Top 10 Ghost Images - #5


This photograph was taken in September, 1999 at Sefton Church is an ancient structure (started in the 12th century and finished in the early 16th century) in Merseyside, England, just north of Liverpool.

According to Brad Steiger's Real Ghosts, Restless Spirits and Haunted Places, where this photo was found, there was only one other photographer in the church beside the person who took this picture. Neither of them recalled seeing the ghost or any flesh-and-blood person standing there who could account for this image. Because the figure is all in black, it has been theorized that the apparition could be that of a church minister.

Top 10 Ghost Images - #6


This photo was taken on November 16, 1968 when Robert A. Ferguson, author of several titles on health and telepathy, was giving a speech at a Spiritualist convention in Los Angeles, California. Faintly appearing next to Ferguson is a figure that he later identified as his brother, Walter, who died in 1944 during World War II. At first is seems possible that it could just have been an double exposure, but this photo being an Polaroid, the theory of an double exposure seems quite unlikely.

Top 10 Ghost Images - #7


This photograph was taken by GRS member Mari Huff during an investigation at Bachelor's Grove Cemetery, near Chicago, Illinois, on August 10, 1991. Mari took the photograph using a high-speed infrared camera in an area where the group had experienced some anomalies with their ghost-hunting equipment. The cemetery was empty except the GRS members.

This cemetery is one of the most haunted in USA, with well over 100 different reports of strange phenomena, including apparitions, unexplained sights and sounds, and even glowing balls of light.

This photograph was taken on August 17, 1997 and shows an elderly woman with a man standing behind. The man is believed to be her husband. The only problem? Her husband passed away 13 years earlier in 1984. What is in the picture is still today a mystery.

Ghost hand on TV


This is pretty creepy.

On Christmas Eve, 1968, a woman in Southern Minnesota snapped a picture of her husband assembling toys, and inadvertently preserved an unscheduled broadcast on her unplugged television set. The hand had appeared the year before, again at Christmas.

Agree with me, that's something you don't want to see on your flat-screen TV.

Top 10 Ghost Images - #9


One day in 1959, Mrs. Mabel Chinnery was visiting the grave of her mother somewhere in the UK. She had brought along her camera to take photographs of the gravesite. After snapping a few shots of her mother's gravestone, she pointed her camera at her husband who was waiting in the car. That’s at least what they thought.

When the film was developed, the couple was more than surprised to see a figure wearing glasses sitting in the back seat of the car. Mrs. Chinnery immediately recognized the image of her mother – the woman whose grave they had visited on that day. Photographic experts who have studied the photo have deemed it as real, the women was neither a reflection nor a double exposure.

Top 10 Ghost Images - #10


This photograph was taken by one Reverend K. F. Lord at Newby Church in North Yorkshire, England in 1963. Reverend Lord have said that nothing was visible to the naked when he took the photograph and experts that have investigated the photo says that it is not a double exposure. Analysis have shown the figure to be more than nine feet tall.

The church was built in 1870 and it’s not known to be a haunted place.

Hunting ghosts (on TV)

Today, TV is overwhelmed by programs that hunt ghosts.  We got the most famous ones like the American long runner Ghost Hunters and their British counterpart Most Haunted, which is now in their 14:th season.  But we can’t forget the newcomers. On Travel Channel Ghost Adventures was a success and a fourth season is in production, and recently Discovery Channel’s Ghost Lab concluded its first season.  And we cannot not continue without mention A&E:s Paranormal State and just started Paranormal Cops. It’s a smorgasbord for the paranormal interested.

But with a lot of competition comes a big pressure of getting results, and for a ghost hunting show the pressure is even bigger. If no ghost shows up, no one will view the show and it will probably get cancelled. So in that perspective it’s understandable that some content in the show maybe made-up on purpose. And there have been some controversial, especially on the most famous one Ghost Hunters and on Paranormal State, with content that apparently been hoaxed. 

But still, I find those shows interesting and will still tune to watch ghost hunting shows when they air.
