We have formed a team of unique individuals that have different qualities and personal experiences with the paranormal.  We have amassed a great arsenal of equipment and run our team like the professionals you can see on the ghost hunter television shows.  Through our experiences and research in the field, we are attempting to determine why and how paranormal events happen in our lives.

Wisconsin Area Ghost Investigators Society (WAGIS) uses a large variety of state of the art equipment on our investigations to research and document paranormal activity.

Infrared Video Cameras:  We place these cameras in the areas that there is reported activity.  They are used in the dark and are able to pick up and record paranormal activity such as mists, plasma, ghosts or moving objects that are not seen either by the naked eye or by us if we are not in the room. This information is recorded onto a digital video recorder (DVR) and monitored on a laptop computer.

Digital Voice Recorders:  Digital Voice Recorders are used to capture Electronic Voice Phenomenon (EVP’s) or disembodied voices.  During an investigation we ask questions of ghosts and talk amongst ourselves and later review the recording session often hearing the voices or noises of spirits that were not heard by our ears during the recording session.  We have captured many good EVP’s during our investigations.

Digital Cameras:  We take hundreds of pictures during an investigation in an effort to document any paranormal activity such as Orbs, Mists, Shadows, Ghosts or other anomalies.  We are able to quickly review any given picture for evidence which helps us determine if we need to take more pictures in a specific area.

Thermometers:  We use Digital and Laser Thermometers to measure sudden drops in temperature or to get a base reading of the area we are in for comparison.  A sudden drop in temperature can signify the presence of spirit activity.

EMF Meters or Electromagnetic Field Detectors:  All objects give off an electromagnetic field, obviously some more so than others like electric motors or electrical wiring, microwave ovens, digital clocks, fuse boxes, televisions.  The EMF meter measures those changes of the electromagnetic field.  We get a baseline reading of the area and when we are in an area which has no meter detection of its own but responds to our questioning it is a good sign that there is a spirit present.  We have communicated with many spirits this way.  We also use a K2 meter which will measure the slightest change in the magnetic field and has LED indicator lights to show the strength of the spirit activity or electromagnetic field.  The more lights that flash, the stronger or closer the spirit is to us.

Digital Night Vision Camcorder:  The use of a digital night vision camcorder is closely related to the infrared cameras. We set up the camcorder in a reported hot spot location in hopes of catching the activity in progress when we are out of the room to get the activity to show up.
