A man has claimed that his maid had become possessed by evil spirits after she started starring wide eyed and acting bizarrely around the house.

But when homeowner Nurul Baker looked back at CCTV footage inside his family home he was shocked to see the woman creeping around in a white dress and walking in a zombie-like state.

In the footage she can be seen with her long hair dangling around her face with her head bowed and and times she seems to point at non-existent things in the distance.

The footage shot at Nurul’s apartment in Singapore went viral - with some viewers terrified and others believing the maid was faking so she could leave the job.

Nurul said: "My maid got possessed by ghost in my flat after she came out of the shower.

"It’s lucky mum and kids were not home."

But viewers believed the black-haired maid had staged the haunting footage to try and return to her home country.

Justin Chen said: "Did you notice she does this at where the camera is facing?

"She's not doing it near the balcony or partially hidden. She knows where the camera is facing, and she wants you to see this.

"Still, it is unsettling to know your maid does this.

"It seems, she doesn't want to work for you anymore. Better let her go, you do not want her to escalate her antics in order to leave your employment. I'm sure you do not want her to spike your drinks or food."

Enzo Lumpkins added: "This kind of fake possession's very common.

"Don’t fall for it. My maid did it previously and she confessed that this was what all the other maids told each other to do if they wanted an exit strategy."
