Ecstasy

Ectoplasm is generally thought of as left over residue from paranormal activity. It is generally thought of a either a solid or vapor form.  Ectoplasm is said to be made up of a viscous substance which comes from a mediums solar plexus, a combination of certain chemicals used by spirit to project solid images to its audience.

Electronic Voice Projection (EVP)
Recording of spirit voices. Sections of static noise on the radio or electronic recording which some listeners believe sound like voices speaking words, and which paranormal investigators interpret as the voices of ghosts or spirits. When an EVP is recorded there are no voices present at the time of the recording. An EVP is only audible when played back.

Electro-Magnetic Field (EMF)
A field of force associated with electric charge in motion. There is a theory that a high amount of electromagnetic energy can cause poltergeist activity, but also a theory that these same high energy levels attract spirit and that it is indeed spirit that cause the strange phenomena.  Electromagnetic Fields-EMF's are created naturally on the earth and also by man made objects. A high concentration of electromagnetic activity in a specific area is considered by many as a sign of paranormal activity. Prolonged exposure to high EMF's can actually cause paranoia and sometimes hallucinations. These effects can sometimes be attributed to suspected paranormal experiences.
