Over the past few months Twitter user Adam Ellis has been updating his followers about some paranormal activity around his New York apartment. Back in August were heard how he has been live tweeting a ghost story and he's continued since then.
He claimed that he was being haunted by 'the ghost of a dead child' who was trying to kill him, and that the poltergeist had even begun appearing in his dreams and had even been approached by strangers about the spooky happenings.
So, my apartment is currently being haunted by the ghost of a dead child and he's trying to kill me. (thread)

For the past 4 nights, my cats gather at the front door at exactly midnight & just stare at it, almost like something is on the other side. pic.twitter.com/Y8nnVLv6b4

With him and his two cats scared shitless by the bizarre goings on, he invested in a Ouija board and a Polaroid camera following the initial incidents, but he's continued to have weird experiences.
In a recent series of Tweets he expanded on what he had posted previously. He wrote:
Sorry for the radio silence the past couple weeks. (thread)

First, I had a friend come over to do some cleansing stuff. She did the whole apartment and the hallway.

A lot of self-proclaimed professional mediums have reached out, plus about a dozen "ghost hunter" TV shows.

I've declined them all because I don't really want strangers in my house sensationalizing what's going on.

So instead I had a friend come over and cleanse the place. And for about a week or so, it seemed like it worked.
- Adam Ellis (@moby_dickhead) October 27, 2017
Things appeared to go back to normal. The cats weren't gathering at the door anymore. I stopped having dreams.
- Adam Ellis (@moby_dickhead) October 27, 2017
It was starting to seem like like it was over.

Then, one morning last week, I was walking to work and passed the shuttered warehouse as usual.
- Adam Ellis (@moby_dickhead) October 27, 2017
This time, all the metal door were wide open, sunlight pouring in. The warehouse was still mostly empty. Except for one thing.

There was a hearse parked near the back wall. pic.twitter.com/0zmcN5CVj3

The warehouse has been closed for over two months. I have no idea why it was open that day. Nobody was around.
- Adam Ellis (@moby_dickhead) October 27, 2017
It was weird, but I tried not to think about it. It's not all that strange to see a hearse, I guess? Like they have to park somewhere?
- Adam Ellis (@moby_dickhead) October 27, 2017
I tried to put it out of my mind, and the the next several days were uneventful.
- Adam Ellis (@moby_dickhead) October 27, 2017
But something else happened last night. It was around 11 or so, and I was watching TV on the couch.

The window looks out onto the roof of the business next door. I glanced out the window but didn't see anything.
- Adam Ellis (@moby_dickhead) October 27, 2017
I figured that maybe there was a mouse in the wall or something. I shrugged and grabbed a beer from the fridge.
- Adam Ellis (@moby_dickhead) October 27, 2017
As I went into the kitchen to get the bottle opener, I noticed something.
- Adam Ellis (@moby_dickhead) October 27, 2017
There's a window in the kitchen, which looks out onto the same roof. And someone was standing on the roof, staring at me.
- Adam Ellis (@moby_dickhead) October 27, 2017
I immediately ducked down. I reached up and flicked off the light switch. I peered over the window sill but couldn't see much.

My phone was in my pocket so I grabbed it and took a photo. It was blurry and dark but I swear someone was out there. pic.twitter.com/HC994WNOmN
- Adam Ellis (@moby_dickhead) October 27, 2017
I tried to take a better photo, but the figure had disappeared. pic.twitter.com/8dZ5UfGnwh
- Adam Ellis (@moby_dickhead) October 27, 2017
I closed all the blinds and made sure the door was locked and then drank like 5 more beers until I was too drunk to be scared.
- Adam Ellis (@moby_dickhead) October 27, 2017
But now I feel like I'm back at square one. I'm sure it was him. He's not going away. I don't know what to do.
- Adam Ellis (@moby_dickhead) October 27, 2017
Scary shit, yeh? Well wait till you see what it looked like when somebody over exposed the image.
hi i turned up the exposure and WHAT IS THAT pic.twitter.com/OKgCrUL867

But, as you might expect not everybody is convinced, especially not by the photos.
One user pointed out: "Ok but there's a electric box on the wall in the second pic but not the first I didn't notice until you did this. Why isn't it in the first?"

I've also been comparing the photos!! I noticed that too.

It's fake people. It's Photoshop pic.twitter.com/wRHsRijV62

It is weird that the electric box seems to disappear. Considering that ghosts aren't real it's probably pretty likely he's using image manipulation software in some way.
Although other users have suggested the photo was just taken from a different angle, meaning he could be getting haunted.
It's not the first time he's been called out either.
Fuck! I copied the image and tweaked it in Photoshop. Look what I found?!!?! pic.twitter.com/RwselMjpQa

I'm enjoying @moby_dickhead ghost saga, but can't help feeling there's a touch of Photoshop about the big, dark rectangle in the hallway! https://t.co/v5bOgoEOHo

This makes me think, lights off and added black to photo through photoshop on phone pic.twitter.com/vvFWvEOOaq

@moby_dickhead Nice story telling, I got scared honestly, but you gotta step up your photoshop game. People are too gullible I swear pic.twitter.com/sG3yuEgSg0

So the debate rages on. What do you think?
