"Ghost" websites

I can't quite figure out if this whole website is one big sarcastic joke, or if there are actually people out there who believe this crap. The webmaster's comments are too much. In one picture of a "ghost" which is obviously nothing more than a flash reflection, the webmaster states, "The flash is actually covering over the reflected flash on the door. It's almost like the spirit used the energy of the flash to materialize." Gee that's real insightful, professor! Apparently these people put more faith in an easily Pchopped photograph than something called the scientific method.

Now I'm not saying there's no such thing as ghosts. I'd love to see something like one someday. But I really can't see how a rational person can accept these photographs as anything more than outright hoaxes at worst, or curious lighting effects at best. I guess I'm looking for someone here to tell me that yes, this website is done entirely tongue in cheek.

I'm not familiar with that website.

However, it's the fanatics of any/every group of people that are the loudest and often do the most damage to the group's image.

That site used to be pretty good, but it has really gone down. I wouldn't call myself a believer, but I've always been interested in the subject. Crap like that just illegitimizes the whole thing.

I have encountered some strange things. Perhaps some of what is here is legit. Who knows? It doesn't seem to have much credibility when it pimps "ghost meters".

UPDATE
Viewer comment concerning green face:
LeRoy writes, Hi all, first off, thanks for putting up some fresh pics... I love the site and come here often. one of the pics that you have just posted though is easy to explain. "Creepy green TV ghost" is a scene from a television show called "batman beyond". its the continuing saga of a older Bruce Wayne (in the pic) and the young man he picked to take up the cape and cowl in the continuing protection of Gotham city. anyway... it would be easy enough to verify, just watch the show. Thanks again for all your hard work."

There's no such thing as ghosts, gods, heaven or hell. They are all just extensions of weak minds.

Certainty is the hobgoblin of little minds.

I bet there are some pictures of hobgoblins on this site.
