So I’ll be explaining points on ghosts in photography, ghost sightings, and ouija boards.
Ghosts on Camera:
Different types of ghosts caught on film: “Mist” = explanation: mist, or fog, breath
“Orbs” scientific explanation: Fast moving insects, dust particles
“Ghost lights/Will-o-wisps” Explanation: swamp gas/methane, aurora, reflections, animals eyes in the dark.
“Shadows” Explanation: Camera strap in front of the lens,
“Apparitions” - Explanation: Double exposure, normal things far away that happen to look scary in the dark, film processing errors.
There are several explanations for why people see ghostly figures. for example, When Swiss scientists electrically stimulated an epileptic patient’s brain,things got really spooky. The patient reported a shadow person sitting behind her, copying her every move. When she sat up, it also sat up. When she bent forward and grabbed her knees, it reached around her body and held her. The doctors then told her to read a card, but the shadow person tried to take it out of her hand.
What happened was the scientists had stimulated the left temporoparietal junction, the part of the brain that defines the idea of self. By interfering with the area that helps us tell the difference between ourselves and others, the doctors screwed up the brain’s ability to understand its own body, thus leading to the creation of a copycat shadow person. Researchers are hoping this is the key to understanding why so many people, both schizophrenic and healthy, encounter shadow beings and other creatures like ghosts
“Ghost” sightings may be caused by infrasound. This was discovered when Vic Tandy, a researcher, thought he saw a ghost by his desk. He later discovered theorized it was caused by infrasound, caused by his fan, that was the same resonant frequency as human eyeballs. Essentially, his eyeballs were vibrating and causing him to see things. Infrasound can also cause a feeling of “unease”, which would explain the feeling people
