Ghostly Image Caught on
Surveillance Tape Is
a Courthouse in Charlotte, North Carolina, haunted? On Nov.
16, 2006, an image caught on a surveillance tape after hours was so
real, that security guards went up to the room to check to see if
anyone was really there. They found nothing, but guards still
monitoring the security cameras were surprised to see the guards
sent into the room appear to walk right through the woman on the
camera!
She appeared to be sitting at
a desk, writing. Camera news crews covering the story thought
that perhaps the ghostly image was simply a reflection in the glass
surrounding the cashier desks in that area. "While shooting
today, we saw it again, in color, in the middle of the screen, just
over Barbara Jones' shoulder."
"The image appears to be in a glass shield in a cashier's office.
We entertained the thought that it could be a reflection, but we
searched the office, but found nothing that would create this
image."
One officer, Lonnie Reap, who
has worked at the Courthouse for almost 30 years is convinced the
place is haunted. He claims to have heard footsteps when
nobody was there, and other unexplained noises.
According to one historian,
ghosts are normally associated with some tragedy, but the courthouse
does not have any history of anyone dying or being killed there.
