It is very important for a soldier to go into war with weapons fully loaded. It is important in every field and in any specialization to always have the correct equipment and the accurate tools to do the job properly. Same goes for ghost hunting.
A ghost hunter needs the proper ghost hunting equipment in order to catch ghostly beings, witness paranormal activities as well as catch them on tape. Verifying the presence of paranormal beings is quite hard to do, but with the help of modern technology it is already made possible.
Thermometer – To start the list, the very first tool to have is the cheapest device. A thermometer is a device that measures the temperature inside a room. It is a very well known fact that ghosts leave a cold front. If a room manifests a drop in the temperature, it is possible that there is a presence of a ghost inside the room.
Digital voice recorder – There is a thing called electronic voice phenomenon. This is when a ghost or a supernatural being talks to human beings or expresses themselves in sounds, words, or sound waves. When someone asks a question to the ghost, the ghost makes a response that the ghost hunting equipment can capture after a few seconds of silence.
Digital camera – It is always best to take lots and lots of photos in order to capture several shots of different elements and entities in an area. In a haunted location, ghost hunters will never know what will show up on the screens of their cameras. The human eye sometimes does not see the entities that the lens of the camera captures. It is a good thing that one person if numerous photos are taken each time the group enters a room.
Infrared cameras – this is another type of camera that a ghost hunter must have handy when walking and hunting in the dark. Infrared cameras have the capability to catch entities on tape even when there is no natural light present. It can be placed in a stationary position or it can be held by a cameraman while doing the surveillance of the area. This type of equipment is quite expensive that is why it is best to save up for these types of equipment.
EMF detector – this is one of the best gadgets invented by man. This is also one of the most used devices by ghost hunters because it detects electromagnetic activity in a specific area. In a lot of studies about ghosts and other supernatural beings, they were proven to emit electromagnetic frequency that can surely be detected by this device.
Motion sensors – Ghosts aren’t that smart. This is what motion sensors prove. They tend to move inside a room and the motion detectors pick up these movements. Ghosts can walk through walls and solid objects but if they want to, they can also make some objects move. This device can also detect unusual movement of objects.
Hunting ghosts and other supernatural beings is no joke, it entails having the proper ghost hunting equipment, device and sometimes even the proper attire to be able to witness a supernatural phenomenon. Like any job, it is important to come to work prepared. Going inside a haunted area with nothing in hand is like going to war with an empty gun, it is useless. Being prepared and being able to prove the existence of ghosts is the main priority of ghost hunters.
