The Mystery Investigators


Thank you very much for the interesting talk on Tuesday morning. Your efforts were very much appreciated by the girls and the staff as later discussions revealed. The water divining way to demonstrate a ‘double blind’ trial was excellent and made it very clear to the girls. And nothing beats a good dose of ‘magic’ spoons to get them hooked!

We hope you are still in business next year so you can come again to our next Year 10 group.

Thank you again,

Denise Foot

The Ghost on the Stairs? Sept.2006

This photo is from a video taken with a video camera, using infrared vision (night vision that results in a tell-tale green colour) in a well lit stairwell. The 'ghost' is in fact a cobweb that is very close to the lenes. (I could not find a spider or moth that would crawl on my camera!)


Here is a frame form the REAL video.


Here's the real video. Looks like a spider or a web (or both), very close the camera. When the spider or moth (or web) gets near the infrared lights, near the camera, you get a bright green glow of reflection. Sorry, no ghost.
