While out investigating the paranormal it is advisable to protect yourself spiritually regardless of your faith. It is the unknown that we are investigating and it is definitely better safe than sorry. Below is an example of a protection prayer both in English and Latin.

ST. MICHAEL THE ARCHANGEL

Saint Michael is the guardian angel and can be invoked as follows:-

(Latin Version)

Sancte Míchael Archángele, defénde nos in proélio contra nequítiam et insídias diáboli esto præsídium. Imperet illi Deus, súpplices deprecámur: tuque, princeps milítiæ cæléstis, Sátanam aliósque spíritus malígnos, qui ad perditiónem animárum pervagántur in mundo, divína virtúte, In inférnum detrude. Amen

(English Version)

Saint Michael the Archangel, defend us in battle; be our defense against the wickedness and snares of the devil. May God rebuke him, we humbly pray. And do thou, O prince of the heavenly host, by the power of God thrust into hell Satan and all evil spirits who prowl about the world seeking the ruin of souls. Amen



The Archangel Michael, whose name means 'who is as God', is generally considered to be the foremost of the seven archangels and the leader of the Host of Heaven.
