Question:
that if you owned a haunted location, experienced something paranormal, or were able to demonstrate a psychic ability like ESP that you would not waste your time with allowing them to investigate or set up experiments?
What organizations would you go to or suggest that others go to to be examined fairly or in a scientific manner?
Question:
I read a lot and it seems most evidence is EMF readings, EVP’s photos etc. Nothing wrong with those just wondering how often ghost actually appears.
Question:
I’m wanting to join a paranormal investigators team in Huntington WV. i have never been part of one and i’m very interested in the paranormal. and do any of you know of any haunted locations in Huntington WV? i hear marshall university & keith alby theater are.
Question:
I need to know if you use mediums/psychics in your research? If you do, why? I have been doing this since 1999 and can see no reason for involving this in an actual investigation. What would they bring to the table so to speak that coud ever be evaluated by an objective researcher? I call myself a skeptical believer simply because I have no absolute proof of anything other than my few pics I elected to keep. None of which I label as a ghost or spirit. I call them simply……interesting pics. Out of thousands of pics there are maybe 20 and of those two are orbs, only to show contrast in light sources and anomalies. I have never kept an EVP simply because none were clear and audible. And I have only kept about 5 minutes of video where I caught something I am still trying to figure out. That in almost 8 years of searching. So I am much harder on evidence than your normal “ghost hunter”. So if you please will answer my first questions and your experience level, I would like to know.
I have probably taken more then 5000 pics using several methods from ten second intervals, to infra red, to time lapse. I tell my group, if your gonna keep it and use it, you better be able to back it. Rule out the normal before you label it paranormal!!
skeptics, please be respectful of those who do answer this question. you might even learn who some of these people are and why they do it.
there are so many great answers I dont know how I am gonna pick one. And to the skeptics, thanks for being respectful and allowing those believers to answer the question.
Question:
This question comes from watching paranormal investigations on TV. While I don’t believe that these are necessarily indicative of all investigations, they do leave me with a big question. All of these shows are trying to use scientific means to show that there is a haunting or something paranormal occurring. They collect lots of evidence to support the claim that there is something paranormal happening and usually come to the conclusion that something paranormal is going on. While all this makes for good entertainment, I have a question about the methodology of these studies.
Why do the investigators proceed under the assumption that something paranormal is going on instead of trying to explain the evidence the have collected using known phenomena?
Here is an example of what I am asking. They use an audio recorder to record sounds and after some amplification find what seems to be a voice being recorded. They automatically assume that this EVP is evidence of paranormal activity. Why do they not do anything to show that other possible explanations are not valid? Why don’t they use many recorders in the same area? If there is really a voice, shouldn’t it be picked up independent of the recorder (all recorders pick up the same voice)?
I guess my main problem is that instead of accepting or testing more plausible explanations for the phenomena they automatically assume a fairly implausible explanation. Should they not follow the words of the fictional investigator Sherlock Holmes, “Once all other possible explanations have been eliminated, whatever remains, however implausible, must be the truth”?
Question:
I want an honest opinion, Let say you have a home or a place of business that you believed was haunted, would you hire a paranormal investigation team to investigate and perhaps cleanse your location?
Of course assuming that this group is professional.
DYB Investigators took on the challenge and visited one of Australia’s most haunted sites. DYB Investigate with an open, though skeptical approach. Although there was not any audible or visible unexplained activity during the investigation, upon uploading photos and digital audio recording on the day, unexplained phenomenon was detected. This is the original recording. Follow DYB Investigators on Facebook
Question:
i wanna record my own evp’s, i have a simple tape recorder. i think i caught one before but i couldn’t make out what it was saying, is there anything i can do to get more, clearer evp’s?
Question:
Was there any connection to the language and the area you were recording in?
I am asking because I got a german EVP in Heinrich Himmler’s car. This car is in the United States, and I truly doubt that his ghost would be hanging out in it. Just trying to figure out what the heck is going on.
