The Visible Ghost: Seen by All Living Beings . . . All the Time

By Dante P. Chelossi Jr.

The Visible Ghost tells a tale of a scientist who has an accident inside his laboratory and dies. To his astonishment, and that of everyone else around him, he becomes a ghost who is visible for all to see with their eyes . . . all the time. He does not have the ability to become invisible. Another fascinating detail about him in his ghost form is that his appearance is 100 percent solid, like any living being around him. If someone were to stand next to him, they could have a conversation with him and not in any way ever suspect that he is, in fact, a ghost, because of how solid in form he appears to be. Being a scientist, this ghost is extremely intrigued, even in death, about being a ghost. He decides to investigate and document everything possible about being a ghost for others to understand before he disappears . . . which can be at any moment. At the very least, he has proven to the world that ghosts do, in fact, exist.

Dante P. Chelossi Jr.

This is my fifth book that I have written. I transform my imagination into a fictional story mixed with factual information. I personally like to let my imagination flow through many different categories and maybe create questions to explore and ponder silently with an honest heart. I like to explore things that seem impossible only because someone has not been motivated enough to prove that the possibility might actually become a reality at some point in time. I relax among the redwood forests, beautiful rivers and lakes, and stunning beaches along the Pacific Ocean in the best kept secret in California...Humboldt County.

About the Author

Dedication

I want to dedicate this book to a dear friend of mine who I will never forget. He was one of a few friends who had the ability to make me laugh. I will always remember the times that we spent working together and telling each other our personal stories of our past. I really miss you friend…Gary Hufford.

I promised you the last time we were together that I would get this book to you when it was finally published. Well…here it is Gary. Rest in Peace.

Acknowledgement

I want to give special thanks to the person who made the cover for my latest book titled… The Visible Ghost. His name is Glenn Schauweker. I am very satisfied that he was able to make the cover exactly the way that I described in one of the scenes from this book. He did this quickly and precisely as I had asked, upon hiring him as a respected artist here in Humboldt County, California. I will for sure hire you for my next book cover. Glenn wrote his own statement to put in this section. Here it is… Hi, my name is Glenn Schauweker from Humboldt County… in Eureka, California. I am an artist. First, I would like to give special thanks to the author of this book… The Visible Ghost. For hiring me to do the book cover painting. Thankyou. About myself, the artist…I self taught myself to draw and paint since I was 9 years old. Most of my art has always been original. My influences of painters from the past centuries have been the Dutch, French, and Italian painters. I have mastered various styles…my favorite being story telling art. Also Drag racing art as well. My favorite paint is acrylics. I could be found in Old Town in Eureka, California at Arts alive" every first Saturday of the month.

Chapter 1

T he Livermore valley, located in the Bay Area of San Francisco, California has a scientific research facility called Lawrence Livermore labs.

The year is 2016 and the whole world is in complete turmoil.

So what else is new?

People that work at Lawrence Livermore labs commonly refer to the place as the labs.

A vast majority of employees who work at the labs are scientist’s, or workers that help the scientist’s on science projects.

Almost all of these projects are either rated as Top Secret or in some cases so secret as to not even have a rating at all.

These are generally known as simply Black Projects.

The black projects have a separate secret funding from the government that not even the U.S. Congress knows about.

There is a particular science team…led by a scientist by the name of Eugene Harrison who is in charge of a scientific project that falls into the black project category.

Eugene Harrison is a molecular scientist.

One of his other specialties is Quantum Physics.

He was chosen by the U.S. Government to work on this very secret black project because of his expertise in these two science fields.

Eugene is married more to his work than his actual wife of 17 years…Amanda.

Since Eugene started working on this secret government project at the labs a little over a year and a half, he has hardly spent any time at his lovely townhouse home not far from where he is employed.

Of course, it is only natural that Amanda has suffered from a serious case of loneliness.

As is the case with many people who feel lonely, it is of no surprise that Amanda has been having an affair with a man that she met while working out at the gym where she has a membership.

At first, for Amanda, the affair was only meant to be a fling to release her sexual tension that was built up from the long periods of being alone and not experiencing sex with her husband Eugene.

But…to her surprise, the fling graduated into a full fledged secret relationship that did indeed relieve her of her loneliness and pent-up sexual desires.

As all of this with Amanda was going on, her husband Eugene went about his normal routine…unsuspecting…carrying on with the black project at the labs, and very rarely making his way home.

His mind was very deep into this particular scientific challenge.

Eugene had three people who worked with him as his helpers.

They were all actually very accomplished in their own fields of science, but for this particular project they worked under the direct supervision of Eugene and were hardly ever able to contribute anything from their knowledge of the science’s that they had dedicated their lives to up to this point.

Here and there, a moment in time inside of the lab where they all worked with Eugene, they might question some of the experiment’s and techniques that he was doing, and occasionally give an opinion.

With Eugene, almost 100% of the time, these opinions were simply ignored or dismissed.

Eugene did not trust their opinions at all.

He had a conceit of superiority towards them.

Because of this mistrust of their opinions, there was an underlying feeling unanimously amongst these three helpers that bordered on hatred and desires to quit working with Eugene.

On the other hand, what kept them working in the lab was the overwhelming feelings of utter amazement that occupied their minds as they witnessed some extraordinary events never seen by anyone outside of their assigned lab.

There was also a feeling of pride because of the scientific event’s that they were lucky enough to be a part of…very secretly.

So there was this balance of feelings that they all carried with them every day as they continued their work in the lab with Eugene.

There was a tolerance that was non-stop with these people that was totally necessary in order for Eugene to have a chance at completing this important project.

Maybe, just maybe, someday their names might be mentioned if this project turned-out to be a success.

If this experiment turned-out to actually be successful, and have an impact upon the people throughout the world, then eventually their names might in fact be mentioned, and with that, certainly their career’s would be affected one way or the other.

Only time in the future would be witness to this heady possibility.

So…today was just another day in the lab with Eugene.

Everyday working in the lab with Eugene, the team would have to follow precise instructions for usually 8 to 10 hours with very few breaks for eating or resting.

Today, Eugene was going to attempt a preliminary experiment that could be considered dangerous by most people.

An experiment that actually never had been attempted before in any lab in the world at anytime in history.

Because of potential danger’s that could possibly cause physical injuries, or possibly even death, Eugene would be the person to perform this first of it’s kind experiment.

After explaining to his team what he was going to attempt to do, all of the member’s were mutually relieved that they would not be in any danger as the experiment transpired.

One way or the other, they would be witnesses to either glorious success or horrific failure.

They were all given their specific instructions in setting up this experiment for Eugene in the lab, and after they were finished, they would all relocate to a safer area behind a Plexiglass partition to be observer’s and witnesses as Eugene made an attempt to shock the world of science.

If this preliminary test went well, it would be tremendously extraordinary, but it would only be a precursor to the much larger final experiment that was yet to come.

After four and a half hours of setting up everything for this experiment for Eugene, they were finally finished, and all three waited behind the Plexiglass for their boss to start.

They all felt very nervous, scared, and excited at the same time because of the unknown results that were going to be witnessed within the hour.

Chapter 2

E ugene entered the lab very casually.

He had an extreme feeling of excitement and a hope for success bathing through his entire body from head to toes.

Today would potentially be the day where he could come very close…if successful, and be only a few short steps away from total unimaginable success that would truly shock the entire world.

Today could be the day where he might be able to prove to everyone in the scientific community that Quantum Physics was not a junk science full of theories that were doubted when compared to Einstein’s proven theories.

It was hard enough to convince the many doubter’s throughout the scientific world that some of his extreme theories were indeed provable, let alone to be actually in a position, in a controlled setting, to attempt to prove something that had only been read about in science fiction novels.

It was already understood that the entire world was made up of atoms and molecules for…everything.

Eugene was hired by the government to find out if it was possible to be able to manipulate and control atoms and molecules.

Eugene, with the help of his team, had after many month’s of meticulous and very laborious hands on work, physically and mentally, built a machine that would hopefully be able to test Eugene’s theory of atom and molecule control.

Everyone was now staring at the machine in the center of the lab room that might be able to test this unbelievable theory of invisible manipulation.

Eugene stood a mere ten feet away from this machine.

Eugene glanced over at the three people behind the Plexiglass.

There was a microphone in front of them for direct communication with Eugene.

Not a single word was spoken between them.

They just silently stood there watching Eugene.

On a table nearby there was a pair of UV dark tinted sunglasses.

Eugene picked the sunglasses up and put them on to cover his eyes.

Eugene then motioned with his left hand towards the people behind the Plexiglass window.

They responded by also putting on their own pairs of UV sunglasses that matched the tint of what Eugene was wearing inside the lab.

Next, Eugene walked back to the wall and turned a dial that controlled the lighting in the room.

He slowly turned the dial and made the light in the room much dimmer.

The room finally was at a level of light that could be compared to sitting in a shaded area on a clear day.

Eugene now walked over to the machine and stood next to it and stared at it for a few more moments.

Finally…he felt within his soul that it was the exact time to start the experiment with this machine.

There was a keyboard on the table next to this machine.

The machine had a metallic tube that protruded from the center and ran straight to a small metal box.

This box was actually a miniature microwave, but a thousand times more powerful than a conventional everyday microwave used commercially in a million places around the world as a common appliance.

At one end of the larger machine was a rotating disc that was engineered to retain two polar opposites beyond magnetic north…at the same time.

In reality, the disc was actually two separate disc’s that were so close to each other…(one thousandth’s of a millimeter) that the naked eye could only observe it as a single rotating disc.

On the other side of this machine there was another small tube that housed a very powerful green laser beam.

Once Eugene turned on this machine by using the keyboard for activation and control of power, this green laser beam would shoot through the tube straight through the rotating magnetically equal disc’s and then immediately proceed onward to the small metal, very powerful microwave.

Inside of this microwave was a sterilized cube of 100% iron one inch squared.

The green laser beam would come into contact with this iron cube and hopefully disintegrate into invisible molecular particles that could be observed and manipulated by Eugene with the keyboard.

On the wall of the lab was a giant screen that showed the inside of the small powerful microwave where the iron cube particles awaited for Eugene to manipulate.

The hope was that Eugene would be able to manipulate the invisible iron particles and utilize the magnetic disc’s to move these particles to another sterile metallic box directly next to the microwave.

There was a small flap on this box that could be compared to a doggy door commonly used by dogs to enter and exit a household.

Hopefully, the iron particles could be transferred from the microwave to the other box by using the green laser beam, but redirected by a silver coated mirror that opened up inside the microwave.

Once the iron particles, still invisible, redirected to this other box, the iron particles would travel through the flap and become trapped, and relocated inside.

Once these iron particles became trapped, and after a measurement was completed by Eugene by utilizing the keyboard.

He would then verify that 100% of all of the disintegrated iron particles were indeed trapped within the box, and then try and manipulate these iron particles back into it’s original cubed shape.

Two separate video camera’s from different angles were on the record mode setting.

Eugene started to hit the keys on the keyboard.

Going slower than normal so no mistake would be made by accidentally hitting the wrong key in the wrong sequence.

Eugene typed on the keyboard for several minutes, stopping every now and then to look at the large screen on the wall and also at his team of helper’s behind the Plexiglass.

Finally, Eugene reached the point in the sequence where all he had to do was hit the command key.

He stopped once again…looked-up to his team, and silently nodded to all three of them.

All three of them nodded back at him in confirmation.

At the very instant, and as quick as a person could blink their eyes, when Eugene pressed the command button on the control keyboard, the entire room flashed a blinding color of green.

The color of green was exactly the same tint as the green laser beam that had just been engaged.

This blinding green light lasted for almost a full four seconds.

After this four seconds ended, the room went back to how it was before Eugene had engaged the green laser beam.

Now…what appeared in the room was a scary sight.

Eugene was sprawled out on the floor a few feet from where he had been just sitting.

There did nor appear to be any movement coming from Eugene on the floor.

Elsewhere, behind the Plexiglass, the three people who had been observers were waving their arms and screaming in almost perfect unison.

They were all screaming the same thing…they could not see with their eyes.

They were all blinded!!

Even though they had all been wearing special UV sunglasses to protect their eyes, they still frantically complained about their eyesight’s being lost.

So…obviously, they were not able to see Eugene laying motionless on the ground inside of the test area of the lab only a few yards away from them.

Their immediate concerns were more for themselves and their blindness at the moment.

They were not even thinking about if Eugene was alright, or how the experiment might have turned out.

Even after a long five minutes, there was still no movement from Eugene.

One of the three members of Eugene’s team finally got a hold of her senses enough to realize that somehow, she needed to contact someone for help.

She rose to her feet and turned behind her and took a few short steps toward to where the wall was.

Once she felt the surface of the wall, she slid her hands and feet at the same time to her left.

She slowly moved for about eight feet and then her hands felt a phone on the wall.

She desperately grabbed the phone and quickly put it to her ear.

Next, she felt the buttons on the phone base.

She lightly felt buttons one by one until she was sure that she knew where the zero…or operator button was located.

She pressed this button and hoped that she was correct.

Luckily…she was correct.

The phone started to ring in her ear.

After the second ring, a voice answered.

Hello, this is the base operator, may I help you?

The blinded woman practically screamed in the phone receiver at the operator on the other end.

This is an emergency, I need help right away!!

There is an emergency here at laboratory 2525.

There has been a terrible accident, and I need for you to send over some medical personnel to help me and my coworker’s.

There are four of us here who are in dire need of medical attention right now!!

Please hurry!!

The operator tried to ask what the medical emergency was, but was rudely cut-off with a generic often heard statement around the base… it is confidential, and I cannot talk about it.

Just please get the medical people here…now!!

The operator assured the frantic woman that she would immediately dispatch medical personnel to her location, and they should be there within a few minutes.

Within five minutes there were three ambulances parked outside of the building along with a fire department truck, where laboratory 2525 was located.

The EMT’s quickly attended to the three people who still could not see with their eyes.

Other EMT’s carefully put Eugene on a gurney and started an immediate transport to a hospital that was located off base.

Eugene was alive, but his vital signs were plummeting in the direction of possible death.

The EMT’s worked on Eugene in the back of the ambulance while the driver sped quickly towards the hospital.

They tried all of the medical techniques that they could to prevent Eugene from dying before they could get him to the hospital.

All of a sudden, Eugene’s heart stopped!!

The heart beat monitoring machine now indicated what is called… flat-line across the screen.

Quickly, the EMT’s tried every procedure possible to get Eugene’s heart to start beating again.

They tried desperately for several minutes, but still had no response at all from Eugene.

The ambulance was now only a few blocks away from the hospital with it’s emergency siren blaring loudly.

The hospital emergency personnel were contacted about Eugene’s dire condition, and were already standing by the ambulance loading zone just outside the emergency room entrance doors.

Less then a minute went by, and the ambulance pulled into the loading zone.

The emergency medical personnel quickly transferred Eugene to a room inside of the hospital.

Eugene was now surrounded by several medical professional’s.

A Doctor, three nurses, and the EMT’s who transported Eugene from laboratory building 2525 from the base.

An adrenaline shot was put directly into Eugene’s heart.

The electrical paddles were being charged for a direct shock to Eugene’s chest area near his heart.

All of a sudden…an utterly amazing thing started to happen before the eyes of all of the people surrounding Eugene.

An off white colored solid looking form started to rise from Eugene’s body.

This form started to float upwards about four and a half feet above Eugene’s body.

Everyone present were stunned and amazed at the sight of this unusual form floating above Eugene’s body.

There were many mixed feelings at this moment amongst these people who were witnessing this extraordinary event.

There was amazement, curiosity, confusion, fear, and a whole lot of more unexplainable emotions being experienced within this hospital emergency room full of medical professional’s whose belief’s contradicted what was happening before their eyes.

This off white form now started to look like it was becoming more defined in it’s shape.

It continued to float silently above Eugene’s body.

The shape started to mirror the exact shape of Eugene’s body!!

Someone blurted out… Is that a ghost?

Nobody answered this question.

Everyone stood motionless and continued to watch this floating form take shape.

Now the form slowly floated down towards the floor and stopped in a vertical position.

It now appeared to be in a position that looked like it was standing upright.

Effort’s to try and revive Eugene had stopped completely as this unreal, unbelievable, unexplainable event was occurring.

Now this form started to change color from the off white that it was, to a multiple maze of differing color’s.

Once again, to everyone’s amazement, they all watched these color’s morph into the exact color’s as…Eugene.

This metamorphosis happened very quickly.

It was completed within twenty five second’s.

Now…standing before these medical professional’s was a form that was an exact twin of Eugene!!

Amazingly, there was no transparency at all.

The form looked as solid as Eugene’s dead body on the gurney nearby.

Everyone in the room remained motionless and totally shocked and stunned.

They were paralyzed by this unusual sight before their eyes.

Their voice boxes did not at the moment have the ability to utter not even a single word between them.

This new Eugene now did something that was just as unbelievable as the materialization.

It spoke as it looked at the original Eugene on the nearby gurney.

What is happening here?

Is that me lying there…dead?

Oh my God!!

Do something!!

Save me!!

Bring me back!!

The Doctor who was holding the electric paddles was so shocked by what he was witnessing with this second Eugene talking to all of them, that he dropped the electric paddles to the ground.

A few of the other people in the room gasped while they were transfixed on this second figure of Eugene.

The second Eugene walked over to where his earthly physical body laid and stood over it.

I am dead!!

One of the nurses fainted hard to the ground, her fall not caught by anyone.

The second Eugene ignored this and hollered once again at the people in the room… I am dead!!

Oh my God!!

Oh my God!!

The second Eugene turned his head back and forth and glared at all of the people in the room and spoke again.

So you can all see me?

I am a ghost?

I thought that ghost’s were not real!!

If there is such a thing as a ghost, am I not supposed to be invisible to all of you?

Finally, a Doctor spoke.

As hard as it is for me to believe that I am in fact looking at you and now speaking to you, I now know for sure that ghost’s do indeed exist in this world of ours.

You are proof Eugene.

The fact that all of us in this room can also see you prove’s that ghosts do in fact really exist.

I am sorry that we could not save you from death.

We tried our best, but unfortunately death was supposed to be the ultimate outcome for you.

The ghost of Eugene replied : I am a scientist…all of this, what has happened to me, is supposed to be impossible.

Yet…all of you can see me and hear me speak?

Eugene looked at everyone as he made these comments.

Everyone, in unison, shook their heads up and down silently to affirm that yes was the answer to this question.

Eugene’s ghost continued to speak.

So…I am dead, and apparently I am what people would call a ghost.

Ghost’s are supposed to be invisible to the human eye, but I am a visible ghost.

I am very sure…actually, very positive, that I am the first ghost that could ever be seen and heard by everyone.

I an still a scientist, even though I am dead.

So…being the scientist that I am, I want someone to document this before I vanish into thin air and become a normal invisible ghost.

In life, I never became famous for any of my supposed scientific accomplishments.

But now…I have an opportunity to become known throughout the entire world as the one who proved that ghost’s do in fact exist.

My existence as a ghost is going to totally shock all living humans to no end.

Believe me when I tell all of you, that I was amongst the people who were very skeptical of the existence of ghosts.

I now am in a race to answer as many questions about ghosts as possible because for all I know, I can disappear at any moment, and where would that leave all of you?

Everyone would just think that all of you had a massive hallucination, or maybe that you are all lying, and maybe trying to make some money with this lie.

What about my wife Amanda?

Has she been contacted yet?

I need to see and talk to her as soon as possible.

Chapter 3

A manda came through her front door of her house.

She had just finished an all day session with her secret lover.

She was not surprised at all to see that her husband Eugene was not at home.

She instantly knew this as soon as she pulled her vehicle into the driveway of her home.

His white 1976 Stingray Corvette was not parked in the driveway.

They did not have a garage for their home.

They had an open circular drive around driveway.

Amanda walked by the telephone message machine and noticed the red light blinking.

She pressed the playback button and stood their silently to listen to the message that came into the recording machine.

Right away, the message had her complete attention.

It started out with a male voice that said he was a Doctor at a hospital not more than ten minutes drive from her house.

The Doctor spoke straight to the point.

Your husband Eugene has been in a life threatening accident.

You need to come to the hospital right away.

Everything, in regards to Eugene will be explained to you as soon as you get here at the hospital.

That was all the Doctor said in the message.

It turned out that there was actually three more messages left on the machine that still needed to be listened too.

The next two turned out not to be important.

The fourth and last message turned out to be similar to the first message on the machine from the Doctor.

This message was from where Eugene worked at Lawrence Livermore Labs.

There was no real detail to this message either.

It simply said that Eugene had been in a terrible accident, and that he had been taken by ambulance to the hospital where the Doctor was who had already left the first message on the answering machine.

Amanda was out the door of her house moments later.

A million thoughts, all at once, streamed through her brain.

How bad was the accident?

How badly injured was Eugene?

The Doctor on the message machine suggested that it might be a life threatening accident.

These were the first two initial questions in her head that came to the forefront.

Slight guilt now entered into the mix of thoughts and emotions as she started her car’s ignition.

She quickly got on the road and traveled slightly above the speed limit to get to the hospital.

Normally, ten minutes…Today? Right now?…Just past seven minutes and Amanda was entering the hospital parking area’s.

Amanda exited her vehicle quickly and walked at a very fast pace toward’s the emergency room entrance.

Amanda quickly found the check-in desk and right away asked about where she might find her husband Eugene.

The check-in nurse asked Amanda to please sit and wait like everyone else.

To Amanda’s, and the nurse who just asked her to be seated, a Doctor came out of a secure hallway that was guarded by a security officer, and greeted her…solemnly.

Just the look on his face was enough for Amanda to figure out that whatever Eugene’s condition was…it probably was not very good.

Amanda followed the Doctor into the secured hallway and directly to an office.

The Doctor asked Amanda to please take a seat.

Amanda sat down and waited for him to speak to her.

It turned out that this was also the same Doctor who had left a message on her recording machine.

It was also the same Doctor who had…to his utter amazement, had watched Eugene’s ghost materialize from Eugene’s dead body.

The Doctor began to speak very slowly.

Eugene was involved in a terrible accident at his workplace.

I was the Doctor who attended to him when he arrived at the emergency room of this hospital.

What I am about to tell you is sad…but also very unbelievable.

Amanda instantly at
