Ghost Photobombs Woman's Selfie Picture in England - Hoax?
One English woman received the fright of her life when she was photobombed by a ghost in a selfie picture.
Natasha Boden of Blackpool, Lancashire, says she took a picture of herself at her home using her cell phone after dyeing her hair blonde, reports Yahoo! News. However, the 26-year-old mother noticed a face lurking near her right shoulder when she zoomed in on the pic. That's when she says she burst into tears out of fear.
Immediately thereafter, Boden says she checked herself into a hotel because she was too afraid to stay at her flat alone.
Boden said that she now thinks her home is haunted and she has ended the tenancy on her flat. As a result, she and her partner, Mark Donohue, and their 2-year-old daughter are looking for somewhere else to live.
"My boyfriend is moving everything out of the flat. I can't go back there. I'm absolutely petrified," she said. "I've never believed in ghosts or anything like that. If someone else had taken the photograph I would think it was a load of rubbish but the face is so clear."
After seeing the creepy ghost-like figure in the pic, Boden says she was "terrified." She added, "I was alone in the flat and I knew I had to get out immediately. It was 11pm but I checked into a hotel and asked my boyfriend to meet me there. There was no way I would be able to sleep after what I had seen."
Although she loved her flat, she says it's not possible for her to live there any more.
"We have only lived in the flat for six months and I really loved living there. I am gutted, but there's no way I can stay there after what I've seen," she said/
"When I first moved in I noticed the floorboards would creak when nobody was there, but I thought it was just because it's an old building. Now I am having second thoughts."
To make matters worse, Boden says she received a disturbing visit from undertakers six week ago that told her that they were there to collect a dead body. Boden told them that they had the wrong address, but they were insistent.
"I told them there was no dead body in my flat but they were adamant. Eventually they came back and apologised and said they had the wrong flat, but it really scared me," she recalled.
Hoax?
The online community's reaction has been two-fold. While many have responded with surprise many more are voicing out their skepticism and calling it a publicity stunt.
