If You Like ‘Late Night With the Devil,’ Watch This Terrifying TV Special

The Big Picture Halloween night is the prime time for the veil between the living and the dead to blur, but it’s also a primetime slot for the supernatural to invade a talk show. In Late Night with the Devil, designed to resemble a “lost” TV special from the 1970s, David Dastmalchian brings on a guest who may be demonically possessed. It makes for a great double feature with BBC1’s Ghostwatch, a controversial TV special that terrified the UK.

Ghostwatch may feel familiar to fans of the many popular ghost-hunting reality shows that exist nowadays, but the scares will genuinely sneak up on you the longer the special goes on. This is a similar tactic that Late Night with the Devil uses in what is described as an unedited final episode of Night Owls with Jack Delroy that aired on Halloween night in 1977. However, one of the biggest differences between Ghostwatch and Late Night with the Devil is the host at the center of everything.

Pipes and Mr. Wriggles Are Throwback Supernatural Monsters Both Ghostwatch and Late Night With the Devil rely on their hosts to provide the audiences with a glimpse into the supernatural. In Ghostwatch, Dr. Pascoe firmly believes the Early family is encountering a ghost, which the youngest daughter has named Pipes, after the banging noises it makes.

Both 'Ghostwatch' and 'Late Night With the Devil' Try To Trick the Audience Ghostwatch and Late Night with the Devil go out of their way to make the viewers question what exactly is real, and what is a hoax. Actress Gillian Bevan is one of the few cast members of Ghostwatch not playing a fictional version of themselves. She plays Dr. Pascoe, a psychologist focusing on the paranormal; Bevan portrays her as a believer, who offers her feedback, usually to be met with pushback.
