Alcatraz Ghost

by Kenneth
(Tiburon, CA, USA)

I took this photo in Aug 2009 of just a empty cell. When I got home and look at all the pics I noted a shadow of a person with no feet or hands. Can you explain it?

Spooked!
by: kzee

Wow! I only seen the figure on the left till I really studied the figure on the right! It does appear to be that of a man sitting on something. Maybe something that used to be a bed! Real good pic! I love this stuff!

Contrast
by: Kristian

There is a contrast of these two entities and that is black 'n white. This is a great picture. Excellent.

I see it!
by: Donna doll

I see it too. I'm into ghosts anyway, but it looks like a prisoner sitting on his bunk with his back hunched over.

I like the image as it seems natural. I agree with seeing both figures. However, the figure on the right does not look like he is staring at your camera, he looks as though he is hunched over sitting on what may have been a prison bed. The thing on the left looks very natural, but I think shoes can't be seen if one looks very closely. Great picture though. I couldn't see any other beings in it though. Do you have anymore you can add from that same visit?

by: GrayReb

Actually, there are two shadow people; the dark form on the left of the cell and a lighter, transparent image on the right, who appears to be looking straight at the camera. Anybody else notice this?
--------------------------------------------------

Hey, Grayreb, me the same. I actually saw the dark guy/gal first. The lighter one, if you look closely it actually looks like a child. Hey, a child inside PRISON?! Could be, but ve-----ry rarely. I guess I'm onto something...

Not trustworthy
by: Anonymous

As few said, there is nothing inside the cell.. I do believe in ghosts but this is not beliveable since nothing can be found even after a hard try. Better luck next time..

Pretty darn good
by: Anonymous

I'm a skeptic about ghosts but after seeing this I'm not sure what to think anymore. It can't be a shadow because it's behind the bars and it has no feet. This is the most convincing picture of a ghost I have ever seen.

Wicked!
by: Anonymous

I see both! I also had my kids look at it. They see both as well. While I think the one on the left maybe the cell door opened just right so it looks like a form. But the one on the right...holy cow!!

Woah!
by: Gothgirl

I've always been interested in ghosts, and this one looks like the prisoner who died in that cell! (I'm not kidding, the area IS haunted) I really like this picture, it helped me get closer to solving the mystery of the ghost!

Welcome
by: Brenda - Webmaster

And thank you for your photo.

My explanation is that either a person is standing there and the bars of the cell are creating an optical illusion making the figure appear unusual or that the figure is not a person at all and some other object in the room that appears to be a human form.

Or it's an apparition, because I don't see feet at the bottom of the legs.

But what do I know?
