His next words were little more than a murmur, but they fell like thunder. “They’re in the Ghost Forest.” The chamber plunged into dead silence. None of them even dared to breathe. The tales of the Ghost Forest were infamous, passed down as warnings whispered around firesides. It was said to be a realm of mist and shadows, a place no living soul would enter willingly.

Being a skeptic at heart, I found the equipment both interesting and amusing.

She endured the pain and pleaded, "Sir, I'll tell the truth, please ease up a little, I can't take it anymore." Elijah eased up a bit, finally giving the female ghost a chance to breathe. The female ghost took a deep breath and began, "Sir, my child and I have always lived in this apartment. But there was an accident before. I had just come back from grocery shopping with my child. As soon as we entered, I sensed something was wrong and smelled gas. Before we could leave, someone appeared behind us, pushed us inside, and blocked the door. The gas smell was overwhelming.
