Jade
Yates, who lives in Barongarook, Victoria, Australia, watched the
spooky footage through the baby monitor as two figures appeared to float
above the cot.
The terrified mum posted the clip to Facebook alongside a short description, which began: 'Fair to say I won't be sleeping very well tonight.'
Ghostly figures: Terrified Jade Yates claims to have filmed the apparition of a mother and child above her baby.
The
video shows baby Ruby curled up in her blanket while fast asleep as a
white figure suddenly emerges exactly above where she rests.
It appears to have a head and body and moves from left to right before floating towards the wall and shrinking in size.
'Ghost' filmed
floating over baby's cot as shocked dad checks on his 8 week-old
daughter. The recording, taken by a baby monitor, shows a misty white
light appearing in the top left hand part of the screen before a
distinctive white orb-shape begins to float over baby Rosie.
This
is the moment a ghostly light was filmed floating over a baby's cot as a
shocked dad checked on his 8 week-old child. The recording, made by a
baby monitor, shows Jonathan Murphy, 32, leaning over baby Rosie after
entering her bedroom earlier this evening.
As he does so a misty
white light appears in the top left hand part of the screen before a
distinctive white orb-shape begins to float to and from over Rosie.
At
one point the orb passes very close to Mr Murphy during the spooky
incident at their home in Consett, County Durham. Mr Murphy told the
Mirror that he had gone up to check on the baby when he first noticed
the white light.
After coming downstairs he and partner Victoria
Snowdon, 22, watched the recording the monitor had taken which confirmed
what he had seen.
Mr Murphy, a betting shop manager, went back
upstairs after watching the video and saw the light was still there. He
said the couple were 'completely freaked out' by what they had seen. Mr
Murphy said the mysterious light has not reappeared at their home since
and that they had not seen anything like this there before.
