The Ghost Of The Capitol Building
I got this photo while pinned down under the downpour on Friday night. I was stuck under an awning waiting for the heavy rain to subside, and decided to get a photo of the Capitol building. I had thought the Vance Monument was the only human-like object in the photo, but if you look closely at the far left bottom window there is a shadowy figure in the rain. This was a longer exposure (1.5 seconds) so any person captured by the camera should be invisible. Additionally, people are never a solid dark color, especially with so many bright fluorescent lights around. If it was a person standing still, there would at least a few colors. I stood staring at the Capitol building for a long time, and there weren’t any people standing around it or walking by it. I’m certainly not a believer in the paranormal and not saying this is a ghost – but it is something strange.

Well, that place is known to be haunted (inside, at least).

Yeah, I don’t know what to make of this. I have two photos taken seconds before and after this one, and they do not have the figure.
Thanks for the tip of this place being haunted, it’s something definitely worth looking in to.

Wow, John. As promised, I went straight home tonight and pulled this up. Now both my wife and I are pretty creeped out, in the best way possible. You really can’t explain this at all. You should submit this to whatever paranormal activity tracking groups are out there. Or something. Hope you had fun shooting the Haywood house. It was good to finally meet you tonight.
