EVP research devices are just another word for a spirit box and are used to capture and analyze “electronic voice phenomena,” or EVP. These devices are typically used by paranormal investigators to communicate with spirits or ghosts. EVP research devices usually consist of a digital recorder and an audio playback device.

Also known as a spirit box, this device rapidly sweeps AM radio channels to interpret the white noise. Some paranormal investigators believe ghosts communicate via the white noise. The ghost boxes allegedly give investigators immediate answers.

Although not a must-have, we believe that advanced ghost hunters may actually benefit from using a Spirit Box. Spirit Boxes (or Ghost Boxes) scan radio frequencies, creating a din of white noise. Users can then simply listen for voices, or yell questions out loud and listen for an answer.
