Good history.
Rating: 4While this wasn't the Haunted History programs from the History Channel, this collection provides a spookey and interesting insight into things such as hauntings, the witch trials, and the history of Halloween.
The video quality of the discs isn't exactly stellar, but considering most of it was shot in the early '90s, it's in the best quality possible.
The biggest downside of the set is the fact that all five discs come in bulky, full-sized cases. There are no real inserts to speak of, so why the massive cases? This set would greatly benefit from being in 5 slim cases, or even better, 3 slim dual cases.
Otherwise, it's a good set at a great price. If you're interested in this stuff, I recommend it.

Haunted History a good deal.
Rating: 5Haunted History was purchased primarily for the Halloween segment which I had my substitute teacher show to my World History class on Oct 31st while I was away on a trip. I previewed the video before showing it and felt it gave a nice treatment of the subject. The other videos I consider a bonus and made this a good buy. All are good as would be expected from History Channel.

Rating: 3ok, i am into paranormal however, this series just doesn't cut it! too short when covering subject matter and didn't tell me anything that i didn't know already. in fact, i fell asleep watching one of the DVDs!

Halloween must haves.
Rating: 4I used to watch these every year on the History Channel. Its to bad they dont run them during Halloween anymore, or at least make new ones. Some new insight on Salem would be nice.
