Paranormal State episode report card.

“Haunted Piano”

After antiques collectors bring a certain piano into their home, Lorraine Warren must lend her expertise to dismantle and destroy the instrument.

Paranormal State examines an old piano for paranormal activity. The weakest episode so far and really low on the believability scale.

Client Credibility

The clients were named Nadine and John. They took the piano off the hands of someone who just wanted to get rid of it. They were antique collectors or just like old stuff. Their stories amounted to just getting “bad feelings” and they attribute those feelings to this piano.

They had a bunch of mice in their home after bringing in the piano claiming they don’t usually have mice in their home.

There is not much to base their credibility on other than their feelings of something paranormal happening.

Investigation

The team did their best but they didn’t really have much to go on. They did have a “piano expert” check out the piece and he did say that mice will nest in them. Which is obvious to us that is what happened. They didn’t clearly say that this was the case but to us viewing the show it seemed obvious.

The team called the former owners of the piano and the people did not want to talk to them. It’s most likely that they just were happy to get rid of the heavy piece of wood and didn’t want someone to dump it back on them.

Evidence

There wasn’t any.

Conclusion

This episode really shouldn’t have made it to air. It was kind of a waste of time actually. Ryan has said part of the show is to educate the public about different types of paranormal activity and “haunted objects” are a part of that world.

They just picked a lame one to illustrate it.
