I'm thinking civil war. You hear a lot of stories about them!

Okay, I see the reflection of the female holding the camera, someone in the center (friend), and a male (son) in the right side. Am I missing something? I sure hope so, because I love to see these pics :)

Nothing ghostly...just the reflection of the one taking the picture...as others have said. But the stories have been interesting!!

When we moved to the house we're living in today, we were told that the mother of the former owner lived and died in this house. We heard her quite often, talking and laughing. We live in a ranch style house, and we never changed any of the painting or wallpaper, as we liked it all. But finally, we did tire of it, after about 15 or so years, so we finally repainted, tore the wallpaper off and either painted or re-wallpapered, depending on the room, and we noticed that we didn't hear from her anymore. It wasn't until about 2 years ago that we were told that the lady who died here had been an interior decorator. She must not have felt at home here anymore after we redecorated. We've lived here 38 years, and we can honestly say we missed having her around. She never hurt us or bothered us really, but we could hear her laughing and talking in any of the rooms, not just one in particular.

Hope he doesn't raid the fridge in the middle of the night!

I'd try to take the photo again under the same circumstances and see if it's recreated. If so, it's probably a natural occurring shadow.

That is so cool---definitely a previous resident who decided to hang around. We have a ghost---my beloved dog Sammy---if you are sitting in the living room downstairs, you can hear him jumping down off the bed in our bedroom.
I used to work in a Quilt Shop where we live now before it was sold----the building was built in the 1800's and has been many things through the years. In one room on the second floor, which used to be a ballroom, you could occasionally see ladies dressed in victorian dresses and hats milling around. But the third floor was the one. It used to house a live theatre in the day. This was back in the times when they used lanterns (before electricity was installed) They were doing a play and one of the actors long cape touched the lantern and caught fire and he knocked over the lantern in his hast to extinguish his cape. The drapes etc caught fire and there was pretty much a stampede to get to the back stairsto exit the building. Two small children and 1 adult were trampled to death on the stairs. At night, while working on the second floor, you could hear the children running and playing up on the third floor giggling. One night I put a bowl of marbles up there and in a short while, you could hear them rolling around over the floor and clicking against one another. Don't know if they are still there, as it is a restaurant now, but it sure was cool.

Methinks they are playing with you!

When we moved to PA we rented a very old house on an old estate - the hunt master's house it was called. Our daughter was born the second year we live there and that was when we discovered we had a ghost. The baby's room was on the second floor. Every time I was downstairs and she would start to cry I would see a middle aged woman dressed in colonial type clothing standing at the top of the stairs as I went up to tend the baby. She would stand with her arms crossed and be tapping her foot until I almost reached the second level then she would vanish. My DH thought I was nuts until he too saw her in her usual place when he was home alone with the baby. We had no sense of fear when we saw her and we decided she had appointed herself our daughter's guardian. We never saw her unless the baby was crying. I've always wanted to stop and ask the new owners of the house, who also had small children, if they had ever seen our ghost.
