The Grim Reaper is a mythical personification of death in many cultures and folklore
The Grim Reaper, the personification of death, was spotted at the coronation of King Charles III, according to people on Twitter. People who had been watching the major event rushed to Twitter to share pictures of a mysterious hooded figure with 'scythe', dubbed the 'Grim Reaper'.
Joe Green shared a clip from the ceremony where a figure walked by the doors of Westminster Abbey wearing the character's iconic dark robes and an item giving a similar appearance to a scythe.
Since sharing the spooky clip, Joe's video has raked in over 225,000 views to date. Alongside the video footage, he asked Twitter users: "Anyone else just notice the Grim Reaper at Westminster Abbey #Coronation?"
One person claimed they also spotted the figure as they wrote: "Thanks. Thought I was going mad."
A second said: "Yes! I thought it was a witch!"
"I saw him too!" A third Twitter user penned alongside four laughing emojis.
A confused fan couldn't believe their eyes and questioned: "Did someone just edit this in or was that actually someone walking past?"
The Grim Reaper is a mythical personification of death in many cultures and folklore. Often depicted as a skeletal figure cloaked in a black robe and carrying a scythe, the Grim Reaper is said to be responsible for collecting the souls of the deceased and guiding them to the afterlife.
The concept of the Grim Reaper has been deeply ingrained in various mythologies, religious beliefs, and artistic representations throughout history. It is often associated with mortality, the inevitability of death, and the idea that death is a universal and impartial force.
More like an church officiant
Well, that's good and nuts.
Everyone knows he lives upstairs at the White House.
So, is there an official explanation of who the guy is?
That's ridiculous. It was Bigfoot.
Had a wren fly into the open garage the other day.
Same wren or a descendant gets in the house every year usually.
They’re supposed to be “lucky”.
Was not happy about it, anyway.
I can assure you, there ARE ghosts and spirits. Demons, too.
Generally not in the same house or family, however.
How does an entity of any kind exist after death?
On the other hand, both my father and my younger brother died in a hospital due to doctor error. Doctors are the harbinger of death, not owls.

The proof is difficult to share. I have communicated with spirits, quite inadvertently, yet most assuredly.
There is plenty of proof for life after death.
There are even academics studying the topic.
I gave one link earlier but there are dozens of books with all kinds of evidence.
The topic has a bad reputation because of a history of con artists and charlatans—and they still are out there—but there is lots of solid research and data.
The spirit realm is a lot more sophisticated than the temporal.
One revived patient asked "Why is there a tongue depressor on top of the light fixture"? It turned out to be there, and nobody on staff knew about it beforehand.
She could relate these incidents for hours, and all first hand experiences.
I don’t have a religious view of this stuff—don’t consider it the “spirit realm”.
I just think it is another part of reality—a poorly understood one—but there nonetheless.
We humans are not born with “rules of the universe” hard-wired into our heads.
We have to learn them.
We can do that by listening to “experts” and “authority figures” (bad idea in my opinion) or by listening to our experiences in front of our face.
That much like my view as well. I used “spirit realm” for lack of a better term.
No more. In the name of Jesus, we rebuke the powers of darkness, in Jesus' name!
The greatest way to deal with any fear issue is to pray believing in God's power of protection!
Here is a great prayer of protection, The Lorica (Saint Patrick's Breastplate).
Owls are demonic now? I missed that memo.
