A man visited a haunted cemetery and filmed a "ghost" as a black cat was seen "protecting" him from the spirits.

       YouTuber Sebastian told fans he was headed to one of the biggest cemeteries in the world, visiting the Chacarita burial site in Argentina. He discovered some frightful sights while there, including a black cat walking around which revealed a "ghost".

       While trying to film the cat, the YouTuber appears to have caught a glimpse of an apparition when wandering the site.

       Members of the public now believe the cat was trying to protect him from the alleged ghost, with Sebastian confirming he is still in "shock" after the encounter.

       The video he uploaded to TikTok racked up 2.3million views and thousands of comments, with many members of the comments section worried for his safety.

       One user wrote: "The cat was protecting you from something bad." Another agreed, adding: "Cats are excellent protectors, I'm sure you were in a dangerous situation." A third praised the feline population, writing: "Cats are always looking out for us."

       Other users pointed out the black cat was not a sign of danger but one of protection as it came close to the content creator while they were allegedly filming an apparition.

       Another wrote: "Black cats don't give bad vibes, they protect you from bad vibes." Others discussed whether the ghost in the footage was a genuine apparition or the sighting of a person wandering through the graveyard.

       One wrote: "It's a person walking and dressed in black." Another wrote: "It looks like a person, maybe he is visiting someone and you are calling him a ghost." A third added: "I can see a dark blue jacket, everyone can think what they want but I think it's a real person."

       The alleged ghost sighting was made when Sebastian recorded himself petting the animal, catching a glimpse of something potentially other-worldly while doing so.
