How to See a Ghost

Hearing what might be a ghost's voice isn't good enough for you? You actually want to see one? The Internet just might make that possible.

Do It Yourself
How can you see a ghost in your own home, even if you don't think it's haunted? There may be a way using a home video camera through a technique known as video feedback.

• Place your video camera on a tripod and aim it at your TV set.
• Connect the video camera to the TV so that what the video camera sees in shown live on the TV. In other words, you're taking video of what the camera is seeing on the TV.
• Zoom in so that the TV screen fills the video frame.
• Watch the show.
• You'll want to tape it at the same time so you can replay the video frame by frame.

What will you see? The technique induces video feedback, which can produce a lot of strange images - and in some cases what appear to be human faces. Are they ghosts?
