"Totally Unexpected Paranormal Photographs!"

 Welcome!

After so many years of taking paranormal photographs, it looks like that I would suspect that occasionally, sometimes the picture I'm taking might be paranormal, but very rarely do I try to take a picture to see if I can get something paranormal.

Just a few days ago, Greg and I were out shopping, and as we were leaving the parking lot, I looked out the car window, and I noticed beautiful goldenrod blooming in a nearby field. I felt compelled to take a picture of it, especially since I'm writing about our Southern Appalachian Mountain area, and I'm including a lot of pictures that are appropriate for my book. I thought that a goldenrod picture would be a great addition to it.

Greg parked out of the way of the traffic, and I got out of the car, and started taking pictures. I took several pictures, and I was satisfied that they were fine, but when we got home. and I saw them on the computer, I couldn't believe it. My pictures of the beautiful goldenrod were ruined!-

In the above photograph, the flowers and the green foliage in the background were not at all clear, and the photograph below was even worse-

 It was very blurred! It looks as though I moved the camera, which I did not. Besides, at the bottom of both pictures, especially the last one, there is unmistakable ectoplasm!

Therefore, I had to conclude that these pictures were paranormal! My other two pictures of  the goldenrod were very similar to these two.

I reminded myself of previous pictures that I had taken that are a lot like the pictures above..

For example, I remembered the blog post I published on Saturday, May 15, 2021, which was entitled, "The (Haunted) Tavern," in which I described how haunted The Tavern in Abingdon, Virginia was. One of the interior shots that I took there was very blurred!

Another good example of blurring is a Saturday, May 16, 2020 "Spirit Photographs" blog post entitled, "A Haunted Cabin."

The pictures I took a few days ago were totally unexpected paranormal photographs, as most of my paranormal ones are. 

I'm actually glad that my photos turned out the way they did, now, because good has come of the whole experience because-

-After I discovered that the photographs were paranormal, I decided that I would put them in this "Spirit Photographs" blog post since I happened to remember that I had nothing else for this post today.

-Also, I decided to research goldenrod. I discovered that it has some good qualities, of which, no doubt, most people are unaware. Goldenrod symbolizes good luck and prosperity. It's also supposed to be healing, positive, and encouraging. No wonder I was attracted to it! It's apparently a good omen!

Since I don't know exactly why some of my photographs are paranormal, I can only guess why they are. Usually, areas that are paranormal are the result of a person or an animal that has died there, especially if a lot of trauma was involved. The energy of the spirit remains in that area.

The next time that I contact my psychic, I'll ask her about it. Often, she can help the spirit move on to the light.

"Haunted Places"

 Welcome!

There is always something paranormal to write about since there are so many haunted places!

In this blog post, I have three instances of paranormal occurrences.

The first one is an update about an old house and the land it sits on, in Abingdon, Virginia. I previously wrote about it in my last two "Spirit Photographs" blog posts. (Please see my Saturday, May 20 and Saturday, June 17, 2023 posts for more information about this house and land.)

Recently, I talked with a psychic about this property, and she said that the ectoplasm was there because of "Civil War stuff." (Apparently, Civil War battles were really widespread throughout this whole region. She'd told me previously that battles were fought on the land where we live.)

She said that the bright ball of ectoplasm on the ground to the right...

From a Previous Photograph

was the spirit of a Confederate soldier who was 22 years old when he was killed fighting. He was in pain before he died. He had a girlfriend, and he felt sad that he wouldn't get to have a future life.

There were dead people around him. (See the other ectoplasm to the left of the ball of ectoplasm.) So his trauma was left there, along with the trauma of the others.

In my two previous posts, there was also ectoplasm near and on the house. I assume that it was also related to the Civil War, although she didn't say so.

I have a second photograph of a hill that is behind a regional garden center. I took the picture because I thought it would make a nice photograph, but little did I know that faint ectoplasm would show up in the lower center of the photo, near the rocks.

I assume that this hill is haunted because one or more animals (or even a person) probably died there, no telling how long ago.

Lastly, I heard about an abandoned, creepy town here in the United States that is so haunted that it's illegal to even visit there! The town is Dudley Town, Connecticut. It is believed that the strange deaths and other weird happenings there were the result of the Dudley family curse.

Not only is this a place you wouldn't want to visit, you certainly wouldn't want to live there, even if you could!
