Ghost in the New Paltz Library

This 32-second clip from the security camera was recorded in the oldest part of the Elting Memorial Library last October 25. It shows what observers have described variously as a ghost, an anomaly, even an "electro quark plasma field." Suffice it to say, everyone who's seen it is at least mystified. Take a look for yourself and see what you make of it.

@mjay0409 But according to the same person who viewed the footage, it was simply a board member who left for the day and forgot to lock it behind him. I read it in the newspaper.

It will be some kind of insect, cctv cameras have notoriously poor lenses compared to cameras & this one is obviously focused on the floor area rather than right on the lense itself - hence the blurry image of the 'thing'. This doesn't however explain the locked door being open in the morning.

One time I physically saw this in my restroom after I was done showering and moved the curtain I saw a black substance floating around. It didn't have a shape of anyone, and I didn't feel any presence.

I can see the faint blur of the bug's legs.

Many comments with first hand experience on encountering insects on the lens of a surveillance camera. If this was a case to investigate I would say... trust the ones who have surveillance cameras and have experienced this numerious times. my vote: insect on the lens

It's not a bug people.
