bullet Topic: Ghosts
    Posted: 27 May 2007 at 5:41pm
I've always been kinda iffy on this subject, but have I got a story for you...

So my mother, brother, and sister went to this 4 day country music dealy called Country Thunder. I didn't go because I'm one of the few people in texas that realizes how much country sucks. Anyhow, last night my mom had a dream that she was fighting a ghost for her covers, and when she wakes up she realizes just how realistic the dream actually was. It didn't have any of those reality flaws like most dreams do.

When she went dowstairs in the morning, someone told her that a gunshot was heard in the abandoned (and locked) bar by their hotel. When they went inside to check on it, they found an old ashtray had been thrown against the window(by who? nobody was there.)

Also, strange people and floating objects appeared in some of the pictures they took...

Here's my sister with an orb. I remind you this is 100% real and not photoshized, even though it looks fake.

This one looks so real it might even be a person, so take my word for it when I say the girl in black next to my brother does not exist. When I first saw it I thought it was my sister, but look at her, she's solid black. He informed me he was alone when this was taken.



I'll be posting more when I get the other card.


Also, the dude from Big&Rich gave my sister his guitar.




UPDATE: My other sister just informed me they had heard the hotel was haunted beforehand. If I had known that, I would have gone D:<
I want to be in a picture with a ghost! Whateve. They're going back next year.



So, what do you think?
Anyone else have a story to share?

Hahaha. The "orb" on the first was added after the photo was taken, then saved with a lower amount of compression.
 
The second looks like a shadow to me, but doesn't scream afteraffect like the first.
 
Good luck finding more gullible people to fool. Look around your offline acquaintances.

No, seriously.  I dont even own photoshop.
It could be a glare from the flash, but it's not edited at all.

EDIT: or, it could be Specular Reflection.  Eather way I didn't add it in.

ANOTHER EDIT:  The girl cant be a shadow, because the wall behind her isn't parallel to how the 'shadow' falls.  For it to look like that, it would have to have a flat wall, and a person in front of it.

yes, that's the camera flash.  Look in the bottom right corner, that's what I'm talking about.

the 2nd one has a camera flash too.  I'm not claiming anything supernatral is going on with the cameras.


Both these were taken in mirrors.

Kfuchoin, that's the camera's little string. The pictures were taken in a mirror.

the only thing I'm finding hard to believe is that the second picture is your BROTHER.  For real?  I zoomed in and looked very carefully, but that looks like a girl to me, man!

Out of curiosity, what kind of camera do you have? A specific model or just the company would be fine.

I don't wanna creep anyone out, but the house I live in was really cheap because it was a murder scene (ax to face, I'll spare you the details) and no one wanted to buy it.   The dead chick haunts it still, and i think she might've stolen my soul!!

She used my mom's camera, and she's gone to bed.  I can tell you tommrow.

WTF@leel

btw -- "ax to face, I'll spare you the details" how much more detailed can you get?

also, zooming in on my brother's face is never a good idea


EDIT:
This is the hotel where they were staying.  I've skiped right to the good part.

First is a glare, second is a shadow/reflection. Get over it.
If i take a blurred photograph of my hand i don't immediately suspect my hand can disintergrate or become gaseous.

Btw LOL leel and ens, brilliant.

Omg noobs...

I have been studying gost for ages.. and my conclusion was = Yes gosts exists. However they can not impossibly be taken on photo.. Believe me im the pro, I have been in contact with many many witches, mediums etc.. and have done alot of research..
I when searching I have found alot of photo's like this, and for some I know why they looked like a gost... About ens picture: thats because adobe was so nice for us to introduce photoshop.. leel's picture and the 2 pictures from adrian where just the reflection of the flash light..
BUt..
then we have the blue light and the shadow..
I dont know the explaination of the shadow... but I do know it from the blue light..

There is a molecule, named CH2OH
That molecule is everywhere in the air, but you cant see it.. its translucent..
In some situations, they group together (cant remember the exact species of the situation needed)..
When they group together they can be seen with very very intense light, and it gives a blue reflection, witch is the lightest at the essence of the group.. When the foto was made, the flashlight was intense enaugh to display it.. but since the flashlight only dured for a 100/st second, you where not able to see it, but the foto was taken on the right moment...

This is seen very rarely, but yes its true... (try google on CH2OH)

mirrors reflect, thats why they are mirrors.  ALL mirrors reflect, no way around it.  they just filter the light bouncing off of them, causing less of a reflection.  however sensitive instruments, like cameras/film can still pick them up

lollige, i hate to play the age card...  but you are what, 15? 16?  there are scientist who have been investigating the existence of ghosts for twice as long as you have been alive, and they have found no proof to their existence, or lack thereof. right now, anyone's theory on ghosts is just that...  an unproven theory.  there is no proof if they can be captured in photos, seen by by the human eye, etc etc.

my opinion of ghosts is the same as mine about god...  non existent.

@lar: HA HA HA HA HA HA i lol'ed irl XD

I CANT BELEEV YOUR REELY FRENDS WITH A DRAGON LAR!!!
 
Lollige, your credibility isn't exactly improved by saying "im the pro." And CH2OH? I fail to find anything remotely related to photographic artifacts with Yahoo!, Google, or Wikpedia's search functions. Maybe you could give me a link sometime? And I must agree with ens about the improbability that you'd come across some evidence that unambiguously proves the existence of ghosts. While there may be electromagnetic phenomena that seem supernatural to us right now, so did electricity back in the day. And disease? It used to be thought of as possession by demons. Even weather used to be "supernatural."

CH2OH is just methanol, no its not in the air otherwise we'd all be high, plus methanol is visible to the eyes.
