HeHeHe!

I'm really into all this sort of thing so here's one of my favourites and no, it's not a joke image:



This is a .gif image created from CCTV footage captured at Hampton court Palace in late 2003. The Daily Mail published the story as follows:

"To the sceptic it may simply look like a fuzzy CCTV image of someone in a long coat walking through a doorway.
Experts say the long-coated figure could be the best proof yet found that things really do go bump in the night... and the day too.
The mystery surfaced two months ago at the 16th-century palace, once home to King Henry VIII.
Security staff heard alarms ringing near an exhibition hall, indicating fire doors had been opened. But on investigation they found the doors closed.
Perplexed, they examined CCTV footage, and that is when it got spooky.
The cameras showed the heavy doors popping open but no one there. Then, suddenly, the long- coated figure appeared and slammed the doors shut.
The guards were told the same thing happened at the same time - about 1pm - the day before.
To add to the mystery, the doors also flew open at the same time the very next day. But the ghostly figure has been spotted only once.
The suspected spook has not just been sighted by CCTV. Australian tourists also claim to have seen a ghost near the exhibition area. The palace, in West London, has ruled out its guides as suspects because they do not enter that part of the building.
Psychologist Dr Richard Wiseman said the spectre, nicknamed Skeletor, might prove to be a significant discovery.
'It could be the best ghost sighting ever,' he said. 'I haven't seen anything that would match that at all.'"

So, is it really a ghost? Well, there are numerous fors and againsts. For starters, would a presumably 16th Century ghost know how to operate a modern fire exit door so expertly, let alone take it upon him or herself to go around closing them?

On the other hand, look closely at the footage: The door clearly swings open quite violently, apparently by itself, before the entity appears and closes it. The emergency exit doors at Hampton Court do not have any mechanical or electrical equipment to automatically open and close them, so what caused it to open in the first place? If it was a prankster, they should have been visible through the open doors.

Here's another of my favourite ghost photos which, like the Hampton Court footage, is considered by many to be one of the best ever.



On November 19, 1995, Wem Town Hall in Shropshire, England burned to the ground. Many spectators gathered to watch the old building, built in 1905, as it was being consumed by the flames. Tony O'Rahilly, a local resident, was one of those onlookers and took photos of the spectacle with a 200mm telephoto lens from across the street. One of those photos shows what looks like a small, partially transparent girl standing in the doorway. Nether O'Rahilly nor any of the other onlookers or firefighters recalled seeing the girl there.

O'Rahilly submitted the photo to the Association for the Scientific Study of Anomalous Phenomena which, in turn, presented it for analysis to Dr. Vernon Harrison, a photographic expert and former president of the Royal Photographic Society. Harrison carefully examined both the print and the original negative, and concluded that it was genuine. "The negative is a straightforward piece of black-and-white work and shows no sign of having been tampered with," Harrison said.

But who is the little girl? Wem, a quiet market town in northern Shropshire, had been ravaged by fire in the past. In 1677, historical records note, a fire destroyed many of the town's old timber houses. A young girl named Jane Churm, the legends say, accidentally set fire to a thatched roof with a candle. Many believed her ghost haunted the area and had been seen on a few other occasions.

This one really gives me the shivers because of the way that she appears to be looking directly into the camera. There's just something "not right" about it, if you know what I mean

I went all cold when I read that, then realised I was sitting with a large fan blowing on my back.

Hampton Court looks riddled with spooks.

@Jojo, do you have some pics of the Lung Center Fire in which a camera spotted a hand waving out of the newly burned hospital? - tried searching everywhere but unluckily i find none

I liked: cyco's POST because they are REAL, while mine is more of a . . . . sci-fi .


@razor - I don't have that matey . . . try accessing: AULD lung SYNE WEBSITE dude . . .

@razec

I've never heard of that one, might have a google later

Reminds me of this photo taken in Australia in 1975:



Look closely at the seated man's sides and you'll see a pair of disembodied hands holding on to him! There was no space for a human being between the man and the wall and the wall was solid; no holes, trapdoors or such like.

This one baffled scientists for more than two decades but was eventually admitted by it's creators to be a hoax, created with a very clever piece of photographic trickery that they still won't reveal the secret of even today.

photoshop?

Posted by Cycovision
No, there was no such thing as photoshop in 1975!

The experts reasoned that it must be some kind of clever development technique, but the culprits would never say yes or no

Bear in mind that the original photograph looked a lot more convincing than this very much overly copied, digitised and compressed photo. I can't find a decent version of the original so if anybody comes across one, please give me a shout!

Posted by DickySnapples
maybe he chopped someones arms off and glued them to his shirt. . .

Posted by Cycovision
Quite possibly! It would certainly explain why the scientists were baffled for so long, they would never have thought of that

I dont no how these guys manage to get these pix. I dont really believe in ghosts, but if I saw one, I would be sh*ing my self! Taking a pic wont be on my mind! It would be running to the car screamming like a headless chicken!

Posted by lhaizza
waaa that really scares me. don't want to see this thread again.

Posted by haynesycop
Hmmmm interesting! This type of thing confuses me, don't like things that can't be explained. I'm a great believer that everything can be explained through science be it chemistry, physics, biology etc etc. Guess you have to have an open mind though.

Posted by Cycovision
Yeah, well that's the funny thing. In the vast majority of ghost photo cases, neither the photographer nor any onlookers saw anything out of the ordinary at the time the photograph was taken. Yet still the ghosts appear 'in black and white', as the old saying goes.

Here's another classic:



Taken in 1959 by Mrs. Mabel Chimney in a British churchyard. She had just finished photographing her mother’s grave and then took a picture of her husband, who was waiting for her in the car. He was alone in the car at that time, yet the developed photograph clearly showed Mrs. Chimney’s mother in the back seat of the car. A photo expert examined it for a British newspaper and declared the photo to be authentic. In fact, he went as far as to declare, “I stake my reputation on the fact that this picture is genuine.”

Apparantly, the scary glowing eyes were caused by the reflection of the camera's flash in the ghost's spectacles (which Mrs. Chimney's mother did indeed wear) but either way, this one gives me the s**ts too!

I dont believe that one. Its just an illusion caused by the camera. Im sure a lot of "ghost" images are just illusions of the light which the camera caught.

Dont get me wrong there is some solid pictures, but it dosnt take away the fact they may be fakes or not ghosts but somthing that can be easily explained.

Ive had a few weird experiences at my work, it used to be and old peoples home plus it was built in 1806 so its bloody old. I was putting sheets on a bed once and had the door propped open and saw out of the corner of my eye someone stood opposite in the older part of the house staring at me. Another time i saw some one go past the office in to a service users room, so i followed thinking he was going to mess some stuff up i had just done. There was no one there, but i swear i saw someone walk to his room. Other people have seen the same thing at the same place, two women saw it once at the same time. I've had horrible experiences on waking nights as well, its when i have to stay up all night in case a service user needs help. Ive heard papers russling in the office, we have firedoors that close if there are loud noises. there are 6 in a corridor and each one closed one by one within minutes of each other. Its just doesn't happen. there have been countless times when i feel someone is with me as well. I know a couple who bought a house on an old hospital site, their house was where the child unit was. the second night they where there the women woke up and saw a little girl crying in the corner of her room. They moved out the next and and sold the house. freaky shit.

When Sybell Corbet developed this photograph of the magnificent Combermere Abbey Libray in 1891, she was rather surprised to see the lord of the house sitting in his favourite chair. Nothing too unusual about that, you might think, except that at the time the photograph was being taken, Lord Combermere was four miles away attending a funeral: His own!

There were only two servants and the photographer herself in the house at the time, and neither servant looked anything like Lord Combermere. Also, they knew that Sybell was photographing the house and so were careful not to walk into any shots.

Did Lord Combermere decide to have one last sit in his favorite chair or was there a rational explanation for this anomaly?

Interestingly, it wasn't the first time that Lord Combermere was involved in spooky goings on. He was the governor of Barbados at the time of the mysterious 'Chase Vault' happenings.

James Courtney and Michael Meehan, crew members of the S.S. Watertown, were cleaning a cargo tank of the oil tanker as it sailed toward the Panama Canal from New York City in December of 1924. Through a freak accident, the two men were overcome by gas fumes and killed. As was the custom of the time, the sailors were buried at sea off the Mexican coast on December 4.

But this was not the last the remaining crew members were to see of their unfortunate shipmates. The next day, before dusk, the first mate reported seeing the faces of the two men in the waves off the port side of the ship. They remained in the water for 10 seconds, then faded. For several days thereafter, the phantom-like faces of the sailors were clearly seen by other members of the crew in the water following the ship. On arrival in New Orleans, the ship's captain, Keith Tracy, reported the strange events to his employers, the Cities Service Company, who suggested he try to photograph the eerie faces. Captain Tracy purchased a camera for the continuing voyage. When the faces again appeared in the water, Captain Tracy took six photos, then locked the camera and film in the ship's safe. When the film was processed by a commercial developer in New York, five of the exposures showed nothing but sea foam. But the sixth showed the ghostly faces of the doomed seamen. The negative was checked for fakery by the Burns Detective Agency. After the ship's crew had been changed, there were no more reports of sightings.

This is yet another classic and very unusual ghost sighting because, unlike most other sightings, it was witnessed over a long period of time by a lot of different people. Some people claim that there is a third face in the photograph, can you see it?

In 1964, Gordon Caroll visited the parish church of St. Mary in Woodford, Northampton, England and decided to take his camera along with him. He swears that he was alone in the church and that he saw nothing unusual at the time this photograph was taken.

The developed photograph shows what appears to be a semi-transparant human figure praying at the altar. The camera, negative and photograph itself were all sent for examination by experts who concluded that the photograph was not the result of trickery in any way and that the figure appears to be dressed in a very early monk's habit or possibly even a knight's tunic .

The church is certainly very old. The present building dates back to the 12th Century and was built on the site of an old Saxon church. Many of the Parishioners, clergy and staff at the church over the years have claimed that it is haunted.

However several years after the photograph was taken, a team of investigators concluded that the photograph had an innocent explanation. The kneeling figure was actually a cleaning lady who had wandered into the shot and started cleaning the alter without the photographer noticing. Mr. Caroll did admit that he used a long exposure to take the photo, but that he was present the whole time and would definitely have seen somebody walking into shot.

Other experts argue that if this were the case, there would be evidence of the cleaning lady actually moving into shot, such as multiple impressions and blurring. None of these are apparent in the photograph and so the ghost of St. Mary's still remains an unsolved mystery to this day.

@jojo

Yes, I'm very interested in the paranormal! Thanks for the link

It Looks a bit edited rather than a genuine ghost vid but of course I may be wrong. Either way, that little girl looks seriously strange and frightening to me somehow, reminds me of the doll in the haunted ebay picture *shudder*

EDIT:

Just watched it again a few times, sussed it out!

The figure in the right-hand mirror is a paper mache model or something similar of the little girl, which is why it looks weird like the haunted ebay picture doll!

This is the granddaddy (or should that be grandma?) of all ghost photos; "the brown lady of Raynham Hall"!

in 1936, two professional photographers, Captain Provand and his assistant Indre Shira, were taking photographs of Raynham Hall in Norfolk, England for 'Country Life' magazine. The date was the 19th September, and at 4.00pm that afternoon they were photographing the Hall's main staircase. They had completed one exposure, and were preparing for another, when Shira saw a misty form ascending the stairs. He shouted to the captain that there was something on the stairs, and asked if the Captain was ready, he replied "yes" and took the cap off the lens, while Shira pressed the trigger for the flash light.

After this the captain came up from under the protective cloth, and asked what all the fuss was about. Shira explained that he had seen a shadowy, see-through figure on the stairs. When the negative was developed it showed this famous image. There were three witnesses to the negatives development, as Shira had wanted an independent observer to verify the event. He ran and got a chemist called Benjamin Jones, who managed the premises above which the development studio was located. A full account of the experience was published in Country Life magazine on the 26th of December 1936.

The photo was later examined by experts at the Country Life offices, where it was declared unlikely to have been tampered with. There have been a few detractors in more recent times saying that Shira hoaxed the image by smearing grease on the lens or moving in front of the camera, but there is unlikely to be a definitive explanation for the photo. It is still held in the offices of Country Life.
