I ask this because there are some who are under the opinion that EVPs are scientifically credible. There is a host of reasons why they are not, pareidolia and apophenia being chief among them. But I would like to offer the opportunity to "scientific" investigators of the paranormal to try to rescue EVPs from the dustbin of pseudoscience by coming up with an explanation for how ghosts make these sounds.
Please be scientific. That is, your explanation has to be firmly grounded in established science, not conjecture. Here's some things to get you thinking:
If a ghost creates a sound, how does it mechanically create the pressure wave if the ghost doesn't have mass?
If you posit energy of some kind, define it, tell me where it comes from using mathematical equations or appeals to established science.
If a ghost doesn't have vocal cords, how does it make a sound just like a human voice?
Thanks and good luck!
