María, la Tímida (material encontrado 2008) // I.S.A

Overview

A creator (“Copi 346”) says she uploaded a video after an unusual experience involving a large Virgin Mary statue that her grandmother brought to her home about two weeks earlier.

Background of the statue

• The family received the statue from a relative (possibly an aunt).
• The creator didn’t investigate its origin much, since it was common for her grandmother’s family to bring religious items.
• The main oddity she notes is the statue’s unusually large size.

Normal appearance in person

• After her mother cleaned it and placed it in the living room, the statue appeared normal.
• When viewed directly, it looked intact and unmarked.

Photos show distortion

• When her brother tried to photograph the statue to show an aunt, the resulting image showed distorted/altered facial features.
• They tested multiple devices—another camera and even a cellphone.
• The same distortion occurred repeatedly.

Not explained by camera settings

• The distortion persisted regardless of technique:
  • With or without flash
  • From close range or farther away
• The creator mentions her father suggested it might relate to the statue’s material shine or reflections.
• However, they reportedly ruled that out through repeated attempts.

Planned test recording

• They plan to record video of the statue as well.
• The goal is to determine whether the issue appears only in still photographs or also in video.

Request for input

• She asks viewers in the comments if anyone has experienced something similar or knows a possible explanation.
• She says she’s sharing because it seemed strange and wanted others to weigh in.

Closing

At the end, she promises a more “normal” next upload and closes with thanks and “many blessings.”
