Watch! Ghost Cat Caught On Tape

Watch! Ghost Cat Caught on Video - Las Vegas

This video was actually taken in Las Vegas, by the brother of a Delaware resident. 

This is actually from my brothers house in Las Vegas. I know u were looking for Delaware Hauntings but still thought it was cool.

My brother is a security freak and has a camera rolling in his house 24/7.  He caught this on tape. His cat had died about a week and a half before this happened. It definitely does look like a cat!!!!

Ghost Watches You Sleep in Smyrna

Ghost Stands At Foot of Bed - Smyrna, Delaware

Smyrna ghost watches at the foot of the bed

When I was 16, I lived in a house in Smyrna Delaware that wasn't that old but always had a lot of weird, unexplainable things that would go on. One night, as I settled into bed, I got this weird feeling that someone was watching me. I sat straight up in bed and at the foot of my bed was a black figure. It was in the perfect shape of a man. I sat there frozen in fear until the adrenaline  kicked in and I wanted out of that room. So, I quickly got out of bed but the figure turned with me. I ran screaming out of my room. 

A little backstory, apparently as a child, I would complain of the same thing. For years, I was unable to sleep in my room because there was a man at the foot of my bed. I'd grown up hearing this story from my parents, but was never sure it was true until that night when I saw the black figure at the end of my bed.
