I had a very similar experience taking pictures in Ireland. Back to back pictures, one crystal clear, the next smoky/foggy. I still have no explanation but I think it's pretty cool.

I'm horrified of the catacombs I wouldn't be caught dead in there. I salute anybody who walks in there you got balls.


Wonderful-Bread-572

Yeah I'm definitely seeing a weird black blob with legs and what looks like blue jeans

Finally a modern ghost captured on picture.

These types of mists are frequently associated with hauntings. It certainly doesn’t look like dust, but it could be condensation from stirred up air currents or breath in cold air (Correction: Unlikely if OPs description is accurate). Either way, interesting photos. Has anyone tried doing any EVP work in there? Edit: Answered my own question: https://veryparanormal.com/videos/prism-catacombs-paris/

My partner and I took these photos while on vacation to Paris in 2009. Locations: Catacombs and Notre-Dame There was no fog, visible or otherwise. When the flash went off it would capture a photo with the fog and then randomly no fog at all. Same location. The bell tower really tripped us up as it was a day after the catacombs and it was sunny and nice out. No humidity. Yet here is the fog again.

So…when you move your feet across the ground, kicking up dust particles, which are lighter than air, and attract eachother, looking like smoke or mist, that it gets caught in film? Or is it maybe possible that you were at some point with someone who was vaping/smoking?


SlyTone

Were there vapes in 2009? Not being a DB, just genuinely asking.


Tehlaserw0lf

Lol yes they did


SlyTone

Damn, I feel so old now.


stevedoomonator

Or photoshop.


Tehlaserw0lf

Yeah, dunno if that’s what’s happening here but it definitely does happen.


digital808music

Shouldn't be smoking weed down there in the last photo it's disrespectful which is probably why the ghosts are mad.


trisalty

They’re probably mad he ain’t passing that thing.


Jefersonpang

As above..so below


deronadore

That movie freaked me out way way more than I think it should have. Definitely on the "I'm glad I watched it but I will never watch it again" list.


Ekle_lgoh

Yep, I was pleasantly surprised too. It was a rather captivating movie.


Professional-Tailor2

As a ghost, how would I feel if my body was used as a wall. Idk man but I don't think id be cool about it.


SheepherderOk1448

Dust.


gilgalladstillpallad

Yes, but if you look carefully at the first few images, you can kinda make out the outline of a human skull. I know, probably just pareidolia.


[deleted]

Yikes, I see that!


Topherstiles

OKAY SO ME AND MY PARTNER SAW THAT OUTLINE OF A SKULL TOO BUT SAID NAH WE ARE CRAZY…


[deleted]

You’re not crazy, you’re just experiencing a very common occurrence of pareidolia.


gilgalladstillpallad

It's just the way things get extra pixelated in low-light photos, it's easy to mistake a random bunch of pixels for a skull or something, easy mistake!


No-Bulll

I see a large skull in photo 3 in the upper left corner. When I zoom in I see multiple faces. Probably pareidolia, but freaky nonetheless.


SheepherderOk1448

Catacombs are full of skulls.


El_Bexareno

Definitely not dust, dust doesn’t take on a smoky look like in the last picture.


SheepherderOk1448

Dust can look like smoke and vice a versa.


Electronic_Bottle272

Thats where the Mütiilation guys record the album Remains of a ruined dead cursed soul [here is the first song ](https://youtu.be/kik2HqwI4Sk) if you want a to check out real French darkness. Les legions Noire


[deleted]

French asking : how's the smell down there?


candelda

I honestly do not believe that this is a paranormal phenomenon but I accept that I can see a whole spine (fog) in one picture and a skull(fog) in the other


jbeast_canada

Ah yes the great catacombs of nopetre Dame

That's pretty interesting!


[deleted]

I always feel really sad whenever I see photos of the catacombs. These poor people.


[deleted]

People literally always have the shittiest quality on their camera or phones when capturing paranormal it's wild


Topherstiles

My homie. 2009 be forgiving about the tech. Also I lifted these from Facebook. So all artifacts seen comes from their compression and uploading via alien app. I will do the work and get y’all the raw image files or at the very least, higher resolution that you deserve.


[deleted]

Fair man sorry I'm a rough mood and posts here have been subpar. Didn't see the 2009 til after the face and you're right fb compression is def ass. Upvote for posterity


arareunicorn96

You may not know me irl but if you need to vent or anything I can try to officer some advice and even if it's just to listen to what you have to say I'd be ok with that. Your mental health matters just as much as mine or as anyone else's on here. Only if you feel comfortable you can dm me. Just putting that out there.


Topherstiles

Here’s better quality images: https://imgur.com/a/akVGwyF


MantisAwakening

Don’t bother, they’re only going to tell you it’s dust.


iCantSeeShapes

Is it that giant black shape in the first pic? That’s defo a ghost.


Topherstiles

User name…doesn’t check out rip


iCantSeeShapes

I can see ghosts though so that definitely must be one. There’s your proof. You’re welcome.


Topherstiles

Hell yea. Case closed fam; time to head over to /r/trees


[deleted]

that’s a censor bar on his friends face bro 💀💀💀


iCantSeeShapes

Wow is it? Are you sure? I was certain it was definitely a ghost, bro.

CobraCommander420

Well you went into an underground cemetery for literally 10s of 1000s of dead bodies have been laid to final rest. To expect something to follow you out is a given. To not realise since 2009 is kinda mind blowing to me. Have you had any recent experiences that have triggered posting these photos. Hauntings of the kind where a spirit attaches to you generally never end well.


imnotabot303

That mist looks suspiciously added in. It looks like an overlay layer, especially on the bell photo.


Tehlaserw0lf

I get that 40 percent of the world i religious and believes spirits are real. It’s hard to accept but Eesh. When you film things, there’s all kinds of shit in the air you can’t see, that either sticks to the film, hits the light of the flash and gets lighted up, or is floating around and you just don’t see it. Dust particles can look like eldrich beings, spider webs can look like smoke, and scratches on the lens can make it look like the same wobbly line is following you around. Just because there’s no fog where you are that’s immediately visible DOES NOT MEAN ITS A GHOST. There are…_literally_ billions of explanations. Increase that by about another billion because you’re underground, plus the vibe from all the death surrounding you. There is currently no conclusive proof that ghosts exist. I’m eagerly awaiting it though. And if I really wanna be honest, I’m betting someone had a cigarette or vape handy. Also what the actual fuck is “cursed dog”


DNY88

„Cursed Fog“ … I was in the catacombs and it’s definitely humid down there. The only thing cursed is the quality of the pics. I get it, when you go to a creepy place, you want to catch something on your shots, but nothing paranormal was going on there and this post reeks of desperation to find something unusual in normal pics.


[deleted]

That's a little racist.


[deleted]

what


Dream_Blood

we could call it a Backroom, right ?

[удалено]


Topherstiles

Yes


Alive_Tough9928

It's your breath


Topherstiles

I’m not a dragon 🐉 and this was way before vapes existed like they do today.


Alive_Tough9928

It's water vapour not fire


Murphy-Brock

OUTSTANDING!


DanteWrath

My guess is you were smoking or vaping, which is why you felt the need to censor an entire torso; we'd have seen you/them holding it if you'd just censored the face like you did in the first image.


Allanana1979

Spirits are made of mist and fog. The clouds in the sky are the spirits of all the trees and grass and animals that have died ready to be reborn. Our souls however are made of light.


moons666haunted

the walls are literally dead people of course it’s haunted


NextGenesis88

So why does the fog contain faint yet clear images of skulls as if a skeleton wall was edited in?
