One of the main reasons for ghosthunting is to have
encounters with
ghosts. Sometimes however, the hunter can become
the hunted.
Graveyards are notorious for harboring ghosts. Are
they the spirits
of the dead that are buried there? Some spirits
will remain in close
proximity to their earthly remains in the hope they
can re-enter
that physical body and use it in the same way they
did in life.
Unfortunately, they cannot do this unless they are
what we refer to
as the "undead," the "sorcerer," the "Black
Magician."
The man who hunts tigers at times has found that
the tiger
backtracks and is now hunting the hunter. The same
is true with
spirits. Graveyards are spawning places for evil
spirits. Most of
these spirits are inhuman (diabolical). They are
drawn to areas
where human suffering has occurred. These areas are
full of
vibrations of the tormented people who have lost
their loved ones,
and the unfortunate human spirits that are
earthbound hover close to
their remains. Evil spirits revel in the
deterioration of human
bodies; those bodies which God created. They are
the dangers in the
exploration of evidence that we, the living, must
encounter.
We must be extremely careful of not becoming the
hunted. How do we
accomplish this? By using the knowledge that the
enlightened
ghosthunter must know. The enlightened ghosthunter
envisions himself
in a bright white glowing "Christ light" of
protection before he or
she ever enters any known haunted area or house. He
or she asks for
the protection of God and all that is angelic. But
remember that
these protective measures are only as effective and
as powerful as
the ghosthunter's belief in them.
New truths, new discoveries, can sometimes only be
found through
dangerous encounters. We as hunters of ghosts are
visible. We are
tangible. We are vulnerable. The ghost has the
upper hand for it can
see what we do not, it can hear what we cannot. It
can perform feats
we cannot. The ghost can come to us any time it
wants. It strikes
when the time is most opportune for it to do so
(usually the psychic
hours of the night between 9 p.m. and 6 a.m.).
So, if you want to hunt ghosts you must know your
opponent. You must
respect its powers. The person who makes
statement's such as "I'm
not afraid of ghosts," had better think twice about
encountering
one. Knowledge is a weapon but remember- fools rush
in where wise
men fear to tread. Don't be a fool. Be a survivor
and an intelligent
researcher. Help those who are in the spirit world
(earth bound
spirits). Help the living reach a better
understanding of that
supernatural world we will all enter some day.
I have been in this work of exploration for more
years than I care
to remember. I am happy to say I still am. It has
been exciting,
frightening, and even funny at times but it has
never been boring.
So I continue to explore, to delve, to research. I
am happy in the
knowledge that I have found the secret of life. It
is that we
survive what many believe to be the end, when in
reality it is just
