A Maine painter says several photographs she took in the infamous Lizzie Borden house in Fall River, Massachusetts turned out to have the outline of a person in them.

The pictures, which Joanne Parent shared on Facebook, show a mirror in the corner on a table, along with several framed photographs.

But on closer inspection, the mirror appears to show something.

“You can clearly see the outline of something, like the form of a woman wearing a hood,” Parent told the PenBay Pilot. “I showed them to my sister and her husband. I was like ‘Oh My God,’ look at this.”

Parent had posted the photo to Facebook, but has since made her profile private so it’s not longer publicly available. However, the photo can still be seen on the PenBay Pilot.
