Ghost Orb at Schoolhouse Cemetery
from the Hollow Hill staff ©2005
Schoolhouse Cemetery, Nashua, NH
31 October 1999, about 8 p.m.
(full-size photo below)Photographer's comments: After my camera refused to work on Halloween night Blood Cemetery in Hollis, I visited Schoolhouse Cemetery in Nashua, NH, to prove to myself that there was nothing wrong with my camera or the film.
Schoolhouse Cemetery never felt very haunted. I've heard no local tales about it. Frankly, it's on busy Daniel Webster highway, across the street from Bickford's, with a large apartment complex in back of it.
Generally, I stay out of it to because I'm concerned about the living, not the dead who might be there. The cemetery has no light in it at all. The deeper you go into it, the creepier it gets. But I can't say that it's a really "haunted" feeling--just creepy.
On Halloween night, the highway was nearly deserted. I knew I could take these photos at the entrance to the cemetery, without risking intrusion, flares, or reflections from apartment or shopping center lights. As you can see from the photos, it was very dark that night.
The orb on the right took me by surprise when I picked up my prints. When I show my "ghost photos" and negatives, this is the one that impresses most professional photographers.
As usual, these two photos were taken within seconds of each other from the same location.
The schoolhouse is boarded up. There are many headstones in the cemetery, but only one shows in the photo.
Camera: Olympus AF-1, point-and-shoot
Film type: Kodak Gold ASA 800 color film, 35mm
Negative shows: Same image. No splash of chemicals, no marks on the negative.
