“Every
Ghost Tracker wants to find a ghost. But there is lots
of evidence you can collect when you are investigating a haunted
house. Here are a few important examples.”
Feelings, Sensation
Ghost
Trackers have to have an open mind, and be in tune with their own
thoughts and feelings. Often, a strange feeling
or sensation is our first clue that something curious is going
on. Many Trackers record their thoughts and feelings during
an investigation, and them compare notes with other trackers to
see if there are any similarities. Being aware of our thoughts
and feelings is the first step in a great paranormal investigation.
Unusual Electrical Activity
Feeling electricity
in the air? Compass moving erratically? These
may be indicators of unusual or unexplained electrical activity. Such
activity often accompanies paranormal activity. It could
be because ghosts give off energy. Or maybe, they are in
themselves some strange kind of electrical force. The best
thing to do if you sense weird energy is to use your EMF Detector. A
high reading confirms your feelings and indicates that something
strange just might be going on.
Cold spots
It happens all the time. During an investigation,
a Ghost Tracker will feel a sudden chill or cold spot. No one
knows why, although some researchers think it happens when we pass
through a spirit. The best way to confirm that you have encountered
a clod spot, and aren’t just imagining it, is to use an infrared
thermometer, a sensitive tool that can pinpoint sudden temperature
changes.
EVP
Electronic Voice Phenomenon is one of the
most compelling kinds of evidence. These are voices, usually missed by a Ghost
Tracker in the midst of an investigation. The best way to
capture this kind of evidence is to set up a tape recorder at the
beginning and just let it run. Afterwards, carefully listen
to the tape for background voices and other sounds.
Orbs, strange lights and other visual clues
One
of the most common kinds of evidence is orbs – mysterious
balls of coloured light. While Ghost Trackers occasional spot
them out of the corner of their eyes, orb and other common light
phenomenon or best captured with a still or video camera. |
