EVP or Electronic Voice Phenomenon is the recording of unexplained sounds or voices on a tape recorder. EVP is often associated with picking up the voices of the dead or demonic entities. This is not an accepted fact of science and most people don't pick up any sounds on their tape recorders. However, there are numerous people claiming to have recorded ghostly voices, often giving unpleasant sounds such as crying, screaming or sardonic laughter. Here are some tips on getting EVP's on a tape recorder.
Instructions
1. Purchase a tape recorder. You may use digital if you wish.
2. Go to any place where you know for certain that people have died. Try remote and isolated areas. Go to cemeteries, mortuaries, ruins, old and unused buildings. Closed down hospitals and mental institutions are usually choice areas as well. Have your flashlight ready in case there is poor lighting. Some places may justify a hard hat, such as underground construction sites or abandoned prisons.
3. Turn on the tape recorder, then ask your first question. Give your spirit friends at least 20 seconds or longer for a response before you ask your next question. Ask questions about the surroundings, their name and what they do. Also ask why they are there. They might ask you the same question, so don't be too surprised.
4. Wear headphones that do not allow noise to come in from outside. Try BOSE headphones for blocking out the noises that could distract you from listening (see Resources). Another good thing to do is to rewind the tape a second time and listen again. This way you know that whatever you heard was from the tape and not imagined or heard from external noises.
