"For most of these places, we have scientific reasons for what happens," Haring said. "I remember at the Webb City Health and Rehab Center, we tried to sleep in this room where most of the stories came from about people waking up seeing things flying around. It was hard to breathe. Some people felt like something was pressing down on their chests. Dogs wouldn't even go up there. We found out, though, that there was a large concentration of carbon monoxide in the room."
Sometimes, however, places like the Prosperity Bed and Breakfast offer a serving of spiritual surprise that no one can explain. Here, the Ghosthunters captured a picture of a face on a mirror that not even professionals can recreate.
"I don't even think it's a reflection in the mirror," Haring said. "If you look close enough it's in front of a lamp but behind the picture frame, so it's not actually light reflecting out of the mirror."
Only a random chance provided the opportunity to take that photo, and no one has explained this apparition. But the MoSo Ghosthunters know that the ghost hunting game balances perception and chance.
Luck seemed to be on the side of the gawkers on that crowded road in Oklahoma. Unexpectedly, a faint light flares up in the distance. A woman's fingers faltered across her upper lip.
"There it is!" she said.
Within three seconds, the Light brightened and grew. Then, it vanished just as it appeared, without fanfare. Like the Light, the spectators dispersed in the darkness and disappeared down the road, destined to spread the story.
