A mother posted a spooky photo of her son, who was photobombed by the face of a ‘ghost girl’ while visiting a playground.
Ayesha Wilson-Bent, 36, recently shared a haunting photo of her son, Gabriel Ashmore.
The photo captures his younger brother, Kristian Ashmore, being photobombed by what appears to be the face of a ghost girl during a visit to a playground.
A mother shared a picture of her son encountering a ghost.
On July 26, Ayesha was at home when Gabriel sent her a picture of 12-year-old Kristian.
The photo showed Kristian smiling inside a tower of tires.
That evening, while reviewing the photos, Kristian noticed what he thought was a cobweb near his head.
Upon brightening the image and zooming in, Kristian’s stomach dropped.
He discovered the distinct face of a young girl looming over his shoulder.
A mother’s initial skepticism about a ghostly encounter.
Initially, Ayesha was wary of the photo’s authenticity.
She questioned both boys about any possible edits they might have made.
Kristian and Gabriel insisted they hadn’t altered the photo.
Ayesha decided to investigate herself but failed to replicate the effect using editing software.
Kristian was so frightened by the discovery that he refused to sleep alone.
He ended up spending the night in his mother’s room.
After the initial shock wore off, Ayesha and her family became intrigued by the supernatural image.
She joked that she hoped Kristian hadn’t “brought something home” with him.
The photo gained traction on social media, igniting a spirited debate.
Some users believed in its authenticity, while others dismissed it as an amateur editing job.
Ayesha’s reflections on a ghostly picture.
Ayesha expressed her belief in ghosts but admitted to being skeptical at first.
She explained, “I asked them if they added the face on Photoshop. They were adamant they hadn’t.”
Ayesha checked the timestamps of the photo.
She found that it was sent to her just seconds after it was taken, leaving no time for editing.
The picture was captured while the boys played next to tires in the playground.
Neither boy noticed anything unusual until that evening.
When Kristian zoomed in on the photo, he thought he saw a cobweb. He ran to his mother, exclaiming, “Mum, look at this!” Initially, Ayesha didn’t see anything strange and thought the boys were playing a prank. However, after a closer look, she exclaimed, “Oh my gosh, there is something there.”
Kristian’s fear was palpable, leading him to sleep in Ayesha’s room that night.
Social media creation
More than a week later, the family now views the spooky photo with excitement.
Ayesha shared, “We find the picture more exciting than scary. It’s a rare catch.” They feel a sense of wonder at capturing the unexpected moment.
Ayesha has shared the photo in various Facebook groups, receiving mixed reactions.
Some commenters believe the image is real, while others insist it’s a product of editing.
Others suggested that Ayesha’s photo was the result of amateur editing after skeptics dismissed it.
One person said: Photoshopped in The orphan but failed to photoshop out his bogey. The bogeyman def real!
A second wrote: Don’t you get tyred of these failed photoshopped ‘spooks’?
Another added: That’s Greta Thunberg, no wonder she looks angry being in all those environmentally unfriendly tires.
Someone else said: Listen f at lad no one is falling for it, perhaps spend time on photo trickery downsizing your f at belly & face .
The “ghost girl” photo has sparked intrigue and skepticism in equal measure.
Ayesha’s family has shifted from fear to excitement over their supernatural experience.
The debate surrounding the authenticity of the image continues to captivate those who encounter it.
