One of the most instantly quotable and ridiculously hilarious internet sagas in recent memory has arrived on your FYP, in the form of the “Fiona, is that a ghost behind you” accidental spooky live fiasco. It’s all perfectly in time for Halloween, to be honest. You have definitely seen the saga or one of the endless edits on your FYP – because everyone’s obsessed with it and it’s inescapable right now. Here are the full origins of the “Fiona is that a ghost behind you” TikTok saga – for historical documentation purposes.
‘FIONAAAA’
The video emerged after a screen recording was taken of a live, where a woman who has yet to be identified was on a conversation with another follower of TikTok medium James Bucknell. On the live, @midnightjamesbucknell did a live with the unknown woman and thought a spirit was in the background because a pale face can be seen lingering over the shoulder. This was not a sighting of anything paranormal however, but a rather disgruntled and pissed off daughter of the woman.
Who, understandably, was a bit miffed she was called a ghost. The original video has been deleted, but you can watch it on YouTube here.
“Fiona, can you hear me? Is that a spirit in the background? FIONA!? IS THAT A GHOST BEHIND YOU?”
“No it’s my daughter.”
“IT BLOODY LOOKS LIKE ONE. OH MY GOD.”
“That’s a bit ROOD.”
“Well not when you look like you’re FLOATING, darlin!”
The memeification of ‘Fiona is that a ghost behind you’
Of course, the world would not let such a hilarious moment slide. It was not long til Brat entered the chat and everyone was working it out on the remix to Fiona and the ghost. Who wasn’t a ghost. But merely her daughter.

The Girl, so confusing edit of the Fiona meme went mega viral, and was actually how I was introduced to the saga myself. It got a dance remix too, of course.

But obviously, this has gone viral just before Halloween. People move too fast, because there is now Halloween costumes of the entire fiasco and I am literally crying.
