alright if its based on true events its not all true, true events means its similar but not the same thing. second if the website for the actual movie is saying the director pretty much made it up i would go by that. and 3rd i think in 2006 this story would have been alllll over national news and nothing for back in 2006 says anything about it.

go to this link, it's just a movie, the people were actors, and it's not a true story. It was made by spielburg. oh yeah, and the whole fire thing, it's called controlled pyro technics and there could be a remote controll machine with a magnet moving the ouji board piece and stuff.

well people who say its not a true story never had the experience seeing or feeling their presence on the other hand there is such things as ghosts and demons and yes they can hurt you, "paranormal activity" probably is based on a true story but i don't got the evidence to prove that but their is such things called evil spirits like demons and ghost and if you don't believe in them than well they will make you believe in them. i seen them and i know what they can do this is no bull THEY CAN HURT YOU OR KILL YOU and if you disagree i say your in denial!

There is no such ting as Demon, ghost, and whatever you could tink of. The only thing live on this earth is Human who is sometime scarier, unpredictable, Crazier.... But humans are the most powerful on the earth after GOD.

Lol HELLO those people were actors. Who cares if it was based on a true story, if it happened then where is the actual footage? Why has no one seen it? If someone had seen it it would've been leaked to the media, people have been studying it for years and been trying to catch something.



Plus maybe stuff like this does actually happen in real life, who really knows


Guest12645108

I think it could happen to someone. And it might be ture, there are many people that are missing or never been found some dead and dont know how. There are a number of unexplained sh!t that no one can tell me that paranormal sh!t dont live around us. People need to get there sh!t together.

i thought this was one of the worst movies i've ever seen. and if anyone thinks that this is based on a true story or had some kind of experience then maybe you should go seek therapy. i'm not saying anything is wrong with you. if you believe in it fine. i do believe that some kind of paranormal activity could happen on some kind of level but this movie took it to the extreme it made me say bullshit in almost every scene and i almost walked out. there were a few things i liked was the ending which i still think was bullshit but it was at least interesting for a second. and the girl had a nice rack which keep me from falling asleep. and finally it had no credits. i liked that cause that fucking stupid ass movie didn't deserve any credits.

Paranormal activity is prob a collection of a few ghost lore events and acual events but on demons possesing you there have been documented exorcisims where the deamons have killed the host (The exorcisim of emily rose) where you can find that the only fictonal part of the story was how many priests did the exorcisum and the trial but there are aculy post mordum pics and pics after death also the acual names of the real deamons that were in her. The worse thing is for people to not know this because it may temp you to temp something you shouldn't and the real storys don't always end so nicly.

ok Guest12457132 you just proved me right MORON and i didnt say there wasnt demons you dumbass ... i said it wasnt a true story so those events didnt exactly happen it was "similar" events which means changed and made up. I said they were morons for saying it was a true story which its clearly not. Think before you speak douche bag. wow your a straight idiot!

mmmk y'guys. First of all, the guy who keeps calling people morons... your a dick and i hope you get infested by a demon. that would make me smile. Second, the movie itself is not real, just a really cool story. There are claims and documentation of demon activity, though i have never heard of one actually killing another person. The demon can however, drive it's target completely mad and even induce suicide. most people don't ever have to worry about it. More people get killed by vending machines than sharks and mor people get killed by sharks than demons, so don't go getting all goofey on me, alright?

the movie itself was fiction..but i think it could happen..there is a lot of things only certain people experience,which cant be seen or touched but i am not going to change my life over it.



so Guest12125400



if you want to believe in the possibility of this,horror movie,look at all the other horror movies..they have the same message.demons,the devil..evil if you will, can and will use power on humans...and god sits back and let you deal with it...even the bible says that in all of those chapters..well not the song of solomon...crap happens and its up to man to deal with it



so before you "get to know God on a more familiar bases because personally I think he would be the only one that could truely intervene. "..please notice,the only intervention he will do is tell you to deal with it..so save yourself a future therapy bill for thinking god hates you, by not putting yourself in a codependent relationship with someone or something who could care less..remember he works in mysterious way..and if its your time to be possessed..its "gods will"

yes it was based on true events but all from different cases and imo i dont believe in demons or "evil" entities, yes energy imprints also know as a ghost can be negitive but it is just an imprint of energy on repeat and cannot comunicate, spirit on the other hand can comunicate but i see no reason for it to be evil in my teachings and studying spirit is love and has no reason to be negitive. I think people jump to conclusions with these things thinking their paranormal or "possesion" because of hollywood when there is logical explaination, energy is a very powerful thing aswell as your mind, so people can project their fear and making it real for themselves but in cases like possesion, people lack to find out what if its a mental illness which in most cases at the end, it is. as i said energy is powerful and so is the mind and you can make things real for yourself by projecting that energy. but the only evil here is man made imo.

i believe in ghosts and spirits but the movie is fiction, the director had expierenced "weird" things happening in his house when he was trying to sleep for example odd noises or things falling off the shelf, so he thought if he could videotape these occurances happening he could make it into a movie, micha and katie are only actors, go to paranormal activites website and read the background on it, it tells you how the director came up with the idea

I checked with alot of people that keep old newspapers and they have an article talking about what happened then I went to the movies and watched it and what I read all happened in the movie except for the ending when she killed her botfriend that was just really weird.

From my findings, it is based on true events, and it's not all true. I saw it just the other night and have been looking things up. The director has had experiences with the paranormal and made the movie on a budget of $15,000. Things like this can happen, but it didn't really happen. At least not to the directors knowledge. Some people answering this question saying you are all idiots and such, they are rude and obviously don't care about other people. Just because you don't believe doesn't mean other people do. I have had experiences as well, living in old haunted places, and owning haunted objects. Things do happen, not to everyone, but to some people that believe. Again, the movie isn't all true, but it is based on experiences. If you haven't seen it, go see it! It's really good. :D

reason why it advises ofthe year 2006 is because the movie was originally released in 2007 & it's not real jus based on a bunch of random events wasn't all that scary either.

No, it isn't based on a true story, although I do believe this sort of thing is possible. If you go to the Paranormal Activity main movie website it tells you in detail where the writer/director got his ideas for making the movie. The website should answer all of your questions. I did enjoy the movie though :)

I think it is based on true events. It is weird they would show the exact dates and the year 2006 why that year if something didn't really happen. Think about it EVEN if it were true they cannot tell us do you know how much shit would go down. We didn't hear of the actor/actress names because i think they are trying to show the true story without anyone being able to ask to many questions.....

I saw the movie last night in Atlanta, GA, and I dont know. It was scary I know for a FACT that sprits/demons do exist. I have had a couple of scary experiences myself, but you have to have faith in GOD, and know that he is in control. I really didnt not want to see the movie, but my friends did so I went. I hope that it was fictional, but it could be possibly true.


Guest12125400

I think the better question is can something like this really happen to a person? I believe the answer is yes. Demons have been spoken of since... well FOREVER. The scariest thing about it is that a Demon can pick anyone of us and what REAL power do we have to stop it? I mean seriously how many of you can say that you would know what to do in that type of situation? All I know is I am definetly going to be taking a closer look at my belief system and get to know God on a more familiar bases because personally I think he would be the only one that could truely intervene.

omfg its not true
freddy kruger movies do not say that they are true does that make jason,micheal meyers, freddy kruger real ? no it doesn't it was played in college universities for the pyschology feilds but college kids liked it so much that they released it nation wide. its defenantly not real but they did a damn good job on making it look real. i didn't sleep for a week


Guest12121029

its true. the movie didnt say anything about being fictional, and the reason why the movie took place in 2006 is because the family of the guy who got killed were upset and didnt want this to be seen.,

i too am a christian, that loves to be scared on occasion. this movie did just that scared the crap out of me. honestly i dont know if this movie is real or not but the things i have experienced in my life with spirits coming and sitting on the edge of my bed at nite and feel the bed move, is a very weird experience. demons are very real and they can do whatever they feel like to you when ever they want too. but if this movie is about a couple that is dealing witha demon spirit then why do they need a director i thought it was all free will?? i thought the police just happen to run across the tapes by accident?? go figure it was still a great movie

well at the end of the movie they said that they never found the girl ??? But they found the boyfriends body, so that alone gives me the idea that it is based on a true story.

I believe that it is based on true events that have occured in the past. Its weird because at the end of the movie it didnt even have a directors name the actors name or anything. It just finished with a weird ending that didnt make any sense so it seems like its true, idk it could be just a written made up story or it actually happend. who knows!!

According to writer/director Oren Peli, he got the idea for the movie after he and his girlfriend bought their first house together. They bought a new suburban tract house, which was still settling. At night, the house could be heard creaking and settling, causing little noises and things to fall off shelves and break. Peli doesn't say whether or not he thought his house was haunted, but that incident is what gave him the idea to write Paranormal Activity.
