On November 19, 1995, Wem Town Hall in Shropshire, England burned to
the ground. Many spectators gathered to watch the old building, built
in 1905, as it was being consumed by the flames. Tony O'Rahilly, a
local resident, was one of those onlookers and took photos of the
spectacle with a 200mm telephoto lens from across the street. One of
those photos shows what looks like a small, partially transparent girl
standing in the doorway. Nether O'Rahilly nor any of the other
onlookers or firefighters recalled seeing the girl there.
O'Rahilly submitted the photo to the Association for the Scientific
Study of Anomalous Phenomena which, in turn, presented it for analysis
to Dr. Vernon Harrison, a photographic expert and former president of
the Royal Photographic Society. Harrison carefully examined both the
print and the original negative, and concluded that it was genuine.
"The negative is a straightforward piece of black-and-white work and
shows no sign of having been tampered with," Harrison said.
But who is the little girl? Wem, a quiet market town in northern
Shropshire, had been ravaged by fire in the past. In 1677, historical
records note, a fire destroyed many of the town's old timber houses. A
young girl named Jane Churm, the legends say, accidentally set fire to
a thatched roof with a candle. Many believed her ghost haunted the area
and had been seen on a few other occasions.
