Hello, fellow paranormal enthusiasts! I'm Maddie Kosloski, the curator of the San Benedetto Paranormal Museum, your go-to authority on all things eerie and unexplained. Today, I'm here to share some tips and tricks on conducting a paranormal investigation. So grab your EMF meters, spirit boxes, and a healthy dose of curiosity as we embark on a journey into the unknown!


  • Research, Research, Research: Before diving headfirst into the world of the paranormal, it's crucial to equip yourself with knowledge. Investigate the history, legends, and local folklore surrounding the location you wish to explore. Understanding the context and potential hauntings can guide your investigation and help you connect with any spirits present.


  • Assemble Your Team: Paranormal investigations are best conducted in a group. Recruit individuals who possess diverse skills, including skeptics and believers alike. Each member should bring something unique to the table, be it technical expertise, psychic abilities, or just an open mind. Teamwork is vital for gathering comprehensive evidence and ensuring safety during your investigation.


  • Essential Equipment: Every investigator needs a reliable arsenal of tools. Consider investing in a range of equipment such as EMF meters, digital voice recorders, infrared cameras, spirit boxes, and motion sensors. These devices can help you capture paranormal phenomena, detect energy fluctuations, and communicate with spirits, increasing your chances of a successful investigation.


  • Document and Analyze: Record every moment of your investigation. Take copious notes, snap photographs, and record audio and video footage. Pay close attention to any anomalies, unexplained sounds, or sudden temperature changes. These details will become valuable evidence during analysis and can reveal patterns or connections that may go unnoticed in the moment.


  • Respect the Spirits: Remember, you are entering someone else's domain, the realm of the supernatural. Approach your investigation with respect and empathy. Use polite and considerate language when communicating with spirits and ask permission before conducting any experiments. Maintain a positive and peaceful atmosphere to encourage paranormal activity and ensure a safe experience for everyone involved.


  • Analyze the Evidence: Once you've completed your investigation, it's time to scrutinize the collected data. Listen to audio recordings for Electronic Voice Phenomena (EVPs), carefully examine photographs for anomalies, and review video footage for unexplained occurrences. Collaborate with your team to analyze and interpret the evidence objectively. Remember, skepticism is healthy and helps maintain credibility.
