Complete drivel, I watched the first 10 minutes of the first episode and that was enough for me. I'm getting worried about Netflix creating this type of arse water programming. Who actually sat down and watched this and thought ... yeah that's great lets commission a whole season of it?

Yes, obviously fake but something about stupid ghost shows is enjoyable to me.

Some episodes of the series may be quite interesting and entertaining, but unfortunately they also sound very much like pipe dreams. Some stories are just not even near to being believable, because you would have definitely heard from it, if it would be real. The series has a quite big potential, but what it really lacks is just prove for these stories. You can't produce a series like that and then let people tell a story that sounds like the perfect script to a horror movie, without anything to prove their story. So, yeah. The series works well as entertainment, but labeling it with "real" is just false advertisement. I will give the series that it does a really good job, in visualizing it's stories.

"Haunted" is hammy, heavy-handed, contrived, and frequently gratuitous. However, though it initially appears to be a garden-variety "true" ghost confessional, it does stand apart for two reasons: 1) Having the narrator address friends and family instead of a faceless producer adds a dimension to the usual formula; and 2) the series explores the meanings of the word "haunted" beyond the paranormal. "Haunted" generally fails to convince the viewer, and as is often the case with the genre, it relies too heavily on horror tropes and exaggerated dramatizations. Arguably, the most effective moments may be in the non-supernatural narratives, but taken in its entirety, most viewers will probably find the show an unsatisfying slog.

Completely fake and I wish they'd NOT say it was a "true story" maybe "based very loosely on something we heard." That being said, it's entertaining made up ghost show for when you don't want to watch Znack Bagels style shows. Or want something over the top.
