BEVERLY

Beverly Sharp said Tuesday she wasn't sure what she saw reflected on her bedroom door until she captured it on video.

And then she knew.

"I played that back so many times," the 53-year-old substitute teacher said. "I know it's the image of a soul."

Ghost, spirit, being -- whatever you call it, Sharp said God "allowed" her to video what to skeptics may look like a dark object skittering across a screen.

Her husband, 57-year-old Roy, thinks the image is "a spirit running toward the cemetery." The couple lives in an apartment complex not far from Beverly National Cemetery.

South Jersey Paranormal Research, an organization that investigates such phenomena, provides an entire page on its Web site devoted to examinations of paranormal activity at area graveyards.

Monday morning began like this: Sharp was in bed praying and resting. She saw an image on her bedroom door, which was open to the dining room.

"It was something heavenly, something beautiful," she recalled.

She rushed to get her video camera, all the while murmuring, "Don't go away. Don't go away."

She can't really describe how it looked when she returned, and when asked why, she said, "You can't see a ghost, can you?"

Substitute teacher Beverly Sharp videotaped a mysterious image she says was in her Beverly home.

What did Roy see?

"I was asleep," the retired mechanic said.

The video playback convinced her the image was a being reflected on her door from one hovering outside.

"It's phenomenal," she said. "It's phenomenal, plain and simple."

Asked if what she saw could have been the result of late-night indigestion or early-morning hangover, she replied, "Nothing like that."

Spirits don't scare her, she said. There is no need to call in the Ghostbusters.

"I am not afraid of the unknown, nor am I in pursuit of it," Sharp said.

Viewers of the video will have to decide for themselves what they are seeing.
