There’s no shame ghost hunting by yourself. I’ve gone on plenty of investigations alone, and I’ve made plenty of mistakes on solo ghost hunts. When I started, I didn’t have a mentor. I read some books, watched some shows, and then picked up my MEL meter and headed out into the dark. Luckily, I had some street smarts about me because I started in Chicago. Big cities will definitely make your much more aware of your environment, eh?

Anyway, here’s the advice I hope you take to heart as a solo ghost hunter.

I stopped ghost hunting at private homes a few years back. I’ve had a few too many bad experiences, and here are the reasons why I pass on residential ghost hunts.

1. Willpower

The bonus tips include a white-light protective sphere and setting boundaries for interaction. Finally, I have 2 cases where prayer didn't work, and led to escalating activity.

In this episode, find what dark history means for paranormal research, how it’s the foundation of ghost hunting, what questions to ask, and which resources to use.
