The Brown Lady of Raynham Hall

This famous ghost picture was apparently taken in 1936 by Indra Shira during a photo shoot for Country Life magazine. According to Indra, he saw an apparition coming down the stairs and so he told his assistant to a photograph the staircase. His assistant did not see the white apparition and bet Shira that nothing would be in the picture. Once the photograph was developed, he lost five English pounds as a result of the bet.

This photograph has been seen worldwide and is known as the Brown Lady of Raynham Hall. The home where this picture was taken is Raynham Hall in Norfolk, England. Legend tells that King George the IV of England and others had seen a ghost called the Brown Lady before this photo was taken. This 1936 photo is reportedly the last sighting of the Brown Lady.
