This primary instrument measures the vibrational frequency of nearby spectral phenomena. The needle oscillates between dormant ectoplasmic signatures (0.00 ψHz) and full phantasmal manifestation (9.99 ψHz). Current atmospheric conditions suggest heightened paranormal activity in your vicinity.
Calibrated at the Greenwich Spectral Observatory, 1887. Last serviced by the Phantom Mechanist's Guild.

The upper-left instruments track the subtle fabric of consciousness. Dream Density measures the concentration of oneiric particles -- the building blocks of nocturnal visions -- per cubic centimeter of ambient ether. Thought Luminosity quantifies the radiant energy emitted by focused cognition, measured in lux-phi units.
Warning: readings above 50 lxφ may cause spontaneous clairvoyance. Protective brass goggles recommended.
This vertical barometer tracks the intensity of spiritual energy permeating the immediate environment. The enchanted mercury responds to fluctuations in the veil between worlds, rising through five states of manifestation from Dormant to Transcendent. The mercury itself is infused with spectrally-charged quicksilver, harvested under a blood moon.
Instrument commissioned by the Order of the Midnight Lens, circa 1842. Do not tap glass.
The panoramic periscope viewport records anomalous sightings encountered during the airship's passage through the aurora belt. Each entry is logged by the duty officer and verified by at least two instruments. The brass-framed viewing strip allows continuous horizontal observation of the spectral landscape below.
Logbook entries are permanent once etched. The brass remembers.
