just wondering if anyone else caught this

[kylehart]

i was looking at google maps (the satellite one) and i found bachelors grove.  when i zoom all the way in, i see several very strange things that appear to be faces... where the pond meets the turnpike i can also see a very clear image of what appears to be a young child.

does anyone else see this or am i just imagining things... i just checked it again and i still see them plain as day.

[kylehart]

i did some reading and read several reports of a young boy and an old man that are sometimes seen in and around the grove... remembering what i saw last night, i go back to google maps- search for midlothian il. and trace the roads to the grove.  when i'm zoomed in, it's f'ing creeeeepy!  where the turnpike meets the lagoon (upper left side) there's definitely a clear image of a young boy.  in the cemetery itself there's a pretty clear (like an old time photo) of a man with a white beard??  and a little less clear image of a woman... i'm just really curious to find out if anyone else sees these... i'm heading out to the grove right now.

ya i see the one of the man with a beard.  Its by the tree right.  Theres a grave right by that tree too. but i bet its just a coincidence.  I bet you could find these kinds of things everywhere. But then again i have no idea what that would be...it is strange.   Have you ever been there?

[kylehart]

yea, i've been a few times.  i've looked all over to see if there were faces that showed up and haven't seen any others... the image of the child by the lagoon (actually mostly on the turnpike) is the creepiest of them all.  i can't figure out why they would show up like that on a satellite photo.
very strange.   i'm wondering if you are catching the same ones that i am... the bearded man and the child look very realistic... not like abstract images, more like old photographs.

[GHunter]

could you screen shot the images with the "Print screen" key and point out exactly where they are in paint or some other program and post it.  We may not be seeing the same thing.

[kylehart]

i can't get the google map to just let me take whats on screen.... maybe i'm not using my brain.  i tried the screen shot to get it in paint or anything else but couldn't.  i'm looking at my 3rd computer and i see it the same on all of them.  

look at the lagoon on highest zoom- look at where the edge meets the road.  now go left just past where the stream passes under the road...
the image of the child standing seems to come from this area where the upper left hand corner of the tunnel under the road is.   he's standing at about a 45 degree angle.  he's huge in comparison to the car to the left of him... why are these here on a satellite image?  i've been trying to find faces this clear anywhere else and i haven't been able to find any.

o i see the boy now... hmm thats wierd, i have no idea what would make that shadow, as well as the bearded man (this ones not even a shadow, i dont know what it is),ya it is strange, i kinda dought its anything paranormal though. good find

[bartok]

I saw this too and I think it is our brain at work but its freaky anyway. Here are the screenshots for those interested­.

The boy shadow on the turnpike:

And here are some other faces I found south east of the entrance of the cemetery:

The one to the right seems to be wearing make-up on the eyes. Anyone else is seeing this?

[kylehart]

wow... the boy is the only one of the images that you have found that i
saw!  i am looking at a different bearded old man in the center of the cemetery... that one with the makeup is soooo-ooo strange.

[GHunter]

ya that is cool, thanks bartok for doing that.  i wonder if u can find stuff like that everywhere.  I looked around briefly but didnt see anything.

[Gents82]

Wow, you must have really been looking for something to notice that. While they slightly resemble people, it's just a shadow. And there were probably people in there that day...its probably just their shadows. Still fun to speculate.

I wonder, maybe with this google thing we can look at the forest and devise an escape route to elude the coppers.

[GHunter]

haha ya if i didnt know the area from satalite view i dont think we would have figured out were we were going when we made our own path through the forest to avoid a ticket.

[GHunter]

ya I found that one too, i thought that was the alleged bearded man

[TheHeartbroken07]

Where'd did you go to find these satelitte images? I am curious to see these faces too. I'm really into this kind of stuff!

[TheHeartbroken07]

I went to google and looked at the satellite maps but I am having a hard time trying to find Bachelors Grove. I mean, I looked up every possible thing and once I got to the actual address of the streets that I got off the bachelors grove.com website, I couldn't find the cemetary. I am going to keep trying, but if anyone can help me IM me on AOL Iamarockstarxoxo this is my AOL account though, not my AIM. IM me if you see me on AIM.! Please, I want to see them!

[por]

the cemetary isnt on the map..u just kinda have to know where to look..
its on 143rd east of ridgeland

[TheHeartbroken07]

Yeah, I seen it. On the tiny map in the lower right hand corner shows Bachelors Grove Woods. I found the faces that the others were talking about. My friends think I am crazy, but I swear on my life I seen it. I shown some friends of mine it too, and some of them say they can, then the others are just saying that it's not true. But I believe what I see.

I took my digital camera up there and shot some photo's. I see two faces in the vegetation in a shot I took of the infant daughter stone. Though everyone calls me crazy. I see them though I guess, because I have been there and felt the place. It's definitely haunted. I love biking up there. Nice creepy trails.
