What to Expect
THE PARANORMAL MD is committed to respecting client privacy as well as client property and will conduct all business in a professional, discreet, and respectful manor.
Upon receiving an investigation request, the client will be contacted and a questionnaire will be emailed to you for you to complete. Upon receiving your completed questionnaire back, an appointment will be made for a preliminary in person interview at the location where the paranormal activity is occurring. For various reasons, it is possible that a phone conversation may be had before the in person interview. Research of the client's property will be conducted to establish if any history has been recorded that may correspond to what the client is experiencing.
Upon arrival to the client's location for the in person preliminary meeting, we will review your answers on the Questionnaire and more than likely will ask additional questions. Next, the client is briefed on what will be taking place during the investigation. During this meeting photos will be taken of the location being investigated, as well as the room layout sketched. This is done so that the best placement of equipment will be made. This is also done so that the team of investigators who will be present the night of the investigation know in in advance what needs to be done and can immediately get to work upon arrival. Equipment such as video cameras, audio recorders etc. will be set up in accordance to the location of the reported activity and the layout of the location and the power sources.
On the night of the investigation, EMF, temperature, and barometric pressure base line readings throughout the property are taken and recorded. Any questionable areas of high EMF readings or temperature variations are inspected to determine the cause and recorded as not to interfere with the ongoing investigation. Carbon Monoxide readings are also taken to ensure the clients safety too.
The time devoted to any paranormal investigation varies from location to location. However, each individual investigation usually lasts about 6 – 8 hours. Depending on the size of the location of the client's property as well as the type of activity present, more time may be required. This will be discussed with the client in advance and your desired time frame will be adhered to.
Upon completion of the investigation, THE PARANORMAL MD will analyze all video, audio, photographic, and other data gathered at the location looking for any correlation and evidence. It is difficult to state exactly how long the review process and report will take, but we will do our best to be as speedy as possible while maintaining the integrity of the review process as to ensure accuracy in our findings and report.
Once the review process and report has been completed you will be contacted to set up a meeting at which we will reveal our findings to you and to discuss what evidence (if any) was found. If evidence collected requires further investigation, a follow up investigation will be advised and if the client agrees, another follow up investigation will be scheduled. A follow up investigation may be needed for various reasons.
Client Guidelines
In order to conduct a complete, thorough and untainted paranormal investigation, it is very important that these few but very important guidelines be followed and adhered to by the client(s).
1. The "client(s)" to be present at the investigation location will consist of no more than two adults, unless prior arrangements have been made and accepted with us.
2. In order to have an uninterrupted investigation, we ask that no persons other than the client(s) be present at the location of the investigation. This will eliminate the possibility of unnecessary noise from other people corrupting any/all audio recordings.
3. Accommodations for pets and children under the age of 18 must be made prior to the investigation as they should not be present at the investigation location for their own well-being and safety, and so there is no audio or video corruption.
4. We will ask that all air conditioners, heaters, ceiling fans, televisions, radios and any other noise/dust producing apparatuses be turned off 1/2 hour prior to the investigation. If it is not possible to comply with all of this please make us aware of this.
5. Please allow enough time for the investigation to be completed. Paranormal activity can happen at any time day or night and there are variables to consider in how long an investigation may take. Usually, per investigation, it may take from 6 – 10 hours to collect evidence for analysis and up to five weeks to thoroughly analyze all video, audio and still pictures, and to complete the report.
6. If the investigation and consequential recorded activity merits a follow up investigation, we will contact the client and make arrangements to do so at the client’s convenience (with respect to prevailing circumstances).
Please remember, The Paranormal MD does not charge for our investigation services. We conduct technological research keeping the scientific process in mind and investigate reported paranormal activity. Through the investigation process, we record, log and analyze any and all recorded possible paranormal activity in an attempt to validate and document what the client has reported to have witnessed. We often will learn specifics about the activity occurring. When appropriate The Paranormal MD will make recommendations as to a course of action
