HexCom

Monday, December 5th, 2022

HexCom

The HexCom is made by SpiritShack. It’s designed specifically for communicating with spirits. Using it’s built in EMF meter ghosts are able to select words from a database of over 2,000 words. It’s similar to the Ovilus.

Once words are chosen, they will be displayed on screen, and will be spoken out aloud by the built-in speaker. The HexCom will show you the previous 9 words chosen on the large backlit colour screen. Further chosen words will replace the older ones one by one.

Designed with accuracy and usability in mind, a bright screen and a wide viewing angle you will never miss a response. The words chosen are easily viewable from any angle.

Available from Spiritshack for £288 (price correct as of November 2022)

Ovilus

Thursday, July 23rd, 2020

Ovilus

An Ovilus is used by the spirits present to pick word from the devices memory to help with communication. There are 2500 words in the dictionary which isn’t many by our verbal vocabulary but there is also a relevancy bar, the more of this that is displayed, the more relevant the word is to the conversation or question.

This version, which is version 3 is probably the most popular version of this tool as this was the first time that the word was printed on the screen as well as being heard. This is the dictionary mode. There are other modes including a phonetic mode, but the dictionary mode is by far the easiest to understand. This is also one of the most requested tools during any of our investigations.

Since there is a limited dictionary, the words picked can be the wrong words or not relevant to the conversation, as we, human beings have a vocabulary of about 50000 words, 2500 words is not a lot to explain anything. Therefore there will be times when the words don’t mean much.

We often try to explain to our guests that these devices are not designed to answer questions, but to assist in communication and will help answer questions, but not directly. The word that come out are usually relevant but not a direct answer. Unfortunately this leads to misinterpretations which is perfectly normal, but like so many other paranormal equipment, we don’t rely on just one tool, we use several at the same time so that we can understand and communicate with the spirits.

Version 3 of the Ovilus was the better version in our opinion, there have been improvements but for the ease of use and the size of the device, this version was the best. The newer version Ovilus 5b has more features and more capabilities and costs about $550 from Digital Dowsing  however, you may be able to find a version 3 on Amazon or eBay, but we would expect to pay about £600 for a used one.

Fort Borstal – 30th October 2015 (Kym)

Tuesday, January 12th, 2016

Fort Borstal ghost hunt 30th October 2015
Rochester, Kent.

fort-borstal-front

Area: Caponier
Equipment: Rods, Pendulums, Ghost Pro, KII, SB7, Ovilus III, Mel Meter
Once everyone knew how to use the rods & pendulums (some were familiar to the equipment), we all communicated with the spirits there, of which were several.  We were feeling coldness around us, and felt like we were being touched too.  We also heard a loud male breath near us.  We then used the rest of the equipment, and felt there was a spirit in the corridor.  Every now and again he would come into the room, then venture back out to the corridor.  The Mel Meter showed the temp to be 13 degrees, and 0.4 to 0.5 mg.  We also had various words on the Ovilus, but nothing on the SB7.  With the second group again we had spirit communication using all the equipment.  On the Ovilus we had the following words: general – pat – fly – Africa – disaster.  Were we talking to the pilot that had come down here at the fort.  With the controlled sessions over I joined most of the guests and Trudi (team) back in the caponier doing Ouija and table tipping.  Both were very active, with the guests amazed by what they were able to experience.

Charlton House – 10th October 2015 (Kym)

Friday, October 23rd, 2015

Charlton House ghost hunt 10th October 2015
London

Area: Attic
Equipment: Dowsing Rods, Pendulums, Ghost Pro, KII, Spirit Box, Ovilus III, Mel Meter

Group C – This was a new area for us to work in, we had ventured into this area in the free session before, but it was a great opportunity to experience this place more.  We started by using the dowsing rods & pendulums, many had used these before, and had visited this venue before.  Two female guests were communicating with a female spirit, her husband and a son.  They were feeling them too by the static energies moving around them.  They were also sensing a small girl too.  They were hearing tapping, and when asking spirit to repeat, they would hear it again.  We then started using the equipment, no activity all night on the KII’s, but a lot of communication with the Ghost Pro’s.  Some were experiencing headaches, and feeling sick in a certain room.  On the Ovilus when asking spirit his name we got Paul, when asking if that was his name we got “rewind”.  Seemed quite apt.

Group A – Started with the rods & pendulums, and guests went off to explore the area communicating with spirit.  I also handed out kit for the guests to use.  Jo (guest) wanted to know the name of the spirit she was communicating with, and as I often say we are all receptive to spirit communication if we allow, so I left her on her own for a short while, asking spirit their name, and she had two names given to her in her head: Michael & Sam.  We asked the ghost pro if Michael was his name, and it answered yes.  Asked a few more questions; Michael had lived here, he didn’t own the house, but his family did.  Then a different spirit started communicating with us on the ghost pro, I suggested Jo ask if it was Sam, and answered yes.  He was the brother of Michael.  We asked how old Sam was, and the Ovilus answered “six”.  Whilst we were all standing at the top of the stairs, we all heard a loud bang in one of the rooms behind us.  This was the door to the roof, but checking, it was securely closed.  We continued to communicate with Sam, and I felt a touch on my leg.  I then felt a touch & coldness to my right hand, asking for Sam to touch Jo she immediately felt a coldness on her hand, and a tug on her little finger.

Group B – Again we started by using the rods & pendulums, and most had spirit communication.  Female & male spirits.  One guest had the name “Sam Moore” in her head.  Guests were feeling cold areas around them.  They were also being touched and pushed.  Someone felt her arm being moved up whilst holding the dowsing rods.  Whilst we were all standing at the top of the stairs, we asked the spirit to touch us, and two guests felt a cold touch on their thighs, in the same place at the same time.
An interesting area, and when entering at the start of the evening on my own I had the feeling of being watched, sensing there were many that wanted to communicate with us.  We were not disappointed.

Explosion Museum – 9th May 2015 (Wayne & Paula)

Friday, July 3rd, 2015

Explosion Museum ghost hunt 9th May 2015
Gosport, Hampshire

Location: Missile Warehouse and Cottages
We used Ghost Pros, K2 Meters, SB7 Spirit Box, Laser Grid, EM Pump, Mel Meter, REM Pod, Ovilus lll and Infrared Non Contact Thermometer.

Session 1 with Steve

Straight away we had activity near the coffin carrier with the ghost pros where we met Arnold/Arnie who introduced himself initially to Steve and then the guests with communication through the ghost pros. He was a maintenance man working on the machines and firearms in the warehouse we established him to be in his 60s. His son was also with us, his name was Chris and he was 14 which we discovered through the ghost pros.
We then used the SB7 as they both seemed willing to communicate with us which they did. Firstly Chris said “Hello” very clearly then we heard both Chris and Arnold say there names through the spirit box.
A couple of the guests felt cold spots on their shoulders so with the non contact thermometer we managed to get readings to validate this as their normal temperature was around 20oC and the cold spots were showing 17.5oC
Also Steve managed to pick up on many spirit “working” as they would have done when they were alive unaware that we were there.

Session 2 with Louise

In the 2nd session we had a spirit come forward that we had met on a previous investigation here in February. Her name is Carly and she is a little girl that we think lived in the cottages that are linked to the Missile rooms and that she is probably in there playing and being cheeky. She didn’t communicate that much but she did let us know that she was there and that she wanted to play with the interactive bear which we had with us last time but unfortunately left it behind on this investigation.
We used 2 Mel meters on the coffin carrier which both spiked to 0.4mg at various times from a baseline reading of 0.0mg,but what was interesting was that when we reviewed our camcorder footage when we got home we captured one of the Mel meters moving by itself, only a very small amount but nevertheless it moved without being touched by any of us.
After this one of our male guests had some great activity with the K2 meter that he was using, spirit was able to light it up to amber and hold it there and then when asked able to light up to the red.

Red Lion Hotel – 16th May 2015 (Kym)

Wednesday, May 27th, 2015

Red Lion Hotel ghost hunt 16th May 2015
Colchester, Essex

Area: Room’s 6 & 7
Equipment: Tech Equip, Dowsing Rods & Pendulums, Writing Planchette, Glass Work

Group C – We started in room 7 using the rods & pendulums, and all had some movement.  After establishing their yes & no movements, guests communicated with the female & male spirits with us, also asking to point the rods to where the spirit was standing, which they did.  We did some glasswork, which started moving and we established our yes & no.  The spirit was female, and had her son with her.  Whilst doing this we heard a knock on the door, on checking no-one was there and as the floor creaks in the corridor and there is another door outside, we were sure we would have heard if someone there. We then heard two knocks on the chest of drawers in the room.  To reduce the noise contamination in the room, we decided two people stayed in the room at a time, whilst the remaining guests went with me to room 6 to do tech equip.  We had lots of activity on the KII’s and Ghost Pro’s, nothing on the SB7 (Spirit Box), but had the following strong words on the Ovilus II: mommy, enough, run.  The pairs of guests in room 7 did have some strange things happen too, definitely feeling a presence in the room with them.

Group A – Again started in room 7 with rods & pendulums, and all had movement.  They were communicating again with a female & male spirit.  We tried with all 8 guests doing glasswork, but with nothing happening I split the group with 3 guests in room 6 doing kit, and the remaining 5 continuing with the glasswork in 7.  Lots of activity on KII’s, Ghost Pro’s and Ovilus II, and when checking back in room 7 the glass had been moving a lot.  They had asked the spirit to take the glass to the birthday girl which it did.  Seemed a lovely fun spirit.

Group B – Started with the rods & pendulums and had a female spirit communicating with us, and then we had a boy.  I split the group with half in room 6 doing tech, and the rest in room 7 doing glasswork.  With activity in room 6 on all the equipment it was noted some of the strong words on the Ovilus II were water & rabbit.  With the glasswork we had the boy communicating with us.  He was 12 years old and had drowned.  It was not an accident.  His name was Robert and from the 1500’s.  Asking who he would like to ask the questions, the glass went to Lisa (guest).  She reminded him of his mum.  When the tech group came in and said the words water & rabbit had appeared on the Ovilus, we linked water to the boy drowning.  And asked if he had a rabbit as toy, it answered yes.  He also had a twin brother.

Now into the free session, the guests in room 7 decided to stay and try the writing planchette, and we were all amazed to see a picture of rabbit being drawn by the boy.

Colchester Town Hall – 17th April 2015 (Kym)

Friday, May 15th, 2015

Colchester Town Hall ghost hunt 17th April 2015
Colchester, Essex

Area: Council Chambers
Equipment: Dowsing Rods, Pendulums, Tech Equipment

Group C – We started by using the rods & pendulums, everyone chose one and started getting movement.  Once they had established their yes & no movements, they were able to ask the spirits some questions.  We had male & female spirits with us.  Marc (guest) whilst sitting in the mayor’s chair saw a large black shadow in one corner of the room, he placed a KII there but didn’t see any lights go on.  It wasn’t until I was talking to Edward (guest) later, he had felt a coldness next to him at the same time, in the same place as Marc had seen the shadow.  But when Marc had put the KII there it had disappeared.  Karen (guest) wanted to go to the Upper Gallery, and whilst there had a female spirit with her.  Just before I left her on her own there, I had the name Catherine given to me, asking spirit if that was her name using the Ghost Pro, it confirmed yes.  I left Karen talking to the spirit with her pendulum & ghost pro and she was able to find out the spirit had been murdered here by her husband, who had also killed their children.  She was an older woman with grey hair, with a hat wearing a black dress.  When Karen came down, Marc & Helen went to the balcony and whilst there they were asking spirit to touch them.  They started to realise both were being touched at the same time in the same place each time.  They also had the spirit box with them and asked the question “how many persons were in this room” and they clearly heard the number seven – there were seven of us.

Group A – Again started by showing the guests how to use the rods & pendulums, and most had movement.  Some had a male spirit, another had a small female child, possibly aged around 5 or 6.  We could feel her warm energy between us, around our hip height.  We both sensed she had long blond straight hair, she confirmed this by answering yes on the pendulum.  When using the spirit box we had alot of words come through, but none clear enough.  We were all hearing something different each time.  Steve (guest) was standing by the door using rods, and was sensing a mayor with him.  Asking if that was the shadow that was seen in the earlier session, the rods answered yes.  The rods also pointed to where we need to look to see him again, which was the same place seen earlier.  Steve had also felt a touch a moment before.  We did keep looking in that area hoping to see the shadow again, but unfortunately no.

Group B – Using the rods & pendulums again to start, lots had movement, all were able to communicate with spirit, some had male, others had female.  When using the equipment we did have some relavant words on the Ovilus, but had many more words on the Spirit Box: the name Bob & Stephen for the name of the spirits, no guests names said when asked but did say the number of people in the room correctly twice – ten.  People were seeing shadows in various places in the room, and one guest saw a shadow behind me at the same time I felt someone shaking my chair I was sitting on.
After the last controlled session finished I stayed with another team member Louise and did some glasswork.  The glass started moving, and after establishing our yes & no positions, the spirit confirmed he was the mayor from earlier.  Surprisingly we felt the table shake whilst the glass was moving.  This was a very large heavy table and we found it difficult to move ourselves.  We did ask the spirit to take the glass to where he was standing which he did.  We were also hearing noises and footsteps around us.  I could also feel someone touching my hair.

The Town Hall at Colchester is an amazing building, very active with spirit, and one I cannot wait to return.

Landguard Fort – 14th March 2015 (Wayne)

Friday, April 24th, 2015

Languard Fort ghost hunt14th March 2015
Felixstowe, Suffolk

Gun Room

Session 1

We used K2s, Ghost Pros, SB7 Spirit Box, REM Pod, Laser Grid, Ovilus 3, EM Pump, Full Spectrum Video Camera and Digital Voice Recorder throughout the sessions.

Guests used the ghost pros and K2s with great success having a lot of activity and communication throughout the session, all K2s showing the same light pattern and spikes at exactly the same time. A male spirit communicated through the ghost pro with one of the guests establishing that he was killed in an explosion on one of the staircases within the fort. We also had a female spirit called “Jane”, she was killed outside the fort in the mouth of the river by her sister “Carol” who was jealous over a man in 1864. She was in her 20’s. “Jane” admitted pulling a guests hair at least 3 or 4 times during our communication with her, I (Wayne) asked the guest what her name was, Jasmine she said, then she added but my middle name is “Jane”.

Session 2

We had activity with the K2s and ghost pros again communicating with the spirit of “Jane” while another guest had a female spirit with the initials “G” and “A” we later managed to confirm this spirit as “Gladys” she also stated that she was the auntie of “Jane” and “Carol” and knew about the terrible act carried out on “Jane” by her sister.

Session 3

A quieter session in terms of K2 and Ghost Pro activity but we had some great responses on the SB7 in this session, capturing 2 male spirit voices through the spirit box both stating their names “Bill” and “Danny” respectively. One guest decided to roll a coin to the other end of the room past everyone into a clear space, we all watched it roll past and heard it come to a stop before it reached the doors, the guest then asked if any of the spirits present could roll it back to him, we heard a slight thud in the direction of where the coin would be but nothing else happened so we asked again. When nothing happened this time we went to where the coin had stopped, but it had disappeared the whole group looked for it throughout the room, underneath the mock cannon, in the cracks in the floor (which weren’t deep enough or open enough to hide a coin) and in the corners of the window recesses but the coin was never found. We done another SB7 spirit box session and asked if “Bill” or “Danny” were still present and if either of them had taken the coin to which we had an answer from “Bill” saying “Yep” in very smug sounding tone.

Shire Hall – 24th January 2015 (Wayne)

Friday, April 24th, 2015

Shire Hall ghost hunt 24th January
Hereford, Herefordshire

Courtroom 2 and Cells with Sean

Session 1
We used ghost pros, Mel meters and SB7

We handed out ghost pros to the guests who were quite happy to go off to investigate the areas.
Near the toilet at the end of the cell corridor the guests managed to get information of a male spirit in his 30’s with a horse and cart who was hung, his wife didn’t live long after his death, they also had children and claimed to be together as a family.

In the cell areas we had good activity with guests and team experiencing feelings, smells and being physically touched.
Sean and Wayne had feelings in cell 4 of dizziness and headaches but only in this cell
Wayne used the SB7 in cell 4 and heard the name “Brian” and shortly after “get out!” came through and at the same time felt a brushing across the left ear while Sean at exactly the same time whilst standing in the doorway of cell 4 felt his shoulder being grabbed.
Paula felt “cobwebs” across her face in the cell corridor near the toilet and also noticed towards the end of the session that cell 2 had its panic alarm light on which we then turned off.

Session 2
We used ghost pros, Mel meters and SB7

Again we handed out ghost pros to the guests who incidentally we all female and in their early 20’s. Ghost pros were lighting straight away so we split the guests into pairs and put each pair in to a cell and shut the doors. They all had some communication on the ghost pros.
Sean then brought all the guests back to cell 4 and asked them to stand in a circle to build energy, which had an effect on a spirit in cell 3 as it seemed as though it was a male spirit trying to push past Wayne and Paula who were standing in the doorway to cell 4 to see the female guests. As Paula was filming she said that she noticed a feeling of tingling down the back of both of her legs and felt a cold spot behind her with goose bumps on her right hand side, Wayne was also feeling the cold spot on his left between them and noticed Paula’s hair being played with by an unseen force in the light given off by the LCD screen.
Next we noticed that cell 2’s panic light had come back on which we all investigated on each of the cells and came to the conclusion that it was impossible for the panic buttons to be accidentally pushed or leaned on and at the time we noticed the light being on none of us were near the button inside the cell.
Sean and Wayne were again both being affected by spirit in cell 4 with dizziness.
We then ventured to courtroom 2 where we had ghost pro activity once more with the name Robert or Bob being very prominent. Tapping and creaking was being heard by us all in the gallery at the back of the room, again none of us were in that area at the time.
Loud footsteps were heard and felt through the floor walking away from and down the stairway to the cells from the accused chair.

Session 3
We used ghost pros, Mel meters,SB7 and Ovilus 3

Handing out the ghost pros we had immediate activity again in cell 4 with communication from a female spirit called Veronica. She died in the 1800’s and had 1 child, she was in love with an inmate but although she carried on coming back to the lady and gentlemen guests that were both holding ghost pros that she was communicating through we didn’t manage to get any more information about her.
We then tried the Ovilus 3 device in cell 4 which amazingly gave us 3 names which were Nick, Jim and Veronica. We tried to establish which spirit was giving us these names and if Nick or Jim was the inmate that Veronica was in love with but had no more communication through this device.

We then moved the session into courtroom 2.
Wayne used the SB7 in the stairwell from the accused chair to the cells with the couple that were talking to Veronica. We established from this spirit box session that there were 5 spirits with us and that both Veronica and Jim were 2 of the spirits present as they said their names clearly and with tone through this device.
Creaking was again heard from the gallery at the back of courtroom 2 with none of us in that area.

Marwell Hall ghost hunt – 29-3-2014 (Kym)

Monday, April 7th, 2014

Marwell Hall ghost hunt 29th March 2014
Winchester, Hampshire

Area: Rear Downstairs Room Equipment: KII’s, Ghost Pro’s, Dowsing Rods, Pendulums, Writing Planchette

Group C – After getting over the initial excitement of being in a new location, and a zoo!… we started with explaining how to use the dowsing rods and pendulums.  Guests started receiving movement, and establishing their yes & no’s.  It’s always lovely seeing the guests’ reaction to this.  I then split the group with half trying the writing planchette, and the rest continuing to use rods & pendulums, with ghost pro’s and KII’s.  Those using the ghost pro’s had two male spirits with them, one was a soldier, stationed at Marwell in WW2.  I asked the spirit to touch the guest, and he was surprised to immediately feel a tingling up his spine.  The group with the writing planchette were receiving movement from a little boy age 10.  With the promise to bring him a ball to play with, the drawing increased.  We asked that he draw a ball, and to everyone’s surprise he did.  The other group were feeling a lot of touches – tingling sensations, with cold spots.  I then swapped the groups and this group had some movement with the planchette.  One guest sensed her brother Douglas was with them.  Each time I would return to this group my head hurt, when mentioning this, another guest was experiencing the same and it was revealed the spirit had died from a brain tumour.  The other group continued to have communication with the little boy on the ghost pro, I felt his name was Adam, and the ghost pro confirmed this was correct.  I went to get the balls we had promised, and the guests laid them on floor, asking for the boy to move them.  It was the end of the session, and as the guests went to retrieve their bags, when looking at the balls before they left they noticed the balls had indeed moved.

Group A – we started again with explaining to the guests how to use the rods & pendulums.  One guest who had used the rods before was able to find out the spirit with her was female, and had lived and worked at Marwell.  We then tried the writing planchette but had no movement, we tried to see if spirit would move the glass but again no movement, we then turned on the Spirit Box and the glass started moving, very gently.  With a lot of encouragement from everyone the glass continued to move, asking spirit to move the glass to the spirit box, it did until the glass pushed the box off the table.  The glass continued to move gently around the table, no words came through on the spirit box.  We did have a lot of ghost pro activity.

Group B – With my last group, after trying the rods & pendulums and receiving some movement, the guests wanted to try and communicate with spirit through the glass on table.  I sat back with the Ovilus and had the word “girl” come through.  The glass started moving, and after establishing where a yes & no were on the table asked spirit to confirm if they were a girl – yes.  She also said she was frightened of being told off by her mother.  She did however move the glass more, and at guests request took the glass to each corner of the table.

For the final free session I went to the upstairs room where Steve had been with guests all night.  This room didn’t have a nice feel to it, I couldn’t put my finger on it, but would not stay in this room on my own, and when asking guests several times if they wanted to do a solo, all said no!
