Frequently Asked Questions
1. HOW DO I BECOME A MEMBER OF THE PARANORMAL SEEKERS?
The Paranormal Seekers is a closed membership group. This means that to become a member you must apply and go through an interview process in order to be considered part of the team.
2. HOW DO I APPLY TO BECOME A MEMBER?
The Paranormal Seekers advertise on the website and social media pages when we are looking to add new members. This usually happens at the beginning of the new year and never around Halloween. All requirements will be posted in these advertisements.
3. HOW MUCH DO YOU CHARGE FOR INVESTIGATIONS?
The Paranormal Seekers operate as a non-profit team. This means that our investigations are free of charge to locations.
4. DO YOU ACCEPT DONATIONS?
Yes, we do accept donations. If you wish to donate to The Paranormal Seekers, please contact Rachel through email at info@theparanormalseekers.ca
5. HOW DO YOU GET INTO THE PLACES YOU'VE INVESTIGATED?
There are many ways that The Paranormal Seekers gain access to the places we've investigated. Many times we contact the places directly and ask about coming in. Sometimes locations contact us and ask us to visit and investigate. Word of mouth plays a big role, as well as research.
6. DO YOU ALWAYS FIND EVIDENCE OF ACTIVITY DURING AN INVESTIGATION?
Not every investigation will bring about evidence. Places that are deemed “very haunted” may also be quiet and we may find nothing. Ghosts and spirits are not performers. They will not entertain our questions or equipment if they don’t want to.
7. DO YOU DO PUBLIC EVENTS?
Yes we do! Throughout the year we do many events that the public can attend. These range from private functions to presentations, trade shows, events and even investigations that the public can join in on. Some events are put on by other organizations that ask us to attend and be a part of, while we personally put on others. Pricing for these events are determined by the locations - we do not decide on the costs.
8. WHAT EQUIPMENT DO YOU USE?
We use a variety of equipment during investigations. Sometimes not every piece gets used. We currently have the following in our cases – A DVR camera system, Night-vision HD video cameras, digital cameras, audio recorders, REM pods, K2 Meters, P-SB7 and P-SB11 Ghost Boxes, Ovilus 3 and Ovilus 5, Digital thermometers, Boo Buddy, Paranormal Music Box, SLS camera, Teddy Pod, Flux 2, 360 Puck, Tempest, EMF Trip Wire, Laser grid, and Necrophonic.
9. ARE YOU STRICTLY BASED IN THE GREATER TORONTO AREA (GTA) OR DO YOU GO TO OTHER PLACES IN ONTARIO?
Even though our base is in Durham Region, we actually travel throughout Ontario to visit and investigate haunted locations. We are also willing to travel Canada and the United States if the opportunities present.
