A ghost orb is similar to a ghost light in behavior
and reaction to light and
sound, yet much different as a it is not visible to the naked eye

and can only be seen on film and infrared monitors. Some investigators
believe This that orbs are dust or insects, but that explanation
doesn't satisfy many other paranormal researchers who believe that orbs
are true evidence of a haunting especially when other phenomenon are
present such as sharp changes in temperature and increases in
electromagnetic energy.
At times, these light anamolies seem
sentient, changing direction quickly and unexpectedly, twinkling and
reacting to the presence of people.
Not everyone discounts orbs
as bunk, but apparently photographic film and digital images are prone
to refractions of light and pixel loss. They tend to be pale white or
blue and transparent. But those caught on video are much more reliable,
are brighter and much denser looking than their photographic
counterparts.
This video, taken at an antebellum mansion in
Georgia, could be the images of a true example. Take a look as it
starts out and the top of the stairs and descends. It almost resembles
the energy of someone walking slowly down the stairs.
