General POV

Most hauntings occur on the site of a historical tragedy, whether it be a murder, a suicide, an untimely death due to illness, or an accident such as a car crash, drowning, or fatal fall. The tragedy may even pre-date the property you're researching. For this reason, in order to get the full picture, you should research the history of not only the property you are investigating but also the immediate area around the property.
