New Zealand ghost photos

Tony Wilson writes: This picture was taken with a digital camera at Tunnel Gully in Upper Hutt. We took it while on set for a Video clip we did with our band Civilian Down. It is quite obviously a person. I am the guitarist to the left and I'm sure that I would have noticed an old man walking through our video shoot.

Gray Hadfield writes: This was a photo we took at a BBQ about 5 years ago before I went down to study in Otago. We had just poured beer on the steak, and my mate took this photo of the flames on his cell phone. The photo freaked us out so much we buried the steak.

Ann Tarr writes: Here is a photo of our ghost. It is actually the shadow of a tree as it passes over the toilet door just for a couple of weeks a year when the sun is in a certain position in the sky. We call it the Ghost of Glenfern (where we live).

Andy Mcdonald writes: This is a picture I took a couple of years ago while I was still living in Queenstown. Look at the windscreen where the water has defrosted It.

Mark Enderwich writes: This was taken a few years ago on a digital camera after a funeral for an uncle.

Kyle Hewlett writes: Apparently a young guy had been killed at the house we were boozing up at. Looks like he wanted to hang out this night as well

Priestley Ouk writes: This was taken late last year at a friend's wedding in that ski resort down in Whakapapa. I only found out while I was down there that it was haunted and on the same night I found out, something grabbed me in the middle of the night. If you look in between the 2 people (me and a mate) you will see a head by itself.

One of two photos taken during a Westport Volunteer Fire Brigade exercise in 2006. They appear to show ghostly heads in the burning house.

Another photo from the Westport fire.

This photo of two students was taken at Linwood College in Christchurch and appears to show a ghost in between the two.

This picture of the head in the basket was taken in early 1996 in Halswell, and has an earthly explanation - it is a picture of actor Jack Nicholson, star of horror film The Shining, from a Skywatch magazine that had been dropped in the basket.
