Taking Photos in Threes

Confession by Las Chapter

This is my first time posting here. Was thinking if I should share this. Sharing this because my boyfriend is telling me to share it cause it’s interesting.
 
This happened back in 2012 when I was in sec 4. It was New Year’s Eve and my friends and I decided to go to Vivo City to celebrate and hang out together. There were five of us. 

After the countdown, we decided to take some photos before heading back home and went to the Sentosa boardwalk. I’m deathly afraid of ghosts as I’ve had nightmares almost every night since I was young until my family moved house. My mum never believed in my nightmares though. Naturally I was the most pantang amongst my group of friends.

One of my friends suggested that the three of us took a photo together. I tried to dissuade them because I heard of a superstitious belief that taking photos in threes would invite spirits to join us. But my group, consisting of young people, did not believe in such old wives' tales. 

After some persuasion, I relented because I did not want to be a party pooper. We took a number of photos, shared it in our WhatsApp group chat and went home. Everything was normal up to this point. 

Almost a week later, my friends started to spam our WhatsApp group. Apparently one of them wanted to post a photo we took that night on Instagram but the photo was pretty dark, so she edited it to try to make it brighter only to realize there was something behind us in the photo. 

Lo and behold, it was the photo of 3 of us in a group, I was the one in the middle and there was an apparition of someone standing behind me. 

I panicked! 

I was at work at that time and my colleagues consisting mainly of older aunties and uncles told me to quickly go to a temple and pray. They also told me to delete the photo but my boyfriend told me that I should share it with the Supernatural Confessions community. 
 
Just to confirm that the photo had not been edited just to scare me, I went back to the original photo to brighten it myself and saw the apparition. 

First photo is the original photo taken, the second one has brightness enhanced so you can see what I’m talking about. Photo quality dropped a lot when I uploaded it to Facebook but from my phone I can see a translucent figure of a lady in a toga dress, her hair was in a bun, and her mouth was hanging wide open.
