… And now I have the audacity to offer yet another tip for approaching your investigations, despite not being an investigator myself (used to, but that was strictly an EVP venture LOL):
High EMF readings should be viewed as a method of potentially ruling out genuine hauntings, as fun as it might be to witness a sudden spike on your meter. Why? …
It’s a fact that strong electro-magnetic fields cause sensory hallucinations for some people by stimulating or creating instability in either of the two temporal lobes of the brain. That can translate into:
Auditory hallucinations
Sensations of being out-of-body
The sensation of being watched
… and other “mystical” experiences.
That is not to say there can’t be a genuine haunting in a place with a strong field. It just means strong EMF should routinely generate a higher index of skepticism/suspicion for investigators.
