The 20 most convincing photos of ghosts ever taken - #9 will give you the creeps (See Photos) | Page 14 of 14

Photos of ghosts: For centuries, there has been strong debate as to whether ghosts really exist. While many people think that ghosts are just a figment of the imagination, something dreamed up by Hollywood writers to sell tickets and scare moviegoers, others have had experiences that just can’t be explained with logic. Objects missing or even moving around, lights turning off and on, footsteps, voices, and wailing are just a few of the paranormal experiences some people have faced in the past that are just unexplainable.

For years, cameras and video recording equipment has also caught weird things not seen by the person taking or posing for the photo. Light orbs are said to represent spirits, while transparent, ghastly images have been caught on film as well. Sometimes, even a person with detailed features has made a surprise appearance in photographs.

While paranormal experts insist that ghosts are real, there are still people that just don’t believe. These 20 photos are scary, haunting and may be a little more persuasive for those who think that ghosts are all just part of scary horror stories.

20. A Spooky Hand Hovers over a Bureau

In the early 20 th century, a photo was snapped of a Queen Anne bureau. Nothing seemed off about the bureau until the photo was developed. Once developed, there was a white, transparent hand hovering over the top of it. The photo is taken in such a way that a body would be seen if someone else was in the photo. However, a body is not seen in the picture, just the hand dangling over the top of the bureau. Unfortunately, due to the age of this particular ghost photo, there is not much more information or a backstory that could explain what happened.

The photographer insists that no one was in the room with him when he snapped the shot. Many people have questioned the validity of the photo simply because the figure is just too clear.

Only a handful of people were in the church at the time the photograph was taken and none had gone into the loft area.

6. Ghost in Austria Just Wants to Join the Party

In 1988, a group was enjoying themselves at the Hotel Vierjahreszeiten in Austria. They wanted to get a photo of the entire group, so a member of the party set the self-timer and set the camera down on a nearby table. When the camera took the shot, the flash did not go off, so the man reset the camera and got a different shot with the flash on. Once the film was developed, both photos came out okay. However, the first shot without the flash had an extra guest. A blurry head, much larger than those of the other guests, is squeezed in between two other people. The head is not seen in the second shot. No one in the photo recognized the unknown person, and photo experts have claimed that this phenomenon was not the result of double exposure.
