Haunting Photos With Ghostly Presences
On the spooky r/ParanormalEncounters subreddit, people are constantly sharing unexplainable photos that appear to catch some kind of paranormal activity. Even if you're a non-believer like me, it's a blast to check out some scary images that feel like the inciting incident of a horror story. Here are some of the creepiest finds that will have you questioning if the paranormal is real: "A 2009 photo from the Lemp Mansion in St. Louis, MO. Zoom in on the bathroom floor tiles." Do you see it? Pet ghost? Or a mere trick of the shadows. "My family member went on a hike, but someone (or something) showed up in her photo." Did you see it? Is this the ghost? Or perhaps a stranger with a creepy photobomb? "This photo was taken in 2013, I'm still dumbfounded by it." "What are your thoughts?" "Photo taken on the main graveyard (Zentralfriedhof) in Vienna." What do you think? A floating torso or an optical illusion? "Photo taken in 2019 in Gatlinburg, Tennessee." Is that the face of an apparition behind this couple enjoying dinner? Or is this a camera malfunction? that? "Ghost or a lens flare?" "My dad is pretty sure it's a lens flare, but it does look very uncanny. I have shown these pictures to multiple people, and they all think it's a ghost." "Picture from a hospital CCTV camera shows what appears to be a demon on top of a dying patient." The scariest part is the photo quality, but whatever that is, it looks like something straight out of a horror movie. "My friend has recently shown me this picture from 2016 of him and his brother at the front of Blackpool beach at 7 a.m. Photo taken by mother, when they looked at the photo, they saw the figure between the legs and looked around, and nobody was there." Did you see it? Now you can't unsee it. "Little girl" Be sure to wave back at this little ghost if you ever see her. "Something was peeking at me." I think someone is keeping an that someone is on the ceiling. "Can anyone explain this?" My something else in your room. "Night shift at target." This brightened image shows that someone, or something, is lurking in Target. "There was something in my woods last night." Headlights? Glowing eyes? Something else??? You be the judge. "My aunt's china cabinet." Just a trick of the camera, or a reflection from beyond? "Weird figure captured in the middle of the woods." Someone — or something — lurking.

Al Pacino's In A Horror Movie Based On A Real-Life Exorcism, And I'm Forever Haunted By What I Saw In The Trailer
I watched the trailer for the horror movie The Ritual, and I should've listened to my rule about avoiding movies with evil spirits, ghosts, and demons. Spoiler alert: I always end up watching them. Just when I thought it was complete make-believe and couldn't hurt me, I discovered that The Ritual is based on the true notes and findings of a real exorcist who performed multiple exorcisms on Emma Schmidt (who later changed her name to Anna Ecklund). HELP. The Ritual stars Dan Stevens (Abigail, Cuckoo) and the legendary Al Pacino as two priests who team up to perform Emma's exorcism. Al will portray Father Theophilus Riesinger. XYZ Films / Dan will portray Father Joseph Steiger. XYZ Films / Emma will be portrayed by Abigail Cowen (Chilling Adventures of Sabrina, Winx Club). Monica Schipper / Getty Images, XYZ Films The movie also features Ashley Greene (Twilight Saga) and Patricia Heaton (The Middle, Everybody Loves Raymond). Jon Kopaloff / Getty Images, Michael Loccisano / WireImage German-American exorcist Father Theophilus presumably performed multiple exorcisms on Emma (aka Anna Ecklund) in 1912 and 1928, and bless their hearts because it couldn't be me. No matter how often I tell myself that I will stay far away from films like Insidious and The Conjuring, I suddenly find myself back in the irresistible clutches of creepy movies. Filmdistrict / FilmDistrict / courtesy Everett Collection, Ben Rothstein / © Warner Bros. / Courtesy Everett Collection Thanks to The Ritual, I'm back on my paranormal BS, and I'm utterly terrified... and excited. Check out the trailer for The Ritual here, and let me know your thoughts. Have you ever had a real-life scary experience that made you wonder if you should search Yellow Pages for an exorcist? Share your responses in the comments! The Ritual will be in theaters everywhere June 6th.
