Bio of zak bagan

No, most of it has been pretty well defended by people who actually knew them well. They were no more con artists than anyone else doing that job in the same time frame. They didn't charge for investigations and their clients always got a cut of any book revenue, albeit it wasn't enough for some of them apparently.
The woman who accused Ed waited until he was dead and a lot of her complaints were against Lorraine. One of the assistants they had at the time debunked it, basically said she was inappropriately crushed on Ed and was not nice to Lorraine because of it and she was asked to leave. They did let her stay with them, mostly to watch the house while they were not there, but she was like 16, 17 years old, not a kid at the time. She also said he beat on Lorraine which Lorraine vehemently denied and so did several people who lived there and worked with them and also their daughter.
She waited for years and said nothing about any of this, timed her accusation to occur right about the time that Lorraine signed on the dot to let their case files be made into movies. She was either paid off or scared off with the threat of a libel suit before the first film came out. Nobody knows for sure. Before that the Warrens really were not making as much as you'd think and Ed was very ill for years, heart issues. He was in no condition to be messing around with a teen mistress for most of that time and Lorraine would have never tolerated that let alone felicitated it.
I'm not saying the Warrens were perfect. Like a lot of the paranormal researchers at the time they liked to make their cases sound scarier than it was. They stretched the truth a bit but no more so than Harry Price or Stephen Kaplan. Actually Kaplan was way worse.
Same thing happens today. Can't get that coveted reality show if nobody thinks what you are doing is interesting. Lectures, books, and appearances at Cons and that they get paid for. So they have a vested interest in making things sound exciting, and there are some shady players in the field definitely. Look at what happend with Paranormal State and Ryan Buel. Zak Bagans, well he's a total opportunist now isn't he?
Same stuff, different era...
I think the Warrens weren't nearly as bad as some of the people I see now days actually...
Edit: thank you unknown redditor!

So clearly we already know Sam is a terrible person but all the stuff I’m going to say has proof to back my “claims” linked for anyone who trys getting this removed for “speculation”
Sam clearly treated Kat terrible as displayed and his new girlfriend Kate has a lot of controversy around here but I’m not on this subreddit to talk about that I’m here to break the news that Sam and Colby BOTH fake all their videos, we already knew they supported Zak and his abuse towards staff which will be for the Ghost Adventures subreddit (if your interested in that and the evidence backing the claim I’ll post that probably after this) but did you know they support Seth Borden’s Verbal & Mental abuse?
You heard me right as far as I’m aware SnC are still friends w/ Seth after MULTIPLE women came out against him including his girlfriend KC (who is the worlds sweetest person) if the Zak Bagan’s stuff wasn’t enough for you this further more proves WHY I will no longer support Sam and Colby and will be selling (or burning) their merch along with Seth’s, my evidence is below.

In my opinion we should ALL be talking about this and doing outreach to the guys in charge of this stuff to get them aware about floxing so we can be treated for it in the future, a cure might be on the way
