Ghost Hunting Question Options

Okay so I was thinking about going on some "ghost hunting" trips here this year and thought I would throw the idea out here first. The thing is that even though I practice reaching out to various entities and such I don't generally get the best or most reliable results at all. Certainly nothing evocation wise, but that's because I don't do it. Anyway I was thinking it might be easier to work in the right direction if I could practice communication in some way with ghosts and such. I see this as sort of trying to learn to operate a cell phone (ie magic) but not knowing if I am dialing right because even when I do dial right no one is at the other end. So why not go where someone might pick up?

Anyway Ohio is home to a bunch of supposedly haunted places and I'm sure I could do this with friends (who are in no way interested with magic at all but would go anyway I'm sure). So I am wondering has anyone else done anything like this? Any advice, comments, or thoughts?

I have no idea where this would take place yet but if I plan now this could easily become a reality for the upcoming summer.



EDIT: oh and I hope I posted this in the right area...

^ the tape recorder idea is great, I hadn't thought of it (even though I'm sure I've seen it on tv a thousand times). Was the voice you got responding to something you were doing or was it more just that you were in the right place at the right time?

In the case of the ghost...it appeared to be responding to something in the environment. There were several pet birds in the house, and the voice said "do you hear the birdies?" It had long been thought that the ghost of a young child was in the house.

In the case of the...malefic spirit...who knows why it was screaming.

...nice to see you around here again, btw...
