Passing through many generations, visitors and employees of the White House claimed to have seen the ghost of Abraham Lincoln. In fact, there is a Wikipedia page that dwell about sightings of Abraham Lincoln.
Recently, a paranormal researcher believes he has photographic evidence of the existence of the ghost of Abraham Lincoln at the White House.
Joshua P. Warren said that a photograph in 1950 in the basement of the White House showed the presence of a ghost-like figure who is believed to be the 16th president of the United States.
"The photographs capture just below the Lincoln bedroom. And because he is the most frequently reported ghost, I suppose it could have been Lincoln. "

Photo is taken up by Abbie Rowe, a White House photographer subscription. In the photo above there was a bulldozer in the foreground and a group of people on the left side of the background. But amid the background there is the figure of a man who seems to invisibility.
Warren said that the image was not considered strange until 2008 when the photo appeared in the Pulitzer Prize-winning biography of Truman, David McCullough filmed in 1992.
One reader, Bob Martin, wrote a letter to tenants biography it, but did not get a response.
Warren may believe that the ghost of Lincoln, but there is also another opinion. In a small documentary about the photo, some parties mention the long exposure or double exposure as the cause look like a ghost in the photo.

But Warren did not agree, he said, "There was a man in front in the photo walk on a pile of rubble. It can be seen from the position that there is only 1 or 2 seconds between the opening and closing the shutter of the camera. "
Bryan Bonner of the Rocky Mountain Paranormal Research Society Warren guessed wrong. He said via e-mail, "This picture is a classic example of 1950s architecture photograph. That is, do not care about the people in the picture, more to the building. With over 30 years of photography experience, I have no doubt that this is just a blurry image of a person. "
Furthermore, Warren suggests ghostly figure was slightly higher than the average person, based on where the head of the people in his left.
He said in the website, "If we consider the three men have average height, meaning that the figure is higher than average (although we do not know the altitude of the ground at the construction site). Lincoln is approximately 193 centimeters tall, and is consistent with the possibility that there is the appearance of the Lincoln. "
Ben Radford, deputy editor of Skeptical Inquirer, said that the ghost sightings occur in the photo with long exposure techniques, including photographs of the US Civil War.
He said in an email to the Huffington Post, "There's nothing strange about that picture. I actually would be surprised if a careful study of the photographs Rowe others around this time with the same device actually does not show anything. "
He continued, "It's funny, there are people who have never guessed that as president of the lesser-known ghost like Fillmore or Polk."
Warren believes he can prove this case better if it had access to the original negative or a permit to hunt ghosts in the White House. Unfortunately, permission for a second it was rejected.
Warren says that the images "the ghost of Lincoln" was one of the many foro taken during the Truman administration and expressed not a secret in 1978 by Jimmy Carter.
"Truman was president when the Roswell crash occurred, along with the formation of the CIA and NSA. So maybe there are a number of photos that can surprise us. "
Meanwhile Radford again even more surprised there are people who think "ghost image of the most reliable and menajubkan" according to Warren as serious evidence of the supernatural.
He said, "If this is the best photographic evidence of ghosts-if an expert does not know the difference between a ghost and ghost-long exposure, the evidence of ghosts is much worse than I imagined."
