Your Definition
The practice of designing and constructing environments, devices, or protocols intended to facilitate, control, or prevent paranormal activity. This includes building "haunted" attractions that actually feel haunted (mostly just dark corridors and unexpected noises), creating ghost-hunting protocols that yield "results" (results being any anomaly, no matter how mundane), and designing "protective" measures against entities that may or may not exist. Paranormal engineering faces the challenge that its target phenomena are unreliable, unproven, and apparently quite shy, making quality control impossible.
