I went on a ghost tour once and they tried to use an EM reader like a goddamn PKE.
‘This timeball tower is haunted by an old keeper look!!’
Bitch you’re literally surrounded by people with mobile phones in their pockets, and there’s a goddamn maritime signalling tower on top of the damned thing.
I like the ones that say random words out nowhere. “Buzz buzz Krankenwagen buzz buzz” “the ghost was German” in the Asian haunted house.
Let’s get some good camera shaking going, turn on the night vision, and run out of the room randomly.
Hey listen to this EVP I got from the cheap ass recording device that I was waving around like a mad man. Nevermind the fact that the professional boom mic didn’t pick anything up.
When you edit the file just right, tweak the equalizer just so, and apply the right filters, I can fool you into hearing something that almost sounds like a word!
Maybe try the ~radio scanner~ *ahem* spirit box?
Welcome to season 37 of Ghost Hunters! We’ve never actually confirmed a ghost sighting, but I’m sure we’ll find absolute proof this year!
“I get this heavy feeling on my shoulders”
… and the oscar award for masterful theatrics goes too~
It’s so cold bro do you feel that, right here, it’s so cold. Just me? Nah. bro. it’s cold, colder than anything cold. That’s incredible what power
I’ve always been a skeptic but when I was a teenager Ghost Hunting shows were a guilty pleasure of mine. Tried watching some of the Ghost Hunters revival recently and holy shit its all so fake. Its a good 45 mins of the team “feeling” something with the rare instance of them claiming to witness activity that is conveniently off camera. Why don’t they wear body/head cams? Because then they wouldn’t be able to pull that shit and claim their anecdotal experience as “evidence” the location is haunted.
Btw they say every location is haunted now. Even when the best evidence they can find is some odd ambient sound or “EVP” that they suggest vaguely sounds like a noise a person can make. Notice how the person they are presenting the evidence too can never tell what the “EVP” is saying until the Ghost Hunters suggest something. At least in the old days they used to debunk stuff on occasion. They also used to occasionally find more substantial evidence, but I think in the era of HD TV’s and Cameras + the scrutiny of the internet they know they cant get away with faking that shit anymore. They basically just go around giving businesses “evidence” to market that they are haunted and enabling delusional homeowners. I’m honestly ashamed that I was ever gullible enough to consider that they may have been legit.
This is a good point I have never thought about lol
most ghosthunting techniques are just
- generate random data out of noise (radio static, darkness, wind, silence, emf, electrical malfunctions etx)
- your brain makes out patterns
I always envision this whenever I see reality TV.
Beverly Crusher visibly sweating.
Tbf theres less expected emf on that set compared to a normal set because the boom op is not using headphones.
I just want the “Sickos” shirt guy to appear in the window as a ghost. “YES! HA HA HA… YES!!”
Welp, time to play Phasmaphobia again!
