STILL PHOTOS of the DEAD


I am wondering who took the stills of the post-mortem shots and who worked on the digital photoshopping to add ectoplasm in the stills that run during the end credits. The site says Allen Fraser was the stills photographer, but I didn't see anything posted on his site. The shots were pretty impressive so I would like to know who did them. Very creepy

The post-mortems were probably authentic. Many, many exist.

Some of them looked authentic, but some looked a bit questionable.

I'm convinced someONE did these recently based on image quality. I know there are lots of authentics, but the work was all very similar and consistant - like they were shot by the same person. I just posted a second topic on this without remembering that I posted this topic. Thanks for the feedback you two - if you hear anything else, let me know. There's good spirit photos on flickr as well - lots of "authentic" double exposure and old trick photography stuff. fun.

I don't know if the ones shown in the movie were real, but there are tons of them out there & tons of people who collect them. It's sad that people find them so creepy now when it was such an important, respected form of art at the time.
