Charville castle Ghost?

    Hey guys,

    Some friends of mine are down in Charville at the moment making a music video (you can see the camera tracks on teh left) and one of them took this photo

    It was taken less than an hour ago and there is a very distinct shape of a young girl in the foreground.

    Once you see it it's hard to miss it, and I have to say, it freaked me out a little bit.

    What do you's make of it?

    I didnt see her at first. She seems to be wearing some old world clothes too, looks very like a little girl alright.

    Was It a camera phone pic?

    If this was Nearly April 1st Id be a bit suspicious of your post here, but yup freaky alright.

    I'm not sure...

    Personally, with the black top and bottom, it looks like it might have been a camera phone taking a picture of a screen or something.

    Perhaps it was caught on video when they were making the music video and this is a still image from that? I don't know

    I'll text them and ask

    Im messing around with the pic in photoshop.. You can 100% make out a sort of dress..

    I keep thinking her eyes are the curves in the chair. I can kinda make out a nose and mouth.


    EDIT:

    Just doing a bit of googling.. A little girl called harriet died there fell down the from the 4th floor while sliding on the banister.. Now.. Spooky

    Lol. I'm pretty sure it's a doll - there's a couple of them lying about the staircase and library, and I'm pretty sure that's the dress they're wearing.

    It looks like a TV being used for playback in a darkroom - so it's probably someone holding the doll towards the TV screen, and the light from the TV illuminating it enough to cause a reflection.

    Or something.

    I took images of every doll I saw there, they look a bit smaller? i reckon Fajitas is dead on with his theory.

    She does look an awful lot like Emily the Strange !

    (mental note to self: this year, sleep in tent outside again. DO NOT sleep in the castle!)

    It's nothing to freak out over. Humans are pattern seeking mammals:

    Gah stop being so logical you lot.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,410 ✭✭✭positron


    Pfft..! Why would anyone be scared of a ghost that can't even reflect tiny bit light?

    I just google Charlaville Castle and found this:

    "For decades Charleville has been visited by parapsychologists, paranormal investigators and documentary makers hoping to capture photographic or video evidence of the many phenomena reported throughout the years. Orbs (spectral light balls) are frequently seen in the building and the grounds. Legends say the castle was built on the site of an ancient druid burial ground. During the plague in the middle ages the same spot was used as a burial ground, and sick people were buried alive to prevent the spread of the black plague. There are many different types of supernatural presences including the spirit of young girl who fell to her death from a staircase banister."

    Could we ...enhance that ? :D

    Sorry. Saturday night, hot whiskeys... I know, won't do it again. :o

    It does look freaky, but it really does look like a doll. I can't see reflection of anything else, like a corner of room or something ? :confused:

    Spare a thought for hubby who's staying in a haunted castle for music's sake too tonight :p. Different castle though, probably different music too.
