Responses to the video varied among Twitter users. Some marvelled at the perfectly timed sound effect accompanying the figure's movement, while others expressed amazement. Curiosity arose as individuals questioned whom the figure might be searching for, with one person even humorously suggesting it could be Meghan Markle in disguise. "Meghan made it then," a user joked. Speculation and humour filled the comment sections, with references to Princess Diana seeking revenge and Queen Elizabeth II reclaiming her crown. A second added, "Yep, that’s Queen Diana hunting down Camilla for stealing her man and crown. Watch out!!!" “Lizzy wants her crown back,” a third jokingly remarked.
Another user suggested checking the CCTV footage saying, "The Reaper has a shadow. We can safely throw out ghostly appirations and get a look at a connecting CCTV unit from another angle to see who the "grim reaper" is?" "The sound effect in the background when he walks across is so perfectly timed that I almost can’t get over it," a user pointed out.
Interestingly, this viral video emerged following warnings from two self-proclaimed royal "superfans" who claimed to have predicted the deaths of Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip. The "superfans" expressed ominous vibes surrounding the coronation and stressed the need for heightened security. Despite these concerns, the ceremony proceeded without any major incidents.
