Taking a more scientific approach, our goals are to discover the truth concerning the paranormal, reveal the facts while educating others with our evidence, to help those in need, and, obviously, to find evidence that ghosts do, in fact, exist.

Our team conducts investigations of paranormal activity using nightvision cameras, digital voice recorders, sound activated audio recorders, gauss (EMF) meters and digital cameras. All members will perform a serious and thorough investigation of every case that we are presented with. Being that our investigation methods are based in theory, we are constantly learning new techniques and refining old ones to provide the best possibility of capturing evidence of spirit activity. There is unfortunately no exact science to capturing ghosts on film or audio and we cannot make any promises that we will succeed 100% of the time in capturing any evidence. In fact, we believe that over 90% of all reported claims of paranormal and ghost activity is easily explained and dismissed as normal occurances. We will always look for the most plausable explanation first and then test that theory until the occurance is either debunked or confirmed. Just because you think you hear footsteps upstairs, doesn't mean it's not just pipes rattling or the house settling. G.L.A.S.S. is committed to professionalism and courtesy when performing our investigations. We will never hide, falsify or sugarcoat our findings after investigating your claim. We can only offer the truth of our findings and hope that whatever evidence or explanation we present to each client will gives them a sense of satisfaction from our investigation.
