As you can see from the picture to your left, there are what appears to be various orbs. I would like to point out though, that the caves are naturally very dusty and this could well be a probable cause for these particular orbs. The picture was, however, taken some time after people had walked by this area...
The picture to your right again shows what appears to be an orb.
For those of you not familiar with orbs, it is the spherical shape just to the bottom right of the barrel and lighted area of the picture.
It should be pointed out here, that this area of the cave is not open for the public to walk around, unlike the first picture. It is a roped off area and this picture was taken using the zoom lens.

Another area of the caves roped off to the public.
There are more apparent orbs visible here, the most obvious one being next to the "bomb". Can you spot the others?

I am told by a member of staff, that the caves are apparently quite an active place. The member of staff concerned has mentioned alleged sightings of spiritual beings. However, I am not at liberty to support or refute such comments, as I have not personally witnessed anything in the caves, albeit in the daytime. The comments were not made at the time of visiting the caves...
I am not aware that the caves are actually open to the general public for night time vigils. If I find out otherwise, I will make comment on this page and conduct an investigation, should this be the case.
