Image: AI-generated (Midjourney) British paranormal investigators Linzi and Lee Steer had been filming an introduction to their visit to Huskar Pit near Silkstone in South Yorkshire when they caught something strange on camera.

The site itself is known for a devastating 1838 mining disaster that resulted in the deaths of 26 children who had been working the mine when a flood left them trapped and unable to escape.

In the clip, as the camera pans out, it is possible to see what appears to be a ghostly apparition standing a short distance away in front of a tree in the background."It looks like a little girl standing there," said Linzi. She looks like she's got a little white dress and I can see a little face. mouth and two eyes. It looks like she's elevated off the floor and she's got bare feet."

Since appearing on social media, the footage has been met with considerable skepticism with some people arguing that the video is either an outright forgery or a case of pareidolia - the tendency for the human brain to see meaningful shapes in abstract patterns.
