'I took Polaroid of my friends – then was horrified after looking through photos'

The popularity of taking Polaroid pictures has risen in recent years, as they're an alternative to trying to get the ‘perfect' picture with 20 tries.

When you’re at an event, there’s nothing better than capturing a moment with your pals where you all look and feel fab.

It’s best to take these snaps on a camera where you can’t instantly see what the photo looks like – because there’s always that one friend who wants to try again and again to get their angles perfect.

But with a disposable, or a film camera, you’ve got no choice but to take the photo and carry on with your evening.

Now how would you feel if the picture you and your pals had taken turned out to have something rather spooky in the background?

One woman took to Facebook to share a “suspected ghost” in a pic of her and her mates – and people said it was “well spooky”.

“Hello everyone: I wanted to share this photo to see if anyone could share their expertise. This photo was taken on a Polaroid camera at the Roman baths in Bath.

“Myself and my friends are convinced we have a ghost in our photo? What’s everyone’s thoughts?”

She then shared she’d put an arrow on the picture to make it more obvious which really did look like there was a ghostly figure standing behind them.

The figure looked to have a pale, white face, with hair strewn over it, and it left many cold.

Someone asked: “Were there any statues around?"

Another added: “I think this is another ‘ghost figure’ behind the guy on the right. (I could be wrong)." But others said they thought the same.

“Oh my word that’s scary," one woman commented.

Other comments included: “Yes! You got a ghost," and "Great capture".

While another woman added: "My husband had a psychic experience at the same place."

Some people, however, said: “Nothing, nothing at all."
