Electronic Voice Phenomena (EVP); How EVP Was Discovered

Otherwise known as EVP, electronic voice phenomena is the recording of mysterious voices from “beyond.” Here’s what it is, how it works and how you can experiment with it

Mankind has long believed that it is possible to communicate with the dead. Attempts to do so have been made over the centuries through oracles, séances, mediums and psychics. Today, with a variety of electronic equipment at our disposal, there might be an easier, more effective way. And whether or not the results really are communication with the dead - or something else - the results seem to be quite real. Here’s what you need to know about it, how you can hear samples and how you can try it!

What is electronic voice phenomena?

Electronic voice phenomena - or EVP - is a mysterious event in which human-sounding voices from an unknown source are heard on recording tape, in radio station noise and other electronic media. Most often, EVPs have been captured on audiotape. The mysterious voices are not heard at the time of recording; it is only when the tape is played back that the voices are heard. Sometimes amplification and noise filtering is required to hear the voices.

Some EVP is more easily heard and understood than others. And they vary in gender (men and women), age (women and children), tone and emotion. They usually speak in single-words, phrases and short sentences. Sometimes they are just grunts, groans, growling and other vocal noises. EVP has been recorded speaking in various languages.

The Alpha Mystery

In late 1982, an serendipitous combination of events involving an amateur inventor, a radio alarm clock, and a timely coffee break led to the development of a powerful new tool for study of the Electronic Voice Phenomenon-which some believe allows communication with the deceased.

The Hand of Fate

Alexander MacRae, a college lecturer in microelectronics from the Highland region of Scotland, was carrying out some private experiments. MacRae had invented a system he called the “Alpha.” The Alpha consisted of a biofeedback unit connected to a crude speech synthesizer. On the night of December 17th, 1982, MacRae was trying to increase the sensitivity of the device. It was proving to be a difficult task.

Just after seven o’clock, he decided to break for a cup of coffee. To clear some space in his work area, he placed the Alpha on top of a clock radio sitting on a side table. The alarm was set to go off at seven o’clock-it was one of those alarms that does not distinguish between seven in the morning and seven in the evening. Thus, at seven that evening, the radio automatically switched on. The radio was not tuned to a station, and nothing was heard until the Alpha was placed on top of it. Read more …

The Disturbing Implications of Electronic Voice Phenomena

EVP: Beyond White Noise

Electronic voice phenomena is today one of the most fascinating areas of paranormal research. Human-sounding voices from unknown origin are recorded on such electronic media as tape recorders, digital voice recorders, video recorders and other devices. Strangely, the voices are not heard at the time of the recording; it is only when the recording is played back that the voices are heard.

(Contrary to the premise of the film White Noise, EVPs are very often found without the use of “white noise” – random static from a radio or television – although this method has been used successfully.)

The phenomenon has been experienced and documented virtually since the invention of recording devices. Skeptics reasoned that the voices were caused by stray radio broadcasts or pre-recorded voices on re-used tapes. EVP researchers were quick to dismiss the second reason, affirming that they only used sealed new tapes for their recordings. And then, of course, digital recorders, which require no tapes, made that argument irrelevant – the voices still showed up.
