This was a whole Victorian trend called spirit photography where you take pics in different angles and lighting to make it look like the deceased persons ghost is in the picture. It’s not real lol.
is he alive?
No. It was actually a service provided by the mortuary, to take this kind of pictures. And it was kind of common, indeed.
No. That’s why, it’s called a wake.
It’s an Irish/Catholic tradition.
Folks died at home, and the family sat by her/his side, to check, if people woke up again.
Even during a funeral dude came as a ghost.
He’s looking like “yo, I’m right here. Admiring my now dead body. I haven’t crossed the other side yet.”
