Ghost of Buck Hill

Description

This picture was taken at Buck Hill Ontario... the story goes:

During the depression and a particularly harsh winter storm a logger returned to his home and family. He cautioned his wife and young daughter to remain indoors while he went out to fetch some firewood. Upon his return his wife told him that their pet dog had gotten out of the house and the girl had ran out in order to call him back and had not yet returned. The anxious father grabbed his lantern and began to search for his missing child. The family lived on Buck Hill road and the distraught parent searched up and down it to no avail. The young girl had simply vanished into the stormy night never to be seen again. As legend has it the logger who went mad with grief never gave up his search, and would comb the area nightly with his lantern until his death. Some locals in the area believe his search continues to this very day and refuse to go near this isolated, logging road.

I took the picture on a solid overcast sky in between periods of rain. I'm not sure what the light is, but it was not visible to the naked eye. I am also not sure if I was at the right location on Buck Hill road. I did catch this light on 3 different pictures, all of which were taken at different positions from each other. I also have 2 more pictures with relatively strong orbs taken at the same spot. Rumor has it that when you get to the location on Buck Hill road, under total darkness. you yell out daddy three times and a light from a lantern is supposed to appear. I gave it a shot, but I did not see any lights with my naked eye. I have found a video on You Tube of some guys trying the same thing. It's interesting to say the least. I am open to comment and input to try and figure out what the light in this picture really is.

Hm. My only concern would be rain drops falling off the trees or even drizzle catching your flash. If you look closely, you can see some in the background too.


Interesting legend though. No parent should ever have to go through the loss of a child...
