Types of Ghosts
“As an investigator, you always want hardcore proof that (ghosts) exist and that they are present,” the 28-year-old said. “You also want to know why they’re here.”
McCain says there are several different types of ghosts that range from very intelligent to demonic and each one is unique.
Intelligent ghosts actually don’t know that they have died. These ghosts are characterized by cold spots, electrical voice phenomenon’s, orbs, shadows, mists and smoke.
Shadow people are very curious. They peer around corners and watch others. They are around three feet in height and act child-like.
Residual ghosts are trapped energy that that can only repeat the same movement or sound over and over again.
Poltergeists aren’t ghosts but a manifestation of human emotions. Very few adults experience this type of activity as it is more common in children. These ghosts can be a child's imaginary friend and are attracted to quartz, limestone and granite.
Demonic activity is very rare and normally centers around extremely religious people.
McCain encountered her first ghost while on board the Queen Mary at seven years old. She saw the spirit of a little girl while in the pool area and could hear her giggle as she disappeared behind a cement pillar. In addition to investigations, she also does ghost tours in San Diego.
