Ghost. Spain

The ghost of the last Magdalene priest and the horse-drawn carriage driver who escaped during the funeral reappear on the stairs to the basement.

People who walk along Mesones Street and stop at the door leading to the basement of the current Cadastre building, the former administrative headquarters of the Provincial Council of Granada, cannot help but experience a strange feeling of anxiety and anxiety that makes them look inland and leave as soon as possible. The glass of a small door located to the right of the main entrance to the building opens a staircase leading to the assembly hall, the place where, in the famous case of the Ghost, the highest level of paranormal energy was recorded. The Diputacion of Granada, and where now, three decades after the first studies conducted by parapsychologists from the now defunct Omega Association and other well-known people such as Jimenez del Oso, the image of a ghost materializes again and even other ghosts appear.

Rafael Reyes, an expert and researcher of paranormal phenomena, claims to have made several images depicting the face of a ghost.

"The image was taken one afternoon when my friend and I were just walking along this street and stopped at a place that I have always considered one of the places with the highest concentration of energy in the city. I took a photo, as I have done many times, but this time, when I took a photo, my silhouette was not reflected, but in its place appeared a strange mixture of light and shadow, reminding us of the face that we all perceive as Benito's father. , the ghost of the Provincial Council," says this researcher, who owns images of visions at the Alfaguara sanatorium and the ghost of the El Granero pub, among other cases.

But the image of the last parish priest of Corpus Christi Church, Magdalena Parish on Mesones Street, was not the only ghostly presence. In another photo taken by Rafael Reyes the day after the previous one.

"The image of the coachman appeared from the time when this church was closed for worship. The silhouette of a short frock coat with a scarf around the neck," says Rafael Reyes.

An image occupying the same place where the priest's face was reflected.

What does the coachman have to do with the case of the Provincial Duma? The answer is the latest known data on the activities of the old church, which says that in 1835, in the last year of its worship, while the funeral services were going on and parishioners were entering and leaving the temple, a horse-drawn carriage passed. I got into an accident that killed several people. The horses ran away when they were afraid of the presence of the funeral participants and ran over the parishioners. An important businessman from Granada was in the car, who accused the funeral participants of occupying the street and scaring away the animals. This man sponsored the closure of the temple.

"Now the image of Father Benito is being added to the image of a coachman who could not restrain the animals, and his soul still feels guilty for the death that occurred 181 years ago," says Rafael Reyes.

This researcher, who sometimes acts as a guide to the Spectral Grenade for special groups of people interested in the world of secrets, assures that almost no one likes to approach this door and everyone looks at it with a certain suspicion," and that "These people are used to such places."

Now, thirty years after the poltergeist, which is considered one of the most important and "realistic" events that took place in Spain, two new images add to the contribution of the paranormal universe.
