Disturbing doorbell video shows "box demon" at Pennsylvania home
Police say the "box demon" seen on viral Ring camera video near York, Pennsylvania has been identified and officers spoke to them.
"There are no public safety concerns. The homeowner who had the box placed on her doorstep was made aware of the identification and does not wish to speak any further regarding this incident," Northern York County Regional police said.
The update brings some closure after viral Ring camera video from a central Pennsylvania home showed someone wearing a paper plate mask appearing on the front porch and leaving something behind.
"I am the box demon, I leave this gift, this box, a gift for you," they say into the camera.
The "demon" is seen wearing a mask that appears to be made from a paper plate with eyes and a mouth drawn on it. Attached to the paper plate are multicolored petals like the petals of a flower.
They then left an empty box on the porch.
The video was taken around 4 a.m. on Tuesday, March 11 on East 10th Avenue in Northern York Borough, the Northern York County Regional Police Department said in a news release.
No word on what, or who, the Box Demon is. Some social media commenters have speculated the "demon" looks like the character Dandy from the "Dandy's World" horror game on Roblox, an online platform where users can create, share and play other users' games.
Dandy also has a round face resembling a flower, with multicolored petals around the outside.
