Apparition In the Triangular Field Gettysburg

by Ruth
(from Pa.)

This is a photo of the gate entrance at the Triangular Field. It is one of the most haunted areas of the Gettysburg battlefield. If you are not familiar with this field you can do a search on the Ghost of Gettysburg Triangular Field.

This picture was taken Jan. 3rd, 2003 using a Kodak Easy Share digital camera. It was a very mild winter day, so I decided to take a trip to the Gettysburg battlefield with my daughter and son. We live very close to Gettysburg.

We decided to visit the Triangular Field but nothing really seemed out of the ordinary that day. We were the only people there. After walking around a bit we left, and I took this picture after we got out of the field.

It's of the gate area looking into the Triangular Field. To the left side of the gate where the stone wall dips..look down the field towards the woods. I see an apparition of a man walking towards the woods and I also see a big face of a man in front of the trees to the left side of that big boulder. The trees right behind that look mighty strange too. I showed this picture to others and they can see it too.

This was zoomed in and cropped from the original photo so you can see it better. I'd like to know if you can see what I'm seeing.

Ghosts?
by: GrayReb

Hi, Ruth. Took another closer look at your photo. Did you notice if there were houses back there in the woods? I can clearly see a few houses when I zoom in closely. To the right is where I see the apparition of a man in a dark uniform, a woman in long dress and another man in a white shirt and dark trousers standing by a tree. Amazing that we can all look at the same photo but have different interpretations.

Can you go to any of these haunted battlefields at night, or are they off-limits and closed down after a certain time?

Apparition Photo
by: GrayReb

When I used Windows Picture and Fax viewer to zoom in, I distinctly saw a figure with a white top and dark trousers. He looks like he's peaking around the tree. After closer scrutiny, I spotted another figure to the left of him with an all dark uniform, wearing a hat, and a third figure sitting down(?)in between the two of them or leaning against a rock in what appears to be a long, dark, full dress(?) Now, you've got me curious. Does anybody else see what I think I see?

I'm glad that worked for you GrayReb. I don't see anyone wearing white shirts and dark pants in my photo though. And there was absolutely no living person in the field when I took that photo. If there had been, I would have said that.

In my circle I see a shape of a man that is slightly transparent and not fully formed. He is missing a leg or perhaps it just wasn't formed yet when the photo was taken. He was the first image I found when I first looked at my photo. I followed the white streak that lead right into him.

Still in the circle in front of the trees, there is a tall stalk of weeds and I see a large face right beside that. And many forms and faces I see in the trees that I don't have circled.

I'm not trying to convince anyone or make up a story about this photo. What would I have to gain from that? Either people can see what I'm seeing or they can't. Simple as that. I'm just curious as to how many other people can see these images.

I have taken many photo's at the Gettysburg Battlefield over the years, and the only photo's I have with strange images are the 2 that I listed on this website...both taken the same day at the Triangular Field. And I have studied all my other photo's carefully. So I know it's not my imagination.

Triangular Field Apparition
by: GrayReb

Thanks Ruth. I did what you suggested. I can see faint outlines of a couple of people; they all seem to have white shirts and dark pants, and don't seem to be wearing uniforms, though. Not yet convinced they're apparitions; tourists walking around perhaps?

If you have Windows Picture & Fax Viewer it will enlarge the photo. You can right click to save photo in your pictures. Then after the photo is saved in your pictures, right click the photo again and choose Open With..Windows Picture & Fax Viewer. It has a magnifier you can use to really enlarge photos. I don't know if you have that, but if you do it works great.

Hope you can see what I'm seeing. Also study the trees. There are images and faces in the trees that I didn't point out. Maybe not everyone can see this, but I know I do and a few others see it too.

Does anyone know how to enlarge the photo so the "entities" can be seen? A magnifying glass just isn't what I had in mind. Is there software you can download to zoom in and get a closer look? Appreciate any advice or link.

I have pictures too
by: Gene (Harrisburg, PA)

I was at the Triagular Field in January of 2006 and was trying out a my new Kodak digital camera...Shooting blindly, I too, found images of faces in the pictures I took...and some looked like soldiers from the period. I can't believe someone else has pictures that show faces in the same area where I took my pictures. I wish I could get them enlarged...

Thanks to all that have commented on this so far. I'm very happy to share this photo and hope to get more comments. I appreciate hearing from all of you to see how many of you can see these spirits. Even if you can't see them, feel free to comment. There are more then I mentioned. If you study the trees you may find them.

Triangular Field
by: Brown Eyes

Using a magnifying glass I can see 6, maybe 7 people images! Which would make sense, because this was a battlefield.
Thank you for sharing it with us!

OMG
by: Renee

OMG I can really see it! The man is very faint and it looks like he only has one leg. I think I see a face beside a tall weed too. Under your arrow in the trees, it looks like a tall man holding a candle or light of some type. Is this for real or am I just seeing things? Wow!

Apparition in Triangular field
by: Anonymous

WOW!! I can see SEVERAL eerie forms! This is SO cool!
Where you have it circled - I can clearly see a man walking! And to the left of him - with a magnifying glass you can see the white form of a man sitting. But, straight on, up in the trees - is a very large face.?!
I just wonder - when you're at that field - can you "feel" them there?! I've heard people say they can smell them, or hear them, at times.
Ah, not me! I'll just stay home and read about it!

Not able to see what you are describing, although I don't doubt you see something. I've been there many times myself. Will have to try to zoom in on the area you indicated somehow to get a better look.
