I am ghost hunter, a paranormal investigator I live in Dunkirk, New York, I have been a EVP investigator for four years, and what I plan to do with the info recorded voices of ghosts I have gathered is to share it with people. I work with two other wonderfully dedicated investigates on the team, Kenny Narducci, and Tim Carrow, both paranormal researchers dedicated to finding new technology to enhance and better understand EVP's.

The name of our group is Ghost Searchers Society. We are an organization dedicated to the research and development of electronic voice phenomenon (EVP) and Instrumental TransCommunication (ITC), and other paranormal research. Our goal is to help people contact loved ones that have passed on through the EVP process by continually experimenting and developing advanced techniques for the recording of EVP. We are interested in how the EVP recordings work and what can be done to improve the clarity of such recordings.

On our journey of all that goes bump in the dark of night and the light of day... We are prepared for anything to happen as we explore the world of ghosts, haunting's, and the spine tingling proof offered in EVP (electronic voice phenomena). Contacting the Dead in the Electronic Age. Forget about Ouija boards, séances and spiritual mediums. The way to communicate with the dead in the 21st century is through electronics. No one can deny that computers and electronics have revolutionized life on this planet. And so to it has to Ghost Hunting.

My other affiliation is with Maine EVP Research.

Maine EVP Research
It is our hope this web site will continue to be a learning tool for those who are on their quest in this life for an understanding the Spirit World. Maine EVP Research exchanges theories, information, methods, and our experiences among fellow EVP Researchers. It is in our hopes by sharing with others our own work and knowledge we have obtained we can perhaps bring information that is scattered through the world to all EVP Researchers.

We like to educate the public on communicating with spirit. Connecting with the next plane of existence is very real and possible. By our experiences, we can teach others to understand and improve their natural abilities to make direct contact with the other side. Using these natural abilities and today's technology, we can provide physical evidence of the Continuity of Life.

This site has quite a few EVP's to listen to, from the site's staff and from its readers. Articles include information on methods and techniques for capturing good EVP's.

How I personally got started in researching EVP's is when my mom passed away. I wanted to know more about life after death... So one night I was listening to Coast to Coast with Art Bell and he had Barbara McBeath from The Ghost Investigators Society G I.S. with their recordings new selection of actual recorded voices of ghosts, EVP's, so I figured I would give it a try. And as they say, "The rest is Voices from the Other Side Paranormal History."

Can You Hear Them? ... Listen... The Dead Do SpeaK Sometimes, But Only In Whispers.

EVP's, also called Electronic Voice Phenomena research. “EVP is a process whereby unexplained snatches of voice or voices are embedded onto magnetic recording tape by a process that is not yet fully understood. The embedded "ghost" voice can be heard when the magnetic audio tape is played back on a standard tape recorder/player.”

Attempts to contact the dead have persisted through the ages, but interest in using technology to speak with the deceased arose during the early 20th century. In the 1920s, the great American inventor Thomas Edison told a reporter for Scientific American that he was working on creating a machine that could contact the dead.

“Ghost voices or actual spirit sounds and recordings that typically last only for a few seconds.

Listening To The Dead

This usually intense concentration is required in order to hear the voices on the tape, which usually has to be replayed several times in order to decipher the speech. The use of headphones is always highly recommended.”

WESTFIELD CEMETERY, Chautauqua County, NY

You may recall Westfield as that small town in western New York State in which the little girl, Grace Bedell, lived who wrote the letter to newly-elected Abraham Lincoln that he would look nice with a beard.

Lucille Ball EVP

Lucille Désirée Ball b. August 6, 1911 d. April 26, 1989
The Queen of Comedy passed away in April 1989. She had a very full and productive life for a woman who “had no talent” and whose fame was based on her own television concept that was turned down by the networks twice, because the American people would not go for it. For six seasons (1951-1957), the show was always at the very top of the rating charts. In January 1953, the episode where Lucy gave birth to their on screen son Little Ricky (Keith Thibodeaux) was the most watched single episode of television up to that time (over 44 million viewers). This coincided with the birth of their first child, Desi Arnaz, Jr. (they also later had a daughter Lucie Arnaz).

Lucy was Burial: Forest Lawn Hollywood Hills * Los Angeles

I live 25 miles away from Lucille ball's grave site and went their a few times this year and picked up some interesting EVP's around her grave.

Legendary comedic actress, best known for the title role in the hit television sitcom of the 1950’s “I Love Lucy.”

Going over the Lucy recordings I found this. I was telling Lucy that I seen a special with her home movies and noticed she had a lot of pets then I turned off my digital recorder and came back later and when I started recording again this is the first thing that recorded. I played this for a couple of people and they say it sounds like Lucy. What do you think? Pet .wav

In 1901 a Russian American by the name of Waldemar Bogoras was an ethnologist studying the shaman of a remote Siberian tribe. Whilst recording the shaman beating his drum and entering a trance-like state many voices, coming from all around the room speaking in Russian and English, were captured on his crude phonograph. And also, from the very early 1900`s Marconi, Tesla and Edison spent the last years of their lives trying to develop devices for communicating with spirit. It is known that Edison had taken out some patents on various machines for communicating with the dead. Also, in 1967, in a post-mortem message, he made suggestions how to modify TV sets and to tune them to 740 megahertz for the express purpose of receiving paranormal effects.

In 1933 there was a public demonstration of a seance in the New York studio of the World Broadcasting Company (that later became Decca). Four eminent parapsychologists and two reputable electrical engineers, under rigidly controlled test conditions, were shocked to hear many paranormal voices speaking to them. These entities even moved their voice levels high up into cycles which were way beyond the range of any human being, between 3 - 5,000 cycles. (This is incorrect. Healthy, young people hear in the range 20 - 20,000 Hertz) The results of this test were kept within the files of the ASPR (American Society for Psychic Research).

A Californian, Attila von Szalay, in 1936, started capturing paranormal voices on phonograph records and the in the mid 1950`s he was joined by Raymond Bayless. Together they acquired many evidential EVP on their new tape recorders and they published their findings in the Journal of the ASPR.

About this time also, dozens of reports of intrusive voices of unknown origin from military and civilian installations world-wide were gathered together and put in the book by John Keel called OUR HAUNTED PLANET.

A few years later in 1959, the so-called father of EVP, Friedrich Juergenson, a Russian born Swedish film producer, after recording birdsong on his tape-recorder, heard on playback what appeared to be a human voice. Subsequent recordings contained a message which seemed to be coming from his dead mother. This was the beginning of his lifelong involvement with the taped phenomena that became known as the RAUDIVE voices. He mentions his experiences in a book which made a deep impression on the Latvian psychologist Dr. Konstantin Raudive.

It is significant that Juergenson`s work on the taped voices was made known to the Vatican in 1960 and his suggestion that these recordings are voices from the dead was sympathetically considered. In 1973, Archbishop Dr. Bruno Heim presented Juergenson to the Pope for investiture as Commander of the Order of St Gregory for his work.

Since Jurgenson's report, thousands of people all over the world have attempted to replicate his experiments, and many have claimed success. Many people do not use specialized equipment to capture the voices, only a microphone and a means of recording, such as a tape/minidisc/CD recorder or a computer. Patience is required however, because many claim that it can take months of diligent recording before voices appear. Proponents recommend the use of headphones, because the voices are often faint, and a computer for processing the recordings is very helpful

Instrumental Transcommunication
EVP is a subcategory of Instrumental transcommunication (ITC), which means the use of the tape recorder, video recorder, TV, radio, computer, telephone and other technical devices for the express purpose of getting meaningful information from the quantum realm in such forms as voices, images and text. In the case of telephones, many people report having received phone calls by someone claiming to be a deceased relative or a colleague. The voices can also manifest via the white noise between un tuned stations on a radio.

Some of the most remarkable cases involve television and computers; a distorted image of a dead person's face will sometimes appear on a television screen, and some images even appear as a clear "full body" snapshot of the deceased individual, often standing in the foreground of a beautiful and peaceful looking backdrop. In some of these cases, the spirit will use the television to say that the scene behind them is an actual view of the "astral world", and that the background scene is depicted in order to reassure the living that their deceased loved ones are in a safe and "wonderful" place.

Recording EVP
The quality, volume and durations of recordings are said to be increased by using a sound source placed within audible distance of the microphone during recording. Typically this would be a radio tuned to between stations so only white noise is audible; the theory being that this provides an acoustic basis for the voices to be constructed from, similar to vocoder technology.

This need for background noise fits the alternative explanation that the white noise provides random sounds that may be interpreted as voices by people who expect or want to hear voices. This explanation is consistent with the theory that the entire "phenomenon" is an example of pareidolia, in which a vague or random stimulus is mistakenly perceived as recognizable (see the skeptic section).

Voices are said to be known for being rapid, faint, and often spoken in grammatically unusual and simplified language—or even multiple languages during the same sentence. The interpretation of such recordings is often highly subjective and may differ from listener to listener; some listeners may hear nothing at all, while others report hearing specific phrases or sentences.

A very interesting case is that of two Italian Catholic priests who in 1952 were trying to record a Gregorian chant, but a wire in their equipment kept breaking. Out of desperation, one of the priests asked his dead father for help. Then, to his amazement, his father's voice was heard on the tape saying, "Of course I shall help you. I'm always with you." The priests brought the matter to the attention of Pope Pius XII, who reportedly accepted the genuineness of the phenomenon.

TV/VCR

In 1985, according to Instrumental Contact with the Dead?, German psychic Klaus Schreiber started receiving pictures of deceased family members on his television. Sometimes just voices would come across, telling Schreiber how to tune his TV for better reception. When Schreiber died soon after, his own image began to show up on the TV screens of some European ITC researchers.

Some researchers have claimed success in capturing ghost images with an instrumental transcommunication (ITC) set-up. With this technique, a video camcorder, connected to a television, is pointed at the television screen. In other words, the camera is recording the image it is simultaneously sending to the TV, creating an endless feedback loop. The frames of the video are then examined one by one, and sometimes ver distinct human faces can be seen.

A SERIES OF CAUTIONARY TALES

The Search for EVP

Over the years, interest in Electronic Voice Phenomena, or EVP, has waxed and waned with the capriciousness of the growing cult of paranormal enthusiasts. This quasi-scientific method of attempted contact with (and by) the dead is not an old concept – throughout their respective careers both Edison and Marconi, the fathers of modern communications, were developing techniques they hoped would result in contact with departed human personalities. Later, galvanized by the Spiritualist movement of the early 20th century, attempts at the recording of disembodied voices once more became an important part of paranormal research, at least on the amateur level.
