GHOSTS, ghouls and the unexplained were featured in an exhibition at the Blackburn Museum and Art Gallery.

The exhibition, entitled The Unexplained, included photographs of the paranormal phenomena ranging from Bigfoot to Nessie and from alien abduction to poltergeist activity.

Recently-released images of the Roswell autopsy were also included among the 100 mysterious images.

Professional photographer Ian Beesley spent time at the museum explaining how some of the more famous hoax photographs were created.
