About Spotted Ghosts
Paranormal investigation apps, devices and connected software — developed with curiosity, built through experimentation and brought together under one name.
The person behind Spotted Ghosts
Spotted Ghosts isn’t just a company, it’s the result of one person’s unwavering love for the paranormal. Since starting Spotted Ghosts, I’ve been dedicated to creating innovative apps and tools that empower investigators to uncover the unknown.
As a passionate inventor and developer, I have been creating paranormal tools and apps since 2013, blending cutting-edge technology with a love for the unknown.
I’m proud to design and produce all my creations in-house, within my small invention and manufacturing company called S:G Technology, where I oversee every step of the process, including designing and 3D-printing the custom cases that house my inventions. This hands-on approach ensures that every product is built to the highest standards, with attention to detail in both functionality and design.
You’ll often find me out exploring haunted locations (mainly medieval ruins and old church / graveyards) and testing my creations in real-world scenarios. My love for discovery drives every project, whether it’s developing wearable tech like the Spirit Talker Lite or creating fun and functional items like my Mayan Death Whistle Keyrings.
Together, we’re not just exploring the paranormal, we’re redefining it. Backed by my expertise in computer science and astrophysics, I combine cutting-edge technology with a deep curiosity for the unknown to create tools that push all the boundaries of discovery.

Seven devicesIn the current investigation range
From an idea to a working device
Development extends beyond writing software. Through S:G Technology, the work includes device design, firmware, prototypes and the custom 3D-printed cases that house the equipment.
Developing the apps and physical devices together allows their features to work as part of a connected setup, from the controls on a device to its view in ParaLink-Mesh.
The current device range
The range includes different ways to monitor an investigation, from environmental recordings to scanning displays and sensor-triggered devices.
SpecTracer
A scanning device for comparing readings and exploring changes across a sweep.
EchoTracer
Ultrasonic scanning for viewing distance readings and changes across the scan area.
WaveTracer
An mmWave radar device for visualising motion and target positions.
ENVIRON
Environmental monitoring and CSV data logging for reviewing sensor readings over time.
Spirit Bell
A physical bell that responds to changes detected by its enabled sensors.
Spirit Music Box
A physical music box mechanism with sensor-based triggering.
Spirit Talker Lite
A wearable device that brings Spirit Talker into a dedicated piece of equipment.
Connecting equipment and exploring recordings
ParaLink-Mesh
ParaLink-Mesh brings supported Spotted Ghosts devices into one Android app for live viewing and remote control. It connects over a local Wi-Fi network or phone hotspot.
Supported features include synchronising device clocks with the phone and adjusting the start and end scan positions on compatible SpecTracer and EchoTracer firmware.
ENVIRON Viewer
ENVIRON Viewer turns CSV recordings from the ENVIRON device into interactive graphs, making it easier to examine readings and compare changes after an investigation.
A growing collection of apps
Mobile apps remain a central part of Spotted Ghosts. The collection includes sensor tools, camera apps, sound experiments, recording tools and virtual reality experiences.
- Spirit Talker ® — A sensor-based ITC word generator.
- ALDOUS — A video-based spirit box using short clips from a changing stream of videos.
- MeshTigator — LiDAR and AR tools for visualising surroundings, with an SLS-style body tracking mode.
- SG LiDAR Camera — Camera tools using compatible devices’ LiDAR technology.
- Spirit Talker ® SLS Camera — Body and face-shape detection for camera-based experiments.
- S:G VR Experiments — Virtual reality experiences inspired by classic paranormal experiments.
Software and hardware, developed together
The relationship between an app and a physical device has been part of the development process for years. The Spirit Music Box range is one example, bringing sensor-based ideas into both software and physical mechanisms.
The wider range continues that approach: dedicated equipment for an investigation, apps for viewing and control, and software for reviewing recorded data.
