Unfortunately information becomes scares and none existent once you've moved beyond those 101 basics. Let's change that here and now. Assuming that we're all knowledgeable on those basics, we'll take a look at some of the hard cold facts concerning ghosthunting. For starters, ghosthunting is not, and probably never will be, a mainstream pastime. Like it or not. Television characters may weave, sculpt, or weight train, in their spare time. But honestly, when is the last time you saw any character in a regular television series, ghosthunt? Yes, there are those cable ghosthunter series on the sci-fi channel etc, but what about a sitcom or serious drama based on ghosthunters?
This doesn't necessarily mean we are all alone in a world of disbelievers. Still it might be a good idea to face the fact that we will have a lot of explaining to do the moment someone knows we are ghosthunters. Think this isn't a fact? Tell someone at the office that you're going on a ghosthunt this weekend and prepare to answer questions. Lots of them!
Our next fact is directed at those hard core ghosthunters, you know who you are who never use anything in their investigations but scientific equipment. Remember all those tools and instruments we learned about in ghosthunting 101? All data from the ghosthunt is derived from ambient temperature readings, electromagnetic field detector readings, sound recordings (EVP) and photography. Scientific? You betcha! Now might be a good time to remember the fact that ghosthunting, like medicine, is not an exact science.
As far as theories go, ghosthunting is fraught with them. Everyone in the field has at least one. Why do ghosts exist? Unfinished business, is as good a theory as any other. Next question! Can I rid myself of an obnoxious ghost? Probably not, and certainly not as easy as ridding oneself of an obnoxious spouse. How is it possible for the ghostly Marilyn Monroe to haunt so many different places at the same time? Perhaps some of these apparitions are imposters. Perhaps not. When one enters ghostdom it might be entirely possible to be in many different places at the same time. What happens if you take a mirror and hold in to another mirror? You will see hundreds of reflections of yourself. It's a theory. But it is only one of many theories that we ghosthunters will hold once we have Ghosthunting 101 behind us.
