You Know You're a Ghost Hunter When...

Here's one especially for the paranormal investigators...It's eerie how true some of these are!  Feel free to add your own additions to the list and/or experiences in the Comments section.

You Know You're a Ghost Hunter When:

You get excited over photos most people throw away

You Make a game of blinding fellow hunters with your camera flash in the dark

Your used to getting blinded by camera flashes  in the dark

You pay to spend the night in old prisons

You have several objects that beep attached to you while hunting

You chase after weird sounds most people run away from

When you tell people your a ghost hunter, you get the same look as if you said you were an alien

You wear a flashlight on your head and don't feel like a dork

when you have hundreds graveyard of pictures saved on your computer

 when you have dozens of flashlights in you car...that don't work

 you've bought more than three digital cameras in the last month

You go through more batteries than a 6 year old

You know your a ghost hunter if your at this website

You return your new digital camera and explain to the store manager "I didn't get any pictures of ghosts with this damned thing! Give me my money back!"

When you spend more time in the cemeteries than you do at work.
