Pretty cool if it's authentic.  It kind of reminds me of that parking garage apparition caught on surveillance camera, only much clearer.

Mmmm... I don't think this one is real.  The person looks too short in relation to the guard rails

It looks animated, Jason and the argonauts, anyone.

Yes, I agree. It looks animated. The gait of the subject is odd, and that makes me question its authenticity.

Looks like animation to me. Too many things are just off. the proportion, the gait, the way the spectre is so highly defined.

We got something "enteresting" on Metacafe, but I don't know how to e-mail it to you. It's terrificly funny, and therefore, probably fake.

I would have to agree...  this is just "too" clear, "too" perfect.  Can you smell it?  Can you?  It smells fake to me.

It looks like someone just took a picture of a stairwell and drew in a shadowy figure using Photoshop or some other such program.

Looks like an overlay to me - the figure seemed "real" enough as far as movement and stepping up the stairs, etc., but the poor quality of the tape and the convenient way the figure disappears as soon as it gets up the stairs looks like someone intentionally FAKED it. I agree with everyone - fake, fake, fakedy, fake....

Wow, that's one crazy video, he's walking, taking his time and everything. You guys think it's residual since it's on a stairwell?

I was busy at first watching the crazy bugs/or spastic debris flying around.  The camera appears it's
playing in fast forward.  The figure is clear but the rest of the footage is hazy.  The figure is
walking slower than the spastic debris...thank goodness, wouldn't have wanted to mess up it's
very clean clear shadow.

Hah, I didn't resurrect the old thread this time!  I'm usually fairly quick to shout fake out, yet I can't find anything that really looks off in this one.  Count the number of visual stairs, I see 11-12.  Now watch the movement of the "ghost," the side to side animation and the leg animation look like it is going up pretty dang close to 11 stairs.  The legs falling and rising corespond to each stair as well.  I think I am going to invest in some better photo analysis software, I got really grainy when I tried to get in closer.

Since I don't know the recorder of this and can't trust them, they will only get a grade of "feasible" from me.

Well let's talk about the "animated" look a second.  When you watch a normal person walk, you can see clothes, colors, and lots of things on that "person" move.  An actual shadow doesn't so much move as it "slides" and ripples.  An actual full body apparition, in "shadow person" form, doesn't have any of the normal stuff you would see, such as contrasts in color due to clothes, clothes rippling or moving and such.  Now some apparitions may have that, but this one if it is real doesn't.

I submit that this looks fake or animated because your trying to compare it to how a regular person would look walking up the stairs.  I'm NOT saying this is real, I'm just saying that to me, the movement alone isn't enough for me to discount it.
