Anomalous Orb Light in Cemetery - Anne Carter Lee

A friend suggested that we visit a small family cemetery about an hour away that he said was thought to be haunted by the ghost of Anne Lee Carter. I was dubious at best, especially after finding out that she was no longer even interred that after family members had her exhumed and buried in the family plot back in 1994. I enjoy visiting cemeteries and quite a bit of footage from many different ones located around the state. Needless to say, although a quaint family graveyard, I did not really get that "haunted" vibe. No uneasy feelings. We returned after dark, but due to a mistake I made with camera choices, we left soon after returning. We saw nothing odd at all. It was a week later when I finally loaded the video that I saw something strange in the footage. I put it all together in a little video and posted it on youtube this weekend. Take a look and see if you have a good explanation. I can only say that it is in no way faked and there was absolutely nothing in the cemetery that night that we saw at the time of our visit.

In other words, I'm not claiming it to be a ghost. As far as I am willing to go is to say it is a strange light with some interesting properties. It is fairly bright, but appears to give off no residual light of itself. It remains white even though the night is lit up by red LED light and remains visible after switching to white light.

I'm more than open to suggestions or explanations.

No offense but that's waaaay too much production value for that. I run an investigations team. And you have nothing there. The initial flash appears to be a cheap flashlight or a flashlight running low on power turning on. The white "orb" is an insect which is apparent on magnification, it's actually apparent without. Someone to the right turns on a flashlight with the insect between the lightsource and the stone.

APologies, but we wouldn't even call this evidence.

And if you aren't making any implications of the paranormal why the backstory and all of the production foo foo? Why not just show us the clip? Problem is if you just show the clip then you get an impartial unaffected opinion. The backstory, the music, etc... because you want people to think it's a paranormal occurrence.

YOu wouldn't put all that work into it if you hadn't already formed an opinion and were simply trying to get honest unbiased opinions. I'm sorry but in a ten minute video you wasted about 9 minutes and 30 seconds setting the scene or the mood if you will. And less 15 seconds of footage. That tells you something right there. More time on setting the scene and the mood than the actual event(of which you supposedly don't have an opinion on) tells enough of the story.

Well it's good someone is thinking, just not sure it's that clearly. LOL.

I shot the video and edited it. There is no trickery in the camera work. At least not intentionally.

I'm not a big fan of orb theories. I think most orb photos are simply the by-product of digital cameras. There are plenty of websites that explain the problems with digital cameras and orbs. Point in case, you just don't see orbs in any regularity with film shots.

Digital video doesn't fair much better. Most orb videos are obviously some type of floating organic matter, ie: dust. Or it could be insects which the night vision on most cheap cameras distort. Which brings me to the video I shot. It's not an insect. Come on, surely you can do better than that. No insect is going to glow white illuminated by red LED lighting. Not going to happen. I've already checked with an entomologist and that's not what is in the video.

There is also no flashlight tricks. Watch the video again. There is no "tube of light" that would be apparent if a flashlight had been in use. What is odd about the light in the video is that it does NOT appear to give off any light. It's just there. Nothing around it is illuminated by the white light. Not to mention the fact that the red LED light does not appear to "color" the white light at all.

Now what I'm not sure about... I have not ruled out some type of bad pixel in the camera. I have not been able to replicate the anomalous light with the camera, but until I can confirm or deny with an expert, I cannot say with certainty.

As for the quality and editing, it's what I do. I enjoy it. I also go to a lot of cemeteries. I have lots of footage of cemeteries that I have collected over the years. Everyone needs a hobby. LOL.

Any suggestions for other possibilities to check.
