Do dead take pictures? The woman claims that her dead grandmother has tried to contact her from the other world, by sending her a selfie

This supposed ghost selfie ‘taken by a dead grandmother’ has Romanians spooked.

Petrified Gina Mihai, 34, claims the spirit of her deceased grandma is reaching out in a desperate message for help.

Locals have been packing out churches to pray for her after a fortune teller claimed she was being punished ‘in the other life’ for her sins.

Gina said: “When I switched the phone on I was horrified to see my dead grandmother’s face.

“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.

“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 as a symbol of the fact that she was being punished in the other life for some sin.

“By contacting us she was telling us that if we were to pray for her, we would still be able to save her soul.”

Now dozens of other families have joined them at churches across the town to pray for her grandmother.

In Romania once a year there is a feast, the Service of Alms, in which Romanians travel to the local graveyard and hand over food as a gesture to the spirits in the afterlife.

Gina said: “My grandmother died three years ago and I haven’t taken any food for her to the graveyard.

“I was making doughnuts at the time and didn’t want to get the phone dirty so I put it in my pocket, and when I took it out there was the image on the phone.

“The fortune-teller told me that was a mistake not to have paid tribute to her with an offering of food, and it was significant that she contacted me while I was cooking. I have taken doughnuts to the cemetery every day since then.”

Florica Mihai, 45, another relative, said: “The village priest told me that we need to do 40 Days of Alms to make up for those that we missed and we are doing it now. We want to help her soul to be saved.”
