Haunt phenomena have been described as anomalous visual, auditory, or tactile experiences: sensed presences, sudden onset of emotional experiences (fear, sadness, depression, or anger), erratic functioning of electrical or mechanical equipment, and object movement in certain environments.
MESA, the Multi-frequency Energy Sensor Array, is a portable data acquisition and analysis system that simultaneously measures a variety of energies commonly associated with haunt phenomena, and has been used at over 150 survey sites. At present, the system collects data on incident infrared, visible, and ultraviolet light intensities; natural and artifically generated electromagnetic fields, gamma ray radiation, galvanic skin response of a human subject, infrasound, and vibration. MESA researchers also deploy digital still and video cameras, a unique two-camera system connected to a magnetometer, as well as audio recording - all to document haunt phenomena. We continue to seek out locations purported to have haunt and poltergeist activity.
