An influencer caused an uproar a few months ago when a video of her cleaning a gravestone went viral, but one detail has only now come to people’s attention.
Being an influencer doesn’t just mean doing heavy jump cut videos on YouTube while spouting corny jokes.... well it is just that.
In fact, there are some influencers who rack up the viewers and followers from doing very niche things.
For example, cleaning... and not just normal cleaning, I mean deep cleaning. And influencer @_the-clean_girl has built quite a following on social media from videos focussed on doing restorations and deep cleans.

One video that was doing the rounds in March earlier this year did divide some of her supporters, however.
While filming in a graveyard overnight, she decided to restore the gravestone of a woman named Bienvenida.
The cleaning wasn’t the issue, but rather the influencer\s upbeat nature about the whole thing.
Some people thought it was quite disrespectful and exploitative others argued that it was a good deed done with respect and positivity.
However, during this brief clip, it is one small detail that some viewers have started to notice.
During the cleaning process and talking to the camera, the shovel that the influencer brought with her, seems to move on its own.
The shovel appears to move from slightly tilted to upright while it is planted in the ground, with no one visible near it.
“I know damn well I just saw that shovel move,” one user wrote, as another penned: “Why the shovel is moving by itself."
“The ghosts want to give her a hand,” commented a third with a fourth adding “[Bienvenida] is helping her out too, but yall dont believe ghosts lol.”
So, if you are really into the supernatural yeah you might go to ghosts. Grave yard +cemetery = ghosts, sounds about right.
But not everyone was as convinced and suggested it simply could have been the wind that blows it slightly out of position.
Others argued that the influencer had planned the shovel move intentionally and had a string pull on it.
And even more wildly, others claimed there was a person in a green screen suit that moved it and was taken out in post production...
Yeah, I'm probably going to go ahead and just say it was the wind, but I suppose if I was a ghost, I might start moving some stuff around if I saw you cleaning someone else's grave and not mine.
