""What infrasound may do is supply a bit of bodily discomfort that a ghost or haunting explanation can then attach itself to," Rodney Schmaltz stated. "For someone who is not inclined to think in terms of ghosts, the same sensation would probably just register as a stuffy, uncomfortable old building.""
""During half of these tests, the researchers played infrasound without telling the participants. Not only were the participants unable to tell when the infrasound waves were being emitted, but they acted more irritated and unsettled when they were, regardless of what music was playing.""
Research indicates that infrasound waves, emitted by old building systems, can negatively affect mood and create feelings of unease. This discomfort may lead individuals to interpret sensations as ghostly presences, particularly if they are predisposed to such beliefs. In experiments, participants exposed to infrasound while listening to music exhibited increased irritation and discomfort, even when unaware of the sound. The findings suggest that infrasound can influence perceptions of hauntings without the need for actual supernatural phenomena.
