Ghost Profile Appears in a Pic of Mother and Child

Do you see the ghost's face on the left side?

On a Sunday morning, after church in February, 2012,  in a subdivision in Rizal, two women together with a baby, decided to take a few pictures inside the house. There were just three of them in the room as they took the last few pictures - the one holding the cell phone, the mother and her baby. So where did the profile of the shadowy face on the left of the picture come from?

The profile of a ghost's face in the picture was a surprise. But ghosts appearing inside and outside of this apartment is nothing new. A Doppelganger has been seen on more than one occasion inside. On the driveway, a white lady lurks and she sometimes peers into the window of a car that used to park there at night when everyone is already asleep. Outside on the road, a guitar man is sometimes seen near midnight walking with his classical guitar who fades into nothingness.

Other ghosts aside, to whom does the face belong to? Is it that of a ghost, an elemental, or something else entirely? Was this otherworldly entity just curious or does it have anything important to say.

Orb with Smiley Face Captured by Camera Near Child

Having seen how orbs mysteriously appear in some pictures taken by digital cameras using a flash, it seems strange that some orbs, when magnified, appear to have images in them. One orb that was captured by the camera seems to have a smiley face inside (left; detail). It appeared near a child on a terrace near an old house in Bicol province that was said to harbor ghosts. Pardon my use of smileys to protect the subject's identity. I just couldn't help it. Anyway, you'll be able to discern the smiling orb at the spot where the arrow points to.

The smiley face orb actually resembles the animated character Jack Skellington (left; click it to buy the etched mirror product) from Tim Burton's movie, A Nightmare Before Christmas. This is perhaps the funniest orb I have ever seen. We don't really know what they are, but it's interesting to see what images these orbs may have when magnified. If orbs are conscious, this one must be aware that it's near a kid, which is why it put up its best smiley face! Perhaps it's just it's way of letting us know that it's cool with us.

Smoky Apparition Captured by Camera after Tales of Ghosts

Iriga, Bicol province, The Philippines. It was June, 2010. I was with guests for a wedding and staying in the groom's family house in Iriga. We were told of an incident that happened the night before we arrived. Apparently, in the dead of the night, the dogs started to bark and howl like wolves. The groom told us he liked to think it was a sign that his departed father paying him visit. His wedding was near after all and it made sense to him.

The dogs seemed quiet that night, but for fun, we began to take snapshots of the terrace. We joked that the camera may be able to capture a ghost or two. We didn't exactly expect to see anything in the photos, but the first two already gave us something to think about. The above photo shows what appears to be what paranormal experts call ectoplasm. It's taken from the door to the terrace.

For many of us, the image just shows a foggy thing in front of the camera. But in the other photographs of the terrace (below), there is no fog. Instead there were these strange orbs of light (above; left). Simply click on the image to see them in a larger format.

Note that the flare in the top photo is simply from an object that's too near the camera lens. Nevertheless, are orbs in photographs really indications of spirits or are they just light reflected off dust, water vapor, or insects in the air? Take a look at some of your photos at home taken with a digital camera and flash. Do you see some orbs in them? Whatever we catch on camera can prompt us to take more pictures and investigate even further.

A Ghost in a Necktie Appears for a Wedding in Bicol

Do you like ghost stories? Here's one about a picture of ghost before a wedding.

You know how weddings are often RSVP? When a guest that's not on the list appears, a little adjustment is usually needed to accommodate the person. Just give him or her a place at the reception and everything's fine. But what if it's a ghost that pays you a visit before the day of the wedding? When pictures of ghost show up, its either you get scared or shrug it away like it's nothing.

A few days before the wedding of a friend (he's the happy guy in the picture) in Bicol, The Philippines, pictures were casually taken inside the house. In the picture above, the groom poses near the dining area and behind him can be seen the bathroom door and part of the kitchen. Nothing seemed wrong with the picture until it was uploaded into a laptop. Zooming in revealed what appeared to be glowing orbs of light. In the top picture, you can see that there's a bright one on the left, beside the electric fan, and another on the upper right side. The orbs may be just digital image artifacts, but the human form with them is likely not.

I didn't know what those balls of light were. All I know is that they are said to be either manifestations of spirits or image artifacts caused by light reflecting off particles near the camera lens. Other pictures taken on that same day revealed other orbs and strange wisps of light. They were mysterious, but one of the most jaw dropping discovery of all was this strange smoky, ghostly figure just over the left shoulder of the groom. Magnifying it revealed what appeared to be the head and torso of a man. It seemed to be wearing a necktie! I have no idea how pictures of ghost would look like when they appear, but the image definitely looked like that of a ghost to me.

Later, I uploaded the scary ghost photo into my computer and saved copies of the ghost with enhanced contrast, color, and texture. The results were astonishing! The enhanced ghost photos are presented here for readers of this blog to ponder on. The picture on top is the original one. You can see the faint figure in the background (over the left shoulder of the subject) as if unobtrusively watching in a corner. The next picture, where the ghost is more distinct, has had the contrast enhanced. The other images on the left show the ghost with enhanced imaging features to see if more details can be teased out of the photo.

The ghost appears to be that of a man, but because of the vague quality of the image, there was no way to positively associate it with a real person. Interestingly, the groom's father had recently passed away four months earlier. So what is in the picture? Is it really a ghost in photos? Is it a simple reflection on the wall? Is it just a play of light? We can only wonder and surmise. But it's perfect for my pictures of ghost and ghost stories collection.
