When we get a request to come into  a building or onto a property, we first conduct an interview with the residents to gather a history of the property.  We ask for reports of anything unusual (apparitions, floating objects, strange noises, etc.).  These reports give us the information we need to prepare the correct equipment for the job.

During the investigation we will usually split up into two teams.  Each team will have digital recorders, digital cameras, and digital thermometers along with electromagnetic field (EMF) meters.  We will station ourselves in different areas where the reports have been made.  We will be working in a ‘lights-out’ mode.  A lot of what we do is trying to get an EVP (electronic voice phenomenon) and photos while sitting quietly in a room.  This is accomplished by asking the entity to respond to different questions, hoping that the answers will be caught on the digital recorders.

We are not there to chase out the entity, but to document its presence.
