This is one of my favorite subjects, Jessica! I'm glad you're hitting upon it. I started out with a camera and thermometer and then went mad and added on EMF meter, KII meter, video camera, barometer, voice recorder, dowsing rods, you name it! My hubby is an electrical engineer and rolled his eyes at the EMF meter. Without controlled conditions, it's really useless. I rather agree. The KII meter was worth it to me and that's probably because it can only go off right up against a plug outlet or switch. That way, I can use it in the middle of the room away from electrical and it's more accurate if it lights up. The voice recorder isn't successful for me and that's because I refuse to use any EVP that is not class A or B (obviously language) and because most locations are honestly too loud nowadays. Even indoors a home, someone outside can come through the bathroom ceiling vents and hood over the stove and through thin windows. I always say the best device for ghost hunting is still the human body. I know when to start recording and photographing when I get those sensations. Everyone knows them; they're hairs standing on end, breathlessness, crushing head and chest, pressure in the ears. I too am a lover of history and dark creepy places which is probably why I stop at ever abandoned place I can find. I love to touch the place and walk it and feel the good and bad memories of it. The hunting part came across because I wished to find proof for others who haven't experienced it, but honestly if the ghost hunting shows can't capture it with all their freaking cameras and witnesses, what chance do I have? Now, I look for experiences that confirm my theories and satisfy my mind and curiosity. I'll let others find their own experiences that make them go "aha!" Fantastic post, by the way.

You forgot psychic! lol

I guess I didn't realize I have six of the things on this list already. Sweet! The only things I'm missing are the most expensive stuff: an E.V.P. recorder, and an E.M.F. detector though like autumnforest suggested, I think I'd rather pick up a KII meter. Would love to have an IR motion detector and FLIR camera but that isn't going to happen anytime soon.

Now all I need is a haunt spot.

I was going to add the psychic to my list, but I couldn't find one on so I figured it would be unrealistic for my list. I think I may let the E.M.F. go for the KII meter too The biggest thing I think I'm going to buy is a video camera.
