A man who spent 24 hours on a 'haunted' island captured a chilling moment while staying there overnight.
Australian content creator Strick, from Back 2 Basics Adventures, recently shared a video of his eerie visit to Skull Island, off the coast of Queensland.
Strick's solo attempt to survive on the small, rocky island was made that little bit more difficult given Skull Island's dark history.

Theory has it that early European explorers may have named it after coming across loads of skulls and bones there.
With apparent 'sightings' of shipwrecked ghosts swarming around the island, Strick thinks he accidentally filmed one coming out of his tent late at night.
As it happened, he said: "I've got crazy goosebumps at the moment, I heard someone outside.
"My fire is now going again that I put out hours ago and I heard foot prints straight unmistakably outside my swag, it woke me up."
The next morning, he added: "These trail cameras only start filming when two things happen if there is movement in front of it or if there is a heat source in front of it.

"The crazy thing, this starts filming when I reckon I heard the noise and 10 seconds later you see me then turn the torch on and filming inside the swag and then I come outside.
"But there is no obvious movement, a heat source of something has triggered this."
Viewers have been left terrified by the footage, as one person commented: "There's a ghostly figure moving away as you come out of the tent, I'm sure I'm not the only one who saw that."
Another wrote: "Strict, did you notice what looks like someone running from your swag when you jumped out?

"It was odd looking though, kind of shadowy but that could have been the low light. Glad you’re safe! Good one!"
While a third added: "Someone definitely ran away from the tent in the middle of the night. As soon as he came out from the tent when he thought he heard someone and the camera view changed from his camera to the farther view he previously set up that night you can totally see someone running away to the left of his tent. Ugh that gave me the chills...spooky."
"Well there would've been smoke if another person was on island. It didn't move like a human. You captured a ghost bro no wonder u got goosebumps," a fourth penned.
Meanwhile, others argued it was just 'lens flare'.

"It's literally the headlights reflection in the lens," one insisted.
"I think that was either a reflection off the lense or a dust mote/bug. I'm curious to know why there weren't any tracks in the sand," a second added.
