A Child Ghost?

Re: A Child Ghost?

  • I mean... I see as much definition in the little background girl as I do the little foreground girl, so... 


    BUT. I'm also weirdly superstitious. Like, I don't really believe in hauntings or ghosts, but a week ago when I was looking at houses in a rural county we could be moving to sometime in the nebulous future (read: for fun because I was bored) I shied away from the older houses. I don't even have a good reason to shy away from older houses, because I like houses with character, and I've got no problem doing extensive renos (cosmetic or structural) so long as the wiring/plumbing is safe and we have a bed to sleep in and a working stove.

    So I think *my* perception of definition there is based largely on the fact that I don't think it's impossible for there to actually be a ghost there.
    FI's parents live in a house that was built in the 1800s that they've totally restored and it is beautiful. Amazing. 

    Recently I found out that the room FI and I always sleep in when we visit was where they used to put dead bodies on display. Cuz it used to be a funeral home for a while in the 1900s. I sleep where dead bodies went. 
    Okay. Call me superstitious, but no fucking way in a million years would I ever be able to sleep in that room. Or in that house. My god, Novella, didn't you see A Haunting in Connecticut?  You just know where this is going to end! SCARY, that's where!  

    Okay, you have to have some good scary stories for us, now.

    (I so love a good scary ghost story.)

    lol from their house, no. Really! It's a really cozy, peaceful, happy house. 

    From my parents house, yes. Like the sounds of little girls crying in the dark from downstairs when only 2 of us are home and we're both upstairs. Shit like that. 


    I Also used to live in a former funeral home, and it didn't bother me at all. But I also dont believe in ghosts and whatnot at all.
  • Sorry but this part made me roll my eyes so hard: 

    "When Anastassia later asked her parents about the photo, which was taken in their home, they said they'd never seen the child before and confirmed that she was definitely a ghost."

    Oh really, you're confirming that? Well I just confirmed that I'm definitely Beyonce. 

    It's definitely a creepy image, but I'd look for other explanations well before I started screaming and crying. For example, a double exposure. We have tons of photos from when I was a kid with weird double exposure stuff going on, cuz developing film is any easy thing to mess up. And that's just one of a million possibilities. Or maybe I've been followed my entire life by various roving ghosts, in which case how do I train them to make me a cocktail? 

    I'm picturing her parents doing a sarcastic confirmation. Accompanied by eye rolls and such. "Yeah, sure honey, that's a ghost with you. Mhmm"

    Anniversary
  • I don't believe in ghosts, but that doesn't look like a poster to me. I think it's pretty freaky.
