Laser Grid for Ghost Hunting – The Latest Must Have in Paranormal Equipment! Recently on an airing of the ghost investigation television show called, Ghost Hunters, we watched the investigators set-up a “laser grid” in a hallway in order to detect movement. We first wondered if this idea might even work, but according to the paranormal teams who have used a laser light on a ghost hunt, they claim they work very well.

How the Laser Grid Might Actually Work to Detect Ghosts The green laser is distributed through an optical glass lens which can be adjusted by turning it to scatter the beam into various patterns of light. By placing the green laser so it casts the user's preferred grid pattern of dots into the haunted environment, a video camera mounted on a tripod can be used to help monitor and record any movement within the laser grid pattern. This could prove extremely helpful in cases of haunting where moving shadows are prominent.

It seems shadow ghosts may be able to interfere with the pattern more than other type of anomalies though it is possible that apparitions and moving orbs might also be detectable. Shadowed forms of people have often been witnessed stopping a flashlight from shining through them. We can only speculate on how such a dark shadow might behave within a laser light pattern. Ghosts can vary in the depth of darkness. Will the laser shine through some

ghosts while stopping on the darker mass of others? Even though a ghost in its most visible manifestation might appear solid, it does not mean it will completely block out the laser grid lights when moving through them. However, we believe good videos of the green laser dots being disrupted by ghostly anomalies exist.
Suggestions on How to Use the Laser Grid to See Ghosts As previously mentioned, we feel the best benefit of the laser is to detect movement. Therefore, it is important to use a tripod when video recording or photographing the laser grid. Otherwise, any slight movement of the camera or video recorder will show the laser dots in motion. The green dots themselves would not be moving, but the moving camera can still create the effect of motion. The power of the laser grid within ghost investigation is the idea that some of the dots might be altered while the rest remain stationary. Visual disturbances that might not normally be seen may now become visible. Be sure not to cast the grid on something that is potentially movable such as curtains or clothes swinging in a closet. The best bet might be to cast a laser grid to detect ghosts that typically travel down a hallway or across it while moving from room to room. We recommend using a lower-powered laser (5mW) which will cast plenty of dots and be less dangerous should a person happen to walk into them by accident. Lasers shining into eyes can do permanent damage.

Where to Buy a Laser Grid Light It's important to make sure you purchase a laser grid with a clamp in order to keep the laser's "on button" depressed. You can find the light with clamp at the Fringe Tech Ghost Hunting Store.
