Carnivals are always a place for memories, whether they come from an exciting ride, delicious food or a giant prize won in a game. However, one mom left a carnival with an incredibly strange experience she will never forget. That woman, Nur Afrina Rosni from Malaysia, filmed her five-year-old son Muiz, along with a boy seated next to him, as they slowly spun around on a ride. The kids and everyone on the ride seem to be enjoying themselves as they revolve around but on the next orbit, Rosni's son is all alone.
Nur shared the eerie footage on TikTok with the caption "Who is sitting next to Muiz?" She added, "I am not mistaken. They were sitting together. I didn't know the boy next to him. I think the workers seated them together. While I was filming a short video, the car came around a second time and my son was suddenly alone. When the ride finished, my son came down but the boy next to him did not appear anywhere. Muiz said he was sitting with a boy on the ride. When I showed him the video he said he did not know where he went."
Unable to stop thinking about what happened, the following day Rosni asked her son more about what happened but was unable to glean anything more. She told The Sun, "It was scary, but my son is okay. However, I'm still left wondering what happened to that boy?"
Commenters had some ideas. Not surprisingly, many suggested that the video was edited, while others seem certain the boy is laying on the seat. Some wrote that the car shown the second time around is a different one, but plenty of other viewers are certain something supernatural was at play, asserting that it was the right car, that there wasn't enough time for the boy to lay down, and that the video is legit. As yet, no official explanation has been given.
