I meant tags, because I would've looked at them and it wouldn't have been as awesome.

1994: Wilks Estate. One subject reported nothing out of the ordinary before taking photograph. Lower stairs area was said to be very dark. Subject states that after the camera flash she heard a sound like a watermelon being *unable to understand subject*.

5/25/93**

Subject unable to recall events after manor power failure. Unable to question other two identified subjects. Camera and film acquired from Gloria Cready, current resident of Woodview Mental Hospital and Psychological Rehabilitation Clinic. Film mostly uncontaminated despite mass of blood and human tissue present on camera. No positive ID on anomalous tall and slender subject. Facial blur caused by possible contamination.

6/7/93**

Early digital analysis indicates tall subject may have no eyes. Anomalies, previously thought to be film errors and flash artifacts, now thought to be appendages.

6/10/93**

Final identified subject reported missing along with other thirty-three patients and staff of Woodview Mental Hospital and Psychological Rehabilitation Clinic south wing.

6/18/93**

Further inquiry to cease immediately.

This one is a little too subtle. I played with brightness/contrast trying to find something, and still couldn't see it. I had to open both images and alt-tab between them quickly a few times before I could see any difference. After I found it, it's still hard to make out in the 'shopped pic, even knowing where to look.

Paraedolia found a 'face' that was already in the original, though.

Me and my freinds Amber and Emmy went to a local ruin one night "ghost hunting", we thought it was all just a joke until we got home to look at the photos and saw this! We we supposed to be sleeping in a tent in Amber's back garden, but after this all we could do was stay up all night in the living room. What the hell?

My contribution

I come from a family full of historians and ghost hunters. I fall into the former, only. My dad gives tours every summer of an old, dilapidated theater (the Ward Theater) at the Milwaukee Veteran's Hospital Campus. It used to be visited by traveling vaudeville shows (even the likes of Bob Hope and Bing Crosby) who did free shows for the vets. Dad always describes it on tours as "the happiest and saddest place on the grounds" and it feels that way. After the early 90s, they stopped repairing it and it's so bad now it will soon be condemned.


My Dad giving a tour. :)

Recently, the historians of the area opened up a small room on the second floor. The walls were covered with colorful posters from all the traveling shows and is suspected of being a warm up/dressing room for performers. Being a good daughter, I took yet another tour this year, became enchanted with the posters and started snapping pictures. Including this one.

Thinking about making a post

Think about it, make a post



In 1872, Russell Latimer bought 10 acres of farmland knowing that the Piqua and Indiana Railroad would be passing through this land. Then in 1873, the town that Latimer himself designed grew around the railroad route and become known as Latimer’s Station. This area is what we now know as the town of Latimer, Ohio.



Pictured are Russell's daughter Beatrice Latimer, son Jesse Latimer, and family friend Maude Harper. All three vanished without a trace on September 6th, 1891. After only a few hours of searching an Eastman Kodak camera was discovered with film still inside. The film was developed and the photo above retrieved.



When the FBI began searching nearby farms in the following weeks, they discovered a strange mechanism. The barn where this photo was taken is about 14 miles from the Latimer farm.

Interesting story, guys! So as you can see, this is a little street near my apartment. Everything seemed normal until people's pets started to go missing. My landlady found her cat dead in her back garden. It was terrible, she said. Her little Fluffy was all ripped and bloody. Then a little girl that lived in my building got attacked. When she came back from the hospital, her legs were covered in bandages. Her mother told me that the doctor said something had bitten huge chunks out of her flesh. She woke up every night screaming about something with red eyes.

When I went out at night, I started to have a feeling like something was watching me. My neighbors reported that sometimes they heard a deep, hoarse panting from alleyways when they walked by. Naturally, we were all very worried.

I was walking down the street one night when I heard a growling off to my left. I whipped out my camera phone and took a picture the best I could. The animal seen on the left then proceeded to run towards the man in front of me with fangs bared. I managed to scare it away by yelling and swinging my purse at it. It was the size of a dog but with larger teeth. It also smelled like rotting meat and its fur was patchy and diseased. It had horrible, glowing red eyes. It took a long look at me before it ran away.

Eh, that pic isn't so great, It took me a while to realize this black blob was the animal. Doesn't look like, well, anything.

Maybe add glowing red eyes?

Burn, Galactica! You're finished, Adama!
I've been seriously debating sharing these, but after Victor Surge's posts I feel I have to.

This first photo was given to me by my uncle, a police officer who was part of the investigation trying to find nine missing teens who had gone camping in the local mountains six years ago. It was developed from a disposable camera found at the campsite. None of the missing teens have ever been found, and all their possessions were still at the campsite. He was pretty drunk and shaken up when he gave me this, and made me promise I'd never show anyone else.



The second photo is of an elementary school fire in 1978. No official cause was ever found. Seven students and a teacher became trapped and died before firefighters could respond. Many of the students and teachers from the time have a history of anxiety disorders and panic attacks, even those who weren't at the school on that day. At least one has since committed suicide, and several others legally changed their names once they reached adulthood and have disappeared.

Mind if I have some fun with this one? The dietary lady where I works is huge on poo poo like this. She's even got a cloud goatse on her bulletin board with a prayer underneath it citing that they are the hands of god.

This woman is in her 30s-40s so she is not senile.
