Quote:Haunted Michigan nannycam couple have a GoFundMe page that isn’t doing too well. MR may need to start one considering he might go broke contributing to the Weird & Beyond folks accounts.

Needing financial help has never been a black mark against someone in my book. They are just poor. So what?
Are the poor not entitled to financial help from voluntary contributors?

IMHO the alien abductee woman needs more than money. 

I think the Michigan couple went too far and lost credibility by claiming the ghost was schizophrenic, don’t you?

They're just goin by the schizophrenic son who died in that house years before. That's all that they mean by that.

Just wild-eyed true believers worshiping at their altar of woo. Angel

Yeah..just a video artifact that happens to walk across the room and behind the baby's crib.

You really don't understand how digital video works, do you?

No one even so much as implied that it was only a "video artifact" walking across the room. "Video artifacting" occurs due to actual objects (here just a real, live person) moving, where the resolution/lighting/frame rate is too low to accurately depict what happened.

Anyone with half a brain can plainly see that the background in out of focus/poorly lit, as the near side of the crib is even more clear than the toddler just inside it and further from the camera gets progressively worse/darker. And the resolution is very low or the video has been highly compressed, with the subsequent loss of quality. Hell, you can't even make out the child's face.
LOL! No longer a video artifact but now a real live person. Backpeddle much?

Never "just" a video artifact (your ignorant or desperate straw man). Always "video artfacting", that only occurs due to real and mundane things caught on poor quality video.

There's no accounting for your ignorance of basic digital video terminology.
MR...myself and Syne are least two skeptics you have to worry about, This Kenny Biddle character is the guy you should focus on. Have a look

On second thought.... I think you may want to check the credentials of the claimant named Scullion in this story. After all he's in your corner.

Don't know if I've seen babies get up in the crib and just freeze.

And the baby doesn't seem to be paying attention to the ghost at all. The baby appears to be looking the other way.

I don't know whether the video is fake. (Lots of people fake videos to get social media attention.)

But assuming that the video wasn't intentionally faked, it just looks to me like a patch of faint light moving across the wall of the baby's room. I've seen that many times in my own home, usually associated with automobile headlights moving past on the street outside.

I don't think so. I don't see any light coming from the windows, if they're even not covered.
I don't usually see rays of light coming in windows at night. Just the light against the back wall.

Maybe you should quit smoking out your room, Cheech...I mean MR.
