Couple find baby Jesus on kitchen wall

A couple decorating their home had the fear of God put into them after an image of the baby Jesus appeared on their kitchen wall. Stunned Sheila and Richard Woolhouse were stripping old wallpaper from their kitchen when they spotted the religious incarnation.

The eerie damp marking appears to show a baby wrapped in linen – with eyes, nose, mouth and hair clearly defined. Sheila, 63, of St Austell, Cornwall, says the image looks like the baby Messiah.



She said: ”It’s spooky – it looks like the baby Jesus. They way it looks like a child wrapped in swaddling – it really has got religious connotations. ”The more you look at it, the more real it becomes. A few of the neighbours and friends have been round and they have been surprised by it as well.”

Richard added: ”We’ve lived here for 23 years but never noticed the image until we decided to take out a small wall in the kitchen area. I do believe in the after life and there have been a few strange goings-on in here over the years.”

Looks like a bowling pin to me.  A bowling pin with a face.

Poor baby Jesus has no arms and legs!

So...they go from claiming their wall looks like the baby jesus, to saying their house is haunted? Where's the connectivity there...?

The Holy Ghost, perhaps?
