Ghost can drain energy from living life forms, and batteries! On several investigations, some of us have become very sick, and felt drained of energy. We have had bran new batteries in our equiptment, and during the early part of our investugation, the batteries have suddenly died. It is advised to always buy fresh batteries, and extra batteries prior to an investigation. Always be prepared. If a member of you'r group becomes ill, get that member away from the investigation area immediately. Do not allow the member to return to the specific investigation area that night. Drink lots of fluids before an investigation, and make sure to have a good meal. NEVER go to an investigation under the influence of drugs, or alcahol. Try to be clean 24 hours prior to an investigation.

Children, and animals are more likely to see Ghosts, and paranormal happenings. Have you ever seen a baby laughing and cooing at something that is not there? Maybe you've seen a dog or cat get all excited over something you cannot see. Children and animals have not been tampered with by society. They do not have the ability to be scheptics. Some children even have IMAGINARY friends. Parents tend to reason with them to make them believe these friends are imaginary. As they grow older, the children even believe the imaginary friends was just a figment of thei'r imagination. We should pay more attention to children and pets. We could learn a lot from them.
 

A lot of people are afraid of the unknown. For some to see a ghost would be so frightening! The truth is, most ghosts are afraid of the living even more than vice versa. Ghosts have also been known to become attatched to people, objects, or places. Some even claim that ghosts come near when a certain song is being played. Some ghosts don't even realize that they are ghosts. Face it. If there are odd paranormal occurrences in you'r dwelling, maybe you'r dwelling once belonged to someone who is passed on. Would you want ofhers in you'r home that had been you'rs for so long?
