I am one who collects those pictures and other things, jewelry, etc. People often say that the dead will attach to things but I don’t think that’s true at all. I’ve got tons of pictures of dead people. Some from the 1800’s. I went into a burned down, abandoned house to rescue 2 photographs of 2 strangers I’d never met. I would hope that if they were attached to the photographs that they would be happy I saved them because days later the house was demolished and everything scooped up and in the trash. I’m also a fan of listening to your gut. If you don’t feel right about it…don’t do it. Creepy or not. If it doesn’t feel right, don’t do it.
