This bizarre photograph was taken in 1966 in the National Maritime Museum, Grenwich, UK -
Reverend Ralph Hardy, a retired clergyman from British Columbia was admiring and photographing the elegant “tulip” staircase, an architectural focal point in the building.
The Reverend insists that the staircase was empty when he took the shot, and was therefore flabberghasted to view a strange “faceless” translucent figure holding onto the bannister rail when he viewed the developed photograph.
The photograph was examined by experts from Kodak, who had to agree that the image had not been tampered with in any way.
Unbeknown to the Reverend, the building (and particularly the staircase) had had been previously dubbed as being haunted due to the number of people who had heard mysterious footsteps and noted doors opening and closing on their own.
