Trigger Objects
Trigger objects are items placed on a white A4 paper with a thin line drawn around the item, this is then placed in an area of possible activity.
This exercise is to try and provoke a possible ghost / spirit to move these objects, thus indicating a possible and active haunting.
A voice activated tape recorder is used to record any unusual sounds in and around the area of the object.
It is preferred that the trigger objects used are relevant to the site of investigation, e.g. crucifix &/or a bible would be placed at a religious site e.g. an abbey, whilst keys would be better placed in a jail etc.
Below are some images of trigger objects used during Ngrit-UK's paranormal investigations.
