Initial data
The photo was taken in 1963 by the priest C. F. Lord Newby at a church in North Yorkshire, England.
The picture caused a storm of controversy, as the ghostly face and the direction of the gaze give reason to talk about the overlay of the frame. But, they say, this picture was studied in detail by specialists who came to the conclusion that these are not two frames superimposed one on one, namely a solid plan.

The Ghost of Newby Church (or Monk Newby) is the name given to a figure found in a photograph taken at the Church of Christ the Comforter on the territory of Newby Hall in North Yorkshire , United Kingdom . The image was taken in 1963 by the Reverend Kenneth F. A lord.
Since the figure appears to resemble a person, there has been a lot of speculation as to what type of person might be in the image. Most of the assumptions of believers have come to the conclusion that he resembles a 16th-century monk with a white shroud on his face, perhaps to mask leprosy or other deformity. Others claim it's an accomplice in a suit.
Initial statements suggested that the figure would be 9 feet tall, but its legs are not visible, and it can easily stand on the box, giving the impression of being tall.
When viewing the image, the alleged expert photographers concluded that the image was not the result of a double exposure, although Rick Burden, founder of the Ghost Hunters of Australia website, believes it is "probably a fake." This is reminiscent of many other double-exposure hoaxes.
