Miscellaneous Ghost Photos & Videos

When me and the Mrs visited the ruined WW2 town Oradour sur Glane, we found ourselves wandering down one of the abandoned streets. She suddenly said "I can hear a tank behind us!" .. I questioned whether it could just be the sounds of the modern cars on the modern road not far outside of Oradour but she swore these trucks were right next to us although I couldn't hear a thing.

Then she said "Ow!" and I instantly saw a small piece of masonry hit the floor which had presumably fallen off the building we were standing in front of called 'The Doctor's House' (in French obviously). It had bounced off her head.

I wouldn't normally take an object from a place like that but I reasoned it had just hit my Mrs so it was mine. When I got back to England, I gifted it to a friend who collects WW2 memorabilia.

edit: she's just corrected me and said it wasn't trucks she could hear but the sound of a tank coming up behind us.

In a similar vein there was a letter to the local paper many years ago about an experience on Fishergate in Preston Lancashire. Father and son had been called out in the very early hours to a shop where the sprinkler alarm had gone off. Father had to leave late teenage son alone at the shop to get some parts to fix the system. Apparently said son heard for a few minutes gunfire, horses, shouting and smelled smoke but could see nothing outside even when he walked up and down the road. Told his dad who who was dismissive but later found out that Fishergate had been in the centre of a short battle in 1715 during the Jacobite uprising. Several houses had been set on fire during the battle and cavalry had been involved. A short timeslip perhaps?

Wow - no wonder your Dad wanted to get out of there. Did anyone investigate the history of the place?

As a Kid, I didn't take much notice of what my Mum said, just the subject (as I did at that age). I think Dad might've been open to this sort of thing too - he just didn't say much - Dad thought that this life was for living and that sort of thing was not living. Plus He was raised a Catholic.

I think PeteS that it was one of those big churches that played a main role in that time of religious idiocy induced by political want. Sorry I can't be more definite than that.

On November 3, 2017, the Belfast Live website posted a story that was submitted by a 45-year-old man named Jonathan Hanna, who had a strange experience in 2017. That day found Hanna touring the Ulster Folk and Transport Museum in Cultra, Northern Ireland. Hanna took a lot of photos during the visit and, at one point, Hanna took a nice shot of the interior of a train carriage. After getting home and reviewing the shots, Hanna found this.

That is the kind of photo that, had I seen it aged about ten, would have scared me for years.

Now I just look at it and think it's far too good to be true. And I agree with @Tempest63 that ghosts would appear as they were in life - notwithstanding just about every Victorian ghost story ever. It's part of the reason why I can't understand why ghosts are supposed to hang around graveyards. Surely if a ghost is anything it's either a repeat or hang-over from how someone was in life. Corpses don't haunt, how could they? So why would a ghost even look like a dead body, or hang around a graveyard - when all consciousness is gone by that time?

I’ve always thought that about graveyards until I saw something at the cemetery my grandparents are buried in.

The Bangor man told Belfast Live: "I took that on Halloween Day at the Ulster Folk and Transport Museum.

"It was in the folk bit and I was in a carriage and no one else was in it. I took a lot of pictures and got home and near died when I saw that.

"It spooked me, I could not believe it. A few people have asked if it was photoshopped but I don't know how to do that."

I wonder if there were any glass/perspex sheets.

There's transparent legs of people sitting opposite.
 
I'm sorry, but having lived in houses where the lights would go off if you leaned against the wrong bit of wall, where various power sockets randomly stopped working and there would quite often be sparks when you pressed a light switch - I'm always wary of anything electrical being attributed to 'ghosts'. It's about a million times more likely to be faulty wiring.

Nope - it's definitely ghosts. I refuse to live in such an unromantic world; so there. :D
 
I think it's electrical, obviously. And he doesn't dissuade anyone from this.

But if he really wanted to prove some of the claims he makes, such as being alone and that the switch is off, there are a few things he missed.

I'm having some trouble picturing the room(s). It looks like the bed is in a separate room from a sitting/work area. When he claims that he is the only person there and shows the area, he quickly pans past the bed, but doesn't show the area to his right (s/b a corner).

The other thing he really didn't prove was that the switch he showed controlled the light. He only said that it was off, but didn't show that he could turn the light on and off with it.
 
'Ghost' girl caught on cemetery CCTV (whilst night watchman plays spooky music?):

"t made the incident particularly unsettling was that the figure appeared at around 9:30 in the evening, which would seemingly preclude the possibility that it was a member of the public as the site closes at six o'clock in the evening every night. Since being posted online earlier this week, the video has gone viral on social media in Mexico with many suggesting that the small figure was a ghost. Meanwhile, more skeptical observers argued that the 'apparition' could have been the night watchman's daughter or, failing that, some kind of security camera glitch"

What's flinging it about?

Yes. . . I couldn't help noticing that too. 'It' appears to be jumping down some stairs ~ *backwards* into view, then walking forwards? :thought: *And it has a very odd sort of walk too!
*Watching it over and over again, it appears it takes a bit of a wobble (trip), as it reaches the last stair tread, then turns around and goes back up the stairs.

Ah, yes repeated twice. Is it playing backwards? A backwards walk followed by a jump up (some stairs)? Or backwards leap, or being pushed followed by an in the circumstances fairly calm and weird walk to ? (another door, flight of stairs)? Odd sequence of movements though for a ghost or a person. At least it isn't a Demon!
