I don’t know these ladies nor where they were when this selfie was taken, but I can only imagine their surprise when they took a good look at it. The ghostly figure looks happy enough. I guess she was having a good time, too.
It may give some people pause and others a bit of a fright. There are also nay-sayers who will claim it’s fake. That’s fine, too. I’m wondering why the image is so small compared to the women in the picture. It makes me wonder if there was a picture on the wall behind them or some sort of reflection.
I do find the picture interesting . . . I have no real explanation . . . I can’t answer my own questions. I don’t like to think everything is a fake, but this doesn’t ring true to me, but what do I know. I could be taking a selfie one day and get the same type of thing and need to go through all kinds of explaining . . .
Well, real or fake it’s interesting. I do have a story, of course I do 🙂
Here’s Jake’s Story and why he now believes in ghosts.
He was up at his family’s cabin in Michigan with some friends on a Saturday night. He was afraid of the woods at night. Not that he believed in ghosts, but he was uncomfortable with what could be out there that he couldn’t see. It makes sense to me.
He began talking brave about the woods and such, so his friends decided to call his bluff. They bet that he couldn’t go out in the middle of the woods alone to a particular old logging site that is told to have a single grave with a candle that is always burning.
Jake wasn’t going to admit he was just “talking big” so he agreed. The proof was to take a selfie at the grave.
As he walked through the woods with a flashlight in one hand and his cell phone in the other, he thought about the cute animals that would be in the forest. He didn’t want to jump out of his skin when he heard the “hoot” of an owl.
The woods were quiet. He could hear the crunching of dead leaves and small twigs with every step he took.
He did find the grave, but the candle was not lit. He lit the candle and snapped the selfie.
Jake thought he heard someone talking. He looked around, but could see nothing. He thought a lone grave out in the middle of the woods was activating his imagination. He was curious, but also didn’t want to see anyone out in the woods — real or spirit.
He heard something fall with a loud thump. He looked around. Then he saw a man walking around in circles, like he was looking for something he lost. The strange thing was that his footsteps didn’t make any sound among the dead leaves and twigs.
Jake took off running for the safety of the cabin with the selfie to prove to his friends.
Sorry to report that there was nothing with him in his selfie snap shot.

Some people seem to be plagued by a ghost that follows them around for years.
Why is this?
I usually think it could be a relative, but I’ve found it has more to do with the positive or negative energy one gives off that attracts spirits to them.
I feel very fortunate to have family spirits around me. I also have some who just like my energy and stop by from time to time to see what’s going on. They’ll play with the lights by turning them on and off, just to let me know they are there. Sometimes a door will open and close. Nothing creepy or weird about it, at least not in my house.
Linda had the spirit of her best friend’s father visiting her regularly.
“My friend, Susan, and I were inseparable growing up. When her father died suddenly from a ruptured brain aneurysm he would visit in spirit form regularly at my house.”
Susan lived with her mother, but she didn’t have the same experiences at home as she did at Linda’s house.
Linda’s parents didn’t like the lights, television, computers, microwave, etc. turning on and off at odd hours of the day and night. They consults ghost hunters to assist them in solving their problem.
Yes, it was Susan’s father. They never did figure out why he would be at their house rather than their own.
Linda’s family moved several times, but Susan’s father followed them each time.
When Linda’s father got a promotion to move to another state, he thought this would sever the tie, his daughter had with Susan and her father, but it didn’t.
They consulted a psychic to find out what was going on with Linda’s connection to Susan’s father.
All the polite things were discussed between the psychic and Susan’s father. After that was exhausted and the psychic pressed him for an explanation, he admitted he was in love with Linda’s mother.
This didn’t set well with Linda’s parents. They were both kind to Susan and her father, but Linda’s mother never encouraged him in any way.
The psychic encouraged him to move on and leave Linda and her parents alone.
This worked out well for many years, until Linda went to college. There he was again, messing with electronic devices.
Linda lost touch with Susan after they moved out-of-state and found out her father’s love for Linda’s mother.
It seemed he continued to play out his fantasy of Linda, not Susan being his daughter. It may have been the confusion from his brain aneurysm.
Linda wanted to be kind to the confused ghost, but she also didn’t want to encourage him. She consulted a psychic to get him to move on. This worked for several years until she was expecting her first child.
Linda was afraid that Susan’s father’s spirit would go into her unborn child.
Linda’s husband thought she was crazy, but went along with his wife’s wishes. They had the house blessed and the unborn child blessed. Linda wanted to have a barrier between her family and that of Susan’s father’s spirit.
The birth of Linda’s son, was a spiritual experience.
Priests were present as was a psychic and family members. They were to be a barrier against Susan’s father’s spirit and Linda’s son.
Linda’s fears were proved accurate when the lights flickered in the delivery room. Doors rattled. The prayer group held fast to their task of keeping the unwanted spirit at bay. Many were pushed, hit and kicked, but they continued praying.
When they heard Linda’s son crying, they didn’t stop praying.
“My mother and father heard a loud pop, so did the psychic,” Linda said. “Then they saw a white light that almost blinded them. As they squinted, they saw the silhouette of a man walk into the light.”
Susan’s father finally gave up and went into the light.
Linda and her new family have had no paranormal experiences in their home. She is now the proud mother of three healthy sons.
It’s always nice to have a happy ending to a paranormal experience and it’s fortunate for Linda that it didn’t pass on to another generation.
