Hello, I’m Cameron. I’m a member of Indiana Ghost Trackers Kokomo Chapter. I am here to talk about some of the basics of ghost hunting.
Ghost hunting is the study of the paranormal. We start by doing a lot of research on the place we are going to investigate. We try to find out how many sightings have been reported, whether most of them are accurate or not, how safe the location is, and the history of the location.
During the investigation, we try to find and capture evidence of the paranormal by looking for energy readings, voices, video, pictures, and more. One thing we look for is EVP (Electronic voice phenomenon). It’s an unheard voice that is captured by recorder that could be a spirit trying to communicate with us. A class A EVP is a very clear voice. A class B is less clear.
Pictures are also a good way to tell if something is weird or not. A common mistake of photo evidence is orbs. The orb in the picture above is NOT a ghost. These photo orbs can be caused by reflections from dust, bugs, moisture, pollen, or other small particles in the air.
An EMF detector is used to try to find the electric current that a spirit supposedly gives off. The gauge on the device will spike when a current is near it. We can determine whether it’s paranormal or not by looking around us to see if there’s an outlet or another electronic device nearby. If there’s not, or we can get the device to spike on command, then we may have something.
