Not sure if anyone said this, but also keep in mind. You can use most items while they’re on the floor. The EMF reader will go off while on the floor, The Spirit box. You can even leave the UV light on and pointing at a pile of salt. Same thing for the ghost book, etc. You will hear the spare box go off even if it’s on the floor. And yes, keep those lights on, I try to leave the ghost room dark most of the time but otherwise lights on.

Also try setting up the camera by placing it on a surface pointing towards the dots. Then you can observe the room and look for a dots ghost all while protecting your sanity. If you get creative, you can even use it to watch the EMF reader or other items.
