Paranormal investigators use EMF detectors to locate paranormal activity as well as sources of electrical leakage.

In the paranormal field, it’s largely accepted that in order to communicate or manifest, spirits must gather energy from their surroundings. If this theory is possible, then the energy waves that are altered during the process can be measured. Paranormal investigators measure these changes in the electromagnetic field with EMF detectors.

Use an EMF Detector to Search for Paranormal Activity

To detect changes in the electromagnetic field, paranormal investigators first sweep a given area to discover that location’s base reading (In other words, the normal reading). A typical base reading is usually anywhere from 2 to 3 milligaus. A needle on the EMF Detector moves back and forth to indicate changes in electromagnetic energy. The needle moves to the right for higher levels of electromagnetic energy. Any spike on the EMF detector that occurs in combination with a sound, visual evidence, a cold spot, or disembodied voice caught on tape could mean that a spirit is trying to manifest.

Use an EMF Detector to Locate Harmful Amounts of Electrical Leakage

Since EMF detectors measure the strength of the electromagnetic field, investigators often find sources of electrical leakages instead of paranormal activity. Electrical leakages can result in the following symptoms: headaches, nausea, fear, paranoia, anxiety and if the leakage is severe enough, hallucinations.

Paranormal investigators can often follow high readings of electromagnetic energy to the source of the electrical leakage. When investigating, it’s very important to look for these non-paranormal causes of fluctuations in the electromagnetic field. Not only are leakages dangerous for the above reasons, most home owners are highly relieved to discover that a fixable solution exists for what they mistook for signs of a haunting. When the electrical issue is repaired, the symptoms disappear.

Other non-ghostly causes of fluctuations in the electromagnetic field:

  • Electrical fixtures will cause the reading to spike.
  • Buried or overhead electric lines can cause huge spikes in an EMF reading.

Latest Paranormal Gadget: The K-2 EMF DetectorMost EMF readers show readings based on a a needle that moves back and forth to indicate the strength of the electromagnetic field. Instead of using a needle, the K-2 Meter shows these fluctuations with lights.

Paranormal investigators that use the K-2 Meter will sit the device on a flat surface and begin asking questions aloud. They will normally ask questions that could be answered in yes or no fashion and wait for the lights to flash.
