I come arcoss this video on youtube its from Severalls Asylum in Colchester i have visited this site 2 times and was probably the less creepy Asylum i have been in, i didnt really get any feelings or experience anything whilst there.
However these guys that call themselfs " Urban Ghost Crew " have put this Video up on Youtube showing a picture of an apparition of what appears to be a nurse, some Orbs and a EVP.
I have dimissed the Orbs and i'm sure it's from the flash but the apparition and EVP are cool.
What do you think

Very interesting, Matt!
You are right about the orbs, they are most probably due to the flash and the dust.
But the apparition pic IS very cool... It is so clear, almost too good to be true. It nearly looks like a blurred black and white image, but the proportions and the perspective seem to be right... either it's genuine, or a very good fake.
The EVP is also interesting... I understand "I live!"... male adult voice, not whispered, but still quite faint.
Good finding, Matt. I will check out their hp, if they have one.

Edit: Couldn't find any homepage .... Would have been interesting to have a closer look on the picture

I've cut the picture from the video and had a play with it. The poportion does seem right i estimate the figure to be around 5ft 6"
Looking at the picture the apparition seems see through but on closer inspection i dont think it is there is a box or something to the bottom right of the apparition which you cannot see behind the apparition.
Also when zoomed in the lines are very straight around teh bottom right corner of the apparition
Normal
Zoomed
Tint
Filled and Highlighted
Inverted
what do you think?

I think that these images are amazing! They are clear and do show what appears to be an apparition in the abandoned hospital.
I would like to arrange an investigation there for June this year! Who is up for that?
Its had alot of bad press over recent months about kids trashing it, BBC breaking in, why is it just been left to rot etc.... so culd be a tricky one. If you could sort it i'd love to be a part of it such a beautiful place.

I guess Ian and I would be into that one, Barri!!! We always wanted to investigate an asylum.
As for just seeing for ourselves... I don't think so!!! Let's try to get permission by the owner. I think it would be a nice change for them, if someone actually asks for permission to enter. And who knows... I bet there are locked areas there as well and we might even get access to them then.... give it a try. The last thing we want is some police car turning up for an rountine check, discovering that there's a team without permission and getting sued for burglary or so... not good for reputation, eh?
I guess, you could find the owner with the Essex city council... that would be your job, Barri, you've got the better connections with councils
Fingers crossed!!!
@Matt
You are right there with the straight line, almost as if it was cut iut.. but the picture is quite pixely.... maybe it's due to that???? Hella

Severalls has been the hardest place i have had to get into it has Palisade fencing all around it and security on site. When inside everything is open.
Hella as for being arrested tresspassing is a civil offence not a criminal offence so cannot be arrested unless you break or steal somethng then it turns it to breaking and entering or burgulary which you can be arrested for.

Interesting photo. And that looks like the coolest most creepy place ever
It does look like she's walking with her arms folded, looking towards the camera. With photos being so easy to fake though, how do you decide if it's real?
There used to be an old hospital (since knocked down and is now an office block) next to my college that we snuck into a couple of times, the floors were all falling down and it was majorly derelict so I don't think if we'd asked permission we'd have been allowed in. We weren't there long though, around 30 minutes each time to take photos and have a look around, but did feel very on edge wondering if some security person would show up! I'm glad we went as the place was amazing and a total horror film set.

I am going to email the North Essex Partnership NHS today and then call to chase it up. I am sure that with Public Liability Insurance and a good risk assessment we should be okay.
I shall let you all know as soon as I have heard from them.

The image is very interesting superficially. But it's not clear in that it's an indistinct shape that may be interpreted as vaguely human shaped. IMO it doesn't show an apparition it shows a shape that could be an artifact of image capture, a smudge on the lens, breath just a few millimeters from the camera lens or mist at a distance caused by any one of a number of things.

I've been looking at this photo for a while and I see something that resembles another possible genuine photo? Check these out.
Now if you look at the 2nd photo and check out the way the arm seems to look like that of a Gibbon? This looks bloody close.Also the figures head resembles that of a rat? Just a strange thought here but could you imagine if every animal species has been created like us but left on scattered planets to see who is the most intelligent. We are the monkeys guys remember...marvelous lol!!
