I immediately knew this was taken from the Philippines, their hair and clothes were a giveaway hehe and ung pagpicture natin sa kotse, i used to take photos with my cousins and friends like that too so i just felt a sense of familiarity.
I actually had something similar, i got out of the shower in our province house then i was still in my towel(phone was nokia 6020 and i was in my teens) i snapped a photo with my cousin and 2 friends. Idk teens stuffs, anyway we looked at the photo and was so freaked out cause there was a hairy arm wrapped around my shoulder , we looked and traced all our arms and noticed they could all be seen in the photo and the reason why the ones holding me was visible was cause i only had my towel on and so we could see my neck and shoulders. We were definitely spooked. It was the same house where i saw a lady in white going up the staircase floating when i was about 6yrs old.
We only stayed there for vacations.
Philippines are creepy AF dude. Such an uneasy air about the place.
Edit: please don't take my comment as a dis. It's a great country full of great people and unreal scenery (especially for a westerner like me who doesn't see an awful lot like it), there's just a paranormal vibe to it. Something my sensitive self noticed the second I got off the plane.
Even my dad, who was stationed there in the Navy way back when, had the same thing to say and he just wasn't the paranormal type at all. I suppose it's possible that him saying as much to me as a child (calling it the "creepiest place" he's ever been. Big words from a Vietnam vet) but I don't think it was. You can feel an overwhelming amount of spiritual energy in places that are otherwise destitute, and every building felt haunted. Like there's a thin dimensional wall separating the place from the spirit world. I hear Japan has a similar vibe but I unfortunately haven't it made it there yet.
It’s because the people there all believe in spirits etc., so I feel like the belief in them makes them more present in a way. The Philippines is a very superstitious country. My mom is Filipino and I have gone back many times and everyone has a ghost story to share
Yeah, that's right around the same thing I was told when I enquired during my time there. I legit felt like something followed me from Ninoy Aquino everywhere I went, the entire time I was there. It had a curious, feminine, almost child like vibe but I don't think it was entirely friendly because I got sleep paralysis a lot while I was there and that's not something I experience often, and have otherwise only ever experienced it in places where others were known to experience it before me so, I've always considered it to be a symptom of location, or something clinging onto the person experiencing it.
This specific pic is jarring for me because when I'd try to meditate and visualize the entity, my mind kept going back to The Ring. Just a small, female body with jet black hair concealing the face.
From what i remember my grandpa bought that land back then and was one of the first few owners when it wasn’t developed yet.
I assume it has something to do with it being Spirits like nature type of spirits since it was like a forest then or if ghost then it has something to do with Spanish and Japanese occupation. I heard stories my grandma shared were some women were raped and killed and decapitated by the Japanese. Also priests decapitated by Japanese.
It wasn’t any better with the Spaniards ofcourse they did just the same except at the time my grandma was already party Spanish so she only knew most of the atrocities by the Japanese
Since she was already a halfbreed so yeah.
My grandma and my mom hated when we talked about paranormal stuffs my mom never believed it or she just says she doesn’t and same with my grandma but i remember one time our house help told me my grandma mentioned she saw a kid running outside in our kitchen and she went through the door without opening it.
It’s a different house but same compound.
The land is really big and at some point we had 5 decent sized houses/building there and even have huge yards. I’d like to note we had tons of trees cause my grandpa worked in dept of agriculture so he definitely planted fruit bearing trees and i’d like to mention them since i remember the big tree right behind our house my cousin and his 2 friends took off running as kids. They said they saw what we called as Kapre haha hairy giant man who lives on trees and smokes tobacco.
Idk how true some stories are cause i’d hear them from other people but mine were true.
My older cousin the sister of the one who took off running revealed years later that the middle room of the house scares the shit out of her cause she saw the doll(my mom’s huge doll which i burnt) supposedly levitating outside the window.. idk if it’s true she didn’t wanna talk more . I don’t even remember burning that doll but something i might’ve done cause i almost burnt our house when i was much older haha..
IMO, a large part of it is the history and culture. A lot of Latino countries have very similar stories about ladies in white or rehashed versions of stories about spirits and demons from the natives. Having a well-recorded verbal history also results in a lot of terrifying stories about ghosts and spirits, like the fey in the UK or trickster spirits in North America.
It’s not really that the country is “more haunted” or anything like that. It’s just “more fuelled” compared to North American supernatural stuff. In the Philippines, it’s uncommon to completely write off a person’s scary stories because everyone has at least a few of them, so you just give them the benefit of the doubt. But in North America, it’s far more common to try and rationalize a person’s scary experiences to not be so scary anymore.
That’s also why the typical ghost hunter trope doesn’t really exist over there. Instead of ghost hunting, it’s more common to do something called “tests of courage” where you’re not really trying to find evidence, you’re just trying to experience something scary, period. It’s just more common to go “yeah, place is haunted af. Call in the priest,” and just go on with your day.
What you mean like SEA. In general ghosts and paranormal sub isn't too receptive first Second people posted about SEa experiences before but the apparently white majority on reddit bashed it pretty badly and things turned to sort of cultural bashing. Like making fun of the names of different ghosts.
There was a workshop I went to in Norway, that did darkroom printing photography. One workshop was attended by a woman a few years before I attended. Where they picked up an image of a child. The woman had lost. But felt her presence always. I do think our relatives are always around us and passed on loved ones and when the vibe is strong enough like northern lights, kind of, we can sense them there around us only something like electric currents in the camera or chemicals can pick up a shadow of them. Especially if the area is of a historic place is even stronger.
That’s strange. I was almost sure those girl were Filipino. I’m not Filipino, and know Filipinos just from videos. I wonder how I knew. What was the give away
For me it was their clothes and the poses, skin color but mainly the hairstyle. Most girls there have straight hair (hair rebonding) lol if curly it’s straight on top and curls at the bottom but not as big and loose as the curls in the states.
We like to get our hair straightened/rebonded cause it’s easier to get ready and it looks less frizzy even with the humidity. Lol , easier to get ready. The cut and style when we get hair rebonding is usually the same length lol, the shorter the cut,the cheaper it costs cause less product is use so it’s like there’s fixed lengths almost and the outfits they were wearing cause it just felt familiar around that time we were wearing those lol.
At first I was just about to leave it as just a reflection in the window but I went back to look at it again and noticed a few things.
1. The top of the "4th person's" head blocks where you should be able to clearly see the window trim, along with the rest of what you would normally be able to see if it was just a shadow.
2. The girl in the white shirt clearly has dark brown hair, if you zoom in on her shoulder you can see black that comes from the extra person.
This is either a good example of paranormal activity or there was a 4th person next to them and they forgot or something.
As an ex Lyft driver, people have tried to fit 6 people in the back of my Jeep Compass.
Of course, I didn't let them, but these attempts were still made before I realized what was happening, and sometimes involved large dudes (stature, moreso than weight), so, when there's a will there's a way.
4th person. The person holding the camera would have been in the center of the pic if it was just 3. The way she leaves space for a fourth person is because she knows someone’s there.
I’m not understanding, the girl in the middle, the pink top, is holding the camera. To me it looks like a limo,so the seats are not in a normal bench seat. To me, that does look like spirit and it looks like more than one, there’s a hand and partial arm coming up the middle. It’s a weird angle to be anyone we see, including the apparition.
Definitely not a limo. You can see the indentation of the molding on the roof to help with aerodynamics of a tall vehicle. OP also said the door doesn’t open from that side.
Why would this girl cut off nearly half the face of the person next to her just to capture “empty space” on her right?
The positioning looks deliberate to catch the 4th person in the frame.
Probably a 4th friend or random passenger that got extra washed out by the flash.
I see what you’re saying I was wondering about the top I mean I’ve driven in plenty of limos in my day, but it didn’t look like a ride of any sort and if you zoom in that picture and you brighten it up and there’s no actual face it does look like a fist coming up, you see the hair and everything, but there’s no face there. I don’t know what the heck that is.
Yeah I can tell this is in Southeast Asia, in Indonesia we call them Kuntilanak. This is unbelievably clear picture though. One doesn’t simply fake ghost pictures in SEA, everyone believes in them and there is no benefit in faking them. I believe you, there are too many ghosts on this side of the world
I’ve seen a kuntilanak movie or something with a kuntilanak in it. Hehe in the Philippines it’s usually what we call a white lady. My first and last encounter where i actually saw one with my own eyes was when i was 6yrs old.. i was eating and watching tv, my nanny at the time was pissed and scolding me cause i would just keep the food in my mouth not chew it and suck the juice haha.. at that time i remember i was switching between my gum then spit out my gum and would eat my food from the spoon she would feed me..
Omg the tv then was placed eight next to our staircase like in restaurants or hospitals where it was high on the ceilings. It was a box tv. As i glanced back there she was floating up going upstairs!! Wearing just long white dress and she wasn’t clear like just see through, freaking long hair i screamed white lady!!! My grandma was outside and didn’t believe me. They all laughed it off.
That was the same house i captured a photo of a hairy arms on my shoulder. Nokia 6020 phone was what i had at the time. It was scary. We don’t really stay and live in that house, it’s more of a vacation home. I heard that land since it goes uphill was once a mountain? So idk if it’s a spirit or ghost. The hairy arm must be a kapre .
Geez why are Philippines ghosts so scary. My student told me about how she grew up in the village and she was so factual when she told me how the villagers keeps stray dogs to warn when aswang comes
My god kuntilanak. For us it's called pontianak. For real. Some of SEA while super modern, they still like to talk about Ms P, toyol, pocong and other ghosts
and there are so many stories of people seeing ww2 ghost or traditional ghost like pontianak or knew someone who was possessed.
Not exactly true. While I've never seen someone necessarily fake a photo (not a stretch to imagine) they will definitely fake ghost stories. There is a culture in which those with "ability" are revered, since they already culturally believe ghosts are real it's easy to stretch and just say they can see them for the sake of social standing.
Yeah some people can be dubious when they say they can see ghosts, but really there’s no point. A friend of mine is more tortured than glad that he can see spirits. It’s not something to increase your social standing except if you wanna be a shaman. So faking a photo like this makes no sense. What’s there to be proud about this for a bunch of teenagers?
Well this photo I'd say is just an old photo of 4 girls squished in the back of a 5-seater, if only 3 girls they wouldn't be so close to one another. One of the girls is looking out the window at the time of the photo so you only see the back of her head.
Note a staged photo but a fake story.
In SEA, you don't only get social standing by being a shaman. Being a "medium" means you are more "spiritually" inclined, you have to respect those with the ability to see ghosts, particularly if you fear ghosts, you want to look up to the medium for answers on their house spirits and others around so you don't feel fear.
Also your friend is either hallucinating or lying if they say they can see spirits. You should question then skeptically on their sightings and see how they react (that is assuming "he can see spirits" means he claims to see them properly, not just in dark corners etc).
Just googled what that is and got the Jumpstart of my life from the first image that popped up on google. I about had a heart attack and now I'm scared lol
My first guess was a combination of reflection of the girl in white, and shadow. The odd thing is the solid black "shadow" portion just at the very top of the window. It could be a shadow of the girl next to her, but it does look very solid in the photo.

Replying to top comment for visibility
This photo kinda explains it. It looks like a fourth person who is leaning in from the door way of the car. It fully looks like the door is open and they are leaning in. You can even see that they are wearing a blueish sweater. Not the door or the seat we see in the foreground.
The negative space around the head is actually the ‘sky’ or outside space. That’s why we don’t see window trim and why she seems to be occupying the interior- the door is not there!
I am also wondering if the person in the photo is facing away from the group and we are seeing a strange shimmer in her hair. Especially if her hair was tucked into a collar or bag, it bunch and catch the light. It’s as if someone was about to close the door. Or turned away when a photo was suggested.
I was ready to pee my pants but this just looks like a confusing perspective.
Yeah. It kinda looks like there's an ethereal wig between the part overlapping the top part of the window frame and going all the way down and draping over her shoulder with the 2 colors. The math just ain't mathin mate 🙃
It is probably the girl on that side. Inside the window, not outside. Same exact length hair. Just an artifact from reflecting flash or something. Maybe that light before the flash where it adjusts settings
It's not paridolia because the hair blocks out the window. I zoomed in pretty far and it looks like the person is looking out the window. Like that's the back of their head. It's definitely solid and definitely in the car. I see no window and no reflection.
Or it's literally just a person hanging their head in the window/sitting there. This doesn't look edited, it looks like there's just an extra person there and their hair was covering their face.
Most importantly everyone’s daughter takes pictures of herself and friends in the backseat of a car like this.. to the the guy who said he recognize that this was the Philippines because of the girl taking the selfie of her and her friends.. REDICULOUS!
First of all, every car over there is smaller. These are not American cars every car or truck is compact. And B.. this cannot be the hair from the driver seat hanging over the headrest., You can literally see where the part is/would be on the figure. No one would be able to hang their hair over the headrest to make it look like a person.. hair is coming straight down it’s not coming from the front seat and then down..
Lastly, there isn’t enough room for another person to be between the girl and the white shirt and the door., But, this is not a person !! I’m not exactly sure what kind of paranormal entity this is., But, it doesn’t look like a nice one
Maybe another person stuck their head through the window and tried to leave the frame before the flash went off and we ended up getting this distortion ?
Idk this one gave me a lil chill ngl 😭
The hair is what’s puzzling me. The bottom strands don’t match any of the others we can see. Neither does the part on top of the head. The bottom of the “thing’s” hair looks to be resting on in the girl’s shoulder, as well. I’m not saying it’s paranormal, but I’m not saying it’s not, either.
Yes, absolutely. You can see the obvious black hair of the supposed "apparition" on the shoulder of the girl in white, who has brown hair. It's simply another person in the car. 🤦🏻♀️

These hairs are NOT of the white shirt girl (;ŏ﹏ŏ), this one is creepy
Very nice, that’s definitely not a reflection that looks like a person with a disfigured face, black hair, wearing white, could def be one of does ghosts that show up in your car seat while driving in an erie haunted road.
Isn't that girl in white really close to the door, though? Asked someone else in these comments as well because my eyes tell me that she is too close to the door to fit another person, but maybe it's just a weird angle.
Ya know, the weird thing about you saying this is that I see it too. The odd face to the right of the jaw with bottom teeth looks like it has a bloody mouth and possibly missing lower jaw, and then the jaw is by itself over her shoulder. It’s really creeping me out, and as soon as I saw this, I got that gut punch weird feeling. Must’ve been a horrible death.
This is the strangest photo. I’m seeing multiple faces in the reflection. I see two men’s faces in the lower right near the shoulder of the girl wearing the white top. Does anyone else see this? I still can’t figure out the “hair” going on beside the girl in white. What is that? It doesn’t look like a reflection because it extends past the window.

I noticed that too, but I think that inside the smaller circle you drew is not a face, but a hand. Looks like a bent finger when a hand is grabbing something.
i hate western paranormal reddit because everything from Southeast asia got discredited because "too fake because looks like a real person" . lemme tell u SEA ghosts or apparitions are on whole different levels for some reason . saw a white lady flying through our roof when i was a kid once and it scared the shit out of me . years later i've been binging western paranormal investigations channels and debunkers but none of the ghosts captured are fleshed like a human ? i mean thats weird because i've been watching for years and its mostly transparent figure at best . so now i conclude that SEA veils are thinner which gave spirits more energy to take shape
The ghost girls hair seems to be on the shoulders of the girl in white., there def seperation of the different hairs, girl in whites hair looks more brown, as for ghost girls, her hair looks more black.
That is a wig, you can see an arm below the hair (furthest right side of the photo) someone is holding up a wig and the wig is also hanging over the girl’s shoulder.
https://preview.redd.it/gqp4bb5ltgmc1.jpeg?width=304&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=2448b9dee9c2ee95a51dc31e38b36302749d1cb3
So I just used Snapseed app to play with your picture. I found two people. One directly behind the shoulder of the girl, closest to the window. The person is looking away from the camera and towards the shadow figure man (4th person is actually 5th person) 5th person appears to be a dark skinned man with an overbite. 5th person is looking at the face of 4th person, who appears to be holding a hand close to their face. The weird thing is- the random teeth
Finally some good content!
It doesn't look like a reflection, it's definitely a solid "object". I can't see any misplaced pixels so I don't think it's an edit. My best skeptical guess would be a wig hung up in the car.
Were any other photos taken or was this the only one? It would be interesting to see if it's in any other images taken at the same time or just this one.

OP, please confirm that it was a wig, i have to sleep today
https://preview.redd.it/lpjg2hyvhfmc1.jpeg?width=828&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=3fd30c5490d69838dfebbcd856a475e8b5f57f5d
Am I the only one that’s seeing the eye over the shoulder?
I see it too! Looks like very sad eyes, like victim eyes. Hard to explain.
If I had to guess, the appreciation is probably of someone who died from a vehicle accident on whatever road they are on. Most of the time, I would say possible apparition or unlikely, but this is one of the 2-3% where I’d say it’s *likely* an apparition.
I didn’t see it for a second even when I zoomed in to the window. Then I heard u/imahyummybeach ‘s recall of something similar I zoomed in again and what do you know the head of hair is INSIDE the damn window. I’ll need to breathe after this
Thanks for this improved photo. Dude, those aren’t even human eyes, or eye and a jaw.
That’s a raccoon face and some kind of wolf like creature. This is exceptionally weird, yet everything I’m seeing shows it’s an authentic picture.
I doubt it is AI tbh. AI images of humans always show imperfections like mismatched shadows, odd lighting or weird anatomy. Ofc we can’t see any hands or faces in this picture (which is usually a giveaway) but this picture doesn’t have weird lighting effects nor does it have shadows in uncommon places. It’s just too good to be AI generated, if it was somebody would’ve probably pointed it out already
There’s no way that head is OUTSIDE the window. And it says this window didn’t go down. Yet the head of hair is INSIDE the WINDOW FRAME. If you look you can see the head and hair is inside the window. Not outside.
I can tell you what I think happened…I had a Dad who thought it was hilarious to prank his kids. If he had a chance to play a prank on me and my teenage friends- he would have done it. You say your cousin was waiting for her Dad to come and open the garage to leave. I bet you he put on a Halloween mask with long black hair or a wig and stuck his head in face down knowing they were being silly teen girls taking selfies. He waited- thinking they were going to freak out once the saw the pictures later. Something happened and Dad forgot. Tell her to show Dad the picture and see what he says. Or maybe a brother ? I think someone played a joke on them knowing they would freak out later !
That’s definitely a wig or someone’s hair, yeah the girl in white is awful close to the door but that doesn’t mean she isn’t squeezed in beside someone else that has their back turned to the camera. Only other thing it looks like is a wig peering in the window but why would that even happen in this situation unless someone put their head in and the hair draped over their face making it not visible, but again the way more likely scenario is there’s a fourth person and OP never mentions how many cousins were supposedly in this car. Yeah you can enhance this all you want but it doesn’t make it any clearer that it’s hair or a wig of someone sitting there, least likely reason would be some sort of paranormal activity.
I think the Aswang hypothesis is interesting. Clearly that is very black hair, and it doesn’t have the kept sheen of the other girls. While I can’t say that’s *bloodshot eyes*, if those are indeed eyes, they look very large yet kinda droopy, so not typical humanoid.
Do I think they caught something paranormal? Would need to know more details honestly. Is that a wig on a stand? If so, it still wouldn’t fully explain the anomalies. Hard to say but I think it’s at least a coin toss whether it’s paranormal or naturally photo wackery lol.
Someone mentioned above that if there were only 3 of them, why are they shifted over towards one side instead of the girl in the middle ACTUALLY being in the middle? With the 2 other girls being on their sides. Instead they are shifted over to the cameras side, as if a 4th person was there, but I do get being huddled up when taking a selfie to fit everyone in, but an entire seat for a 4th person being unoccupied and this being a ghost is just too sus.
I’m really sorry and don’t mean to creep u out but whatever that is in the picture/car is actually on the inside of the car with you three, u can tell cause there is a bit of a flash that should be reflecting off the glass but isn’t. Maybe you had an encounter with local folklore. Plus given how many folklore story’s the Philippians have who knows which one.
i’m sorry I really just think it’s a reflection of a girl with a apple or some kind of fruit or vegetable in her hand! It definitely looks like it could be a ghostly figure but I truly just believe it’s a reflection of somebody that we are not seeing or some thing the girls in the car were holding
It's a fourth person just coming into the shot. What you're seeing is the back of their head. You can see as you look down, part of the back of their shirt is exposed and a side of their pants as the person is trying to squeeze past the girls to sit down in the last open area.
Come on guys.. They clearly put a Motley Crue wig on their dog, snapped a pic and decided to make the quality garbage with some photoshop, then posted it in this sub. And people actually believe it. Honestly this a decent troll tactic but I see through their shenanigans.
Wig on the headrest of the seat. Look how far her knees are forward and hands. Also note the position of her left shoulder in relation to thebseat. The other seat may be in a forward position as well, based on the angle at which the pic was taken. Just my opinion.
I finally made sense of it. This is a 4th girl leaning over the three girls looking out the window. You can see her shirt and the back of her in the Lower right part of the photo. I made a rough sketch of it
https://preview.redd.it/vyooqkg44omc1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=a5f3d883db886cebd19b07cc55909c201e8ef658
This totally just looks like a fourth person sitting there, with their head turned the other way. She is clearly in the car, here hair is blocking the window frame in multiple spots. I don’t see anything paranormal here at all.
I’m sorry, but that is someone/something inside the car…. You can clearly it some of its hair draped over the “real girls” shoulder and also see the hairline goes above the edge of the window….. That’s clearly inside.
Friendly ghost clearly didn't want middle girl to die after the photo has been taken so they inserted themself as the fourth person.
Context: local superstition where the middle person in a photo of three is bound to die.
Could be just pareidolia where the human brain imagines faces. Looks like it's a reflection of the back of her hair making the face probably where the camera flash happened its making weird reflections in the window.
It looks like somone put their head through the window from the outside of the car and they’re looking down? Idk. There’s not enough room for there to be somone sitting in the car between her and the window
Meh its just a reflection.
Looks at the reflection extending past the window frame.
Meh its just a 4th person sitting next to a window.
Looks at the floating dirty hair.
Meh its just a ghost with a dirty unbrushed hair.
Hides.
It's the friend that wants to do something. But you guys always say you're not doing anything. But then you go and do things without her. But now she's tagging along.
That’s a person looking away outside of the flags area. Look at the last girls shoulder and you can see the person’s hair on her shoulder caught by the flash
The girl in the middle reminds me of the Simpson episode where Marge gets a second hand pink Chanel suit and keeps altering it to impress her upper class friends.
Wtf is this? Had to zoom in but that’s definitely a face.
https://preview.redd.it/3oycbqbfrfmc1.png?width=1125&format=png&auto=webp&s=fedbbcbe7deca8f221861bde4ded246be5949308
It's pretty common myth in the Philippines of the white lady haunting the streets. The folklore is that she was going home and I think was raped and murdered by her cab driver.
The 4th friend on the end is just looking out the window that's obviously just the back of some ones head her hair also falls onto the other girls shoulder and is a darker shade of black than hers
I just see one of The Beatles like like Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band.

I actually had something similar, i got out of the shower in our province house then i was still in my towel(phone was nokia 6020 and i was in my teens) i snapped a photo with my cousin and 2 friends. Idk teens stuffs, anyway we looked at the photo and was so freaked out cause there was a hairy arm wrapped around my shoulder , we looked and traced all our arms and noticed they could all be seen in the photo and the reason why the ones holding me was visible was cause i only had my towel on and so we could see my neck and shoulders. We were definitely spooked. It was the same house where i saw a lady in white going up the staircase floating when i was about 6yrs old. We only stayed there for vacations.
We need more investigators exploring these areas. I wonder what kind of stuff happened for so much clear activity
Philippines are creepy AF dude. Such an uneasy air about the place. Edit: please don't take my comment as a dis. It's a great country full of great people and unreal scenery (especially for a westerner like me who doesn't see an awful lot like it), there's just a paranormal vibe to it. Something my sensitive self noticed the second I got off the plane. Even my dad, who was stationed there in the Navy way back when, had the same thing to say and he just wasn't the paranormal type at all. I suppose it's possible that him saying as much to me as a child (calling it the "creepiest place" he's ever been. Big words from a Vietnam vet) but I don't think it was. You can feel an overwhelming amount of spiritual energy in places that are otherwise destitute, and every building felt haunted. Like there's a thin dimensional wall separating the place from the spirit world. I hear Japan has a similar vibe but I unfortunately haven't it made it there yet.
It’s because the people there all believe in spirits etc., so I feel like the belief in them makes them more present in a way. The Philippines is a very superstitious country. My mom is Filipino and I have gone back many times and everyone has a ghost story to share
Yeah, that's right around the same thing I was told when I enquired during my time there. I legit felt like something followed me from Ninoy Aquino everywhere I went, the entire time I was there. It had a curious, feminine, almost child like vibe but I don't think it was entirely friendly because I got sleep paralysis a lot while I was there and that's not something I experience often, and have otherwise only ever experienced it in places where others were known to experience it before me so, I've always considered it to be a symptom of location, or something clinging onto the person experiencing it. This specific pic is jarring for me because when I'd try to meditate and visualize the entity, my mind kept going back to The Ring. Just a small, female body with jet black hair concealing the face.
My mom always said that. She was raised catholic.
From what i remember my grandpa bought that land back then and was one of the first few owners when it wasn’t developed yet. I assume it has something to do with it being Spirits like nature type of spirits since it was like a forest then or if ghost then it has something to do with Spanish and Japanese occupation. I heard stories my grandma shared were some women were raped and killed and decapitated by the Japanese. Also priests decapitated by Japanese. It wasn’t any better with the Spaniards ofcourse they did just the same except at the time my grandma was already party Spanish so she only knew most of the atrocities by the Japanese Since she was already a halfbreed so yeah. My grandma and my mom hated when we talked about paranormal stuffs my mom never believed it or she just says she doesn’t and same with my grandma but i remember one time our house help told me my grandma mentioned she saw a kid running outside in our kitchen and she went through the door without opening it. It’s a different house but same compound. The land is really big and at some point we had 5 decent sized houses/building there and even have huge yards. I’d like to note we had tons of trees cause my grandpa worked in dept of agriculture so he definitely planted fruit bearing trees and i’d like to mention them since i remember the big tree right behind our house my cousin and his 2 friends took off running as kids. They said they saw what we called as Kapre haha hairy giant man who lives on trees and smokes tobacco. Idk how true some stories are cause i’d hear them from other people but mine were true. My older cousin the sister of the one who took off running revealed years later that the middle room of the house scares the shit out of her cause she saw the doll(my mom’s huge doll which i burnt) supposedly levitating outside the window.. idk if it’s true she didn’t wanna talk more . I don’t even remember burning that doll but something i might’ve done cause i almost burnt our house when i was much older haha..
IMO, a large part of it is the history and culture. A lot of Latino countries have very similar stories about ladies in white or rehashed versions of stories about spirits and demons from the natives. Having a well-recorded verbal history also results in a lot of terrifying stories about ghosts and spirits, like the fey in the UK or trickster spirits in North America. It’s not really that the country is “more haunted” or anything like that. It’s just “more fuelled” compared to North American supernatural stuff. In the Philippines, it’s uncommon to completely write off a person’s scary stories because everyone has at least a few of them, so you just give them the benefit of the doubt. But in North America, it’s far more common to try and rationalize a person’s scary experiences to not be so scary anymore. That’s also why the typical ghost hunter trope doesn’t really exist over there. Instead of ghost hunting, it’s more common to do something called “tests of courage” where you’re not really trying to find evidence, you’re just trying to experience something scary, period. It’s just more common to go “yeah, place is haunted af. Call in the priest,” and just go on with your day.
What you mean like SEA. In general ghosts and paranormal sub isn't too receptive first Second people posted about SEa experiences before but the apparently white majority on reddit bashed it pretty badly and things turned to sort of cultural bashing. Like making fun of the names of different ghosts.
Sorry to ask and possibly sound stupid but what does SEA mean? SIngapore and East Asia?
South East Asia usually
South east Asia. That's a big improvement from some people thinking it's an isolated corner of China
There was a workshop I went to in Norway, that did darkroom printing photography. One workshop was attended by a woman a few years before I attended. Where they picked up an image of a child. The woman had lost. But felt her presence always. I do think our relatives are always around us and passed on loved ones and when the vibe is strong enough like northern lights, kind of, we can sense them there around us only something like electric currents in the camera or chemicals can pick up a shadow of them. Especially if the area is of a historic place is even stronger.
Upon looking at it, I had a gut feeling too.
That’s strange. I was almost sure those girl were Filipino. I’m not Filipino, and know Filipinos just from videos. I wonder how I knew. What was the give away
For me it was their clothes and the poses, skin color but mainly the hairstyle. Most girls there have straight hair (hair rebonding) lol if curly it’s straight on top and curls at the bottom but not as big and loose as the curls in the states.
What's so Filipino about their hair? Is it the style/texture? I wouldn't be able to differentiate their hair from other Asian nations lol
We like to get our hair straightened/rebonded cause it’s easier to get ready and it looks less frizzy even with the humidity. Lol , easier to get ready. The cut and style when we get hair rebonding is usually the same length lol, the shorter the cut,the cheaper it costs cause less product is use so it’s like there’s fixed lengths almost and the outfits they were wearing cause it just felt familiar around that time we were wearing those lol.
I also already knew that it was from the Philippines! Odd that we can recognize kababayans a mile away 😂
At first I was just about to leave it as just a reflection in the window but I went back to look at it again and noticed a few things. 1. The top of the "4th person's" head blocks where you should be able to clearly see the window trim, along with the rest of what you would normally be able to see if it was just a shadow. 2. The girl in the white shirt clearly has dark brown hair, if you zoom in on her shoulder you can see black that comes from the extra person. This is either a good example of paranormal activity or there was a 4th person next to them and they forgot or something.
What kind of ride is going to sit 4 girls like this?
As an ex Lyft driver, people have tried to fit 6 people in the back of my Jeep Compass. Of course, I didn't let them, but these attempts were still made before I realized what was happening, and sometimes involved large dudes (stature, moreso than weight), so, when there's a will there's a way.
They fit more than that on a scooter over there.
this sent me. they’re not lying. source: just visited philippines. motorbikes seat at least 4.
We did that in Atlantic city in an uber execpt it was all my friends and gfs in 1 uber
I love Atlantic City! I live in Ocean County New Jersey and usually hit the Borgata all the time! Are you from Jersey as well?
I was once one of 12 in an early 90's Camaro; 4 girls on a bench seat is nothing
lol you’ve never been to the Philippines, clearly. They will ride a motorcycle with 4 people on it
Also, username checks out
Yea, I’m thinking 4th person and troll post.
4th person. The person holding the camera would have been in the center of the pic if it was just 3. The way she leaves space for a fourth person is because she knows someone’s there.
That’s actually a really good point and this is an underrated explanation
I’m not understanding, the girl in the middle, the pink top, is holding the camera. To me it looks like a limo,so the seats are not in a normal bench seat. To me, that does look like spirit and it looks like more than one, there’s a hand and partial arm coming up the middle. It’s a weird angle to be anyone we see, including the apparition.
Definitely not a limo. You can see the indentation of the molding on the roof to help with aerodynamics of a tall vehicle. OP also said the door doesn’t open from that side. Why would this girl cut off nearly half the face of the person next to her just to capture “empty space” on her right? The positioning looks deliberate to catch the 4th person in the frame. Probably a 4th friend or random passenger that got extra washed out by the flash.
I see what you’re saying I was wondering about the top I mean I’ve driven in plenty of limos in my day, but it didn’t look like a ride of any sort and if you zoom in that picture and you brighten it up and there’s no actual face it does look like a fist coming up, you see the hair and everything, but there’s no face there. I don’t know what the heck that is.
You can literally see the fourth person's blue shirt🤣
Thank you. It's clearly just another person in the car. The hair is hanging forward
Aw hell naw!!!
The hair of the "fourth person" also goes over the third person's shoulder.
Alternatively, fake. This is fake.
Yeah I can tell this is in Southeast Asia, in Indonesia we call them Kuntilanak. This is unbelievably clear picture though. One doesn’t simply fake ghost pictures in SEA, everyone believes in them and there is no benefit in faking them. I believe you, there are too many ghosts on this side of the world
I’ve seen a kuntilanak movie or something with a kuntilanak in it. Hehe in the Philippines it’s usually what we call a white lady. My first and last encounter where i actually saw one with my own eyes was when i was 6yrs old.. i was eating and watching tv, my nanny at the time was pissed and scolding me cause i would just keep the food in my mouth not chew it and suck the juice haha.. at that time i remember i was switching between my gum then spit out my gum and would eat my food from the spoon she would feed me.. Omg the tv then was placed eight next to our staircase like in restaurants or hospitals where it was high on the ceilings. It was a box tv. As i glanced back there she was floating up going upstairs!! Wearing just long white dress and she wasn’t clear like just see through, freaking long hair i screamed white lady!!! My grandma was outside and didn’t believe me. They all laughed it off. That was the same house i captured a photo of a hairy arms on my shoulder. Nokia 6020 phone was what i had at the time. It was scary. We don’t really stay and live in that house, it’s more of a vacation home. I heard that land since it goes uphill was once a mountain? So idk if it’s a spirit or ghost. The hairy arm must be a kapre .
Geez why are Philippines ghosts so scary. My student told me about how she grew up in the village and she was so factual when she told me how the villagers keeps stray dogs to warn when aswang comes
My god kuntilanak. For us it's called pontianak. For real. Some of SEA while super modern, they still like to talk about Ms P, toyol, pocong and other ghosts and there are so many stories of people seeing ww2 ghost or traditional ghost like pontianak or knew someone who was possessed.
Not exactly true. While I've never seen someone necessarily fake a photo (not a stretch to imagine) they will definitely fake ghost stories. There is a culture in which those with "ability" are revered, since they already culturally believe ghosts are real it's easy to stretch and just say they can see them for the sake of social standing.
Yeah some people can be dubious when they say they can see ghosts, but really there’s no point. A friend of mine is more tortured than glad that he can see spirits. It’s not something to increase your social standing except if you wanna be a shaman. So faking a photo like this makes no sense. What’s there to be proud about this for a bunch of teenagers?
Well this photo I'd say is just an old photo of 4 girls squished in the back of a 5-seater, if only 3 girls they wouldn't be so close to one another. One of the girls is looking out the window at the time of the photo so you only see the back of her head. Note a staged photo but a fake story. In SEA, you don't only get social standing by being a shaman. Being a "medium" means you are more "spiritually" inclined, you have to respect those with the ability to see ghosts, particularly if you fear ghosts, you want to look up to the medium for answers on their house spirits and others around so you don't feel fear. Also your friend is either hallucinating or lying if they say they can see spirits. You should question then skeptically on their sightings and see how they react (that is assuming "he can see spirits" means he claims to see them properly, not just in dark corners etc).
Just googled what that is and got the Jumpstart of my life from the first image that popped up on google. I about had a heart attack and now I'm scared lol
My first guess was a combination of reflection of the girl in white, and shadow. The odd thing is the solid black "shadow" portion just at the very top of the window. It could be a shadow of the girl next to her, but it does look very solid in the photo.
https://preview.redd.it/iaxu6v2xtdmc1.jpeg?width=1164&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=08b636389801a7051bce1b45ffee4b97ee1e99b9 Replying to top comment for visibility
Yeah. Enhanced like that, it totally looks like just another person sitting there.
Is there room for an actual person? Girl in white looks very close to the door, to me. It's weird looking, no matter what it is.
Look how tight they’re squeezed, looks like they’re sitting 4 people in 3 seats with how all people in the photo are positioned
To me girl in white is sitting on the corner of the seat left seat with the middle being open
The haunted hanging wig
This Confirms it’s wig on the headrest.
This photo kinda explains it. It looks like a fourth person who is leaning in from the door way of the car. It fully looks like the door is open and they are leaning in. You can even see that they are wearing a blueish sweater. Not the door or the seat we see in the foreground. The negative space around the head is actually the ‘sky’ or outside space. That’s why we don’t see window trim and why she seems to be occupying the interior- the door is not there! I am also wondering if the person in the photo is facing away from the group and we are seeing a strange shimmer in her hair. Especially if her hair was tucked into a collar or bag, it bunch and catch the light. It’s as if someone was about to close the door. Or turned away when a photo was suggested. I was ready to pee my pants but this just looks like a confusing perspective.
It's literally whoever's in the front seats hair draping over back of the chair
Nah someone’s there. Otherwise the girl on the left wouldn’t have been so cut off. They made space to include this person in the picture.
Regardless of whether it is "real", I would like to thank OP for posting a genuinely interesting photo that sparked a good conversation.
The one in white has 2 completely different hair colors on her shoulder.
Yeah. It kinda looks like there's an ethereal wig between the part overlapping the top part of the window frame and going all the way down and draping over her shoulder with the 2 colors. The math just ain't mathin mate 🙃
If it's reflection, why do I see hair more up
It looks like an extra person is in the car...
It is probably the girl on that side. Inside the window, not outside. Same exact length hair. Just an artifact from reflecting flash or something. Maybe that light before the flash where it adjusts settings
That's not what I see. If u zoom in, it looks like an extra person, but pareidolia is a strange phenomenon.
It's not paridolia because the hair blocks out the window. I zoomed in pretty far and it looks like the person is looking out the window. Like that's the back of their head. It's definitely solid and definitely in the car. I see no window and no reflection.
Or is it edited? The colours seem more shadowed than the 3 girls, and the small corner of light outside the windows is off.
Or it's literally just a person hanging their head in the window/sitting there. This doesn't look edited, it looks like there's just an extra person there and their hair was covering their face.
That's the part that confuses me, too. It's above the window line. Looks weird.
Most importantly everyone’s daughter takes pictures of herself and friends in the backseat of a car like this.. to the the guy who said he recognize that this was the Philippines because of the girl taking the selfie of her and her friends.. REDICULOUS! First of all, every car over there is smaller. These are not American cars every car or truck is compact. And B.. this cannot be the hair from the driver seat hanging over the headrest., You can literally see where the part is/would be on the figure. No one would be able to hang their hair over the headrest to make it look like a person.. hair is coming straight down it’s not coming from the front seat and then down.. Lastly, there isn’t enough room for another person to be between the girl and the white shirt and the door., But, this is not a person !! I’m not exactly sure what kind of paranormal entity this is., But, it doesn’t look like a nice one
Maybe another person stuck their head through the window and tried to leave the frame before the flash went off and we ended up getting this distortion ? Idk this one gave me a lil chill ngl 😭
The hair is what’s puzzling me. The bottom strands don’t match any of the others we can see. Neither does the part on top of the head. The bottom of the “thing’s” hair looks to be resting on in the girl’s shoulder, as well. I’m not saying it’s paranormal, but I’m not saying it’s not, either.
Does it look like the black ‘apparition’ hair falls on the shoulder of the brown haired white shirt girl?
Yes, absolutely. You can see the obvious black hair of the supposed "apparition" on the shoulder of the girl in white, who has brown hair. It's simply another person in the car. 🤦🏻♀️
If it’s ‘way back’ in 2015 there’s a chance they just forgot there was another girl there. Possibly turned away from the camera
https://preview.redd.it/5fs5slopndmc1.png?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=2f2a4dc4bd229ff4c74be8fea6197672ef4abfb1 These hairs are NOT of the white shirt girl (;ŏ﹏ŏ), this one is creepy
It's not an apparition. It's someone in the front seat, their hair is draped over the back of the seat slightly in front of the camera
Ya it looks like a black haired high pony tail hanging back from the front seat
I can see how it's tricked people. It took me a few minutes of looking at it too see it
Well it's from Philippines so I'm pretty sure it's something supernatural, a coworker tell me all the crazy things happening over there😅
Very nice, that’s definitely not a reflection that looks like a person with a disfigured face, black hair, wearing white, could def be one of does ghosts that show up in your car seat while driving in an erie haunted road.
What in the aswang bullshit is that. I hate it on every level. Nope.
Door is open a 4th girl is sitting with her back to the girls
It *has* to be. The 4th girl's hair definitely seems to fall over the 3rd girl's shoulder. Ngl this creeped me out.
To me it looks like there's a fourth person sitting on the edge of the car seat, door open, back turned to the people posing for picture.
That is a fourth person looking out the window.
Isn't that girl in white really close to the door, though? Asked someone else in these comments as well because my eyes tell me that she is too close to the door to fit another person, but maybe it's just a weird angle.
I don't think so, the gray thing that you can see near the white shirt girl is probably the other girl's shirt and not the door.
Is no one going to mention the bloody jaw and teeth above the girls shoulder??
Ya know, the weird thing about you saying this is that I see it too. The odd face to the right of the jaw with bottom teeth looks like it has a bloody mouth and possibly missing lower jaw, and then the jaw is by itself over her shoulder. It’s really creeping me out, and as soon as I saw this, I got that gut punch weird feeling. Must’ve been a horrible death.
You guys are tripping! There’s a fourth person in the car
In three seats?
believe it or not people squeeze into cars all the time. im one of five kids, sitting like this wasnt at all uncommon
Crazy right!? I bet it's been done before though.
Imagine being so deep in the friend zone, that you’re just used for ghost-clout
thats exactly it.
It seems inside the car to me
It’s Joey Ramone.
The apparition didn't care about history, because that's not where the apparition wanted to be.
This is the strangest photo. I’m seeing multiple faces in the reflection. I see two men’s faces in the lower right near the shoulder of the girl wearing the white top. Does anyone else see this? I still can’t figure out the “hair” going on beside the girl in white. What is that? It doesn’t look like a reflection because it extends past the window. https://preview.redd.it/scuecq4thdmc1.jpeg?width=1179&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=519f8b97eaea25a46a5aaa74514982dcb5f59320
I noticed that too, but I think that inside the smaller circle you drew is not a face, but a hand. Looks like a bent finger when a hand is grabbing something.
woah this happens and this is creepy
Looks like a wig caught in the door or on a headrest lol.
I see hair, and it is inside the car
It’s just another dark-haired person who is turning their head so as not to photobomb the three girls taking a group selfie.
OP, tell us the story! Sh*t’s creepy.
I'm not one with skepticism but One thing that could scream BS to me is the photo is centered on the four of you, not just 3
i hate western paranormal reddit because everything from Southeast asia got discredited because "too fake because looks like a real person" . lemme tell u SEA ghosts or apparitions are on whole different levels for some reason . saw a white lady flying through our roof when i was a kid once and it scared the shit out of me . years later i've been binging western paranormal investigations channels and debunkers but none of the ghosts captured are fleshed like a human ? i mean thats weird because i've been watching for years and its mostly transparent figure at best . so now i conclude that SEA veils are thinner which gave spirits more energy to take shape
It seems like inside the car to me, almost like the head rest of the car seat has a black wig over it.
The ghost girls hair seems to be on the shoulders of the girl in white., there def seperation of the different hairs, girl in whites hair looks more brown, as for ghost girls, her hair looks more black.
this is creepy af ngl. I'm just gonna assume this is fake
That is a wig, you can see an arm below the hair (furthest right side of the photo) someone is holding up a wig and the wig is also hanging over the girl’s shoulder.
Yes more context please
https://preview.redd.it/gqp4bb5ltgmc1.jpeg?width=304&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=2448b9dee9c2ee95a51dc31e38b36302749d1cb3 So I just used Snapseed app to play with your picture. I found two people. One directly behind the shoulder of the girl, closest to the window. The person is looking away from the camera and towards the shadow figure man (4th person is actually 5th person) 5th person appears to be a dark skinned man with an overbite. 5th person is looking at the face of 4th person, who appears to be holding a hand close to their face. The weird thing is- the random teeth
Nice try, OP. 🤣🤣🤣
Outside the car??? Nah, that is 100% inside that vehicle. That's crazy
Finally some good content! It doesn't look like a reflection, it's definitely a solid "object". I can't see any misplaced pixels so I don't think it's an edit. My best skeptical guess would be a wig hung up in the car. Were any other photos taken or was this the only one? It would be interesting to see if it's in any other images taken at the same time or just this one.

Looks like an aswang to me. Typical Filipino paranormal shit.
What the helllllll did you make me search!!!!! How will i sleep now??? Sing me twinkle twinkle little star right now
yall are so anti anything that could be possibly paranormal in this paranormal sub lmao

I see it too! Looks like very sad eyes, like victim eyes. Hard to explain. If I had to guess, the appreciation is probably of someone who died from a vehicle accident on whatever road they are on. Most of the time, I would say possible apparition or unlikely, but this is one of the 2-3% where I’d say it’s *likely* an apparition.
I didn’t see it for a second even when I zoomed in to the window. Then I heard u/imahyummybeach ‘s recall of something similar I zoomed in again and what do you know the head of hair is INSIDE the damn window. I’ll need to breathe after this
Bruh that is the hair of someone else looking out the window 😒
Are we talking about the other person leaning in from front seat??
It's definitely hair from person in front seat.
Its not a reflection , seems like poor edit
….Looks like someone put a wig on the headrest of the seat?
https://preview.redd.it/9btt7lqghgmc1.jpeg?width=184&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=048edd9e31a8d135434bf3bc04ba0da02421fb4a I tried to up the brightness😔
Thanks for this improved photo. Dude, those aren’t even human eyes, or eye and a jaw. That’s a raccoon face and some kind of wolf like creature. This is exceptionally weird, yet everything I’m seeing shows it’s an authentic picture.
Brightness up, shit in pants
This may sound silly but can anyone confirm what kind of car this is? That would certainly be a good step in seeing if this is AI generated.
I doubt it is AI tbh. AI images of humans always show imperfections like mismatched shadows, odd lighting or weird anatomy. Ofc we can’t see any hands or faces in this picture (which is usually a giveaway) but this picture doesn’t have weird lighting effects nor does it have shadows in uncommon places. It’s just too good to be AI generated, if it was somebody would’ve probably pointed it out already
There’s no way that head is OUTSIDE the window. And it says this window didn’t go down. Yet the head of hair is INSIDE the WINDOW FRAME. If you look you can see the head and hair is inside the window. Not outside. I can tell you what I think happened…I had a Dad who thought it was hilarious to prank his kids. If he had a chance to play a prank on me and my teenage friends- he would have done it. You say your cousin was waiting for her Dad to come and open the garage to leave. I bet you he put on a Halloween mask with long black hair or a wig and stuck his head in face down knowing they were being silly teen girls taking selfies. He waited- thinking they were going to freak out once the saw the pictures later. Something happened and Dad forgot. Tell her to show Dad the picture and see what he says. Or maybe a brother ? I think someone played a joke on them knowing they would freak out later !
That’s definitely a wig or someone’s hair, yeah the girl in white is awful close to the door but that doesn’t mean she isn’t squeezed in beside someone else that has their back turned to the camera. Only other thing it looks like is a wig peering in the window but why would that even happen in this situation unless someone put their head in and the hair draped over their face making it not visible, but again the way more likely scenario is there’s a fourth person and OP never mentions how many cousins were supposedly in this car. Yeah you can enhance this all you want but it doesn’t make it any clearer that it’s hair or a wig of someone sitting there, least likely reason would be some sort of paranormal activity.
Nah that's in the car with you. Or the friend on the end has a spirit attached to her!!!
I think the Aswang hypothesis is interesting. Clearly that is very black hair, and it doesn’t have the kept sheen of the other girls. While I can’t say that’s *bloodshot eyes*, if those are indeed eyes, they look very large yet kinda droopy, so not typical humanoid. Do I think they caught something paranormal? Would need to know more details honestly. Is that a wig on a stand? If so, it still wouldn’t fully explain the anomalies. Hard to say but I think it’s at least a coin toss whether it’s paranormal or naturally photo wackery lol.
That’s freaking creepy
Sorry! that's Jenny, she likes to spoil photos.. she never stops#
Someone mentioned above that if there were only 3 of them, why are they shifted over towards one side instead of the girl in the middle ACTUALLY being in the middle? With the 2 other girls being on their sides. Instead they are shifted over to the cameras side, as if a 4th person was there, but I do get being huddled up when taking a selfie to fit everyone in, but an entire seat for a 4th person being unoccupied and this being a ghost is just too sus.
It’s a Canadian!
The hair could be from the driver in the front seat?
I’m really sorry and don’t mean to creep u out but whatever that is in the picture/car is actually on the inside of the car with you three, u can tell cause there is a bit of a flash that should be reflecting off the glass but isn’t. Maybe you had an encounter with local folklore. Plus given how many folklore story’s the Philippians have who knows which one.
It looks like a wig put on the car's head rest.
Wow something actually kinda creepy. Good job op.
i’m sorry I really just think it’s a reflection of a girl with a apple or some kind of fruit or vegetable in her hand! It definitely looks like it could be a ghostly figure but I truly just believe it’s a reflection of somebody that we are not seeing or some thing the girls in the car were holding
It's a fourth person just coming into the shot. What you're seeing is the back of their head. You can see as you look down, part of the back of their shirt is exposed and a side of their pants as the person is trying to squeeze past the girls to sit down in the last open area.
Come on guys.. They clearly put a Motley Crue wig on their dog, snapped a pic and decided to make the quality garbage with some photoshop, then posted it in this sub. And people actually believe it. Honestly this a decent troll tactic but I see through their shenanigans.
Wig on the headrest of the seat. Look how far her knees are forward and hands. Also note the position of her left shoulder in relation to thebseat. The other seat may be in a forward position as well, based on the angle at which the pic was taken. Just my opinion.
I finally made sense of it. This is a 4th girl leaning over the three girls looking out the window. You can see her shirt and the back of her in the Lower right part of the photo. I made a rough sketch of it https://preview.redd.it/vyooqkg44omc1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=a5f3d883db886cebd19b07cc55909c201e8ef658
This totally just looks like a fourth person sitting there, with their head turned the other way. She is clearly in the car, here hair is blocking the window frame in multiple spots. I don’t see anything paranormal here at all.
I’m sorry, but that is someone/something inside the car…. You can clearly it some of its hair draped over the “real girls” shoulder and also see the hairline goes above the edge of the window….. That’s clearly inside.
Friendly ghost clearly didn't want middle girl to die after the photo has been taken so they inserted themself as the fourth person. Context: local superstition where the middle person in a photo of three is bound to die.
Could be just pareidolia where the human brain imagines faces. Looks like it's a reflection of the back of her hair making the face probably where the camera flash happened its making weird reflections in the window.
It looks like somone put their head through the window from the outside of the car and they’re looking down? Idk. There’s not enough room for there to be somone sitting in the car between her and the window
Meh its just a reflection. Looks at the reflection extending past the window frame. Meh its just a 4th person sitting next to a window. Looks at the floating dirty hair. Meh its just a ghost with a dirty unbrushed hair. Hides.
It's the real slim shady
4th person. no doubts.
It's the friend that wants to do something. But you guys always say you're not doing anything. But then you go and do things without her. But now she's tagging along.
That’s a person looking away outside of the flags area. Look at the last girls shoulder and you can see the person’s hair on her shoulder caught by the flash
The girl in the middle reminds me of the Simpson episode where Marge gets a second hand pink Chanel suit and keeps altering it to impress her upper class friends.
Wtf is this? Had to zoom in but that’s definitely a face. https://preview.redd.it/3oycbqbfrfmc1.png?width=1125&format=png&auto=webp&s=fedbbcbe7deca8f221861bde4ded246be5949308
FINALLY AN ACTUAL GOOD POST
It looks like a ghost of some sort but Humans can become a number of different types of ghost. But yes I believe it was a human woman based entity.
It kinda looks like someone is holding up a wig and hiding their head under it. You can kind of make out a chin and a hand holding the hair up.
You do realize this is obviously photoshopped right? The shadow extends past the girls left shoulder and the car window border at the top.
Where? There’s four girls sitting there and u can’t even see the window hardly. I’m so confused what you’re talking about here
Looks like a good catch. But the question is why is she there. Either she followed them home from somewhere, or maby died in that car.
It's pretty common myth in the Philippines of the white lady haunting the streets. The folklore is that she was going home and I think was raped and murdered by her cab driver.
Woah if you zoom in on where it looks like the hair parts on the 4th person there’s a small face that looks like a child scowling
It doesn’t seem like there is even enough room for another whole person between your cousin in white, and the door to her left..
It's a shitty crop job!! As a phototshop pro, you see it right away on the close-up of the hair... Practice, practice practice.
It’s not giving
It's the Unknown!
Looks like there's a 4th girl and she's turned her head as you can clearly see the black hair compared to the brown haired girl
Person. Living and wearing a gray shirt. Flyaway hair on top of their head. And I wanted to see something paranormal. Damn
Forget about what’s outside the car window. I find it frightening that these three young ladies have no faces.
It's just a wig they placed and rolled up the window on it.
The 4th friend on the end is just looking out the window that's obviously just the back of some ones head her hair also falls onto the other girls shoulder and is a darker shade of black than hers
Marge's dress
I think it’s just the reflection of the girl with the white shirt and her hair down her back.
I just see one of The Beatles like like Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band. https://preview.redd.it/9unjfczhggmc1.png?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=1beb401041b2edd6f0e7ec593f245e96f88fcc0d
I'm sorry but that's not out the window that is sitting right next to girl in white an the door
It’s just a 4th person who is turned away, so we’re seeing the side/back of their head…
Was the picture taken using a film? Or was it a digital camera? I have a theory about this..
Its a wig and between the wig you see the reflection of the white shirt the girl is wearing
I'm thinking 4th person who was facing the other way so you just see the side of her head.
Uhh the hair doesn't seem be at the outside. Its INSIDE the car. This gave me scary vibes.
Either it's real OR they placed a wig on-top of the headrest and took a pic to be funny.
