SUMMARY:Paranormal Librarians
DESCRIPTION:Join us at the La Plata Branch after hours for a hands-on ghost hunting experience! Participants will learn the methods used by professional paranormal researchers\, including how to operate equipment such as EMF detectors\, spirit boxes\, dowsing rods\, audio and video recorders\, and trigger objects. \nWe’ll begin with an overview of how the tools work and best practices for conducting a respectful and thorough investigation. Then\, once the library has grown dark\, we’ll explore both the downstairs meeting room and the upstairs adult section\, using what we’ve learned to investigate possible paranormal activity. \nAfter the investigation\, participants will rotate through stations to review audio and video recordings\, analyze data\, and practice techniques for documenting—or debunking—potential findings.
