You could try the overused Ouija board. That is effective in places where spirits reside. Or you can spend some money on sensors, find some cold spots in haunted places, place some microphones and when you've detected a spirit, just directly speak to it.
And to those who say that spirits are not real, why bother answering this question if you're so sure they aren't real?
That's going to be difficult considering the fact that there's no such thing as spirits. That's just something for idiots to believe in.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
