“As a ghosthunter myself I dont mean any disresect to PPI, Ive seen this video for myself and 3 things need to be questioned

1) Theres a hand dryer in the background in which you can clearly see the reflection from the IR light off the camcorder,this reflection is covered when the figure appears.

2) Again same thing with the IR light but this time its refleting off the figures glasses.

3) Why whoever was filming at the time did they not follow the figure,surely it was visable to them when they was filming?”

“tothemax,

Of course you are voicing your opinion, I have no problem with that, these comment sections are, afterall for discussion.

What I have a problem with is people who actively try to con the general public and I think, though I could be wrong, that is quite likely what we are seeing here.

As mentioned previously, there are those who take belief in the paranormal to an extreme and reinforcing these beliefs is not healthy.

There is not a scrap of good evidence for spirits (there remains a ton of bad evidence but lots of bad evidence does not equal good evidence) yet people are hurt financially, emotionally and sometimes physically by belief in them and by not thinking critically in general. So when this kind of "investigation" encourages a lack of critical thinking, I think everybody should be a little angry.”

“i have viewed the original footage,and it is a lot clearer than the one that the telegraph as released ! its a shame the telegraph,as try to enhanced it.as it as spoilt the footage and caused it to blur and pixulate.all i can say is keep going guys”

“@ Nairobian
I was mearly voicing my opinion like you.
seems to me you have something against these people who run these groups”

“@ tothemax

Give them a break? They are either delusional or actively trying to con you. If the former then we should educate them, if the latter then they should be scorned.

Your point about not being there is non consequential I'm afraid. I wasn't alive during WWII but if somebody who was told me that the RAF used magical pixies to fight the Battle of Britain I think I'd have the right to be sceptical.”

“good story, nice publicity 4 the pub, been to the yarborough a few times and felt as if someone was watching me when i was in the toilets even though there was only me in there, didnt like it at all.
lets all give these guys a break, yes the video is a bit bad but none of us can comment cos we werent there when this took place.”

“oops,
don't know where that "e" came from, unless JO was peeking over my shoulder. She's a real devious spook.”

“I hope JO does not go to the pub, now that WOULD be really spooky.”

“I'm usually quite into that sort of thing and I appreciate a light hearted story as next as the next man but, come on fellas your having a laugh! That video is ludicrous - and if that ridiculously funny excuse for a ghost popping up behind the chair isn't your man Nathan then my name's Egon Spengler (and it's not, it's Ben). I can't decide whether they actually think a) they've genuinely constructed a good hoax which they belive they can pull off or b) whether they're doing it for a laugh to see what response they get - I would like to think the latter! The best bit is Nathan saying (with a straight face) that he was the only one wearing glasses on the night and there was no one else in the room! HA - yeah, good one! They then go on to say he/it is clearly wearing a white shirt and what looks like a tie...Nathan couldn't even be bothered to put a jumper on for his interview slot to hide this! I've concluded - b) having a laugh. Surely they're not stupid enough to think that what they've got their might even look genuine in the slightest! Nice bit of publicity for the pub though!”

“Actually ridiculous! The telegraph does it's readers a disservice publishing this.

Let's use Occams razor, which of these conclusions makes the least assumptions?

1) Despite all scientific evidence to the contrary and with shoddy camera equipment they have managed to catch video footage of spirits playing hide and seek.

OR

2) Purposely using shoddy camera equipment they are trying to fool you in to believing the Yarborough hotel is haunted as some sort of marketing ploy.

You decide.

The man in the doorway - Pareidolia (A psychological phenomenon that causes us to see shapes, including human figures where there are non) or just one of the "team" stood in the doorway.

Orb - Lens effect caused by dust rising up when disturbed or "investigator" holding up torch just at the right angle so that the shoddy camera equipment (could they not afford anything better? I mean really, if you were looking for ghosts wouldn't you invest in the best affordable piece of gadgetry?) can't see it. Or any number of other explanations.

Man behind chair - Doesn't even need explaining.

Sorry to be a pooper but there are people out there willing to believe this nonsense and it can be damaging.
