A 'ghost' showed up in this girl's selfie and we're thoroughly spooked

Could this be the proof we need?

Attention everyone: ghosts are real, they're here, they float among us and we've got proof.

Jessica Ogletree posted this photo of a selfie her daughter Haley took with her son Kolton in the background and...wait what? Is that...WHO IS THAT OTHER GUY?

Can you see him to the right of her son? Wearing the hat?

In her post, Jessica claims that that man was not with the family that day and there wasn't anyone else at the spot where they were fishing. The only people there were her children and their grandparents.

So, this guy's a ghost right? We can all agree?

Of course, reactions from others are mixed. Some believe this man is legit a ghost, while other skeptics and party poopers think it's Photoshopped:

But wait, there's more!

A woman named Lyn Bennetts took her investigation to the next level and pointed out possible other spirits in the pic:

Then, Kassaundra Wilson spooked everyone further by pointing the other ghosts out in this photo Lyn was referring to:

Hmm...not so sure about those ghosts. Maybe if you squint real hard and tilt your head to the right you'll be able to see them, but the main attraction here is definitely that guy in the hat. For sure a ghost.

At least that's what we're hoping for anyway. It's more fun to believe in ghosts.

Boo!
