So we have been going ghost hunting, any advice?

So...my cousin and I have been ghost hunting, we've gone twice. And both times we have caught soemthing, audio and photo. I was wondering if anybody had any suggestions about how to make contact. We have a voice recorder and a camera, or any tools that might seem handy! Thanks guys!! So we have been going ghost hunting, any advice?
My best advice that I can give you is for you to ghost hunt during the day, not night. Daytime is when Ghosts are most active. .So we have been going ghost hunting, any advice?
I am with Nesse! The best EVP I have gotten and some of the best photos have been during the day. Also the ghosts are far more friendly during the day than at night. I have an EVP that scared me pretty good which we got at about 9pm. I researched the area we got it from and found out a man committed suicide in his car in that area.


All you need is a voice recorder (is it a digital recorder? Those are the best) and a camera. Digital cameras get you your pictures right away, but some of the best pictures I have were taken with a disposable camera or a cannon 35mm.


You might try using a simple compass. Supposedly it will spin when a ghost is around. I have had the needle move before, but never spin. Also try setting a ball on the ground and put tape around it to mark where it it. Ask any spirits in the area to move the ball. This does work. I have used it in houses I have investigated. Good luck!
The best tool you can bring along is a healthy dose of skepticism. Most things attributed to paranormal experiences can be explained by very normal, every-day things. People tend to find whatever it is they're looking for, so if you go hoping to find a ghost you're likely going to attribute ghostly qualities to things otherwise explained away through mundane means.
Old places with lots of history that have undertaken recent disturbances in the protery or remodeling of the house are awesome places to make contact and bring back excellent footage and audio. Reason being ghosts often attach themselves to their house/land they once lived and are content with the state they left it in. When new owners come and modernize or disturb anything, the unrested spirits become upset.





You may even go where you believe there has been contact with Ghosts before to do your hunt. Leave recording devices unattended and come back to see if you have anything. Sit in a room and ask questions (if you know who you are trying to contact, ask questions that are specifically for them).





Digital cameras are the best for pictures (and some amazing pictures have turned up from ppl just walking around flashing the camera every few frames). camera phones, polaroid and other cameras are known to not pick up light well. They reoccuring show light flashes on the developed photos that are mistaken paranormal but turn out to be duds.





Ghosts dont' turn up on negatives for future reference. If your ';ghost'; some how does, then suspect it to be dust or some other natural phenomena.





a great site you may want to check out for ghost hunting materials or a cool place to post your sucess is ghoststudy.com they are based in oregan I believe and support the ghost hunting community online. besides the pictures are awesome and it's neat to see fakes and listen to some audio!
lol well nessie sorry to say your wrong. Ghost are most active when most humans are not...around 2-6AM. Yeah just try Quiji boards and stuff. Good luck seeing any...video and tapes are you best bet for now.
