What Did We Capture During a Private Investigation?

One of the most rewarding aspects of paranormal investigation is that you never know what you might encounter. Sometimes the night is quiet. Other times, something unexpected happens that leaves you asking questions long after the investigation ends.
During a recent private investigation at the Hotel Saint Nicholas in Cripple Creek, our team spent time in the building's former operating room (among others), an area with a long history and countless stories shared over the years.
To encourage interaction, we used several medical-themed trigger objects, including a stethoscope, toy syringes, and a heart monitor video. We also conducted a flashlight communication session while cameras continuously recorded the room.
While we were investigating inside the former operating room, Sandi monitored the live camera feed from another location.
Then she noticed something.
As an object passed close to the camera, it briefly appeared to resemble a human face.
Rather than draw conclusions, we'd rather share the footage and invite you to watch it for yourself.
Our philosophy at In the Shadows Paranormal has always been simple: present the evidence, provide the context, and encourage respectful discussion.
So now it's your turn.
Watch the video carefully.
What do you see?
History. Mystery. Discovery.
Can you please share the timestamp on the Cripple Creek OR video where you saw the face? I’ve watched it a bunch of times and do see the orb, but I think I’m missing something as I’m not seeing the “face.”
