For some time, folks have been
sending us images taken in the region where something strange has
caught their eye. We've decided to post a handful so everyone has a
chance to decide whether each is a ghostly presence or perhaps just
a trick of the mind. Have fun! If you want to send us your
photographs, please be assured we will not scrutinize them online
and instead, we want viewers to decide on their own if the picture
looks "real" or not. (you will notice that we only scrutinize
our own once in a while!)

These two pictures were taken at Horsehead Grotto at
Conkle's Hollow by Keith and
Margarette - Toledo, Ohio
"We visited the Horsehead Grotto and diagonal cave earlier
in the day before the investigation. We took three pictures.
Mysteriously they all came out blurred. They were in the
middle of a roll so that in itself seemed strange. I did not
see anything unusual in the one for diagonal cave. However,
the two at Horsehead grotto were "interesting". I am sending
these two. When Margarette took the picture of me, I was
acting like I was holding the rock up. We had mused at
several locations about how the rocks looked suspended and
or ready to fall. If you look at this picture everything is
out of focus except...if from the left you look just pass
the halfway point(to the right) and from the bottom you
look just past the halfway point (up) you will notice the
word " mary" very clear, it almost appears it is surrounded
by a heart shape. This is extremely strange in that nothing
is in focus except that. I am very very curious as to
whether this word is actually on the rock at the site. . ." |

This
picture was taken at Old Man's Cave-Upper Falls
"During our recent visit to the Upper Falls of Old Man's
Cave Gorge, one of our pictures seemed to show a face
and partial body in the falls.

This picture was taken with
an infrared camera at Lake Alma State Park where the old
amusement park once stood. If you look to the right of the
picture, it appears as if a figure is standing in the trees.
Upon closer scrutiny of the picture, we believe the figure
is really leaves. |

We believe this figure, too, was nothing more than leaves. |

This picture was taken with
an infrared camera at Lake Alma State Park where the old

It appears there is a "clear" form walking away. I
would not have even considered this photo as anything more
than light playing on the camera lens if someone hadn't told
me they had been startled by a form that looked just like
this - |
This

Park where the old amusement park once stood. Look to the
right of the arrow. I could easily see the form of a woman
with hands in her lap that looks as if she is sitting down
watching with a bored expression.

Just a note: I went
back a year later in early October 2007 to get some more
shots. Strangely. . . or maybe not so strangely, the old
lady was there again. I was taking pictures from a different
angle and. . .this time, I think she noticed me! You don't
have to look closely to see her leaning slightly to the
left. It looks like she has a friend this time next to her!

Ghostly figure taken at
Moonville Tunnel by Nicholas

This photo was taken at Lake
Alma looking out over the lake from where the amusement park
once stood. It appears to be a boat in the water with people
on it? You decide . . .

The original photo as submitted by Michelle
Schrader. Here is herr story: "
I was camping at Lake Hope and I fully
intended on visiting the Moonville
Tunnel while I was there. I had previously visited the
tunnel before this particular visit. I went with two other
friends in the middle of the day last fall, at the beginning
of October. We took a bunch of pictures, I was using my
digital camera. I did not notice that there was a "figure"
in the picture until I downloaded it on to my computer when
I got home. Upon magnifying the shadow, it appears to be a
manly looking figure. It gave me complete chills. I have
shared the picture with lots of people, and we are all
baffled. There is no reasonable
explanation for the figure. It does go along with the
legend of the tunnel, though.
Apparently, based on the story that I have heard,
there was a brakeman that was killed in the tunnel, and if
you look at the figure, it appears that his leg is missing
from the photo, you can see right through his leg. Creepy,
huh? "
