CHESTERTOWN, Md. -- The word "ghost" is hot on the lips of Kent County Court House employees.
A new $75,000 security system installed July 1 hasn't caught any criminals, but it did capture some haunting images of what appears to be a strange light "walking" in one stairwell.
"It didn't show up to the eye, but it showed up on tape," said security officer Phillip Price.
Security personnel first saw the light while looking at a surveillance tape recorded July 29, and it appeared live for more than an hour the next day.
After noticing the light, Price walked up the stairs and didn't see a thing. But downstairs, where by then a crowd of employees had gathered to watch, the video monitor revealed the strange light proceeding ahead of Price, stopping when he stopped and starting when he started.
At one point, those watching the video feed saw Price walk through the anomaly, they said. That was about the time that Price said he felt something.

Yeah, I'd like to see the video too... they never seem to have it accompanying these stories.

Psst...I don't think HTML works in the headline function; only in the main body of an article. :-)

Since ancient times it has been known that "similar cures similar". Therefore, only spirits [distilled, in this case] will take care of spirits, and night shift court security employees are to be given one 375mL bottle of government issue 86 proof stuff per nose per night. The problem should go away; if not, the bottle size should be increased.

Cool! Add me to your ghost list! (I'm an occasional "armchair" ghost watcher on the internet ghost cams!)

Just because radio waves weren't discovered until the late 1800's, doesn't mean they weren't there beforehand.
I reserve the right to think the same thing about ghosts.

I never used a staple gun, yer honour.
It was a .44!
