My Visit to the cemetery

Over the last few months I've been finding myself in curious situations. This just happens to be one. I don't want to go into detail about my past on how I'm able to sense them however every time I turned around in the cemetery and snapped a picture an orb had shown itself.

Now can someone please explain to me what this red thing thing is on my camera?

These are High Resolution Images. They're in order from which ones I've taken
in 17 you see an orb. However in 18 if you zoom in you see an Orb and a Red pile with a line through it right by the same arch. Below I've Included the original images and a zoomed in shot is included in the thread.

Ive always gone for the orb=dust or some insect of some kind of something the naked eye doesnt see

its just a little too much for me to think orbs are spirits when you have other photos of so called ghosts that are human shaped or mist or outlines

its like you die and for some reason you get assigned a different physical afterlife attribute

i have lots of photos with orbs, but i never got the idea of thinking they were ghosts or paranormal

thats one thing about TAPS that i did like, they were quick to dismiss orbs most of the time

Orbs for right now are besides the point. I'm more worried about the red thing in the picture.

Hmmm... not sure what that might be but,
the orb looks like it has a face in it!

glare from a head stone or statue?

at night with flashes its always hard to say

it looks pretty straight forward shape, nothing out of the ordinary that would explain that its odd looking

its more like what is it kind of thing

IMO i dont think its paranormal as much as glare or something from camera

If you look at the picture in the .rar file DSC00118.JPG. There isn't anything to give a glare... No headstone Only the arch and a pole.

it looks like an eye almost. its most likely something paranormal, because i don't really see how anything in a cemetary could give a glare.

good find

I mean no offence by my amusing comments, its purely that I'm trying to make more light of the situation because at present, NOTHING I can think of can adequately explain it enough to make you feel any better, so I'm giving you my theories and throwing in some comedy too, please don't think I'm taking light of it, unless you're a hoaxer, and then just read the comedy and not the suggestions, thanks!

Looks to me a bit like the top of a face (bald head, very large eyes, perhaps someone of African or Jamaican descent not being racist, but they have that particular trait to their heads). Perhaps its that dude from the Bond movie and you were near the moving gravestone?

No, but that's what it looks like, the top of a head with sunken eyes, it had more facial than 'skull' like attributes, so I would imagine its more ghostly than well, I've actually never seen a ghostly image where the figure is general skeletal in appearance (thats more the realms of daemonic/elemental but I think they're all related anyway).

As to the 'antenna/pole' no idea, my first impression was the helmet of a Tau warrior from Warhammer 40k to be honest, I thought "Oh cool he's about to get his ass kicked by Tau" but its a bit long, unless he's using a wideband receiver.

Perhaps they are seperate entities that merely looked conjoined due to the photo, being they are of the same energy and roughly in the same place (i.e. they are coming NEAR TO YOU/CAMERA). The antenna could be some sort of streak from something moving fast, and the 'head' more a physically manifesting spirit.

On the other hand, they could BOTH be elemental in nature. It'd be good to have some info on the graveyard to be honest - like:

1. Where the hell is it? Country, County.
2. Are there any criminals buried there?
3. Where any dogs or people buried there first (a fairly common occurance in OLD graveyards, particularly in Europe, mostly in the UK where the dog generally became a Bhargest/Shuck and the person became a 'ghostly monk, sometimes called a Knox Monk in older literature - they protected the graveyards after dark from robbers and vandals)
4. Any physical signs from your trip other than that, did you TAKE anything from the graveyard back home that wasn't yours to take? (Never do that, did that once, never again).

Did you have a flashlight with you, or were you just walking around in complete darkness?
How could you see where you were going, from the moonlight?

It was around 8 at night in Chicago. The moonlight seemed to light up the whole cemetery. By the time I got back it was like 9 I believe. I didn't have a flashlight. The Only light I had was the flash of the camera.

Also here are the rest of the pictures.

I'll update the original post.

1)It's
Saint Adalbert Cemetery
Cook County, Illinois in Chicago.

2)I don't know if any criminals were buried there.

3)It seems to be just a big human cemetery. No pet burials. It didn't feel like any pets were there.

4) Didn't take anything back with me other than the pictures.

There's not much I know about it other than it's a Catholic cemetery and a Chicago Bears coach is buried there. However now that I've seen these pictures I want to find out more about it.

Also in another picture I have there is an orb with a red aura or red glow about it.

You need to download the files from the link about. Click Free and then wait the given minutes and enter in the verification code. They're really big files so I don't know where else to put them

You misunderstand the purpose of the burial of the first person or animal - it wasn't intended for their benefit (i.e. a place of rest) but for the graveyards benefit - they 'physically' patrol it after their burial, so it need not have a pet cemetary to have had a dog killed and buried there.

It seems to be more common in the UK and Europe, but I've read some accounts, particularly in those times just after the US was born and therefore mostly full of people from other countries that the custom did occur albeit infrequently, most often the dog was a pet, and the human was a criminal and was killed on-site (hanged usually) then buried, often at the Northern end of the 'yard to watch over it in undeath.

I'll see if I can find any information on the status of your GY as to whether anyone was indeed killed for that purpose.

Okay, I got them, thankx!
It's going to take me a while to examine them but, I will get back to you!
I want to see if I can find anything else!
