How do you capture a ghost on camera?
Take pictures randomly about the area. If you plan to conduct your search in one specific area, take photos from as many angles as possible of that spot. Say out loud in a clear, calm tone “If anyone is here, I invite you to show yourselves in my pictures. Make sure to take several photos. Review your pictures to see if you caught anything. If you have photo editing software or app, it can be helpful to run the pictures through some filters in order to highlight unusual items.

Some things to look for are:
>Orbs – Some theorize these to be the simplest form of a disembodied soul, they are probably the most common captures. An orb usually looks like a white ball, however it can also be a different color. In most cases it is just a speck of dust or even an insect, so don’t get too excited about orbs unless you can be 100% sure there is something very strange about it. Most credible ghost hunting groups discount orbs due to the very high risk of them being easily explained.
>Human Forms – If you’re lucky, you may capture an apparition; these are actual bodies or body parts of ghosts. It takes a lot of energy for a ghost to appear like that.
>Thick Mist – Very thick mist-like shapes or streaks, often in very specific areas. Usually it’s very obviously not normal mist.
>Lights – Be sure you know where your light sources are (street lights, houses, etc) and that you can discount someone creating it. This is a controversial capture as many can be explained.
