EVP stands for Electronic Voice Phenomenon. An EVP takes place when a recording device captures sounds or speech that is not taking place in the physical environment at the time of recording.
Paranormal investigators use this as a technique to communicate with the spirit world. Series of questions are asked that are sometimes followed with an answer from an unknown presence. This can only be heard during a playback of the recording. Sometimes the answers are intelligently interactive with responses and sometimes sounds or speech can appear that has little to do with the series of questions being asked.
Anyone can record EVPs. You can use any type of recorder: digital recorder or tape recorder. Though, the better the device records, there will be a better chance for clarity of the EVP.
When you start an EVP session, introduce yourself, invite the spirits to come speak with you, and inform them of your intentions.
During your EVP session do not have a lot of general conversations going, avoid whispering, and make sure you talk clear. This will ensure there is zero human contamination on the playback recording.
Also, be sure to allow an appropriate amount of time between each question for any responses you may get.
Samples of some good questions to ask during an EVP session is "What is your name?", "Why are you here?", "Are you alone?", and "Do you have a message?".
