Evidence Acquisition:

Each ghost leaves three distinct traces. Utilize the correct equipment to gather evidence and pinpoint the ghost type. Seven evidence types exist:

  • Laser Projector: Reveals ghosts as faint silhouettes.
  • Handprints: Blacklight reveals fingerprints and footprints.
  • Spirit Box: Communicate with the ghost; responses may require multiple attempts.
  • EMF Level 5: EMF reader; full illumination indicates a specific ghost type.
  • Ghost Orb: Video camera captures ghostly orbs.
  • Freezing Temps: Thermometer detects significant temperature drops.
  • Ghost Writing: Spirit book reveals ghostly writings.
