A woman named Mrs. Andrews was visiting the grave of her daughter in a
cemetery in Queensland, Australia in 1946 or 1947. Her daughter Joyce
had died about a year earlier, in 1945, at the age of 17. Mrs. Andrews
saw nothing unusual when she took this photo of Joyce's gravemarker.
When the film was developed, Mrs. Andrews was astonished to see the
image of a small child sitting happily at her daughter's grave. The
ghost child seem to be aware of Mrs. Andrews since he or she is looking
directly into the camera.
Is is possibly a double exposure? Mrs. Andrews said there were no
such children nearby when she took the photograph and, moreover, did
not recognize the child at all – it was no one she would have taken a
picture of. She remarked that she did not believe it was the ghost of
her daughter as a child.
Investigating this case, Australian paranormal researcher Tony Healy
visited the cemetery in the late 1990s. Near Joyce's grave he found the
graves of two infant girls.
