What equipment does it take to root out a ghost, discover an apparition, find an ethereal being? Stacy Perkins can tell you. She spoke at the Ada Public Library on Saturday morning, telling of paranormal finds that she and three other Ghost Gals from Lima have discovered the past six years.
To search out paranormal activity one needs a Boo Bear, a stuffed animal that reads room temperature and movement as well as talks, trying to get the ghost to talk back. Put a recorder by Boo Bear’s feet and you’ve capture what the ghost says.
The Ohio Paranormal Ghost Gals will present a program on their paranormal investigations when they speak at the Ada Public Library on Saturday. The Lima women, known as Ghost Gals, will talk about their findings, how they investigate paranormal occupancies, and what equipment they use at the 11 a.m. program.
They investigate for free. If interested in having them check out an old house, outbuilding, or property, call 419-234-1717.
