Staring at Camera Anomaly — Animal Hospital

CCTV Detection LayerEvidence: HIGH

Quick Answer

Staring at Cameras: the patient stares directly into the CCTV camera at all times — even while moving. In person and in the photo they look completely normal; only the security camera reveals it.

How to Spot It

  • The patient looks directly at the CCTV camera at all times (even while moving).
  • A normal patient stares straight ahead at the office — not at the camera.
  • The patient looks normal in person and in the photo.

"One of the most uncomfortable anomalies to witness" — CCTV-only.

What to Do

Reject the patient when you catch them staring into the camera.

Special Mechanics & Warnings

  • Don't confuse it with the Camera Monster — the broken-camera entity that zooms in and jump-scares you.

Source Disagreement

Wording resolved: Fandom says the patient looks at the camera at all times, IGN describes it as staring when you check the CCTV — different phrasing, same behavior.
