You don’t have to be a psychic to prove the existence of spirits. With the right equipment, you can develop the skills necessary to begin your own ghost hunting expeditions! Learn to examine evidence of potential haunting to determine whether unexplained phenomena are the result of authentic supernatural manifestation. Using real-life ghost hunting gear, you’ll conduct your own paranormal investigation into the presence of spirits within The Hawthorne Hotel, Salem’s most haunted hotel!

  • Explore methods of ghost photography using infrared, digital, and even disposable cameras, and learn to identify the different kinds of photographic manifestation, such as orbs, apparitions, and ectoplasm.
  • Work with EMF (electro-magnetic field) meters and temperature sensors to detect if mysterious changes in the environment could be the cause of spirit activity.
  • Learn to capture ghostly voices with EVP (electronic voice phenomena).
  • Witness a gallery of ghost photos that show inexplicable phenomena captured on film. Spirits? A trick of the lens? Decide for yourself!
  • Hear chilling tales of true Salem hauntings.
  • Use dowsing rods to detect the presence of spirits, demonstrating how technology and psychic awareness can work hand in hand.
  • Enjoy spine-tingling appetizers and a cash bar brimming with spirits.

The evening ends with a visit to one of Salem's most haunted sites where you'll go on a real ghost hunt to investigate spiritual evidence of our city's dark legacy. Spectral Evidence: Ghost Hunting 101 will take you on a voyage into the world of paranormal investigation as you learn to become a practicing ghost hunter!
