Each experience provides equipment or access to ghost-hunting tools such as K2 meters, SLS cameras, and spirit boxes, and many events include live camera feeds and a heated base room for monitoring. Guided and self-guided formats are available; some investigations include volunteer guides or expert support while private bookings allow exclusive access and a dedicated base camp with up to eight camera feeds. Safety procedures and clear group limits are enforced for an intimate, controlled investigation environment. St. Ignatius Hospital appeals to guests seeking historical context, authentic atmosphere, and modern investigative tools while exploring reportedly haunted spaces.
