It was a time when spiritualism was hugely popular and there was a mystique surrounding photography's process. And British photographer William Hope made the most of a 1920s society that yearned to learn more about the paranormal to produce this striking set of 'spirit photographs' which had the world captivated at the time. Mr Hope - who was part of the infamous Crewe Circle, a spiritualist photography group in the Staffordshire town - was supported by many of his contemporaries including Sherlock Holmes author Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. But his work was later discredited after investigators discovered that he had used a photographic process called double exposure, where a single image is created by exposing the film several times.

The picture, taken by photographer George Steinmetz in 2005 and posted to Playbuzz , has gone viral. Despite looking like a normal photograph, the picture does in fact appear to be an optical illusion which some people can see and others can't. So, can you?

Xav Marseille, 39, stood on the same spot as photographers up to 100 years ago before merging his new pictures with old snaps of Colchester (pictured), Essex. He hoped to create a glimpse of the past with the fascinating artwork, which shows the vast contrast between life now and a century ago. Xav said: 'I think people crave nostalgia. 2016 was a changing year and people relate to history now a lot more than they used to. I think the more striking artwork is where there are old people in the picture because it's almost ghostly and eerie to see them today.' The earliest record of Colchester's existence is a reference by the Roman writer, Pliny the Elder in AD77. In describing the island of Anglesey, he wrote that 'it is about 200 miles from Camulodunum, a town in Britain'.
