Fake Paranormal Images Are Not A New Thing

April 10, 2014 By Jim Harold

“Spirit” pictures were extremely popular and extremely fake during the early history of photography.  If you think that paranormal fraudsters are a new thing, think again.  The linked article below from Slate does a nice job of profiling two charlatans who practiced the fraudulent fad that lasted for decades.  Does this mean all ghost photos are fakes?  Certainly not.  Should we be careful?  Absolutely.
