Halloween's Unseen - Ghost Stories and Pictures

Ghost Pictures - September 27, 2004

We are again most fortunate that another of our paranormal sympathizers has sent us a few ghost pics for our haunting pleasures. These photos are exceptional and I feel honored that Joe saw fit to share. Anyway, here they are all the way from Yakima, Washington. (I just loved Yakima when I was there!) I have also included Joe's description in his own words of the ghostly happenings he and others have experienced in this obviously haunted house. Thanks, Joe!

Hi, my name is Joe and I have a few pictures that I took at a house that we were working on. The reason I took the pictures is that my dad and two brothers started work on this house and all three had some kind of encounter when they were alone. My brother, David, was downstairs looking back at his work and seen someone come around the corner from the corner of his eye but when he turned to look their was not anyone there. My dad was in the house alone at one time and had to stop working because he heard people talking upstairs but when he went up to look, there was no one there. My brother, Mark, was also left alone at one point in time and clearly heard children running and laughing upstairs. Scared, he hid in the closet for about a minute thinking and went to take a look. Again, no one there. He left running and never came back. There is where I come in. I go to help Dave finish the job and he tells me about the incidents and I love anything about the paranormal so I brought my digital camera and a disposable camera and started taking pictures. I took pics for two days. Second day, just used digital camera and this is what I came up with. Oh, these are just the digital pics; just got back film on other camera and something came up on those too.

And in a second email, Joe writes:
Just to let you know, I do have other pics that I can't explain from my digital camera and also pics from a disposable camera. I just have to put them on disk. Also, these pictures were taken in Yakima Washington.

I don't know about you guys but those pictures are real creepy! I suspect that Joe is on to something here. Especially the picture of the area around the water heater. That is a fantastic picture! But on second thought, the orb pictures are pretty damn good too! Maybe if we ask Joe real nice, he'll send us some more! Or better yet, hey Joe! (Hendrix) I dare you to spend the night in that house and sleep (sleep?) upstairs or even better, down there with the warm water heater and duly report back to us - that is if you can report back to us! I'd go with you but, uh, uh, (gulp) I've got to work so I guess you're on your own, bud! I double dog dare - no - I triple dog dare you to do it!!!!! I dared everyone on the first page of this site to sleep for just one night in those woods with the beast and I don't have any takers on that either! Geez! Y'all are a bunch of scarety cats!
Okay, update guys! Joe did try to sleep in that house and unfortunately he couldn't. The house was already sold! Oh well, Joe, we'll think you're mighty brave for trying! BUT Joe has been so kind and sent us some more pictures! We have some more from that creepy old house and, hey Joe, you said that's your brother? He's cute! Is he single? ... Whoops, sorry, I forgot where I was! Anyway it looks like there's a little Orb keeping company with your brother! And just look at the ceiling pics. That house just stinks with energy!
And finally, Joe has taken a few cemetery pictures for us. Don't you just love the atmosphere that is captured in these shots!
Thanks so much Joe for sending more pictures. We will be waiting on the next batch! We're never happy are we??!!

Update - 9/9/02 - The next batch is here! Joe has sent some more pictures!! These are really, really good. Joe just has a knack for taking really exceptional ghostly Orb pictures! It seems that his house is probably inhabited by more than his family and he has found a haunted store! He is going to do further investigation on the store and has done some on his house. Anyway, these pictures make you sit back and think! So here they are and, of course, accompanied in Joe's own words.

I did find out a few things about where I live from a fireman that works right behind our building, which I do live in a four apartment building that used to be a motel a long time ago. Anyway, I found out that there has been a stabbing and a shooting which resulted in death plus there has been a few deaths by natural causes and our upstairs neighbor's baby died right after we moved in. They no longer live there. Maybe just maybe there is where our energy is coming from. I thought you might like to know. Joe
In the first pic, there are several orbs in the upper left hand corner and you will notice I bleeped out the faces to protect the young! Thanks Joe!

Update - October 7, 2002 - Is everyone ready for a surprise? How open-minded can you be? The following pictures are a continuation of the above pictures. Joe is pretty sure that he took the following pictures at his house also so when I saw that I can't make anything out of them, I sent them to The Ghost Tracker and I sure got a shock when I received his reply! Considering that Joe found out that a baby had died in his house, The Ghost Tracker's findings were chilling! Here's the pics and the findings.
Our Ghost Tracker has examined Joe's latest pics AND his report goes like this in his words:
Hello, Janet.
About the new pics, these are classical pictures but not of ghosts or anything that I delve in. I had a friend of mine take a look at them, he is a professor at Duke University. He downsized them from my e-mail and hold on to your hat! When both of these pictures where downsized and a color film was laid across them, these are not ghosts, but actually the closest thing any of us will get to heaven right at the moment -- no not angels, but Cherubs or what the old timers would call a soul that has made it into heaven, but is not yet an angel!
Now Joe and I knew that we'd being going out on a limb to put these pictures up but how could we resist! We just hope with all our hearts that it is Cherubs! What a wonderful and heartwarming finding! I don't know about the rest of you, but I believe that they are little baby angels! Here they are!

UPDATE! October 29, 2002 - Joe has sent us a TREAT for Halloween! These cemetery pictures are spoooooooooooky! I asked Joe if he was scared out there. I know I would be! Anyway, enjoy our haunted Halloween treat! They're coming to get you, Barbra!!!

UPDATE January 15, 2003!!! Joe has sent us a new batch of pictures and these are the creepiest yet. Joe, what a knack you have for taking scary pictures! The picture of the house looks like it should be in a movie and the tree, OMG, the tree!!! Anyway, here they are with a description given by Joe!
Joe writes
I went to go and check out a house that a friend told me about in Buena, WA. No one has lived in it for a few years but I guess when people moved in they immediately moved out within the week. One family moved out after the first night! It's said to be haunted! I had two people with me, one guy did not want to go in or wait outside by himself and I didn't want the other one going in by himself and I didn't want to either so we decided to go back during the day. All the inside pictures were taken from the outside through a broken window. Please compare the two front room pictures which were taken about 5-10 minutes apart and the close-up picture of the tree (bottom left side). The picture of the front of the house also, look towards the bottom of the pic, looks like I might have partly cut something out of the picture, maybe. I don't know what to make of them so if you could please give me your opinion. Again, I will be going back and photographing the entire inside of the house.

Ok, Joe, I've looked them over and in the picture of the house, it does look like you've cut something out at the bottom left. May be ecto of some sort because the differences in the pictures of the room is that in the second pic, it looks like you have ecto mist that is not in the first pic. And the tree, creeeeeepy! It looks like you have a fairly large orb on the left side. These are truly great pictures. Are you making your return trip anytime soon? When?
