Bill Bixby did a series with the same title. Nope, not "The Hulk", or even "My Favorith Martian".

I'm betting it isn't The Courtship of Eddie's Father;D
So it must be The Magician (1926)

This is something a bit different, not actually a movie. Hopefully, it's OK:

Yes; it was British TV. But not a movie.

This was a Halloween special, purported to be an actual paranormal investigation. The hoax led to massive complaints to the BBC. It has never been repeated in the UK.
It's a fun watch, even if they don't quite stick the landing.

Here's another screencap:



And here's an image of the hosts (altered to remove the title):

OK. It looks as though this one isn't as wel known as I'd thought. It's Ghostwatch (1992), a Halloween special purported to be an investigation into a haunted suburban house. Viewers thought it was real. It has a low budget precursor to Light Night with the Devil feel.



This short video summarizes the show and its impact: The Story of Ghostwatch


So, here's a more traditional one:
