'Most Haunted' Once Again Under Scrutiny

Medium Chris Conway has left 'Most Haunted' and posted the following statement on his website:

"I'd like to start by thanking you guys for all the love and support you have given me since the start of my Most Haunted adventure :-) However, I feel I can no longer continue as Most Haunted resident medium. I appreciate the chance given to me to work in television and I plan to continue to do so in some other show.

I had the decision to make between fame/money V's My beliefs and principles. I won't go into details but I couldn't be a part of something I didn't trust. Too many things were happening contrary to what I was picking up or at times picking up no spirit activity at all.

I thought it wrong to agree with the fans criticisms of the show while picking up a pay cheque from Antix Productions. I feel that we were either the luckiest paranormal investigation group in the world or the tapping’s, stone throwing etc wasn't paranormal. This is of course my opinion and is in no way any accusation of fraud on my part. My decision was made for me when I realised that on receiving my call sheet on a Friday the venue was being written on it for this series. I am strongly against any advanced knowledge of where I’m investigating (unless it is made clear I know). I opened the files and looked up my hotel whilst having to ignore the rest of my call sheet. This meant I felt like I wasn’t fully involved.

I also feel that I wasn’t involved enough in the actual investigations. If I didn’t manage to pick up all the information in the first 15 minutes I’d lost my chance. Even bringing stuff through at the hub wasn’t being aired. This I felt was not fair on myself or the fans.

I understand that many people don't believe in mediumship and feel we should not have been used on the show. I respect this viewpoint and I feel that every belief system has to have a balanced argument. If everyone was a believer it would be open to abuse. However, if everyone was a sceptic it would mean that we may miss some important phenomena.

I realise that this statement may invite some mud slinging from Antix Productions but it is my opinions and the truth as I see it. I feel my fans (and Most Haunted fans in general) deserve to hear my truthful reasons for leaving the show. I refuse to walk away with an excuse of why I left, in the hope it will prevent my name being tarnished by others."

Blessings

Chris

NOTE: 'Most Haunted' has once again been accused of shenanigans. A few years ago, the team and crew were in the USA in nearby Gettysburg, PA for a week prior to the broadcast of their live show. I was able to 'sneak' around during that time and witnessed a few things that raised my suspicion of this production...especially after I talked to a few of the staff behind the scenes. Also, the local paranormal expert used by the team was an amateur at best....there were far better people available who were either not asked or refused to participate. The complete lack of historical facts of Gettysburg and the battle also irked me and many others. There have also been other show guests who have made comments concerning the authenticity of the show including regular guest parapsychologist Dr. Ciaran O'Keeffe. As well, clairvoyant/medium David Wells left to 'concentrate on writing' and other ventures...but there was speculation that he had also tired of how the things were conducted. Here's is a link to an ongoing Bad Psychics website thread referencing the show...Lon
