Ghostly Guests: Ring Cameras Capture Spooky Season’s Best Moments

By Ring on October 22, 2025

As the days grow shorter and jack-o'-lanterns light up porches across the country, Ring cameras are capturing some truly spine-tingling moments. From unexpected late-night visitors to creative Halloween pranks, our neighbors are proving that spooky season brings out their imaginative sides. Here are some of our favorite haunted highlights that show just how much fun Halloween can be when you add a dash of creativity with your Ring device!

Ghost Decoration Spooks Unexpected Furry Visitors

When David set up his Halloween decoration to surprise trick-or-treaters, he never expected to catch some four-legged friends getting the fright of their lives. Thanks to his Ring Video Doorbell and Ring Home subscription, he captured the moment a group of curious raccoons encountered his spooky setup – and their reaction was priceless. "When we saw this video, we immediately broke out with laughter," David recalls. "These raccoons had been snooping around before and nothing would deter them — until now."

Ghostly Guest Makes Late-Night Appearance

Who says ghosts only come out on Halloween night? One creative Ring user decided to bring classic haunted house vibes to their front porch with nothing more than a simple white sheet and spooky movements. Captured perfectly on their Ring device, the ghostly figure's theatrical swooping and swaying would make any Victorian-era spirit proud – and probably startle more than a few passersby.

Unexplained Activity Leaves Couple Questioning Late Night Visit

Sometimes Ring cameras capture moments that defy explanation – just ask Michael and Trisha. What started as a peaceful evening on their patio took an eerie turn when their Ring App prompted Trisha to check the front door. Finding no visitors, she returned to discover her drink had been knocked over and that her chair had mysteriously moved from its original position. "It was only when we looked at the Ring history that we were able to see what happened," Michael recalls. While we can't confirm if this was a supernatural encounter or just a peculiar coincidence, one thing's for certain – their Ring device was there to document the moment!

Dancing Ghost Brings Daytime Delight

Who says hauntings have to be scary? One spirited Ring user proved that even ghosts need to bust a move sometimes. Captured in broad daylight, this sheet-clad specter's playful shimmy showed off some surprisingly smooth moves for someone from the afterlife.

Disco Ghosts Bust a Move to Bust Would-Be “Porch Pirate”

When Luke set up his Ring Video Doorbell to protect against package theft, he never imagined it would capture evidence of paranormal party-goers saving the day! As a would-be “porch pirate” approached a recent delivery, something extraordinary happened – a ghost appeared with a classic "boo" before breaking into an impressive disco routine! The supernatural security detail doubled when a second ghost emerged from the package itself, joining in the groovy protection patrol. Thankfully, this was all in good fun, and there was never any risk of a real theft taking place.

Whether it's pranking curious raccoons, capturing unexplained mysteries, or documenting disco-dancing spirits, many neighbors have found their Ring devices to be a useful addition to their spooky celebrations. From creative costumes to possible paranormal encounters, these haunted highlights show that Halloween brings out the playful spirit in neighbors everywhere.
