'Ghost' Spotted Walking Out Of Grave In James May's New Amazon Documentary

As May is talking about how they're standing in mass grave, a ghostly apparition can be seen walking across the background of the shot.

It's a faint and undefined figure but it definitely looks like a human striding across the background of the shot.

While it looks like a ghost, that is to say like a faint apparition of a human and not a person wearing a sheet over their head, not everyone is sure it's really a ghost they're looking at on their screens.

One person suggested what looks like a ghost is probably someone walking in the background of the shot that the production crew tried to edit out.

It's not even the only ghost viewers have seen in the show, as other viewers have spotted more 'ghosts' strolling around in the background of the Prime Video documentary series.

Meanwhile, Mr May himself has commented on the seeming fondness ghosts have for gatecrashing his new show.

Taking to Twitter to address the ghostly figures in his show, he said nobody saw the 'ghost' at the time of filming so it either must be a real phantom or more likely the result of a technical glitch in the footage, which somewhat rains on the paranormal parade.

Others reckon it's a bit of a clever ploy from the team behind James May: Our Man In Italy to create a bit of social media buzz over ghost sightings and get people to watch the show that way.

In footage of the incident nothing seems to throw them down, so clearly it must be the hand of a ghost that likes spending the nights pushing books off of things.

Are ghosts real? We don't know as they're famously tight-lipped on the subject and only really like speaking at length in theatres where a spirit medium happens to be performing.
