SOME DANGERS OF DOING PARANORMAL INVESTIGATIONS

    in this post i would like to touch on some of the dangers that come with doing paranormal investigations, in particular ghost hunts. there are many people that will go on a ghost hunts or join a paranormal team with out really thinking about the dangers that can go along with it. some do it just to get a scare. some do it for the " thrill of the hunt " . and some  do it just because it seems like a fun this to do. others do it because they want to know more about the paranormal and understand it better.whatever your reasons are you must understand that there are dangers that go along with it.one if the most common dangers of paranormal investigations is getting " attacked " during the investigations. most of the time these " attacks " will show up as scratch marks or bruises. some times you will feel them sometimes you won't. above there are 2 pictures  from when i was " attacked ". the first one is a picture of a bruise that showed up after our second trip to the salt lake city and county building . the second is from a private home investigation in midvale , Utah. you can see what appears to be 3 scratch marks. some other dangers of doing paranormal investigations is that a spirit could attach to you and follow you home, although this is rare it is still possible. another way that the paranormal can  " attack  " is mentally and emotionally. which means you might start having nightmares after you have been on a ghost hunt, or even become depressed. or it could actually make you sick. most of the time this types of " attacks " are focused towards those who are already in a"weakened state ".  i am in no way wanting to discourage anyone from taking part in  paranormal investigations, i however i am encouraging those that want to take part in them to do your research first so you know what you are getting into. the paranormal is something that should not be taken lightly. also before and after you get done a  investigation take precautions to protect your self. this could be anything from wearing a religious symbol, saying a prayer ...etc. what is comfortable for you .and i would highly recommend that if you are sick, depressed or in any other kind of " weakened state " do not engage in a type of paranormal investigation until you recover from it.
