Cemetery Tour Orbs

Thanks for sharing these photos, Sonny…

I was on a historical cemetery tour, when I saw a ground crypt (with a slotted window) so like any good hunter, jammed my camera in and shot a few pics. Mostly out of curiosity. It wasn’t til a few weeks later I noticed them. The hundreds of dust spots and floaters I’ve seen was getting me down. These are the first orbs I’ve seen, where they cast light on the wall !! You will see a bricked over door with a circular window above. I shot from the opposing window. The date is right, but the time was about noon-ish. The pic. may not come, for it’s a hair over 1MB. If so enjoy. Sonny.

The Haunted Husband

Can a bad husband be blamed on ghosts in the bedroom? Consider the following submission:

Hi.

Note no orb in my room with white bedspread.

Nikki Catsouras Orbs

Nikki Catsouras was a teenager who flipped her Porsche after driving 100 mph on Halloween night. Her crash was so bad, her head was split in half. Graphic photos of her mangled corpse appeared on the Internet after her death, and her family is suing.

While my heart goes out to her family, I feel they are missing an opportunity to educate young drivers on the dangers of speeding. One look at Nikki’s corpse is probably enough to make many eager teens slow down.

What I found interesting is when I took a look at her most graphic photo, I noticed a few orbs on the bottom of the picture. There are two, directly underneath the mangled car. The spirit of Nikki? An angel of death?

You can view the photo online here – I won’t post it up here directly, as it is very graphic. I warn you – it is beyond what you could possibly imagine. Not even multiple watchings of the television series Bones can prepare you for this.

The Haunted Hotel and Saloon

Check out this excellent story on the investigation of a haunting in New Mexico from MSNBC:

ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. – The former owner of a 180-year-old adobe building hears the door of a potbellied stove opening and wood being stacked inside, but no one is there.

Mysterious whispers echo in the current owner’s ear. Things fall off shelves for no apparent reason.

These are just a few of the strange goings-on that artist Josh Bond, owner of the Old Cuchillo Bar in the southern New Mexico ghost town of the same name, has asked the West Coast Ghost and Paranormal Society to investigate on his property.

“The creepiest I had was a voice whisper in my ear,” Bond said. “When things fall in the house, I just sort of write it off.”

Christmas Orb

I really liked this photo sent in by Christina. Here’s her story:

My name’s Christina and this is a picture of my family on Christmas Eve 2008. As you can see there is an orb right in front of my Grandfather’s right knee. Am I crazy or can you see what looks like a face or almost like a rough skeleton face in the orb??? My mother is a big believer in the whole orb phenomenon and she freaked when she saw it. My grandmother passed away 5 years ago, so I’m sure that my mom is hoping that her mother was with us during that holiday moment. Just thought that I’d share. Thanks.

There is kind of a strange smiley face in the orb when you look at it closely.

Most Haunted Spooky Shorts and Photos

The Miracle Baby Ghost and Other Spooky Stories

There’s a fun little website that shares “true” and fictional ghost stories…(though it’s obvious the “true” stories, such as the one about the “naked ghosts” are also made up). This photo comes from the tale of Sariah, “the miracle child and her friends.” Supposedly a crack baby, she was rescued and now has spirits hovering around her:

I have always been able to see Spirits and Angels around her. On several occasions when I saw them, I took pictures. The Spirits in the picture I identified as my first and second husbands who passed away in our home. The third spirit I don’t know who that was. Both of the ghosts of my deceased husbands were in the exact places where they used to love to hang out. One at the corner of the counter in the kitchen and the other in the living room.

The moment my first husband died, his cows started running wild in the pasture like they did with him when he was alive. He used to run through the pasture with them and they ran around with him like pet dogs. It was as though he was running with them in the spirit. They ran around like that for about one hour. There was about 50 people in our home at the time that he died and one said look at those crazy cows and everyone watched them out of our big bay window. That year we had a drought and the moment he died my friend came running into the house and said the grass turned green on a small hill in the pasture. A week before he died he told me that he was never going to leave me and I will always protect you.

As I said…these are some tall tales.

Step-Ins on Ghost Whisperer

I finally started watching Ghost Whisperer and I love it! It’s like a haunted version of Touched by an Angel. In a recent episode, Melinda (played by Jennifer Love Hewitt) sees the ghost of her husband enter into a new body. On the show, they call this a “step-in,” where one soul replaces another soul whose time is up and has departed for the light.

I have heard of “step-ins” before, only the term I heard used was “walk-in.” A walk-in is typically considered to be a more evolved soul that takes over an adult body to complete tasks on the planet. This often happens after a traumatic event in which the old soul is unable to maintain the life force to keep the body alive. Many have speculated that self-help guru Byron Katie is a walk-in, because of her miraculous transformation during a period of deep depression and complete split with her previous personality.
