"Ghost of elderly woman" seen watching over five- year-old boy from mansion window as he learns to ride a bike

A mum captured the "ghost of an elderly woman" watching her son as he learned to ride his bike and

it's quite frightening.

Mum Louise Lenton captured the spooky footage at Oldway Mansion, in Paignton, Devon, England.

The mansion dates back to the 19th century. In the video, her five-year-old son is seen doing laps

around the car park. This happened at 5pm on Sunday.

As the boy rides his bike, the shape of a woman can be clearly seen in the window of the first floor,

watching the boy. Louise, who is sceptical about the paranormal, said she "cannot explain" the

appearance of the woman, who she describes as "wearing period dress."

Louise said: "My partner and I had split off, with him going to walk the dogs on the fields and I took

our little boy to the car park to practise riding his bike. The car park is flat and perfect to do it. I was

just filming him and that was it. It wasn't until I was home and in bed watching the film back when I

noticed it. I was like 'oh my gosh!' and my partner could not explain it. Neither of us know what this

is.

"When I was filming I didn't see it at all. I was too busy filming. I screenshotted it and zoomed in

straight away. It looks like a lady with hair in a bun, with white cuffs around her hands."

Louise has even approached Torbay Council about the mystery figure, and it said only security

guards would have been inside the building the day the footage was taken.

"It's certainly not a security guard from what I can tell. The outfit the woman is wearing appears to

have white cuffs and it looks Victorian,"

She added: "I would love to know who or what it was."
