Ghost hunters are alive and well and posting their pictures on the Squirreled Wide Web.
This is right out of Saturday morning cartoons! These people run around looking for floating ectoplasmic critters that they can take pictures of to hang on their mantle at home. These folks are the original wacky ghost hunters!
The web site has recordings of the voices of ACTUAL DEAD PEOPLE on it, which almost makes up for the fact that it's in the background as soon as you load the page.
The Ghost Investigation Society says that they are available to investigate homes or businesses where you believe there may be a ghastly infestation. There's also a warning not to photocopy their website. Um... Whatever.
