The smartphone attachments are mostly gimmicks. Your phone camera is already decent - learn to use manual mode instead.
This is why I stick to thermal imaging cameras and digital recorders. Less to go wrong with moving parts, and they work fine when wet.

This is the kind of thinking I come to Quirk Reports for, honestly. You're not mad. Whether or not we're in a simulation, the historical pattern you're describing is genuinely weird.
Most embarrassing moment as a paranormal enthusiast? Genuinely can't decide if this is endearing or the reason nobody takes us seriously as a hobby. Either way, made me laugh.

I would actually take this more seriously. The TfL has stopped publishing incident reports on certain lines and there's been a noticeable increase in anecdotal accounts on Reddit and other forums...

I use a Neewer LED light panel (about eighty quid on Amazon) which gives me control over brightness and colour temperature, plus a backup torch.

Personally I think the actual declassified stuff is more interesting than the conspiracy version. The genuine mystery is more about what the radar signatures were and why multiple witnesses...
Is this a known thing? Mate, the London Underground literally has ghost stories dating back to Victorian times.

I've been re-reading historical accounts of Spring-heeled Jack from the 1830s onwards, and something's been bugging me.
Borley is absolutely worth investigating properly. My recommendations: (1) Bring way more batteries than you think you'll need - paranormal activity at Borley apparently drains batteries faster...

One tip nobody mentions: get multiple cameras and place them to triangulate. If you capture the same creature from different angles on the same night, the evidence gets exponentially stronger.
The skepticism is good actually. This field attracts a lot of people who'll claim literally any noise is a poltergeist.
Has anyone been following the ongoing FOIA requests related to Rendlesham Forest? I know there's been a lot of movement on this over the past few years, with various documents being released or...
The National Archives has loads of Rendlesham documentation available now. Jim Penniston's witness statement is in there, some of the radiation data, and correspondence between defence officials.
Oh mate, that's brilliant and I'm sorry but also not sorry because we've ALL been there. I got caught in the rain on Pendle Hill at midnight with full EMF equipment because I 'sensed a presence.'...

What combination of equipment actually works? The honest answer is that most trail camera footage of cryptids is garbage because (a) cryptids are smart and avoid the cameras, or (b) what people...
The SB7 knockoff is honestly your problem there. If you're going to drop £200, get the actual ITC-Z or save a bit more for the legitimate SB7.

thermal imaging is worth the money for a beginner Thermal is brilliant for detecting heat anomalies but not necessarily ghosts - you'll mostly see insects, air currents, and structural temperature...

Brilliant thread. I'd add: interview the current property owners or neighbours thoroughly. They might have explanations for phenomena that seem mysterious at first.
Right, I need cheering up and I reckon we've all got a horror story. Mine: I was absolutely convinced my flat in Hackney was haunted - mysterious cold spots, creaking sounds at three in the...
