Do You Believe In GHOSTS?





At the urging of both my sister and
I just finished binge-watching all 5 seasons
of the British TV series Ghosts.


Turns out I love the series and recommend it!
Its goofy humour is offset by some
truly heart-wrenching moments when
the sad backstories of the ghosts are revealed.

But there's good news for fans of the show!
Although its TV run is over, they have now made
a movie called Ghosts: The Possession of Button House.

Here's the trailer --

I rather enjoy Ghosts. It's part of my "light" Halloween watch.

I would so enjoy all this, but I don’t think I can get SG to watch it. Maybe one for myself.

Bob said...

I think CBS created a version of Ghosts for American TV though i haven't seen it.

Sixpence Notthewiser said...

OMG I love that series!
Yes to the movie and to Haunted Rivalry! Gimme!

XOXO

Debra She Who Seeks said...

@ Bob -- Yes, you're right -- there's an American version and an Australian version too.

Debra She Who Seeks said...

@ Sixpence Notthewiser -- Hahahaha, yes, I put that Haunted Rivalry meme in there just for you!

I haven't seen ghosts but a couple of people and you have now recommended it. :) I love the librarian meme.

Jane said...

I've seen both the British and American versions of Ghosts. I like them both, but the American version is just a little different. I can't wait to see the movie!

Duni said...

I enjoyed watching that series. I hope to see the movie too!

Travel said...

Wait for the ghost to turn the page.

I've never seen the Brit one. But I absolutely love the US one - which I understand is pretty much a carbon copy of situations but set in New England.

Yessss, I do 🎃🎃🎃 Indeed, there are more between Earth & Sky . It's a common quote by the way.

I love the U.S. version of Ghosts and I'm just waiting for the new season to start up!
As for "real" ghosts ... I have seen, heard, felt, smelled their perfume ... nothing to be afraid of and they don't just happen at nighttime!

sirkkis said...

Sure, I've seen one as a child; I woke up at night and saw one dancing in our Christian tree 👻

I do actually believe in ghosts mainly because my sister could see them. She didn't like it and never tried to interact with them except her husband. He appeared to her weeks after he died sitting on the side of the bed asked her where all his stuff was. Well, Michael, you died she told him. I did, he asked.

We watched an episode or two of that.

I watched the American Version of Ghosts for a few seasons, then it got boring and eventually jumped the shark. As for do you believe in ghosts ... I have stories about several encounters that I've kept to myself because no one would or could believe them.

I like the ghost that reads.

Have a lovely day.

Jamie Ghione said...

Good ones. Gave me an idea for today.

Mistress Maddie said...

RedPat said...

I have watched both of the series and enjoyed them both. Love the ghost reading slowly, Debra.

e said...

Pretty sure I'll be the reading ghost eventually.

DB Stewart said...

I've been curious about this series for a while...will finally check it out. Thanks.

I have always loved Casper the friendly ghost 👻 LOL

Lady M said...

I am so glad you enjoyed it. I think it is one of the most creative and fun tv series I have seen in a long time.

Rostrose said...


Dear Debra, thanks to you, I’ve learned that there is a British original version of the US series *Ghosts*, which I enjoy watching on Netflix! From the trailer, it looks like the British version is more elaborate and exciting, featuring a larger cast of ghosts... but I suppose I’ll have to make do with the Netflix version here in Austria. A pity... but it’s also quite funny!!
All the best from Austria 🤗

I'm so glad they made the movie. I loved this series too.

DVArtist said...

I do believe in ghost. I've been seeing this series on my TV, I will give it a try.

Kathy G said...

Love the cat snuggled on the ghost's lap.

Tom said...

I can't say that I do!

Yorkshire Pudding said...

There's no such thing as ghosts so I tend to stay clear of all that bollix. It just makes me yawn.

Fundy Blue said...

I'm not sure about ghosts, Debra. Some people in my family have had unusual, powerful ghost experiences, but not me.

Kirk said...

That video makes me want to watch that!

River said...

I have never heard of Ghosts (the series) but I think I'd love it and the movie too.

roentare said...

I love the series but each episode is too short for me

I love the story of the slow reading ghost. I've never watched the series but you've piqued my interest, 'tis the season...

Ghosts (aka spooks) are all in Washington.

baili said...

thanks for chuckles dear Debra
i think ghost is in our head and comes out when we mess with this energy through intense activity like watching a really horror movie
i enjoyed the trailer ,it's fun no doubt

CaptainKirt said...

From the team that brought us Horrible Histories (my kids loved it), there are 6 adaptations of Ghosts so far, I've seen 3.

1. United Kingdom (Original)
2. United States
3. Germany
4. France
5. Greece
6. Australia

Debra She Who Seeks said...

@ CaptainKirt -- Wow, I didn't know there are so many! I wonder if Canada will ever make a version uniquely for Canadian ghosts? Could be fun!

Elderberry-Rob said...

We love Ghosts here in the UK, there is an American version which we found very different as their humour is a little different. Can't wait for the movie! and yes I have seen a ghost myself but I think they are traces of our DNA that leave an imprint on places and people and some people are able to 'conjure' or see/feel that but I think the person the DNA belongs to is no longer here.

Danielle said...

Love these

The Happy Whisk said...

Such a great show. I've only seen the UK one and sadly, didn't get to see them all but WE LOVED IT. Really, really, really good. Two invisible thumbs up. Hahahaha on the girl reading. What a hoot.
