Each ghost leaves three distinct traces. Use the appropriate equipment to gather evidence:

  • Laser Projector: Reveals ghosts as silhouettes.
  • Handprints: Blacklight reveals fingerprints/handprints/footprints.
  • Spirit Box: Interact to elicit responses (multiple attempts may be needed).
  • EMF Level 5: EMF reader; full illumination indicates a specific ghost type.
  • Ghost Orb: Video camera captures ghostly orbs.
  • Freezing Temps: Thermometer detects significantly low temperatures.
  • Ghost Writing: Spirit book records ghostly writings.
