Editor: Can you believe this picture? What an exciting news story! I sent my best reporter to interview the teacher who took this photograph of a GHOST! Here is a transcript of the interview.
Reporter: Who are you?
Teacher: I am the Computer teacher at Hector Thiboutot Community School in Sandy Bay, Saskatchewan, Canada.
Reporter: What did you do?
Teacher: I photographed our school ghost.
Reporter: When did you take the photograph?
Teacher: I took the photograph one weekend when I was working in the school by myself.
Reporter: Why did you take the photograph?
Teacher: I took the photograph to show the students and staff a picture of our school ghost.
Reporter: Where was the photograph taken?
Teacher: The photograph was taken in the front lobby of our school.
Reporter: Were you afraid?
Teacher: No I was not afraid. A community elder once told me that our school ghost would not hurt people that are good.
Reporter: What do you have to do to be good?
Teacher: The elder told me that to be good you have to:
Reporter: What happens to people that are bad?
Teacher: When someone is bad the school ghost will cause lots of problems for the bad person. The school ghost will try to chase the bad person away from the school.
Reporter: Is this the first time that you have seen the school ghost?
Teacher: No, I have been trying to take a picture of our school ghost for a few months now. Let me show you a few pictures.
Here is a picture of the computer lab when the ghost was not there. When I take a picture with my camera the lights in the room give off an orange glow.
Here is a picture of the computer lab on a day when the ghost was playing hide-and-seek with me. The ghost hid every time I picked up my camera to take a picture. Notice how everything in the room turns a greenish colour when the ghost is nearby.
Here is a picture of the school lobby about five minutes after the ghost walked past me. Can you see any difference in colour between this photograph and the next photograph?
Reporter: Yes I can see the difference in the colour of the photographs.
Reporter: Why are some of the computers on the floor in the photos?
Teacher: These photographs were taken just after my school received a truck load of second-hand computers. On the day these photographs were taken I was busy in the computer lab replacing many of our old broken computers with the second-hand computers. That is why it looks like there are computer parts all over the place.
Reporter: Did you clean up your mess?
Teacher: Yes! When I finished working I cleaned up my mess and put all of the broken computer parts in the garbage.
Reporter: How did the school ghost react to the arrival of the second-hand computers in the school?
Teacher: I do not think the school ghost knows how to use a computer. The school ghosts does like playing games like hide-and-seek when I am alone in the computer lab setting up the computers for my students.
Reporter: Does the school ghost have a name?
Teacher: I do not think so. Maybe you should ask the community elders that question.
Reporter: Thank you for letting me interview you.
Teacher: You are welcome. Good-bye.
Reporter: Good-bye.
