The lights flicker. Your phone hums in your hand. Somewhere in the static, a voice is trying to come through. Are you listening? Ghost Hunting Tools is a full paranormal investigation kit running on your phone. Spirit box, EVP scanner, ghost detector, and EMF meter, all in one app. Built for first-time ghost hunters and veteran investigators alike. Free to use, with a Pro upgrade when you are ready to dig deeper. What's inside Spirit Box and Ghost Talker Open a session and the app scans for ghostly signals, pulling words from a curated dictionary in real time. Read them on screen, hear them spoken aloud, and watch as patterns start to form. The kind of one-word-at-a-time communication serious investigators look for, without the radio hiss. EVP Scanner Capture Electronic Voice Phenomena from the ambient noise around you. Phrases, fragments, names. Some you will write off as coincidence. Others will sit with you longer than you expected. EMF Detector (NEW on iOS) Brand new in version 2.21.4: a working EMF meter pulled straight from your phone's sensors. Watch the readings spike when something steps into the field. Cross-reference with the spirit box and you have two channels lining up at once. Sensor Dashboard EMF, motion, light. Your phone has more paranormal-detection capability than most people realize, and the dashboard reads all of it. Easy-to-follow graphs let you spot the moment everything goes quiet, right before it doesn't. The Word Bank A large dictionary of words the app surfaces during scans. No filler, no random noise for the sake of it. Just the vocabulary that paranormal investigators have reported reaching for them again and again. Pro unlocks a much bigger bank and lets you add your own words. Pro Version Remove ads, unlock the expanded dictionary, and add custom words of your own: names of the deceased, places of interest, anything you suspect might be listening. Pro purchases also fund continued development of the app, so the hunt keeps getting better because of the people who go pro. Why people keep this app on their home screen You do not have to believe in ghosts to enjoy Ghost Hunting Tools. You just have to be curious about what happens in the quiet moments. Open the app at a bonfire, in a basement, in an empty hotel room. Bring a friend. Tell us what you find. Ghost hunt safely Trust your instincts. Don't go alone to places you don't know. If something feels wrong, close the app and walk away. Tools are tools, and your judgment is what keeps you safe. A note on entertainment Ghost Hunting Tools is built for fun and curiosity. We can't promise you will talk to a real ghost. We can promise you will have a story.

Read full description

GhostTube SLS Camera detects humanoid bodies and homogeneous shapes in your environment similar to the way in which a traditional SLS camera works. On devices equipped with Apple's LiDAR technology, GhostTube SLS Camera uses a projected grid of infrared light to detect depth and for better visibility in the dark. Our complex algorithms use data gathered from the camera and depth sensors to detect people and people shaped objects with accuracy that surpasses that of the Kinect SLS cameras. For devices lacking LiDAR, GhostTube will instead rely on dual lens cameras to measure depth in a similar way to how the human eye detects depth - triangulation of objects based on data from multiple lenses. Some light may be required due to the size or lack of sensors depending on the device you're using. Don't pay hundreds or thousands of dollars for a modified gaming console - GhostTube SLS Camera is available FREE for download and can be used as an SLS Camera in all of your paranormal investigations. For more paranormal investigation and ghost hunting tools, check out our other apps. GhostTube offers auto renewable subscriptions. Refer to our website for a full list of terms and conditions, including those relating to auto-renewable subscriptions: GhostTube.com/terms Although GhostTube SLS Camera offers some low light filters, the app is not intended as an aid for seeing in the dark. Always use adequate lighting on your paranormal investigations. Certain shapes and patterns may trigger figures to be mapped by GhostTube SLS Camera.
