Recently heard the word Spirit Photography in a Photography Magazine, also known as Ghost Photosgraphy, it’s type of photography technique uesed by photographers to cheat their customer by adding their dead loved ones in thier photographs background as a shadow.

Spirit photography is a type of photography whose primary attempt is to capture images of spiritual entities. It was first used by William H. Mumler in the 1860s. Mumler discovered the technique by accident, after he disovered a second person in a photograph he took of himself, which he found was actually a double exposure. Seeing there was a market for it, Mumler started working as a medium, taking people’s pictures and doctoring the negatives to add lost loved ones into them (mostly using other photographs as basis). Mumler’s fraud was discovered after he put identifiable living Boston residents in the photos as spirits.
