How To Write A Letter To A Ghost?

Im curious how to. Ive never met the spirit im considering writing to, this is a composer. I dont plan to send it anywhere, probably ill just keep it in my desk or in a box. Is there anything specific you have to do when writing to a ghost? Will i recieve any sort of response or signs? Thanks :)

Ghost Box - a bit worried now. My son talked me into getting one.

A little concerned at how spot on my son, 13, was when he didn't know things he was repeating with the headphones on. Things only my immediate family, who are all gone, would know and say - phrases even... advice??? Please?

Estes method

For those that have done the Estes Method, how do you feel afterwards. A coworker and myself just did it, and after we both feel very weak and a bit dizzy, even 30 minutes after. Is this common? Was our first time trying Estes.

Best audio recorder?

Hey guys! I’m looking for the best audio recorder that won’t completely break the bank. I’m willing to spend the money for something that works well and will last me! Any brands or advice is greatly appreciated!

A tad lost

Okay so I’ve been wondering. How do I go about finding places to ghost hunt, in my old home town I only knew of like 3 places. Is there a way to find them or do you just have to guess and hope for the best?

New to ghost hunting - what gear do you actually recommend?

Hey everyone! I’m super new to ghost hunting and want to start exploring it as a hobby. I’ve been watching a ton of videos and reading posts here, but I’m a bit overwhelmed by all the equipment talk🙏🏻

What do you recommend for a complete beginner?
Do I really need expensive EMF meters, SLS cameras, etc. to start, or is there stuff I can use at home?

Specifically looking for:
Beginner-friendly gear that’s actually worth buying
DIY alternatives - I’ve seen people make their own EMF detectors or use apps. Do any of those actually work or is it just for fun?
Anything I should avoid as a newbie

I don’t want to drop 300€ on gear and realize I don’t even like it. So if you started with household items or cheap stuff, I’d love to hear what worked for you.

Thanks in advance🫶🏻!

Something goes around my head and zooms away. Is it the IR reflection?

Thinking this could be from the IR light on the Body cam or some weird reflection off the night vision stationary camera. What do you think? Could it be paranormal or is it completely mundane? 🤷

Question about ghost hunting equipment

I'm trying to research the history of ghost hunting equipment for a project of mine.

I'm specifically looking for information on the "spirit box" or "Ovillus" type equipment that is supposed to pick up on words or sounds by ghosts.

Does anyone have a history or a resource that I could research on my own containing the history of such equipment? I'd love to start from it's beginning of audio capturing of ghosts and work up to where the technology is at now.

Hope that makes sense, I do not have a lot of knowledge in this field. Thanks!

Equipment Rentals? One time Ghost Hunt

TLDR: anywhere in the NY/CT area to rent spirit box or other equipment?

So the family is getting ready to sell the house that we’re all pretty sure is haunted by the prior family. We’ve been cleaning out the attic which is where their belongings have been for the last 70+ years and where most of the action has happened.

I would love to do a very passive “ghost hunt” as we’re there one day. I’m picturing just a spirit box in the background as we pack sort of thing. But open to a more active session if that would make more sense.

This would be a one time, probably will never do again (I’m simply not that brave!) so I’m not looking to invest a ton, but would hate to pass up the opportunity.

Are there any places that “rent out” this type of equipment? Or any cheap but reliable products you think would be a good fit?

But also anything important/ tips/ tricks to keep in mind for a literal first time? (Not looking to accidentally leave any portals open!)

Thanks!!

Something people probably don’t do

So I think that majority of people when it comes to houses people don’t look at the history of the place they just buy it and don’t look at history that what I think personally when it comes to buying houses because I think a majority of houses in USA are haunted.

One of the best professional ghost hunting cameras?

This is my canon XA20. It shoots beautiful high quality looking video in the day, but at night it records pitch black night vision. Does anyone else recommend or use this?

Help me improve my ghost videos

Hello all,

I hope you are having a good day. I make YouTube videos about cemeteries and graveyards during the day time, and at night I record ghost hunting style of videos, mainly EVP sessions where I ask questions and record the audio to play back later in the video.

People seem to enjoy them a bit. But I want to make them better or more watchable or maybe equipment upgrades etc.

Let me know what types of evp type videos you all like or what styles or how I could improve?

I appreciate any input from the ghost hunting community 🤞🏻👍🏻🫡

- The Daily Explorer, Josh

Starting out?

I’m a teenager and I’ve always been into the paranormal. I have had my own experiences before as a kid where I’ve seen and heard things and I think it opened that door for me to want to do this. I live basically in the desert and don’t really have a way of transportation to go anywhere but I would really like to start. I don’t have money for equipment either but any advice? Like how do I find places to do this at, any tips/safety… anything would help… thank you:)
