Spooky Veeky Forums thread

Are there any historical instances of paranormal activity being recorded? Do you know of any spooky legends or anything paranormal related to historical figures? Also which country would be considered the most spookiest/haunted?

look up the failed attempt to rebuild jewish temple by julian the apostate

Why are those spooky skellingtons pointing at that man? That's not a very nice thing to do.

/r/ing the pic of the prussian (?) in a similar situation but dabbing

That's Ivan the Terrible and the Souls of His Victims.

That's still not very kind behavior towards an elderly deranged man.

There's a shitton of hearsay or second-hand stories being recorded.

Weirdly enough, I haven't seen any reliable first-hand relation.

>Weirdly enough, I haven't seen any reliable first-hand relation.
Gee I wonder why that might be.

>And some of those who have been with Justinian at the palace late at night, men who were pure of spirit, have thought they saw a strange demoniac form taking his place. One man said that the Emperor suddenly rose from his throne and walked about, and indeed he was never wont to remain sitting for long, and immediately Justinian's head vanished, while the rest of his body seemed to ebb and flow; whereat the beholder stood aghast and fearful, wondering if his eyes were deceiving him. But presently he perceived the vanished head filling out and joining the body again as strangely as it had left it.

Post the one where Justinian's head turns into a blob.

Yes, but most photographs and videos purporting to be of paranormal activity have been debunked

The ghost of slavery past

There's the Lincoln ghost train to begin with.

>A few years later, tales of a spectral locomotive began appearing along the path of the funeral train. These were not at all unique to Urbana, but they latched on in the small town and began to grow into a local legend. The ghost train, it was said, was crewed by skeletons and a similar skeleton honor guard stood watch over the casket.

>The sound of the train’s whistle, quite different from modern locomotives, could sometimes be heard, or a puff of smoke from an invisible stack might be seen. Clocks would stop for anywhere from six minutes to twenty (the length of the actual stay). The crossing guards at the Miami Street junction also would drop mysteriously when there was nothing on the tracks.

You mean the shadow people?

Lincoln also was haunted by a doppelganger

They are strange spirits, indeed.
