Surely Series 4 , ep 7 = The best of the current series to date.

Now that was a fascinating episode.

POSSIBLE SPOILERS BELOW

No matter how many of these type of programmes I've seen, there were moments in this episode, when I didn't want to look at the screen.
And, what's more, I might add that it was also good to see less of the ol' 'creative licence' in this episode.

Nonetheless, I've two comments for other viewers, and the first is about the tape recording.
The voice, I heard say, "...will die"
That much I could make out.
However, it didn't sound like "she..." to my ears. It sounded more like "they all will die" or even "cheer will die", rather than "she will die"
Anyone else agree that that isn't "she" in that recording? Or, that the word/s preceding "will die", were just too indistinct to make out?

Secondly, when they put crucifixes up, I found it odd that no mention was made of their being inexplicably removed shortly afterwards, as has been reported in certain other cases. In other words, they placed religious emblems on the walls, and they somehow remained in place!? That struck me as being odd, given the circumstances, and what's been reported many times previously; yet, OTOH, perhaps even a detail which they overlooked or such was edited out, but I do find it hard to believe that they remained in place to this day...

That being said, this was IMO one of the most compelling episodes in all four series to date.

PS- here is a tip, if you want to be surprised, or at least open to being surprised then never watch the preview minute at the start of every episode of PW, as it usually gives too much away. I never watch the preview minute (unless I'm re-watching an episode), and I definitely find watching PW all the better for avoiding it. Turn the sound down and walk out of the room for the first minute if you must, but whatever you do, don't watch the preview at the start of every episode. HTH

Yes, I just wrote a post myself, and though I did get a bit carried away, I thought the whole thing was a bit out there. Just what the hell is a "deliverance?" It that a Protestant word for exorcism? Yea, why is it that they draw a cross on a persons forehead and wear several pounds of emblems that do not work, but all the ones they have on the wall seem to stay in place for a long time then suddenly decide to act out as if it were a teenager rebelling against their parents.

Ever notice that anything that is not Christian must be evil? Right away, they see a Pentagram and automatically assume it is "Satanic." For all they know it was put there to ward off evil and they had to go and mess with it. I was waiting for the woman to start speaking in tongues.

So far, I think just about every episode has sucked royally. It seems that in the earlier season, there was some interesting aspect or some history given about why it might have occurred. I think PW is becoming too sensationalist and it is ruining the show. But, I would at least like to see the rest of the season to see if it gets better because I really have enjoyed it for the most part.

Next week it is the Perron family and I would like to watch that. I felt a bit like it was some sort of testeria going on and as much as I hate to say this, they came off looking like a bunch of rubes who tend to be very narrow minded.

The thing with most EVPs is that they never really sound very intelligible. A lot of the time when they play these things on TV shows, it's only when the program suggests what they think it sounds like, that I hear it too.

Overall, it was an okay episode. I wasn't that compelled by the story. The direction and production was fantastic. In particular, it was very well shot in the scene when the thing is on top of her and demanding her to look under the carpet. Not actually showing the thing clearly and having that antagonistic mass upon her was great. Also thought the music was great just before she got possessed. The actress looked hot in those short shorts.
