Ecto Mist
Many years ago gypsies and spirit mediums conducted seances for those folks that wanted to speak with their relatives that had passed away. And sometimes an ecto mist would appear from such a session. It appeared that these spirit mediums were gifted to be able to get in contact with the spirit world. In some of their sessions the spirit sometimes would talk through the person that was the medium of such a session. Then the candles would start to flicker and an ecto mist or ecto plasm would appear.
At the present time ghost hunters or paranormal investigators use 35mm camera, digital camera or a video camera and capture ecto mist on film. Through the years to present day, this mist has been called many things. From Ecto Mist to Ecto Plasm. From a Vapor to a Ghostly mist. Amateurs that are in the field of capturing these various forms call it a fog or mist of some sort.
The afore mentioned types of Ecto Mist forms usually display a swirl effect within a vaporous cloud. This type of mist usually is about seven feet off the ground and can travel very quickly at will. There have been numerous photos of this fog or mist from all over the world that were caught on film. In about 75% of the photos taken it appears the usual colors are Gray, White or Black. Although these mists have also been noted to show in several other colors .
It is important to remember that when trying to capture a mist form that you take precautions in cold weather. because your breath could produce what appears to be an Ecto Mist form. It will show as a mist form but without the swirl effect in the photo. This would then be a false picture taken. Also do not smoke while taking pictures, for this will produce the same effect as your breath in cold weather. See Photos below
