Has anyone ever actually taken a photograph of a ghost?

Question

If so can I have a look?

Answer 1

We're not certain what we are looking at. Blurs, streaks, smudges, vague outlines

Answer 2

Well, probably. Ghost Hunting today is pretty much of a new fad. There are a few TV shows that follow Ghost Hunting groups. The most famous is Ghost Hunters on Sci-Fi channel. The show features members of TAPS (The Atlantic Paranormal Society) as they go to different places around the country trying to capture paranormal activity, sounds and apparition's. Most of the shows really amount to nothing, and sometimes the acting is a real turn off. But occasionally they will get lucky and record some really fantastic stuff. The episodes that come to mind where they caught a ghost on camera were: The St Augustine Light House where they filmed a ghost whisping up to the top of the tower then turning around and looking down at them. Another great episode was the Crescent Hotel in Eureka Springs, Ark. where they were researching an old Hotel that used to serve as a cancer hospital and morgue back during the civil war. They filmed a civil war soldier standing there looking at them. TAPS does try hard to disprove much of what they catch in an attempt to be fair. So, although many times the shows seem scripted, the few that they cannot explain away, and that you cannot reasonably convince yourself that something could have been staged are worth the effort to watch. Its new season is starting in June. The TAPS web site has some footage of ghosts allegedly caught on tape.

I don't think there has been any pictures that are widely accepted as a legitimate picture of a ghost. In fact, the very existence of ghosts are a matter of dispute. It was once thought that the auras in Kirlian photography might be photographic proof that ghosts exist, but now we know that it only proves the existence of electromagnetic fields around (according to Wikipedia) "all living and many nonliving objects".

Answer 4

yes, i have seen a real photograph. the story behind is that a family was on picnic including a hansome boy of plus 10 years. the same day he sudenly died in the house. After a week or so the photographs taken by one of the family members were seen. In one snap the boy was standing under a tree and behind him in the bushes there was a lady with long hairs spread in front of her. She looked very mysterios, when i saw the picture i felt cold wave in my spinal cord. According to the explanation of that family, none of such woman was seen there. The place is far from the city and there were no other families to enjoy that day.

Answer 5

I have taken a picture of what I believe to be a ghost. I took the picture in the battle fields in Gettysburg PA. I have recently moved but as soon as I find it. I would be happy to let you see it if you would like. I'm not sure how to do it. I guess you could add me to your contacts?

Answer 6

Ghosts do not exist, so any photos that appear to be them are fakes or errors. Christian scholars say the dead do not arise until Judgemant day. Atheists say death is final. Either way, ghosts are imaginary.

Answer 7

I think most of the photos are double exposures or tricks. But very often the imagination can find images in nature like clouds, smoke, tree bark, rocks etc. It's fun I have done it many times but I never take it seriously.

Answer 8

YES! I DID! I have to try to find the photo at home (can't remember if it was with a digital camera or my old film camera.) It is a shawody figure with a top hat in this cemetary near our house. If I find it I'll post it here.

Answer 9

I've never seen a ghost but I've felt the presents of a late friend, But go to TAPS' web page. they have lots of pics.

Answer 10

Hi, if you email me at [e-mail] I have an email with apparent ghost photographs.

Answer 11

I have seen a lot of tv programs that show floating spirits and bodies, but without actually seeing it myself I would say that they are fakes. They can do anything on tv and make it look real.
