Where's "PPI Presents..." presentiing next?

Our fall 2019 calendar of events will be announced soon!

EVP: EVP stands for “Electronic Voice Phenomenon,” usually the imprint of anomalous voices on analog and digital audio recordings, or on the audio of video recordings. Although a majority of EVP are, in fact, voices, the term is also used to describe any sound discovered in the recorded findings that was not audible to investigators or other equipment at the time of the recording. Reputable groups use a standard of classification for EVPs in order to separate the most convincing or compelling ones from those that have a higher probability of ordinary explanation. Persuasive EVPs that seem to be direct communication to the questions, rather than random words or phrases, and which are clearly audible and unambiguous in content tend to be classified as Class A EVPs. The vast majority of such findings, however, falls into the category of Class C for its poor sound quality and high levels of white noise.

EVP: Infrasound, Ultrasound or Something Else?

Over the years there has been a lot of debate regarding the nature of Electronic Voice Phenomena or EVP. One prevailing idea is that EVP is composed of either ultrasonic or infrasonic sound waves, and that is the reason why investigators are unable to hear EVP at the time of capture. Although this is an elegant idea, it is unlikely because it defies the basic understandings of acoustic energy.

Orb Study #4

During a recent investigation of a private residence, Pacific Paranormal Investigations (PPI) captured this insect "orb" on their infrared surveillance cameras. PPI presents this short video clip as part of our ongoing community outreach and education program.
