1.) Spirit Box
Link to Spirit Box ($89): https://amzn.to/4aDDl3Y
This is the particular device I use. I love that I can recharge it and it comes with a SD port should I want to record what is happening.
So What does a Spirit Box Do?
It is a radio but, this device has a unique modification that allows it to quickly scan through multiple stations simultaneously. Unlike traditional radios that tune into one station at a time, this radio continually scans. A ghost scanner radio is designed to continuously scan all available stations, both AM and FM, without pausing on any particular frequency.
2.) Noise Isolation Headphones
Vic Firth Bluetooth Isolation Headphones ($75) https://amzn.to/3UV8Z73
If you want to elevate your spirit box sessions, consider using headphones to try the Estes Method. The Estes Method involves a participant wearing noise-canceling headphones connected to the spirit box and a blindfold, allowing them to focus solely on the audio output without visual or auditory distractions. This can enhance the experience and potentially improve the clarity of any communications received.
3.) Boo Buddy Bear ($339)
This stuffed Bear has a EMF reader inside. It also talks and asks questions to the spirits and reacts when touched.

4.) EVP RECORDER AND CAT BALLS ( $33)
EVP (Electronic Voice Phenomenon) recordings are another critical tool in ghost hunting. By capturing audio that is often inaudible to the human ear during the investigation, EVP sessions can reveal voices or sounds that suggest communication from spirits. Using sensitive recording equipment, investigators ask questions and then review the recordings for any unexplained responses. EVPs provide a way to document and analyze potential interactions with spirits.
Cat balls offer immediate, visual cues of activity (kind like of a rem pod), while EVPs provide detailed, audible evidence that can be reviewed and analyzed post-investigation. These tools help create a comprehensive approach to detecting and documenting paranormal phenomena, making them indispensable in the field.
5.) K-II EMF Meter for Ghost Hunting ($13-$59)
The grey one I use is $59 and I feel it’s a bit sturdier than the black ones I see: https://amzn.to/3X2HJGF
But if you are on a budget you can definitely utilize the Black ones $12: https://amzn.to/3wH4d5h
What are K2 Meters?
K2 meters are designed to detect fluctuations in electromagnetic fields, which some ghost hunters believe are indicative of paranormal activity. These meters are sensitive to a wide range of EMF frequencies, making them useful for identifying both natural and artificial sources of EMF. The theory in ghost hunting is that spirits can influence or create disturbances in the electromagnetic field, and K2 meters can help detect these anomalies.
Best Practices:
- Control for Environmental Factors:
- Ensure you are aware of and can account for any natural sources of EMF in the area. This includes power lines, electrical panels, and other devices.
- Use with Other Tools:
- Combine K2 meter readings with other investigative tools like digital recorders for EVPs, infrared cameras, and motion detectors. This multimodal approach can provide a more reliable picture of potential paranormal activity.
How Does it Work
“The Polterscript converts environmental energy changes into words, letters, numbers and Yes and No replies that come through as VOICE and TEXT.
Library Mode: When the energy field is manipulated, words come through from the internal 2,300 word library. The three last words expressed, are kept in a dedicated area, displayed on the screen.
Alphabet Mode: When the energy field is manipulated, Letters, Numbers, and Yes and No replies are received through the Polterscript. ” – Ghost Hunters Equipment website

7.) REM PODS ($80-$179)
https://amzn.to/453ebuf
I’ve bought items for my REM pods at paranormal conventions and etsy, particularly in Salem and Tombstone, Arizona. Unfortunately, I haven’t found vendors with the exact items I purchased, such as a Raggedy Ann doll and a scare bear, on Etsy. However, I recommend looking up REM pods shaped like dolls or stuffed animals on Etsy, as these can help you communicate better with child spirits.
I believe that when a spirit that was once human encounters a familiar object, it can communicate more easily, regardless of whether the spirit is a child or an adult. It’s crucial to help spirits understand how to use the functional items we use for investigations. This process is much easier when the spirits recognize the objects, no matter their age.
UPDATE: I just got these pretty neat doll on etsy: https://www.etsy.com/shop/A68ParaTech?ref=shop-header-name&listing_id=1701080549&from_page=listing
WHAT IS A REMPOD?
A REM pod is a device used in paranormal investigations to detect and communicate with spirits. It operates using an electromagnetic field (EMF) to sense disturbances in its immediate surroundings.
1.) Electromagnetic Field Generation: The REM pod generates its own electromagnetic field around a central antenna. This field extends a few inches to several feet around the device, depending on its sensitivity setting.
2.) Auditory Alerts: In addition to visual indicators, the REM pod emits beeps or tones that vary in frequency or pattern based on the strength and location of the disturbance. This helps investigators know when and where a potential spirit is present.
3.) Interaction and Communication: Investigators use the REM pod to ask spirits yes/no questions or prompt them to interact with the device. For example, an investigator might say, “If you’re here, can you touch the antenna?” A response would be indicated by the lights and sounds on the REM pod.
PROTECTION AND DIVINATION TOOLS:
I always emphasize the importance of using divination tools during an investigation. If you’re familiar with my work and have been following me, you know that I strive for a balance between using these tools and other equipment. Sometimes, I find that divination tools are more accurate and better suited for communicating with the spirits present, as traditional equipment can sometimes overwhelm them. Here are some recommendations for tools and a book that I often suggest to others.
Additionally, protection is crucial. Always safeguard your devices by spraying them with Florida water or holy water and cleansing them with incense. This helps ensure that nothing negative attaches to your items and that they remain free from any unwanted energy.
1.) Frankincense ($9)
https://amzn.to/450O8UM
Frankincense has been used for centuries in spiritual practices for its powerful protective properties. It is known to banish and ward off negative energies and entities, creating a purified space that is conducive to positive spiritual communication. When you use frankincense to cleanse your devices, you help ensure that nothing negative attaches to your items.
2.) Selenite ($14)
https://amzn.to/44XdnqM
Cleansing and Purification
Selenite has the unique ability to cleanse and purify both the environment and other crystals or tools. By placing selenite near your divination tools, you can ensure that they remain free from any residual negative energy. This helps maintain the clarity and accuracy of the tools, ensuring that the messages received are not distorted by lingering negativity.
Enhancing Spiritual Communication
Selenite is known to enhance spiritual communication by opening the channels between the physical and spiritual realms. When used during an investigation, it can help facilitate clearer and more direct communication with spirits. This is particularly useful when using tools like tarot cards, pendulums, or spirit boxes, as selenite can help you receive more precise and insightful responses.
3.) Cascarilla 5 Pack ($7)
I prefer using cascarilla instead of salt, although salt is also effective. You can make a mixture of salt and water if you feel comfortable with it. I choose cascarilla because it’s less likely to damage surfaces and equipment. I apply it to my equipment, often with a symbol of protection. It’s crucial to set the intentions and protect your equipment before entering a space. Obviously its so important to protect yourself too!
Many people also use sage to protect themselves, but I like to explore alternatives. Frankincense and holy water are excellent for personal protection. Additionally, you can use holy water to cleanse and purify your equipment before entering a space.
4.) TAROT CARDS ($10)
https://amzn.to/4bQIre8
I’ve included a beginner’s guide to tarot for those looking to become more familiar with tarot reading.
Additionally, there are excellent oracle cards that can aid in mediumship.
https://amzn.to/3x1bJrz ($18)
I’m also linking to the book “Solitary Seance,” which offers fantastic methods and even a tarot card spread for communicating with spirits during an investigation.

5.) Pendulum and Board ( $6)
https://amzn.to/4bR4O35
Dowsing roads work similarly as well ($14) https://amzn.to/3yBeMax
A pendulum can be a valuable tool for spirit communication. It is small, cost effective and you can get pretty specific details. You can even use the tool to help you find items and even spirits.
Tips:
- Setting Intentions: Before starting, set your intentions clearly. Ask for protection and guidance, and specify that you wish to communicate with benevolent spirits.
- Calibrating the Pendulum: Establish the pendulum’s responses for “yes,” “no,” and “uncertain” answers. Typically, you can do this by asking the pendulum simple questions you know the answers to and observing its movements (e.g., back and forth for “yes,” side to side for “no”).
- Asking Questions: Hold the pendulum steady and ask your questions. The pendulum will swing in a specific direction to indicate the answer. It’s important to remain calm and focused during this process.
- Also a Pendulum Chart will help amp this up for more specific details https://amzn.to/3KnQ5kg ($35) I use this specific one for both spirit communication and self psychic work.
Now that I’ve discussed the equipment used for communicating with spirits—whether for paranormal investigations, divination, or protection—I want to mention some additional items I use for recording.
I’m a huge fan of DJI products and highly recommend them for their amazing quality. Additionally, I’ve been using lav mics for quite some time and strongly suggest you check them out.
