'It is my belief that the spirit of man is eternal, and free to communicate with the living,' claimed photographer William H. Mumler (1832-1884).  He also claimed he could take pictures of ghosts with his camera.

Mumler's photo of Mrs. Lincoln shows the ghost of her husband standing above her, his hand on her shoulder.
