Duhovi sa Watertown-a

The ghosts and spirits stories are told for thousands of years, because death is basically the only mystery that we will never be revealed by science and we we have no choice but to rely on faith or myth to try to find some answers. But, a little over a century, to oral tales of those who claims to have seen one or more ghosts, photos and videos were added. Too bad that in many cases these testimonies have proved less reliable than the same tales of ghosts.

One of the most famous photos taken over the past 100 years is that the alleged ghost faces of James Courtney and Michael Meehan, two crew members of the tanker S.S. Watertown who lost their lives while traveling and were buried at sea, only to appear in the form of ghosts in the waves just off the ship in the following days. The photo that dozens of sites around the world have shown has long been considered authentic, until in 2010 Blake Smith, writer and researcher of the paranormal, did not unveiled the mystery.
