Dark Phoenix Posted September 10, 2007 Share Posted September 10, 2007 Greetings all, For those of you who enjoy the show on the SciFi channel called Ghost Hunters (I am a HUGE fan), in the episode I have posted (only part of it) TAPS is in my ancestral homeland of Ireland!! The even more exciting part is that they may have evidence of elementals!! Watch and let me know what ya think!! Joe :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest 53rdspirit Posted September 10, 2007 Share Posted September 10, 2007 When is it being broadcast, DP? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark Phoenix Posted September 10, 2007 Author Share Posted September 10, 2007 Well the show is on every wednesday starting at 7:00 pm..but idk when they will show that episode again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest 53rdspirit Posted September 10, 2007 Share Posted September 10, 2007 "evidence of elementals" eh? --they're going to wish all they had to worry about are ghosts. :eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest 53rdspirit Posted September 10, 2007 Share Posted September 10, 2007 In my opinion, typically a "ghost" is pretty harmless other than annoying, scaring or startling the living. Elementals, on the other hand, can be tricky, harmful, unpredictable and down right mean. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leigh Posted September 11, 2007 Share Posted September 11, 2007 Ah, I remember that eposide from this past late spring/early summer. (Love the show, too. Never miss one if I can help it.) If I recall correctly, they intentionally entered a fairy ring were they were told locals never went and witnessed "sensations", then filmed small points of light moving in the trees and disappearring. Great episode. I like to believe they are true professionals and haven't doctored their experiences. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark Phoenix Posted September 12, 2007 Author Share Posted September 12, 2007 I believe they stay true to their word and dont mess around with evidence. They seem pretty reliable...but ya never know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
menteith Posted September 15, 2007 Share Posted September 15, 2007 There's a guy in town that used to be a cameraman with TAPS. I've been discussing ideas with him as far as making things easier to differentiate. For instance, ghosts drain batteries. It's one of the most commonly described phenomena. So why not just suffuse that area with EM radiation, like a rotating magnet? Will that give them the energy they need to manifest? Why do cold spots form? If they're trying to condense water in the air to form an apparition using the mist, what happens if you spray a cold spot with a plant mister? If they're drawing IR radiation and feeding on it, what happens if you put a hand warmer in that spot? There's a bunch of things that we've thought of, I just need to start making things.:jerk: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest 53rdspirit Posted September 15, 2007 Share Posted September 15, 2007 Nobody's thought/tried these ideas before? We are first reading of it here? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
menteith Posted September 15, 2007 Share Posted September 15, 2007 As far as I can tell no. I go with him if he's going back to a place to continue an investigation. I've got a few sketches of designs to put together (if anyone's interested, as soon as I can get them on the computer they're welcome to try them out as long as you let me know what the results are), but I haven't had the materials to put them together. A friend of mine through a body modification forum's husband is a cell tower technician, and apparently he sees an inordinate amount of apparitions (once every 6 months or so) at a cell tower near a cemetary, so I'm wondering if ghosts are able to feed off of the energy coming from the tower. Unfortunately, the frequencies are proprietary, but there's technology that can record those emissions. It might be worth me investing the money when I can, but that's not right now. I've also been trying to figure out residual hauntings (the mindless, repetitive ghosts that are the most commonly reported). Are they the same event happening once in multiple time frames, or are they recordings in the residual energy of an area? There are a few more ideas, but those two are the most probable (at this point, I think). There's an excellent book that I use for a lot of reference material on this type of thing. It's called "The Handbook of Parapsychology," and applies scientific scepticism to paranormal activity. Lots of good statistical data about everything from spirit photography to poltergeist activity. Hopefully I'll be able to do some more specific experimentation soon, but I just don't have the time... unfortunately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark Phoenix Posted September 16, 2007 Author Share Posted September 16, 2007 Wait sketches for what?? I am very interested since as previously states I LOVE this stuff and parapychology..lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
menteith Posted September 19, 2007 Share Posted September 19, 2007 I've got a few designs that I want to see in action... Unfortunately, some of them, while relatively easy to set up, are also REALLY expensive. One of them floods an area with EM radiation by spinning electromagnets at a high rate of rotation (moving magnet=electrical field). I realize this may screw up other electronics in the area a certain amount, but you can tune the frequency by adjusting the rate of spin of the magnets to not interfere as much and make energy transfer easier. There's another that uses parabolic EM sensors to triangulate positions of EM spikes rather than just "oh, there's a spike somewhere." Some, like the plant mister and hand warmer, are easy to do. Then I've been looking at different film chemicals that are sensitive to different EM spectra, or tuning a CCD (digital camera) to those frequencies. Once I get some experimental data I can refine the ideas. Until then... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
