The Ghost of Lee Harvey Oswald

By Crusader1307

 The name of Lee Harvey Oswald (much the same as John Wilkes Booth), is etched in American Social memory, even to this day. The Assassin of US President John F. Kennedy on November 22, 1963 - both he and the murder has been the subject of much controversy over the years. So when stories of his Spirit haunting the murder scene arose in the 1980s, it was not all together - unusual. Oswald positioned himself on an Upper Floor of The Texas School Depository, armed with a rifle on November 23, 1963 - and fired two aimed shots at the passing Presidential motorcade of John Kennedy. Oswald, an player of the Building had complete access to the building. Fleeing, he escaped to a local Movie Theater, where he was taken into custody. After, questioning he was enroute to City Jail, when a spectator named Jack Ruby, shot Oswald at point blank range with a handgun. Rushed to a nearby Hospital, he died of his wounds.

The School Depository was almost instantly earmarked as a Landmark Monument. Restored, the Floor upon which the crime occurred was sealed in a glass 12-foot high glass cell. Visitors can view the scene pretty much as it appeared that fateful day in November. The window where Oswald shot from is supposedly sealed (and never opened). That is, until 2005. A Tourist to Dealey Plaza and The Building, stopped to take a picture of the Window from where Oswald short from. Later, when he looked at the somewhat "dark" photo, he enhanced it with his computer. The photo clearly showed a "Male figure, wearing a White T-Shirt, staring out of an opened window".

When the Tourist checked later with the Museum, he was told about the "rule" regarding the window. Could it be that Oswald's tormented Spirit is cursed to relive the moment of his infamy.
