What Ghost Hunting Equipment Should Every Ghost Hunter Have?

Ghost hunting equipment can be useful in any haunted setting.

Some researchers confirm anomalies using cameras, EVP recorders, digital thermometers, compasses, EMF devices, and so on.

Others focus on psychic readings with Tarot cards or other divinatory tools.

Some people use dowsing rods and pendulums, which some claim are psychic tools, while other point to their scientific support.

(I no longer recommend any divinatory tools, including dowsing rods and pendulums, except to rule out underground streams or electrical wiring that could produce false anomalies. Since 2021, there’s been a dramatic uptick in demon-like activity in connection with divination, and not just Ouija boards.)

But, the question remains:

**What tools must every beginner have for ghost hunting?**

Here’s my answer: Nothing!

You need no special equipment, not even a camera.

You don’t need special training, either.

Really.

If you’re a beginner – or just curious – you should be able to show up at a place that’s haunted and sense something odd there.

That’s what ghost hunting is.

You go to places that might be haunted, and see if you sense anything odd there.

If it doesn’t make sense or can’t be explained, it’s called an anomaly.

The more often you go on ghost hunts, the more sensitive you’ll become to ghostly anomalies. It’s that simple.

What to Expect on a Ghost Hunt

On a successful ghost hunt, you may experience an eerie feeling, a chill, or hair lifting on the back of your arms.

Some people hear things, which can range from noises that everyone hears – tapping, for example.

You may hear strange sounds that no one else does.

(Here’s a good way to ask others about it, without tipping your hand: Ask “Did you notice anything odd?” or “Did you hear something?”)

Some people receive strong impressions, or see something flicker, off to one side. Or, they may detect a perfume or an aroma.

Any of the five senses can be involved, or you may have a ‘sixth sense’ experience.

Those are the experiences that will make the biggest impressions. That’s what confirms that a site really is haunted.

Never feel that you must own or invest in ghost hunting equipment.

Sure, your phone may have a great camera for ghost hunting. Or a voice recorder for EVP.

But what if it doesn’t…? Or what if your phone quits working at a haunted site? (It happens, often. Some of us blame that on quirky EMF levels.)

Just go and enjoy the ghost hunt!

Ghost Hunting is About Observing

On 90% of investigations, ghost hunting is about the experience.

When you’re ready to add ghost hunting equipment – and you never have to – go slowly.

Experiment. Borrow others’ equipment for a few minutes on a ghost hunt. See if it works for you.

Some people never seem to get anything interesting in photos or videos.
Others see no results with EMF detectors.
Me…? I’ve never had much success with EVP. I have a voice recorder for ghost hunting but rarely use it.

No two researchers are the same. Don’t invest in equipment unless you’re sure that it’s useful for you.

Meanwhile, don’t worry that you’re missing out on anything.

ALL You Need is an Interest in Ghosts

There are no tools and there is no training that you absolutely must have to be a successful ghost hunter.

Sure, courses can help shorten your trial-and-error phase, and you can learn from team leaders and even ghost hunting TV shows.

However, I want to make this very clear: You need no equipment at all to be a successful ghost hunter.

Just get out there with a friend or two. Start investigating.

No tools. Just your five (or six) senses.

That’s all.

With each investigation, you’ll become more accomplished as a ghost hunter.

Here’s an “insider” secret.

Many – perhaps most – professionals in this field aren’t impressed when someone talks about their ghost hunting equipment.

First tell us what you experienced. Then – and only then – if you have EVP to share, or you can describe simultaneous EMF spikes, or have other evidence to support what you witnessed, we’re interested.

What matters is when you can state confidently, “This is what happened,” and then tell us the story.

Ghost hunting equipment going wonky…? It could mean anything.

Or it might mean something we can’t fully understand, yet…

What matters is your experience.

And, for that, you don’t need ghost hunting equipment.

Houston, TX – Haunted Bear Creek Bridge

Haunted Patterson Road in Houston, Texas, is next to Bear Creek Park between Highway 6 and Eldridge Road. [Google Maps: Patterson Road – Bear Creek Park]

Ghosts of Bear Creek Bridge It follows the route used by Civil War soldiers. The battle took place in the southeastern quadrant of Bear Creek Park.

According to folklore, those soldiers’ ghosts still march along Patterson Road at night.

If you stop on the road, they’ll tap on your car.

That’s the legend.

Of course, YOU SHOULD NOT DO THAT.

This area was once a farming community of German immigrants and their descendants.

Today, it is part of Addicks Reservoir and Bear Creek Pioneers Park, in Harris County, Houston.

There are two bridges on Patterson Road by Bear Creek Park.

One is Langham Creek Bridge, near Eldridge Road.

The other is Bear Creek Bridge, closer to Highway 6.

Are the legends true?

Bear Creek Bridge isn’t supposed to be haunted.

I disagree.

In daylight, Bear Creek Bridge feels far more eerie than the other bridge on Patterson Road.

In May 2005, using the “sparkles” camera, two of us – during an informal evening of ghost hunting – saw visible anomalies at the Bear Creek bridge.

We saw none at Langham Creek on that same evening, though we did capture some strange mists in our photos.

This orb is probably an insect.

I took this photo at Bear Creek bridge. As you can tell from the grain in the photo, it was a very dark evening. To see anything in the picture, I lightened it considerably in Photoshop.

I’ve included the image – and some trees around it – in case anyone else captures a clear anomaly in a ghost photo at that same location.

Likely insect at Bear Creek bridge

After, we paused on that bridge, testing the “tapping Civil War soldiers” legend.

This is important: We only paused.

You should not stop there. You probably shouldn’t even pause on that bridge.

Definitely do NOT turn off your engine or your car’s headlights.

Tapping on my car

With my car windows open, I heard three rapid, distinct and clear taps on the car, immediately below my outside mirror.

The tapping sounds was like metal on metal, similar to my car antenna tapping my car roof when I’m driving on a very bumpy road.

It didn’t sound unearthly.

I have no explanation for the tapping, since the car window was fully open and I could see the side of the car easily.

In fact, I looked out of the car right away, to see what caused the noise. I saw nothing unusual at all: No insects, no animals, and nothing brushing against the car.

It was too loud to be the car or the bridge settling.

I was in the driver’s seat, so my door was towards the center of the bridge.

There was no likelihood of shrubbery, vines, or branches hitting the car.

I had no explanation.

In my experience, most paranormal encounters are very different from anything “normal.”

That’s why it took me awhile to accept that something so loud (and apparently mundane) could have been ghostly.

The taps sounded entirely real, normal, and I wanted to know who’d tapped on my car with something like a metal baton.

It probably took me close to five minutes to realize that there was no normal explanation for what had happened.

I did exactly what I’m telling you NOT to do: I stopped on a road at night.

It was a spooky experience, but incredibly stupid as well.

Don’t be another “weird” statistic.

Since writing this, I’ve learned that there are an unusual number of car accidents in that area, and not just among ghost enthusiasts.

Some people speculate that there’s “bad energy” around Bear Creek Park.

I’m not sure about that, but I can confirm that something taps on cars on Patterson Road.

Don’t try this yourself. Please, just take my word for it.

Or, park farther up the street.

Hike to a point where you can safely observe the bridge. And then, pay attention to cars passing over it, and any anomalies you notice.

Houston, TX – Haunted Patterson Road

Patterson Road in Houston, Texas may be haunted. This road borders Bear Creek Park and runs between Highway 6 and Eldridge Road. [Google Maps]

Haunted Patterson Road, Houston, TX It’s a lovely location. Arrive in the afternoon and plan a picnic or barbecue in the park. Visit the zoo, read the historical markers, and get a sense of the landscape and its heritage.

Some of Bear Creek Park’s ghost stories are related to Civil War activity.

Others are from 1900, when the infamous hurricane displaced an entire community. After that, county workers literally changed the landscape to prevent future disasters.

Homes were lost. Landmarks and memorials vanished. The area was safer from future floods, but at a terrible cost.

After a heavy rainstorm, this location still floods before other areas. Always check road conditions before driving to Bear Creek Park.

Marching in the woods

Much of Bear Creek Park is overgrown with dense foliage. At night, frogs make noise too loud to ignore.

You’ll hear other sounds in the woods, too. They’re probably woodland animals, but they are very odd noises.

To some, they sound like people marching or trudging. Lots of people, and heavy steps. Soldiers…? People fleeing the hurricane that came in from Galveston?

No one knows.

That’s why, one evening in early May 2005, two of us investigated Patterson Road.

First, we visited it during the day, to check it for EMF, and so we’d be familiar with anything odd – but easily debunked – after dark.

Compass anomalies at Langham Creek bridge

Right away, we saw anomalous needle swings in excess of 30 degrees on the right side of the Langham Creek bridge as you’re facing Eldridge Road.

That’s significant. The most likely explanation was EMF, but we couldn’t find a logical source. That area is very rural.

Most of our daytime photos were normal, except at this location:

Patterson Road, Langham Area — Photo at Langham Creek. Everything’s crisp except a white mist in the upper left corner.

Close-up Langham Creek mist — Arrow points to white mist in my photo, similar to a mist in others’ photos, taken at the same time. (Photo lightened for this website.)

The sun was quickly setting when I took this photo with a digital camera.

There was no light to create that “misty” effect at the upper left corner of the photo. There was no fog, no rain… nothing to account for that mist.

Could it have been breath? Possibly, except that others have captured a similar white mist at that same stand of trees.

So, we have no reliable explanation.

I have no idea if any “hanging tree” legends exist at that location.

One friend – more familiar with the area – said he’d heard that kind of legend, related to a soldier who wanted to desert his military group. But he wasn’t certain of the exact location.

Langham Creek soldiers?

Langham Creek, Houston, TX — Signs at Langham Creek, Houston, Texas

Langham Creek bridge has the most haunted reputation.

According to local legends, ghosts of Civil War soldiers tap on your car if you park on the bridge with your lights out.

**I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS!**

Patterson Road is busy at night with sporting events at nearby Bear Creek Park. Traffic is intermittent, and some people drive faster than they should.

In other words, it’s a dangerous place to stop your car.

But, yes… on that evening, we did pause on the bridge after dark. (Our headlights remained on.)

At that bridge, we heard tapping noises.

All of it could be explained by the car settling and the bridge shifting slightly under the weight of the car.

So, please do NOT pause your car on Langham Creek bridge, or on any road, with your lights off.

Our next stop was Bear Creek bridge and that’s where things got weird…

Ocean-Born Mary: The Truth – Henniker, NH

(WARNING! This spoils the Ocean-Born Mary legend)

Ocean Born Mary - the true story Ocean-Born Mary is one of America’s most famous ghosts. However, only a few parts of her legend are true.

Here is the actual story, according to Henniker records that I researched, on-site.

Ocean-Born Mary really was born in 1720 aboard a ship, the Wolf. Also, her life was spared by the pirate Don Pedro, just as the story claims.

Mary’s father, Captain James Wilson, died soon after they landed in Boston, and his widow, Elizabeth, took Mary to Londonderry, NH, where she claimed the land Capt. Wilson had been granted.

Elizabeth married a second time, to James Clark (great-great grandfather of Horace Greeley, the man who said, “Go West, young man.”). She died about 1732.

1732 was also the year that the Wallace family, originally from Scotland, arrived in Londonderry, NH after living in Burnt Mills, Northern Ireland. (Burnt Mills is not on modern maps, but this is the town mentioned in historical accounts.)

Mary’s Happy Marriage

Thomas Wallace married Mary Wilson on December 18th, 1742.

And yes, she was actually six feet tall, with red hair. And, true to the legend, she wore a gown made from the silk given to her parents by Don Pedro.

The “Ocean-Born” Mary and Thomas Wallace did, indeed, have a daughter and four sons: Elizabeth, Thomas, Robert, William, and James.

However, “Ocean-Born” Mary wasn’t widowed early in life. In fact, Thomas Wallace, Sr., and his wife Mary lived a long and happy life together, until his death on October 30, 1791.

He is buried in Hill Graveyard, in Londonderry, NH.

More family history: Their daughter Elizabeth married Major (later Deacon) Thomas Patterson of the NH Militia; he was the son of Peter Patterson. They had at least one child, Robert Patterson.

Thomas Wallace, Jr., was a distinguished Revolutionary War hero.

Sons Robert, William, and James married sisters, respectively, Jeanette, Hannah, and Anna, all daughters of Robert and Mary Moore of Londonderry.

Mary’s Later Life

“Ocean-Born” Mary Wilson Wallace moved to Henniker on July 6, 1798 at age 78, and spent the rest of her life with her son, William, about a quarter-mile from one of her other sons, Robert Wallace.

Robert is the one who built the mansion that, today, is supposedly haunted by Ocean-Born Mary.

But… William’s journals and the census records suggest that Mary never lived in that house.

Mary died in 1814 and was buried in William Wallace’s family plot, as described in the legend, in Centre Cemetery. (That’s a little odd. Why wasn’t she buried with her husband, back in Londonderry?)

The romantic tale of Don Pedro cannot be documented after the encounter outside Boston Harbor.

So far, I haven’t found a land grant giving him 6,000 acres of land around Henniker. Though it’s unlikely the grant was that large, I can’t rule it out, either. The problem is: the grant was probably in his real name, not given to “Don Pedro.” So, I’m not sure if I’ve overlooked a record of his land grant.

However, Robert Wallace, who built the mansion, was considered a wealthy landowner with a deed to 300 acres surrounding the home. Even 300 acres is a very large piece of land, and could include a significant area around Henniker.

The silk wedding gown was very real, and worn by several of Mary’s descendants at their own weddings. Pieces of the gown remain, in the D.A.R. Museum in Washington, D.C. and in the public library of Henniker, NH. It is a lovely faded teal green silk, in a brocade style, with small teal flowers and white stripes through it.

Where Mary Lived – and Where She Didn’t

The home that Mary actually lived in was reported to be haunted and – after it was abandoned for a few years – the town purchased it in 1844.

It was turned into a poorhouse, known as “Wallace Poor Farm.”

In later years, it was reportedly destroyed by vandals. (The history of that house is just odd enough to make me wonder if it really was haunted… perhaps by Mary. Maybe, as the story was passed from one generation to the next, people confused the brothers’ houses.)

The “Ocean-Born Mary” house, as her son Robert’s mansion is known today, was owned by several families before it was bought in 1917 by Louis Maurice Auguste Roy, author of The Candle Book.

The Roys and Mary’s Legend

Mr. Roy and his mother purchased the house and restored it, after hearing rumors of a ghost.

Soon after completing work on “the Ocean-Born Mary house,” the Roys opened their doors to the public.

They charged admission, and Mr. Roy told colorful tales about Mary Wilson Wallace and the ghost which his mother claimed to have seen many times.

So, it’s possible the Robert Wallace’s house was haunted.

However, Mr. Roy’s stories were laced with fiction.

For example, the phantom rocking chair was never Mary’s, and it rocked because Mr. Roy placed it over a loose floorboard that extended the length of the room. By shifting his weight on it, from the other side of the room, Roy could make the chair sway.

Then, Mr. Roy enticed visitors with his story of the lost fortune of Don Pedro, still buried somewhere in the garden where the pirate had died.

And – as if he didn’t seem enough of a charlatan at that point – Mr. Roy rented shovels to the tourists, for 50-cents each, so they could dig for treasure in the back yard.

The descendants of Mary Wilson Wallace were not amused.

Despite that, Ocean-Born Mary became one of America’s best-known ghosts. After all, the public love stories of adventure, romance, and real-life ghosts.

The ‘Ocean-Born Mary House’ in Recent Years

Mr. Roy died in 1965. Subsequent owners of the home, while intrigued by the legend, have done everything possible to discourage curiosity-seekers from trespassing.

They even moved the road in front of the house, blocking tourists from invading their privacy.

The house last appeared in Yankee magazine in September 1996, where it was in the “House for Sale” section, listed at $875,000.

If that house is haunted – and it may be – it is probably not Ocean-Born Mary who walks there.

The first half of the story – in which the pirate spares the life of the crew and passengers, when the baby is named for his mother – is romantic enough to spark legends. The rest of the Don Pedro story appears to be made up by Mr. Roy.

Oh, “Ocean-Born Mary” may still haunt at least one house in Henniker, NH, and appear in locations around town, especially at Halloween.

Remember, October 30th is when her husband, Thomas Wallace, died. That kind of anniversary – plus any spectral energy at Halloween – could explain why stories of her ghost appear at that time of year.

If You Visit Henniker, New Hampshire

Henniker is a lovely town and it is home to New England College and Pat’s Peak skiing area.

Henniker’s Centre Cemetery is a classic New England graveyard, and perfect for picture-taking, if you like stark and eerie images. Mary Wilson Wallace is buried there.

A Henniker grave marker — Grave marker at Henniker’s Central burial ground.

However, the Ocean-Born Mary ghost story is clearly drawn from Green Lady traditions (because she haunts a house, not a family), and the story of appearing on a horse-drawn coach is straight out of Irish legends.

Mary Wilson Wallace is probably not haunting her son’s home, but she may still haunt Henniker.

Here’s my podcast about Ocean-Born Mary

Ocean-Born Mary – Her Ghost in Henniker, NH

“Ocean-Born Mary” is among America’s most famous ghosts.

Her story begins just off the coast of old New England. Her story includes adventure, romance, and – of course – a classic ghost or two.

Here’s what I discovered in my research in the town of Henniker, New Hampshire, at its public library, and during a visit to Mary’s grave.

The Legend of Ocean-Born Mary

Mary Wilson was born at sea on July 17th, 1720 (according to the old calendar), soon after her parents set sail from Londonderry, Ireland, aboard the ship, the Wolf. (If you’re going to investigate, the modern calendar anniversary of her birth is July 28th.)

As the ship neared Boston harbor, it was boarded by pirates, led by the ruthless – but very young and handsome – Don Pedro.

Don Pedro learned that there was a newborn aboard, and offered to let the ship and its passengers continue their voyage, unharmed, if the Wilsons would name the baby “Mary,” after his beloved mother.

The Wilsons eagerly agreed, so Don Pedro honored his promise and let them continue to Boston.

However, before his own ship of ruthless (and now unhappy) pirates sailed away, Don Pedro returned to the Wolf with a length of Chinese silk. He told the Wilsons that the fabric should one day be used for Mary’s wedding gown.

So, many years later – just before Christmas in 1742 – when Mary and Scotsman Thomas Wallace married, in Londonderry, New Hampshire, her wedding gown was made from that silk. (You can see a piece from it at the Henniker Public Library, and a larger piece in a museum in Washington, D.C.)

Mary and Thomas Wallace had a happy marriage, and their family quickly grew to include a daughter and four sons.

Sadly, Mary was widowed soon after the birth of her last son.

Word of the tragedy reached Don Pedro. Though he was still a relatively young man, he was eager to settle far from the call of the sea. During his career as a pirate, he’d earned – and saved – a fortune.

He ordered his men to row up the Contoocook River to the 6,000 acres of land he’d been granted by the King of England.

Apparently, “Don Pedro” was actually an English nobleman, previously the “black sheep” of the family, but now his wandering days were over.

Don Pedro had his ship’s carpenter build a fine mansion on a hilltop in what is now known as Henniker, New Hampshire. Even today, the house is known for its beams and detailing. They’re uniquely like a ship.

When the house was completed, Don Pedro went to Londonderry and begged Mary to live with him – as his housekeeper, since she still mourned her late husband. According to local legend, Don Pedro supported Mary and her children in grand style for many happy years.

However, the fortune that Don Pedro had earned was also the cause of his death. One night, men came to the Henniker mansion under the pretense of visiting with their old friend, Don Pedro.

Mary and her children went to bed, unaware that tragedy would soon strike.

Mary heard a curse from outside her window, and then a groan. Recognizing the voice of Don Pedro, she rushed to the garden and found him alone, dying with a pirate’s cutlass in his chest.

Before he died, he told Mary where he’d hidden his gold. Then, he asked her to bury him beneath the hearth in the home they’d shared so happily.

She honored his wishes. After that, Mary lived a long and comfortable life, never leaving the Henniker home. Don Pedro’s fortune had been so large, Mary left most of it where he’d hidden it. According to stories, it’s still somewhere on the property. (But, before you grab a metal detector and start looking for the treasure, remember this: Don Pedro’s land grant was 6,000 acres. The gold and jewels could be almost anywhere around Henniker.)

One of Mary’s hobbies was painting, and the American eagle and stars she painted over the front door of the home, can still be seen there today. Inside, her landscape murals decorate many rooms in the home.

Mary is Probably a ‘Green Lady’ Ghost

After her death in 1814, her spirit remained in the house, as a “green lady” ghost. That is, she protects the home and the people in it.

In the early 20th century, the home was opened to the public. Visitors often saw her rocking chair sway gently as she let them know she welcomed them.

Mary has been sensed near the hearth she tended carefully, after it became the final resting spot of Don Pedro.

In more recent years, two NH state policemen saw her one night, crossing the road in front of her house.

Hans Holzer, the famous ghost expert, has conducted two different (and apparently successful) seances to contact Mary. As recently as 1963, Mary helped put out a blazing fire in the house, while the owners watched in amazement.

Mary’s Halloween Ghost

On many Halloween nights, Mary rises from her grave in Henniker’s Centre Cemetery (twelve rows back from the front gate, and marked with a special plaque), and rides a magnificent horse-drawn coach to her home. (Her grave is shown in the photo, below.)

Ocean Born Mary's gravestone — Ocean-Born Mary’s gravestone, in Henniker, NH

Many people have seen Mary’s ghost. They always comment on her red hair, green eyes, and magnificent stature, at about six feet tall.

Even as a ghost, she’s an astonishingly beautiful woman. Her home is privately owned and definitely NOT open to visitors. Please respect the owners’ privacy.

Ocean-Born Mary remains one of America’s most famous and beloved ghosts. Many people around Henniker will tell you about their encounters with her, especially around Halloween.

That is the legend, and it is a wonderful story. Unfortunately, only half of it is true.

If you want to know more about the real Ocean-Born Mary, read The Truth about Ocean-Born Mary’s Ghost. It is not nearly as romantic as the ghost story, but it’s still fascinating.

Hollis, NH – Blood Cemetery ghosts

Blood cemetery graves, Hollis, NH “Blood Cemetery” is the local name for Pine Hill Cemetery in Hollis, near Nashua, NH. That nickname refers to the ghost of Abel Blood, who supposedly haunts the graveyard.

Urban legends claim occult connections to Abel Blood. However, history portrays him as a solid, very Christian and philanthropic member of the community. We have no reason to believe otherwise.

Whoever (or whatever) haunts Blood Cemetery… it’s probably not Abel Blood.

Pine Hill Cemetery (aka “Blood Cemetery”) is a lovely place to visit, but it doesn’t have a dramatically “haunted” feeling that we find at other ghostly sites.

However, our own experiences and reliable stories from others lead us to believe that it has some paranormal activity. We recommend this cemetery for daytime ghost hunting only.

Here are some of our reports. (Some links may not be available while we’re redesigning this website.)

Yes, it is silly: “Ghosts tampered with my gas gauge?“

To visit Blood Cemetery – Take Exit 6 (Rte. 130) from Rte. 3, go west to Nartoff Rd., and then travel north on Nartoff (which jogs right and then left) to reach this very haunted cemetery near the crest of the hill. The cemetery will be on your right. A low wooden sign suspended with chains says “Pine Hill Cemetery.” Park at the side of the road, but off the pavement to allow cars to pass easily.

Locals call this “Blood Cemetery” for its most famous ghost, Abel Blood. According to many visitors (and one of our most reliable Hollow Hill researchers, who’s seen this), Abel Blood’s headstone changes at night so the finger on the stone points down instead of heavenward.

However, the cemetery is closed dusk to dawn; the police patrol steadily, especially around Halloween. They’ve even approached us when we were photographing (legally) from the roadside.

Also, many Hollis residents don’t like the nickname “Blood Cemetery.” (We’ve had enough angry emails, thank you. We didn’t invent the nickname; we simply report the stories and folklore.) If you ask locally for directions, be sure to call it “Pine Hill Cemetery.”

There’s another reason to call the cemetery by its correct name: The Blood family name was large and widespread in New England. Many cemeteries, especially in Massachusetts and New Hampshire, include members of the Blood family.

So, if you use that name when asking for directions, you may be sent to a totally different cemetery… with its own ghost stories and Blood family graves. They all seem to be nicknamed “Blood Cemetery.”

If you’d like to visit a website dedicated to Blood Cemetery (alternately spelled “Blood Cemetary”), we recommend Blood Cemetery (Pine Hill Cemetery).
