Mikayla Ames worked alongside Dr. Rodney Schmaltz to research infrasound – noises that are unnoticeable to the human ear but can be detected by the body – in “haunted” locations.
With spikes of stress and physical discomfort around these sounds, the unease attributed to paranormal activity might have a scientific explanation.
