Ghost Hunting on a Budget: EVPs and Safety Tips

Ghost Hunting on a Budget: A Guide for Paranormal Enthusiasts Have you ever wanted to explore the world of the paranormal but didn't know where to start? Or perhaps you're on a tight budget and can't afford expensive equipment. Well, fear not! In a recent YouTube video, Tony Filosi from Harlan County Paranormal, a division of the Crypto Crew, shared some valuable tips for ghost hunting on a budget. One of the most important tools for ghost hunting is a good recorder. Tony recommends the Sony professional digital recorder, which can be found at Walmart for around $70. This recorder has a thousand hours of record time on a couple of double A batteries and can pick up sounds lower and higher than the human range of hearing. This is crucial for capturing Electronic Voice Phenomena (EVPs), which Tony considers some of the best and easiest evidence to catch. When it comes to enhancing EVPs, Tony advises using free software on your laptop or PC to make minimal adjustments, such as slowing down or amplifying the sound. However, he warns against over-editing as it can make the EVP sound cartoonish and detract from its validity. During EVP sessions, Tony suggests asking relevant questions, especially if you're at a historical site. This adds to the statistical probability of capturing true spirit communication and not something random. He also recommends holding up everyday objects, such as a recorder or a hat, and asking what they are to see if you receive an intelligent response. Another essential tool for ghost hunting is a good flashlight or headlamp. Safety should always be your first priority, and a reliable light source will help you avoid tripping hazards and other dangers. Additionally, it allows you to see your team members and any potential paranormal activity. Tony notes that you can find a good flashlight or headlamp at Walmart for around $25. Ghost hunting doesn't have to break the bank, and with these budget-friendly tips, you can start your paranormal journey today. Who knows, you might even capture some compelling evidence along the way! Be sure to check out the full video for more insights and advice from Tony Filosi.
