‘Ghost’ Appears at Taylor Swift’s Concert and Wild Conspiracy Theories

A mysterious, shadowy figure appeared at Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour show in Madrid, sparking a swarm of wild conspiracy theories about Travis Kelce, Joe Alwyn and more.

The spooky silhouette was spotted watching the three-hour concert from a high point at Santiago Bernabéu Stadium at the end of May.

Several Swifties flooded social media with theories and jokes about what the ghostlike apparition could be after a video of it surfaced on TikTok earlier this week.

“I think that’s Travis kelce,” one person wrote on X of the “Cruel Summer” singer’s boyfriend.

“Literally, just Travis,” a second agreed of the towering outline.

Others, however, were convinced that the shadow belonged to Alwyn, whom Swift dated for six years until their breakup in early 2023.

“Joe Alwyn hiding in the rafters,” one fan joked.

“Joe alwyn what are you doing there,” another fan inquired, with a netizen adding, “Must be one of her exes.”

“Its matty healy actually,” one social media user wrote of the 1975 frontman, with whom Swift had a fling before beginning her serious relationship with the Kansas City Chiefs tight end last summer.

Another supporter suggested that the shadow could be Swift’s nemesis Scooter Braun, who infamously bought the masters of her music catalog in 2019, prompting her to re-release her first six albums as “(Taylor’s Version)” to reclaim ownership of her work.

“Scooter still harassing her i see,” the fan commented.

Other hilarious guesses included Jesus, Slender Man, Spider-Man or just an “alien having a good time.”

“Thats just batman without his costume vibing,” another person wrote.

“Dancing phantoms on the terrace,” someone chimed in, quoting a lyric from Swift’s song “LOML.”

“I wouldnt be surprised if this was Kanye,” a social media user joked of the “Lover” singer’s other nemesis, Kanye West.

“Someone who doesn’t have to pay for tickets,” another quipped of the pricey shows.

While many fans were left dumbfounded by the “creepy” creature, others said the shadow was likely someone who worked at the stadium.

“The ‘mysterious figure’ just being a human,” an X user wrote.

“it was literally a security man, i was near to that section and he was standing there and checking on us all the time,” another witness claimed.

“It could be the tech people that does the lights and stuff,” another offered.

“It’s called a worker,” one more agreed.

Swift has been traveling the globe on her blockbuster tour since May 2023. She is set to perform at Scottish Gas Murrayfield Stadium in Edinburgh, Scotland, on Friday, Saturday and Sunday.
