Right now I want to bring you to recognition that sometimes the spirit from the past could be recorded on the several digital devices, such as radio, computer, or cameras. This has been proved by the existance of several potographs which contained figures that were not there when they were taken, or simply could not possibly there at all for the recorded figures had since long gone. However, since it is now very possible to animate pictures, it is difficult to judge if a picture is genuine. Therefore I choose several classic photographs which were unlikely to be animated. Those mostly were taken in the 60's.
There are 5 photographs out of maybe 30 that left a certain impression on me. I will share them with you and see if they also left the same impression on you.
This photo was a group potrait of a military squadron which had served in World War I, taken in 1919. In the back of the man positioned on the top row, four from the left, can clearly be seen a ghostly image of another man (see circle). The face was easily recognized by the airmen as belong to an air mechanic who had accidentally been killed two days previously by airline propeller. His funeral has taken place the day this photograph was taken.
It was suggested that this man, unaware of his death, had decided to turn up on this group photograph. It is such a scary yet touching assumption that he was very devoted to his squadron even after his death. In my mind, I think people would always want to come to the place where they were happiest the most. Maybe then for him, the happiest moment was when he served with this squadron.
The second photograph (and slightly scarier than the first) was that of a lonely-looking young woman in an out-of-date white dress sitting on a tombstone. of her body (in the leg area) were a bit transparent. This photograph was taken by an infrared camera by a ghost hunting group who had experienced some anomalies with their equipment as they got closer to the spot.
The woman in this picture indeed seemed so lonely yet undisturbed. It makes me wondering who or what possibly was she waiting for. Was she burried in the same area, or was she just came as a visitor. This photograph was in my opinion a very good and clear snapshot of a parnormal phenomenon.
A woman was visiting the grave of her daughter in Australia, in 1947 or 1947. Her daughter had just died several weeks earlier at the age of 17. She took a photograph of her grave, but did not see any unusual when she did so. However, when she developed the film, she was astonished to see an image of a baby sitting happily on her daughter's grave. The ghost child seemed aware of her camera and looked directly at it. The expert has rule out the possibility of double exposure. Moreover, she did not recall of any child nearby the spot. She also did not believe the ghost as that of her daughter's.
This was scary because the baby seemed very real, yet it certainly did not. For one, usually it was difficult to depict a face in a ghostly figure, but the baby's face in this picture was clearly visible. Again, it's leg was transparent and she wore a white out-of-date clothing pieces. What makes white garment so special for those paranormal creatures? If she's still there until now, I'm glad that at least she was happy with her surrounding.
This photo was taken in 1959. A lady was visiting a grave site of her mother with her husband. She brought along a camera to take a picture of the grave site. After taking a few snapshot of the grave site, she took a photo of her husband who was sitting alone, waiting in the car. At least they thought he was alone. When she developed the film, they were surprised to see a figure wearing glasses sitting at the backseat of the car. She immediately recognized the figure as her mother, whose graveyard they had just visited that day. Experts have judged this picture as genuine.
The figure at the backseat did not look happy at all. There was some dark shadow surround it that made her glasses glowing. It looked as if it was watching the man in the front with a lot of awareness and suspicion. How far did it followed them that day? Was it coming home with them at the backseat of the car that day?...
The last and the scariest of all is the ghost of Tulip staircase. This famous photograph was taken in 1966, and initially was intended as a memorabilia of this elegant spiral staircase in the Queen's house section of the National Maritim Museum in England. Upon development, the photo reveal a shrouded figure climbing the stairs, and apparently holding the railing with two hands. Any possibility of tampering had been ruled out be the experts. This picture was apparently not the only evidence of ghostly presence in Tulip Staircase. Several people have witnessed a figure of a lady gliding from room to room, an unexplainable choral chanting of children, and the figure of a pale woman frantically mopping blood at the bottom of the staircase (said to be a maid from 300 years ago who was thrown 50 feet from the highest banister to her death), a banging doors, and some more.
This shrouded figure does not look like human to me. It is more like some unshaped creatures between cat or lion with human hands. What kind of creature climb a stairs like that? If someday that shroud was open, what would be visible underneath? I don't want to know.
