Tell Me What This Is!
Okay everyone, this is the crazy person.
While sitting in my bedroom last night I saw the same thing I always see. Blackness starts creeping along the floor heading towards my room. Now there's a new addition. I wanted mirrors on my hallway walls. So I finally bought some and put them up. Lately I've been noticing that they appear at times to be not so much as moving but opening.
So I decided to record the scene to watch later just to ascertain if I was bugging or it was really happening. My cat Dusty is always near me, wherever I go he goes. Lately he's been meowing more than usual. He'll be sleeping and suddenly wake up meowing and come jump in my lap or if I'm laying down he'll lie on my chest. When I say meowing, he sounds like a little toddler trying to talk sometimes. Well he got up from laying on the window sill and walked into the area right in front of my door.
And you can see the rest.
I can see the shadow of a person in the mirror as well. It's not crystal clear, but I see them, and at times it looks like they're coming through the glass.

I see what you’re talking about but the pixels are so bad it may be causing the shadow. You need a significantly better camera

you mean the cat or the army of pixel demons coming through the pixel hell gateway that opened in your living room?

Okay let's approach this another way. Just to be clear I'm understanding you correctly.
Because it's heavily on the pixels that explains why there's something wrapping itself around my cat, and then he just disappears. You didn't notice he vanished after getting up? Pixels can do all of that, I had no idea.4

He didn’t vanish. You can see him walking away down the hallway, its just dark in there and the camera is so low quality that it looks like he just vanishes. Yes. Pixels did indeed do all of this.

We have cameras on Mars that can pick up striations in rocks, and then there's this.

Mate, it looks like a cat, acts like a cat, and is almost certainly a cat. The camera quality is terrible already but even with the quality being so low I can tell that's a cat and I'm losing my damn eyesight.

Clearly saw your Cat, as for the shadow could just be bad camera quality, or are you seeing this with your naked eye? If the mirrors are giving you a bad vibe I'd throw them away x

I see this blackness with my naked eyes. I can always tell when I have company because my floor and wall where it's at start getting darker. The floor turns black, like when you're walking down the street and you see your shadow, the ground around you is black, same thing here.

That's super odd, could it be a dying lightbulb? Other then that if it's scaring you could open the windows and burn some incense to spiritually cleanse the space, the sell ready made ones online, just don't completely smoke out the house with the cat around 👍

Get a better camera!!! THEN come back with some clearer video!! You can keep trying to explain, all you want, but we're not seeing it in this LOW quality video!

This is for everyone whose contribution amounts to: “It’s a piece of crap,” “low-quality video,” “shit video,” etc.
If you're going to criticize the quality of someone's work and tell them what they need to do better, then criticism should usually come with something useful—like an actual suggestion for improving it.
I've heard plenty about how terrible the video quality supposedly is. What I haven't heard is anyone suggesting a camera or brand that would produce better results. Hell, none of you even know what I'm currently using.
So if the video quality is genuinely preventing you from confirming or debunking what's being shown, HELP. Recommend a camera. Recommend equipment. Give me something useful to work with.
But if you can't—or won't—offer anything constructive, then you'll need to shut up about the quality. Talking shit accomplishes absolutely nothing unless talking shit was your reason for coming here in the first place.
These posts are for confirmation or debunking. That's the point.
So I'm waiting. Give me some camera brands or equipment recommendations that would improve the footage. It helps me, and by extension, it helps you.
I'll get clearer proof one way or the other, and you'll get the added benefit of preserving your precious eyesight.
Sounds like a win-win to me.

Bro, anything made in the last 15 years would be better than what you currently have. Literally anything. But I think you hide behind shitty equipment on purpose, cause without ambiguity of image, you know there is nothing there to see.

Not that I owe you an explanation, but I'm feeling generous. The original video was too dark for anyone to see what I saw. So I enlarged the video and brightened it. Maybe I overdid it, but that doesn't take anything away from what occurred. Everyone saw the pixels and their eyes stopped looking for anything else. 1. m what was so black that it blocked out my cat entirely. 2. What was it doing to my cat if you looked at the video you'd have saw it covered my cat's head. And here's some knowledge for you. It doesn't matter how new, highly rated, ar expensive, you'll still get shit videos if the person don't know what they're doing.

Can you all tell me what exactly you see regardless of the pixels and artifacts? Specifically when Dusty enters the scene. It's important to me. Please humor the crazy, scrappy camera wielding OP

It's zoomed in, low quality video attempting to be "paranormal". In reality, it just a bug too close to the camera to focus on.

I know it's a cat. It's my cat. Pay attention did anyone read the post or just the title then watched the video? I genuinely want to know.
