DIY EVP FTW

EVP, or Electronic Voice Phenomenon, is the practice of recording audio in silence or near-silence, then playing back the recorded audio in hopes that ‘the spirits’ have left messages for you. This field of research is part of a larger belief in the ability of spirits to communicate via all things electronic, aka ITC: Instrumental Transcommunication. We recently covered a fascinating story of spirits being visible when recording video feedback loops.

To date no one has been to record a conversation with a ghost.
