| Photos Please keep in mind that as of yet, the field of paranormal research has yet to deem anyone an "expert" in the realm of paranormal photography. This being the case, we cannot say with certainty that the photos here are 100% paranormal in nature. Out of the thousands of photos we have taken over the years, we have termed only a few, "highly questionable'' and those photos can be found below and within the next few pages. We have ruled out all other rational resources to the best of our ability, taking in to account scientific data (although rare) and personal experiences that may corroborate with the photographic evidence. The images were captured with both 35mm and digital cameras. Comments regarding the photos are welcome. |
| The above photo, of what appears to be a cloaked figure, was taken at a cemetery in Janesville, Wi. by investigator, Vicki Turner. Three investigators were present with Vicki that evening during a cemetery outing; none of whom were wearing red. Vicki snapped the photo over her shoulder while the other two investigators were near her; not behind her. We tried over and over to re-create this effect from the same location, angle and position, only to continuously come up empty handed. |
| This strange mist formation appeared on film in the Dix building (now demolished), at the Manteno State (Mental) Hospital, Manteno, Ill., and was photographed (35mm) by investigator Amy Tomlin. Amy reports first seeing a small, red, blinking light in this general direction, before taking the photo. Easily ruling out two obvious sources for the mist: Manteno had closed twenty years before this photo was taken in March, 2004 and there had been no form of heat or electricity within that time period. |
| First, the next three photos are actually the same photo; the above photo is the original. The next two photos were lightened to show the detail behind investigator, Vicki Turner. Vicki took this photo at a cemetery in Port Byron, Ill. and it is safe to say it is the most baffling photo that we have yet to come across. If you look closely, below the red arrow and right above Vicki's shoulder, you will see what appears to be a tiny, blue light. This is very difficult to see, yet it is there. Vicki noticed this upon inspecting her photos after uploading them onto her computer. She then highlighted this photo with her photo editing program to better understand what this small light might be...(see photo at right). |
| This is the same photo from left, after Vicki lightened it, after noticing the tiny, blue dot above her shoulder. She states that she had no idea that something of this nature would show up and was absolutely shocked to see this, as she was alone in the cemetery with her daughter at the time the photo was taken. She also notes that directly behind her was a steep, downward slope. Directly behind the slope lay the Mississippi River, leaving little room for anyone to pose for a photo. A close-up of this photo can be seen below. |

| With a computer editing program, we inverted the photo from left into a negative. We like to do this every now and again, to better examine the detail in a photo and rule out any possibility of a logical explanation. |
| The two photos above were taken in succession by Wilma Perry in a home she lived in for fourteen years. The above left shows a strange, curled light anomaly, seconds later, she took another shot (the photo seen, upper right), and the anomaly was not there. She experienced paranormal phenomena for much of the time she lived there. |
