As Maritza Cibuls peered into her baby monitor’s screen, she was confronted with an unexpected and unsettling sight. Her 18-month-old son was no longer alone in his crib; instead, she saw what appeared to be the face of another baby next to him.
With her heart racing and her mind running even faster, Maritza couldn’t help but wonder how this “other baby” got into her child’s room. And, more importantly, what was she supposed to do now?
The Mother Saw Something Unfamiliar in Her Baby’s Crib
Maritza thought she was alone with her two children late one night in 2019. But then she noticed something peculiar while checking on her son Lincoln.
She watched him via their baby monitor, and there, lying beside her sleeping child, was something she didn’t recognize.
Was it a sign of something supernatural or a harmless glitch in the monitor? The mother knew she needed to find out, no matter the cost
The Unusual Sight Worried Her
As Maritza stared at the phantom presence on the screen, she couldn’t shake the feeling that something was off. Was a shadow playing tricks on her, or was her son in danger? She recalled her feelings:
“At first, I thought my eyes were playing tricks on me. I tried to ignore it, but it was starting to creep me out
It Looked like a Ghost
Maritza explained that the first thought she had was illogical. The mother thought she was looking at another “ghost baby” beside her son.
However, her rational thinking mind longed for something that made more sense. Maritza refused to jump to any conclusions but knew she had to act fast when she saw the presence on her son’s baby monitor.
Nobody Could Make Sense of It
Maritza immediately texted a photo to her husband, Corey, hoping he could offer some explanation or comfort. But when he saw the image, he was just as puzzled as she was.
Maritza wanted answers, so she contacted friends for insight, but their responses confused her even more. As the night wore on, she couldn’t shake the feeling that there was something more to this mysterious presence in her son’s crib.

She Went Looking For Answers
Maritza went to her son’s room with a flashlight but saw nothing was in his crib. The worried mother returned to her room and watched the monitor for hours, but the “ghost baby” never moved.
Thankfully, her son seemed fine, but she desperately wanted to solve the mystery. The next day brought the answers Maritza sought and left her feeling embarrassed
There Was Another Baby in the Crib
Maritza pulled off the crib sheets and realized her husband was to blame. He left the mattress uncovered before putting on a new sheet, and as a result, a sticker of a baby’s face shone through.
Indeed, there was another baby in the crib the entire time, but not in the way the mother imagined. She explained:
“I was so embarrassed. I always use a mattress protector, so I never see the sticker.”
