  • Fine if you like Woo

    If you want well-told ghost stories, with a majority that even seem plausible, stick with earlier seasons. If you want a heavier dose of people sending in creative writing exercises presented as ghost stories, or hearing people talk about crystals (sigh) then the recent seasons are for you.
