Paranormal Investigations

How does a paranormal investigation work?

Our team uses a combination of environmental monitoring, audio and video recording, and firsthand observations to document and analyze potential paranormal activity. Investigations typically include EMF readings, EVP sessions, infrared photography, and temperature monitoring.

What equipment do you use?

We utilize various tools to gather potential evidence, including:

EMF meters (to detect fluctuations in electromagnetic fields)
Digital audio recorders (to capture EVPs—Electronic Voice Phenomena)
Infrared cameras and motion sensors (to detect unexplained movement)
Environmental monitors (to record temperature shifts and atmospheric changes)

Do you always find evidence of ghosts?

No. While we have captured unexplained occurrences during some investigations, we approach every case with skepticism and an open mind. Not every investigation results in paranormal findings, and we prioritize logical explanations first.

Can I join an investigation?

Due to the sensitive nature of our work, we do not allow the general public to attend private investigations. However, we do occasionally host public events where guests can participate in a ghost hunt under our guidance.

Private Home Investigations

Yes! If you are experiencing unexplained activity in your home, we can conduct an investigation to gather evidence and provide insight. We handle all private investigations confidentially and with respect.

Is there a fee for an investigation?

No. PEIGHS does not charge for investigations. We conduct our work out of passion for paranormal research and a commitment to helping others understand their experiences.

Will you get rid of ghosts if you find them?

We are not exorcists or spiritual cleansers, but we can provide recommendations on how to manage paranormal activity, including connecting you with specialists in energy clearing if needed.

Skepticism & Science

Do you believe in ghosts?

Our team includes both believers and skeptics. We approach each investigation with an open but critical mind, seeking evidence to support or debunk paranormal claims.

Can’t all ghost sightings be explained scientifically?

Many experiences can be attributed to environmental factors, psychology, or even electrical interference. However, some cases defy conventional explanation, which is why we continue our research.
