The show consists of paranormal investigations broadcast live over a period of one or more nights, usually with interactive sections that involve the viewer.

Following a five-year hiatus, Most Haunted Live returned to our screens, this time on UKTV's Really on 31 October 2015.

Most Haunted Live was back on 31 October 2019, Hallowe'en Night, exclusive to the official YouTube channel.

was broadcast on Living on 31 October 2002, from Dudley Castle and was produced jointly by Antix and Hanrahan Media.

[1] Most Haunted Live returned after a five-year hiatus on Saturday 31 October 2015 on the UKTV channel "Really" for a Halloween special.

The one night live event came from an allegedly haunted house at 30 East Drive, Pontefract in West Yorkshire, England.

The house was the scene for a previous investigation by the Most Haunted team for the series which aired a few weeks before this Halloween event.

The team thought the house had a lot of paranormal activity, and it would merit being an ideal location for their first Most Haunted Live in five years.

The live event was hosted by Rylan Clark-Neal and Jamie East who presented from an outside broadcast unit and a small outside studio, with the usual members of the Most Haunted team present too, including Yvette Fielding, Karl Beattie and Stuart Torevell, the only three original members left of the Most Haunted Live team.

The event caused some controversy when it appeared that Karl Beattie was dragged up the stairs of the house by an "invisible" force.

However reviewing back footage of the incident, many viewers and sceptics noted that Karl had what appeared to be a rope or cable around his waist which dragged him up the stairs.

The Most Haunted team deny all claims of fakery or staged events during the Halloween live special.

On Monday 31 October 2016 from 9.00pm-11.00pm, Most Haunted will air an "as live" recorded edition of the show from HMP Shrewsbury on UKTV Play.

It was a place where some unexplained paranormal activities had occurred including a crow bar being thrown and her husband Karl Beattie collapsing on the floor.

The Live show returned on Hallowe'en night 2019 on the Most Haunted Official YouTube Channel, for a 3-hour event from Accrington Police Station and Courts.

Some themes are based on well known historical figures such as Dick Turpin, William Shakespeare, Jack the Ripper and Dracula.

The presenters, Paul Ross and David Bull, historian, Lesley Smith followed by Dr John Callow, and 'demonologist' Fred Batt who resides in Capel, Surrey worked from the hub.
