In late 2014, when I was in between jobs, I stayed with my parents and slept in their garage until I could afford to get a place. My dad has a security camera in his garage, so he checks it regularly when the motion sensor goes off. 

One morning I woke up, went into the house, and my father told me that the security camera had recorded something the night before while I was sleeping. When I watched the clips from the camera, I get chills from looking at the entity / sphere, especially when it seems to be looking at me over the top of the car. 

We are an extremely skeptical family, so we had to do some experiments. We tried to reproduce the ball seen in the video, using laser pointers from every window, flashlights from all sides, we even tied a dead spider to the end of a rope and held it in front of the camera. 

What we noticed was that whenever SOMETHING came into the camera's field of view, it would focus on that object, and the background would dim a little. When the ball comes into view, it has absolutely no effect on the background, and you wonder why. It is unlike any ball I have ever seen, in that it acts as a ball of energy that changes shape, rather than a perfect circle. 

If you look closely, you can even make out a figure in the upper-right corner of the ball with a head that seems to be looking at me on an air mattress. This video has had a huge impact on my life and how I view the world. I hope it can do the same for many others.

Summary:   In late 2014, when I was in between jobs, i was staying at my parents and sleeping in their garage until I could afford to get a place. My father has a security camera in the garage, so he routinely checks it when the motion sensor goes off. I woke up one morning, went inside the house, and my dad told me that the security camera caught something the previous night while I was sleeping. As I watched the clips from the camera, I got chills from looking at the entity/orb, especially when it seems to look over the car at me. We are an extremely skeptical family, so we had to run some experiments. We tried replicating the orb seen on the video with laser pointers from every window, flashlights from every direction, we even tied a dead spider to the end of a string and held it in front of the camera. What we noticed though, was that whenever ANYTHING came in view of the camera, it would focus on that object and the background would dim just a little. When the orb comes into view, it has absolutely no effect on the background, leaving you to wonder why. It’s unlike any orb I’ve ever seen in that it acts like a shape-shifting blob of energy instead of a perfect circle. If you look closely, you can even make out a figure top-right of the orb with a head that appears to look down at me on the air mattress. This video had an enormous impact on my life and the way I view the world. I hope it can do the same for many others.
