For years, every time someone claimed to come forward with "images of ghosts" or "haunting spirits", it was some crazy whack job, or the image was so poor that it could be a christmas bulb's reflection on the lens of the camera.
Except that at Hampton Court Palace in Surrey, just outside London, they got a decent shot. Someone kept leaving the fire-doors open in one section of the palace, so the security crew scanned back into the archives of the security tapes, looking to see who they should yell at.
It looks like the culprit might have died a couple hundred years ago.
What makes this story believeable are the details... it wasn't like anyone was looking for a ghost, they were just looking for something completely different. The crew -- who usually dress in period costumes -- confirm that that's a period costume, and it's one that they don't actually have so it's not one of them.
