S03E52 Viral Ghost Photos

Karen and her husband Matt are back from visiting Australia and in this episode we discuss some viral ghost photos. The photos will be in the show notes, and we will cross-post a version of this on our YouTube page with image inserts.
Karen's new book BITCH is on sale now.
 
Blake's recent article about mind viruses seems to be backed up by an even more recent article confirming that clinical evidence doesn't support a "mind virus" explanation for idea spread.

•   Now on to our photos that we talk about in this episode: Giant "humanoid" over mall in Zambia. (Or over photoshop in Internet)
•   Party scene with crying girl also hides "ghost face"
•   2007 - Parma Gas Station "ghost" or "angel"
•   Ghostly "shadow person" walks through traffic
• (original video is gone but version here)
•   "Cowboy ghost" at abandoned mine A bird landing can look like a hat in the distance - but we don't know the scale here.
• It could be a lot of things.
•   This (pretty obvious) long exposure shot shows up on a lot of ghost photo sites.
•   Irish Flax Workers and the mysterious "extra hand" Detail shows "ghost hand" but you can also see manipulation has been done to the plate, erasing some of the pleats in the dress behind the woman with the hand on her shoulder.
