I would so love to receive a message from my departed loved ones... it's not as though I don't encourage them every day
Maybe I wouldn't feel so lonely, for just a day !
Being the last living family member aged 46 isn't easy... I can really relate to the elderly who have lost all their nearest and dearest. Losing my best friends doesn't help. They visit in dreams regularly, and perhaps I should be content with just that...

i know its very hard to not feel the way you do, it drives me crazy sometimes about my grandparents. the messages i got via evp were 'nan and charlie in you lives' (no one knows we always called them nan and charlie, never nan and grandad or anything like that) and the other was 'nan and charlie see you fall asleep' (there were a few more words but just to cut it short) so my message to you is what my message was, you're family are a part of you and always will be, they will always live on in you and if my grandparents see me got to sleep then im positive your family members do to. why don't you give evp a try? you don't need expensive stuff just use your mobile phone to record and say what you feel, i could help you.

Here is where I stand on the issue of mysterious subject matter in general, just to give the reader an idea of where I am coming from. My beliefs are based on personal experiences, and have been reinforced by the experiences of people close to me, whom I trust with my life. So there are two mysterious subjects that I KNOW exist. One of these is ghosts, or spirits, or whatever one wishes to call them, and the other is sasquatch. As far as aliens, I have never seen one, so I have no clue if they exist. Although the plethora of sightings does warrant further investigation, and means that opinions should be reserved until more concrete evidence is available.
Anyway, in my years of not only researching paranormal activity, but experiencing it as well, I have come away with a bit of concrete knowledge regarding the paranormal and electronic devices. It is true that spirits can actually cause electronic devices, such as televisions, cd players or radios, appliances, etc. to actually turn on, even when the device is unplugged and does not contain batteries. There is no power source to speak of, yet they can manipulate these devices. Some might say that this is not necessarily manipulation, but the result of some type of energy field emitted by the ghost, which induces a current in the circuitry of the device. I have though of this many times, and have concluded that this is not the case. What I mean is that they probably manipulate devices using their own energy, wherever they get it from, but what happens is not an accident, but is done intentionally.
More recently investigators have been using ghost boxes, which are sort of like dictionaries in that every single word contained within the device is linked to a specific frequency of energy. The idea is that a spirit can manipulate the device to actually produce words. If someone would have told me this I probably wouldn't believe it could work, although I would have thought there was a chance, but the truth is that they do work. This suggests that these ghosts actually have minute control over the energy that they possess and draw, although I don't know exactly how they accomplish this.
And it may seem that a spirit could not contact a person through a cell phone without going through the providers cell towers, but this is actually the case. There is absolutely no need for service OR power for a ghost to contact somebody through a cellular device. Well, I assume no power is needed, as I haven't seen a dead phone ring with a ghost on the other end, but I bet they could do it, based on what else I have stated and what I know. But there need not be service of any kind. I highly doubt the call would even register on the provider's system.
So it is important to understand that ghosts are not accidentally or inadvertently using devices in such a manner. It is not like they have no control over their energy. Some people believe this, but it is not true. They have SURGICAL control over the manipulation of energy fields. Like I said, I don't know HOW they do it, or why in many cases, but they can. This manipulation of energy goes all the way to the electrical systems of the human body. And I believe that spirits can sometimes manipulate the human body, and that they do so through the electrical systems. So by tweaking the nervous system of a person, they are able to produce a few different psychological effects.
