Yes, it can be. But it’s also fun. Sometimes it’s sitting in a dark abandoned building for hours seemingly talking to yourself trying to elicit some reaction for many hours. Other times your scrambling to get a recording device to capture something incredible. After years of paranormal investigations you get used to the typical environment and the fear fades away.

Then it’s a situation where people scare you more than ghosts because there’s still no evidence to support a ghost killing a person yet people are completely capable of murder.

It can be. But it’s doesn’t have to be. If you want all the high-end tech to investigate with, yes it gets pretty expensive. But one of the best tools you can ever have with investigations is yourself. You may not know it but you are an amazing ghost detector all on your own. Ever walk into a room and feel very differently from the room you were previously in and wonder what the deal is? That’s your own intuition and senses saying ‘hey there’s something different here’. Maybe there’s a spirit hanging out in that room with you.

To get started with investigating, sign up for an investigation or if you know someone, like family that may live in a home that’s suspected haunted, get permission first and see if they would be okay with you doing a little investigation to figure out who’s living with them.

There are moments where the activity is quiet and you’re sitting there a while not getting anything, in many cases that’s when the investigators try to joke around and just be chill because they’re hoping that when the ghosts see that they are having a good time laughing and joking, they might be interested in joining the fun.

Consider this, the ghost was once a human, was once alive. People are naturally social creatures, because of this seeing people in the room joking around, laughing and having a good time, as a person you’d be interested in what all the fun is about so naturally spirits are curious too and want to join the fun as well. So yes, there are moments where nothing is happening but it’s likely not boring either because that’s when the investigators start joking and having a blast.
