Visiting sites reputed to be haunted, usually overnight and often in organized groups, to look for evidence of ghosts using equipment such as electromagnetic field meters, audio recorders for electronic voice phenomena, and infrared cameras. Hobbyist ghost hunting groups typically investigate old houses, hospitals, prisons and other sites with a local reputation for hauntings, document their sessions, and share findings online or through dedicated club meetings; the hobby sits outside mainstream science, and its claimed evidence is not accepted as such by the scientific community, which does not diminish its standing as a widely practiced pastime.
