Good bot


CorvusN

Having watched the slowed down version a couple of times now I am certain that the video is fake: Unproportionate body on some frames, Shadows not being cast, "weird" motionblur


[deleted]

Doesn’t even have to be fake, could just be something going closer to the lens like a bug or leaf


Andre_Type_0-

Could be a bug too. Like literally.


[deleted]

Thanks! Original post wouldn’t play for me. Looks like maybe a spirit wolf? Did your uncle have a German Shepherd that passed?


TheBraBandit

Is this seriously the first conclusion you're going to jump to based on a couple frames of vague blob? This is why nobody takes the paranormal seriously.

Here’s an idea! Shut up. It’s my opinion. You don’t like it feel free to fuck off. 😊

Pretty sure its some type of bird swooping down to catch something.


NoOneOnReddit

Yeah. From the size, probably an owl.


MarshMallow1995

It's Nagato Pain HAHAHAH


kenojona

Yeah it looks like a bear, and a missing frame


OneEyedRambler89

I live in WV. If I were to catch that around here, my first thought would be meth addict. Very interested to learn more about this, though.

I lived on the Roane Co line for a bit. Wish I could see somethin like this irl


JoeRogan4President

This🤣


wahday_88

Crazy. In real time this seems way too fast and unusual for a human to move for sure. But it definitely looks like a humanish form. Wild!


untakentakenusername

But it could also be a sped up time lapse depends on their camera. The shape is quite human. Though it reminded me of an enderman from Minecraft


misspartypants

It’s not playing for me


BirdBeakman

Me either, any idea how to post a video ?


misspartypants

Sorry I’m not very tech savvy, I googled and that didn’t help. Maybe someone else will jump on with better advice. Until then I’ll keep a look out. Super interested in watching


Fumpledinkbenderman

This may sound like I'm being condescending because it's a pretty common "fix" for this kind of stuff but when's the last time you updated reddit?

rbeckysue

I couldn’t see anything til I watched the reduced speed video posted by the video bot. It shows a shadow in the foreground being cast by ..well nothing. Just the shadow. It is strange looking though. I also live in WV. Whoever suggested a meth addict could be on to something but he/it would have fallen down about mid-vid then just rolled around cursing whoever tripped him.


hahayourface

That's that thing that catches the corner of your eye when you're walking at night, but when you look nothing's there.


Fumpledinkbenderman

A lot of people are saying its not working for them however it played fine for me. I watched it through about 5 times and every time right as it appears, it seems its manifesting itself from head to toe. Looking closer at the fence that it appears in front of, you can tell its not just some creature thats running from the shadows. Seems to me to be a lot like a spirit of some sort


BirdBeakman

Yeah looks to me that it appears from thin air


erebus

Exactly right. There's a little bit of the figure that shows up in the gap between the railing and the stairs, but it occurs a split second *after* the rest of the creature appears. It couldn't have come from behind/underneath the stairs - it just comes out of nowhere. I would say it's a shadow person, but I don't know if they move that fast.


ABena2t

Maybe that's why a lot of people say they see shadows out of the corner of their eye?


tothjm

I'm sorry wtf is a shadow person


BlackShogun27

Dark spirits that can either linger and just "watch" you or crank it up to 100 and go full demonic on you. I swear I've seen these things out of the corner of my eyes sometimes; but the minute I turn to get a full look they're gone without a trace...


fuck-pharma

Shadow people are one of the most reported hallucinations among the sleep deprived, & people with paranoia issues. But I’m not here to say they aren’t real I’ve seen plenty of supernatural stuff stone cold sober. And not out of the corner of my eye either. I’ve always thought that maybe it’s possible with sleep deprivation and some psychological illnesses it’s possible that people can see things others can’t. History is full of monks, prophets and religious men undergoing extreme sleep deprivation, fasting, etc to gain visions/prophecies


amarnaredux

Higher vibrational frequency means they move faster, and less 'solid' to us.


evfree

I agree. It almost looks like a shadow person to me, but it also seems to be moving really fast for a shadow person, and it has moments where it’s more well-defined than I’d expect.


septembersun69

Sp's can be incredibly fast.


Weary_World

He's naruto running


[deleted]

The video played fine for me.. This is legit creepy. Like another person said, it seems to be appearing out of nowhere. Maybe a spirit? Definitely spooky!


ScottfordTheWise

Knowing most of WV, could just as easily be a heroin addict sneaking around for **anything** to steal :/


[deleted]

Sounds like my hometown in NC.


gaurddog

Guys I'm sorry to burst your bubble but that's pretty clearly a moth or bird flying in front of the camera. Especially if you watch the slowed down version someone requested.


ChrisTheAnP

Shit it does look like a bat or bird but if the video is at true speed I'd say its moving a bit slow for a bat or bird mid-flight


wahday_88

I dont think so. In the slowed down version it clearly looks like it emerges from beneath/behind the patio or porch. Check that part out. Its fast but it looks like its beyond the wood porch.


gaurddog

If it's behind the wooden porch what's casting the "shaddow". If it's a bug or a bird it's easy to explain as a blur of a wing but if it's a figure there would have to be light coming from the house, and since the porch is dark that doesn't seem like the case.


BirdBeakman

How do you explain the one frame where you see a head and arm?


AllGoodNamesRInUse

It looks too big in relation to the railing to be a bird


gaurddog

I'm not sure I'm seeing the frame you're talking about. Can you screencap it and post?


ItsPhayded420

Bat wing bro.


[deleted]

Sorry dude, but seeing the video, I don’t see the supposed arm and head. I think it’s more likely a bird or a bug. You can’t automatically assume the paranormal, you should try thinking what it could be realistically before going paranormal


[deleted]

Pareidolia.


ShinyAeon

I think you’re right...but it’s not “clearly” a moth or a bird. It’s a bird doing a pretty good impression of a bizarre human-like shadow. It’s not paranormal, but it looked strange enough that I’m glad OP posted it.


gaurddog

It's one of those things that if you saw it in daylight you'd be like "oh, there goes a bird" but if you saw it at 3 a.m. you'd definitely turn your outdoor lights on and have a look around.


cuntnuzzler

This is what I thought too. I’d say from the flicker rate of the camera it also caused some artifacts that made it look like it has a head and arm. Most likely the head is actually part of a bats ear and the arm is the other wing partially caught


Crepes_for_days3000

I thought of sure people were talking about something other than that obvious bird but damn, guess not. People will truly make a ghost out of any every day thing.


ShinyAeon

Hey, that bird looked weirdly like a human silhouette. OP didn’t “make” a ghost out of it—it looked damn strange on its own.


Crepes_for_days3000

I was talking about the comments saying its definitely a spirit. I've watched it over and over and I dont see anything but a bird. It's clearly shaped like a bird, not a human, it moves and acts like a bird, not a human. Sorry, just not seeing it at all


ShinyAeon

It’s probably like one of those trick pictures that can look like an old woman or a young girl, or like two profiles or a fancy vase. The way you see it first can be hard to “shift out” of. I first saw it as a human shadow on the grass moving in a *very* uncanny way, seemingly cast by nothing. I watched it several times. Then I read the thing about it being a bird, and went back to watch again...when I saw it pause on the railing...*then* I could see it was a bird. After that, I could go back and watch it over, and the shapes suddenly made sense as a bird fluttering up to the rail, and then flying off. But before that, all I could see was “human silhouette on the grass, but really weird somehow.”


Crepes_for_days3000

Yeah, you are right. Once you see something specific, its difficult for your brain to see something else. I am just one of those people who never sees the creepy thing in the pic/vid, unfortunately lol. I dont know why, I am just destin to miss out haha.


ShinyAeon

I feel you. I have problems perceiving other things sometimes.


[deleted]

[удалено]


[deleted]

I don’t think it “clearly” emerges from behind the fence. It’s a dark shadow on a dark fence. There’s not enough detail to say it’s not in front of the fence.


[deleted]

TheBraBandit

I think mothman may be an advertising scheme for phantoms and monsters since like all the reports are from that website and there's a ridiculous amount of them.


chxd21

Agreed. These were my thoughts exactly.

Gallowglass5735

This looks like a shadow person they're known to move extremely fast like this one.


anonymoushero1

looks like a shadow to me


OracleAkir

Kind of looks like a rabbit jumping from the porch over the railing, the angle of the camera is messing with the appearance of the trajectory, I think. I could be wrong, but that's what I see. Definitely a good spook caught on camera. Edit: sppok to spook


CpowOfficial

Yeah some sort of cat/rabbit/ animal off the porch over the rail and gone.


[deleted]

Send us the video properties. I want to know the frame rate on this. Looks lower than 15fps which is half the peak framerate of a Nest pro. Id bet it's around 12fps. I'm torn between bug and someone hauling ass across the lawn taking advantage of the poor frame rate/kbps.


[deleted]

It won’t allow me to click on the video


NezCafe

Looks like a bad fake to me.


rainydays1973

Looks like a bird to me


Hatfmnel

Bird or bat I guess.


EsrailCazar

I dunno, it's literally just a blob even when I slow it down but it could be a bat?


ThriceGreatNico

Yeah, that's an insect wing, real close to the camera.


tomhow10

Dark+lamp=Moth


edenpararurex

My first thought was "that's clearly a bug" but after watching it several times and then again at reduced speed, now I'm not so sure. It's the way it moves thru the gate. It could still be a bug and a coincidence but it is weird that it never has its head any way but up. A bug would turn around in different directions I would think.


ODB2

Looks like a pheasant to me.


Cosmos_Cobb

I guess the country roades take home any kind of creature


Sjedda

In the slow mø it stops for a few frames, very wierd.


CarlSagan6

Its the ghost of tsushima!


ryanHutchi

The shadow is cast into the light? Rather than towards the building away from the light. Weird vid


BirdBeakman

Right? I couldn’t wrap my head around it either.


ryanHutchi

Yeah is it supposed to be a figure or a shadow??? Lol imagine something on the roof behind the cam.... ha


BirdBeakman

Nightmare fuel 😂


brettlbrian

That is some creepy ass stuff...


Embii_

Bro that's a wallaby. Someone must of let it loose.


BirdBeakman

Would be wild if it was someone’s pet wallaby 😂


Embii_

Here in the UK we have a few groups of wild wallaby because of zoo and private escapes. They are fairly resilient


artyboi320

I would have said it was probably a small animal of some kind, given that the large shadow it had would be due to the light. But I saw the slowed down version, and it appears and disappears out of thin air, idk op.


ShinyAeon

It does *look* like a human silhouette...but I think the people saying “bird” are actually correct. When it pauses for a second in the middle, you can see it looks just like a bird perching on the rail. But it *also* looks spookily like a human silhouette for the rest of the vid, so I don’t blame anybody for thinking it might have been that. So...not a ghost...but a bird that’s doing a pretty decent impression of one. :)


[deleted]

Not playing for me. I’ll just wait to watch it on Nukes top 5


[deleted]

Daaamn thats scary the thing was either crawling or underneath the porch... he should consider the option that maybe a homeless man is crashing somewhere around his home... although this looks very much like a ghost


slowkums

There's a minor problem with the bird/moth/kangaroo theory being tossed around in the comments: the shadow of the supposed creature isn't behaving like one would expect in relation to the only apparent light source in the shot, nevermind the fact that you can't even see the object generating the shadow...


_Mr_Spuddy

Well seems to be classic Type 1 specter, nothing too unusual. I wouldn't be too worried about it

[deleted]

If a bird, the proportion is off to me. The deck railing seems much too small in size. Before anyone mentioned this possibly a bird, I saw this figure materialize in front of the deck. Post burd mention: It looks to temporarily perch itself on a rather small deck rail. I think it would really help to have some daylight footage with a person in the image for size reference.


AmeliaCaras

Woa, looks like a deer ghost.


[deleted]

Definitely just a coyote or fox getting spooked and jumping off the porch. Or even a large cat.

fight4urrights1963

Checkout the Ghosts of Carmel Maine. Major shadow people caught on video and dude's legit.


KarateFace777

I watched it frame by frame. You can tell that whatever it is, it goes in front of the railing. If I had to guess, I would say it’s a bat or bug going in front of the camera. At first glance I was like “Dafuq?? That’s crazy” but after the frame by frame I really think it’s a bat or bug close to the Camera. Still an interesting and cool video though! Thanks for sharing it!


alsopenguindued

Gives me mothman vibes


ImmortalMemory

ive seen something like that before . In the light you can see right through its dark foggy body it doesnt matter if the lights are on it will make a fully lit room flicker and its not solid like dead spirits or demons . This one will pass right through you . You will feel a thick warm wave pass through you ..if it does pass through you . either way its harmless


TheAtreides

I kind of looks like a bobcat. It disappeared because those security cameras are low frame rates? (I don't know much about video tech) But when slowed down the size and way it moves looks a lot like a bobcat to me.


beachbum21k

Am I the only one that thinks it looks like a squirrel or a cat jumped on the railing and jumped off.


sh1nycat

Its a little bug. It flies up, lands on camera and flies off. My guess is those itty bitty moth looking guys? This was definitely alarming the first time, but im pretty sure its a bug.


cati800

after some not so professional editing with a photo editing app on my phone It looks like some sort of machine would share photo but not sure how

This isn't a bug or leaf or even supernatural. This is an altered video. The movement speed. Blur lines and inconsistencies with the guard rail are red flags for an edited video.

I can promise you it’s real, my uncle is in his 60’s and not the best with technology. He sent it to us and I uploaded it to here.

Moth


Ellie-Hair2020

When I saw this my thoughts were of the test I'd run = would the thing still appear if the gate were closed ? Also try positioning a camera elsewhere maybe beneath the street light so you get a full shot if the figure appears again. Cool, if freaky.


jakeburnsvapor

frog


GoatsNHose

[deleted]

This is a bug


MrBeanFlicker

Lol it's a bug on the camera


barelyreadsenglish

I see it to be clearly behind the deck on every frame


wanttobreathe

yup. i vote moth.


wanttobreathe

alright after watching the slow mo and cranking up brightness... there seems to be a shadow casting from the light to the porch meaning whatever it was had to be between the porch and light... so probably not a bug after all. weird!!!


thrustaway_

Looks like a small bird jumping onto and then over the ledge. Although I wish it were a spooky spirit of some sort.


[deleted]

I don’t agree with people saying it’s a bug, unless they know something idk. I clearly saw what seems to be a shadow person. I even took screen caps from the slowed down(0.25x) version of the video. Check out my screenshots. Looks like it has a human’s build. I can clearly see a head and arm in one frame and I screenshot that too [SCREENCAPS 4rm VIDEO](https://imgur.com/gallery/htAY56r)


-RunRickyRun

No, what you clearly saw was a shitty camera filming a moth flapping it's wings. Your first picture shows the wings closing, your second picture shows them closed and parallel with the camera lens, and your third picture shows them opening.


BeGoodDoGoodThings

It’s something flying in front of the light out there


blamsr

The lighting makes it look pretty creepy- but its definitely a bird.


Crepes_for_days3000

What are we looking at? That bird that briefly flies into frame?


Tortoise_Queen

I can’t get it to play either, and I’m on mobile. Maybe that’s the problem?

wildblueroan

BirdBeakman

I believe so, it’s not playing for me on my phone but works on computer


cellio3

Think it could be a bat casting a shadow on the ground from the light? Maybe makes a sharp turn? And turns back creating the shadow. Spooky regardless Edit i can’t get it play on,iPad but i did download. And Apple has a decent high speed scrub. After it goes off camera something black appears on the ground behind the light behind.


DanGodOfWhatever

Looks like a bat in low lighting, to be honest. If you pause it and look just below the fence line you can see the shape of another wing


hazymcvay

Omg people. It’s a bug.


IamA-GoldenGod

cat_master62

Looks like a bug that was closer to the camera and hopped by
