Animals can pick up infrasound in ways that humans can’t. Scientists believe that this might be how many animals can sense natural disasters. [3] X Research source Building an infrasonic microphone. The antenna itself has to be bought, but these are easy to find at an electronics store and relatively inexpensive. Once you have the microphone, get a glass jar with the diameter of 2. 25 inches (5. 7 cm). Stretch a 12 inch (30. 5 cm) balloon over the touch. Cut off the part of the balloon which you use to inflate it, and tape the rest tightly and without wrinkles to the jar. Tape an NdFeB type magnet of 1⁄2 inch (1. 3 cm) to 1 inch (2. 5 cm) diameter magnet of 5000 gauss or more (you can get this from Walmart). You will need an oscilloscope to convert the electrical signals into waveform patterns. These are more expensive, but can be found for about $45 on eBay.

Often ghost sightings are simply light bouncing off of a reflective surface in an unusual way. Human sight and senses are incredibly error prone, so it can be difficult to trust what your eyes might be telling you without serious further investigation.
Likewise, try to have someone confirm your experience. If you’re the only one seeing or sensing anything, that’s the best time to get psychiatric evaluation. If others experience the possible haunting as well, look first to other natural causes.
Use a record player to try to communicate with the haunting. Ask it questions and record it to see if the ghost answers. It won’t always, but you may be given some sort of message which can help with getting rid of it. You will want to ask easy questions with simple answers, usually yes or no. This is simplest if you try to communicate with the ghost by asking questions and having it answer with knocking. Ask it to use one knock for yes and two knocks for no. Take photos of the areas where you experience the haunting to see if anything turns up in the final image. Use a flash when you’re in a dark space, like a room, otherwise your camera will only capture darkness. Otherwise, it is best to rely on natural lighting so that lens flare doesn’t confuse you. Remember that often ghostly seeming orbs and other phenomena are often simply dust on the camera lens, or light refracting from dust particles in the air.
If you can find a reputable ghost hunter or psychic, talk to them about what you’ve discovered and see what they think. If you can afford it, have them come to your house and see what they can find separate from your experiences.
If you talk to the ghost, use a no-nonsense tone of voice, as you would with a misbehaving animal. Be stern, but not mean. Ghosts may be the left-over spirits of other people. The fact that they are dead might already be traumatizing to the ghost.
In Hinduism reaching the 3rd, 7th and 9th chapter of the Bhagavad Gita and offering the result to the ghost it will help release them from their bondage. Likewise, chanting mantras, keeping holy pictures of deities or burning incense offered during a Puja can help release the trapped spirit. The Jewish ritual helps both the possessed and the possessor find healing. The ritual should only be performed by a rabbi who has mastered practical Kabbalah. There are a variety of banishing rituals for all cultures and religions so you should be able to find one that suits your need. These rituals take into account different culture’s views on ghosts and the afterlife, as there is no one true doctrine on ghosts.
Burn sage or cedar. This is said to clear negative energy and burning incense is considered a purifying force in many cultures. Ring a bell in each corner of your home. This is said to break up the negative energy and encourage positive energy. It is important to do this more than once as negative energy can come from many different sources. Physically clean your home. This will help to create an atmosphere of cleanliness and to discourage negative energy from coming back.
