A new wave of ghostbusters equipped with the latest technology are braving Queensland's haunted hot spots looking for things that go bump in the night.
Matthew Zyderveld, core member of newly minted Brisbane Amateur Paranormal Investigators, began researching ghost-detecting gadgets after reality TV rekindled his interest in the supernatural.
"I started looking around online to see how much equipment was, and I realised 'Hey, it's cheap. I can afford this'," he said.
The basic equipment the group uses on a ghost hunt includes an electromagnetic field meter, available for around $60 online, a voice recorder, an infrared thermometer to check for temperature fluctuations, a digital camera and a 99 cents smart phone app that claims to translate supernatural communication into English.
Mr Zyderveld and fellow investigator Andrew Small have already used their equipment to investigate two supposedly haunted locations in Brisbane including historic Wolston House, an 1852 National Trust homestead with a reputation as a haunt for troubled souls.
