A Haunting C-Store Experience
Surveillance video captures blue “ghost-like” figure at the island; owner is “freaked out.”
Maybe it has been a slow week for news, but a local news story out of Parma, Ohio, has generated national media attention including on CNN -- a “ghost-like” blue cloud appeared in the forecourt of a Marathon convenience store, which was captured on the surveillance video.
The orb floats and arts around customers for half-an-hour before disappearing, according to published reports. No one knows what it might have been, including the store owner, Amed Abudaaria, the report stated.
“I actually watched it for 30 minutes and then actually I watched it move and that is when I got freaked out,” he told the paper, adding he was happy it went away and has not returned.
Since the “apparition,” skepticism and rumor has emerged. Some reports state the station was built on an Indian burial ground and the orb was an angel or ghost, while others have claimed it was just a plastic bag floating in the breeze.
The video can be seen on YouTube:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kE_C1FXRo20
After viewing the video, I tend to be of the second belief -- that the “ghost” is really a physical thing such as a bag, trash, bug, etc. Take a look at the video and let me know which side you are on -- otherworldly or trash can escapee?
maybe the camera was picking up a vision of the exorbitant credit card transaction fees escaping from the pump?
