Back from a Ghost Hunt


Last week I had the chance to revisit a haunted rectory. It’s always interesting to go back to a location we’ve been to before. Our team is able to take what we learned on the last investigation and apply it to what we’re doing. Sometimes we find out names or new bits of history that make asking questions easier. It also gives us a chance to explore rooms or spaces we may have not had time to explore the last time.

This place is especially interesting to spend time in because whatever is there, just feels dark. It’s hard to explain to someone who has never been there, but the negative energy in this places is worse than anywhere I’ve ever been. The owners are genuinely scared of whatever it is that hangs out there-and I don’t blame them.

I’m hoping we will get some cool footage from the place so I can share some stuff with you guys, but for now, you will just have to take my word for it.

Psychometry

Have you ever picked up a photo or old object and gotten a feeling or idea about the object itself? That’s what psychometry is. People with psychic abilities sometimes claim to be able to learn things simply by holding or touching things.

It’s an interesting concept. The fact that parts of our lives and emotions could be imprinted on the objects we come into contact with is pretty cool. It’s sort of nice to think that we might be able to imprint part of who we are into the world, even if it’s just for a brief psychic moment.

Of course, there’s no solid evidence that this is possible. But it is a pretty fascinating theory. Do you think it’s possible to leave a psychic imprint on something? I think it’s definitely possible.

Paranormal Events


 

A lot of people I meet express an interest in the paranormal. Once they find out that I ghost hunt, they ask tons of questions, tell me their own ghost stories, and frequently ask how they can get started in ghost hunting.

There really are a lot of ways to get involved in the paranormal community and this is a great time of year to start. Halloween is just around the corner and a lot of historical societies, museums, and organizations hold ghost events to bring in new people.

If you are looking to dip your toes in the paranormal, start searching for events near your home. Something as simple as a ghost walk around town can help you decide if you want to get more involved in learning about the paranormal-and can be a lot of fun. You can also use these events to network with other people who are interested in the paranormal. A lot of tourist spots also offer ghost events, so if you take a trip somewhere you might want to see if there are any spooky events that sound fun.


Have any of you attended paranormal events?
