Fact or Fiction: Ghost Detector Smartphone Apps

Do ghost detector apps really work?

I never thought I'd actually have to write this article, honestly...

There are a ton of free and paid ghost radar and communication apps out there for both Android and iPhone users, and are popular with paranormal enthusiasts, as well as anyone looking for a creepy-fun time.

Chris and I tested one out while at Kings Park Psychiatric Center, and based on our evidence, I can confidently say they are a load of CRAP.

Here's why:
1) I recorded clear EVP with my camera while the app said there were no ghosts in the area.
2) Your phone was not built to pick up these kinds of readings that the apps claim.

While yes, sometimes they have an uncanny ability to 'know' what's going on around you (GPS?), but just like a cold reader trying to pass off as a 'psychic', it's a series of hits and misses. People are naturally going to pay attention to the 'hits' and ignore the 'misses', and assume it's something otherworldly, because that's what they want to believe.

In our experience, the 'ghost' couldn't use the app to communicate, and instead used our traditional, well known method- speaking to my camera.

So don't believe the hype, and certainly don't waste your money. These apps can be fun to play with, but are anything but accurate.
