where's this place at and who took the pic?
Comment icon #36 Posted by Chooky88 on 13 November, 2012, 13:44
Ummm when was it taken? Recently or 100 years ago?

....anyone else notice the creepy face bottom left of the tree? maybe that's the ghost an we got it all wrong.

It's a real person sitting on the grave, i Think Goths did these kind of pic alot some years ago....LOL....

The grave site was not the subject in the original photo. The photographer claims did not see the girl when she took the photo, and it was cropped later after she discovered the aberration.

What I see in her? but it is a shade that? ghosts do not have shadows is well known

Yes, the whole photo seems to have that light blur effect.
Comment icon #30 Posted by nothinggreatstaysthesame on 4 April, 2007, 23:28
......i'm more fascinated by the "smoke-like" apparation in the tree trunk!!!

Been to bachelors grove at night with a buddy and seen what appeared to be a younger girl in white and heard murmuring.The place is extremely spooky and can make a believer out you if you dare to take the walk.One of the best "ghost" captures I've seen.I'm a believer.

Yeah ghost can appear as a solid form and then disappear. So maybe it is a real ghost.....

"The woman was not there when the picture was taken." Says who? How do they know if this was just part of the background?

Gimme a break Gargyrl! You don't change the habits of a lifetime just because you've passed over! Habits and principles don't suddenly change. There's no-one over there telling you to 'Sit up straight!' You are what you are! I don't know if this is real, or fake; but what I do feel is that it is in very poor taste to sit on some-one's grave.
Comment icon #25 Posted by deyyaz on 5 September, 2005, 8:47
The girl was obviously there when the picture was taken.
Comment icon #24 Posted by spikeesam on 10 July, 2005, 11:00
I'll bet the girl was there when the photo was taken.
Comment icon #23 Posted by kevdogster on 10 July, 2005, 8:50
i've seen this photo dozens of times.....I'm not impressed
Comment icon #22 Posted by theghost_and_thedarkness on 30 June, 2005, 4:55
I think they just didn't notice her sitting there. I have never believed this photo was real. I mean, I can go take a picture of my neighbor looking forlorn and say "she wasn't there when I took the picture" Would that make her a ghost?
Comment icon #21 Posted by whitewitch on 11 June, 2005, 21:54
Of course wasnt there when you took photo of a grave (why a grave??) you added 'ghost' after taking it!!!
Comment icon #20 Posted by allenanddianna on 19 May, 2005, 5:24
Like I said before, who says a spirit has to be transparent ? We don't know what laws govern after we pass over after death. I wouldn't want to hang around a graveyard afterwards, after we lose our shell, our spirit is free to go whereever it wants, I believe freewill is still in force even then. If she is real, I feel she is mourning someone else who just passed over or someone who just left visiting her grave. It looks like she has the weight of the world on her shoulders either way..
Comment icon #19 Posted by filoli on 16 May, 2005, 13:41
Look at the light shining on her, the ground and the bench...then notice the shadow under her and behind her...only something solid can do that.
Comment icon #18 Posted by mtswf4lf on 23 March, 2005, 13:04
This one gives me the creeps. It would be nice if it were real but there's just no proof of weither or not the person who took it was telling the truth.
Comment icon #17 Posted by jacyra on 17 March, 2005, 4:23
whatever it is.. she's got nice hair lol
Comment icon #16 Posted by 123see on 16 March, 2005, 13:44
This picture was taken by a very respectable paranormal investigator with infrared film.
Comment icon #15 Posted by aravyndra on 4 March, 2005, 9:48
I've seen this on several paranormal tv shows. All concluded, cannot be proven to be a real ghost, but based on statments, the photo analysis and such, can not be proven to not be as well. Evidence inconclusive. so maybe.
Comment icon #14 Posted by nightwurm on 22 February, 2005, 7:29
Is this cropped?
Comment icon #13 Posted by hoagy on 12 February, 2005, 1:36
I live right by this place, and this picture has generated a lot of controversy. Personally I think this is a fake, if it's not then it has to be among one of the best, most clear ghost photo's ever taken. Apparently the picture was taken at night? looks like daytime to me tho....
Comment icon #12 Posted by spooky7272 on 14 December, 2004, 4:19
Ugh! i am so offended, that is me sitting on that headstone!!
Comment icon #11 Posted by recker on 24 November, 2004, 9:09
Once again we're being expected to believe that she wasn't there when the photograph was taken. If a photograph was being taken of the entire cemetary then it's unlikely whoever took it would have noticed her sitting there anyway.
Comment icon #10 Posted by foppishmoosh on 11 November, 2004, 14:54
Yes, this has to be fake as it is well known that a spirits sitting technique differs greatly from the 'slouch' method shown.
Comment icon #9 Posted by gargyrl on 7 November, 2004, 5:11
she is sitting and hunched over like a real human, if you ask me, and I know you didn't.
Comment icon #8 Posted by gemesis23 on 8 October, 2004, 10:19
The same shadows that are casted behind her are casted directly on her back as well, this is why I believe it is a real live woman.
Comment icon #7 Posted by grimlund on 5 October, 2004, 18:58
If I remember correctly from another website, this is actually a portion of a larger picture. People do like to take pictures of cemetaries (there are some beautiful engravings and architecture in some of them). This woman is actually in the distance of the larger picture.
Comment icon #6 Posted by bible girl on 5 October, 2004, 2:29
Ya, that was my first thought, what would someone take a picture of a tree stump and a gravestone in the distance for?
Comment icon #5 Posted by spidey2 on 2 October, 2004, 12:26
what was he taking a picture of in the first place?
Comment icon #4 Posted by azraelschroeder on 15 September, 2004, 20:58
could be real, but these kinds of that-person-wasnt-there-when-i-took-it things are very easy to hoax, of course...
Comment icon #3 Posted by joceeghost on 12 September, 2004, 0:36
this place is well known for is activity. I say it could be real
Comment icon #2 Posted by jadix on 21 August, 2004, 19:38
ya, i swear she wasn't there before! Looks like a bench anyway. I'd sit there anyday.
Comment icon #1 Posted by lyndam98 on 18 August, 2004, 17:43
THis is quite a well known one...but I have my doubts about it, really.
