Ok, so AoD is bored again. As usual. So I'm just asking one favor. I'm curious to know, What's the scariest, or most disturbing, ghost picture you have seen? What did it look like?

This terrified me not only from a spectral perspective but I'm praying that it wasn't some sort of precognitive photo, although the idea of dancing with Kat in the hereafter is definitely on the positive side of possible eternities.

If so, the one that scared me most IN MY LIFE was the third Topper movie, which I saw when I was five.
I was so young that I had no idea it was a comedy.
But that night, I had nightmares all night long. AND even though I had been toilet trained so long I had no memory of anything else, it made me into a bedwetter, starting that night and persisting for some years.
THAT was ONE SCARY MOVIE.
In my late twenties, I saw it again and realized that it wasn't scary at all, it was just racist and dumb. Different ages, different fears.

We had a neighbor in Chicago that took a picture of her front door, claiming that the glare on the door was the image of a ghost. That was scary, because it reaffirmed my image of her as a complete and utter flake.

I love the music in Halloween , that song they play at the beginning. I love it. The movie is good. But watching it when I was six was definitely a bad idea.

The scariest movie I've watched was Signs, which isn't all that scary. When I was little I saw the scene in Ghostbusters with the library ghost, which terrified me. It was only this year that I actually watched the movie.
I've never seen a photograph that frightened me in the ghost sense, although I've definately been repulsed.
Photographs from Hiroshima and Nagasaki are some of the most chilling I've ever seen.

I read a book about ghosts in St. Louis, Missouri, which is near where I live. After reading that I didn't want to go up there to much anymore. I'm usually up there twice a month.....but I was a bit freaked. Every place I usually go was supposedly "haunted."

Completely unrelated topic - my roomie keeps scaring the living hell out of me.
In the old apartment, the floors creaked and you knew when someone was walking around, never mind when they walked into the same areas or within close proximity.
In the new apartment? Not a fragging sound. This is a 6'5 man who can now tromp around and still make almost no noise.
And I know he's not doing it intentionally - he's not that kind of guy (even if I am ).

I was scared to death, well, not literally, after I saw Poltergeist for the first time. I was a whole 4 years old.
And this thread reminds me...I need to watch Three Men and a Baby still to see if I can spot the supposed ghost in the background.

I was wearing a black, flappy jacket and climbed into a tree hanging out over a long wooden walkway leading from a 4H campground to the beach.
Since this was a high school outing, we had lots of teens going from the campsite to the beach and vice versa.
Did I mention this was on Jeckyll Island? And the walk cut through a small forest of local plant life? And it was a full moon? And once you stepped past the trees at the campsite and onto the boardwalk, all noise died.
Perched in my tree, I watched two girls step onto the walk. They were chatting but once they cleared the trees, I saw them stop...drink in the scenery and just stop. They started whispering and creeping along the path in the way only terrified teenage girls can.
Naturally, being the evil, evil man I am, I waited until they were within five feet of my branch before I leaped out, howling. The jacket, I am told, spread out against the full moon as I landed on the walk.
The two girls shrieked in unison, jumping a good foot and a half in the air and becoming one, albeit tangled ball of arms, legs and screams.
I doubled over, laughing so hard it hurt. Unfortunately, I realized, belatedly, one of the girls was the captain of the girls' soccer team.

When Arachniphobia was in theaters (and if you hate spiders, you had to have jumped a few times during that movie) I wanted to scare people so badly.
I wanted to a get a handfull of tiny rubber insects (about .25 inches long, at most) and stand in the back of the theater. At the scariest part of the movie, toss those puppies in the air and sit back and enjoy the show.
I could never bring myself to do it, as funny as it was to imagine it. I knew that someone would die- heart-attack, trampled, whatever. And it'd be my fault.
It would have gotten a reaction, though.

I can't think of a picture of ghosts that ever scared me. The only movie that I can remember that scared me when I was a kid was "The Watcher in the Woods". It's a 1980 horror film by Disney. Something about the way it filmed the characters being spied upon from someone or something in the surrounding forest frightened me.

I looked in the mirror once when I had an awful stomach flu for over a week, and I looked as pale as a ghost. That freaked me out.

Well, my fav. horror movie was called "The Haunting". Its not the Holliwood one though, its about a family that had four ghosts haunting them, one being very similar to a demon. According to the film, it was a true story. I can't wait to watch this movie again...
