      I've done my own amateur ghost hunting, with a digital voice recorder, and picked up dozens of voices that I'd didn't hear at the time. Some of the ghost "hype" was promoted by Disney when they owned the ship, but I can attest that some of it is real. One recording from the empty boiler rooms on a private tour picked up "I'm still here, help me." I stopped going onboard because I didn't want anything following me home. Wish I hadn't done this stuff.
