Ghostly image captured at popular attraction - PICTURE
THIS Doncaster student's picture of an aquarium has baffled bosses at a tourist attraction – with a mysterious image of a ghostly face.
Emma Place, from Norton, took the picture on her mobile phone while visiting The Deep in Hull with her dad Alan, 48.
It was taken inside a tunnel which overlooks one of The Deep's tanks and which appears to depict a human head, seen here at the bottom right of the picture.
The 21-year-old contacted bosses at the popular tourist attraction after her boyfriend Craig Richardson, 23, noticed the face after they had returned.
She said: "I was quite freaked out – it's the expression on the face. I have been there before and did not see it so I emailed The Deep asking what it was."
Bosses launched an investigation to work out what the image was and CCTV confirmed nobody else was inside the tunnel.
Emma, a second year dental technology student at Manchester Metropolitan University, said: "I don't normally believe in things like that but it's quite spooky."
Colin Brown, chief executive of The Deep, said: "We are a scientific centre and we're sure there must be a logical explanation. It's just that we can't find it. There must be some sort of optical illusion or reflection of images between the window, but we cannot figure out how it has been done."
