Superstitious Romanians have been packing out local churches after a
local woman claimed the ghost of her dead grandmother had taken over her
mobile phone and used it to send a "selfie" from the other side.
Petrified Gina Mihai, 34, 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 was 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."
But now not just Gina and her family had been spending overtime in the local church in Scurtesti in south eastern Romania, but also dozens of other families terrified about the implications of a snake wrapped ghost sending a message from the other side.

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. The food itself is in reality handed
over to the poor at the end of the day, but the gesture is seen as
providing nourishment for those who have passed on 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."
