These unexplainable photos are not for the faint of heart. Be warned: some of these are truly scary. I wouldn't look at these by myself or late at night. The rule with reading about ghosts is only doing it when it is still safe to feed a Mogwai. 1. "GHOST" HAUNTS THIS WOMAN'S NEW HOME After just moving into a new house in England, Michelle Midwinter went outside to take a quick picture of home sweet home. It wasn't until Michelle looked back at the pic later that she noticed a face staring through the downstairs window. When she posted the picture online, a local historian, Andrew Jones, determined that the man in the photo could have been the apparition of "Old Man Kent," who was a suspect in a famous murder case in 1860. As a non-ghost believer, Michelle initially thought it was nothing more than a reflection of the flower bush in her front yard. But after seeing the picture, hearing weird noises coming from the walls, and seeing her lights flicker, she couldn't help but wonder if it was, in fact, the face of the man. telegraph.co.uk 2. LITTLE GIRL PHOTOBOMBED IN JAPAN BY WHAT PEOPLE CALL "THE GHOST OF A SAMURAI" While innocently minding her own business and posing for a vacation picture at a Japanese burial ground, this little Canadian girl appears to have awoken what some think is the spirit of a dismembered Samurai warrior. The dad who took the photo, which was then posted to Reddit by his friend, claims that no one else was around he snapped the photo—or, so he thought. rebelcircus.com 3. GEORGE WASHINGTON "GHOST" RANDOMLY SHOWS UP IN HOME According to one Imgur user, the ghost of our first president appears to have recently shown up on a bedroom wall. "Didn't believe my girlfriend when she said she saw a face on the wall," Imgur user Mahurtma wrote on the post. "Then I took a picture of it." Some Imgur commenters think it's the spirit of Albert Einstein, while others are sure it's definitely George Washington. Either way, those are two pretty cool ghosts to be haunted by, right? refinery29.com 4. "SPIRIT OF A FAMED CROSS-DRESSER" PHOTOBOMBED THIS COUPLE'S RESTAURANT SELFIE When Ian Wrin and April Russ stopped by Tujague's, New Orleans' second oldest restaurant, they were shocked to discover that a ghost had been hovering behind them in one of their selfies. Poppy Tooke, the radio host of Louisiana Eats, explained that the "ghost" was Julian, a famous actor of the silent film-era, who once starred alongside Rudolph Valentino in Aisle of Love. In addition to being quite the thespian, Julian, a cross-dresser whose alter ego was Vesta Tilley, had his own makeup line and his picture had been hanging on the restaurant's wall since 1917...until two years ago when it was relegated to the attic. Not so pleased with the move, Julian has apparently been haunting the restaurant ever since. dailymail.co.uk 5. CLAUDE MONET "GHOST" VISITS HIS OWN SPECIAL EXHIBIT Just as the Cleveland Museum of Art was preparing for the special Monet exhibit Painting The Modern Garden: From Monet to Matisse, the museum's director of architecture and design snapped this spooky photo of a mysterious figure looking down on the gallery. The "ghost" had an uncanny resemblance to the French Impressionist painter himself, and Kelly Notaro, communications associate for the museum told TODAY that "this snapshot taken by a staff member is not retouched or photoshopped, and we've heard from others that they've seen the man." Talk about a unique way to launch an exhibit. today.com 6. OLD-SCHOOL PHOTO FEATURES "GIRL GHOST" When Anastassia was flipping through an old family album, she stumbled across a photo of herself playing with her pet birds when she was four years old. In the background was another girl holding what looks to be a stuffed animal. But the crazy part is, Anastassia says there was no other little girl there when the picture was taken—well, not living at least. Her parents also confirmed that they had never seen that child before. And as if this story wasn't creepy enough already, Anastassia allegedly was later told by a psychic, without being prompted, that the "spirit" of a young girl was following her. express.co.uk 7. SCHOOL GIRLS SPOOKED BY "SPIRIT" FOLLOWING HER AROUND AN OLD ENGLISH PALACE Grey Lady, a servant to four Tudor monarchs at London's Hampton Court, has been dead for over 450 years. Still, many claims that the Hampton Court grounds are haunted by her spirit, including 12-year-old Holly Hampsheir, who took this photo of her cousin Brooke McGee while touring the palace. The tall figure looking over Brooke's shoulder in the middle of the room, they say, is Grey Lady herself. Sure, it could've been Photoshop, but, regardless, we're officially creeped out by this picture, aren't you? express.co.uk 8. "GHOST" LOOKS OUT WINDOW OF OLD SOUTHERN CABIN Speaking of ghosts and tourist attractions, another haunted "spirit" of a woman was spotted in an Acadian Village cabin in Louisiana earlier this year. We're not really sure what the backstory is on this one, but we do know that the attraction is dedicated to Cajun history in the 1800s. So, based on that, we're guessing the "ghost" might've been a basket weaver or corn shucker back in the day. doreensullivan.com 9. SWIMMING FAMILY PHOTOBOMBED BY GHOST GIRL WHO DROWNED IN THE RIVER Lakes are already lurking with scary things, like catfish and smelly algae. But when Kim Davidson was splashing around with her and her pal's three kids in a lake, they never thought in a million years that they would come in contact with something this creepy. After the photo was taken, Kim immediately consulted paranormal experts to find out who the extra kid in the picture was. The experts believe it to be the ghost of a girl named Doreen O'Sullivan, who drowned in that very spot in 1913. Don't know about you, but we'll be swimming in pools from now on. anomalyinfo.com 10. "GHOST" RUINS AN ADORABLE FAMILY PHOTO OPP Nurul Islam, 37, was enjoying the afternoon with his niece, Mayrian Islam,11, and nephew, Ryhan Kaliq, 9, and snapping pictures in front of a fake Victorian-style ruin when suddenly a "ghost" appeared out of nowhere. At first, Nurul didn't think it could possibly be an apparition. But, then again, he also says he made sure all the other tourists were out of the way before he snapped this shot. dailymail.co.uk 11. A "GHOST" ALLEGEDLY CRASHED THIS COUPLE'S WEDDING Whether it was the flower arrangements or the music that set him off, one unhappy "ghost" made sure that the bride and groom knew he wasn't having it. As you can see from one Reddit user's selfie, there appears to be a rather displeased face lurking in the background of what is an otherwise adorable memento. Grimacing ghost or not, one thing is for sure: the photobomber certainly did not receive a wedding invitation. Imgur 12. A COUPLE'S FIRST DANCE IS RUINED BY LITTLE GIRL "SPIRIT" This photo, collected by Toowoomba Ghost Chasers, was apparently taken just as this newlywed couple was having their first dance together. Judging by the picture, it looks like one little girl "ghost" was eager to join in on the fun and is relatively harmless. But, of course, ya never know. diply.com Credits: redbookmag.com Is these creepy? love this list? Let us know in comments.
