It was me. I do _not_ appreciate being told I look like a stain, and I most
_certainly_ do not appreciate having my head rotated 90 degrees. Put it
back the way it was.

Alright, as much fun as there is to have with this subject, it's late.

This is a strange, rare phenomenon known as dirty rollers in the printing
processor. If you examine the negative, I'm sure you won't find this. If you
have the photos reprinted at a lab that actually maintains its equipment, lo
and behold, you'll just have a picture of yourself looking like Alice Cooper
with the top of his head cut off.

BUT... what causes the dirty rollers? Usually, it's a hex, or Mokela Mbembe.

I don't think it's dust.

And it actually IS in the negative!  I don't have the negative anymore however.
I remember looking for it and seeing it in the negative though.

It's like it's made up of droplets.  And they're pulling apart... as if
something is tearing the emulsion apart.

You can see how the right side of the face (It's left) would mirror the 
other side if you pushed it back together.  Especially around the nostril
and eye.

There's a hole in one side of the skull, and on the other side is what looks
like a hole forming into a droplet.  There's a tiny horn at the very top.

It's freaky looking!

BTW, don't mind the broken links on my page.  I never get around up updating it!

Cool!  I am reminded of the time I was experimenting with pin hole
Polaroid photography and had just made a close-up of a model railroad
vignette.  The print showed a large red light at the upper right side of
the track where a signal might have been.  The "light" even had
concentric circles as though there had been considerable flare.  I was
so taken aback by the appearance of the apparition that I took
considerable time to examine the setup including the "negative" part of
the throw-away material and found nothing...very creepy at that time. 
It could not be reproduced.  Obviously, Dr. Land was haunting me
personally for attempting something for which his equipment was not
intended.

Seriously,  your apparition looks suspiciously like the effect a tiny
drop of fixer (bleach) reached the film prior to development.

Amazing how those who think the occult is so cool will try to find an
occultic connection/reason for anything and everything, isn't it?

Before you buy.

no doubt it's an evil demon that must be exorcised...i reccomend seeing your
nearest photo god or goddess...i'm not kidding. in my photo class at school,
we have all sorts of strange things that happen (call it inexperience) and
we just bring it to our teacher (the "goddess") and everything is happy
after that. to date, she's exorcised at least 10-15 of my "demons."

I cant believe this guys is serious.
At least if he was having fun it might be a different thing.

Hes actually convinced its a demon he captured!
Wooo hooo!

You stare at a stain on the floor long enough and youll see what ever you
have been
conditioned to see.

Get a grip ken!!
Aint no such thing as the paranormal but what demons you carry inside your
own head.
