Video: Ghostly activity filmed at West Virginia bakery

The proprietors of a West Virginia bakery believe that their business is haunted due to ghostly activity that has been captured by security cameras on multiple occasions. According to a local media report, the site of the suspected haunting is the Rock City Cake Company in Charleston, where co-owner Morgan Morrison said that unusual events have occurred in the building since "day one," when they opened their doors back in 2016. In the years that followed, they have collected countless pieces of security camera footage (featured above) of possible paranormal events that seemingly strengthen the case that the bakery could be home to a ghost.

Morrison recalled one particularly unsettling set of circumstances involving plastic spider web bowls that the business used around Halloween one year. "We kept coming in at night shift," she recalled, "and they would be in triangles on the floor." Finding herself "tormented" by the recurring repositioning of the bowls, Morrison decided to throw all of the decorations away in the hopes that the weirdness would stop. Chillingly, two weeks later, she was stunned to see one of the spooky pieces had suddenly appeared on a couch at the front of the business. The incident took an astonishing turn when Morrison looked at security footage from that moment and saw the bowl inexplicably burst out of a painting as it had manifested from thin air.

Since sharing their videos on their social media, Rock City Cake Company has developed an online following among paranormal enthusiasts riveted by the ongoing odd events that workers attribute to a spirit they have dubbed 'Harry,' as a means of personalizing the eerie presence. As for what could be behind the perceived haunting, some suggest that the spirit could be connected to a tragic 1949 inferno at the building that claimed the lives of seven firefighters. That said, Morrison expressed skepticism about such a scenario. "I truly believe that it's not the firefighters," she mused, noting that Harry seems more mischievous than menacing. "The worst that's gonna happen to you if you come in here," she laughed, "is you might get a little M&M thrown at you or something."
