Why you shouldn’t be a ghost hunter

I got this letter from a fan and thought it was funny. Don’t be offended, I’m not saying I agree, I just thought it was funny. What do you think? -Sunshine

Dear Miss Sunshine,

I have watched your YouTube channel for a few months now. It’s cute. You’re cute. Your mom is cute. You guys have got it going on. But I think it’s a mistake if you decide to try and become a ghost hunter. Here’s 3 reasons why…

Clearly not married ghost hunter

Reason #1. Being a ghost hunter takes special skills that not many people have. First and foremost, you have to be an idiot. And not just any kind of an idiot, a very special form of idiot. You have to be totally adverse to the opposite sex. Have you ever met a married ghost hunter? Nope. In fact, have you ever met a ghost hunter after dark in a place where single people traditionally hang out to meet other single people? Nope. You know why? Because they’re usually spending their nights wandering through dark buildings, chasing figments of their imagination… or cooking microwave pizzas and debating the validity of their latest EVP meter purchase on an internet forum filled other people desperately trying to justify their own diversion to the opposite sex by claiming that ghosts are more important than moving out of their mom’s house and and seeing a girl naked in real life. Not that this applies to you. But you certainly don’t want to head down this road now do you?

Totally professional tool I’m sure

Reason #2. Being a ghost hunter is basically the equivalent of calling yourself a chef when all you cook is imaginary food. Think about it.

Reason #3. I’m not saying ghosts do exist but if they did, or do, that means they were humans once. In fact, what they are now is basically a human’s soul right? So let me get this straight, the very thing that separates us humans from most other creatures on this planet, the fact that we have a soul, is now the reason we’re being hunted in the middle of the night? And being hunted by lonely twits with no personality and an odd affinity for microwave piazza no less. So much for dignity in death.

There you have it. Three good reasons why you shouldn’t be a ghost hunter. I rest my case. Keep being awesome Sunny! – Ken

P.S. Reason #4. Ghost hunters on average have an I.Q. of 87…. well below average. It’s been proven by science.

Never met a ghost hunter that is married? I can give you two that are married with children. Jason Hawes and Grant Wilson. Whoever wrote this sounds like a lonely kid looking for attention.

O.K. my english ist realy shit, so hope you had someone to translate this.
Because I´m from Germany.

So, wenn ich das jetzt richtig verstanden habe, dann ist dieser lustige Brief hier eigentlich nur von einem der sehr Neidisch darauf ist, das du auf so eine idee kamst solche filme zu machen.
Ob die Stories nun echt oder unecht sind ist scheissegal…..
Sie sind spannend und trotz das mein englisch so mieserabel ist, habe ich die handlung verstanden. Apropo: bei einigen videos waren Deutsche übersetzungen bei, die aber kein Deutscher verstehen wird, weil die satztstellungen nicht passen, aber macht nicht.

Was ich aber schade finde ist, das solche filme (solche paranormalen aktivitäten) immer nur in den USA , England ect. gesehen/gedreht wird.

Magst nicht mal ein paar Stories aus Deutschland machen? Würde Dir auch helfen…..Liebe Grüsse Conny

  ok I used Googgle translater to tranlate it for you..some of it didnt translate tho sorry but you can get what he’s saying
  
  So if I understand correctly that now, then this funny letter is actually only one who is very jealous the fact that you came to such an idea to make such films.
  Whether the stories are real or fake is now a shit …..
  They are exciting and, despite my english is the Sun lousy portable, I understand the action. Speaking of: videos of some German translations were at, but which is understood no German, because do not fit satztstellungen, but does not.
  
  But what I think is a shame that such films (such paranormal activities) ect only in the USA, England. is seen / shot.
  
  Do not even make a few stories from Germany? Would you also help ….. Best regards Conny

  ghost hunting is real, in that it’s snhtemiog people actually do. Ghosts, on the other hand, are not real. I’d start at wikipedia, look up ghost, ghost hunter, etc. Stay away from ghost hunting sites they are not going to give you a neutral opinion, and shouldn’t be considered objective sources.

Wow, this guy is pretty good at reasons. Here is 1 reason why you shouldn`t become a ghost hunter. The bad thing a ghost hunter could do is witchcraft or any other evil things. I eat pizza anyways at sbarro`s. I am in the southeast not Mexico. I am not giving my location anyways because you could get robbed,or kidnapped. Alabama got 14 football championships! Roll Tide!

Ok here are 3 reasons why you shouldn’t become a ghost hunter.

Reason 1: It has been proven by science that if you are a ghost hunter your hair will turn purple with green polka dots. (saying something has been proven by science doesn’t mean it really was proven by science)

Reason 2: In order to be a ghost hunter you have to have some skills, for instance, ninja skills, and not just any ninja skills, you must have some super sweet ninja skills. If you don’t know how to be a ninja you can go to the Napoleon Dynamite School Of Sweet Ninja Skills. Plus you might also find some single people there, that way you aren’t a nerd anymore and you can get away from the stereotype that that Ghost Hunters are nerds living in their mommy’s basement. Not sure how being a ninja applies to Ghost Hunting other than it makes you cooler!!!

Reason 3: Ghosts don’t exist, but the boogyman under the bed and the closet DO exist, so lets get all the ghost hunters together and have them come over to my mom’s basement and have them help me remove the boogyman and the monsters for me. My mom is a lame nerd and won’t help, but one of these days they are going to venture out of their hiding spots in my room and come upstairs to hers and then she will be sorry.

There you have it. Three good reasons why you shouldn’t be a ghost hunter. I rest my case. Keep being awesome Sunny! – Ken

P.S. Reason 4: I clearly don’t know how to count properly to 3, and also want to say, I have no clue what I am talking about. But my mommy said this was a cute letter and I should send it. I have to go get ready for my date with my mommy now, she says I don’t need a girl, when all I need in life is her.

well i’d chalk that up as border line offensive if not completely offensive. if this person had taken the time to do some research he would know that many people who ghost hunt not only are successful in their career but also have families of their own.i would like to see where the information came from about ghost hunters having lower i.q.’s. especially to see what accredited facility performed the survey and test’s and see the data taken from said tests. what age group was the test performed on, race, sex, location. to be honest this whole thing is solely one persons opinion. which they are entitled to but why watch the videos then? why take the time when you basically say that the people who do ghost hunt suffer from idiocy? especially to someone who basically ghost hunts and is making a living from it. it’s insulting. as far as personality goes i think i have plenty so does Frances (Sunshine). you unsuccessfully butt kissed someone just to attack their life style. well done!

I think he needs to take the time to look up and find out facts before he writes a letter he has no clue about Ghost Hunting. Because (like a comment i just read on here) T.A.P.S. on Scifi channel. They both are married have a real daytime jobs and they hunt ghost; really to debunk ghost huntings. He is talking about idiots— well im afraid he made his self look a like big idiot.. Also sunshine its been a week already and no vidoes not even a bigger one on fridays. U cant be like the others an stop posting these videos, People like myself, look forward to seeing these clips is a better word because they are so short. I am amazed on ghost. My house is not haunted thank god. But i like the ides of watching and getting scared. I no longe mess with the Quita board because of something happened whn i was younger. Be very careful. Make sure u protect urself and it wouldnt hurt to burn sage and bless the house.

Even though I don’t think you’re a ghost hunter as much as you are…a well informed haunted sunshine girl…or something of that general nature, this was rather hilarious.

i have been exploring hauntings since i was ten years old and i have been to several haunted places and houses and honestly i am doing my own paranormal investigative journalism and i have a high IQ am engaged so those reasons are deficient reasons why not to become a paranormal investigator, and every paranormal investigator knows there are downsides to it but they are more realistic reasons the reason we investigate however is because the paranormal and the dead are enthralling entities that people should know mare about. the people who write letters like yours are just scared to do anything about it. and hitting on someone in such a lame way,like over the internet and even their mother is just stupid. shame on you.

My name is Jonathan Boyd, I am the founder of Central Arkansas Paranormal. I am married and have a beautiful 2 year old daughter. I have an I.Q. of 141. There is no such thing as an “EVP Meter.” EVP’s are Electronic Voice Phenomena, voices that can be picked up on a digital voice recorder, but cannot be heard with the naked ear at the time the phenomena happened. Ghost hunting is not like hunting an animal. There is no sport in it, and the investigators are the ones in danger, not the ghosts. Ghost hunting is nothing like “calling yourself a chef when all you make is imaginary food.” An imaginary chef would use imaginary utensils, ingredients, and cookware to create an imaginary product. Ghosts hunters use real equipment to capture real evidence in order to prove or disprove a haunting. If a haunting is confirmed, a ghost hunter uses the testimony and evidence gathered to form a hypothesis of the situation and plan a coarse of action for handling it. If a haunting is disproved, a ghost hunter presents their findings to the client in order to give them piece of mind and a better understanding of what is really going on.

Really foolish letter, if you ask me. Most “ghost hunters” I have met or seen on shows seem to be more intelligent than the average person. I think that everyone with the spark of curiosity has something that they are interested in, like cooking, or golf, or photography, etc. Some of us are very interested in “spirits”, ghosts, life after death, and other spiritual things. Those that can, ghost hunt, those that can’t, watch ghost hunters, read about and watch paranormal happenings and yearn for a reason to explain them. Are these people that were once alive? Are they something that emanates from ourselves? Are they things that exist in another dimension? Is there life after death for some? This type of speculation takes a very curious, and intelligent mind! Don’t kid yourself. These things do exist; what they are is anyone’s guess, but some of us want to explore this phenomena and find the answers, if possible. I’m a middle-aged woman, and I would venture that ghost “hunters” come in all ages, races and genders, and I doubt many of them are idiots who live in their grandma’s basement, or whatever you’re trying to imply. I think people like you are very simple-minded and can’t believe there may be something outside of the world we see. Maybe you’re afraid, or perhaps you can’t conceive of anything past the end of your nose, but don’t write ignorant letters about people and a subject that you obviously know nothing about!
