EVP
Senior corporate officer
EVP stands for electronic voice phenomenon—purported spirit voices captured on audio recordings that weren't audible during the original recording session.
Ghost hunters and paranormal investigators play back recordings slowly, listening for faint voices or phrases they interpret as messages from the dead: We caught an EVP saying "get out".
EVP also abbreviates executive vice president in corporate contexts.
