    I'm sorry but I actually talk to ghosts. I work with deadly brugmansia/datura plants which have been used shamnically for thousands and thousands of years to talk to the dead.

    Trust me babe, you aren't going to find ghosts in your camera.

    i have to second what i think stalk is saying. our invisible friends are real enough, but precisely because they are, there's nothing "para" or otherwise big deal mumbo jumbo about them.

    if people want to scare themselves silly, i guess that's to each their own.
    there is so much REAL mystery inevitably in a universe so much wider the every awairness in it can imagine, that it makes no sense to manufacture mumbo jumbo about it other then to coerce and exploit each other, or entertain those who find gratification in superfiscial and artifical 'fears'.

    what i really question is this whole addiction to fear thing.

    i mean, there are scarry things that happen and all that, but that's all right here in the mundane world we walk arround awaike in.

    what is a disembodied awairness going to? bite you? with what?

    maybe it can throw dishes at you if it gets really pissed, but that's pretty much at the fringe of it. or give you bad dreams. it can't cut your break line, but i suppose it could make you swerve of the road, if you're driving like an idiot on a road you shouldn't be anyway.

    the point is, WHY create something to be afraid of out of what might be?
    is this supposed to be a way to get rich or some other stupid crap like that?

    then again i must be an idiot because i don't see what anyone gets out of trying to impress each other either. i mean maybe we're all born adicted to that a little bit, but looked at with even a little honesty, where's the gratification?

    anyways I never said I didn't believe it was a ghost, just really looks cartoonish!!

    And its all good enjoying and believing supernatural things but because you want to believe in something soooo much, dont let that blind you and never forget to QUESTION!!!! otherwise you will end up one of the very sheeple you disregard so much

    just because somebody posts some "cool shit" doesnt mean its real, and for many people when they find out its all crap this causes them to become over sceptical of anything similar in the future, which is the reall loss

    stalk- why are you so venomously against the IDEA that maybe ghosts can in fact be photographed? and I'm not talking about this specific photo

    Anyone genuinely interested in discovering the truth would exhaust all the possibilities for fakery and all alternative explanations before even considering that this might be genuine. Failing to do that makes me think you're not really interested in discovering the truth at all, but have made up your mind well before (credulity) and are just looking for confirmation of what you already believe...

    This is called confirmation bias, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Confirmation_bias

    wow thats pretty instense, and allthough i believe you might not have photoshopped it i still refuse to believe in ghosts or that the pic actually has one in it, i dunno, - believe nothing you hear, and only half of what you see i guess. :/

    that picture was really cool. Dunno if I believe it's a real ghost picture or not though… but I do believe in ghosts and spirits, as I believe I have seen one... and also, I think it's funnier to believe in supernatural things than not believing in it :p

    Yeah that is freaky! :^) Something that I used to fear when I was a kid all afraid of the dark was seeing a woman's ghost through a dark window. I don't even like to look at that picture of yours!

    You'd need to get it analysed by an expert, who should be able to tell you whether it is an optical print on silver-halide photographic paper or a digital print. If it's a digital print then this person is lying to you. That's the first step...

    It looks kind of like it's formed of steam or condensation on the window pane. Which to me does not make it unweird in the least. It seems like right next to that image I might see the reflection of the photographer. Don't know if that was mentioned already. My initial thought was that the girl hung herelf from the tree, but wondering if she did it in the kitchen. Note the red "Warning" sign, too! Certainly interesting.

    First when I looked at the pic, the girl's eyes looked closed. Then I thought of that "optical illusion" Jesus pic where if you look at it one way, the eyes look closed, then if you look again another way, the eyes are open and staring right at you. So I looked again and the eyes look open and staring right into the camera ... kind of a sad and horrified and maybe angry? expression.

    And yeah, any explanation for what the candles or streaks of white to the left of the little girl are? Or the white stuff above her?

    I don't believe in magic, and I don't believe in ghosts. I have no doubt that the photo is original, I just believe that the image can be easily explained if you were actually there and could examine everything. That's the whole basis of any magician's trick, just show the illusion from that angle and give a magical explanation. It would be far too easy for me to fake an image like that, so I'm sorry but I think you've been conned.

    Oh ya *do* believe in magic and ghosts! (Just kidding!)

    Now that it appears to me to be formed in condensation on the window it reminds me of a study I read about where researchers were examining how the mind recognizes patterns as, among other things, faces. Say in clouds or the Blessed Mother in a tortilla. My issue with the study, being conducted by the Japanese, I believe, was that they seemed to be focusing entirely on how the brain processes patterns and images. What they seemed to me to be ignoring entirely was the external physical existence of these patterns in the first place, including faces. I think it falls into the realm of chaos and fractals. Nature designs trees on much the same pattern as blood vessels. Clouds can look very much like intestines in their formation. A walnut, subdivided fractal whorls inside a shell, is quite similar to the physical formation of a brain inside the cranium.

    How is it that nature has "design patterns" in the first place? Maybe this girl (Who does look angry to me.), is manifesting in condensation on the window. I think the light and shape reflected in the background look like possibly the illumination from a light fixture or a camera flash, and the lady taking the picture.

    Must admit GhostLyric it looks pretty genuine.....One thing I did notice is that the facial features were extremely clear (almost like it was a transparent reflection). Any other pics I have seen of spirits tend to be a lot more blurred / fuzzy.
    Good for you, let us know when you get it analised. ;)

    thanks for the input guys, ive worked a bit on finding out who she is. i met a girl at the bar the other night who went to that facility and lived there for a while and new a girl that said she was going to hang herself, and she was really miserable, and she did, with a shower curtain, which, if you look at the actual picture that i have, it looks like a shower curtian, we thought it was a window curtian or maybe a blanket, but the girl i met recognized the back of the room, she told me theres a deck there, where the "apparition" is standing and peering from, and that a lot of the kids were miss treated over there....... still getting info, cant find a proffessional to check it out yet.
