The Ghost Hunting Parablog

Everyone has to start somewhere right? When you’re considering taking that leap into the paranormal and starting your first ghost hunt there are a few things to consider. What are you hoping to accomplish?

This may seem like a rather odd question to ask yourself, but it’s important. Are you hoping to document paranormal activity? Do you really want to see a ghost? Are you trying to prove whether a particular location is haunted?

Maybe you’re just a skeptic and you’re either trying to disprove a reported haunting, or finally get that piece of evidence that will help you believe.

Depending on what the answer to these questions are you may have to prepare in different ways. Most people who are starting their first ghost hunt will want to have at least the basic ghost hunting equipment available to them.

The Bare Essentials Can Include

• A Camera
• An Audio Recorder for capturing EVP’s or disembodied voices
• An EMF Detector for documenting changes in the electromagnetic field
• A flashlight
• A pencil and paper for writing down your experiences

Finding A Location

Don’t forget to ask permission when investigating a location for paranormal activity. The last thing you want to worry about it getting in trouble for trespassing. Start small when first starting your ghost hunt. Focus on a friend or relatives house for example.

Graveyards are really not a good place to investigate, simply because the reports of paranormal activity are generally very low at these types of locations.

Once you have a few paranormal investigations under your belt you may want to inquire about local landmarks or public buildings. If you can present yourself as a professional you will have a much better chance of being given permission.

The important thing to know is that we all have to start somewhere. Take a little time and prepare. Be sure to read over our ghost hunting tips article before you go out as well. Most importantly, have a good time!
