Tools & Resources for Researchers

Essential equipment, software, databases, and reference materials for paranormal investigators and metaphysics researchers.

BTHL Investigation Software

Custom-built by Beyond The Horizon Labs. These are the same tools we use on every BTHL Radio investigation.

SpectraSentry Tactical Skanner

RF spectrum analyzer with 60fps waterfall spectrogram, SDR radio (6 demod modes), EVP audio monitoring with infrasound 19 Hz detection, TSCM counter-surveillance (spy cam/mic/evil twin WiFi detection), Skinwalker Ranch 1.6 GHz anomaly mode, and frequency generation with Solfeggio and Schumann resonance presets. Supports TinySA, GQ EMF-390, RF Explorer, and RTL-SDR hardware.

Getting Started as an Investigator

New to paranormal research? Start with the basics: a quality voice recorder (even a phone works), an EMF meter ($20-50), and a notebook. Document everything — time, location, weather, your emotional state. The most important tool is your own awareness and willingness to observe without judgment.
