Paranormal Investigation/Ghost Hunting Gear: How to Use It Right and Avoid False Alarms

Image
As previously discussed, the instrumentalist-engineer approach is one way to find the truth about the paranormal. Instruments can help reveal the unseen, providing data to support paranormal research.  However, commonly used tools are not 100% reliable. This guide shows how these tools are used, what can cause “false positives,” and practical tips to keep your investigations accurate and credible.  It’s designed to help you avoid being misled and to strengthen your position against skeptics and debunkers . I will continuously update this chart whenever I find new information or equipment. Paranormal Equipment Guide (currently 33  items) Equipment How It's Used False Positives Tips Air Quality Monitoring Equipment Detects changes in air composition (CO₂, particulates, humidity, and other gases like CO, NO₂, O₃) that may coincide with reported paranormal activity. Can help rule out envi...

Ghost Hunting vs Paranormal Investigation

Image
Q: Is Ghost Hunting the same as Paranormal Investigation? Ghost Hunting usually refers to: A recreational or semi-professional activity Focused only on  finding or documenting ghosts or hauntings Often reliant on TV-inspired methods like using EMF detectors, EVP recorders, spirit boxes, infrared cams, etc. More focused on experiential evidence (what you hear, feel, or record) Commonly conducted by hobbyists or enthusiasts May lack a deep investigation framework or skepticism. It  technically  fits under the umbrella of "paranormal investigation"—which simply means  looking into unexplained or anomalous phenomena. However, many ghost hunts: Don't test alternate hypotheses Lack research design Don’t always document rigorously So while ghost hunting  is  a form of paranormal investigation  in spirit  (pun intended 😏), it’s often a  very narrow and informal version  of it. Paranormal Investigation , especially a...

📌 What the Paranormal Is and What It Is Not

Image
What do we really mean when we say something is ‘paranormal’? Misunderstandings are common, and they affect how people talk about, research, and respond to the unexplained. Many people misunderstand what  “paranormal”  truly means. They assume it's anything weird, unscientific, or scary. But to think more clearly and discuss more meaningfully, we must separate the paranormal from things it is often confused with. Here’s a breakdown of the most common mix-ups and how to tell them apart. 1. Paranormal vs. Preternatural vs. Supernatural Paranormal Preternatural Supernatural Beyond current scientific explanation, but possibly explainable someday Rare, uncanny, or seemingly unnatural events that don't break natural law; also, something divine that occurs in nature Outside the laws of nature; divine, godly, or metaphysical Some examples: ESP, UFOs, apparitions, time s...

Mga bagay na dapat din malaman: Excerpt from Multo, Thought Forms, Atbp. book by Mr. Ruel Ruiz

Image
Multo, Thought Forms, Atbp. First Philippine Paranormal Investigation Handbook Para sa mga Baguhan o Dalubhasa by Ruel Ruiz Mga bagay na dapat din malaman Belief at Expectation. Maaaring makulayan ang resulta ng imbestigasyon depende sa paniniwala o expectation ng PSI (Paranormal Scene Investigator). Kaya nga naniniwala ako na ang isang PSI ay dapat “totoong” skeptic—kaysa naniniwala o hindi naniniwala. Mainam na talakayin ang kaso nang may mga theories at background knowledge. Ang matinding paniniwala o hindi paniniwala sa isang bagay ay nagdudulot ng misinterpretation ng mga events dahil sa mga set of beliefs na ito ng PSI. Hindi rin naman mainam na maging sarado at maghanap ng talagang ikaka-disprove ng isang kaso, dahil kahit na ano pang evidence na ito nga ay paranormal ang dahilan ay hindi pa rin maniniwala. Simple Misperceptions Madalas na nire-report sa akin ay ang feeling na may humahawak o humahaplos sa buhok nila. Kahit na mga PSI team ay may ganito rin experie...

UFO Checklist: Is It a UFO or Not?

Image
Updated: October 12, 2025 The checklist below is from r/UFOs . The original post is deleted now, but I saved it some years ago. 👇 Think you’ve seen a UFO? Please read through this checklist first and look for other explanations. Even some of the most dedicated UFO researchers have never seen one in person. 🎈 Balloon Look for: Object visible in daylight Seems to drift, move slowly, or hover May appear to change shape May appear to be blinking or flashing No rapid acceleration without cause (such as wind) Silent Probable explanation: Mylar balloons in particular are extremely reflective and often oddly shaped. They often rotate in the air, so they look as if they are “shifting shape.” Another common characteristic is the object growing dim and then bright as it rotates and reflects the light. 🚁 Drone Look for: Object moves erratically, but appears to “swing” through a direction change Object may hover Flashing or steady lights of various colors C...
