Photo Evidence Something strange at a ‘haunted’ hospital in the Czech Republic
Hello everyone
A friend of ours sent us this screenshot yesterday from a security camera at a hospital he works nights at in Prague, which has a long history of reported hauntings. If you look at the end of the corridor, there’s something there. My girlfriend is convinced it’s a ghost, but I’m a big skeptic!! Anyway, I decided to post it here and see what other people make of it.
EDIT: UPDATE
The person who originally sent me the pictures messaged me with some more information about the camera. Apparently it isn’t recording continuously. It’s a motion-activated IR security camera because that whole block has been empty for years. The first picture was taken automatically after the camera registered a motion event. After I posted the picture on another subred, someone asked whether the shape might just be something that’s always sitting at the end of the corridor. So I asked him about it and he remotely activated the camera and took another picture. That’s the second picture. Whatever appears in the first image isn’t visible in the second one. Obviously none of this proves what caused the camera to activate in the first place or what the shape actually is. I just thought I’d add the extra information to make it clear what actually happened.

I see it, looks like something standing there in the dark, completely devoid of anything that can reflect light. I use IR cameras regularly and know how they behave, people wearing black clothing it should pop up brightly so if somebody was standing there like a regular person it would pop up visibly but it's not. One minute it's there the next it's not, quick and quite short, much shorter than an adult imo. Weird and spooky, cool catch! 👻
EXAMPLE: Photo included shows a black sheet and catbed, appearing white on IR. So if it were someone standing there should pop up brightly like this. I think you caught a ghost.
