The OK Corral Ghost Photograph

By Crusader1307

 Another strange piece of seemingly unexplained Paranormal "evidence", is submitted with the story of "The Hidden Cowboy". Local Old American Western Enthusiasts of the infamous Town of Tombstone, Arizona (made famous by The Gunfight at The OK Corral) - often dress in Period clothing and reenact the Event to the delight of Visitors. One such Enthusiast in 19 90 wanted his photo took with an old cemetery as his back drop. Upon viewing his photo (taken in Black & White to add to the "feel") - The image of a figure in Period 19th Century clothing was clearly seen RISING from the ground of the cemetery behind him! Thinking another Reenactor had "ruined" his shot, he still showed the photos to his friends. One if which was a Historian. He immediately identified the "Man" in the background ad none other that Ike Clanton (one of the participants of The Gunfight). Clanton apparently was an early Fan of photography and their were many pictures of himself that he had taken. Obviously, the photo was quickly decried as a "publicity stunt" aimed at Tourism. However, the photo, negative and camera were examined by 2 independent groups. NO evidence of trickery was found.
