So, I'm convinced there is some sort of entity in my apartment. I've been playing around with t he idea of trying and EVP experiment. But, here's the deal. I feel like by acknowledging that it's here, it may be more willing to make itself known to me-which I'm not exactly sure I want. I've had some experiences with it that honestly give me goose bumps when I think about them.
I'm just extremely curious about EVP but, I guess I just don't want to cause some unwanted activity!
Any thoughts?
I'm interested in this question also.
When it is completely quiet and still listen while you lie down and see if you hear a second party voice in your mind.Preferably on the bed in the dark.
Well...what makes you feel scared? Because a lot of it is in our perception. Things getting moved around and loud noises or pushes or shoves...could it not be a spirit that is merely trying to get your attention? It would have to be so frustrating not to be able to communicate. If you are concerned about protection from anything evil...a lot of that would fall into your own personal belief systems. Draw on what you believe is the positive central force and gain strength and protection from that belief.
I am wondering what in particular has you convinced that this is an entity...and why you believe it would cause you harm to communicate with it. Any doubt you have about it is only going to increase your fear.
I would suggest having a video camera to back up your recording if you decide to do an EVP session. There are times that noises are made and we are not even aware of them...and then when they show up on audio, it sounds like something that isn't supposed to be there. Video backup can help with this as far as determining what might be making sounds. Always announce any noises that are made such as a stomach rumble (oh yes, these recorders now pick up EVERYTHING) a car going by..anything that makes a sound.
get somebody who knows what they are doing to help you out... don't do it alone... I only say this cause of your concerns stay respectful and just ask questions tell the entity to talk into what ever you are using. pause between each question so you can give the entity time to answer.
You will do fine... if you are religious then pray it helps
there are others here in the forum that can help you with all the questions you have... good luck and keep us up dated! 
I, too, want to know what you mean by entity. Why you are afraid?
If you proceed with this I also suggest you not do it alone and also not with someone that freaks easily. SG as always had great input on the recorder, evp and documentation.
I am not in favor of "inviting" in evil spirit or as you say ... "entity". That might be a matter of semantics but it is important for us to know what you mean by it. An accounting of what has made you fearful would help greatly.
I use to be scared of it all... but now I am not scared at all. 
I used the word entity as a generic term because I don't know what it is. Please correct me if I used the term incorrectly. The feeling it gives me just creeps me out.
The second I walk into my apartment I feel like it's just standing there watching me but especially if I am near what I call "creepy spots" in my apartment-spots that give me a bad vibe-the hallway and the two bedrooms. (Since my roommate moved out and I don't have couch, I moved my bed into the living room. haha)
When I'm sitting on my bed (in the living room next to the hallway) and I'm on my laptop or watching TV, I sometimes feel like it's sitting next to me and if I turn my head it'll be right in my face.
But, honestly, what scared me the most was when I would hear it talking inside my head. This would happen at the very moment I was between consciousness and sleep. In a few instances I was awoken by my name being screamed. This wasn't a normal scream, it was a deep, disgusting scream. At other times of being awoken, I would here a voice, I have no idea what it was saying because it was definitely not in English. It was start soft and quiet. It become louder, faster, and more violent until it was the same voice that would scream my name. It was almost like a chant but it didn't repeat itself. It's so hard to describe. It was almost like one long word because there were no breaks or breaths. Like a chain of verbal sounds.
So, this has left me with the question: Do follow my curiosity and go along with the EVP session? I do not acknowledge that it's there to avoid it in the hope that it will not crave more attention.
Austin.... That's why i mentioned about hearing stuff in your mind,i have had friend's that had the same thing it is stress related and it was also stress related for my friend's.IMO
This is just my thoughts on this{ you need to take it easy and lighten up on yourself}.
Only fear what actually is fearful.
Well... normally if it was a person we would confront who ever it is, right? Well, you will never find out what or who it is unless you confront it! that's my opinion, well that's what I would do!
Don't take my word on it! someone here can give you good advise
