The Ghost Meter: EMF Sensor

Now this isn't really my thing, but the subject of ghosts is often interesting and intriguing in its own right. This isn't just a hobby for commoners with fantastical imaginations, either, as even people with somewhat notable scientific titles have been researching and conducting experiments in certain "haunted" areas for many years. The paranormal experiments usually involve some high-tech equipment, recording devices, EMF sensors and whatnot. The most recent place that I've heard about, which involved a lot of researchers snooping through the territory, was at this woodland area near Transylvania. In fact, I've recently wrote a post about it over at the Myths, Legends & Folklore Blog. If interested, you can find that post, here: "Legend of Hoia Baciu Forest - Haunted?" Now back to the subject at hand...

The Ghost Meter found on this post, looks more like a cute version of something that could be used for various spooky experiments. The reviews vary but, if anything, it can at least find electrical wiring behind walls or detect high readings from power outlets; ha-ha! But seriously, if you are a hardcore ghost tracker, you may want to spend a bit more money and buy a more expensive, high-tech EMF sensor. The one shown here is under 40 dollars (at the time of writing this), and once the batteries are drained a little bit, the accuracy will most likely go way down. I wonder if the same thing applies for those shoddy metal detectors people often try to sell? Not sure, but it might not always be a good idea to "bargain shop" certain items, if ya know what I mean...

Anyway, this particular ghost meter claims to be a bargain and that it can outperform many of the more pricey models. It has been calibrated to ignore the extremely subtle EMF emissions surrounding the human body, but it is supposed to be sensitive enough to detect the EMF energy fluctuations that are commonly found at notoriously haunted locations. It has all the primary functions of what you'd expect from a quality EMF Sensor, plus you get the little label on it that says, "Ghost Meter." Is this just another sales gimmick or is it a true ghostly deal? Ha!

I started to include a picture of a book entitled "The Ghost Hunter's Field Guide," which is over 400 pages long and provides information and locations for over 1,000 places that are supposedly haunted in the U.S. If you combine the EMF sensor (along with a bit more gear/equipment) and that Ghost Hunter's book, you are sure to have some interesting road trips, depending on how much free time you have on your hands. As always, the drugs & alcohol is sold separately... Boo!

Update: About 9 years after I originally posted this, I ended up buying one of these EMF sensors on Amazon. Ghostly subjects may have reminded me of this device, but I actually decided to buy an EMF Meter due to its multi-functioning uses for detecting magnetic fields and electric fields along with radio frequencies. I bought a Tesmen Hound-200 Model that was within a similar price range as the one shown on this post. In my opinion, it was the best deal for the quality, and it's better suited for normal usage. It comes with a manual that also lists what level of detection is still considered within the safe range for each of the 3 functions, etc.  However, for more detail on that subject, a person could easily find more detailed information online. Overall, it is just a neat little device to own for those rare occasions you may need it. As for ghost hunting, well, I haven't tried it for that yet...
