Woman receives selfie from the ghost of her grandmother

Mrs Mihai believes she was contacted from the
‘other side’

A Romanian woman has claimed her dead
grandmother has contacted her from beyond the
grave – by sending her a selfie.

Gina Mihai, 34, said she found a picture of her
deceased grandmother on her phone and believes
her spirit is reaching out for help after a fortune
teller said her grandmother was being punished
‘in the other life’.
Churches in Scurtesti in the south-eastern part of
the country have been packed with locals praying
on Mrs Mihai’s behalf.
‘When I switched the phone on I was horrified to
see my dead grandmother’s 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.
Mrs Mihai believes that she may be partly to
blame for her grandmother’s punishment by not
taking food to her grave – a traditional tribute
paid during the Romanian feast of the service of
alms.
