Mysterious ‘ghost’ boots appear in photo of girl near samurai graveyard.
This is what’s happened ever since a Reddit user uploaded the following photo. It features a young girl standing near a beach that’s across from a samurai graveyard.
And if you look behind her legs, you’ll see what appears to be a pair of boots and part of a shirt peeking out from… somewhere.
“My daughter thinks the whole thing is just so funny,” Martin Springall, who snapped the image, tells ABC News. “She thinks it’s a ghost, but not a scary ghost – a nice one.”
The photo was taken last July in Zushi, Japan.
Springall shared the shot with a friend, who uploaded it to the “Ghosts” subreddit.
“Some thought it could be the ghost of a World War II sailor,” he says, not offering up any of his own theories, but making it clear no actual person was there:
“My daughter is really shy, and she wouldn’t have taken a picture if there was someone standing behind her, which I would have definitely noticed.”

load of crap. The boots haven’t ‘returned’ that is just the same picture. Where there are no boots that is of a different angle and also the person could have walked away. Samurai boots? idiots, seems more like leather motor outfit. Just a guy standing at the edge of the grass looking over the ocean. Simple as that, but no… got to be a the ghost of a samurai who can escape our view but ofcourse not the camera.
Proved as a fake…… Want 5 mins of fame mate??? Sad sod
Seriously????? You can clearly tell it’s someone standing behind her, probably leaning forward at the moment the pic was taken. As for the other photo where you can’t see boots, that’s from a totally different angle as all you can see between the girls legs is grass, whereas the “phantom” shot it’s mainly rocks. What a load of old tosh and I pity the poor fools who believe it.
