Romanian Gina Mihai says the selfie magically appeared on her cell phone. She believes Grandma is reaching into this plane for help because she is being punished in the afterlife.
Churches in Scurtesti in the south-eastern part of the country have been packed with locals praying on Mrs Mihais behalf.
When I switched the phone on I was horrified to see my dead grandmothers face, she said.
She had what looked like a snake around her neck, and the whole image looked as if it had been taken through a hole, like it was shot through a tear in the fabric that separates the living from the dead.
She continued: I took it to a fortune teller who told me that my grandmother was sending me a message from the other side, the snake around her neck was a symbol of the fact that she was being punished in the other life for some sin.

That woman missed her calling. She's a natural storyteller. Or...maybe this is how it's being expressed. Hi to Grandma!

(34,120 posts)I'd like to see a picture of her granny to see how much that shot resembles the old lady!
In the so-called selfie looks like she's about 18-years old.
Grandma? Some grandma that is.
