Man captures 'ghost' of child caught on camera (video)

This is the spooky apparition which looks to be the ghost of a child captured floating on camera.

The eerie figure is caught on film appearing in a man's front room before moving across the shot and back again.

The footage was uploaded to Facebook and has been viewed more than 600,000 times.

But instead of being scared of the 'ghost' the owner of the house was said to be delighted.

Folk legend in Japan states, zashikiwarashi, or child ghost is supposed to bring good luck to all who see it.

They typically take the form of a five or six year old and are said to live in homes to bring families good fortune.

However, they are also said to cause mischief.

Masahiro claims he captured the zashikiwarashi on camera and uploaded the video captioned “Succeeded in recording a zashikiwarashi on video!

"Those of you who see this will be lucky... maybe."
