Ghost Caught On Camera During A Car Commercial Filming

Because tonight October 30th marks "Devil's Night" (see below if you don't know what Devil's Night is), I thought what better way to get into the spirit of Halloween and everything spooky, than to share some footage of a ghost caught on camera! You must see this! Here is a strange, but rather interesting car advertisement from Great Britain. It is said that when they finished filming the ad, the film editor noticed something moving along the side of the car, like a ghostly white mist. While examining the footage and researching the location in which it was shot, they found out that a person had been killed a year earlier in that exact same spot. The ad was never put on TV because of the unexplained ghostly phenomenon. However, the original unedited clip has been passed around the net and I thought I would share it on my blog. Don't play the video yet! Read below for tips on what you need to be looking for because you might not see the "ghost" otherwise if you aren't looking in the right area.

Pay close attention to the front end of the car as it clears the trees in the middle of the screen. You’ll see the white mist crossing in front of the car, then following it along the road...spooky! Is it a ghost or is it simply mist? I'll let you decide. If you have audio on your computer, turn up the volume because if you listen near the end of the commercial, you’ll even hear the cameraman whispering in the background about it. I won't lie, it's a little creepy but pretty cool! It's a short commercial and small video download, under 1MB so even those of you on slow connections can check it out too.

(In some areas, the phrase "Devil's Night" was coined to described the night prior to Halloween. The tradition started in Michigan and then spread to other states. It is also known as "Mischief Night" and in some areas "Cabbage Night". Devil's Night is where kids, teens and even some adults go around pulling pranks on October 30th. Originally the pranks were rather harmless in nature and included such things as soaping/waxing windows, egging houses and cars (by the way egging a car is not harmless - eats the paint), ringing doorbells then running away, overturning garbage cans and of course draping trees with toilet paper. Devil's Night is a long-standing Detroit tradition pre-dating World War II, with incidents occurring as early as the 1930s. Beginning in the 1970s the mischief became more destructive, particularly in Detroit's inner-city neighborhoods, and extended into hundreds of acts of arson and vandalism. The destruction reached a peak in the mid to late 1980s. As a result many adopted the term "Angels Night" where volunteers would help patrol neighborhoods and prevent crime. In case you couldn't guess, I think Devil's Night is a great holiday tradition, ha-ha.)
