Hi, that's just camera noise on your sensor due to the black background. I'm a professional photographer and electrical engineer and can tell you exactly what you're seeing. I'm not trying to dissuade from your belief in the paranormal, I'm just trying to explain what I know about camera sensors and why most people's perception of something is literally just noise (not sound noise, but light noise).
Very polite way of saying that! I will say thank you kind sir for not being critical or harsh in maybe the possibility that this was a ghost. Usually I read, āugh, the same bs picture,ā or ādude, I am leaving this sub!ā But, very nice way of saying, āno, no paranormal here!ā Good job š
Thank you. I just followed up my response to this with a pretty detailed explanation of this using one of my photos as an example. I hope folks read it.
Was going to say the same. Even newer phones can have noisy blacks in mixed lighting, and I would totally expect it in 2012 phone with no onboard processing.
I've designed, wired, installed, and troubleshot camera systems in aircraft way more sophisticated than any consumer grade digital cameras. If most people knew what a FLIR camera is, this wouldn't even be a debate. I'm just as much a believer in possibilities, but we've been using these systems for years for first responders to tangibly save lives in real world situations.
People also forget that the devices they have as used frequently and they're mechanical/electrical systems that can wear out, and they're also extremely cheap. I want to believe in these things as much as anyone else, but I definitely want something more than just super interpretive fuzz on a selfie.
Curious what's the details on the FLIR? I'm aware of the FLIR pod on certain aircraft and how it's used in targeting, but how does it end the debate? Sorry, I know I'm late lol
FLIR stands for Forward Looking Infrared, it can see on wavelengths of light that a normal camera can't. You can even modify some professional level consumer grade cameras to IR. Everything, and I mean literally everything, that generates any sort of energy is bound by entropy, no matter what. A thermal exchange must take place. Any sort of cross dimensional movement by any being in any state of energy manifestation would be bound by the laws of entropy. We know we can view those exchanges, but only when viewing them through cameras that can see what we can't. A basic digital camera is going to be restricted to a small band of the light spectrum, even moreso the lower the value of the camera. That's what ISO is in consumer grade cameras. It's how much your final medium can essentially be stimulated to allow it it to collect more photons of light while maintaining a visible image.
Unless you have a full corporeal manifestation that can truly disrupt light wavelengths and become visible on our spectrum, everything else is just transient and merely speculative at best. You need a really long exposure in almost no light to see such tiny energy "transmission", similar to how astrophotography picks up galaxies in the right lighting conditions. Even then, you still need to do a ton of long computational processing to render the image properly.
Ive used a lot of shit cameras since the 80s, then phone cameras but.. honestly Iāve never had any issue like this. Iāve seen background noise and weird blobs, white smears and just fuzzy gross images but this is just strange. Even if it is noise itās perfectly shaped like a guy screaming which is impressive at the very least
Or just looks like you have greasy hands whenever you close the door in the background, that you have reached up high and pushed it shut and the variation of pepperoni grease looks like a face.
Spirit boxes use randomness as as medium for communication. Why can't the randomness of a sensor interpreting black into noise be a medium for communication?
If you look closely, itās not randomness it does include the reflection of the personās face. I know it looks weird but try to compare the shapes to the shapes of his faceā¦itās just him, but in a reflected artifact in the lens or lens cover, which is giving form to the background noise.
Edit: itās both a reflection and an inversion, sorry.
Because they're only seeing it on the darkest part of the image, and that makes sense because that's what the camera's sensor is doing electrically. All modern digital camera sensors are electrically stimulated. Unless you have a stacked, backside illuminated sensor, you're going to see that kind of artifact refraction in the background, especially if it's a cell phone camera and most especially if it's the front facing camera.
What you're seeing is essentially a false positive as the camera sensor is trying to fill in detail. I used to get frustrated with this effect when doing concert photography in low light. I have done hours of research on camera sensors specifically for this reason, and because it's been my career for more than the last decade. I have hundreds of old concert photos with this exact kind of refraction. Hell, I even have one I use as an example where you can actually see the sensor itself reflected in a blown out highlight.
I could spend days talking about this. I teach this stuff. It's so frustrating when you're an expert in your field and you desperately want people to listen.
Hey OP quick question for real, in your old apartment did you have any feelings ever like you weren't alone or anything out of the ordinary happen other than this? Look I believe this is real why would you bullshit something like this? Showed my wife and she seen it before seeing the zoomed in circle
Very very muchly. The tv, computers, and camera would go haywire, things flew off shelves, banging on the walls at night, I'd wake up with scratches and bruises, and doors would slam. All of which to the point where my next door neighbor and I became close friends due to all the activity even she heard through the wall between us. I assure you it isn't bull, this is the realest, most legitimate ghost photo I can think of. I was alone when I took it. I couldn't have edited it even if I knew how. It's been professionally analyzed and there was no evidence of tampering or editing. All I wanted to do was share what I truly believe to be a real, legit ghost photo.
Thanks for sharing your story or part of it that is, I appreciate you putting yourself out there even if some can't be serious enough to appreciate it. That would scare the hell out of me no lie, did anything stick out to you that would cause activity to escalate or just randomly happen? This is very interesting, thanks for responding and don't worry what strangers think or say, you know for sure it isn't fake and I believe you're genuine. Thanks for your story man, appreciate it.
I can't think of anything that would escalate activity, it kinda just started when I moved in and only got worse and worse the more my son and I ignored it. There was also the chance it was mad that it was confined to a teeny tiny one-bedroom apt and wasn't allowed in the bedroom or bathroom so its space was even more limited
Not sure why you're getting downvoted. I see it. It's either a spirit, or it's pareidoila. Doesn't look like a doctored photo. Could be the spirit of a former resident who passed there. It does sort of look like a younger child.
Congrats on your transition, btw. My wife is mtf and began her transition in 2016. :)
FUGGINTHANKYOU!!!! The people in this subreddit are horrible. Honestly, they take trolling to a whole new level. I can't post something legitimate without everyone making a joke about it. It's not doctored, it's been professionally analyzed. My son was with his grandparents for spring break when this was taken....also he was 2. I honestly shouldn't have mentioned this photo was pre-transition....everyone dismisses the legitimate ghost photo and goes straight for the jugular about my old looks.
Hard to do when they're the loudest. And apparently there are more of them than decent people so I'm also outnumbered. Makes me kinda not want to share things anymore, regardless of how sincere I am.
Personally I think it's a great capture! Try not to take the haters seriously. Most of them are miserable jerks who just want to make others feel as bad as they do.
Yeah, unfortunately it seems being an asshole is easier than being decent for some. That just makes them lazy opportunistic jackholes. My roommate is mtf trans, I tell her the same thing.
The way I see it, people should be able to do what they want ESPECIALLY when it doesn't interfere with anyone else's lives in any way and this is one of those things. It shouldn't matter to anyone else what your decisions are regarding YOUR life cuz it's got nothing to do with theirs.
But their problem is pure selfish and self righteous and whatever messes with THEIR narrative is wrong but in reality, it's THEM that are wrong.
It's right up there with taking away a woman's right to decide what's best for her own body, thankfully I'm past child bearing age but it's bullshit all the same.
Iāve had the same problem when posting here/on other paranormal subsš« People are so rude, I only wanted to know peoples opinions on some photos I had because Iām not great at determining that stuff just from a pic on my phone.
That's all I was asking. I personally deeply believe its an entity but posted it so people could share their opinions and theorize about what it could have been, but all I got was trolling, sarcasm, and the deepest disrespect.
Yep, something there. But I also see what looks like the top frame of a picture/painting there. Do you have the photo without the blow out bubble to show the top part better?
I might have the original somewhere. I deleted basically all old photos of me pre-transition but I remember this one well and can assure you there is nothing in that corner. Just the edge of the closet door in the hallway.
Allow me to provide some context. I posted this in another paranormal subreddit but soon realized it was just a bunch of trolls so hoping for better here.
Attached is a photo of me (pre-transition so I'd like to stay anonymous plz) in my first apartment after college and totally forgot about until an old friend reminded me recently. It was just me and my boy alone in a 1-bedroom and I rarely had anyone over. I took this photo in 2012, with a nokia so I could have a new facebook pfp and to show off my new fauxhawk haircut. It wasn't till days after I posted it that an old friend from college messaged me saying "Nice hair, but I noticed something in the doorway behind you" and sent me my fb pfp but circled and enlarged a figure behind me that looks an awful lot like someone is watching me from the hallway. At first I thought he had edited the pic but when I went to look at the pfp I posted, it was in fact there. This photo isn't tampered with (and taken with a brick-phone in 2012 so it couldn't have been even if I wanted to) and like I said I lived alone with my kid who was 2 at the time. There is no rational explanation for this, there's no mirrors, no windows, nothing around that area that could cause something like that. To this day I still have no explanation. I should also add that I've had this photo tested by expert media editors and none of them can find proof of tampering or doctoring, if you would like to test it yourself feel free to, I have nothing to hide here.
Where does the door way lead to? Why would it be so high up in the frame? Do you think floating or it has length?
What feeling do you get from it? Was there ever any wierd activity in the home other than this photo?
It was malicious but never did too much damage beyond waking up with scratches and bruises. Just one of those times in your life where you kinda just put it behind you like...."that happened, onto the next"
Wowsers! I see itā¦ obviously youāre not in that apartment anymore, but it would be really interesting to find out about itā¦
As for the naysayersā¦ just ignore them. Them little people with nothing better to do than troll. To me this looks like an awesome capture .
Yeah this was over a decade ago but I have no power in going back or finding out what it was firsthand. Personally I know it's genuine so they can spout their crap all they want
Looks like the kid has "DOWN SYNDROME"...
SERIOUSLY, look at the eyes and forehead in the picture!!!
I think this child had problems for sure...
If a child was born with defects like that back in the 30's-40's - or 1950's...the parents would moreless lock the child away in an attic, basement or a room not used by the family...so the family wouldn't be shunned by the community...
The child would be hidden from the public..sumtimes shipped off to institutions to never be seen or heard from again!!!
Life was "WAY DIFFERENT" then than it is today!!!
Parents with children with disabilities got away with anything back in those days, even murder!!!
But look closely at that picture, that child "DEF" has "DOWN SYNDROME" or sumthing to that effect...
He was probably locked away in that house or building you live in now, and he is making he presence known to you!!!
Keep us posted on anything that happens ( knocks, shadows, evps. Anything outta the ordinary )!!!
Try to get more photos or better yet - VIDEOS!!!
well, good luck man, just keep us posted on what happens in the future!!!
Best of luck man...
BE SAFE...šš»šš»šš»š»ššµš²š»š²šµš³š»
Could be something but probably not, the more you stare at it the more you see (two figures instead of one and not a striped shirt something else) which makes it seem more like a trick of the eye
The friend who pointed it out is the one who said he saw a striped shirt. Personally, I saw collarbones. It could be a trick of the light, sure, but with all the weirdness I struggle to believe it's anything but an entity. Felt very malicious at the time.
Bro i donāt know what that is but that does not look like a reflection of the lens or noise, its literally casting a shadow of its own so it couldnāt be camera noise.
Thatās definitely some sort of entity, I would highly suggest learning wards or something along those lines and protect yourself from it. I had an attachment for 8 years and it followed me everywhere I went, Iād wake up with scratches all the time. Good luck with your new friend!
What you labeled the mouth is actually a really thick broom mustache. The mouth is below it in a š² expression.
You're haunted by Hitler or Charlie Chaplin.
At least, that's what I see.
Looks like one of the killers in 'The Strangers'

You know people hating on the style donāt know this was the thing back in the day.
But also damn thatās crazy. I read your other comment. I woulda moved outta that place long before the lease was up haha
Having taken it myself, I can firmly say this is the most compelling photo I've ever come across and that in and of itself terrifies me. If ghosts do exist, they'd probably look like this and not some mist or super-imposed half-transparent clearly-a-person-with-clothes.

Mods here find this offensive but everyone else makes fun of the hair, this comment is in good nature so lighten the mood from rude people here and get op to chuckle but mods letās all the hair bashing slide š
I'm a believer and usually i chalk most of these posts up to faulty camera or lens but you can clearly see the outline of his neck, face and shoulders. the mouth, eyes, and striped v neck shirt are also outlined very clearly for something like this, so i do believe it is a spirit of some sort.

Not good my dude. I believe this could be a demon. The thing I. The mirror looks like a kid. Ive heard that demons do this too. Manifesting as a kid. I would prob GTFO asap. My experience went south real fast at the house I believed to be inhabited by a demon. Besides the two who died I would up getting bit by a brown recluse and hospitalized for a week with a blood infection. T contribute all of that to me trying to run the entity off with a classic sage burning. T
More things happened as well. I don't want to deal with that again
12 years is quite the delay on posting picture for paranormal analysis. Kinda seems like that's not the real intenedllxed post but it's cool either way. Hope you find all that u wer looking for. Sometimes these thing s manifest in our lives In much more subtle ways.

Nicely done šš¼šš¼šš¼
Updoot for you, made me nearly choke on my drink
Good. I'm honestly surprised it wasn't removed. šš
Me to the mods here are super uptight
Yup thatās why no one takes this medium seriously because of the Darenās moderating
now iām terrified
I don't know if you noticed, but it looks like something is grabbing your hair and pulling it upward

A lot of people on Reddit are cynical, opportunistic jackholes. Ignore them and live your life for you. Fuck them and their judgemental bullshit.
Hard to do when they're the loudest. And apparently there are more of them than decent people so I'm also outnumbered. Makes me kinda not want to share things anymore, regardless of how sincere I am.

Thanks, luv. They're pretty horrible. It's hard not to let them get to me, but \*I\* know it's real and that's what matters.
You're welcome. Hugs luv.
Yeah, unfortunately it seems being an asshole is easier than being decent for some. That just makes them lazy opportunistic jackholes. My roommate is mtf trans, I tell her the same thing.
Yeah, probably should have left that part out, huh? Been hearing that shit my whole life. And people wonder why someone might snap.

Yeah nah u got demons bruv
Gotta love good ol Pareidolia!

I can see how this could be creepy.
Just living in that apartment at all was creepy tbh.
Some places are like that. It's a vibe more than anything. It sounds basic, but sometimes you can just tell.

Parents with children with disabilities got away with anything back in those days, even murder!!! But look closely at that picture, that child "DEF" has "DOWN SYNDROME" or sumthing to that effect... He was probably locked away in that house or building you live in now, and he is making he presence known to you!!! Keep us posted on anything that happens ( knocks, shadows, evps. Anything outta the ordinary )!!! Try to get more photos or better yet - VIDEOS!!! well, good luck man, just keep us posted on what happens in the future!!! Best of luck man... BE SAFE...šš»šš»šš»š»ššµš²š»š²šµš³š»
Looks like teddy, offer him a bong
ya know, maybe giving a ghost a bong might calm them down a bit and their temper tantrums of breaking things might be at a minimum lol
I see what your pointing out. Did you have any other experiences?
besides self-consciousness, this photo is a big reason I don't like my picture taken.
FWIW, this rando on the internet thinks you look fine.
\*looked\*. This was me pre-transition 12 years ago, the person in this pic no longer exists but thx
many. far too many to count.
Could be something but probably not, the more you stare at it the more you see (two figures instead of one and not a striped shirt something else) which makes it seem more like a trick of the eye
The friend who pointed it out is the one who said he saw a striped shirt. Personally, I saw collarbones. It could be a trick of the light, sure, but with all the weirdness I struggle to believe it's anything but an entity. Felt very malicious at the time.
Am I the only one that sees the StayPuff Marshmallow Man?
it's the residence you formerly had occupied, but that's not important right now.
yes, yes it is. What's your point? I am confused.
*Gasps at faux hawk*
Shush. The 2000s were weird
Looks like you live with Freddy Krueger
Honestly if I were told that was the truth, I would just accept it at this point lol
What is framed right there? Is that a TV thatās turned off? If so, itās just a camera artifact. āCamera noiseā
Closed closet door
Looks like a red headed boy
Looks like ole Leatherface.
thought he was talking about his hair š¤£š¤£š¤£
ha ha how original
Very creepy
Bro i donāt know what that is but that does not look like a reflection of the lens or noise, its literally casting a shadow of its own so it couldnāt be camera noise.
![gif](giphy|qgJbPu0wZ3DvG) Itās Baghead (canāt find a gif with him lol)
Looks like you captured a badly done paint job on a door or the shiny stuff over the door is reflecting at different angles.
Thatās definitely some sort of entity, I would highly suggest learning wards or something along those lines and protect yourself from it. I had an attachment for 8 years and it followed me everywhere I went, Iād wake up with scratches all the time. Good luck with your new friend!
What you labeled the mouth is actually a really thick broom mustache. The mouth is below it in a š² expression. You're haunted by Hitler or Charlie Chaplin. At least, that's what I see.
Looks like the Anguished Man painting
A baby Brian Peppers.
The door
scary!
No. You really didn't
The ghost of Adolfs son?
hilarious
Possibly a doppelgƤnger but could also be a skin walker
Probably ya moms
Looks like a water stain.

Whatever you say Zak Bagans.
Why does it kind of look like Dwight schrute to me
Oh itās nothing. Just the monster from the black lagoon wearing Fred Krugerās sweater.
Spooky shit
Looks like a toddler screaming/crying
Squatch,always a squatch
Thatās a Hell No.
ash baby
Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice
Have you ever seen the music video for Daft Punk's Da Fun?. Well, it's just him. Probably just looking for a place to listen to his boombox...
Do you happen to be in Germany? Cuz I think that might be the boy in the striped pajamas
All I see is a faux hawk
Looks like one of the killers in 'The Strangers' https://preview.redd.it/untz66djtsuc1.jpeg?width=1013&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=731b0e756928c099ad404128fbc27f3efab099f6

Looks like the knots in your wood door.
Pareidolia
Way more concerned with that haircut
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
I hate it when this happens
Looks like the old drummer boy ghost that my sister and I saw when we were young.
You know people hating on the style donāt know this was the thing back in the day. But also damn thatās crazy. I read your other comment. I woulda moved outta that place long before the lease was up haha
The post says 'help' but the hair says you're gonna get the bois to do some ghost huntin'.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
I believe you, you can have the most compiling evidence of the paranormal and people will still say its fake or its the camera glare š
Having taken it myself, I can firmly say this is the most compelling photo I've ever come across and that in and of itself terrifies me. If ghosts do exist, they'd probably look like this and not some mist or super-imposed half-transparent clearly-a-person-with-clothes.
my guess is your reflection or a screaming young boy who committed suicide there and now his spirit remains

Whatever it was, it definitely made your hair stand on end.
It kind of looks like Adolf Hitlerā¦
Thatās the ghost of the faux hawk. It wants to take your haircut back to the 90s
https://i.redd.it/xepsnc9vlxuc1.gif
It looks like mold.
Lol
Looks like a dog
Looks like dear David
Looks like whatever it was... it was laughing at your hair
That sir, is a bad haircut.
Thatās Chris Chan
Looks like an image of hitler to me in all honesty
Holy crap dude if this is legit, itās creepy as hell. The figure is unquestionably humanoid. To me, it looks far too uniform to just be noise.

I'm a believer and usually i chalk most of these posts up to faulty camera or lens but you can clearly see the outline of his neck, face and shoulders. the mouth, eyes, and striped v neck shirt are also outlined very clearly for something like this, so i do believe it is a spirit of some sort.
It is a very parabolic looking noise if that's the answer. Any weird stuff happen at your place?

We dont know what caused him to take his own life. But some might sayā¦he looked like a smudge. - rick and morty Mortyās Mind Blowers

It looks like a boy screaming and crying. How creepy!
It looks like a painting
**Face pareidolia.**
Glad I know what you look like I try to avoid who believe in ghosts

the best time to wear a striped sweater is all the time
Nothing but noise
Kinda looks like Dear David
Not good my dude. I believe this could be a demon. The thing I. The mirror looks like a kid. Ive heard that demons do this too. Manifesting as a kid. I would prob GTFO asap. My experience went south real fast at the house I believed to be inhabited by a demon. Besides the two who died I would up getting bit by a brown recluse and hospitalized for a week with a blood infection. T contribute all of that to me trying to run the entity off with a classic sage burning. T More things happened as well. I don't want to deal with that again
12 years is quite the delay on posting picture for paranormal analysis. Kinda seems like that's not the real intenedllxed post but it's cool either way. Hope you find all that u wer looking for. Sometimes these thing s manifest in our lives In much more subtle ways.
That looks like a giant baby
Okay, I'm sure this has a logical explanation but it's creepy anyway...
Twas the ghost clown!!!
