PHOTO: Phantom at Rialto Bridge in Venice, Italy

A photographer and filmmaker contacted me about an image he took of an unknown phantom-like entity at the Rialto Bridge in Venice, Italy. What do you think it was?

I received the following account:

"Hi, I came across your blog whilst searching outlets who may be interested in publishing my story about an encounter with a Venetian ghost. I hope you may be interested in my story which is 100% true.

I am a photographer and filmmaker and several years ago I was staying in Venice. It was late in the evening and I decided to take a night stroll with my partner. As we explored the now deserted streets in Venice we made our way to the Rialto Bridge. Most people by now were in their hotels asleep apart from the odd couple walking and exploring Venice. Once on the other side of the Rialto Bridge, I took a few photographs. The perfect Venetian scene with steps in the foreground, leading up to the famous bridge and a moon appearing between the clouds.

Several weeks later I was developing the 35mm film in my darkroom and I noticed a shape on one of the wet negatives which really caught my eye. Holding the negative up to the light I could see a figure on the steps of the Rialto Bridge. A figure that was 100% not there when I took the photograph. I quickly dried the negative and then proceeded to make a print in the darkroom.

I shall never forget how my heart was beating when the image started to appear in the developer as it slowly came into view. As clear as anything a large cloaked figure appeared to be slightly hovering over the first two steps of the Rialto Bridge. I really tried to think if anyone had passed me that night and I had just not seen them. The more I thought about it and the more I looked at it I realized I photographed a ghost." M

Dragons & Wyverns have been a part of historical legend & heroic stories for centuries. These creatures have been a part of our modern lexicon since the advent of media entertainment. They are seen as destroyers, as well as instruments used to battle evil.

When we hear or read of modern sightings our imaginations go back to the prehistoric Far East or the Medieval period when these behemoths were said to exist throughout antiquity.

Then we hear of flying monsters of the New World, particularly in the Appalachian Mountains and the Atlantic Piedmont. Dragon-like cryptids that the German settlers referred to as the Snallygaster. Are these the descendants of the legendary winged serpents of earlier times?

So, please listen to the following accounts I have received from witnesses who recall their encounters, and then decide for yourself. I hope that you enjoy the presentation.
