Second to none, the theory behind inexplicable battery drains during an investigation, is reported to be that of a spirit or entity absorbing the power from batteries, to accumulate enough energy for it to manifest. Nearly everywhere I go, this seems to be the most widely held theory behind battery drains. While I’m not saying this is wrong, I personally have a different theory regarding battery drains. When I watch videos of investigations where inexplicable ...

Reviewing video evidence can be a real strain on your eyes. Given that most of the video a paranormal investigator reviews is monochrome (black/white, black/green), some evidence could be missed if the reviewer isn’t very careful. Let’s discuss ‘White-Hot’ and ‘Black-Hot’. Some cameras give the operator the option of switching between ‘White-Hot’ and ‘Black-Hot’ Infrared video. Simply put, this means that if your camera is switched to ‘White-Hot’, warmer objects will appear whiter than the ...

When purchasing an Audio Recorder for EVP work, be mindful of the capabilities and restrictions of the specific recorder you are looking at. A recorder capable of recording for hundreds of hours most likely uses a Codec which compresses the recording so much that background noises (such as EVPs) will be lost in the compression. Some recorders actually filter out the background noises, while others will record everything. It’s important that you do your ...

Some Thoughts on EVP Electronic Voice Phenomena, commonly called EVP, is the capture of words and sometimes short sentences on audio recording equipment. An example of this phenomenon is when two individuals are sitting alone in a building reputed to have paranormal activity. Their discussion is recorded, and when the tape is played back later, a third voice appears on the tape. Often vague and barely discernible, generally audible only by listening closely to the ...

One of the more unique phenomena during our investigation of the Dead Haven building (see our Investigations Page for more on this project) was the reactions of so many of the cast and crew members who worked there over the years. During questioning, numerous individuals expressed feelings of extreme sadness, chills, and the creepy sensation of being watched. While a sense of anxiety strong enough to send chills up and down one’s spine or acrossthe ...

Like most paranormal investigators, I was thrilled with my first orb. Here, I felt, was irrefutable proof that “something” was out there. My opinions have changed quite a bit over the years, and what I once considered irrefutable, I now view with a good deal of skepticism. In video experiments, The PI-Team has been able to re-create many types of orbs, including sparkling orbs, blinking orbs, orbs with unusual movements, etc. It’s reached a point where, ...

When scientists debunk ghosts, their statement is usually: “There is no scientific proof of the existence of ghosts.” But there is scientific proof. Science even has theories that explain how something must be happening beyond what we know and can see. Albert Einstein (1879-1955), Time Magazine’s Man of the Century and one of the greatest minds the world has known, taught us that energy cannot be created or destroyed. It can only be changed from one ...
