Ghost Apparition Captured on iPad

Ward Green, England – Charlotte Wearing, a sixteen year old girl, was using her ipad to snap a picture of a bird in her garden when she was shocked to see the photographed revealed the spirit of a man her family calls “Jack,” reports The Daily Mail.

The man is seen to wear a cape and sports a top hat. The image looks much like a 19th century gentleman. Her family has reported seen the haunt before but this was the first time he’s been captured in a photograph.

The incident left Charlotte pale as a ‘ghost’ but did not cause her any harm. Nevertheless, Charlotte said of the incident, “I don’t like it…I just don’t like it.’

Her mother Jillian is more circumspect and wonders if “Jack” is looking for a woman in a shawl holding a baby which has been spotted inside the master bedroom the year before.

She hopes “Jack” can find what he’s searching for and move on.

Not everyone is a beilver.

One Sun reader noted:

“Sorry but I’m sure that’s fake. It’s an iPad and there is an app for everything. Ghost capture it’s called. I had it and the same man was one of the ghosts on it. Nice try.”

Another reader agrees, there’s an app for that:

“Yeah, this is from an iPad app which adds ‘ghost’ images to any photo you take. That exact ghost is available in the app. Which makes me wonder whether the back story about ‘Jack’ visiting the family for 4 years was made up by the family, or by the journalist, or both together?”

Jack isn’t the only ghost the teen has seen. The 16-year-old also claims that she saw a woman in a blue dress and shawl holding a baby in her parent’s room last year.

    if you stare at the picture you can see the complete man, everyone, dont be narrow minded, that keeps the world closed.

  2. There are ghosts at the bottom of the garden! Do you think he scared off the fairies?

  3. “Real” ghosts and spirits are one thing, but this looks like someone added Sir Topham Hatt from the Thomas the Train show…
