Experience description:

I lived at the place I shared with Craig for six months after he passed. In the early morning hours of May the 20th 2017, it was sometime after 3AM, and I couldn't sleep as usual. Overcome with grief I ran out to the garage, and played one song really loud. And cried. It was My Immortal by Evanescence. The song ended and I was still sobbing, but feeling kind of numb. We had cameras outside the back of the garage, and I was just staring at the monitor. I watched it over and over again, I don't know how many times, at least a dozen if not twice that. I watched this light, an orb, in the alley. It would always return to where it started, and meander around out there a bit, before shooting straight toward the overhead door. At some point I snapped out of my daze, and had the sense to hit the record button. Only twice though. I wish I had done more.

It wasn't a moth. It wasn't a reflection. The closest thing I could akin to it being would be like, a lazer pointer. But the light was bigger than that. Plus, what I saw couldn't have been achieved from the ground. One would need to be up high. Nonetheless, I also have footage of myself searching up and down the alley for some physical source, immediately after this happened. There was no one. No kids, no parked cars. Just the night. It was him. I'm not sure why that date though.
