*** Where to look for GHOSTS ***



CEMETERIES: Although most cemeteries are quiet places for ghost-hunting, you sometimes might have an excellent chance for strange phenomena and spirit photos. There are some theories to explain this fact of cemetery-haunts. "Spirital portals" and "doorways" are two of them. Cemeteries with unmarked graves, where desecration has taken place or where tragic events have occurred often become haunted. A search through historical records can often point a researcher to a haunted graveyard.

CHURCHES, CHAPELS, ...: Like in the case of the theaters, these holy buildings are a place of human emotions, joy and grief. There is always a possibility that a chapel or church is build on "evil soil", unholy ground, eg. a gallows-lee. The building of the church or chappel would bless the ground and chase away the "evil spirits" or like some people call them "demons".

CRIME SCENES, WAR ZONES, BATTLEFIELDS, ...: These locations are dealing with a sudden loss of life and this can sometimes cause a spirit to linger behind in confusion. The tragedy and the trauma involved can also lead towards a residual haunting as the terrible events replay themselves over and over again. It's especially the insolent nature of the event that may cause a spirit to wander.

HOMES, HOUSES: Older, but also newer residences can have a stirring past with violent backgrounds including murder, suicide or tragic events. It are just these kind of event that cause a place to become haunted. THis haunting effect can have two possible explanations:

1. the spirit is not willing to leave the place because of the events
2. the spirit is drawn to the place because of the events
According to the type of spirit, the're divided into positive and negative ones. When a house is haunted it boast all kinds of different phenomena.

HOSPITALS, NURSING HOMES, ...: These locations that have seen life, and death, over the years are great places to find ghosts.

MOTELS, HOTELS, RESTAURANTS, ...: These kind of places have many visitors during their life. It isn't amazing that these are also places with a lot of energy and emotion. Tragic events do happen there: suicide, murder, accidents, adultery, ...

ROADWAYS, FORESTS, MINES, CAVES, RAILWAY STATIONS, SHIPS, ...: Are just another source and place where there was life and death. Sometimes insolent, sometimes by accident, but fact is, a spirit who does not find rest, keeps on wandering.

SCHOOLS: Tragic events that attract ghosts is also common in these buildings. These are places with a lot of energy and emotion. Tragic events do happen in schools: teasing, suicide, murder, accidents, not being marked, cast away, ...

THEATERS: Due to the fact that theaters are filled with human emotions and a lot of people who used to work there before they died, nourished a great love for their theater, seems to attract more come backs after their deaths.
