The disturbing thing happens: it is more popular than many people would like to think. One of the practical aspects of each book that deals with ghosts and other paranormal activities is a way to check if your house is haunted. In other words, how to detect the presence of ghosts and spirits? There are many ways to do it, which I am going to describe right now.
cold spots
One of the most popular phenomena regarding haunting and ghosting is called “cold spots”. As the name implies, those are the points of cold air that can be felt out of nowhere. Imagine that you are walking down a warm corridor and suddenly you can feel a cold space. You’re taking a few steps forward and it’s hot again. You’re going to come back, and the cold spot is still there. Cold spots are believed to be places where ghosts and spirits draw in psychic energies to sustain their own “life” energies. Just be careful not to consider air conditioning for paranormal activity please.
feeling the presence
Another way to detect the presence of ghosts would be to literally feel the presence of someone or something, when physically there is no one around, no people, no animals. As if you were in the kitchen, and out of nowhere you could feel that there is someone else in the room; you are looking around, but there is nothing but dinner on the table.
Humor changes
Ghosts and spirits, depending on their nature, can change the mood in a single room or the entire room. Imagine that you are watching a good comedy on television and suddenly you want to cry; could suggest that there is a sad spirit in the room. Spirits and ghosts can also create a happy mood or negative or even aggressive emotions.
moving objects
Some intelligent spirits (ie sentient ghosts) can move objects by unseen means. Different items can disappear and then appear in a completely different place, or ghosts can also move things around as you look at them (it’s an interesting sight, I have to admit).
Those are active forms of detection. You can also detect ghosts with passive means. For example, assuming that things like strange shadows or astral lights could suggest presence in the building. Sometimes also nightmares or obsessive thoughts and finally strange behaviors of animals can suggest some paranormal activity in your house.
As you can see, there are quite a few methods to detect the presence of ghosts and spirits. Keep them in mind, but remember to remain skeptical: not all air conditioners are ghosts.
