Security cameras from a notoriously haunted hotel in Texas captured the moment small toys seemingly moved on their own, and a shadowy figure moved through the room.
The Magnolia Hotel, built in 1840, was the site of a particularly horrible incident in 1874 wherein an ax-wielding intruder murdered a little girl.
Many believe the spirit of the young girl, Emma, remains at the hotel.
In the strange scene captured this past weekend, many different events unfolded in a room filled with children's toys.
First, a ball rolls across the floor while a pair of 'rem pods' flashed. These devices are said to only flash when they are being touched.
Second, a shadow figure can quickly be seen entering the room before vanishing.
Finally, a dress on a nearby mannequin flutters as if it was being disturbed.
“That is our children's room where all of our little spirits enjoy playing because of all the toys," co-owner Erin Ghedi explained, "this was definitely sweet Emma because she is the one who enjoys rolling the ball."
However, Ghedi believes the shadow figure was a different spirit known as 'Mrs. Read,' who keeps an eye on the ghostly children who inhabit the hotel.
