A resident of Traverse city, Michigan argues that the lens of his camera were whitish ghostly figure that gave him nightmares.

The man was held recently near a local abandoned hospital and took a picture of the facade of the building. After reviewing a few days later received the, our hero suddenly noticed it a couple of pale ghostly figures. One of them is like peeking from behind a column and even waved to the photographer hand.

Impressed with his discovery, the author of the image says:

In addition to the old hospital, on the street, there are many other abandoned buildings. Soon here I want to open several stores, café and restaurant, and while it's a quiet lonely place. I felt simultaneously shock and delight when I realized that was a picture of something supernatural. I even dreamed of then nightmares, although I think that on my picture there is nothing especially terrible. I think they were the spirits of some elderly couples. In my opinion, is even cuter. I really like this frame. When I look at him, I sometimes think that I see the reflection of my flash in the eyes of the phantoms. But I remember well that there was no one standing when I took pictures! And could not on the balcony to be alive, because this building is considered dangerous for being in it. There's even crammed all the doors and Windows.

Skeptics on the web, of course, immediately put forward his pet theory about parabolicheskoi illusion. They say it could be any bright silhouettes that the human brain takes this perspective for human figures. Meanwhile, there were many users who thought that Americans were lucky enough to meet and to photograph real ghosts. Some residents of Traverse city even remembered an urban legend that in an abandoned hospital is inhabited by the spirits of several former patients who once died as a result of medical errors.

A variety of visual illusions (the so-called "sensory illusions additions"); is the formation of illusory images, as a basis which are the details of the real object. Thus, the vague and obscure the visual image is perceived as something distinct and defined — for example, figures of people and animals in the clouds, the image of a man on the moon, "a hidden message", audible when you reverse the audio recordings, the shadows formed by leaves or complexes of objects in certain lighting (sometimes at a certain angle).
