Most Haunted - The Future of Most Haunted

The Future of Most Haunted

On 25 June 2010, Yvette Fielding announced via the Antix Productions website that she is to step down as presenter of the show.

After Yvette's announcement, Living's channel controller Claudia Rosencrantz has said "Most Haunted has given us three incredible years with these live strips. This year it sort of felt it had reached the end of its reign - not that we won't revisit it."

On 10 September 2010, Living announced a new show that is to replace Most Haunted called Paranormal Investigation: Live. This announcement brings to a close the series of Most Haunted on Living.

On 12 August 2011, Karl Beattie announced via his Facebook profile; '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'

On 27 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.

On 12 December 2011, a direct to DVD special entitled Most Haunted Christmas spirits was released featuring a brand new and unseen investigation.

On 4 April 2012, a partnership was signed between Lionsgate and Antix Productions to get Most Haunted back up and running.

On 3 July 2012, the Sky channel Pick TV began to air Most Haunted re-runs. It is believed by fans that this is a testing ground for the launch of Most Haunted in its new format.
