Photo of Balintore Ghosts

A friend of Balintore called Sandy sent me an absolute corker of a photo of a humanoid ectoplasmic apparition in her historic property. I then remembered that another friend of Balintore called Kevin had sent me a ghost photograph from Balintore Castle. There are ghost stories aplenty connected with Balintore Castle, but as far as I know the photo is unique. Here is Kevin's description and photograph:

Whilst at the Castle we took a number of photos. One of which took us all by surprise.  I took a photograph into the lower window of the tower next to the front door. The image I captured was quite eerie. You can clearly see three people inside the window. A heavily bearded man in Victorian clothes and two females one a child with long hair.

Three Victorian Ghosts at a Balintore Castle Window (ish!)


I do not see these individuals myself, but can see a number of individual faces in the blotches if I stare long enough, on the presumed principal that the visual system is predisposed to see faces. Does anyone else see these three faces? Any comments on your mileage here would be most appreciated.

  1. Yes, yes, I see. One of them is even smoking a cigar. They are talking about how spongy was that sponge cake they just had. It was really soft and spongy.

    1. Your ability to tap into "the other side" is only surpassed in impressiveness by your ability to turn that contact to matters culinary ! :-)

    I down loaded the photo and really blew it up and I can see a man with a pointed beard in the square right side of the glass.
    This is so amazing? I wonder if there are any other photo's out there that people have taken?

    Have you ever seen "orbs of light" in photo's taken inside the castle or outside around the castle at night?

    2. I've not seen any "orbs of light" in Balintore photographs, but clearly have seen them in other photos on the Web. I wanted to give "value for money" (metaphorically!) at a Halloween party at the castle, so I escorted small parties of guests round the basement by candlelight - telling them the castle ghost stories! :-) I must write some of these up. Anyhow, delighted you can see the man with the beard.

  3. I can see the sponge cake aswell, along with two cups of Earl Grey, a matured computer science / mathematical genius, sitting down with a younger augmented reality wizkid wannabe. Perhaps it's a vision from the future, reflected in the past.

  4. Actually,all life runs simultaneously.There is no future or past that's only a projection of the mind. There is only "Now"

  6. I see what appears to be a picture or mirror hanging on the opposite wall. And not much else besides the window itself.
