A rather large collection of ghost stories, photos and other smudgy, superstitious craziness. :eek:

They don't actually look like that.

No. They look like this:

Quote from the site above - Determined to document the activity, Steve borrowed or purchased every type of camera he could think to see if the bizarre images appeared, but no matter what type of camera or film he used, he captured evidence of unexplainable light phenomena that included brilliant beams, floating balls of light, and glowing outlines of humans and animals. Sometimes the mysterious lights could be seen with the naked eye, though most often, they lasted just a split second and showed up only on film. They usually lasted only a split second. I think the more interesting story is the fact that Steve is able to see the orbs, beams, etc and then run to get his camera, and then turn it on, aim, and shoot a picture of something that is only around for a split second. Steve must be the fastest man alive.

That or he's really lucky. Somehow he was able to capture a picture of ghosts when he was innocently taking pictures of the mirror, lamps, empty corners of the house and other mundane objects that he apparently thought would make for a great Kodak moment. Perhaps it’s just me, but if not for the “ghosts� in allot of these pictures; the pictures would be of nothing at all. Honestly who takes pictures of an empty hallway? Perhaps the ghost showed up just so it wouldn’t be a total waste of film.

Just look at all those blurry somethings that are supposed to be ghost pictures. Some of them make my head hurt trying to see the ghosts, like Mary's face on that damn sandwitch only less recognizable. They'll outline this square of the photo in red, blow it up, and still it won't look like anything. Others look like someone figured out how to use the blur function on photoshop, and there's this one photo which just looks like they left the exposure too long:

Hmmm... the the figure is blurrier than the woman's face, but the shoes on the floor come in sharper than the flowers on her clothes?? I'd say something got blurred in over two shoes left on the ground, probably with the help of photoshop. The blurry outline thing looks way out of proportion to be a human being, like someone tried to draw a person but ended up with a mess.

Yes, that how it is. Ghosts are everywhere, and cameras alone can see them. Yes, thats Occam's razor in use!
