alice box itc word bank

In the world of paranormal research, the search for the most effective ghost hunting word generator is a top priority for investigators. While many devices claim to bridge the gap between our world and the next, the Alice Box has stood the test of time as a pioneer in ITC (Instrumental Trans-Communication) technology.

Originally developed by programmer Jo Saul in 2012, the Alice software was designed to give a voice to the unseen. Today, this legacy is preserved through a range of dedicated hardware. To ensure you are using the authentic algorithms and original source code developed by Jo Saul, it is essential to source your equipment correctly. As of 2026, Infraready Ltd is the exclusive UK manufacturer and distributor of approved Alice hardware. Every official device—from the Alice DNA to the NEO—is hand-built in our UK facilities to guarantee software integrity, warranty and repairs.

For those looking to connect with the community and stay updated, the official Alice Box Facebook group is the central hub for user stories, technical support, and the latest news directly from the developers.

Understanding Ghost Hunting Word Banks

A ghost hunting word bank functions differently than a standard spirit box. Instead of scanning radio frequencies, a device like the Alice Box uses unique internal algorithms based on the Tusi Couple, a system so unique that, as legend has it, the program effectively “named itself” Alice during its very first trial.

These routines allow environmental or psychokinetic influences to select specific words from a deep, pre-programmed library. This technology has been featured in numerous high-profile investigations and publications, including Haunted Magazine, which has documented the device’s evolution from its original PC software roots to the modern hardware investigators use today.

The Alice Box is frequently used by professional investigators such as Barri Ghai and high-profile teams like Sam and Colby, who rely on its ability to provide intelligent, relevant responses that go far beyond random chance.

The Alice ITC Range: A Model for Every Investigator

When searching for a word generator for ghost hunting, it is important to choose a model that fits your specific environmental needs. Here is an overview of the current approved range:

  • Alice ITC Box (Classic): The definitive standalone word generator. It utilizes the original Jo Saul code to provide clear, audible English responses via a built-in speaker and LED display.
  • Alice NEO: The most advanced model in the lineup, featuring a massive 10,000-word bank. It includes a “Meteor” LED chase sequence that visually indicates when the device is being influenced by external energy.
  • Alice DNA & Retro Editions: These devices focus on the “DNA” of the original 2012 software. The Retro edition offers a vintage aesthetic while the DNA focuses on high-sensitivity psychokinetic interaction.
  • Alice Tusi & Alice Cubik: The Tusi edition features a multi-line OLED display for tracking word history, while the Cubik provides a compact, modern interface. Both are designed for ease of use in the field. The Cubik also has EMF sensing trigger modes and many other features hidden in its secret developer menu.
  • Multi-Language Support: Selected models now offer word banks in English, French, German, Bulgarian, Hungarian, and Italian, making them the most versatile ITC word generators on the market.

User Insights: Pros, Cons, and Pro-Tips

The Alice Box is often compared to other devices like the Hexcom, Spirit Chat and the Ovilus, but many users find the specificity of the Alice word bank to be its greatest strength.

The Pros: Real-world feedback often highlights the “spooky accuracy” of the device. One user noted: “The Alice Box doesn’t just throw out random words; it seems to chime in exactly when the atmosphere changes.” Another believer shared that during a session, the device named a specific family member, which they felt was “impossible to be mere coincidence.”

The Cons & How to Overcome Them:

  • Complexity: Some find the “Seeking” phase takes patience.
    • Solution: Treat the device with respect and give it time to calibrate to the room’s energy.
  • Skepticism of Randomness: Skeptics often point to the “Texas Sharpshooter” fallacy.
    • Solution: Even skeptics have noted that the device “actually works well as a trigger tool.” To get the best results, use the Alice Box alongside an EMF meter. If the word generator speaks at the exact moment your EMF meter spikes, you have much stronger evidence of an intelligent interaction. Built on Customer feedback, the Alice Cubik now includes an EMF trigger mode!
    • Availability: The Alice often sells out quick and the Infraready store only tends to be open for the first week or two of every month.
    • Solution: Just get in touch, we have a short pre-order waiting list, usually no longer than the 1st of the following month. No upfront payment is needed. You can contact us via the contact form on our website or the a quicker response the Whatsapp number shown in our ‘Contact Us’ page.

Maximising Your Results

To use the Alice Box to its full potential, remember that it is a tool for experimental research. There is no guarantee of spirit communication, but following these steps can help:

  1. Clear Intent: Speak clearly to the room and explain how the device works.
  2. Validation: Keep a log of the words. Does “Water” appear when you are near a pipe? Does “Cold” appear during a temperature drop?
  3. Authenticity Matters: Because the software is proprietary, only devices purchased directly via infraready.co.uk are recognized as containing the approved Alice software. Technical support and warranty validations are exclusively reserved for these authentic UK-built units.

Whether you are looking for a ghost hunting word generator to start your journey or a professional-grade word bank to add to your kit, the Alice Box remains the most trusted name in the industry. Join the Alice Box User Page on Facebook to share your evidence and join the global ITC community.

For a deeper look into the history and development of this groundbreaking software, you can visit the official Alice Box page by original author Joanne Saul at www.alicebox.co.uk, which serves as the definitive resource for the story behind the code.

Mastering the Spirit Portal

Mastering the Spirit Portal: A Step-by-Step Guide to Effective EVP Sessions

1. Introduction: Beyond the Static

You’ve invested in one of the most advanced pieces of paranormal investigation gear available: the clean sweep Spirit Portal. Congratulations! Unlike traditional spirit boxes that often leave investigators guessing through noisy radio sweeps, the Spirit Portal is engineered to create a clearer, more consistent energetic channel. This guide will walk you through the precise steps to prepare your device, conduct a focused EVP session, and maximize your chances of receiving intelligent, compelling communication.

Spirit Portals Archives – Ghost Hunting Equipment by Infraready

2. Preparation: Setting the Scene for Clear Communication

Step 1: Optimize Your Environment

Before powering up, the environment is key.

  • Minimize Interference: Turn off all non-essential electronics, mobile phones (or put them on airplane mode), and other devices that might generate extraneous EMF, which can interfere with the Portal’s delicate workings.
  • Establish Quiet: Choose a time and location where external noise (traffic, heating systems) is minimized. The Spirit Portal excels at clear audio, and external noise will degrade the quality of any responses.
  • Get Ready to Record: The Spirit Portal’s best feature is real-time communication, but evidence must be logged. Use a dedicated digital audio recorder or a voice memo app on a separate device to record the entire session. This allows for later review and validation of potential EVP hits.

Power and Familiarization

Ensure your Spirit Portal is fully charged or has fresh batteries. Take a moment to understand the controls—specifically, the volume, sweep rate, and any adjustable filter controls. For beginners, start with the recommended factory settings, adjusting only the volume to a comfortable, medium level.

The Session: Asking the Right Questions

The Introduction and Intent Setting

Don’t just turn it on and wait. Begin every session by clearly addressing the energy in the room. This shows respect and structure.

  • State Your Purpose: “Hello. We are here respectfully to conduct a communication experiment. We mean you no harm.”
  • Confirm the Device: Clearly state that you are using a Spirit Portal and that you are inviting intelligent response through the device. This educates the entity on the medium you are using.
  • Be Patient: Give the energy a few moments to understand your intent and gather the necessary energy to communicate.

Structuring Your Questions

The quality of your questions dictates the quality of your evidence. Avoid yes/no questions at first, and focus on those that require more complex, intelligent responses.

  • Good Starter Questions: “What is your name?” “What year did you live here?” “Can you tell us what we are holding?” (This prompts interaction with the device itself.)
  • Wait Time: After each question, allow a full 10 to 15 seconds of silence for a response to form through the Portal before moving on. Do not interrupt a potential communication attempt.
  • Persistence: If you receive a clear response, follow up immediately. If the voice says “Help,” ask, “How can we help you?” Intelligent follow-ups are the hallmark of a successful session.

Post-Session and Review

Logging and Reviewing Evidence

Once the session is complete, thank the energy present and formally end the communication experiment. This is crucial for investigator safety and maintaining control.

  • Log Immediately: Note the time, location, any environmental factors (was a door slammed?), and any responses you heard in real-time.
  • Detailed Review: The real work begins now. Listen to your recorded audio on headphones. Often, faint voices or responses you missed in the moment will become clear upon review.
  • Cross-Reference: Did the Spirit Portal give a name while your Spirit Bridge detected a sharp EMF spike? This cross-referencing of equipment data (as detailed in our Beginner’s Guide (link to Pillar)) dramatically strengthens your evidence.

Conclusion: Your Gateway to Intelligent EVP

The Spirit Portal is the clear choice for investigators in the UK serious about intelligent spirit communication. By following this structured approach, you move away from random noise and toward direct, verifiable contact.

Ready to take your first steps into the world of paranormal investigation? Choosing the right ghost hunting equipment in the UK is the most crucial part of any successful investigation. Forget shaky handheld cameras and vague feelings; modern paranormal gear allows us to gather clear, repeatable data and present credible evidence to the paranormal community whether that be within your own group or to your followers on social media platforms. This comprehensive guide from Infraready breaks down the essential tools, explains how they work, and helps you select the best paranormal investigation gear to start capturing your own evidence.



Capturing the Unseen Voice (EVP & Communication)

The Art of Conversation: EVP and Spirit Communication Devices

The most common sign of a spirit is a voice—often called an Electronic Voice Phenomenon (EVP). Simple digital recorders are the basic starting point, but experienced investigators in the UK know that direct communication tools can yield immediate, intelligent responses. These devices often use radio frequencies or complex algorithms to give spirits the energy and means to communicate.

Lets take a closer look at some of these devices.

  1. The Spirit Portal: The Gold Standard for Real-Time Communication For the beginner looking for serious results, the Spirit Portal is revolutionary. It moves beyond simple radio sweeps by blending frequencies and providing a constant, energetic stream that spirits can manipulate for clear, real-time responses. If you want to move past simple static and hear full words or phrases, this is the device you need.

  1. The Alice Box: Advanced Algorithmic Communication The Alice Box is a sophisticated piece of ghost hunting equipment that uses complex algorithms and word-banks, allowing you to ask questions and receive relevant answers through synthesized speech. This removes the ambiguity of static and helps filter out false positives, offering some of the clearest communication available for paranormal investigators.

Detecting Energy and Presence (EMF & Sensors)

Understanding the Energy: EMF Meters and Environment Sensors

Fluctuations in the Electromagnetic Field (EMF) are a classic indication of a paranormal presence. A simple handheld EMF meter is a non-negotiable item in any ghost hunting kit. It’s used to detect unexplained spikes in magnetic energy, which many theories suggest spirits use to manifest or move. However, the best equipment goes further, tracking not just EMF, but temperature, light, and motion.

Monitoring EMF Spikes: Precise measurement of magnetic fields.

Temperature Drops: Pinpointing the notorious ‘cold spots.’

Vibration and Motion: Detecting movement that could indicate interaction.

Capturing Visual Proof (SLS and Cameras)

The Proof is in the Picture: Advanced Visual Documentation

While audio evidence can be compelling, visual proof is the gold standard and is the easiest way to present evidence to others for consideration. In the darkness of a haunted location, a standard camera is useless. You need devices that can see beyond the human eye—specifically, infrared and full-spectrum technology. The traditional choice is a basic infrared (IR) camera, which only captures a flat, 2D image.

The Game Changer: The V2 SLS Camera
For groundbreaking, compelling visual evidence, the V2 SLS (Structured Light Sensor) Camera is unmatched. Unlike a flat IR camera, the SLS system projects a grid of infrared light into the environment. Its sensor then tracks any distortions in that grid, reconstructing it into a 3D skeletal figure in real-time.

SLS Camera For Ghost Hunting V1 And V2 Stickman Sensors and Apps

3D Mapping: Captures the shape of an entity, proving the anomaly is not just dust, shadow, or lens flare.

Real-Time Evidence: See potential non-human figures moving and interacting with the environment as it happens.

Our V2 is a trusted piece of paranormal investigation gear designed for high-performance and durability.

By combining the V2 SLS with an EMF meter, you can visually confirm a figure right as an energy spike occurs.

Essential Core Gear

The Essentials: Gear You Must Always Carry

Before you invest in advanced communication gear, every investigator needs to cover the basics. These are the items that ensure safety, reliable documentation, and logistical success:

Lighting: A durable, reliable flashlight (torch) and a headlamp (to keep hands free). Always carry spare batteries!

Recording: A high-quality digital audio recorder for traditional EVP sessions.

Safety: A first aid kit and a portable power bank (you don’t want your gear dying mid-investigation).

Documentation: A pen and notebook for logging environmental data, personal experiences, and timestamping events.

Starting Your Journey as a UK Paranormal Investigator

The goal of ghost hunting isn’t just to buy equipment—it’s to gather credible evidence. By starting with foundational gear and strategically investing in advanced, high-performance tools like the Spirit Portal, V2 SLS, and Spirit Bridge, you are giving yourself the best chance to capture ground-breaking evidence in the UK’s most haunted locations.

KII EMF Meter Modifications

1 Comment

genuine kii meter modified

You’ve possibly seen our tutorial video showing you how to add sound to your KII meter. Its a tricky but easy enough mod to add a chirping noise to one of the most well known pieces of equipment used for ghost hunting and seeking out EMF.

Importing all of KII meters directly from KII Enterprises means that we only stock genuine KII devices and are only one of two companies within the UK that do. The majority of KII meters found on Ebay are a fraction of the cost but unfortunately fake! Another benefit of buying our KII meters directly from KII is that all of our latest stock of K-II meters have the latest S2a Revision Printed Circuit Boards inside. Due to the smaller size of components used on the new style boards, there is a little more room left inside the device of which Infraready have taken full opportunity to squeeze in some additional circuitry and have released two new modded KII meters to the paranormal field for testing throughout February 2020.

KII Mark Williams of The Ghost Finder Paranormal Society kindly offered to road test our latest KII Mods at Ettington Park.

Movie clips of the new mods can be seen at the bottom of the page and assuming that all tests go well will be available at infraready.co.uk on 1st March 2020

#Paraunity At The Village Mansfield

Lee Roberts The Village

#Paraunity At The Village Mansfield With Infraready, Lee Roberts and Ryan Griffiths of The Hauntings, Ash Buckenham, Mark Williams and Kate Ray of The Ghostfinder Paranormal Society, Miki York, Andy Bavington of TeamSpiritz, Cee n Dee, Fox Trot Oscar, Kelly J Ellis and Ness, The Hauntings, Ross and Team From Wednesbury Paranormal And A Host Of Amazing Guests. An not forgetting Spooks and Crooks who was recording their latest Podcast.

Lee Roberts The Village

So how could I let the #Paraunity opportunity pass? Ash Buckenham had arranged a ~Paraunity events at the Village, Mansfield. A Haunted Location managed by the One and Only Mr Lee Roberts. (Top Bloke!)

Unfortunately I was not in a position to attend the #Paraunity event and as such had to decline the invite. Having work closely with Mark Williams, one of the GPS team members for many months developing equipment for upcoming events and TV for his fellow team members Barri Ghai, he convinced me that I should turn up as a suprise which I clearly did!

Ryan was the first to recognise my face, closely followed by Lee. the Penny then dropped with Ash, he was very grateful of my attendance to
#Paraunity .

The Village is an excellent place, even better with so many great paranormal enthustiasts under the one roof. The group split into three, all grpus rotated through three zones. i had the pleasure of having free reign and spent time with all of the teams and #Paraunity guests. Several of the newbies were closely protected by Kate as they seemed to be targetted by what was out there.

Before the #Paraunity event got in to full swing, I was interviewed by Spooks and Crooks. They was very suprised when I responded to their first question asking me whether I had seen a ghost. i explained that I was a skeptic, they found that quite amusing due to the fact that I own Infraready and build and sell ghost hunting equipment and paranormal kit.

I explained that when I started Infraready, converting digital cameras for photography was the sole purpose of my business, Infra Red cameras Ready To Shoot Photos, Infraready was born!

After being contacted by many Paranormal Enthusiasts since 2010 my services providing similar cameras that allowed full spectrum nightvison capable recordings became very popular and the transition rapidly moved Infraready from being a Camera Store to A Full Blown Ghost Hunting Equipment Specialist who gets frequent invites to events such as
#Paraunity.

I explained to Spooks and Crooks that without such close contacts within the paranormal Circles, the credibility of my business as a skeptic would be questionable but in a sense it works extremely well. Experts such as Lee, Ash, Ryan, Miki have all inspired me to develop and build new equipment which has helped me to evolve Infraready and has allowed them to explore new areas during investigations.

So its a win-win situation, true #Paraunity . The paranormal experts receive the latest quality ghost hunting equipment built to spec which is fully tested out in the filed before it goes on sale to the general public. So before I take money out of the hands of my customers, all equipment has been throughly tested and is fit for purpose. So as a skeptic I have on tap supply of expert resource out within the field that road test all of Infrareadys ghost hunting equipment, advise improvements and provide true and accurate descriptions for the equipment thats up for sale.

Now thats what you called #Paraunity

So thats enough about me and Infraready, or at least for now. I’ll tell you a bit more about some of the Lead Investigators.

Andy Bavington Founder Of Team Spiritz

https://teamspiritz.webs.com/meettheteam.htm

I am Spirit Sensitive been doing paranormal Investigations for 12 years now (with a 3 year break when I had Cancer)

Team Spiritz been running for 10 years and only work on an independent basis and dont do event, but me personally are happy to tag along and guest on other Teams events,I am sceptical on Paranormal Equipment but am more than happy to work alongside it for any sort of intelligent response from any residing spirit, 

As a team we work more on the spiritual side with traditional methods, such as Glass divination, Pendulm work, and trigger objects with very little use of Paranormal Technology,

It was an honour to be asked by Ashley to join the Paraunity team and work alongside everyone and doing my own section with the energy Circle, which brought forward some very strong energy and affected a few people within the circle, and I will look forward to more Paraunity Events in the Future as it’s a great way to put ideas forward to each other and work as one.

Haunted Live Host Some Amazing Ghost Hunts Around The UK, One Location Which They Frequent Is Bosworth Hall.

The Group members are Jason, Simon, Andy And Paul, While I have written an article for the Haunted Magazine, I have never had the opportunity to meet the team until late.

The https://www.haunteddigitalmagazine.com/

I have supplied Paul with Equipment on past occasions to test out in the field for the live stream sessions. I was delighted when Paul contacted me again earlier in 2019 regarding an opportunity to test out more ghost hunting equipment built by Infraready and a request to build an new illuminator for use during their livestreams.

I was kindly invited along to Bosworth Hall to join the team, I must say it was a tota delight, a really great bunch who know their stuff (and lay on a wicked buffet before the night started).

Infraready presented their lastest spirit portal with reverb and DSP sound effects including reverse and spee control sampling for the team to put to the test, the results were very pleasing.

While at the event I also had the privelage to meet Vicky, Author of the Dead Central Paranormal Blog, check out the link
https://deadcentral.blog/

Finally, I also met Neil Packer, Founder of the Haunted Antiques Paranormal Research Centre. Neil is an absolute star, a pleasure to talk to, you can find out more about the centre on his facebook page

Paul explained the concept of Haunted Live…

“We visit haunted locations and ghost hunt for two hours, the difference being is that we do it LIVE on Facebook, no script, no ad breaks, just completley raw, live and unedited PLUS the viewer can interact and tell us what they’ve seen, they’ve heard and be our extra eyes and ears. #DontBeNormal BE PARANORMAL!!We also run ghost events… they’re very good, even though we do say so ourselves”

So a great night had by all, with some great results from our equioment.
