In a historic photo from a linen factory featuring Lynda’s grandmother, Ellen McKillop Donnelly, an eerie detail caught attention. Shared on Belfast Live due to its historical significance, viewers noticed an unsettling anomaly: a disembodied hand resting on Ellen’s shoulder. Positioned in the second row on the far right, Ellen had no one physically touching her, and the surrounding women had folded arms. Lynda clarified that no hand in the picture matched the mysterious one. While photographers commonly used double exposure for ghostly effects a century ago, Lynda expressed skepticism about ghosts. Yet, she noted “odd goings-on” around the photo. The inexplicable hand remains a mysterious element, raising questions about its origin and adding an uncanny dimension to the intriguing image.
