The Closest Catch To Something Truly Paranormal???
The Closest Catch To Something truly Paranormal???
Its rare that i am WOWED.. and I must admit i love this footage, whether it is a ghost, spirit or not.. it defiantly caught my attention. Here is the STORY!
The team was contacted by: Micky Fitzpatrick who asked if he could send us a video for us to look at for explanations, he went onto say within his opinion “its the best footage of a spirit I’ve ever seen in my life”
“Actual CCTV footage and this came after his upstairs neighbour told him of knocking at his window there’s is 4 separate incidents caught on footage and on each one the spirit is moving freely and heading for his neighbours window and then proceeds to go over the fence and change direction..”
“there is more footage also where it stops still and changes its direction I personally love the one where it goes up the wall we would love to hear what you think”
“we know who the ghost is it’s my grandad Allan who passed last year I’ve just been to the location his old house where my uncle now lives and watched all the footage and I’m honestly speechless hope you feel that this is really something special”
LEES REPLY AND VIEWS…
When it comes to videos the most common we receive are orbs, and sounds, maybe the odd shadow, this video is very interesting to me.. at first glance when watching the footage, i thought this looks to be stream coming from the houses.. at face value what we see is a mist like object, which is white, which is moving around something of which i have seen before but then it stops in its tracks and wow… its interesting. i cant personally begin to throw an explanation because i first through stream simply travelling.. but this “steam like object” just stops still and then Carry’s on moving. also i like how its recorded from the CCTV system most you tube videos out there are hard to identify “from china”. i replied back with my views and simply said i cant explane why it would stop still and thanked micky for sharing.
MICKY REPLY.
“my uncle lives in a ground floor flat his neighbour upstairs alerted him the next day that he heard his windows being hit by stones or knocking sound at around 12-1 at night, So with my uncle being keen to investigate for possible criminal damage occurring, he stumbled across this at the exact time on one of the clips the spirit or whatever it is heads for his neighbours bedroom window, and to completly stop the steam claim, there is extra footage of this and in one the matter comes in from the right hand side and goes up the wall or through the wall, where my uncle lives is his passed fathers house, and he passed last year… The spirit is a big mass and my passed grandad was a big bloke, also the neighbour has told of weird noise from within and also my uncles has had doors wedged shut from the other side and also slammed on his finger, it’s all very, very strange and this footage is amazing”
“And yes that is the straight footage from his cctv program no editing involved it’s the original footage, we are genuinely in disbelief”
“this happens over a series of two nights, different angles, and travelling different directions, you can also say a man from Newcastle has captured. The footage, his name is Jimmy 🙂, we would also like to mention the most important factor and that is how the video was found as it ties in perfectly and hence how were so blown away by this footage,.. so the neighbour complained of stones being thrown or a knocking sound on his window at around 12-2 in the morning, fearing possible criminal damage the cameras were looked through, when I send you all the footage if you could include the first part of the video or the first clip as when the matter/spirit moves in front of the camera and then proceeds up the wall to the neighbours window”
Micky and his uncle would love your feedback.
all rights of video are strictly limited to my uncle and micky, feel free to share this post.
Charlene Lowe Kemp – Beliver- After this footage was posted, some suggested that this may be a bug on the lens of the camera within, I can see why people may think this has a logical approach, I have to argue against this explanation though, this appears to float like a substance, it appears to be some kind of fog if anything, I have looked at numerous footage of bugs on a lens of a CCTV camera and I cant find anything that looks remotely similar, if you have any evidence to back this up please send it in order to debunk. I have looked in numerous forums also, regarding camera mites, each person who has had camera mites have stated that these appear to crawl across the screen and legs can be seen.
I have posted some of these forums to have a look what people have said to make your minds up for yourself.
https://www.dpreview.com/forums/post/54137172
Here is also an example of many I have looked through, which shows how bugs look like on camera…
if I was to debunk this footage in any way it would be in support of this article below and to say that the illumination has caused a reflective effect on the image, from maybe a porch light? a neighbour entering in or out the house? therefore if the neighbour was hearing sounds like stones being thrown, maybe they did go outside to check a few times? This is common in the cheaper night vision cameras available on the market…. The below article is interesting and some explain the same floating phenomenon. This doesn’t explain why it stops and starts again though and without seeing the surrounding area it is hard to tell if this is truly paranormal or just a IR reflection.

Ouija boards . A harmless board game or a direct line to the spirits?
When we think of Ouija boards we think of Hollywood movies and ghosts surrounding a circular table in a dark room filled with white candles. The Ouija board was originally marketed as a mystical oracle and as a family entertainment game were it first came about in 1886. The press spread word of this then soon after the talking board started being marketed . The creators of the board found the name Ouija through the board itself when they asked the talking board what they should call the game it then spelt out Ouija , they then asked what this meant the planchette then slid down to good luck. Ouija is supposedly an ancient Egyptian word meaning ” good luck”.
Many people believe the board can help contact spirits from loved ones and the deceased ,but just as many people who believe their is also non believers who think its nothing more than a board game . Who is right ? Do Ouija boards really open portals for any type of spirit to come through whether good or bad ,or is it simply a game where people use it to scare others. Many famous hauntings have allegedly happened because of Ouija boards including the ” Enfield haunting ” where 2 young girls played with the talking board then started experiencing paranormal activity. Did the board really cause this or where they just young kids making up a story to add to the fuel of the media frenzy? When i ask people about the board game most people have played with it before and all have suggested things have happened due to playing with it such as broken mirrors, glasses flying across the room and footsteps when no one else is in the room. A lot of people also say that they’ve played with the board and absolutely nothing has happened at all .
The Einfield haunting 1977
There are so many rules to be used if you want to play the game properly such as always saying goodbye , never taking your fingers off the planchette and having an open mind. It’s been suggested people can actually move the planchette without realising and you never really know if someone could be pushing it or not. If you search on YouTube their are many videos of people using the board but again their is nothing to say if it isn’t a trick or not . Either way i guess some could call it entertainment , we’re always intrigued by the unknown. Maybe some people wish so much for it to work that it actually does or just maybe it really does contact the spirits. I’ve never used one myself because i wouldn’t want to chance it ,you wouldn’t leave your door open in a city so why leave a door open for spirits ? If you are going to play the board always do it with someone who knows what their doing and never do it in your own home. It may not be real but theirs nothing wrong with staying on the safe side ,right ? Even people who don’t necessarily believe in spirits will refuse to do it as you don’t know what you’re allowing into your space. Some people believe only certain specific made Ouija boards can work and that “mass produced ” ones don’t work because of the materials their made from. A planchette moving on a Ouija board can sometimes be explained by simple science such as the ideomotor effect which is a way for your body to ” talk itself “. This is an unconscious movement were your brain can move things with the muscles in your arms and hands. Your mind can create stories making you believe this is actually happening. If you want the board to work in your mind then it will usually work. Let me know your Ouija board experiences , have you ever played yourself ? Would you ever play one and if not ,why ? Whatever you decide to do just make sure you play by the rules !
12 Creepy Ghost Photos…Not Yet Proven to be Faked!
Charlene Lowe Kemp
When it comes to a ‘real picture’ of a what could be a ghost, there are thousands of fakes…’Ghost Photos’ is always a hot topic in the paranormal field, where people’s opinions on weather it is genuine or a fake and how it may be fake is always a hot topic for a discussion…
So I thought I would have a look for a few ‘GHOST photos’ that have not bean proven to be Faked even though some people may offer alternative view on what it may be, a logic approach but….it hasn’t been proven to have any editing done to make it a hoax photo….
THE GHOST BABY
This photo looks to good to be true but it had not yet been proven to be a fake!
This was lady By a Austrilian mother who was photographing her daughter’s grave. The interesting factor in this is that the mother states that her daughter was not a baby at the time of her passing and the mother said that she did not regonise the baby in the photo playing on her daughter’s grave. It is believed this could be the ghost of a baby that is buried nearby.
THE GHOSTLY HAND
This photo does not show a ghost, but does show a transparent hand on the top of a bureau. The photo was taken by a Montague Cooper roughly a century ago. He claimed to have no knowledge of how the hand got there.
LORD COMBERMERE
Lord Combermere, once governor of Barbados and curious party in the case of the chase vault mystery, appears to be relaxing in a chair after his death. The photo was taken by Sybell Corner and was taken in the library of Combermere Abbey in 1891.
FREDDY JACKSON
In 1919, this photograph was taken of a squadron of R.A.F. pilots. Behind one of the men, a face appears to the right, not wearing the uniform cap, appears transparent and stood very close to the man in front. The squadron identified the strange face as that of Freddy Jackson, who had died two days previous to this picture being taken.
THE BROWN LADY OF RAYNHAM HALL
The 1936 Brown Lady of Raynham Hall photo is properly one of the most famous ghost pictures in history. The story is that the believed ghost in this picture is to be of Lady Raynham, who was allegedly imprisoned in the hall by her husband for a long period of her adult life. There are many stories and sightings but this picture is always the centre point of the story.
TULIP STAIRCASE GHOST
The Tulip staircase ghost photo was taken in 1966 at the Greenwich National Maritime Musuem by Reverend Ralph Hardy. It appears to show a person struggling to get up the stairs with both hands pulling the railing. How the hands are positioned is very strange. They appear to be two left hands and the top one is longer.
SPECTER/ MONK OF NEWBY ABBEY
Taken in Newby Church by Reverend Lord at NEWBY Church in North Yorkshire, England. The specter looks like a ghost of the murderer from the scream films and to add to the scare factor the photo has been analysed and it was found that whatever or whoever it was would have measured 9 feet tall.
THE WATCHER
Corroboree Rock in Austrilia is the location which this photo was taken in. The subject appears to look like a women holding binoculars. She is looking to the right of the photo and appears to be simply watching the wildlife.
CIVIL WAR SOLDIER
Soldiers are popular subjects within ghost photos especially civil war soldiers. This picture dares back to the civil war and appears to look like a ghost of a soldier walking a set of stairs.
BACK SEAT DRIVER
In 1959 Mable Chinnery went to the cemetery to visit the grave of her mother. She took some photos of the gravesite and turned and took a picture of her husband sitting alone in the car’s passenger seat. The photo was developed and this came out….someone sitting in the backseat wearing glasses. Mrs Chinnery swore that the ‘backseat driver’ was none other than her own mother…whose grave she was stood next to when the photo was taken.
SEA GHOSTS
In 1924 James Courtney and Michael Meehan, two crewmen of the tanker S.S. Watertown, were accidentally killed by gas fumes while cleaning a cargo tank. The crew of the Watertown, on its way to the Panama Canal from New York City, buried the two sailors at sea off the Mexican coast. That was on December 4th. On December 5th the first mate reported that the faces of Courtney and Meehan were appearing in the water off the port side of the ship. Over the next several days every member of the crew witnessed the faces appear and disappear, including the ship’s captain. When he reported this to his supervisors after docking in New Orleans it was suggested that he try to photograph the faces. Captain Keith Tracy bought a camera and the ship was soon underway again. Sure enough, the faces appeared, and Tracy took six pictures, then secured the camera in the ship’s vault. The camera was not removed until it was taken to a commercial developer after docking in New York City. Five of the photos showed nothing unusual, but the sixth clearly showed what was said to be the faces of the two dead crewmen. No evidence of forgery or tampering of the film was ever discovered. The faces stopped appearing after a new crew was brought aboard the Watertown.
GHOST IN A FIRE
On November 19th, 1995, Wem Town Hall in Shropshire, England was engulfed in flames and burned to the ground. As firefighters tried to stave off the inferno a town resident, Tony O’Rahilly, took pictures from across the street using a telephoto lens on his camera. There, rather clearly in one of the photos, is what looks very much to be a small girl standing in a doorway, with the brightness of the flames behind her. No one ever remembered there being a small girl present on scene, much less in that close a proximity to the fire. The photo and the original negative were turned over to a photo expert who decided that the picture was 100% authentic: “The negative is a straightforward piece of black-and-white work and shows no sign of having been tampered with.” In 1677 a fire destroyed many of Wem’s wooden houses. The fire was said to have been caused by a 14-year old girl named Jane Churm, who had been careless with a candle. Churm died in the fire along with several others, and her ghost is said to still haunt the area.
After publishing this article it has been brought to my attention that there is a belief that this photo could have been a hoax but there is no 100% that it actually was…. Brian Lear casted doubt over it as a picture taken in 1922 appears to have a girl similar in it…to read the article relating to this please see the link below 🙂
Below article argues why they think it isn’t

I’ll leave you the reader to decide for yourself…..
Cursed & Haunted Hollywood
Hollywood. We all know it, and we all love it, whether you’ve visited, lived there, or just seen the ever expanding collection of movies to have come from such an iconic place, everyone has a connection to Hollywood, after all, you can guarantee your favourite film came from there and is either stored away in the archives or currently being produced.
Have you ever thought about the other side of this glamorous place? By this I mean, the paranormal and cursed sets, the actors who have become subjects of such stories. Not many people know or have even thought about it, but, it takes you one quick sentence into Google and you’ll find out, it’s not all glitz and glam.
Today, I’ll be talking about just two films, you may or may not have heard of these films, but it will give you an insight into what I mean when I say ‘Haunted and Cursed’. Weather you believe in the paranormal or not, it’s still worth a read, and is, at the very least, food for thought.
Firstly we will be talking about the film; Rosemary’s Baby.
Why would I think this film was cursed? Well, Let me give you the facts and you can decide for yourself. The films composer, Krzysztof Komeda sadly died due to a blood clot one year after the film was made. I know what your thinking, it’s sad to hear but it is just a sad part of life that happens. And I would tend to agree with you, but, coincidence or not, The fact that goes along side this is, a character in the film, died exactly the same way. Like I say, that may just be a bit too much of a coincidence for you, or, you may believe, either way please do read on.
Another point to look at, comes from the producer of the film William Castle.
William became deathly ill as a result of uremic poisoning after the film was made. He swore the movie was cursed after yelling ‘Rosemary, for God’s sake, drop that knife!’ while receiving treatment.
Again, you may still not believe, but this brings us on to our second film, with a bit more to go along side, so do hold your judgment until you’ve finished with this article, then, by all means, come to your own conclusions.
So, our second film, I believe to be slightly more well known, this film, as classic as it is, some people still haven’t heard of it or have seen it.
The film in question is of course, Poltergeist. I will be talking about the original, with the original actors and actresses, not the recent remake.
Now, the title says it all I might here you say, or others may think, it’s a film about a ghost, of course people will believe horror stories surround it, but, bare with me here, and just take in what I have to say and again, please, come to your own conclusion.
The thing that makes poltergeist such an interesting film to look into is that many of the cast and crew believed that there is or at least was a ‘Poltergeist Curse’.
The poltergeist curse was believed to have started due to actual human corpses being used in the film rather then the plastic molded skeletons we all know from our school science classes. Why? May you ask, why would they use REAL human skeletons? Well, in its simplest answer, it was cheaper!
One of the first people to become a victim of this curse was Will Sampson. Will played the Shaman (for those of you who have seen the film.) Will attempted an exorcism following the shooting of the film to try to be free from the curse. Sadly, less then one year later, Will died of complications from a kidney transplant.
Another sad tale to tell comes from one of the two young actresses who played one of the sisters in the film, Dominique Dunn. Dominique sadly passed just Six months after filming, strangled to death by her estranged boyfriend. Unfortunately we have a tale to tell of both of the young girls, the second comes from Heather O’Rouke this sad tale comes while filming the 3rd installment of the trilogy. Poor little Heather passed due to a septic infection due to a bowl blockage.
Now, to you readers, this may still all sound like horrible, terrible, coincidences but please, keep reading, I have a few more stories to tell and then I’ll leave it you.
Another sad loss of life from the film comes from Julien Beck. Julien died in 1985 from stomach cancer. Oliver Robbins, although not totally fatal, it was very close, poor Oliver almost lost his life to a mechanical fault on set. For those of you who have seen the film(s) I am talking about the scene where Robbie (played by Oliver) is being ‘strangled’ by a toy clown. No one knew what was happening, they just thought he was acting brilliantly until they realised he was turning blue and jumped into action.
Another story and our last for today comes from JoBeth Williams, although not fatal, it is however, enough to make you think, JoBeth would return home after filming every day to find her pictures hanging crooked, she would, of course straighten them again, but once she returned home from filming, once again, every picture, crooked.
With all that in mind what do you think? Just ghost stories fabricated over the years to make the mind wonder, or, do hauntings and curses really exist?
