Engineer Fred Leuchter was hired by the state of Tennessee to evaluate, modify and update its electric chair, which is used for executions. The heavy oak chair was made from the wood that was once a part of the state's old gallows. Leuchter offered his services to modify the old equipment to make the chair both more effective and more humane. The state of Tennessee sent the chair to Leuchter's home, where he intended to work on it in his basement workshop. He took several photos of the chair before he started work to document his progress. This is one of the photos. When the photo was developed, Leuchter noticed several anomalies. Apart from the orb-like shapes, a few ghostly images can be seen. The orbs can most likely be attributed to the overhead light source reflecting on the camera lens. And the "face" on the back of the chair (enlarged on the top of the photo above) could just be interesting pareidolia. A little harder to explain, perhaps, is the ghostly hand image at the end of the right-hand armrest of the chair (enlarged on the bottom of the photo above). This, too, could be pareidolia, but its resemblance to a limp hand exactly in the place where an executed man's hand would be is striking. Could it be the ghost of an executed man? Leuchter points out that the chair and its occupants were subjected to strong electromagnetic forces. Could they have imprinted it with these haunting images? . . . . www.deadlive.co.uk #deadlive #deadliveevents #psychicreadings #ghosthunts #hauntedvenues #ghosthunting #spookynights #psychicevents #ghosthuntingequipment #psychicnights #hauntedhouse #hauntedinn #hauntedpubs #hauntednights #northwestghosthunts #hauntedcastles #hauntedhalls #ghostscaughtoncamera #spookyevents #hauntedengland #liverpoolghosthunts #tarotreaders #mediumship https://www.instagram.com/p/CLFc0MjFwD_/?igshid=16zhzek0nkwvq

This amazing photo was taken by photographer and graphic designer Neil Sandbach in 2008. Neil was photographing some scenic shots at a farm Hertfordshire, England, as part of a project for wedding stationery; the couple planned to have their wedding ceremony held there. Later, Neil was astonished when he examined the digital photo on his computer. There, as if peeking around a corner at him, is a ghostly, white, almost glowing figure of what looks like a child. Neil says he is quite sure there was no one there at the time. There is further corroboration that this is a true ghost photo. Neil had shown the couple the anomalous photo, and before the wedding they asked the staff at the farm if they had ever had any spooky experiences there. They did not mention Neil's photo. Indeed, they admitted that the figure of a young boy, dressed in white night clothes, had been seen on several occasions around the barn. Apparently, this is the ghost that Neil photographed. . . . . www.deadlive.co.uk #deadlive #deadliveevents #psychicreadings #ghosthunts #hauntedvenues #ghosthunting #spookynights #psychicevents #ghosthuntingequipment #psychicnights #hauntedhouse #hauntedinn #hauntedpubs #hauntednights #northwestghosthunts #hauntedcastles #hauntedhalls #ghostscaughtoncamera #spookyevents #hauntedengland #liverpoolghosthunts #tarotreaders #mediumship https://www.instagram.com/p/CLFHSVdFNko/?igshid=q4i0ao2l1smq

This photo was taken at Corroboree Rock at Alice Springs, Northern Territory, Australia in 1959. What does not seem to be a trick of light and shadow is a human form, semi-transparent, wearing what looks like a long white dress or gown. More curious, the figure seems to be holding something in the manner that a person holds a camera or binoculars. One possibility is that this is a double exposure of a living person. In 1959, this image would have been captured on film. If it is not a double exposure and this is a spirit captured on film, then a number of questions arise: What is the entity looking and why? Do they have cameras and binoculars in the afterlife? Or is this an instance of a time slip in which the camera has recorded a scene from a different time? It has even been speculated that this figure might actually be a time traveler or interdimensional being, who has been photographed in the act of watching us! . . . . www.deadlive.co.uk #deadlive #deadliveevents #psychicreadings #ghosthunts #hauntedvenues #ghosthunting #spookynights #psychicevents #ghosthuntingequipment #psychicnights #hauntedhouse #hauntedinn #hauntedpubs #hauntednights #northwestghosthunts #hauntedcastles #hauntedhalls #ghostscaughtoncamera #spookyevents #hauntedengland #liverpoolghosthunts #tarotreaders #mediumship https://www.instagram.com/p/CLC6P2bF7Aq/?igshid=1pt2ylf9rz3j9

This photo was taken on Nov. 16, 1968, when Robert A. Ferguson, author of "Psychic Telemetry: New Key to Health, Wealth, and Perfect Living," was giving a speech at a Spiritualist convention in Los Angeles, California. Faintly appearing next to Ferguson is a figure that he later identified as his brother, Walter, who died in 1944 during World War II. At first glance, this might seem to be a double exposure or some kind of darkroom trickery, but this photo is a Polaroid (one of several taken of Ferguson at the time), making any kind of hoaxing quite unlikely. . . . . www.deadlive.co.uk #deadlive #deadliveevents #psychicreadings #ghosthunts #hauntedvenues #ghosthunting #spookynights #psychicevents #ghosthuntingequipment #psychicnights #hauntedhouse #hauntedinn #hauntedpubs #hauntednights #northwestghosthunts #hauntedcastles #hauntedhalls #ghostscaughtoncamera #spookyevents #hauntedengland #liverpoolghosthunts #tarotreaders #mediumship https://www.instagram.com/p/CK9tU9kFtmZ/?igshid=1uia786mc1vhe

A strange legend surrounds a railroad crossing just south of San Antonio, Texas. The intersection of roadway and railroad track, so the story goes, was the site of a tragic accident in which several school-aged children were killed - but their ghosts linger at the spot and will push idled cars across the tracks, even though the path is uphill. The story may be just the stuff of urban legend, but the accounts were intriguing enough that an article about the phenomenon, "The Haunted Railroad Crossing," was written. The article included a photograph submitted by Andy and Debi Chesney. Their daughter and some of her friends had recently been to the crossing to test the legend, and she took some photographs. Inexplicably, a strange, transparent figure turned up in one of the photos. "They had no idea that it was in the picture until the next day when I printed out the picture and showed them," said the Chesneys. "It was really freaky. It appears to be a little girl carrying a teddy bear." Other readers who have viewed the photo think it shows a little girl with a dog sitting at her feet. What do you think? . . . . www.deadlive.co.uk #deadlive #deadliveevents #psychicreadings #ghosthunts #hauntedvenues #ghosthunting #spookynights #psychicevents #ghosthuntingequipment #psychicnights #hauntedhouse #hauntedinn #hauntedpubs #hauntednights #northwestghosthunts #hauntedcastles #hauntedhalls #ghostscaughtoncamera #spookyevents #hauntedengland #liverpoolghosthunts #tarotreaders #mediumship https://www.instagram.com/p/CK7H_pNlUQp/?igshid=1ksjb9nl58bfh

Terry Ike Clanton is an actor, recording artist and cowboy poet, and is also a relative of the legendary Clanton Gang who clashed with the Earps and Doc Holliday at the famous gunfight at OK Corral. Clanton took this photo of his friend at Boothill Graveyard. The photo was taken in black and white because he wanted Old West-looking pictures of himself dressed in Clanton's 1880-period clothes. Clanton took the film for developing to the local Thrifty Drug Store, and when he got it back was startled at what he saw. Among the gravestones, just to the right of his friend, is the image of what appears to be a thin man in a dark hat. By height, the man appears to be either legless, kneeling... or rising up out of the ground. . . . . www.deadlive.co.uk #deadlive #deadliveevents #psychicreadings #ghosthunts #hauntedvenues #ghosthunting #spookynights #psychicevents #ghosthuntingequipment #psychicnights #hauntedhouse #hauntedinn #hauntedpubs #hauntednights #northwestghosthunts #hauntedcastles #hauntedhalls #ghostscaughtoncamera #spookyevents #hauntedengland #liverpoolghosthunts #tarotreaders #mediumship https://www.instagram.com/p/CK7HkVrFPNm/?igshid=19zyc232ckj2m

When examining photos for possible paranormal elements, we have to be very careful and skeptical. Just because you didn't see something in the viewfinder that later appears in your photo does not mean it's a ghost. Stray light, reflections, dust, hair, and insects can all cause photo anomalies. And with digital photography so commonplace, it's easy to create a fake paranormal photo with software like Adobe Photoshop. . . . . www.deadlive.co.uk #deadlive #deadliveevents #psychicreadings #ghosthunts #hauntedvenues #ghosthunting #spookynights #psychicevents #ghosthuntingequipment #psychicnights #hauntedhouse #hauntedinn #hauntedpubs #hauntednights #northwestghosthunts #hauntedcastles #hauntedhalls #ghostscaughtoncamera #spookyevents #hauntedengland #liverpoolghosthunts #tarotreaders #mediumship https://www.instagram.com/p/CK3lSgbFrWT/?igshid=yzbf6468to6h

Sightings of the Virgin Mary are woven into the very fabric of Christianity and people have reported seeing her image since the faith's earliest years. This image of the Virgin Mary was taken in 1968, when the Virgin appeared atop a Coptic Orthodox Church of St. Mary in the town of Zeitoun, Egypt. The apparition appeared repeatedly over the next three years and was even broadcast on Egyptian television. . . . . www.deadlive.co.uk #deadlive #deadliveevents #psychicreadings #ghosthunts #hauntedvenues #ghosthunting #spookynights #psychicevents #ghosthuntingequipment #psychicnights #hauntedhouse #hauntedinn #hauntedpubs #hauntednights #northwestghosthunts #hauntedcastles #hauntedhalls #ghostscaughtoncamera #spookyevents #hauntedengland #liverpoolghosthunts #tarotreaders #mediumship https://www.instagram.com/p/CK3lMs3lgTm/?igshid=1go2swxzpi1k2

In 2002, Oklahoma City resident Tracy Martin died from injuries suffered in a motor vehicle accident. Eighteen days after her death, a staff member at Puckett’s Wrecker Services saw a transparent white figure floating on the business’s security monitor. The folks at Puckett’s say the figure was Tracy searching for her red truck, which the business had recently moved. Critics say the image is nothing more than a bug or a hoax completed by dangling a doll on a string.

Deadly Rival Roller Derby Team Plagued. Between practice and bouts, the fierce members of Florida’s Deadly Rival Roller Derby put in a lot of hours at the community skating rink. The derby girls are familiar with every nook and cranny of the building, so they’re quick to notice when something’s amiss. In this case, a ghost. It was the bathroom light that first got the girls’ attention. The light just can’t seem to stay off, despite the team’s best efforts to conserve electricity. Coach Carb-Orator turned off the light just before locking up one evening, but it somehow switched back on. The coach scolded a team member for failing to switch off the light after using the restroom, but the woman insisted she’d turned it off. On another occasion, the coach’s daughter heard voices coming from the bathroom even though no one was near the facilities. However, the bathroom isn’t the rink’s only paranormal hot spot. A team-mate named Murder Ride heard unexplained sounds coming from the office, while Carb-Orator felt spooked in the rental room. “I had an eerie feeling I was being watched,” she said of the room. “It freaked me out enough to speed walk to the door. Most times I don’t feel anything and I feel completely comfortable and at ease, but this was weird. I felt like someone was there watching me.” Mysterious cold spots also plague the rink, and a creepy black shadow appeared in the photo posted above. One derby girl wondered if the strange presence is behind the team’s surprisingly high injury rate: three broken legs in just a few weeks. None of the derby team girls knew why the skating rink might be haunted so I did a quick Google search and discovered that a young man named Jarred, a frequent patron of the rink, died after being hit by a car. Could he be responsible for the building’s strange events? . . . . www.deadlive.co.uk #deadlive #deadliveevents #psychicreadings #ghosthunts #hauntedvenues #ghosthunting #spookynights #psychicevents #ghosthuntingequipment #psychicnights #hauntedhouse #hauntedinn #hauntedpubs #hauntednights #northwestghosthunts #hauntedcastles #hauntedhalls #ghostscaughtoncamera #spookyevents #hauntedengland #liverpoolghosthunts #tarotre https://www.instagram.com/p/CK1whiAFHn4/?igshid=1guhf8bedsx8d

United Verde/Phelps Dodge Mine and the old employees that still haunt the place. Once upon a time, mining jobs were both lucrative and extremely dangerous. While death rarely occurred inside the mine, it wasn’t uncommon for miners to die from injuries sustained during the job. These usually occur in jobs associated with explosions but any injury that involved something like leg amputation would probably result in death a few months later after infections invaded the body. According to some people, miners still haunt their old work place, including the spirit of Headless Charlie. You can probably guess that Charlie lost a certain body part during a mining accident and a tale is told that he wanders the old mine in search of it. The mine is currently closed and off-limits, so you’re unlikely to run into him but if you somehow find yourself near an abandoned mine shaft, definitely don’t enter. . . . . www.deadlive.co.uk #deadlive #deadliveevents #psychicreadings #ghosthunts #hauntedvenues #ghosthunting #spookynights #psychicevents #ghosthuntingequipment #psychicnights #hauntedhouse #hauntedinn #hauntedpubs #hauntednights #northwestghosthunts #hauntedcastles #hauntedhalls #ghostscaughtoncamera #spookyevents #hauntedengland #liverpoolghosthunts #tarotreaders #mediumship https://www.instagram.com/p/CKpK9YVl5XJ/?igshid=1gn6hlryc90gj

Ghosts of Husbands Alley. At one point in time, prostitutes could be found throughout Jerome, when brothels were located right next to saloons and women could walk throughout the town to “advertise” their business. Eventually, these businesses were re-located in the streets behind Main and these became known as the old Cribs District or “Husband’s Alley.” These businesses were located right behind the saloons, where men could get a few drinks, gamble, then sneak right out the back door for another kind of entertainment. Sex work operated on a hierarchical scale. At the high end of the scale were classy ladies who worked in brothels operated by madams who had a pretty cushy job. They often only provided (expensive) companionship for lonely men living in a town almost devoid of women, and had access to healthcare, security, and education. At the low end of the scale were women working in the cribs, who somehow managed to see 30 to 80 clients per day. It was a rough job that had no guarantees or safety and many women who worked in the industry succumbed to the illnesses or violence associated with the job. There are many stories about the horrors these sex workers endured and history just barely remembers a few who died at the hands of their clients. One woman, named Sammie Dean, died after being strangled in 1931 by the son of a powerful member of town. She is said to haunt the building she previously lived in and there’s no doubt that the spirits of other women who died from similar fates still linger in the area. . . . . www.deadlive.co.uk #deadlive #deadliveevents #psychicreadings #ghosthunts #hauntedvenues #ghosthunting #spookynights #psychicevents #ghosthuntingequipment #psychicnights #hauntedhouse #hauntedinn #hauntedpubs #hauntednights #northwestghosthunts #hauntedcastles #hauntedhalls #ghostscaughtoncamera #spookyevents #hauntedengland #liverpoolghosthunts #tarotreaders #mediumship https://www.instagram.com/p/CKmhuGTlDTn/?igshid=1234bci3u71qs

The Spooky Abandoned North Brother Island, New York North Brother Island, located in between Queens and the Bronx in New York, has a long and fascinating history. The entire island has now been abandoned for nearly 50 years. A morbid past In the 1880s, the island was used to build a hospital complex to quarantine and treat people suffering from smallpox and typhoid fever. This hospital was home to the infamous “Typhoid Mary”. She was forcibly isolated twice by public health authorities after infecting 51 people with typhoid, three of whom died, over the course of her career as a cook. She spent nearly three decades in isolation on North Brother Island until her own death. The hospital was later turned into housing for World War II veterans attending school on the GI Bill. In the 1950s, the island was home to one of the first juvenile drug rehabilitation centers in history. It remained in operation until the island was abandoned in 1963. They tried to sell the island to private investors in the 1970s but the cost of construction, transportation to the island, and the noise from Laguardia airport discouraged anyone from buying it. https://coolinterestingstuff.com/the-spooky-abandoned-north-brother-island-new-york . . . . www.deadlive.co.uk #deadlive #deadliveevents #psychicreadings #ghosthunts #hauntedvenues #ghosthunting #spookynights #psychicevents #ghosthuntingequipment #psychicnights #hauntedhouse #hauntedinn #hauntedpubs #hauntednights #northwestghosthunts #hauntedcastles #hauntedhalls #ghostscaughtoncamera #spookyevents #hauntedengland #liverpoolghosthunts #tarotreaders #mediumship https://www.instagram.com/p/CKj84rilAtB/?igshid=14xez8klbpa4i

The strange but true case of the real Dr. Hyde, poisoner. Most people are familiar with the basic plot of Robert Louis Stevenson’s The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. Few people realize, however, that there was a real life Dr. Hyde who also mixed dangerous chemicals and changed from being a well-respected member of society into a notorious villain. In 1905, Dr. Bennett Clark Hyde – a prominent doctor in Kansas City, Mo. – eloped with Frances Swope, a niece of local millionaire Col. Thomas Swope. The Swope family was strongly opposed to the marriage, believing that Hyde only wanted to marry into money. Frances’ father, Logan Swope, had died in 1900, leaving a widow and seven children behind. Col. Swope had no children of his own, so he moved into the Logan Swope residence in Independence, Mo., and set aside money to be paid to the seven children upon his death. His will also established another fund to be split among all surviving relatives equally, but he was thinking of giving the money to charity instead. These intentions were well known to all members of the family. https://coolinterestingstuff.com/the-strange-but-true-case-of-dr-hyde-poisoner . . . . www.deadlive.co.uk #deadlive #deadliveevents #psychicreadings #ghosthunts #hauntedvenues #ghosthunting #spookynights #psychicevents #ghosthuntingequipment #psychicnights #hauntedhouse #hauntedinn #hauntedpubs #hauntednights #northwestghosthunts #hauntedcastles #hauntedhalls #ghostscaughtoncamera #spookyevents #hauntedengland #liverpoolghosthunts #tarotreaders #mediumship https://www.instagram.com/p/CKjoo6hlkZJ/?igshid=xdcav46ufw9o
