Creepy figure photobombs

[C C]

Too bad the mirror wasn't in a more opportune location for accommodating a reflection of the "stranger". If enlarged, the older man has a bald spot that the mirror shows, that looks like (in pareidolia fashion) it has "4Y" or "HY" or even "NY" written on it.

"This photo was taken at my wedding. This is my husband and his family. We had a very small ceremony at my grandmother's apartment. Only immediate family members were there. We chose to be married there because it is a beautiful place. My grandma helped raise me. And, when my husband found out where she lived he was shocked... His Grandmother (who had passed away) had lived in the same apartments when he was a child. He had very fond memories of the building. He told me stories about how his grandma had seen a ghost a couple of times... a man. We had absolutely NO strangers at the wedding. We never noticed this man in the photo. My Mother in law passed away a few years ago, and I started looking at photos of her... And to my surprise, there is a ghost in this photo. My husband is convinced his mom brought it to my attention... Because almost 20 years had passed, and no one had ever noticed.

Where he is squatted down, a chair is sitting in the corner. His body would be in the chair. (if he was there.) You can see through his head. It also looks like he is wearing a garter on his arm, and enjoying the wedding. I have had everyone on both sides of the family look at the picture, and no one knows who he is...or remembers him being there. The whole roll of film was used at the wedding, so it was not a double exposure from another picture on the roll. Plus, we don't know him... So we wouldn't have a picture of this guy anyway.

We were married in the Enos apartments, built in 1857. The owner was an abolitionist, and the underground railroad is in the basement of the building to this day. In 1911 it was converted to a sanitarium and tuberculosis hospital. It is a building known for being haunted, and on the local haunted tour."

You can see through his head.

No, you can't. His back also moved the drape.
These are looking more and more like random photos people are just making up stories about.

He's sitting in a chair as described in the caption. Pretty sure that would be touching the drape before his back was.

"My daughter, granddaughter & I were ushered into the movie 10mins before any1 else. So I snapped a picture of us. Looking at the pic we both noticed these 2 in the back. We both looked behind us & there was NO ONE there. Took another couple of pix of the same area & then around the theatre but nothing!! Turns out my Pic was one of many that have these 2 figures in them taken inside the theatre."

He's obviously not sitting in a chair. He's clearly sitting on the floor. You can see the baseboard. So the caption is clearly wrong.
Or do ghosts now... also... make furniture disappear?

no one... remembers him being there.

Or do ghosts now... also... make furniture disappear?

When they are fully materialized they occlude what is behind them, like chairs and curtains. We see this over and over in ghost photos..

"In 1975, Peter Berthelot captured a photograph of his wife Diane at Worstead Church in Norfolk, England, which displayed a ghostly figure seated behind her. A local vicar confirmed that the figure was the spirit of a healer rumored to haunt the church."

The guy is sitting on the floor. There is zero evidence of a chair. Not "occluded." Not there at all... as in vanished.

Or... the story is as wrong about the chair as it is about the guy... who simply "no one... remembers him being there."

"The owner of this photo Corrina writes, "This image was taken in the basement of my new home during a housewarming party. After developing the film, I discovered an eerie presence in the picture. It is not the first time strange events have occurred in this house, as the previous family who lived here also reported unusual happenings."

"This was posted by Toni Gallagher, this was the story….. Here is photo from the Devils Den from several years ago. Soldier not visible with naked eye. Upon developing the man who took it noticed something on top of the range. He enlarged it and saw it seemed like a Confederate soldier missing part of his arm."

"I dug around in my loft and found the "original" photo (attached video of it).
Hopefully this shows that the photo hasn't been photoshopped. On the back it says Polaroid, not sure if this makes a difference.

Hopefully the post will be accepted as I was happily reading all the comments.

Hello, just discovered this group and had to join to see what people make of this photo, taken of my cousin and myself would be early 70s in my garden. Had looked at this photo many times of the two of us. (It was out in a small canvas for my wall) I noticed a third person between us. (Once seen cannot unsee or explain it)

So arm around my waist is cousins.
The head in-between us has no legs, no shadow,
You can see a gap between us and also my legs I cannot see a lower body standing behind us.
So what does the group think?"

Does have a shadow, as the light is nearly from profile, and there's a foot visible between the legs on the right.
Obviously an older, taller person bending down, so their body is foreshortened.

It's really a shame more people don't know basic drawing composition. That would really help their spatial awareness.

Notice the typical colorless appearance of the apparition. Apparently ghosts like to go to theaters to watch movies! I know I would.

"This image was uploaded to the internet by ZeroCoolGuy886. While taking a photo inside an undisclosed cinema, something very strange appeared in the picture!"
