A strange picture with almost no story has been circulating for years for years. The secret of who and where it is, as well as what really happened when the girls in Manila and the photo of the ghosts have been done is still not solved.
Many aged analog photos taken from these alleged spirits can be easily explained by the explanation of the double exhibition. But when we entered the digital era and it no longer happens, which then appears in the corners of our photos?
It was a debate about a strange photo that quickly became one of the more notable photos of ghosts in the state-of-the-art era. Girls in Manila and a photo of ghosts have been circulating on most of the best photo lists for decades, but what really happened when it was done? Although the viral image has become, the background of the image, as well as true story, seems more elusive.
The legend behind the photo is that this happened in Eastwood City on Manila in the Philippines in 2003. Two girls in the city at night asked the stranger to take their photos. The camera was with a smartphone or as wise as the phone could be then and being Nokia 7250.
At the time of taking the photo, none of the girls noticed anything strange or the hand that appeared in the picture, grabbing one of the girl's arms.
Now Legend of the Girls in Manila and The Ghost Photo traveled far, and a lot behind the legend has been lost in both time and translation.
Picture investigation
The first posts of the photo were taken in 2003, and the Nokia model with which it was made was also released in 2003, so there is a little chance that the image existed online much longer. That is, if we are to believe that this phone was a actual phone that took the picture.
Although we often do not think about it, digital photos often lose quality when they have been copied and pasted, as well as edited and sent in different places. According to some, they say that the phone could take a better picture than that and it seems that it was manipulated after digitity and online distribution.
There is also a trend of “adding ghost templates” for photos in applications and websites. But despite the similarity with many photos from these applications, you did something like that in 2003, which would be an correct match? Although things look similar, it has not yet found it. Besides, what was the first, applications that do it or the fame of the image of the Spirit?
The secret of the girls in Manila and the photo of the ghosts
When searching for the image, the earliest image publications were removed. Most posts on this subject are tiny letters without many sources and in English. There is very little information about this image in the Philippines, something that you would imagine because it is so often published all over the world. This arises the question, does the picture even from the Philippines and Manila?
Who are the girls in the picture, do they even know about how the photo survived people trying to find the answer to the vague shadow of a third person?
