Capturing Evidence – How to Take Ghost Photographs
by theoklahomaghostchasers July 31, 2011
Lets be honest, who doesn’t want to know how to take ghost photographs. There may now be more methods of capturing evidence available than there once was, such as EMF readings and EVP recordings, but the ultimate success for any ghost hunter is to capture something they can actually see.

Now we all know that there is no way of definitely getting a photo of a ghost, if there was there probably wouldn’t be a debate anymore about whether they actually exist. However there are a few things you can do that should improve your chances of being one of the lucky ones.

What Equipment Do You Need

Ghost hunters still argue about the best type of camera to take on a ghost hunt as many don’t believe you should use a digital camera but I’m easy on the topic. At one time digital cameras where far inferior but that is no longer the case and provided that you have a camera of at least 5 mega pixels you should be fine
The only slight problem I do have is that images taken on digital cameras can be easily edited. This means if you capture some really good evidence you will find a lot of people feeling you have simply edited and you have no negatives to back up your claims unlike if you use a 35mm camera.


Where To Take Pictures

You could, in theory, take a picture anywhere and manage to capture something but to increase your chances it is simple logic to go where the ghost are. If you know of any local haunted hotspots then try them or if you don’t try to find some out by paying a trip to the library or asking other people in the area if they know of anywhere.

If this doesn’t give you any ideas or you simply cannot find anything you could always try places that are common for hauntings. These include:

Schools
Theatres
Hotels
Lakes
Battlefields
Churches
Halls
Cemeteries
Basically any place where dramatic events have taken place are usually a hotspot, so if you know of a murder that took place in your area or a suicide then it may be worth a try.


How To Take Your Photos

Simple logic should tell you that the more photos you take the better chances you have of capturing something. Thanks to the size of modern memory cards it is easy to take thousands of photos if you are using a digital camera, if they don’t capture any ghosts then they just get deleted. Using a 35mm camera is a little different but the main aim should still be to take as many pictures as possible.

Before taking any photographs try to get a good grasp of the surroundings so that you don’t capture something that may have you believing it is a ghost when it isn’t, such as leaves floating by, smoke or mist from a nearby source.

Also try to use a tripod as this will help to keep the camera steady and avoid blurry pictures. I would also suggest that wherever possible you avoid using the flash so that you avoid questionable orbs in your photos.

When To Photograph Ghosts

Many will tell you to go out late at night to try and capture pictures of ghost but I’m not one of them. Some of the best evidence of ghost where taken during the day rather than at night and it can also eliminate some of the question marks surrounding things such as orbs. In other words whether it is day or night you should take the pictures.

Capturing ghost photographs is down to a small percentage of doing things right and a massive percentage of luck. These tips are definitely helpful but in no way do they guarantee you will have success. However I wish you the very best of luck and hopefully you’ll get lucky.
