Not everything we see is what it seems. And in times when visions of ghosts or strange figures take over social networks, a rare creature captured by Google Maps Create confusion in the world.

In UK castles abound and each one usually carries with it a mysterious legend associated with the apparitions.

This is the case of a castle located in Ludlow, England, very close to the Welsh border. And long ago it attracted attention to the point of producing shivers.

users of Google StreetViewthe integrated service Google Maps which allows internet users to locate themselves to a location in any mapped place, have discovered a disturbing find in Ludlow.

It’s a human head, of a woman, from which two boots emerge.

But not to be alarmed, it’s actually nothing more than a little one program failure which has generated all sorts of hilarious comments on forums like Reddit.

“You can only see it once and no more because then I can’t sleep,” said one network user. Along the same lines, one woman warned: “Every time I see notes that insinuate the presence of ghosts or paranormal phenomena It attracts me, but at the same time it scares me.”

Another wrote to clarify the doubts: “I don’t understand how there are still people who are afraid of images, since most of them are usually modified or with a defect like in this case.”

How it works and the hidden truth

Google Street View works by doing thousands of 360º photoswhich he then assembles to compose the final result of a road, a monument or a path.

But, you know, sometimes this assembly not 100% accurate.. This is exactly what happens in the photo that went viral.

Surely the girl who appears in the image moved during the photos and during the stitching of the images, his body was cut off.

Following them, a pair of slippers can be seen next to the woman. These images come from March 2016 And, while the tech giant has since uploaded new Street View shots of the castle, people can still check out older versions.
