Is this all sensational reporting or media hype ?

Very interesting.

Margaret has publicly stated that although they did fake a few phenomena to catch the investigators out, they were not responsible for all the phenomena. She has stated that "It is ridiculous to suggest that either my sister or I could have been responsible for the strange activity that went on in our house." However, despite this there remain differences of interpretation regarding whether the girls faked all the phenomena or not.

But I don't see a citation to this statement.

Good find, Wol! That was a pretty cool little documentary.

I was not sure if the item fit the forum rules, are the guys doing the investigation
qualified?

Why were the flying objects (marbles, lego bricks) not captured on film ?

In the part where the girl is (levitating) it is said that the camera is filming
at 4 frames a second, that seems very slow.

The part about the gas fire being ripped out of the wall seems extreme to the rest of the
activities, in the film i am sure it is partly behind the bed, was the bed moved?

You bet.

The purpose of the Skepticism and Debunking Forum is to explore claims of and evidence for unexplained phenomena...

What time was the girl levitating? I don't really want to watch all 48 minutes...

Nm. about 30min in.
She jumps off her bed and onto the floor. I was hoping for something more, well, interesting.

May be if this report is factual ,you should not want some thing sensational.
