I agree that you will never prove that they do not exist but that is not always the main goal.
If you take the people who believe in ghosts along and approach it from a perspective of searching for evidence, you may get them to think a bit more about what they recall seeing in the past.
I had a similar opportunity to investigate in the Cemetery on Norfolk Island, it was a great deal of fun and I think a few of my friends really changed the way they view skeptics and weigh evidence.
