Paranormal Investigations FAQ

Welcome to my Paranormal Investigations FAQ, where I answer the most common questions about ghost hunting in the UK. Whether you’re curious about haunted locations, equipment, or how to book an investigation, I have got you covered.

1. What is a paranormal investigation?

​

A paranormal investigation is a methodical exploration of locations believed to be haunted. Investigators use a mix of scientific tools and historical research to document phenomena such as EVPs (electronic voice phenomena), shadow figures, or unexplained environmental changes. Teams combines technology, expertise, and intuition to uncover the truth behind reported hauntings.

​

​
16. Can spirits harm you?

​

Most paranormal interactions are harmless, manifesting as noises, cold spots, or feelings of being watched. Negative experiences are rare, but we always use protective techniques and work with respect to minimise risks.

​
17. What happens during a typical investigation?

​

A standard investigation includes:

​

  1. Historical research

  2. Baseline environmental readings

  3. Active investigation using equipment and communication attempts

  4. Evidence review and analysis

  5. Final report with findings
    Our method is structured, respectful, and evidence-driven.

​

18. Are ghosts real?

​

The question of whether ghosts are real is still debated. While there is no definitive proof, countless investigations have captured unexplained phenomena. The decision to believe is ultimately a personal one. I have experienced enough to suggest that spirits (Ghosts) are indeed real. Please read my blogs.

​

19. How do you communicate with spirits?

​

We use methods such as EVP recording, spirit boxes, cat balls, and dowsing rods. Sometimes, communication occurs through subtle environmental responses rather than direct words.

​

20. Why do spirits remain in certain places?

​

Theories suggest spirits may linger due to unfinished business, emotional attachments, or because they are energy imprints replaying past events. Every case is unique and requires careful investigation. Spirits perhaps visit and not stay, although they are perhaps drawn to certain locations, people or objects.

​

21. How can I tell if my house is haunted?

​

Signs may include:

​

  • Unexplained sounds or voices

  • Sudden cold spots

  • Objects moving

  • Electrical disturbances

  • Strong feelings of being watched
    Keep a log and contact us if activity continues. Perhaps set up IR cameras.

​

22. What should I do if I think my home is haunted?

​

Stay calm and rule out natural causes first. Keep a record of activity, avoid provoking spirits, and reach out to experienced investigators if you need help, such as Paranormal Hunters UK.

​

23. What makes your investigations different?

​

We offer a blend of science, history, and intuition. Unlike many teams, we provide tailored investigations, share findings openly, and treat every location with respect. We like to believe that we bring something to the spirits before asking our questions.
