Ghostly Figure on Security Camera? Experts Offer a Different Explanation

A homeowner in Australia has shared unsettling security camera footage appearing to show a shadowy figure descending their stairs at night. The video, posted by user Prestigious_Bedr1998, quickly went viral, sparking debate about whether it depicts a ghost or a technical glitch. "It moves with mass… not like a typical shadow," said the homeowner in their video description. However, experts in digital imaging have offered a different perspective. They explained that low-light compensation features in modern cameras can sometimes produce unusual visual artifacts, particularly in near-darkness. This could explain the appearance of the shadowy figure. While the mystery remains partially unsolved, the incident serves as a reminder of the potential for misinterpretations of digital imagery. The video's popularity highlights the enduring fascination with the paranormal, even in the face of technological explanations.
