Ghost hunting and paranormal investigations are becoming increasingly popular with amateur ghost hunters, in part due to the easy access of information on the internet and current television shows about hauntings. Since the spirit of Halloween revolves around the souls of the dead returning to earth to haunt the living, Halloween night is considering a “prime time” for hunting ghosts. It’s an annual right of passage for both amateur and professional ghost hunters to be out in full gear that night.
Ghost Hunt – going to a location that may or may not be haunted and trying to capture them on film (video and/or photos). A graveyard late at night is the number one place to start.
Ghost Investigation – going to a known haunted place and recording data (video, photos, audio and temperatures), taking notes, interviews and other evidence to prove/disprove the haunting and existence of ghosts.
For many the quest is to seek out allegedly haunted locations, authenticate evidence of ghosts, do research and conduct investigations into paranormal activity. Among ghost hunters, some are also devotees of urban exploration, a growing hobby where enthusiasts venture into abandoned structures such as hospitals, asylums, and sanatoriums. The more experienced hunters investigate and document reports of ghosts, hauntings and paranormal activity; where as many of the amateur ghost hunters are just out to have fun.
The definition of a “haunting” is a recurring presence of a ghost, demon, or similar supernatural being at a specific place. Old houses, hotels, restaurants, pubs, prisons, cemeteries and graveyards are the most common haunted places. Belief in hauntings and ghosts spans the world and is recorded throughout history in legends and ghost stories.
There are five primary types of hauntings:
- Intelligent – may be a ghost or demon. The entity is aware of its surroundings, including living people who may be present.
- Residual – the entity does not seem to be aware of any living beings and performs the same repetitive act (often the reenactment of a tragic event).
- Benevolent – a ghost that seeks to help or protect the living sometimes from an evil spirit.
- Malevolent – ghost or demon that seeks to inflict harm on the living.
- Benign – entity that is either unconcerned about the living or unaware of their presence.
What better time of year than Halloween to check out some of the “hauntings” in your neck of the woods! Whether you’re a more experienced paranormal investigator or just out for a night of ghost hunting, the souls of the dead are waiting for you on Halloween night. Good luck and happy haunting!
