We wne to Alcatraz June of 05′ and all I can say is IF it is not haunted, there IS something weird going on. Our tour was the last one (at night). We specifically purchased 2 disposable digital cameras so we could feel free to take individual, random pictures as we went along.
Well, soon after we got there, and took that incrediable steep climb, my husbands and my moods changed. We felt…irritated?? I guess.. at each other. Mad really..and for no reason.
I bring this up because that anger made us seperate for the self guided tour.
Well, seperately we took random pictures (careful to avoid contact b’cause, again, we were mad).
Neither of us felt anything scarey or haunting really at the time. It was erie maybe, but not particularly scarey.
At the end, as we boarded the boat back, we started talking about how interesting it was (no longer angry).

When I got home, I immediately took my camera to get it developed. My husband still had his.
My film turned up nothing “ghostly”. BUT, one of my pictures had a photograph of ME, taken from OUTSIDE the bars of a cell. I am standing in a cell with a look as if something caught me off guard or something.
You can clearly see the bars in front of me too!
I did not ask anyone to take my picture.

Odd, weird to say the least. I did not look at the negatives, I literally thought to myself “ok no big deal, I’ll freak if his photos are weird.

So a week or so later I got hold of his camera and, you guessed it. On his camera it had a picture of him…but in it his back is turned and he is walking AWAY from the camera!

So NOW were freaking out and we grab our negatives….

Those photos are NOT on the negatives. that photo is black.

Other than that, all the pictures are fine and our experience, amusing.

We want to go back!

Thanks for listening.

Norma – I was really intrigued by your story. I just booked a night tour and will be going there in mid-March.

Does anyone have advice on the best places to take pictures, find paranormal activity etc? I am a believer and would love to come across something. I am not sure as to how much latitude I will have being on the night tour, but I would love to capture something on camera, even just an orb…. You get the point :)

Any help would be great…..

Hey Glenn, i’ll be there in March too! My friends and I were invited to sleep in the whaley house last month with a friend who is a member of the san diego historical society and although I honestly can’t say i saw anything or heard anything, i definitely felt creeped out. Needless to say, alcatraz sparked my interest! i booked the night tour as well on the 17th of march! i like to keep an open mind, people who can’t consider alternative possibilities of the afterlife…i feel sorry for ya, have fun in your tiny little box, er, cell.

I am not sure that I would be able to spend the night somewhere like that. Not that anything would happen, but I would probably run for my life at the slightest noise….

I am excited about the night tour. From posts that I have read around the web, it looks like the D block is the place with the most supposed activity. I am going to snap a bunch of pictures, hopefully something pops up, but we’ll see.

I am interested in seeing how many people are going to be on the night tour, I am sure that it can’t be anything like the day tour… As far as I am concerned, the less people the better, I think it would add something to have less people around.
