Jenny Nixon Common Sense Media Oct 28
3/5
"True Haunting" is slickly produced, which sets it apart, but that polish may undermine its sense of authenticity. Go to Full Review Joel Keller Decider Oct 14
True Haunting does a good job of mixing the scripted reenactments and real-life interviews about these paranormal encounters, which is something that’s rare in the horror docuseries genre. Go to Full Review Eilis O'Hanlon Irish Independent Oct 9
What is infuriating about shows like this is that they encourage viewers to believe that paranormal phenomena might be real, without putting in any of the hard work necessary to justify that conclusion. Go to Full Review Archi Sengupta LeisureByte.com Oct 7
2.5/5
True Haunting is fine, tense, even, but hardly anything more than that. Go to Full Review Karina Adelgaard Heaven of Horror Oct 7
4/5
...it does have quite a few of James Wan’s signature moves. Either he was fairly hands-on or the directors were inspired. This is far from the first Netflix docudrama in the paranormal horror niche, but it just might be the best so far. Go to Full Review Jonathon Wilson Ready Steady Cut Oct 6
3/5
The concise elevator pitch of Netflix’s True Haunting seems to have been, simply, another in a long list of enduringly popular but typically terrible “true stories” about real-life hauntings, but with a glossy, cinematic sheen over those re-enactments. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Dumitru F @RT49577853 Apr 5 First two episodes are bangers. From the third one onwards it falls apart. l’d say that it starts strong with every story, but it fades away its magic. See more Luz L @Luzluvsmovies Dec 14 If you enjoy documentaries, the paranormal, or realistic horror, I’d certainly recommend watching True Haunting. Its episodes are quite long allowing viewers to really indulge in its content and each episode help develop the story as the show progresses. This show keeps viewers at the edge of their chairs. If you are familiar with the works of ed and Lorraine Warren you may find this show interesting to you. See more Sophie M @RT89591316 Oct 24 I loved this series. It was a great thing to watch just as the nights are drawing in. They were both good, but the second one really appealed to me much more. There was more of a build-up and a real story behind it. The first one felt a little more tenuous, but was still a really great story to watch. It made me jump more than once. I particularly liked the style of documentary-dramatisation hybrid. See more Damian A. @TalkTeaV Oct 22 The series let witnesses, families, and investigators share their sides without rushing through the details. Usually, docuseries offer individual hour long stories that you don't get enough details from. The pacing was a bit slow in some areas, but the eerie atmosphere and a few well-placed jump scares pulled me in from the start. I finished watching, wishing there was another story. See more L. F @RT68678650 Oct 13 Loved it! I don't care if it's fabricated or not, it was a great series to watch in the lead up to Halloween! See more DL W @RT66091538 Oct 13 I was on the edge of my seat. I’m not sure what I believe, but the second story felt more believable to me. They had real footage and brought ghost hunters in into the house. Both stories had multiple witnesses and was intense, but parts felt a little overdone. Still, both were super eerie and kept me hooked. It’s worth watching! See more Read all reviews
