“Please find attached a photo which I thought may interest you. This photo is unedited and completely genuine. The photo was taken with a new camera phone by one of my friends in 2007. Interestingly if you adjust the brightness/contrast of the picture it makes parts of the image more visible. It is especially strange as the arm goes in front of the television. The face appears to also be a different shade to the area around it, this is as above more visible when the altering the brightness/contrast. I would be most interested in the response from your photograph experts.”

Ghostly photographs from Hauntings 
March 27, 2009 at 6:33 pm |
i swear i’ve seen this ‘ghost’ on another picture
September 23, 2012 at 5:10 pm |
Yeah, i’ve got this phone app too. Timewasting fake.
March 27, 2009 at 6:44 pm |
That looks like Gordon Ramsay to me..
May 19, 2009 at 8:35 pm |
ZOMG IT DOES. xD
November 4, 2009 at 9:19 pm
it SO does, lol.
September 18, 2011 at 11:49 am |
he’s pissed off because the photographer isn’t watching Hell’s Kitchen. LOL seriously though, trying to believe these photographs and having shot a few weird ones myself, I’m finding it increasingly hard to believe in the credibility of most of these.
March 27, 2009 at 6:57 pm |
Photoshop…
March 28, 2009 at 8:02 am |
I think this is a real ghost !
March 27, 2009 at 7:12 pm |
uau…
March 27, 2009 at 7:14 pm |
It really is!!! Wow! That’s unexplainable…
July 23, 2011 at 8:19 am |
????????????????????? There’s explanations for everything if u care to take a bit of a closer look into things, as well as do some investigating into the facts. Photoshop is a gr8 tool being used to fake or manipulate pics just to get their own fame. It is obviously NOT real. I could tell just by taking one, single glance at it.
March 27, 2009 at 7:40 pm |
I’m a scientist by training and profession and so I take these things with a very large pinch of salt, however the face of the figure looks remarkably like my late father. Ok, it’s vague and one could maybe see what one wants to see, but the thing that really made me think is the image on the tv – this looks like it is some sort of RNLI function. My father was very active in the RNLI and was the honorary secretary for his local station. I’d be very interested to know when and where in the country this image was taken.
March 29, 2009 at 10:06 pm |
wow that’s crazy. I don’t know much about “ghost”. I am very stubborn when it comes to actaully believing in that stuff. But, it seems to me you might have found the ghost of your father. Maybe it’s just a coincidence?
March 30, 2009 at 10:12 am |
Hi John
The photo was taken in Scotland, Motherwell in 2007. It was a Falklands war memorial programme on the TV
March 27, 2009 at 7:43 pm |
Possibly reflected light from a picture or image elsewhere in the room !
March 27, 2009 at 8:20 pm |
there is no way this is a camera phone picture also you could photoshop that in 5 sec
March 27, 2009 at 9:15 pm |
hmmm does look like another pic has been overlaid, boy does seem to be actually looking into camera like he is curious, similer to photos taken at beginning of last centuary, remain to be convinced
March 27, 2009 at 9:48 pm |
That’s 100% photoshopped, its a overlayed b+w photo with opacity taken down to like 10%, with a rather rubbish preset Photoshop lens flare
come on this is too fake, why would there be so much light in that bottom section of the picture? Theres not enough light bounce on the walls or floor for that to be a real light source. I’ll make one now and post it up.
March 27, 2009 at 10:00 pm |
Interessante. Antes de escrever que a foto foi editada com photoshop, é necessario saber se essa foto foi tirada com camera digital ou maquinas antigas que usam rolos de filmes, pq com o rolo do filme dá pra analisar se é fraude ou não.
July 23, 2011 at 8:16 am |
YOUR COMMENT HAS BEEN IGNORED! WHY? CAUSE NO ONE CAN UNDERSTAND A FUCKING THING YOU’VE SAID. SPEAK ENGLISH OR NOT AT ALL!
March 27, 2009 at 10:56 pm |
My first impression is waht a good quality picture for a phone camera! I wonder what make it was.
The style of dress and hair cut of this boy looks to be around the 1950’s to me. His body appears to be too low to the floor to be standing on the current floor level.
Of all the photos, I find this one hard to explain. If it could be proved genuine, I think it would be very interesting indeed. However, my intuition about the this photo says…… probably photoshoped!
March 27, 2009 at 11:33 pm |
As a photographer, one question I would have to ask is why this photo would have been taken in the first place- if the person did not know the ‘ghost’ was there when taking the picture…
March 27, 2009 at 11:58 pm |
I don’t know. I just don’t see how anybody could ever guarantee how ANY of these photos could EVER be genuine. Yes, there is the issue of Photoshop et al, but long before there was digital editing, there were plenty of ways to doctor and fake photographs. I have to say that I don’t see how any ghost photograph could ever have been genuine in the past, either. What would be convincing?? About 10 people all seeing the same ghost!
March 28, 2009 at 1:18 am |
Biggest fake I ever saw.
March 28, 2009 at 6:41 am |
impossible. but who knows..
March 28, 2009 at 6:52 am |
I this was real and it was a camera phone that telly would hav lines all over it and why would someone take a pic of a tv for fun?????
on the other hand its quite eerie
March 30, 2009 at 7:48 pm |
I’ve took loads of meaningless pictures with my mobile camera. Why would you take this picture because it costs nothing to take a digital picture. Also if a cameras resolution is good enough you can take a picture of television screen with no lines
March 28, 2009 at 9:23 am |
Nice editing job…but the most plausible of all.
March 28, 2009 at 10:37 am |
this is a fake.
March 28, 2009 at 11:03 am |
The torso is caused by lens flare over the shirt on the radiator. The right side of the head is two of the highly aliased window blinds. I’m guessing that the rest is compression artifacts of the blinds being next to the sharp edge of the TV.
March 30, 2009 at 9:01 am |
thats what i thought on first glance..but i also agree with the people saying why would you take a photo of the tv?
March 28, 2009 at 11:24 am |
Well, Photoshop can make it look lke this, that’s for sure. But, if this photograph is not altered in any way, it really is a question …
It is the matter of the believing … Until you see a ghost by yourself … 🙂
March 28, 2009 at 1:39 pm |
To be honest you can take a really good photo with a phone cam i take all my holiday pic and general pics with mine i brought it with that in mind and they come out excellent clearer than my normal digi cam. I also took non specific photos with it to test it none with a ghost in mind you but people do, to test the quality. if you read the entry it was a new phone they used, so perhaps they were messing about with it and this came up ghost or not it may be genuine with a paranormal explination or reflextion who knows but its a good one ill say.
March 28, 2009 at 2:20 pm |
The guy doesn’t seem to have any feet.
July 23, 2011 at 8:09 am |
You call urself skeptic, ay? And that is all u have to say??? What a load of crap. Get another job or skill cuz it’s obvious u suck in a career as being a sketic…roflmfao
July 23, 2011 at 8:32 am |
not all ghosts can fully materialize themselves. this photo is a fake.
July 23, 2011 at 8:36 am |
ghosts don’t always come in full-form. it is very hard to manifest in to complete human form if there’s not enough energy to draw from. most pics of ghosts are rarely seen in full form-being that usually the body’s extremities & head r the last to form. anyways, i do believe that this pic has been faked.
March 28, 2009 at 2:39 pm |
Why would someone take a picture of the TV unless it was “staged”?
March 28, 2009 at 3:17 pm |
I have just taken a photo of my TV using my mobile and the picture is every bit as good as this one with no lines at all. Also interested by the orbs, although am aware that these can be the flash reflecting dust particles, if it is a camera phone and given the light in the room it is quite likely a flash was not used.
I am finding this whole experiment interesting because, fairly obviously, photo’s can be fiddled around with in many ways nowadays. Skeptics will always be skeptical and believers will always be convinced, no amount of photo ‘evidence’ will change a skeptics mind (due to photoshop etc) and no amount of skeptics poo poo-ing evidence will convince the believer!
March 28, 2009 at 4:06 pm |
Image is coming off the guy on left of telly. Looks like David Mccullum
March 28, 2009 at 7:26 pm |
Looks to me as though the camera has had a double exposure, for one the boy is to short to be standing in the room, also the property looks very new which would say to me that any sort of Demonic possesion wouldnt be occuring there.
March 28, 2009 at 8:51 pm |
OK, I’ve had another good look at this one. Cut and paste it in to ‘photo editor’ and bring it up to 400%.
Look at this one now with the eye of an artist. Notice the blue towel (or whatever it is) on the radiator? Do you see the fold at the bottom? Or is the bottom of the boys jumper? Hard to tell what is what isn’t it? The ‘fold’ in the towel then extends over the top of the TV stand, and this definately looks like the bottom of the boys jumper. Also notice that the boys jumper appears to finish in a straight line?
I think the fold in the towel has been used to hide the tell tale edge of a superimposed picture (although the edge has been stepped a bit on the right hand side to help break the line up). I think the left hand edge of the superimposed picture has been hidden by the natural line of a radiator indent and a ‘mudge’ has been applied to the top of the shoulder.
This is why the boy is too short for the picture, the artist had to make use of the natural background features to conceal the process of superimposing. Very well done though!
July 23, 2011 at 8:12 am |
don’t u have a life??? why do u keep trying to convice yourself that u have to either debunk or prove that this pic is real or not. GET A LIFE U IDIOT!
March 29, 2009 at 12:46 am |
Look at the green plate on the shelf in the left of the picture. clearly a photoshop.
March 29, 2009 at 2:37 am |
It really is ghost
March 29, 2009 at 12:46 pm |
The green plate on the shelf is just flare I believe, similar to the 3 more obvious flares behind it.
The picture just seems a little contrived to me, and I would agree with the comment that there’s a question as to the reason a picture was being taken of this room at all.
Still, as many others have said, it nearly is impossible to validate a picture, probably far, far easier to discount it – videos would be a better source, as then you can really get a sense of movement/shape and conditions. Perhaps Richard could run an experiment with that – ask people to send in their ghosts caught on tape videos!
March 29, 2009 at 1:55 pm |
uau… realmente está é de arrepiar …
July 23, 2011 at 8:13 am |
SPEAK ENGLISH OR GET OUT OF HERE!
March 29, 2009 at 4:50 pm |
Its kinda freaky how it looks like a mans head on a childs body
March 29, 2009 at 5:19 pm |
Here is a proof that it’s photoshoped.
Look at the lens flare in both pictures, in original and the one I made.
April 7, 2009 at 4:20 am |
Excellent post mate! THis kills this photo outright! Without a doubt! Very very well done! I hope this annoys all the pathetic ghost believing dick heads once and for all! good one! Spread this about loads, just to make sure those stupid twats at ghoststudy don’t fling it about as genuine! HAHAH! 🙂
July 23, 2011 at 8:03 am
OMG…YOU’RE STILL ALIVE? Pleeeez fuck off & die! u fucked up wanker sucking & blowing piece of pig shit being ate by maggots who love rotten flesh. May u rot in hell & die of the worst painful & horrifyingly death that is possible.
March 29, 2009 at 6:12 pm |
I also think I’ve seen this “boy” in a famous picture somewhere.
Looks like an ols black & white picture, simply overlaid with transparency of 95%.
Note also that he is way too small for his apparent age. I’m sorry, this looks very much like an intentional fake and designed to decieve.
March 30, 2009 at 6:40 am |
nice one, GhostBuster.
Haha, next!
March 29, 2009 at 9:47 pm |
If it’s a ghost then it must be a weird ghost. Obviously not standing on the same level…Doesn’t look real…probably photoshopped…nice pic though
July 23, 2011 at 8:28 am |
DUH…how many times have u heard ghosts appearing to b floating or walking on air. That’s because they live in higher plains than we do, and r rarely seen walking on the floor-unless they have not crossed over. As for this photo…it IS a fake.
March 30, 2009 at 4:44 am |
Golden Girls HD.
March 30, 2009 at 9:54 am |
I sent this photo in. It is not edited it was took with a brand new phone just to check out out the quality of the picture it took. It was not until the picture was opened on the computer that you could see the image. If you blow the picture up you can see it has not been edited as the pixels are all the same size. It was a Falklands war memorial programme that was on the television.
April 7, 2009 at 4:22 am |
BULLSHIT! You have been exposed by GhostBuster! Now just settle down and feel pathetic! You waste of space! Wanker!
July 23, 2011 at 8:05 am
GHOSTBUSTER DID NOT TAKE THIS PIC SO STOP TELLING PPL THAT THE OWNER OF THIS PIC ADMITTED IT WAS PHOTOSHOPPED. And u need to fuck off & die! u fucked up wanker sucking & blowing piece of pig shit being ate by maggots who love rotten flesh. May u rot in hell & die of the worst painful & horrifyingly death that is possible.
March 30, 2009 at 12:42 pm |
Photo manip.
March 30, 2009 at 5:03 pm |
The photo was taken with a Samsung SGH D600. The picture on the blog is a lower resolution than the original. There is a lot of people saying photoshop edit. Before you decide you should look at the original full quality picture zoomed at over 1000%
April 7, 2009 at 4:23 am |
BULLSHIT! You have been exposed by GhostBuster! Now just settle down and feel pathetic! You waste of space! Wanker! Admit defeat for Christ’s sake! How low can one be?!!!!
July 23, 2011 at 8:01 am
SHUT UP SHUT SHUT UP & SHUT THE FUCK UP & fuck off & die! u fucked up wanker sucking & blowing piece of pig shit being ate by maggots who love rotten flesh. May u rot in hell & die of the worst painful & horrifyingly death that is possible.
March 30, 2009 at 7:36 pm |
Sorry Chris, But how can you explain the GhostBuster post where he posted yhis picture:
Congratulations GhostBuster! Photoshop can do miracles!
March 30, 2009 at 7:54 pm |
It seems to me that people are just saying photoshopped without coming up with any real explanation of why it is a photoshop. Pretty pointless. Come on if you have your doubts tell us why
April 7, 2009 at 4:24 am |
LOOK AT “GhostBuster”‘s post! Are you blind???????????? It is blatantly Photoshopped! LOOK! JUST LOOK! Simple enough!
July 23, 2011 at 8:00 am
OMG-just pleeez shut the fuck up & fuck off & die! u fucked up wanker sucking & blowing piece of pig shit being ate by maggots who love rotten flesh. May u rot in hell & die of the worst painful & horrifyingly death that is possible.
March 31, 2009 at 1:59 pm |
I tend to be skeptical of any “ghostly” picture when a so-called apparition shows up in black and white. I believed black and white ghosts went out of fashion with the invention of colored film.
Another reason is that your ghost looks posed and iconic – like an old picture of my great grandparents when they were young and dressed in their Sunday best. It just looks very staged.
Also, the light/glare from the sun somehow appears in front of the TV. The way the TV is angled should not allow light to glare in front of it. This kind of says to me that this particular pic was altered and it is the imposed image that has caused this unaccounted brightness.
March 31, 2009 at 3:06 pm |
Yes I now agree. My friend has been telling porkies. I now agree that it has been done in photoshop and is a fake. Thanks
April 7, 2009 at 4:27 am |
No! YOU SENT THE P ICTURE IN! You should take responsibility! WHat friend? It was you! Tough shit mate. You’ve just admitted through pressure that you faked a pic, and everything before this, was lies. Typical ghost believer bullshit! All of it is shit!
July 23, 2011 at 7:56 am
u need to fuck off. ur comments r NOT appreciated when u consist of constantly name calling ppl whom u don’t even kno! whether ppl’s comments r valid or not, u definitely r showing a lack of reform & poor gesture. it’s obvious that u have little else to do, but leave bullshit comments on this page. it’s obvious u have NO life at all, soooo…..fuck off & die! u fucked up wanker sucking & blowing piece of pig shit being ate by maggots who love rotten flesh. May u rot in hell & die of the worst painful & horrifyingly death that is possible.
April 1, 2009 at 4:24 am |
Uhhhh I truly cannot see anything that looks like a ghost in this photo I can’t see a thing.
July 23, 2011 at 8:30 am |
get glasses, dude! btw…you’re not missing much.
April 2, 2009 at 10:34 pm |
this is one of the best ive seen, well done!!
April 18, 2009 at 7:06 am |
hmm..comments more interesting than picture. light glare.. its unlikely but in one in a million shots glare is gonna look like a person, SO its gonna look like a ghost. explains all of these types of pics. btw, free advice from professional photographer: dont take ur holiday pictures on camera phone. bad idea.

April 22, 2009 at 9:59 pm |
Yes. Because everyone takes pictures of their television, off-center in the frame, with no other subject matter.
Fake.
May 3, 2009 at 10:43 am |
Nice clothes there on the heater : )
June 24, 2009 at 10:20 pm |
It is a photshop of the boy off the “haunted painting” The Hands resist Him. Google it
August 26, 2009 at 7:03 am |
I always wounder why people take random photos of their TVs?
These photos I always treat as suspicious
October 9, 2009 at 12:39 pm |
Fake.
October 11, 2009 at 3:47 am |
Unless this image has been cropped from a larger image of something more intersting than a TV I think we are being conned. Now excuse me while I go and take a photo of my DVD player.
November 5, 2009 at 1:34 pm |
It kinda looks both.. faked and real…. the face and head look fake, but the burriness of the body make it look real…. hard to say… We have a paranormal team, and we’ve had to decifer between lots of photos…. its also the question to what else was in the room etc…
November 9, 2009 at 12:55 pm |
i think this is genuine as there is an orb to the left of the picture by the shelves, and as orbs depict energy, the face by the tv is totally explainable as a ghost through this connection.
March 8, 2011 at 11:26 am |
Will you please look at the comments? It’s a fake! He admitted that it’s a fake! It has fake lense flare from Photoshop. It’s a piss take, and you look stupid for your ignorant and ridiculous comment! Typical fluffy ghost believer! HAHA!
July 23, 2011 at 7:58 am
There’s no where on this page where the person who took this pic admits to photoshopping it, or faking it. fuck off & die! u fucked up wanker sucking & blowing piece of pig shit being ate by maggots who love rotten flesh. May u rot in hell & die of the worst painful & horrifyingly death that is possible.
July 23, 2011 at 7:41 am |
It’s nothing more than a glare caused by the sun coming thru the window, therefore, causing a reflection off of the TV’s screen. Not paranormal. Also, the person who took this pic admits to it as being a fake! Before posting comments u need to read all comments left.
February 3, 2010 at 10:56 pm |
i have cropped and zoomed in on this picture using various software and have also spotted a second face in the picture to the right of the boy image just near the boys hand.it appears to be looking up and out into the room.
February 4, 2010 at 3:38 pm |
I don’t find anything wrong in taking a picture of the livingroom. Worse pictures have been taken. The ghost boy most probably showed up due to the drying process of the clothes on the heater element. Another possibility, although most unlikely, is the use of a photo-editor.
February 4, 2010 at 3:40 pm |
Wow… have you see the size of these pants!?
July 23, 2011 at 7:38 am |
It’s nothing more than a glare caused by the sun coming thru the window, therefore, causing a reflection off of the TV’s screen. Not paranormal. Debunked!
July 23, 2011 at 8:21 am |
The man’s face looks like the ex-president George Bush…lmao
August 18, 2011 at 12:51 am |
Looks exactly like a pic I saw of a very young Ted Kennedy.
September 28, 2011 at 8:53 pm |
September 28, 2011 at 9:17 pm |
It is so easy to produce images like this with software like PS.
Throughout the history of photography, photographers have tried to fool people with estonishing pictures. It is even easier to tell a story around such a picture and the nature of people will make these stories more beautiful and more mystical. This is not something only for the past generations, but today this remains unchanged.
So, please come with some hard evidence for this (and other) pictures.

Yesterday, while I was at work, my cousin stole my iPad and tested to see if it can survive a 25 foot drop, just
so she can be a youtube sensation. My apple ipad is now broken
and she has 83 views. I know this is entirely off
topic but I had to share it with someone!
