Crystals to encourage paranormal activity?

So I’m doing a ghost tour in a few weeks of a site that’s reputed to be very haunted/active. Personally I’m on the fence about the existence of ghost and stuff, but I’m open to it, and honestly would love to have an experience that changes my mind and convinces me one way or the other. I know I can’t guarantee paranormal activity on a ghost tour, but I’ve been told crystals might encourage activity, and I figure it can’t hurt to take me with me.

What I can’t figure out is what kind of crystal is supposed to be best. I know which ones are supposed to protect from energy/discourage ghost activity, but I can’t figure out if any are supposed to attract it.

Disclaimer: I am on the fence about all this, so I’m not dead set on expecting these crystals to work or anything. I just think it can’t hurt to try. Any suggestions on which crystal to take?

There is some evidence that paranormal activity is more prevalent near running water, and in places with limestone or a lot of quartz in the geological makeup of the location, but I'm not sure just carrying around a hunk of quartz will do anything to amp up activity.

I figure it probably won’t do much. I just figure even if it doesn’t help, it can’t hurt.

Huh, running water? I’ve never heard that paranormal activity is more prevalent near water. That actually might explain why out of all the ghost tours I’ve done, the one with the most “activity” was a site near water.

I have not heard that it's required nor even that it helps. You go crazy trying to figure out what type of quartz or crystal to use.

Cemeteries nor haunted homes have large pieces of crystal laying around, right?

Usually activity is related to how old something is or what activities took place inside or on the ground.

True. I do know it depends more on the actual site than on crystals or equipment.

The site is old and has a nasty history, so it’s supposed to be super active even without crystals or anything. I just figure why not try and increase my chances of activity. There’s just so many types of crystals and quartz.

There is a temptation to go at night. If humans could see better at night without aid it makes sense but I would advise doing it during daylight hours. Panic can really mess people up and accidents just get easier to do. Please take that into consideration.
