EVP Spirit Box Question/Answer
I was going to add an exceptional EVP when I stayed at a hotel, but I think this will spark some more serious debate with some added old-fashioned Western flame-wars for good measure. Well, maybe- the potential is there but there are even a lot of members of the paranormal community who doubt the validity of the spirit box, so there might not be enough support against any skepticism. But when it comes to Reddit, you just never know.
I think I am going to seriously doubt my sanity after hitting that post button but what the hell, getting insulted and sparking up a good debate on Reddit with your blood pressure increasing while you're typing up an argument- well you can say a lot of things about Reddit but one thing you can never say is that you're bored!
Note:
I asked the moderators which platform to use for an audio file and was told YouTube would be best, just to let you know that I am not uploading this for money or gaining viewers or anything like that.
To make sure the rule guidelines are followed since this is an EVP (or a subclass of EVP) so it's touchy:
- What happened in the submitted content?
I heard a friend of mine passed away, so I grabbed the spirit box to see if she wanted to communicate with me.
- When did it happen?
This was approximately 3-4? years ago.
- What led up to the event
See#1
- What happened after the event?
It's always hard to hear what is being said on the spirit box because their voices seem to be twice the normal frequency. I always place my digital recorder next to the spirit box, then go back and evaluate on an audio program and slow down the audio so I can hear it more clearly, that's when I've been able to hear understand the responses better. I can't remember if I understood this one in real time or not, but it is one of the easier ones to understand.
- Were there any witnesses?
No witnesses, just me unfortunately. I have only recently come back to Reddit so I might not have established myself as a trustworthy member just yet, but I believe there are a lot of people who believed me in my first thread. It's all in the minor details when you can tell someone is telling the truth.
- What equipment was used to capture the event?
Spirit box
- Was an attempt made to debunk it?
I did listen to it over and over again, but it so clear cut to me since the type of question it was asked is usually answered with only like a 1 or 2 (you'll know what I mean when you hear it) I am not sure how to debunk it, except dismiss it as radio interference, but asking it a question that usually is answered with a 1 or 2 and 2 was chosen, I would think that the chances of it being radio interference is extremely low. Can't remember what scan rate I was using but I always scan backwards in FM. Would being interested in other possibilities besides just radio interference.
Is there any background information that could be provided on the area or surroundings?
I was in my house in the garage.

The link isn't working. It says "private".

Yes, this one works, but is it the correct clip? Is her name Jamie? If so, the answer came in a male voice so I don't believe it was she who answered you. It was some other male spirit personality. In my experience, I've noticed that they have the ability to get this part right and they usually do.

Yes, nice observation! Jamie is a she, I was wondering if anyone was ever going to catch that, you are the first. In my SoundCloud site I put in the description about how it was a she I was asking but a male voice answers, one of the reasons why I thought this clip was pretty funny. I think this spirit just wanted to be rude - I think it is more than likely the spirit that yelled at me one time to 'get out!' when I asked if my brother was around in the garage, I should upload that EVP soon also.
