Enormous Orbs at William & Mary
[image error]
If you look on the back cover of my book Haunted Historic Colonial Williamsburg Virginia you will see a photograph (see top photo) of something that gives a whole new meaning to the word “orbs”. You see up until now orbs have been rather small (perhaps baseball or softball sized) circular points of light that vary in strength from a bright white color to a grey color and in some cases just an opaque shape. But in the photo of the crypt side of the Wren Building (Yes, there are famous Virginians buried there!) on the campus of William and Mary I captured orbs that are gigantic, towering over if not dwarfing the 3-story building. I have captured orbs of similar size at the Mathews County Baptist Church (see photo below), and upon seeing these photos I wonder if these anomalies are really ghosts. Could something of that size come out of a human body that is on the average somewhere between five and six feet tall?

Several researchers throughout the world, have theorized that our mind is an “electromagnetic conscience” (their words, not mine) because they cannot find a tissue area of the brain where thoughts coalesce to form conscious thought. So they theorize that since nerve signals are electrical, the conscience is likewise electromagnetic in nature and functions as a separate unit in conjunction with our brains. (I go into this a little deeper in my second book, due out in the spring of 2018.) This is what some scientists (like physicist Janus Slawinski) believe can survive the death of the human body. Once death has occurred and the electromagnetic conscience leaves the body, does it expand to an area much larger than the space taken up by the human body? Could that be an explanation for these gigantic apparitions? When water changes from a liquid to a gas, the volume of the area taken up by water vapor increases by a factor of 1,700–meaning that it takes up 1,700 times the space that it did as a liquid. Could this be an analogy for the human soul also? Could the expansion of the electromagnetic field that results from the death of the human body be an explanation for these monstrous orbs?
Something else that I thought as a possibility from this same line of thought: Is this likewise an explanation for the phenomena of psychics? Could the electromagnetic field of a psychic already be at least partially expanded from the confines of the human body, and thereby be an explanation for the psychic’s ability to pick up on another person’s thoughts? In a similar vein, if a person walks within the confines of these huge orbs, could the “ghost” pick up on our thoughts? Do they know what we are thinking?
By suggesting plausible theories what I hope to do is take the idea of the human soul or ghosts out of the realm of mysticism and the occult and look at it logically. I have taken almost 20,000 photographs myself–more than enough to convince myself that ghosts are real, and I hope that the photos in my blog and book are able to convince my readers of this reality. As for myself, I will continue to experiment with the technology to get even better photos, but even with the photos, there are still a lot of questions. We may soon have (or perhaps already have) the technology to fill all the gaps in our knowledge about this alternate reality–all we have to do is pursue it!
