Mom-of-two Jennifer Hodge had been in bed watching TV with her daughter Lauren, 21, when she received a notification on her phone reading 'person spotted in entryway' last week.
When they opened the image, they saw a male figure 'beard and all' that looked just like their son and brother Robbie, who died two years earlier of a drug overdose.
Estate agent Jennifer, 57, claims she is still 'freaking out' after seeing the eerie figure last week - but finds comfort in believing it's a sign her son is at peace.
Jennifer, from Atlanta, Georgia, US, said: "It's just insane - I'm blown away. It's just crazy.
"I was laying in bed watching TV with my daughter and I was just about asleep.
"The phone was lay between us and I got this message notification saying someone was in the kitchen.
"She was like 'Mom, there's a person in the kitchen... Mom, that's Robbie!'
"She just said 'Mom, look! It looks like Robbie'. I was stunned.
"And it did look just like him - beard and all."
