By Popular Request: Our Paranormal Photo and Video Contest
is Back and Better Than Ever!
For more information on how to take great paranormal photographs, please read our article, "Photographing the Paranormal: Capturing the Unseen."
2025 Terrell Paranormal Ghost Walk Photo and Video Contest
We're finalizing details, but here's what we have so far.
Why Your Images Matter to Us
At Terrell Ghosts, we’re excited to see the photos you’ve captured on our tours! It’s incredible what you can discover when you’re observant. While we focus on providing tour details, some fascinating sights may go unnoticed. With infrared cameras, you can spot things beyond our normal vision. You might miss a shadowy figure with your eyes, but through your lens, it could come to life. We’ve encountered even stranger phenomena!
Our Fans Hold the Power to Decide the Contest Winners, Not the Team
As your tour guides, we refrain from commenting on your photographs for a couple of reasons:
- We didn't take the photos, so we lack the context needed for meaningful insights.
- Maintaining an air of mystery enriches the experience for everyone involved.
- Our journey began with a puzzling photograph that we later learned more about, but it was that initial intrigue that fueled our passion for the paranormal. Embrace the unknown and let your own experiences unfold!
Instead, we hold a photo contest at the end of the season (Nov-Dec 2025), with judging handled by our social media followers to ensure fairness and impartiality.
Here's just a couple ghostly photos, with and without filters, to see examples:
Guest photo taken in the Anderson Building Basement
Guest photo taken in the Bass Rutledge Drug Store Window
Three Submissions Will Be Chosen by Our Followers
- Best Possible Paranormal Photo
- Best General Photo (Not Paranormal)
- Best Video (Possibly Paranormal or General)
Each Winner Will Receive
- $100 allocated across gift cards, complimentary merchandise, rental vouchers, premium services, online training, and events.
Deadlines, Contest Dates, and Winner Announcements Will Be Announced in October.
Submissions, through this page on the website, will need to be uploaded by the end of November 2025.
- Do you have photos to submit from previous tours? We are happy to take previous photo and video as long as it was taken in 2025.
Do you wish you had taken more videos or photos during your tour?
- Just Contact Us and we will work something out for you to come during another tour specifically for photos/video.
More details to come on how we rank rewards.
Submitting Your Photos and Videos
We invite you to share your photos on social media for immediate feedback, but please remember to submit your photo or video below so we can include it in the queue for voting day. We want to ensure that all intended videos are included and avoid missing any posts by mistake.
Please make sure to add a small name watermark to your photo and include your full name, email address, and phone number so we can reach you. Any submitted photos may be utilized in future promotions, and credit will be provided for your submission.
For Edited or Indirect Photos and Videos:
It is preferable to receive an unedited photo directly from the device it was captured on (SD Cards are acceptable as well). This helps us verify the authenticity of the photograph to ensure it hasn't been used in any programs that could lead to disqualification from the contest.
Upload Your Photos Below For Submission
Please upload your photos for the contest. We'll ensure they are entered when the contest starts. The name you provide below will be used to add a watermark to your photo.
Preferably, submit the original photograph without cropping, marks, filters, or modifications. Use the space provided to share any details about the photograph.
