The Television Made Me Do It: Avoiding Ghost Hunting Mistakes

I am back from hiatus. Today I discuss the importance of pursuing educational studies as it pertains to paranormal investigations as well as not focusing on what you see on television as an ample representation of a scientific paranormal investigation. We also discuss the future of the Mount Washington Valley SPIRIT Podcast. A nearly identical transcript of this episode may be found at https://www.mwvspirit.com/blog/2022/10/20/back-from-hiatus/ As a paranormal investigator, Eric Extreme has decades of experience. He focuses on the scientific study of perceived paranormal phenomena. In this podcast, he discusses the methods and tools used in investigations, exploring how factors like cognitive biases, environmental conditions, and technological anomalies can influence perceptions of the paranormal. His approach is to identify natural causes first before considering any paranormal explanations. With years of research and fieldwork behind him, he offers insights into how these phenomena can be studied objectively, based on evidence. The goal is to help listeners understand how to approach paranormal investigations focused on science, distinguishing between what can be explained and what cannot. As he always says, ”Science comes before the spooky.” Mount Washington Valley SPIRIT (Scientific Paranormal Investigations, Research, and Interpretation Team) Book: https://www.ApparitionOfThePast.com Homepage: https://www.MWVSpirit.com Podcast: https://mwvspirit.podbean.com IMDb: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt16150782 YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@mwvspirit Blog: https://www.MWVSpirit.com/blog Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/MWVSpirit Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/MWVSpirit Threads: https://www.threads.com/@mwvspirit X: https://x.com/mwvspirit LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/mwvspirit TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@mwvspirit Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/mwvspirit.bsky.social Pinterest: https://www.pinterest.com/mwvspirit/ Quora: https://www.quora.com/profile/Mount-Washington-Valley-SPIRIT Substack: https://substack.com/@mountwashingtonvalleyspirit Tumblr:https://mountwashingtonvalleyspirit.tumblr.com
