Ghost Tour-An Update
If it is possible to have post-traumatic stress disorder from a ghost tour, I think I may have it.
Ok, so I may be exaggerating just a bit, but let me just tell you, I was up until almost 2am last night because I was so spooked.
What got me so spooked you may be asking since I proclaimed to the world in this post how lame the tour had been?
A few things actually-
The Random Ghost Phone Call
I talked to my brother (who accompanied us to Gettysburg) the day after the tour and he told me a very peculiar story.
He said that the morning after the ghost tour he received a call from his girlfriend’s brother asking why they called his house so late. The guy said that around midnight the phone rang and my brother’s cell number came up on the caller ID. When he answered it sounded like he was standing in a wind tunnel or train station. He said he also heard a lot of strange voices in the background but couldn’t understand what they were saying.
The weird part is that my brother did not make any calls that night. In fact, he said his phone was off the entire night.
The other interesting part of the story is that the ghost tour guide told us of a ghost named Jeremy who liked to make calls with cell phones. He warned us to turn the phones off or there may be some unwanted calls.
Strange Photos
One more thing….after further research, I think that I did capture orbs on my camera. A lot of my pictures had these weird circles in them. I thought that my lens was dirty, but they aren’t in all the pictures so that couldn’t be the case. After doing some research online about what orbs actually look like, I’m really convinced that these are the real deal.
Take a look at this photo. This was in the woods where the tour guide told us to take photos. The first one is a shot with no orbs.
Now take a look at this one taken just a few seconds or so later:
See all those white circles. I thought that they were some sort of smudges on the lens, but I did a quick search on orbs and it appears that when you are in a known haunted place, these little balls show up in pictures. They are thought to be ghosts in the form of balls of light. Supposedly they are life forms that travel in groups. Another theory is that they are not the spirit at all, but just the energy being transferred from a source (i.e. power lines, batteries, people, etc..) to the spirit so they can manifest.
This last picture is the one that kept me up last night. Take a look at the orb or whatever the heck it is that I circled:
I tried to zoom in on just the face:
I know I said that the ghost tour was a bust, but I think I may have spoken too soon.
What do you think?

The phone call this is pretty spooky, but all the way over here in bright day light and lack of having been there… I’m sticking with my disbelief. Why didn’t you get a closer close up of the NotGosling?

You got your moneys worth for sure. Creepy!

Okay, the phone call thing is extremely freaky for sure. Especially if you’ve seen the (piece of crap) flick One Missed Call, which I sadly have. ACK.
As for the orbs (which I can actually see at work today, I’m guessing you uploaded the photos differently than usual? thanks!!), WOW. I would have assumed smudges on the lens too but then they would have been identical in all your pics, right? Not sure about the ghost face, I can’t really see anything, but the other stuff would be enough to keep ME up at night!!

And you didn’t think you’d gotten your money’s worth. I’d say there’s definitely a story to tell now. The cellphone thing is very strange.

First, I must give you credit for making me get off my butt and clean my computer screen. No more kiddie fingerprints and smudges are nice. It seems like you’re right on with the orbs and the last picture of the “face” is a bit freaky. Are you sure those aren’t out of focus tree limbs or anything? Creepy stuff.

Very informative posts, love the look of you site.

Those definitely appear to be classic orbs…not sure that I see a face though. Maybe just 2 things that sort of look like eyes, but they seem a little bit too far apart to be the proper scale for a face. (Did that make any sense at all?!)
The phone call thing is totally cool though. Does your brother’s call log indicate that a call was made at that time?

So freaky!
The phone call is spooky. Really, really spooky. Especially because of what you all were told about the ghost! Yikes!!
And I see the face. Very creepy! I wouldn’t have been able to sleep after all of these revelations, either!

Yep, those would be orbs… my pictures from Charleston are filled with them… and the phone call, creepy!!!!

Hmmmm . . . weird, I think, but a bit funny at the same time

Ok I am scared now….its broad daylight and I am scared. I dont want to go downstairs by myself to get ready. I may wake Sophia up from her nap so she can protect me. I could never go on a ghost tour ever.ever. ever. I am the biggest scaredy cat on the planet. I think I will be staying in my pj’s all day just so i dont have to go downstairs …my room is in the basement.

P.S. a couple days ago I got a very scary phone call at night. (Thank God Chris was home) The ladies voice was soooo eery right away I got chills. I couldn’t understand what she was saying ..it sounded like gibberish. I told her she had the wrong number but she kept speaking gibberish…THEN She kept saying mama, mama…..OMG I almost shit my pants and I hung up freaked out of my mind!!! I still am freaked out by this incident. OK I am so not going downstairs today!!
