A residual haunting is a playback of a past
event. The apparitions involved are not spirits, they are "recordings"
of the event. I believe that this will be the first type of haunting
that main stream researchers will recognize and study. There are
numerous theories on how these residual hauntings come to be. The main
one will be discussed here.
Video
and audio tapes capture sounds and images on a film of special material
that has been oxidized or rusted. Certain building materials, such as
slate used in older castles and stone structures and iron nails used in
many older buildings, have properties similar to that of the tapes.
When a traumatic event occurs or a time of heightened emotions, these
materials record the event for future playback. Everything is made up
of energy and energy cannot be destroyed. The materials store the
energy created by these traumatic events and plays them back at a later
time. The Tower of London's ghost of Anne Boleyn and the Brown Lady of
Raynham Hall are two famous examples of residual hauntings. We are not
sure what causes the playback of the events, that still remains a
mystery. Is it the right weather conditions, the witness's energy or
sensitivity or some type of energy release? That is the question that
we as researchers are trying to answer.
