VICKI'S INTRODUCTION:All photos on this page are Copyrighted by Vicki S. (Vivian)These two photographs were taken on Halloween Day 1998 at about 5:30 pm. There was no sun glare nor were any lights on, it was dusky. I wanted a picture of the girl in her costume for her mother. I told her to sit on the picnic table outside my parents house so we could have a good shot before we went Trick or Treating. The photos were taken several seconds apart with a Cannon Z135 zoom lens camera with Kodak Max 800 speed film. We've taken photos in this area of the yard for 20 some years and have never gotten anything like this before. When I got the photos back, I was shocked to see that they were messed up... or so I thought! Upon taking a closer look I spotted the women standing behind the the girl. Then I used a magnifying glass to get an even closer look. I found quite a few more faces in the photo. You can tell it is not double exposure because the child is clear between the streaks, just the outside of her is blurry. And the women is in a certain period of dress. It looks to be like 1700 or 1800. We always thought we had ghosts in our house, but now to finally see them is very exciting. So... I hope you enjoy these pictures as much as our family and friends have. This page may take a few minutes to download due to all the photos. So please bare with. 2 This was the first photo taken. It is very strange indeed because you see the girl is clear in the middle of her. But around her out line, including her feet she is blurry. Underneath the picnic table the table legs and the leaves are clear, but around her feet isn't. Around her on the top of the photo it is completely blurry and you can see what looks like several puffs of smoke, one is just above her head. And the weird yellow or gold thing is above her just to the right, it is also in the second photo as well. 2 NOTE: As I said before... I blacked out the eyes of the child, otherwise the photo was not tampered with in anyway. If you look very closely at the full picture you will most likely find more stuff than I could blow up. There are so many things going on in this photo and some were hard to get out without distorting them. This is NOT a double exposure because the child is clear in several of the streaks around her.(Unfortunately looking on here and the original are two different things. I tried my best to make it easy for you to see.) Several of the faces and stuff you may be able to pick out yourself, like the women behind and to the left. (In the background) She seems to have a nasty gash above her right eye on her forehead. The strange thing hovering over the child's head (We have no idea what that is.) And there are several smaller faces in the haze around her. One very weird looking one towards the bottom of the child's leg. On the left of the photo.(Which is much easier to see on the original picture.) I have blown up some of the ones that we can see outright but other than that on the net they are harder to see. If you would like to see a black and white version of this photo there is one at the bottom of this page. 3 Here you can clearly see the women behind and to the left of the child, she is in a high collared lace neck wrap over her long dress. I 'm not sure what time period they wore those collars. You can also see she has a cut on her forehead above her right eye and you can barely see her hair is in a bun. There is a faint line where her dress goes down the back. I have also added a smaller photo of her face for a different view. 3 This face is also on the left of the photo. You can see that he looks to be an older gentlemen and has his hair parted on the left. 3 Now... to me this dude looks really scary and dead. You have to look close on this one because it was hard to get him larger and in focus, but you can tell his eyes are closed and sunken in. He looks to have like a thick mustache. This face is to the left and upside down on the photo. Like I said there are faces all over this picture. It is quite chilling to think all these things are hanging out in our backyard. 3 This is one of the last ones I found quite by accident when I was scanning the photo. You really can't see this man unless this photo is small. Actually the smaller the better for some reason. You can see the man is sitting right next to the child on the right of the photo. He is wearing what looks to be a uniform with squared shoulders and a squared high collar. Friends say it looks like he is in a Union uniform. 3 This "THING" is what gets me. What the heck is it? Remember the photo was taken on Halloween Day so there were no leaves on the trees in Maryland at the time. Besides this thing looks like it has some type of substance. Anyone??? Ideas???? 3 This what looks like a baby is on the left of the photo. To most who have seen this say it looks like a baby in a blanket with little brown straps or buckles on the top to hold it snug. 3 Above: I had to keep it small, it wouldn't work any bigger. If you look hard enough on the large photo you can see a small face with hollow eyes and a NASTY NASTY grin. Left: The ugly face here is to the left and down by her right leg. It is easier to see on the original, but you can just make it out a bit on the larger photo. I tried my best to get it visible here. I wanted this one to come out the most because he is by far the scariest looking face, with its sinister grin, in this photo. 3 In this black and white version you can see the women behind the child much clearer... as well as the baby. Thanks Aunt Jackie for the B + W suggestion. Emails From Others about this Photo: To: Rane@scaryscreaming.com Date: Wed, 25 Sep 2002 15:00:56 -0400 Subject: ghost picture with little girl From: "Bruce N." I think the ghosts in the picture may have actually been posing together for a picture in the same place as the little girl. The way they were around the little girl rather than on top or through her, it seems like the ghosts wanted to have "fun" and be seen. Just a thought. Subject: thought of what the "thing" could be. Date: Fri, 15 Oct 2004 09:07:39 -0400 From: Nicoled To: Rane@scaryscreaming.com My friend and I were just visiting your sight and thought that we saw something in the Halloween picture of the girl on the picnic table. The “thing” that you refer to not knowing what it could be…to us it looks in the original photo (color) that it is a man. Like the “thing” could be a scarf or a bow tie around his neck. He looks like he is facing the front with his hands either tucked into his pockets or behind his back. It is very defined, you can see the outline of him and his hands and his legs. BUT, when we looked at the black and white photo of the same area, the man looks like it is a woman! It looks like the “thing” is perhaps a bonnet leaning close to the front of her forehead. Her body is facing to the right of the photo but her face is looking directly at the camera lens. You can see that she has a sweater type of thing on over a long fitted dress. It almost looks like she could have been taking a walk and was looking over to see what was going on. Nikki Subject: the yellow thing you don't know about... Date: Thu, 12 May 2005 16:46 From: jessica t To: Rane@scaryscreaming.com I think that that thing is a claw of some sort. if you look at it in that close up, and look side ways tilting your head to the left, doesn't it alone I mean look like an eagle's claw or demon's claw or something??? I mean this yellow thing just stands out. It’s got to be evil some how.... by the way... the other two emails on your page, I see exactly y what they're talking about. There is a woman in the black and white and a man in the colored picture. This is so fu**ed up! Subject: the strange yellow thing Date: Mon, 1 May 2006 From: Merrlandqt To: Rane@scaryscreaming.com ok i am almost completely sure that the yellow thing is an eye n if u look in the blown up version of the girl u can see there are two of them n a face around them.. the face looks like it could either be a cat or a demon of some sort Subject: Date: From: To: Subject: Date: From: To: Subject: Date: From: To: Subject: Date: From: To: COPYRIGHTS do apply to all Photographs taken by Shadow Stalkers Investigations they are the soul property of Scary Screaming of Maryland, unless otherwise specified.
