Residual haunting

The guy on TV that goes around solving people’s haunting experiences has me rolling on the floor laughing.  First of all, what is the likelihood that every episode results in him being able to add something to his collection AND solving his client’s issues?

I have yet to find a physics answer to residual hauntings.  I “could” be made to believe that an object holds special meaning to a soul that moved on.

If we follow this through, while there is an intersection between universes, the person or spirit could indeed be active, influenced by the fact that the item that holds special meaning.  However, for this type of haunting to persist/exist, the intersection would have to follow the object.  I do not see an intersection existing simple because an object exists.  I find that a physical relationship between an object and an intersection to be unsupported.

I welcome rebuttal over this point. Please feel free to use the comments to do so.

Do residual hauntings exist? This is a question I find myself being asked quite often, especially at the CNE where it is surrounded by such a rich and sometimes strange history.

The technical answer to this question is a complicated one, the short answer is no.

 A residual haunting is paranormal activity that occurs and re-occurs be it of sight or sound in the same manner each time without the ability to change, deviate or interact. From the observer’s point of view it seems like a recording being played out of some past event. Most investigators make the distinction that a residual haunting is unlike an intelligent haunting due to the fact it can not deviate from its routine and can not interact with the witness.

In this I agree, however I do profess that if the correct research is conducted on the location of the haunting then it is very possible to interrupt the occurrence and possibly changing the witnessed event.
