Mum films 'tough' boy, 5, taking on haunted ride before leaving in tears

A hilarious clip showed a tough five-year-old boy boastfully take on a haunted house before leaving in tears.

Filmed by his mum before he went on the ghostly experience, Akoni acted out punching actions, showing plenty of bravado beforehand as he vowed to take on anyone who tried to scare him. However he quickly changed his mind as the end footage showed Akoni outside the spooky house in Hilo, Hawaii, left in tears with his head in his hands.

The youngster is seen in sobbing and saying: "I'm super scared." Mum Mia Sibayan, from Hawaii, captured the hilarious before-and-after moments. The 26-year-old said: “Akoni was super stoked to go. He was super into it - talking about how he’s gonna punch whoever was gonna jump at him, whether it be a clown or zombie, etc. Seeing his reaction in there was hilarious after he was tough before we got in.

In another haunting experience, a man told how a man was urged to 'leave his very own 'haunted house' and never return' after catching a glimpse at the ' shadow figure ' who has been watching his family. He has shared a video of the 'shadow figure' caught on his motion sensor at night while the family were all asleep.

A figure is seen gliding down the stairs before moving out of shot behind a wall. It appears to be made up of only a face and feet. He said on Reddit: "My motion sensor normally picks up white orbs but last night was different. It caught this 'figure', 'shadow', or whatever you want to call it moving down my stairs. My family and I have had a sense of being watched before but this blew my mind. I am terrified. Please help."

Some users agreed his house is haunted, others thought he edited the footage or there was a fault with his camera. Commenting on his video, one user said: "This is why I won’t put cameras in my house. I know it’s likely just a digital anomaly from software compensating for low light. But I’d prefer to just not have to think about it lol. And cameras can get hacked way too easily."

Another person added: "I offer no help but that one is genuinely creepy. It's weird to me to know that we may have genuine evidence of the supernatural, but due to how easy it is to manipulate videos and pictures we'll probably never know for sure."
