As a follow-up to my post last Sunday about the apparent debunking of the Hampton Court haunting, it’s worth noting that Public Parapsychology have featured an essay series over the past week on the very topic of magnetic field measurements at ‘haunted’ locations. The essays, co-written by Bryan Williams, Annalisa Ventola and Mike Wilson, point out the surmised correlation between hauntings and magnetic fields, and give tips to any paranormal hobbyists on how to take measurements.
The series kicked off with “ Magnetic Fields and Haunting Phenomena: A Basic Primer for Paranormal Enthusiasts (Part 1)“, which concentrated on explaining geomagnetic fields. Part 2 of that essay focused on the separate area of electromagnetism. And the third instalment, “ Tips for Measuring Magnetic Fields at Haunt Sites“, gets down to practical advice.
Gotta get me some of that gear and try it out. Never know when the Stay Puft marshmallow man is going to be walking the streets…
