Ghosts: Part 6a - Types of ghost (Ghostly Mist)

There are many reported types of ghost. In this post I aim to learn about these types and any information about how they appearand my thoughts about what they could logically be.

Ectoplasm / Mist

Apparently look exactly like smoke.But the important characteristic that defines it as a "ghost" is that it has "swirls". Not entirely sure what that means. Anyone who smokes knows that the smoke is constantly swirling around. The following are photo's of ghostly mist.

Nothing much to say about these really. The first one just looks like smoke to me. The second one I'll admit does look weird but could easily have been photoshopped. And the third looks like it was taken on a bit of a foggy evening. Pictures can be easily faked these days so I'll also provide a couple of youtube videos to see this type of ghost in action.


I still don't quite see what exactly defines these as ghost mists. Maybe if on my investigations I come across something like this I'll understand but for now I'm just going to class it as overreaching for ghostly explanations.

If you want to see more images. The above three were taken from the following sites:

  6. I agree. This stuff can typically be explained by fog, smoke, breath, dust, ect. Just because you didn't see it at the time, doesn't mean that it didn't reflect any light when you took the picture.

  12. I think they usually stretch on these to make them paranormal. Same with orbs. Thanks for showing these.
