Top 10 Real Ghosts Caught on Tape

In this post I'm dissecting a 40 minutes YouTube video of a recorded documentary full of ghostly encounters. Although most of these clips are old (the documentary looks like it was from the early 90s), these are some of the most convincing ghost clips on the Internet. Scroll to the bottom for the actual video.

#1: Red Liquid

I've slightly enhanced this image so you can see it better. This is a particularly eerie case in California where a woman and her two children were being haunted by an evil presence. The cameramen happened to film a strange red liquid that started oozing out of the walls and ceilings of the house. You can actually watch it happen in the video.

#2: Ghost Strangler

In this same case, the team went into the attic to investigate the poltergeist. The individual in this photo felt his necklace start to "strangle" him and in terror left the attic. This photo was taken in haste by his partner. You can see his neck was being bent and the look of terror on his face.

#3: Poltergeist Panic

In another poltergeist case, a family in Connecticut is being tormented. Although you can't tell from this photo alone, the mother is holding the chair steady so her daughter can do her homework while the spirit moves it around. Personally, I wouldn't hang around and act like nothing's wrong if my chair started moving on its own. But hey, to each their own.

#4: Ohio Horror

I've slightly enhanced this image so it's easier to see, although it's still pretty difficult to tell. However, a family in Ohio who believes they are being haunted sets up a camera at night. They catch a glass and a typewriter moving on their own. (here's how you can tell these videos are old - they have a TYPEWRITER!)

#5: Carpenter Conspiracy

I'm not going to lie, I'm having fun with the titles for these pictures at this point. Handymen are complaining that their tools are being moved around so a camera is set up to catch vandals. Instead they catch a chair shooting across the floor on its own and a shingle being torn off the wall upwards! You can sort of see the motion blur of the chair in this picture as it's moving.

#6: Musical Menace

The Australian music group Wildland goes to shoot a music video in the deserted mining town of Glen Davis in South Wales. Once the video is completed, a faceless man is apparently in the video leaning against the concrete. There was no one there while they were filming. They did finish their video in case you're curious, and the ghost can be seen around the 2:33 mark.

#7: Ghost in the Window

The incredible thing about this shot is that if it's real, it is likely the clearest shot of a ghost ever recorded. Two men investigated Greencastle, Indiana - a supposedly haunted house. After a brief investigation and suddenly feeling like they are not alone, they run out in terror. Later their pictures show this figure in several shots as well as several other creepy sightings. Unfortunately the mansion has now been destroyed and replaced by a cornfield so we will never know for sure. Aww man!

#8: Ghost Runner

 

I'm giving two versions of this photo, an unedited and an edited one because it's very hard to see from a still shot (it's easy to see in the video though). A family in Pennsylvania hears ghostly footsteps at night. When they set up a camera, they get more than they bargained for... Look for the ghostly footprint between the two shots.

#9: Ghost Orbs


If you search around the net for a while for ghost orbs you'll come across several cases. One such case is in the Black Forest in Colorado. After hearing and experiencing strange events, the residents set up cameras to see what they would capture. The pictures you see above are your answer. Some of the absolute largest, most inexplicable ghost orbs ever caught on camera.

#10: Hidden Ghost, Blurry Camera



It's long believed that children have a closer connection with the paranormal than adults. Perhaps it's because their minds are more open and not as closed off to what cannot be scientifically explained. In these cases, both of these children claimed to be able to see ghosts. All of their photos showed mysterious blurs around the images which were not present at the time the pictures were taken. Why?

#11: Ghostly Mist (Bonus!)


In one final haunted house filled with rumours of murder and suicide from the past, and at least 10 ghosts, the McPike mansion in Alton, Illinois is said to be one of the most haunted locations in North America. The team of investigators checked out the basement and found a strange mist that moved in strange ways and felt... electric. In the snapshot I've included, it almost looks as if there's some kind of shape!

That's Your Top 10 List!

Do you have the courage and the bravery to watch the VIDEO now?

Scariest Ghost Video

I've been watching so many ghost videos recently, that finding new footage is becoming harder and harder. However I did come across a video today with three new terrifying clips that I had not seen before.

What really grabbed me with this video was the warning put out by the uploader at the beginning of the clip:

WARNING: A clip in this video has (apparently) driven many viewers to insanity and suicide. DO NOT watch if you are easily scared.


Uh, wow. Okay. With a warning like that how could you NOT watch it?

I did, and here's my take on the three clips. If you don't want any spoilers, then skip reading everything below this portion until you watch the video.

Clip #1: Japanese Businessmen
The guys in this video see some strange looking woman at a restaurant who they start making fun of. Later, they see her again at the subway station where she waves at them and steps in front of a train to her death.

According to YouTube commenter "PaulyIllest":

In the first clip (I take Japanese) they were having a buisness celebration at a resteraunt and were slightly drunk. They noticed the pale woman and were making fun of her and calling her "it". Later at the station they were going to return to they're office to pick something up and left they're wives/girfriends to go home and noticed the woman again. They call her "it" once more, but when she walks off the man keeling over says he feels as if a seering pain is going through him...


Now personally, I don't think this clip is real and is probably the result of some hoaxers. Why would only these businessmen be able to see the woman? Why would no-one react to her getting hit by the train? A solid ghost that only the people with the camera happen to see? (why would they be filming in the subway anyway?)

It definitely has points on the creepy scale, but I don't think it has much on the realism.

Clip #2: The Alchemist Theater Investigation
A lone paranormal investigator goes into The Alchemist Theater in Milwaukee. I checked it out and yes, it is a real place. Almost immediately, things start to happen in this theater. Doors open and close, seats move, and stuff falls down. It definitely has quite a few moments that will startle you, especially if you're watching it intently. It certainly scared the investigator enough times!

What I really like about this is that the investigator brought two cameras with him. One he carries with him and one he sets up to watch him from a different angle. Whenever something happens he shows you what has happened from both cameras.


I might have thought the expensive camera equipment was a bit suspicious, but I also saw a comment from YouTube user, jnb4566:

LOL clip #2 was a friend of mine from Face Book, he's a small time film maker, BUT also owns a farm/property in USA with a haunted farm house & pig farm, he's also featured on My Ghost Story series telling his story.


I'll have to try to find the "My Ghost Story" clip, but for now I'm calling this one real. Spooky!

Clip #3: Haunted Hospital
This final clip is the one that has apparently driven people to insanity and suicide. Personally after seeing it, I don't see how it could do that to anyone simply from watching it, perhaps if you were there though it could be a different story... either way this was definitely the scariest of the three clips and I did feel some shivers.

It's another Asian clip but this time there are at least subtitles to read. Basically a reporter is doing an investigation of a haunted hospital. They did an interview with someone who had been in there before and dropped his camera, but was too scared to go back in and retrieve it. 

Upon their investigation they certainly find some disturbing things, including a final discovery of something so bizarre and unknown that they run out screaming. What is the mass they discover? It looks like something out of a Resident Evil movie.

Is this final clip real or fake? I did manage to find a comment by AndrewRuthven1 which gives his take on all three clips.

To the best of my knowledge the 1st one is a viral video for the new ringu/saddako movie, The third one is also a viral video for a movie or tv show. The 2nd one seems legit though.

Overall, everyone has their own opinion! If the third one is real, it is truly terrifying. Unfortunately, embedding has been disabled for this video, but here's the link so you can judge for yourself :)

Real Ghost Caught on Tape - The Haunting!

A few weeks ago I came across an interesting video when searching for "real ghost" sightings. I came across a video called "Real Ghost Caught on Tape - The Haunting Series". in the video thumbnail was a picture of a girl with a red circle around her.

Intrigued, I clicked on it to start watching. I was blown away that the video had nearly 50 million views! Not only that but there was a roughly even 50/50 split between video likes and video dislikes. Way too controversial to simply accept or dismiss, I had to watch it for myself.

I soon realized that there was currently about 35 videos in this series made and the ratio of likes over dislikes increases with each video. Here's the premise:

The video's are made by film creator Mark Apsolon. Now one thing is to be said for sure about this guy, he makes some seriously creepy films. Highly entertaining but seriously creepy. Try watching a few of them back to back starting from #1 (link is at the bottom of this post). If these were real, then this is exactly how I would like a ghost series to be documented. He doesn't explicitly state that these are fiction in his videos either, leaving a bit of controversy for his viewers. We can however thank one of our readers for providing a link that states they are in fact, made for entertainment purposes.

Either way, the way these videos are presented are very well done. We may have the creator of the next "Paranormal Activity" type of movies on our hands. Everything is built up slowly over time with events starting to get more uh "shocking" with the newer videos.

Very cool and worth checking out.


Ghost Story - Hotel Hell



Ghost's are everywhere! In my searches to find new and interesting YouTube videos about paranormal events, I came across this little gem. Now what really blew me away here was upon opening the video I saw it had "41 likes and only 2 dislikes". That to me already offers a lot of credibility in separating real from fake.

While there isn't too much along the lines here of actual video footage of paranormal stuff happening (something I really enjoy seeing on camera), there is quite a bit of recounts of events along some photos.

All in all, this is definitely worth checking out. I know 45 minutes is a little long, but even just listening to the audio while you do something else you will get quite a bit of information. Unfortunately, embedding for this video has been disabled by request - but you can click the link to watch.

Overall, between the strange voices saying things like "let me out", "he's dead" and the strange sightings of orbs flying around, well it certainly seems very peculiar.

Do you believe the hauntings taking place here are real?
