Lead researcher, Lead investigator & Co-Owner
Texas Ghost Hunters Network| Houston, TX
Paranormal investigators study any unusual happenings within a place. This can vary from strange noises
to floating objects. Investigators work by either aiming to disprove a haunting or trying to find evidence
for said haunting. The disapproval method involves searching for possible other sources for any supposed
paranormal activity. In some instances, these can be gas leaks, power lines or unstable house foundations.
Investigators who prefer to try proving hauntings do so by using tools like electromagnetic field detectors
and thermal cameras to capture evidence of a haunting in a home or building. Many investigators also
take care to talk with the people needing the investigation to help them understand paranormal
phenomena and put their worries at ease
