Establishing: Example/Illustration |
| We see the investigators telling their experiences of encounters with ghost |
Based on: Prestige- The quality of a person known by her/his effects. | We see the investigators saying I witnessed, or I had a personal experience. | In the report we see that the investigators clarify what equipment they are using and list where they set up cameras. Demonstrating that they know what they are doing and have done this many times. |
Based On: Exception- Act is exceptionally unique |
| “I found this choice of words fascinating due to the remark that I made and although it could be entirely coincidental, I believe someone that we could not see did not appreciate my humor too much!”
|
Based On: Coexistence- A person/manifestations argument. | "I would like to review this footage again at some point in the future to try and figure out what it could be." "I will add to this report once all of the footage has been looked over and discuss any findings that may have been recorded." | They are hinting at the fact that there was activity in the building and that they are willing to go back and look more into their footage. Manifesting that something was there or could be there.
|
Premise/Modifiers: Facts/Truths Presence |
| We see video evidence of the encounters the investigators had. As well as discussing whether those encounters could have been flaws. |
Emotional Appeal
|
| Lisa was asking questions when it clearly said “terrible”. I felt very sad hearing that, not in a paranormal sense, but just my normal sense of compassion. I was a little unsettled with that.
|
Post Hoc |
| While setting –up Jim told me that more often then not activity occurs during the set-up.

Question Begging |
| After looking at the reply on Dale’s camera, it could have been a flashlight that panned across the hallway, but then again it did look as if it had some type of form to it. |
