Plot: You are a teenager in a team of ghosthunters, a group called "the othersiders" (P.S. you may have seen this schow on cartoon network real) you go to places with reports of paranormal activity and see for yourself if ghosts are really there! (Please, don't say every place is haunted, base your desision on your characters invented experiences that should vary from intense to calm and very non sufficiant evidence.) you take cameras to a location and in the heart of the location set up a base camp. at least one person will remain there each time. then you set up camera's and look for ghosts! At the end of the hunt we will go back to "HQ" and each of us will give a peice of evidence we found, whether its a voice recording, a suspicious hot or cold spot on the thermal cameras, or a weird floating orb caught on tape then we will decide if its haunted by vote. (BTW guys, these are made up places and since they are made up we will make up whether we think its haunted or not)
Ghost Hunting Techniques: -Call and response, ask questions aloud to the ghosts while using a voice recorder to record and see if ghosts respond -Thermal camera, catches suspicious hot and cold spots since ghosts are known to take forms of hot and cold spots. - EMF detector, some say that spirits can disrupt or create electro magnetic feilds, The EMF detector can tell if a spirits energy is present. -Headset and walkie talkie, everyone will have one to communicate with one another - Night vision camera, all the cameras set up are night vision because these investigations take place in the dark - Flashlight and head mounted light, helps you see in the dark.
