Hypotheses

List of versions containing features matching the eyewitness descriptions or material evidence

Subject when shooting with flash or backlight

Reflection of the flash on objects and small living creatures that are out of focus at the time of photographing.

Investigation

Versions testing, their confirmation or refutation. Additional information, notes during the study of materials

If we assume that the sounds and footsteps have a different origin, then the "ghosts" on the video camera are explained simply - these are small flies that may well be in a museum or dust motes flying in front of the camera working in night mode.
