EDITORS COMMENTS
This haunting and eerie print captures a moment in time from 1908, titled "AT COCK-CROW (The spirits of the dead return to their graves at cock-crow)." The image depicts a scene shrouded in mystery and folklore, as apparitions of the deceased are said to be returning to their final resting places as the rooster crows.
The traditional belief in paranormal activity and ghostly encounters is vividly portrayed in this historical snapshot. The figures seem ethereal and otherworldly, adding an air of spookiness to the already chilling atmosphere.
As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back to a time when superstition and spirituality intertwined with everyday life. The notion of spirits revisiting their graves at dawn is both fascinating and unsettling, reminding us of our own mortality and the mysteries that lie beyond.
Through this photograph, we are given a glimpse into a bygone era where beliefs in the supernatural held sway over people's minds. It serves as a reminder of how history is filled with stories that blur the lines between reality and myth, leaving us pondering on what lies beyond our earthly realm.
Overall, "AT COCK-CROW" is not just a mere photograph but a window into a world where ghosts roam freely at nightfall, beckoned back to their eternal slumber by the crowing of nature's alarm clock.
