There's a small skate park near my school that's behind an abandoned building. Yesterday I went there to ride my skateboard and I went up to the building to take some photos.

Doesn't it give you the spooks.
 
Don't mean to be rude but I can't read through all of this thread yet still want to jump in.
My honest to god first defining ambition in the first grades of high school were to be a cryptozoologist.

The school library had all these 50s-70s books on the mysteries of the world and during lunch I'd just pour over these accounts with excitement and a growing urge to be the first to find conclusive proof for one of these legends.


Yeah, I've always found this stuff incredibly interesting. Cryptozology, UFOs, ghosts, alternate history, etc. I don't really believe any of it, but there are things that I've heard/read, and even experienced myself that make me pause and consider. There is an explanation for a lot of things that are somewhere between the mundane and the "wtf". Getting to play around in that grey unknown area is immensely fun.

**** me, if I'd kept at it I could have been one of these guys that gets interviewed during the TLC specials on bigfoot. Totally would have been that guy if I'd have had the luck of being a trust fund baby. :woot:

As it were I've greviously fallen out of touch, last exciting thing I saw was that creepy merman video from youtube.

My father, a very long time ago used to work with someone whose hobby was hunting for bigfoot (he started after supposedly encountering one in the woods). And when I say "hobby", I mean he spent thousands of dollars on tech, countless hours of searching, has found hair samples that have made scientists scratch their heads, and even became friends with Jane Goodall (who is "sure they [Bigfoot] exists").

edit: here's a news article on the guy: http://www.washingtoncitypaper.com/articles/35887/hot-for-creature

I went by the train station that I made a post about in the creepypasta thread for any real life creepypasta events that happened to us. I took some photos of the place while I was walking by it and when I got home, I was looking at the photos on my computer and noticed that there was a green light at one of the upper floors that I didn't see when I took the pictures.

Ghost or Green Lantern ring? You decide.

That's so spooky. Try taking some more photos, see what you come up with.
 
Neither. Sorry to be a debunker:

So there was a somebody else in front of that train station and they were pointing a green laser pointer that only shows up in photos but not to the naked eye?
 
Great rebuttal tacit-ronin-, clearly there is something peculiar about a green dot only showing up in photos but not being seen by the naked eye. That's very spooky actually and it sends shivers down my spine. Do you have many more photographs similar to it?

 
Alright... What the hell did I just walk in to... :cmad:
 
It's a good thing the ghost didn't get the laser pointer in your eyes.

Who says they were in front of the station? They could have been across the street, or up to half a mile away. As for you not seeing the dot at the time, maybe you aren't very observant, or maybe you're just saying that to make it seem spooky, when in fact there is no real reason to see this as a paranormal event.:shr: SyFy channel's Paranormal Files: Fact or Faked probably wouldn't bother investigating those photos, the natural explanation is too obvious. If you want me to believe you photographed a ghost, I'll need more than a green dot on a wall. To paraphrase Professor Hubert Farnsworth: "Show me a free-floating, full-torso ectoplasmic manifestation, or shut the hell up!":argh:
