There is a movie that came out this year called White Noise. I haven't seen it yet, but it's premise is an interesting one. Apparently the film is about EVP or electronic voice phenomena.

Have you ever heard the humming of some kind of machinery or equipment but it almost sounded like words were being spoken? Maybe you could hear certain key phrases being said, sometimes over and over.

This EVP phenomena is, according to some, the attempts of spirits on the other side trying to communicate with people. Discarnate entities apparently want to have discussions and voice their opinions even though they no longer have a physical body.

Although it does sound strange, spiritual mediums and psychics have always claimed that it is possible to hear words and to carry on communication with spirits and angels and others who reside in another dimension.

So the next time you are making your morning coffee, listen closely to see if a spirit is trying to tell you something.

Apparently the followers of EVP say that it is possible to hear these words, phrases, messages, and communications through various types of electrical equipment, as long as there is some kind of sound or vibration that emits from the equipment.

They also say that EVP may be heard through static on a radio. Another method is to tune a radio to a foreign language station, and then spirit messages in English may be distinguishable that way as well.

I think this EVP phenomena can also apply to natural sounds. Maybe you remember a popular television commercial from a few years ago. The frogs are chirping away, and as you begin to listen to them more closely they seem to be saying "Bud" - "Weis" - "Er".
