What is Ghost tracker — closer to red, closer to ghost?

Picture this: you're exploring a supposedly haunted house, your heart starts pounding, and you can't help but wonder... is someone (or something) watching me? That's where our Ghost Tracker comes in! This chillingly fun spinning wheel helps you gauge how close you might be to paranormal activity. The premise is simple but thrilling: the closer the needle lands to the red zone, the closer you supposedly are to a ghost. It’s not meant to be taken as actual ghost-hunting equipment, but it injects a playful dose of spookiness into games, parties, or storytelling sessions. Spin the wheel to reveal alerts varying from "No Ghost" all the way to a nerve-racking "GHOST VERY NEAR", making it the perfect companion for your eerie adventures!

What can the wheel of fortune be used for?

This isn’t just any old randomizer—it’s a conversation starter and a mood-setter! People have gotten super creative with how they use the Ghost Tracker. Here are some awesome ways you can put it to work:

Spicy Halloween parties & get-togethers – Turn up the spook factor and entertain guests with a "real-time" ghost threat detector.

Role-playing games, ghost stories & sleepovers – Whether you're leading a tabletop horror RPG or telling creepy tales with friends, it adds an element of surprise or suspense.

Decision-making with a supernatural twist – Can’t agree on what movie to watch? Spin the wheel—if it lands on "GHOST VERY NEAR", it means a horror film wins.

How random are the results?

Completely random—pinky swear! The Ghost Tracker wheel we build runs off a certified random algorithm, meaning every spin is independent from the last one and each outcome has an equal probability of landing. There’s no way to predict whether you'll get a casual "Ghost Far" or make the jump to "WARNING! GHOST NEAR". It’s entirely governed by chance—no hidden mechanisms, no favoritism toward ghostly outcomes, just pure randomness at work.

How to customize your spinning wheel?

Got creative juices flowing? You can adapt this spooky wheel right here—whether you’d rather change sector text, expand the number of "danger" options, or update the ghost proximity warnings. Here’s how:

  1. Edit text labels – Go into edit mode and change “GHOST NEAR” or "GHOST ALERT" to any other custom warning that suits your imagination.

  2. Re-color zones or levels of proximity – Swap background/segment colors—maybe orange means something in between, or deep black means you’ve got a poltergeist right behind you!

  3. Adjust sector layout or number – Want fewer results for more tension, or more zones for nuanced spookiness? Duplicate or delete segments to fit your session's difficulty level.

  4. Rename your wheel – You can change the title or even save your custom version locally for future use with your own group of brave souls.

What are the benefits of using a random picker?

Using a fun randomizer like the Ghost Tracker wheel has some surprisingly practical perks!

It takes the pressure off choosing—so you don’t get bogged down while deciding whose turn it is to tell a scary story next. It also helps inject fresh excitement into social settings where everyone’s craving suspense or laughs. With the outcome being unpredictable every time, people can sit back and be entertained instead of negotiating every little detail. Another big win: it keeps group morale high by making everyone feel included—nobody is left out, and the wheel calls the shots!

Can I use this wheel for educational purposes?

Absolutely, and teachers and storytellers have done just that! Here are a few classroom-friendly ideas:

• Creative Writing or English class: students spin the wheel before writing ghost stories, and incorporate the resulting ghost level into their narrative plot.

• Drama class role-playing warm-ups: the spin decides the ghost proximity level for an improv scene between "mediums" and "ghosts".

• Probability lessons: track each spin outcome, tally the frequencies for each ghost warning, and compare them against what would be expected theoretically.

Just remember, it’s all in good fun and is meant to stimulate imagination, not as actual ghost-hunting instruction for school science fairs.

Is the spinning wheel mobile-friendly?

Yes it is! We made sure our Ghost Tracker runs smoothly whether you’re on a phone, tablet, or desktop—so you can bring the spooky fun wherever you go.

No apps to download—it works right in your mobile browser. Touching and spinning feels as intuitive as real life, just give that wheel a good swipe, and it’ll spin away just like it would on a bigger screen. Great for quick ghost-check sessions when you're exploring that “haunted” forest trail, visiting an old mansion, or simply enjoying a game during a road trip in the car (safely, of course!).

How do I share my wheel results with others?

Caught a “GHOST VERY NEAR” or laughed off a “Ghost Far” result? Sharing your spooky outcomes with friends is super simple with these options:

  1. Take a screenshot directly after each spin and send it through your favorite app (like WhatsApp, Instagram, or Discord).

  2. Enable the “public link” option before starting your session—so friends can follow along live!

  3. Record a quick clip of spins during your storytelling for social media to capture reactions.

We also support copying a custom wheel link—which lets you send your personal "Ghost Tracker" or any customization you made right to your group chat, keeping everyone in the ghost-hunting loop.
