    Ghost Image Or Something Else?

    What do you think? A mother taking a video clip of her two-year-old daughter photographs what she believes to be a ghost of a woman dressed in Victorian-style clothes on her mobile phone.

    Here is a snippet from the news item on this:

    A STARTLED Carlisle mum believes she has photographed a ghost on her mobile phone.

    Stephanie Harty, 24, recorded the image at her home in Botcherby while taking a video clip of her two-year-old daughter Abigail.

    When she played the clip back, she was horrified to see what she says appears to be a woman in the doorway behind Abigail.

    Miss Harty, of Borland Avenue, said: “It completely freaked me out.

    “You can clearly see a woman dressed in Victorian-style clothes.

    “There was nobody else in the house, so it can only have been a ghost.

    “I was terrified. I kept all the lights on that night and haven’t been able to sleep there since.”

    The incident happened on Friday evening.

    The next day Miss Harty moved in with her mum Anne in Moorhouse Road.

    She plans to return to Borland Avenue soon.

    The property is rented from Carlisle Housing Association. Miss Harty moved there last summer and says nothing unusual has happened before.

    I do not see it.

    What do you think? A doll, a bed post, a real ghost? At this point we can only take the photographers word on it. Too bad there are no comparison shots that we are aware of.

    Mike BertaI do see the part of the image thew photog sees as a ghost. However, it could be a number of things. The resolution on camera phones is so low, the technology is so lack luster that misc. elements appear in them often.

    I have a picture of my dog with a blue-white aura around him from my camera phone. It looks cool, angelic, heavenly, paranormal maybe. But is the light from the window nearby.

    I suppose if the image offers comfort to the family, terrific. Otherwise it is just a camera glitch.

    And, I am a witness to the real thing.

    La Chanson de PhoenixIt looks a LOT like one of my daughter's play dolls. Like Barbie, only not Barbie herself. I'm judging this not just by having a doll like that, but the arch of the arms in front of the doll and the profile on the face. I see it quite clearly, but my first thought was 'doll'.

    DaveWell, the "arm" is obviously an errant strand of the child's hair. The rest could be a bedpost or any number of things.
