ALL ABOUT THE VIRGINIA INFANTRY GHOST HUNTERS
The Virginia Infantry
Ghost Hunters
The
Virginia Infantry Ghost Hunters
Our
purpose is capture through our recorders, cameras and personal
experience those spirits still remaining on the numerous battlefields at
Gettysburg and share them with you. We are not here to mock or criticize or
display those brave men and women in any way, but to show respect they
well deserve. Their courage and devotion
alone show us that their dedications has earned a place of honor in each
of our hearts.
Whenever the occasion arises try
through the aid of a Psychic help put their spirits to rest. Many
countless spirits are roaming the Battlefields day and night aimlessly
for one reason or another. We understand that Gettysburg is the
most spiritually active location in the United States. This we can
confirm with our many return visits.
Excessive Spiritual activity is
evident at Gettysburg by the numerous photographs posted here on this
site.......As Orbs. Although by other groups these so called Orbs
may be termed as dust, though the shape of dust is irregular and the
movement is erratic this is not so with Orbs they are usually perfect
circles with a center composition sometimes with the face of a lost one and travel with a controlled movement.
With popular belief spirits draw
energy from where ever it can, to further prove this many of our visits
were when it was either raining or snowing. It is not difficult to
know which is rain or snow by the trails photographed by Orbs moving
upward. May I repeat moving upward, rain and snow do not move
upward and there is no dust when it's raining or snowing. To get a
fuller definition of what Orbs are is described below.
WHAT ARE EVPS?
EVP:
Electronic Voice Phenomena are electronically
captured sounds that resemble speech, but are not
the result of intentional voice recordings.
Not usually heard without the aid of some type of
Recording Device. Common
sources include static, stray radio transmissions
and background noise.
Some people claim these sounds
are of
paranormal origin, while there are natural
explanations such as
apophenia (finding significance in insignificant
phenomena), auditory
pareidolia (interpreting random sounds as voices
in their own language), equipment artifacts, or
simple hoaxes. Recordings of electronic voice
phenomena are often created from background sound by
increasing the gain (i.e. sensitivity) of the
recording equipment.
In simple terms, EVPs: Are
Spirits speaking within White Noise.

popular theoryproposes
orbs are a form

ghosts in order to show themselves.
Orbs sometimes appear to be in
motion, leaving a trail behind them.
Apparent in variable size, most often they appear in shades of
white; however, on rare occasions they may take on different colors.
WHO DETERMINED WHAT
THE COLORS MEAN?
Although the suggested meanings are a
compiled consensus of several different color interpretations.
Although accurate, additional research is needed to verify their
meanings, and it must be noted that each is open to individual
interpretation.
