Christ, mate. That's a properly unsettling experience. The torch dying is worth investigating - electromagnetic phenomena do sometimes precede paranormal activity.

£300 of equipment to discover that someone's house is just... a normal house with normal house noises. This is why I never do private investigations anymore.

Motorised tracking is essential if you want to follow fast-moving objects - your eye will lose it in seconds otherwise. That said, the NexStar is excellent value.

I'm still shaking as I write this, so forgive me if this is rambling. My name's Michael and this happened last night (17th March, around 11:15pm) on Pendle Hill during a solo hiking trip.
I'm using an older AGM Vox8735 handheld unit combined with a Bushnell trail cam. Total investment was about £350.
I had what I believe was an abduction experience around age 14 (now 37, so 23 years ago), but my memory of the event is fragmented.
Carwardine is excellent for narration. Did a BBC nature podcast for years so he knows how to actually read properly, unlike some audiobook narrators who sound like they're reading a phone...
This might sound paranoid but I've had three incidents over the past two years where I've gone to bed and woken up with no memory of sleep - like, literally no dream recall, no sense of time...
The bit about not wanting to tell them you found nothing made me cackle. You can't go 'Well Karen, your house is just boring and the building's just old' after she's been excited about it for a...

Do you take readings at ground level, waist height, or does it matter? This actually matters loads. Take readings at three heights minimum - ground, waist, and about 2 metres up (or head height if...
I've been doing some image stabilisation work on footage my cousin recorded near Windermere on 3rd September around 22:15.
Good discipline on the documentation - that's already better than 90% of field researchers. For hair analysis, you need to check colour, length, medulla pattern (the central channel), scale...

Fair warning: if you already have strong beliefs about Borley being genuinely haunted, you might find this frustrating. It's quite skeptical.

Skip the ghost box for now - most of them are just AM/FM radio white noise and honestly they're more entertainment than evidence. Stick with EMF and temperature readings plus voice recording.

Spend your money on a proper zoom lens and a spotting scope instead. Hard disagree. Thermal cuts through fog and darkness, which is exactly when cryptids are active.

I've been doing fieldwork on the Scottish Highlands (Cairngorms area) for the past two months, and I've collected what might be primate hair from three separate locations.
Second the FLIR E4 recommendation. I've had mine for three years and it's paid for itself in peace of mind alone. Mounted it in a weatherproof box on a tripod, runs off a solar panel setup.

King's Cross is built on burial ground and old plague pits from the Great Plague. Tons of residual spiritual activity there.

The moderation here puts most other paranormal forums to shame. Haha, you mean because we actually remove the nonsense?
This is painfully accurate. I went to investigate someone's 'haunted' office building with a full kit - EMF meter, thermal camera, audio recorder, the lot.
