Getting started as an investigator
New to paranormal research? Start with the basics: a quality voice recorder (even a phone works), an EMF meter ($20–50), and a notebook. Document everything — time, location, weather, your emotional state.
The most important tool is your own awareness and willingness to observe without judgment.
