It's episode 120...and this isn't Casper the fucking friendly ghost you're chasing!
Paranormal Activity 3 (2011) takes us back to the 1980s to find out the fascinating backstory of Katie, Kristi and Toby the pesky poltergeist, all shot in crisp late-noughties HD footage! When the furniture starts flying, there's only one solution...film it all for posterity!
We tackle the usual plot twists and contrivances, ask ourselves if a Witches' Coven is too covenient, and wax lyrical about the creative use of rotating fans.
All of which leads to one question...How would you survive?
Whatever happens, one thing's for sure: if you saw me talking to somebody, it would be Toby.
