Is this the spooky Snapchat ghost of a young girl appearing in Irish family's selfie?

This is a spooky Snapchat image that will really send shivers down your spine.

It seems ghosts are quite the fans of cropping up on the photo-sharing app – and what seems to appear in the background of this picture could have you questioning whether ghosts exist.

But read on and decide for yourself..

Bethany Harvey was taking a Snapchat selfie of herself and her nephew, but says she never expected a creepy presence to pop in for the snap.

Bethany, from Northern Ireland, explained: “I was taking a picture on snap chat of my nephew and I, but my sister jumped into the background so I captioned the picture ‘photo bombed!’

“I set the picture as my story so everyone could see it.”

But Bethany didn’t notice anything amiss with the sweet snap until later that evening.

“A friend of mine came to my house that night and pointed out what looks to be a woman with her hands folded on her knees in the background, baring in mind the picture was taken facing the living room door.

“Although we can’t see the face of the figure the rest of it is as clear as day.”

And Bethany is adamant that there was no one else in the room when the picture was taken: “There was nobody else in the living room at the time, except for the ghost girl in the purple dress.”

She added that other weird occurrences have left her feeling spooked: “A lot of creepy things have happened in the house, I don’t go into the living room in the dark anymore because I fear I might see something.”

What do you think? Where did the girl in the purple dress appear from – are you sceptical?
