How Ghost Hunters Demonstrate Hauntings - And Why It’s Mostly Nonsense

I’m going to tell you right now: Most hauntings aren’t real. In fact, in the entire history of paranormal investigations, no one has verified a real haunting. Could there still be ghosts? Sure. But there could be good Kevin Smith movies, too. The point is, no one has discovered any.

Still, producers of ghost-hunting TV shows know that most people don’t know that there are sound, nonghoulish explanations for spooky voices and bumps in the night. And they know that if they manipulate their footage just right (even without adding any special effects), they can create a pretty convincing “haunting.”

The same may be true for local ghost hunters. Although many of them are sincere, their methods leave a lot to be desired. I’ve been investigating paranormal claims for several years, and I’ve never run into anything that couldn’t be explained with a little science. Here are the top 7 things you can look for, so you don’t get hoodwinked.
