BACKGROUND
Spirit photography is a type of photography whose primary attempt is to capture images of ghosts and other spiritualentites, especially in ghost hunting and has a strong history dating back to the late 19th century.
Spirit photography was first used by William H. Mumler in the 1860s. Mumler discovered the technique by accident, after he saw a second person in a photograph he took of himself, which he found was actually a double exposure. Seeing there was a market for it, Mumler started working as a medium, taking people's pictures and doctoring the negatives to add lost loved ones into them (mostly using other photographs as basis). Mumler's fraud was discovered after he put identifiable living Boston residents in the photos as spirits.
