EERIE FIGURE IN
CASTLE!
AN eerie image of a figure at
a Scottish castle has got ghost experts spooked. The scary shot
was unearthed during the biggest ever investigation into
photographic evidence of ghosts. The picture, taken in May last
year 2008, shows a spectral figure in fifteenth century dress
peering out of a barred window at Tantallon Castle in Fife. No
mannequins or costumed guides are used at the castle and photo
experts have confirmed that no digital trickery was used. Even
ghost skeptic Professor Richard Wiseman admitted to being
puzzled. “It is certainly very curious,” he said. “We ran it by
three photographic experts and they said it hadn’t been
Photoshopped at all. ’“The figure appears to be in period
costume, but we know 100 per cent that Tantallon Castle is not
the sort of place that has dummies or costumed guides; they just
don’t go in for that sort of thing. “It's of course possible
that it could be a live visitor, strange visitor if that's the
case. The explanation is not obvious.” Tantallon Castle, a
ruined fortress dating back to the 14th century, stands on a
remote rocky headland near North Berwick on the East coast of
Scotland. It was badly damaged in an attack by Oliver Cromwell’s
forces in 1651. Advertisement Christopher Aitchison, who took
the photo, said: “I was not aware of anyone, or anything, being
present in my picture." Psychologist Prof Wiseman, from the
University of Hertfordshire, who has made many studies of the
supernatural, launched the investigation a month ago. Members of
the public were asked to submit ghostly images for experts to
analyze. More than 250 pictures were received from all over the
world and more than a quarter of a million people voted for what
they considered to be the most convincing photos.
