Wildland: Rock Video Ghost

When the Australia Band, Wildland, filmed a music video for their title song Wildland, something unnerving and creepy was discovered, while the video was being edited.

In 1990, the band had spent the day filming this video in the remote ghost town of Glen Davis, in New South Wales.

From 1939 to 1952, the National Oil Proprietary Limited extracted oil in this area. The facility was not the safest. Long work hours led to fatigue, and faulty equipment that was salvaged caused many workmen’s deaths.

The day of the shoot the weather was rainy and bleak, all the members of the band and camera crew, all stated that the atmosphere at this location had an otherworldly or eerie feel to it.

On the day of filming, this ghost town was deserted, except for the band and their film crew. But the group discovered later, while watching what they shot, that a ghostly figure appears leaning against a concrete pillar.

It is faceless, wears a dark overcoat, and a hat, and at one point on the video, it seems as if its head is detached from the rest of its body.

After this strange sight was discovered, the band and crew, meticulously accounted for the whereabouts of everyone while this scene was shot. After viewing the video--no one could identify this mysterious figure.

None of them saw this figure during the shoot.

Still shot with a closeup.

The town’s historian, who lived there as a child, thinks this ghost may be a miner who was killed. His body was washed downstream, to the spot where the figure appears in the film.

Another possibility is the figure is the spirit of a priest who committed suicide near the deserted machine shop, where the video was filmed. Could the dark clothes seen on this figure be the dark robes of a priest?

Historical Museum Ghosts: Caught on Camera?

The following two stories have gotten attention in recent years. The first claims a ghost was caught on museum security cameras in Utah the second was a digital photo taken in a museum in Pennsylvania.

The first capture occurred in October of 2007 at a Pioneer Memorial Museum in Salt Lake City, Utah.

Late one night when the museum was dark security officers noticed what appeared to be a woman’s face on their security video cameras.

When this image moved, they became concerned an intruder was in the building—they called in the Highway Patrol to investigate.

When these officers arrived the image on the screens slowly faded—it had remained on the screens for several minutes. The police found no one in the museum. But this story did not end here.

Three more times over the next seven days various museum employees spotted this female face on the security videos. The camera lenses were cleaned and items where shifted but this image continued to appear.

At the end of this week it was seen for the last time.

Some state the image seen was just a reflection in glass that the cameras picked up. But it was recorded in various rooms and even more compelling it changed positions.

So was this a ghost?

The second image was captured in 2014 on a digital camera.

A Civil War re-enactor and his brother were visiting the Gettysburg National Military Park Museum when a friend snapped a photo of them in one room.

He captured a fuzzy out-of-focus figure that looks odd.

It should be noted the three visitors claim they were the only three in the room at the time this photo was taken.

The photographer stated, “The coat the figure wears had an old fashioned rain flap and it is wearing high gloves. There appears to be a sword on the figures left side.”

It was also noted the figure’s feet appeared odd.

This photo has been shared multiple times on reddit and Pinterest.

Skeptics state this is just another re-enactor but the visitors insist they were the only three in the room.
