More ghost photographs

This photograph was taken on January 22, 1985 when the Freeman organization was having a dinner event at St. Mary's Guildhall in Coventry, UK. At the moment when this photograph was taken, everyone had her or his head bowed in prayer, including a towering, mysterious figure standing top left. One person that was present at dinner were Lord Mayor Walter Brandish and he later stated that there were know one dressed like that during the dinner and he wasn’t able to explain how it made its way into the photograph.

When James Courtney and Michael Meehan, two crew members 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, one freak accident happened and they engulfed in gas flames and perished. They men were buried at sea off the Mexican coast on December 4.

But this wasn’t the last they saw of the men. The next day, one of the crew members reported seeing the faces of the two men in the waves close to the ship. They remained there for several seconds before fading out. And for several days thereafter, phantom like faces was seen by the crew. There has never been any explanation for their sightings.

This photograph was taken in 1919, but wasn’t published until 1975. The photograph shows squadron which served World War I at the HMS Daedalus training facility. Upon further inspection, a face can clearly been seen behind the fourth men from the left.

Members of the squadron have reported it to be the face of Freddy Jackson, an air mechanic who had been accidentally killed by an airplane propeller two days earlier. The same day as this photograph was taken, Jackson’s burial had taken place. Some think he was unaware of his death and decided to show up on the group photo.

Report sent to paranormal.about

"I was at the Stanley on a ghost tour," says George. "I came back with four orb pictures (which I can send you if you wish), and upon further investigation I have this one. I didn't notice it until I was on the plane home and zoomed in on all my Stanley pictures. I was shocked at first and have been showing it to people the past few weeks and been getting similar reactions of amazement to people saying it looked like a Cabbage Patch doll. Just thought you might have some ideas.

At first I thought it was a dog, then after zooming closer, it certainly looks like an apparition of a little boy. If you look at the people on the ground they are so clear, when you look at the window it looks like a vision. You'll also notice there is no curtain or glass to distort the view; the window is open."

"I contacted the hotel to find out about the room," George says, "and this is what they said:"
OK, the room number is 1211. Last Friday, there was a single man checked in that room who was part of a business conference. That doesn't mean he DIDN'T have a child with him, but it is unlikely that he did. -- Stanley Hotel
