times and in most of the places featured, I was intrigued. In addition, seeing people I know well made it more fun for me. I have camped very near the very spot of the Rev War cemetery (not permitted to camp in that area, itself), many times, but have never experienced anything like what they did.
My 4 1/2 year-old grandson wanted to know what they were going to do with a ghost if they captured one. He asked if he could have it! I told him they would probably check it out and leave it there for other kids to see. He was OK with that! |

Rich - I had met Kate and Marcia and Theresa and Claude and Christina for a fall rendezvous and we stayed at the lake cabins that the Geneva manages. We were sitting around a camp fire and I was very relaxed, a little tired, and had been noticing little "skitterings" out of the corner of my eye all evening. I was listening to conversations with heavy eyelids, just before falling asleep and was startled to see a dark shadowy figure walking behind one of the group. It was a small women with long hair. She just seemed to want to listen in and there was nothing threatening about her at all!
On another occasion, Kate saw someone standing behind me in the kitchen of the cabin. When we were checking out, we asked Vicki (our Geneva manager friend) if anyone had ever reported seeing ghosts and she "Oh yeah!", She asked if it was a male or a female, and we told her about the lady at the campfire and she said "Oh that would be Miss ??" (I forget her name). Apparently the large cabin had been built near the grave of a women that ran a station on the old coach road through Lake Lure. Saw it with my own eyes, been a believer ever since. |

Oh, thanks for the heads up!! I love Ghost Hunters! The hubby and I have been watching it since the first season. And of course that same reason that draws us to the show, they are real and professional about finding ghosts and paranormal activity. Not like alot of these others shows that have people running around being all crazy and having fainting spells  I will be tuning in March 10th, it should be a good one! |
