‘Ghostwatch’: Banned Mockumentary, Deemed Too Disturbing for BBC, Finally Airing in U.S.
On Halloween 1992, the BBC aired Ghostwatch once, and only once. The 90-minute drama was presented as a live investigation into a supposedly haunted house that aimed to prove that the supernatural was real. The BBC received 30,000 calls about the program in a single hour, some parents filed formal complaints that their children had posttraumatic stress disorder from watching the disturbing content, and one family claimed the show contributed to the suicide of their son.
