The League of Paranormal Investigators has a special interest in investigating historical and residential locations.
Although we usually initiate the contact when it involves an historic place, in the case of a residential investigation, the client contacts us.
|
Once the League has been contacted by a client, a Team Leader, acting as the liaison between client and team members, begins preparing for the investigation.
The client will be asked to fill out a questionnaire which asks for details about the location and its paranormal activity.
|
Another member of the team, the Research Manager, then performs a very detailed background check on the location; this information will be stored in a special case file.
In addition to background details, the case file contains an historic timeline, all relevant information about the location, and any pertinent information about current and/or past residents.
This research, which begins with an internet search, often leads the Research Manager to visit public libraries, cemeteries, and courts in order to find even more information.
|
 |
As the background case file is being compiled, the Team Leader assembles a team of paranormal investigators.
This investigative team is based on experience, training, availability, size of the location, and special requests from the client.
The duration of the initial investigation ranges from 1 to 6 hours depending on the size and first hand experiences from the psychics on the team.
Our goal is to investigate the property thoroughly; this often requires a follow up investigation.
|
Only the Team Leader and Research Manager are informed about the possible activity and the background of the location.
All other investigators are not informed about the investigation site until an hour before the investigation begins.
This will prevent any contamination before the investigation starts.
|
 |
Our team of psychics is extremely useful with pointing out the hotspots of psychic activity and with relaying psychic impressions.
When it comes to analyzing the evidence, the scientifically collected data will determine if a location is haunted or if it houses a certain amount of paranormal activity.
Our scientific method consists of collecting data, such as temperature and EMF readings with handheld devices, during an investigation.
Digital cameras, voice recorders and

|
infra-red cameras are also used to collect physical evidence.
A special designed software program called Ghost Lab is used to collect as much data possible during the investigation.
This program collects temperature, magnetic field, humidity, vibration, and motion.
During collection of information, the program will also analyze the incoming data for rapid sensor changes and motion detection.
All facts will be stored in a database so that a meta-analysis research project can be conducted at a later date.
|
Immediately after the investigation and while still on site, all investigators turn in collected evidence and fill out an initial investigation report.
Within 48 hours after the investigation, a detailed report containing personal experiences and findings is submitted to the Team Leader by each team member.
A final report will be completed and presented to the client.
|
The combination of information gathered by psychics, investigators, skeptic investigators, and scientifically collected data will determine if a location is haunted or not.
|
Our policy is to close a case promptly, often within a week or two week after the investigation.
In the case of a follow up investigation, it is up to the Team Leader to decide if a report after the initial investigation is required or if it is better to wait until after the follow up investigation.
|
All clients will receive a written report and a CD with the positive evidence collected during the investigation.
