Our Views & Concepts Just because it looks haunted does not make it FACT . Skeptical Investigation- The link between truth and imagination. Not all believers, believe in everything. Rely on basic psychology to eliminate expert exaggeration. Common Sense can not light up, see in the dark or be measured by a meter. Interviewing clients- Classify a "want" verses "need". Preserving History, one story at a time. Eliminate hysteria and fear, 99% of the time it can be explained. Rational Thinking No psychics, no impressions. Our goal is to educate, not to impress. GHOULI actually debunks rumored hauntings in Oklahoma. What does GHOULI do while on an investigation?
After initial contact of a lead, we will follow up with a few telephone interviews. We then set up a time and date to come out and conduct a Preliminary Investigation. Preliminaries usually last about 1 to 3 hours depending on activity. Data is collected, and then analyzed then the team decides on whether or not a full investigation is in need. If evidence is collected we will then share the findings with the property owners. Then organize the full investigation. Full investigations usually have the entire team (according to location size) and all of our equipment on hand. Full investigations can take from 3 to 6 hours or more depending on the size of the property. We keep our team small, so there will never be a lot of people at your investigation. We enter your property without preconceived notions of collecting paranormal evidence. We offer a skeptical opinion about your property. GHOULI will debunk your haunted property. Offering a skeptical outlook towards paranormal claims . GHOULI works with property owners to not stigmatize property. Do you travel?
The answer is yes. We will travel anywhere depending on the case |
