Living TV has finally released the rights to Most Haunted back to Karl Beattie and Antix Productions. This means Karl could now take the show to another TV station.
The statement from Living TV said: “We have decided not to recommission Most Haunted and will be giving Antix Productions the right to take it to another channel if they wish,” Sky Living said. “We would like to thank Yvette Fielding and Karl Beattie for all of their hard work and commitment over the years.”
The statement continued: “Like every commercial TV channel, Sky Living is constantly developing new ideas. We recognise our customers’ appetite for paranormal programming and have recently aired a series about popular psychic Sally Morgan and original scripted drama Bedlam, which proved to be the channel’s most successful commissioned series in its history.
“As well as paranormal, the channel will build on other successful genres, from scripted comedy to real-life relationships, which we know our customers also enjoy.”
The news was posted on Karl Beattie’s Facebook and in the Sun Newspaper.

Hi Guys Just wanted to give you the official news. SkyLiving has decided not to re-commission MH which is sad news, however, we have been given our rights back, so we can go to other broadcasters with it. I think that a new home and better investigation techniques will move MH into the next phase making it bigger and better than ever. We are very excited about MH’s future, so onwards and upwards my paranormal friends. xx
The Sun 13th August
GHOST-busting show Most Haunted has been axed by Sky Living – a year after Yvette Fielding quit.
The channel will return the programme rights to production company Antix, run by Yvette, 42, and husband Karl Beattie.
A spokesman said Sky Living will focus on other paranormal TV, including psychic Sally Morgan’s show and drama Bedlam.
On 27th October 2011, Karl Beattie announced via his Facebook profile;
“Unfortunately we didn’t have enough time to get a programme sorted for halloween, getting all the rights back took much longer than first thought. But we are back now, next year we will be looking to go bigger and better than ever before and we will take halloween back.
We are about to sign a very exciting deal with a very large company to take Most Haunted to the next level. So watch this space. And thanks for all of your support and undying loyalty, which in this industry is a very rare thing indeed, thank you all it means so much.”

Good Afternoon all

2 weeks and 3 days to halloween silver shamrock la la xxxxxxxxxx
@ anita your welcome
thanks jason i never knew that page existed!
@ Claire: As always, I can’t fault your arguments. 🙂
Thank you.
Mum’s going back to work tomorrow, so hopefully she will be alright.
Aww… Poor cat. I hope that he gets his mojo back soon.
Hi All
@ Tracey you have the summed up just how me and Vicki and a lot here feel about MH.
“Derek A’s bottom looming into the camera as he tried to help Stuart, and treading all over him in the process”
lmao gotta love that man lol
“I miss David Wells so much. So articulate, believeable, interesting and full of personality and likeability. In my opinion he left a gap in the MH team that they’ve never been able to fill”
Absolutely they lost a real gem and i think for the re launch of the show they will need someone as close to him as possible.
The house is a s***pit sorry but it is i had no idea i was such a hoarder. nightmare! But by Halloween i will no longer have horror film walls ALL over the freaking house.x
@AWWW Vicki thats not very good poor Mum and you all.
Now you can google this to check but it wont hurt your Mum. Tell her to drink at least 1 litre of pure Apple juice a day, if she doesn’t like it tell her to hold her nose. And Epsom salts baths (you can get that much cheaper on Ebay thats where i get mine) no more than 3 baths a week using up to 2 tcups per bath. Work up to this as if you start off with 2 cups it can knock the legs off you. Also a drink of water before going into bath and after as it can dehydrate you. It is good stuff honest you check it.
As for you BDay you will all have a better one next year as if i remember right you will be 21 then thats the biggy x.
Re my cat just messin about the eye patch. If he gets his mojo back then fine but he is jumping at his own shadow right now so…
I hate Vets arggg
@ Jason if i was i housewife you’d be my favourite lol x.
Right i’m off to the shops what fun ( roll eyes)xxx
@ Claire: I have loads of fond memories of her. (^_^)
I hope your cat is alright. x
I don’t know if we’ll be doing much, it all depends on how Mum is feeling, she had an operation to remove a 7cm ovarian cyst nearly two weeks ago. She’s a lot better now, but I don’t want her to do too much if she can’t.
@ Tracey: Amen to that! I miss David Wells a lot; David, Ciaran and Richard Felix made the show for me. Even if MH doesn’t come back, I’d like them to do a series together. (^_^)
Hi all
@Claire – argh I know all about the stressful protests from the cat in the car. God the miaowing and yowling is pitiful and upsetting isn’t it?
I thought I remembered Stuart T blaming his hair loss on the Ancient Ram Inn (fantastic place, weird landlord though). I remember the ‘loft attack’ well, which featured a lot of Derek A’s bottom looming into the camera as he tried to help Stuart, and treading all over him in the process.
God I want the show back so much !
Am wading through Series 14 at the moment. Stuart T appears to be taking quite a back seat in this series. Chris the medium is a very nice man, but appears to be scared to speak up.
I miss David Wells so much. So articulate, believeable, interesting and full of personality and likeability. In my opinion he left a gap in the MH team that they’ve never been able to fill.
Good luck with the Artex, Claire ! (rather you than me!)
@claire i thought i was the housewifes favourite lol dam second best again lol
Hello All
Good Lord hehe what yaps i’ve got lots to catch up on so if i miss out anyone bear with me home improvements going on and its a nightmare some maniac threw artex about when it was cool ??? and i’m finally getting rid hate the stuff.
Me poor cat too talk about bad timing for the little fella. Yip operation cat basket is not so easy not quite mission impossible but close. Then the loud stressful protests in the car too complete terror at the vet. He goes back in a week what a thought.
Bought him a wig 2 years back lol he just sat there getting his picture taken he is used to living with a loony. He is getting so suki i am getting all my bubble cuddles as he is so glad to be home. Enough Claire sorry but just luv my little coochie woochie catx
@ Vicki Aww your cat sounded like a little princess full of character no wonder you miss her they leave quite a hole eh x
You got your birthday weekend sorted?
@ Jason thanks thats good to hear that they are still scouting tv channels it belongs on tv. J how can you not know who the housewives fav is lol he used to be on Gardeners World if that helps.
@ Tracey yes Stuart is completely hairless and he puts it down entirely to his MH experiences starting with that run down (death trap) house occupied by that old hippie and his succubus was it The Rams Head Inn when he was attacked in the loft of a barn??
Great evps!! great show !! sadly missed!!
@ Caroline wow stuff moving is that not classic poltergiest phenomenom also re the smell i think the real one to worry about is a sulpher rotten egg smell. But it must be awful for your husbands friend not a lot of people to turn to or would believe you either. I can suggest a few things but it is difficult. May run its course you should ask if there has been any turmoil in his life etc, ie when it began you know. But sounds a little unpleasant to say the least for him\family.
OOO nearly forgot @ Jan Johnson
“been ghost hunting with Carl Stuart and phil at Wakefield” Do tell ???
Gotta go c u xx
Look if this is dafter or more mistakes than normal sorry not reread and been in an out of room quite a bit before posting so a pet might have said hello in my absence sorry but well……

we need most haunted back real badly. Do we all have to wait please let us know when your coming back thanks.
@ Jason thanks for that enjoyed browsing on MH facebook.
@anita http;//www.facebook.com/groups/mhfans2011/ hope i done it right im thick
@anita when i go in to facebook i writre the king and queen of parnormal karl and yvette and team support page
@ Tracey Thanks for that, well spooky you could hear clearly what it says. so interesting. @ Derek my husbands friend from work keeps smelling raw meat in differant parts of his living room, and a few weeks ago his mate was sat in his living room when a can moved across the table, could this smell be some thing evil ? Im asking you because you seem to know more about this sort of thing,Plus he doesnt know what to do about it he says there is some thing in his house.
@jason can you provide the link for yvettes facebook page as i cant find any updates on her page since june?
PS. Found Gail’s evp experience – go to 2 minutes in… the “look its a lady” is very clear.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Y8caNSF6v4
Lol Vicki, my cat was exactly the same. Docile and sweet, but get her anywhere near a vet and oh my god !!!
Claire, I often wonder about Gail Porter and the hair loss during and after the Dead Famous series. Didn’t Stuart Torevell lose his hair during Most Haunted in a similar way?
The EVP’s at the Boat House at Thunderbird Lodge are eerie and not very nice (will try and find a youtube link). If my memory serves me well, Gail was in the pitch black boathouse, on her own, calling out for spirits to answer her. An EVP was clearly picked up of two men saying, “who is it?” and another immediately saying, “It’s a lady….” followed immediately by Gail, who didn’t say she’d heard anything at the time, say “I want to go, I want out of here, now, now… I want out” and clearly panicking.
Later on the medium (sorry I have forgotten the guys name), is calling out in the boat house and says (amongst other things), “come on, talk to me…. I want to talk with you…” an evp voice is clearly heard to say in answer, “… are you willing to die…”
Youtube link here to the EVP’s heard : go to 6 mins 20 …
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H9BqoEAn67k&NR=1
More evps at the end of the episode link.
@ Claire: You wouldn’t be able to get near my cat with a eye-patch, not if you didn’t want your face clawed off. It takes the four of us to get her into the carrying case. (o_o)
Our last cat was like that, too, she was the most docile, loving, affectionate cat you could meet… until you got the case out, then Dad had to wear biker gloves to get her in there, then the vet would be in for it when we got her there; once she even sunk her teeth right into the vet’s hand and they put a warning on her record that she was vicious. Then we’d get home, let her out, she’d run away, but would come back about 30 mins later, rubbing against people, purring like a motor and sitting with us while we were watching TV. It was like Dr. Jekyll and Mr Hyde… :-/
I miss her.
@Nikki: I could pay someone to take the cat to the vet’s…
just had a quick peep on facebook that yvette has allready recorded the alan tichmarsh show i dont who he is lol
hi everyone i dont go on facebook much rather go on this site where everyone is friendly not that i’m suggesting no-one is friendly but you just never know halloween soon arriveth were all busting to know
@wow vicki that would be an ART form initself not to mention you would be minted to fart £50’s!!!! if yvette has news im sure she will deliver on alan titchmarsh show roll on 31st
Can’t wait been ghost hunting with Carl Stuart and phil at Wakefield do we keep eye on here hope it’s not long coming great to c u back jan x
lol claire just been on face book karl and yvette are in talks with tv stations who want to air it so fingers crossed so hopefull we might here somthing soon that was october the 6th
Hiya everyone, I love this sight and reading all the differant story,s and comments. I know we are without MH this halloween again but at least we can look forward to seeing Yvette on titchmarch and look forward to seeing MH next year, hopefully. x
Tracey loved that show often wondered if Gails hair loss was connected in a way to the work she done in D\Famous. Think that may be the episode that made me think that. Although you will need to remind me what the evp was?
They got a lot of evidence shame they dont make it any more good mix with Gail asking questions they made a good team and just got better each series.
Re MH i am hoping like you that Yvette will clear a lot up when interviewed but they are real teases so wont hold my breath.
But i do not want MH+MHL to be online i think itv 4 could fit it in dump some of the retro tv for a bit.
I think if Jason does not get some type of comformation soon he will bust a blood vessel eh Jay lol
See you all later x
Hello again everyone,
Loving that EVP, Paul. The voice is definitely saying “get up”. EVP fascinates me and you should be rightly proud of the one you captured, it is very clear.
Has anyone ever watched Dead Famous? The EVP that the medium and gail porter recorded at Thunderbird Lodge is so scary.
Jason, I’m sure Karl and Yvette will let us know something as soon as they can. Looking forward to Yvette’s appearance on the Alan Titchmarch Show on 31st October. She may have some good news (hopes).
:/
@jason why? i mean how can they tell u anything they don’t know them selfs…..
and what they havent allready told us…
i just wish karl and yvette kept us more informed one way or another instead then every 6 months lol
@vicki, happy you like the e.v.p i caught, I felt like an angler who caught a prize fish lol,
I have’nt done much e.v.p work since because it’s very boring listening to dead space or white noise as some call it because you have to listen intently to every second and that can be between 6-8 hours depending on how much you sleep,
When i caught that e.v.p it is only 2 seconds long and easily missed if not listening to all the recording and as dennis said people make the mistake of looking for the sound waves when listening to e.v.p and when you do that you lose and miss alot of the evidence and he is right because when i caught the spirit voice there was no soundwave which is strange but proves its paranormal.
@Claire, I found alittle back ground about where i live various people lived here and there se to be a monestary here on the land where our flats are build, cannot place the young woman spirit who spoke to me but then human history here obviously goes well back.
you ask where does the feeling come from when we don’t like the feel of a place, i guess we are all alittle sensitive but some people are more sensitive.
My friend barry and his mrs carole visited me and we were all sat quiet watching tv when carole jumped and said oh something just touched my hair by my hair, I laughed and said thats right thats what happens most here being touched around the ear-hair area.
I texted barry the next day and asked him how carole was and carole used barry’s phone to reply as she not got one and said “miss you both but after being touched at yours like that i am too afraid to visit” haha i understand it don’t scare me tho gotten use to it besides spirits sense fear and can use it against also feed off the energy of fear.
What concerns me is when you go out on a ghost hunt or investigation a spirit can follow you home but i guess that is the risk and chance you take.
Thanks claire for posting my e.v.p here i hope others take the time to listen to it.
@ Nikki hi thank you x
Agree with your views on EVPs on Ghost Adventures they give you real time audio on theres which is good.
You ever tried evps i have a small dictaphone (think thats what they call it nevermind spell it lol) . Must admit have been tempted but i am too much of a coward just me n me Cat (well pets oh that sounds sad eh lol) so dont think i will bother.
If it picked something up i would mess myself, sorry but i would! especially if it said “i hate you” or something else as charming. x
Hi Everyone
Re MH and EVPS think they rely on there personal mics for that which would maybe work better if there was less sceaming (CATH) But do feel they could do a small evp piece on each show.
I remember when radio 1 went with them and the evil laughing evp was picked up by Yvettes mic only and it left Ciaran scatching his head.!
@Paul Love the back ground to your EVP going to bed and the voice says “Get up” Did you ask your neighbours about previous tenants or anything?
Agree about places having there own vibe and glad you can live happily with your houseguest.
The imagination can take over if you dont like the feel of a place eh but where does that feeling come from ok if it smells and looks bad with crumbling walls and stuff but how do you explain pretty places that just feel wrong fascinating.
“I had a nightmare one night i was choking while pulling a massive tumour up my throat and out of my mouth, it was horrible.
On another occassion i was semi conscious sleep state and a young woman tell me she was a miss (Unmarried) in her 20’s and died of a throat tumour in her throat.”
I dont know how to explain that weird i mean how do you make sense of that.
We are all backseat Ghost Hunters here but i’m in Vickis state
“I’d love to go on ghost hunts, but until such time as I develop the ability to fart £50s, I’m afraid it’ll have to take a back seat.”
I want proof there must be something so hurry up science as i’m well past buying Comediums words for it.
@ Vicki hi thanks he is getting there animals just amaze me. I dont want to talk too soon, he looks like he has been battered but well he is a brave little puss. I’m thinking an eye patch for Christmas pirates are all the rage!
@ Jason i hear you, USA is getting GH live again and looks like we are getting sod all AGAIN i say again but at least they tried to give us something last year. Never mind thursday night Bio is quite good what else can i say mate i know it sucks x
looks like there be no parnormal live on tv this year for halloween havent seen anything advertise on tv as yet
“I think one day science will prove not only the existence of the human spirit but enable us to talk with whoever whenever!”
Here’s hoping, Paul. It was fascinating to read about your experiences and I love your message on the tape recorder, it made me laugh. XD
I’d love to go on ghost hunts, but until such time as I develop the ability to fart £50s, I’m afraid it’ll have to take a back seat. 🙁
It was nice to read your views on things, Paul and Tracey. 🙂
I’m glad your cat is better, Claire. (^_^)
@Nikki, Hi I have always been facinated with the paranormal although i am not obsessed with it i live my life but i like looking for evidenceof existence after death.
My friends tell me i should have my home investigated and that i could make money out of it but i laugh and tell them that peace of mind and a happy home is worth more than money and as daft as it may sound i explain to the spirit if they respect my space i will respect them and not let anyone investigate them.
I had a nightmare one night i was choking while pulling a massive tumour up my throat and out of my mouth, it was horrible.
On another occassion i was semi conscious sleep state and a young woman tell me she was a miss (Unmarried) in her 20’s and died of a throat tumour in her throat.
I’ve never had anything or experience like that before and it’s strange because the e.v.p i caught sounded just like a young woman.
I am 46 and when i was a child no-one talked about ghosts or spirits and if you did people regarded you as weird but today its more common and widely accepted.
I think one day science will prove not only the existence of the human spirit but enable us to talk with whoever whenever!
hi paul that was fascinating sounds as if you’ve had some experiences espec with the evp so you need a lot of pennies then for equipment im not surprised though very technical stuff! sometimes you can walk into a place and you just know dont you when u get a shudder it’s happened to me on a few ocassions like de ja vu.
i hope it’s not the end it does frighten me as i have a hubby and two children and wouldnt want to leave them bt it’s better nt to dwell on it really but always been fascinated about afterlife i think quite a few of us would love to go on hunts and vigils.
@Claire, Hi the equipment i use is a voice recorder, various e.m.f meters, infrared beam alarms, torch etc, i would like to own and use a thermal infrared camera but they are £1500+ sadly too expensive for me,
Even tho my flat is haunted it is not negative i lived in a place before and there was always a negative depressive feeling and no matter how you decorated the place with warm calming colours nothing could take away the dreadful negative feeling, however where i live now even though i have had some strange activity.
The activity i have experienced ranges from banging in the loft, knocks, and sounds that sounds like a strong ruler being snapped, also i was sat watching tv with the mrs when my laptop suddenly powered up and before it even booted into windows 7 the computer powered off, I am an experienced computer user and builder and i know computers don’t boot up and shut down like that.
Having suspected my place to be haunted i used a voice recorder and said (just as i was going to bed) on voice recorder if there is anyone here with me please leave me a message.
At a later date i listened to the recording i made and discovered an e.v.p so i emailed the e.v.p to simplyghost in america and asked for an opinion.
I got a reply from a man called dennis who said he would look at it and get back to me but after 2 weeks of no contact from dennis i emailed him again.
Dennis finally got back to me and he said sorry paul i been busy on 3 investigations and i have a young 18yr old girl who has been playing with a ouija board and she is possessed, she was being scratched having her hair pulled, seeing horific images etc but he said i can’t help her because she don’t believe in god and he is the only person who can help her.
Dennis told me my e.v.p was a class A e.v.p and to qualify for class A it means the e.v.p is clearly heard without any editing etc.
My home even though myself and other family members have been touched feels warm calm no negative feeling at all and i trust my instincts as they never have let me down before.
I believe death is not the end but just the next level of our existence.
i suppose iff there no most haunted and no paranormal group doing a live on tv i guess it will be day and night off horror flims (sighs)
I found myself switching off literally and fast forwarding to the reveal
quite eerie i love EVP so much that i put the initials as capitals! gr8 stuff for me voice phenomena can be conclusive or inconclusive on MH you sometimes cud hear the evp if people wern’t screaming but on ghosthunters{which im totally not keen on now after there slagging match with Yvette} you couldnt hear a thing for the stupid background music constantly playing that’s wot i didnt like abt that show, until the reveal, you didnt hear or see anything.
hi claire glad to hear puss ok and thanx for giving utube add very intersesting i thought it said get out to start off with but i think it’s get up!
Forgot to say Paul rather u than me have u done any research as to who might be speaking?
get up or out would be too much 4 me.
Thank Jason me to xx
Right i’m outa here things to do x
Here is Pauls EVP
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cknUA-Duy9g
J dont even think we are getting PIL this year
hi claire im glad your cat his ok xxx
Hi Jason pennies are always welcome lol
I am a lot happier as my cat is back from his OP and stay at the Vet. Looks like he has been in the ring with Tyson but so glad he is home. Apart from that glad you decided to stay toox
@ Ryan L thanks 4 the update but 4 me i really dont like the sound of that. MH + MHL are tv cant get my head round having to watch online.
I mean this to me sounds like tv channels are not interested. Why not what are MH terms that a channel dont want them.
This would be a bad move there must be 1 channel. I want MH back but not at the expense of the tv format.
@ Paul hi you are in the right place paranormal tv junkies aplenty here. Good ideas i always thought that MH should have done more EVP work. Also like the FRANX BOX? think thats what its called. In Ghost Adventures they used a piece of kit that used emf frequency (i think) and made words from them answered there questions quite interesting.
Tell us more about your kit and experiences with it sounds good. I am going to look 4 you evp on utube.
Think care should be taken with evps as i remember an episode of P\State when an old dear got hooked doing that and was pretty close to inviting something nasty home. We are all fascinated here so good to hear from you.
@Tracey hi or should i say lurkio lol so you will know us quite well.
I agree at least it is an update but not the update i was looking for. I hoped the next update would be news on medium\channel\ start date or a Live.
Not asking for much eh lol but for me MH is a tv programme 1st and last.
Re bad vibes to medium in series 14 you will see a lot of that shame too as it is a good season unbelievable it was there last.
Medium bad feelings helped put the nail in the old coffin. Although P Matthews is ok….. they have had much better enjoy the rest.
Glad to hear your voice.
so whats going to be on this halloween iff theres no most haunted again what rubbish will be on sky living again if anything more pil lol
Hello from a long time lurker and reader of your posts. So glad there is so much support for Most Haunted. “In one form or another” sounds like it could be online, more MH theatre tours maybe…. Either way at least there is an update on Yvette and Karl’s FB page.
Have just bought the latest series (14) as I can’t get Living and am loving it. Some of the locations have been great. IMO Yvette and Ciaran clearly don’t like the Medium, Patrick Matthews though (in the one episode he appears in – The Woods) .
Anyway, Im adding my voice – bring back Most Haunted and sooooooon !!
I love most haunted and i have evey episode from searies 1 to searies 14 (just released) plus i have the live shows to date.
I also like other gost hunting programmes like ghost hunters, ghost labs, ghost adventures, paranormal state,
I live in an haunted flat and me and my partner and my children have been touched and i also caught an E.V.P which sounds like a young woman and it can be heard on my youtube so if you wanna hear it just enter my username lovewizard44 in the youtube search bar.
I am not psychic but i believe i am a sensitive because of certain experiences in my life and i believe death is not the beginning but just the next level of our existence!
I know alot of people who watch most haunted and i know i am not alone when i say we would like cath to stop screaming too much, I like all the team but my favourite is stuart, stuart makes me laugh and stuart gets attacked or scratched alot.
I hope most haunted do more E.V.P work as it seems E.V.P is alot more common than ghost sightings (apparittions) maybe it takes a ghost less energy to speak than to manifest?
I wish i could be a member of most haunted i have most of the equipment and been on ghost hunts myself including berry pomeroy castle which is famous for being very haunted, while at pomeroy castle my K2 E.M.F meter was going crazy almost constantly lit to maximum levels the place is very active.
good luck to the team and PLEASEEE consider doing more E.V.P work!
Regards
Paul.
what can i say about rumours lol untill they confirm it karl and yvette i want listen to any (rumours) at all
The bit im confused at is one form or another …
Heard a rumor if they can’t find a T.V station
they might just do it online….
