5791 viewsI took the photo of this room with friends after my wife suddenly felt uneasy in the room. When the film was developed, this image appeared. There was no light visible at the time the picture was taken. The rest of the developed film did not have any other lights on them. There was no bright sunlight present in the room at the time of the photo. The day was a gray overcast day with no bright sun shining.

Basement Window6202 viewsDeborah writes: "On November 3rd, 1999, while on a donation job for Angel's Systems for Point Lookout lighthouse, myself and a co-worker Danny Stober finished the work assigned to us. I remembered stories about ghosts at the lighthouse from years ago. I had some film left on a roll of 110 I was keeping in my truck to get developed. I decided to use them on this job. When pictures were developed to my surprise there was a figure (ghost) in one of the pictures I had taken in a downstairs window of the lighthouse."

Many thanks to Deborah and Angels Systems, Inc. for sending this picture. The lighthouse was infested with fleas that had to be exterminated before the open house. Angel's...they not only get the bugs, they get the ghosts! Give them a call at: 1-800-662-8447.
