While some consider ghosts to be expert photobombers, they're certainly not alone in the world of paranormal photobombing. Demons also seem to be quite good at it. In fact, demons might actually be better photobombers than ghosts, which is something Joe Martinez learned a few years ago in the most shocking way. Martinez, who was heavily involved with drugs at the time, went with his wife to his in-laws' wedding anniversary celebration. It was a fairly ordinary party by all accounts.
