Mum sees 'ghost baby' cuddling her boy on baby monitor

An American mum got a spooky shock when she checked her baby monitor.

Maritza Elizabeth checked on her son using the camera when she saw the ghostly image of a baby apparently snuggled next to her boy.

She crept into his room with a torch but didn't catch any signs of the spirit.

After a restless night, she returned to investigate.

The truth behind the ghostly image

After pulling back the sheet, she found out what the 'ghost baby' really was.

'It turns out my husband just forgot to put the mattress protector on when he changed the sheets,' she explained.

Luckily Maritza saw the funny side, although she joked that she 'could kill' her husband.
