A man
hiking near a local suicide spot in rural Queensland has snapped a
picture of a shadowy figure that some claim is a ghost.
The
image, posted to Toowoomba Ghost Chasers' Facebook page on Thursday
evening, appears to show a bald man, with a short beard, wearing a red
jumper standing among a stack of fallen branches.
The
group claim that a member, who goes by Brokc David, was hiking in a
national park near Goomburra, Toowoomba, in rural Queensland, when he
started to feel as if someone was watching him.
'This was shared by a member who went out hiking at a local Toowoomba water hole known for suicides.'
‘He
all of a sudden felt as though he was being watched and followed and he
felt an awful feeling of dread wash over him.. Then when going back
through his photos he finds this,’ the post read.
The
ghost hunting group said that while hikers frequent the area, it is rare
to see someone dressed in red in the middle of remote bush land.
Mr David said he has been experiencing a 'feeling of dread’ since he took the eerie photograph.
‘Oddly enough I've been experiencing a similar feeling of dread every once in a while over the last week.'
'I'll
be walking down the street and all of a sudden feel like something is
about to jump out at me from behind a tree,’ he wrote on Facebook.
Several people have commented on the photo testifying to its authenticity.
‘Definitely a bearded man there in red!’ one woman said.
