Ghost Hunting Tools - Part III

In the previous parts, we talked about random number generators, energetic sensors, and EVPs, so I guess it is time to talk about Thermal Cameras.

In ghost hauntings, there are several cases that people describe irregular temperature variations, like feeling very cold to the point of being able to see they're own breath, so it is not the fear reaction, but the temperature going really down.



Since lighter variations are most common than more extreme variations, and lighter variations being more harder to 'feel', and since 'feeling' is not a good idea since it can be only the body's response to fear, a thermal camera is a very good tool!

Thermal cameras are able to make a image where certain color corresponds to certain temperature (in a color fade) so we can literally see the temperature distribution of anything at all, and since every 'body' emits temperature, there is the possibility of capturing a ghost on the thermal camera, or simply finding weird temperature variations of some parts of a room per example, and if there is not a logical explanation for it (water pipes passing nearby or something) it may represent a paranormal manifestation on that spot.



I've hear people that use digital cameras and say that they have a 'special software' that 'converts' the image into a thermal image, well... this is TOTALLY fake, the sensors that create the image are totally different! Probably what they do is exchange the color scheme to the same color scheme of the thermal cameras, but that gives a totally different 'reading'.

  1. The generators, energetic sensors, and EVPs are so important to the people who work on it, I think the we have to be so courageous because it is so dangerous and spooky.
