The Paranormal Investigators Journal

A structured companion for documenting your investigations.


Six cases. Six experiments. One place to bring your observations together.

Created from my own field notes, this journal helps you record case details, document reported activity and build a timeline of events.


About the journal

The Paranormal Investigators Journal was originally an idea I had to help structure my own notes around documenting investigations. The concept of how to document our investigations has been very close to my heart over the years.

Over the years, I have had the pleasure of working with some amazing investigators all with their own approaches and focus points, but one particular investigator has always shown the same focus on detail and documentation as I have. Graham Smith has tirelessly attempted to ensure that a standard paranormal case file be out there for all to use. The problem has been that the kind of detail Graham and I would include may not be everyone’s goal and can be quite time consuming to gather.

I have also added in six of my favourite simple experiments too, for you to try out whilst investigating. All of which have yielded some interesting results over the years.
