Heather woke up Lily from a nap and took her downstairs when she discovered that her little girl had three deep "purple scratches" on her cheek.

The 25-year-old mum, from Michigan in the US, burst into tears and exclaimed to her one-year-old "what happened to you?" before running to her mother-in-law's house.

Keen to find out what had happened, she checked the baby camera with her fiance Josh and were mortified at they saw.

"As soon as possible we're out of here"

They spotted a male figure quickly walking past Lily's cot - before disappearing into thin air, The Sun reported.

"This is a spirit - I don't know what its intentions are but at this point it's becoming physically harmful Heather said.

"This has made us want to leave as soon as possible. As soon as possible we're out of here.

"Seeing Lily's face with the scratches was so bizarre and frightening. There was no explanation as to how that would have happened. It happened within 20 minutes.”

And this is not the first time there's been paranormal activity...

And eerily, it's not the first ghoulish sighting at the guesthouse of Josh's mum, Kris, which investigators believe has "paranormal activity".

Heather also believes she once felt someone "choking her" when she was getting dressed and thinks there must be a ghost.

Kris has claimed the former owner of the home was an elderly lady who laid with a broken hip for a "very long time" until she was found dead at the bottom of the stairs.

And her schizophrenic brother lived in the guesthouse until his death some years later.

Heather also says she has heard screaming, stomping and laughing while home alone - and was even woken from her sleep by the sound of a male shouting.

"If I'm in the shower I hear someone running up and down the steps. I woke up to get ready for work one morning and it felt like someone was choking me," she said.

"Both times investigators have found evidence of a presence"

Parents have often complained of seeing orbs or "ghosts" on their baby monitors.

But the cameras often get back scatter, which is when the camera's flash reflects dust or water droplets in the air that can project as orbs, or leave ghostly trails.

Fujifilm describes those sightings as "blurred images of dust particles".

However, Kris says her granddaughter now points to "corners of the room" ever since the incident.

"We've had many experiences in our main house. We've had an investigator twice and both times they've found evidence of a presence,” she said.

"We've not had the guesthouse investigated yet but we'll be getting one out after this."
