About

"Paranormal Observation" is a ghost hunting game where you investigate paranormal activities from the safety of your computer in a basement observation room. Using advanced tools like an EMF meter, temperature meter, and UV light, you'll identify different ghost types across various difficulty levels and maps. Once you've identified the ghost, use the Exorcism module to remove it from the building.
