Ghost Hunting Classes
Ghost Hunting Classes
When taking a class offered by our organization, you receive a certificate of completion. This does not certify you as a member of our Investigative team. Our team is hand picked and undergoes extensive training beyond basic and advanced classes. We want present the most professional reputation and the only way to do so is to be very selective.
We offer many types of classes. Our basic 101 is for the ghost hunter that is just getting into this field. Our more advanced classes are for the more serious investigator. They go deeper into the science and documentation. The Advanced Classes at Gale's Vitamin Store build on each other and each class covered a different aspect of paranormal investigation. Along with public classes, we can also have private classes in your home. Please contact us for more information at soundslikeghosts@yahoo.com.
