What's The SD On The "Corroboree" Ghost Photo?

Oh, I was looking for ghostly images in the headlights and not an anthropomorphization of the car.

Ghost girl in the town hall fire is a fake.

I just shat brix.

Interesting. I should send that link to Forgetomori.

I should also note that both the “Jesus” photo and the fire photo are on the “Slightly Warped” site. I chose the Forgetomori link because it specifically discussed pareidolia.

That “demon” photo indeed looks an awful lot like a dog to me. I strongly assume that it’s either a willfully produced hoax or an opportunistic one (dog jumped into the original picture and participants decided to “run with it”).

Further, any mention (that I could find) of Jane Churm is on the paranormal sites. Wikipedia says of the incident, in it’s entirety:

In 1677, a fire destroyed many of the wooden buildings in the town.

This makes things even clearer, slide the ‘fade’ bar to overlay the photos, it is clear that they are the same.

Thank you for those sites, I’ll be able to sleep easy now tonight. :stuck_out_tongue:

Not having seen this particular photo before, I want to hereby add that it it’s quite a wow. Utterly astonishing.

Aaah, I’m an ex-theist and newly-minted skeptic but that dog photo is giving me the willies!

Well, my interested in the (Australian) photo comes from the fact that there seems to be little or nothing written about it. Did the minister just happen to point his camera and shoot? Why was he in the bush?
The photo appears to show a woman holding something-or maybe not.
Has any kind of analysis ever been done on the photo?
Ghost are said to be connected to some awful events; so why would the minister be snapping photos at randome, to find this image coming up.
If it is a fraud, why wasn’t it dismissed long ago?

If I may take a stab at the last question, it may be because it is not an interesting or popular enough image or story to bother debunking. There is no need to examine closely something that no one is advocating.

Also, proving a ghost photo a fraud has absolutely no connection to whether or not it’s still making the rounds of internet ghost photo sites. Many times, even when you categorically debunk one of these things, the ghost woo-woos dismiss the debunking completely and go right on their merry “IT’S REAL!” way.

Yes. Long after The Amityville Horror was exposed as a hoax (the lawyer of Butch DeFeo, the convicted killer, admitted that he and the Lutz family made it up for money), fans of the paranormal were citing it to me as “the BEST-documented proof of paranormal activity.” People who want to believe will ignore anything that they have to in order to keep believing.

Not for a ghost.

So, I found out by accident that yes, you can indeed do double exposures with a digital camera.

How do you know it wasn’t?

So glad these links are blocked at work. I don’t even know why I’m here, ghosts scare me so bad.
