Physical phenomena, most commonly poltergeist activity, involve the spontaneous movement of objects, which are widely reported as part of spontaneous cases but are rarely observed occurring on command. Capturing evidence of such activity requires either proof that movement has occurred or capturing the movement itself on video.

To obtain credible evidence, it is best to avoid having the research team present, as this will rule out the possibility that human movement has unintentionally caused objects to shift in unpredictable ways. This experiment might involve placing cameras in a location where physical phenomena have been reported and leaving them recording for an extended period. Ensuring that the camera's view is well-lit is essential, as it allows any movement to be clearly seen. Keeping lighting consistent also helps rule out the possibility that something appears to be moving due to changes in light sources.

The drawback to this approach is the amount of footage...
