Magikman 8 #1 Posted April 20, 2002 "This picture was taken without anyone knowing an apparition may have been caught on film, seeing as how the shape only appeared in the picture AFTER it was taken. No one was aware of a ghostly presence or strange activity when the photo was snapped. The picture was taken in Kramer, Pa., circa 1977. It has received moderate attention in local newspapers in the past." Magikman Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Loonboy 14 #2 Posted April 20, 2002 I have not seen this one before and although it does look sort of like a person, it is very slender and not at all lifelike. My guess is that it's a tarpaulin draped over a pole or something and by chance it just looks like a sort of figure. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Althalus 17 #3 Posted April 20, 2002 I agree with Loonboy on this, it does look like a sheet hung on a pole. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mentalcase 365 #4 Posted April 20, 2002 I assume those are people on the scaffold? Those people are about the same hieght as the apparition. Their heads are about the same size too. If the people are painting a cloth would fit perfect into this picture. I agree with Loon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Saru 8,725 #5 Posted April 21, 2002 Magikman, Unfortunately the File Attachments addon isn't yet compatable with the Poll Addon, so we will have to wait for someone to release a patch to include the attachment ability in a poll thread. With any luck someone will achieve this quite quickly, since both addons are very popular. I agree with everyone here in that the ghost looks more like a sheet draped over a pole or something along those lines. I'd vote for "Something else" as well. :s03 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cleo_patra45 0 #8 Posted June 15, 2002 it kinda looks like a normal person. Or just a blanket on a pole. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kira 3 #9 Posted June 20, 2002 :s6 Looks like a pole and tarp but if it is does make you look twice Vote: Something else :sr Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ParanormalGirl626 0 #10 Posted July 19, 2002 I think it looks too real. It's too..'real' to be a ghost. But at first site, I was like "WOAH! That's freeeaky!" :s2 I had to read some replies, and look again. Yup, too real...know what I mean? :s6 :sn ParanormalGirl626 :sn l_ I so tierd..-.- _l Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mystify 32 #11 Posted July 29, 2002 I agree with most of you here. It could very well be many things. On the other hand....I personnaly still don`t know what a ghostly image really looks like. Do they have the same bodily features? Or are they disoriented in size and shape? Are they all transparent or mostly Opaque? Given the fact that I can`t distiguish between a ghost and a blur on a picture yet.... I have to go with Undecided. It`s not like we have anything to truly compare it to. I honestly can`t wait till we as a race have figured out a little more about these spirits that inhabit our world. These debates would be sooooooo much simpler Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
im_too_scared 0 #12 Posted February 12, 2003 it looks like Mary, as in the mother of Jesus Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wolfsinger 0 #13 Posted February 27, 2003 I think its a little too real looking to be a ghost...... cuz most ghosts that r caught in pictures r usually one color, like gray or occasionaly (i've seen a couple) green. AND this pic is kinda beige and some other colors.......... I think its fake.... thatz only my opinion though......... it might be real.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Messiah 01 0 #14 Posted March 1, 2003 I agree with Loonboy, its too slender to resemble a human form. Probably someone with too much spare time and a spare table cloth. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Guest #15 Posted March 28, 2003 how can anyone actually think this looks paranormal? its so clearly just a piece of cloth for the painters to wipe their brushes on.......disappointing...( Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dean-g 0 #16 Posted March 29, 2003 i'm inclined to agree with most of you, it's not paranormal, more likely to be draped cloth. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Maybe the bucket of paint fell on the person. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest dragonX #18 Posted April 14, 2003 yeah it looks like a cloth on a pole but i'm still skeptical cause you can see some of the ladder through the cloth, if it was just a cloth on a pole it would be solid and not partly transparent, but maybe i'm wrong, i'm still undecided Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vikki 0 #19 Posted May 8, 2003 seen the film Braveheart? doesnt it look like a side view of the woman when they r getting married in the woods (well i think so anyway ). Am not sure wot to think of it though, if its real or not Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pauli 0 #21 Posted May 10, 2003 Where's the Ghost ? I can only see a rag on a stick Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
macabre_existence 0 #22 Posted May 12, 2003 There are so many skeptics here. While I do agree that the quality of the picture is not good, that does not necissarily make it a "hoax". Moreover, ghosts do not, and usually, don't appear totally human-like. At times they don't possess arms,legs, or even heads. This picture is hard to determine, yes.

dust19 0 #23 Posted May 13, 2003 hey wait a minute! That's the same ghost that helped me when I painted my house!! It was weird because one minute there was nothing there...but when i put my dropcloth up on a stick the ghost appeared! I think this is what's known in ancient lore as a stick phantom. They only appear when you drape a rag on a stick..I think maybe that is what brings them back to this side... ....ok well, it does look like a ghostly person, and it does look creepy...so it's still cool then.

Guest jacfu #24 Posted May 14, 2003 just after pic was snapped..... "Ah, man. I didn't see that lady in the jacket walking by that pole. She just blends in with the buidling. Oh well. I'll develop it and then say I didn't see her. What could possibly go wrong?" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DEADWALKER1 0 #25 Posted July 5, 2003 Well the picture could be considered as an Arabic woman walking and not nessicarily a Ghost. thats my opinion, and soon a topic about the green lady ghost and cemetary will be posted!!! (located in CT) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
