This was recorded on my IP security camera on 11/12/24 at 3:44 a.m. It took a couple of days to figure out that this was a man and how he tried to hide from the cameras.
That looks like a bug on your camera lens.

We thought about that too, but ruled it out. Look closely at the end of the video when it moves into the light near the garage. If you focus on where the legs and feet would be, you can see a stride, like one foot moving in front of the other. Also, when it gets close to the garage light, there’s a flash as its light and the garage light combine. It’s using an IR LED, not sure of the exact type, but it seemed to cloak him and overpower the camera. We have another video from earlier where this same person was out in the street carrying a strong light. That light also overpowered the cameras, and he was only visible briefly when he moved further down the street.

I’m 100% sure that’s a bug. You can literally see it crawl across the lens.

Yeah, it definitely looks like a bug.
@Paris
There’s no shadow that matches the object’s movement on the ground. This really looks like a bug, probably very close to or on the lens. Check the area around the camera, like the roofline or eaves. It might be a spider or moth.

An IR LED can blind a camera if it’s very powerful, but it wouldn’t make just a small area around it invisible. This really seems like a bug either on or very close to the lens.
I’m pretty sure that’s just a bug.
If it were a bug, it would have shown up as white on this type of camera. Plus, if it’s a bug, it’s the smartest one I’ve ever seen. It went to the end of the parked cars, turned exactly where they ended, then came back to the same spot it started from. After that, it made a perfect curve around the flower bed, walked onto the driveway, and headed straight to the side yard. At the end of the video, when it steps into the garage light, you can see what looks like feet moving one in front of the other.
We also have another video from an earlier date. It shows a man walking in the street doing the same thing. Once he passes the driveway, you can clearly see his back. He’s about 6 feet tall, wearing shorts and a t-shirt. That’s how clear it was.
You sure it’s not a ghost?
