Episode Description
Can ghost hunting equipment actually detect paranormal activity, or are investigators sometimes using these tools the wrong way?
In this special extended episode of Talking Strange, host Aaron Sagers sits down with paranormal researcher, equipment builder, and science communicator Lauren Hellekson (LaurenHaunts.com) for a deep dive into the technology behind modern paranormal investigations.
Together, they break down some of the most popular ghost hunting tools, including digital voice recorders, thermal and infrared cameras, SLS devices, EMF meters, REM Pods, proximity sensors, smartphone apps, and more. Lauren explains what these devices were actually designed to do, how investigators commonly use and misuse them, and practical tips for collecting better evidence in the field.
Featured in the BeaconTV documentary series The Bridge Between Dimensions and currently studying Physics and Astronomy, Lauren brings a rare combination of hands-on paranormal experience and scientific perspective to the conversation.
Whether you're a seasoned investigator or just getting started, this episode is an essential guide to paranormal equipment.
