- DO bring bug spray. LOTS of bug spray.
- DO remember that you only need to be faster than the slowest person when trying to escape.
- DO try to be respectful of the ghosts you’re trying to make contact with.
- DO NOT be the last one behind in the group (the ghosts will get you!)
- DO NOT let the non-believers ruin your ghost hunting vibe.
- DO NOT believe everything you see: Keep an open mind, but also look for rational explanations!
- DO NOT go into the woods or abandoned buildings alone, or without notifying others.
