Rules
of Ghost hunter
-
Research the location. If
you are going ghost hunting after dark, you should check it
out during daylight hours. Make note of any dangers such as
holes, broken glass, loose boards etc.
-
Reschedule your ghost hunt
if it is going to snow, rain, or if it is foggy. Also check the
pollen count. Moisture and pollen can cause anomalies in photos.
-
Never go ghost hunting
alone.
-
Always let someone know
where you will be.
-
Always carry id.
If you feel uncomfortable,
leave!
Get permission before
going onto private property or to be in a cemetery after hours.
Say a
prayer of protection at the beginning of an investigation or
hunt.
If you have a large group
break up into pairs or smaller groups.
Carry walkie talkies or
cell phones. You never know when you might need them.
Announce why you are
there. Tell the ghosts you would like to take their photo.
Don't use drugs or alcohol
before or during an investigation or hunt.
Don't smoke near where you
will be investigating. Make a designated spot for smoking. You
don't want to photograph smoke and think it is an ecto mist or
spirit.
When trying to record evps
never whisper. Talk in a normal voice. You won't scare the
ghosts if you talk. And you don't want to mistake a human
whisper for a spirit.
Always use new tapes in
the recorder.
Have extra batteries and
make sure all equipment is fully charged.
Wear a watch so you can
note times of events.
Wear clothing suited for
the weather and always wear comfortable shoes.
Don't wear jackets with
strings. The strings could get in the way when taking photos and
be mistaken for something paranormal, especially if you are
shooting downward.
Remove camera
straps. Many times straps get in the picture and can be mistaken
for a vortex, ecto, moving orb and ghosts.
Look for things in the way
like spiderwebs, wire, ropes, tree limbs. They can appear on
photos as something paranormal when they are in close range of
the camera lens.
Always clean camera
lenses. Lint, dust specks, smudges and fingerprints can look
like ecto mist, orbs, and other ghostly anomalies.
Be aware of the
temperature when photographing outdoors or in an unheated
building. If it is cold, hold your breath while taking a photo
and for several seconds afterward. Remember, if you can see it
so can the camera.
Always know where your
fingers are when taking photos. A thumb or finger can appear to
be a ghost when caught in front of the lens. It is a big let
down to find out it's not paranormal after all.
Be objective of your
findings. Rule out any natural causes that may have caused
anomalies such as insects, lights in the distance, spider webs,
reflections.
Thank any ghosts that may
have posed for your photos.
Say a closing prayer of
protection according to your religious beliefs. We usually say
something like "In the name of God we command you stay here.
Do not follow us"
The most important tip of
all, always respect the dead.
