What is the spooky figure video that went viral at King Charles III's coronation?

Charles III was crowned King on Saturday (May 6) in a lavish coronation ceremony at Westminster Abbey which was streamed for people across the globe. The rituals from the ceremony garnered a lot of interest among the people but a video that captures a spooky figure during the coronation has captured maximum attention and is currently going viral on social media like wildfire.

In the clip, we can see the ceremony taking place inside the Abbey but soon after the ceremonial march past, a hooded, cloaked figure is carrying something similar to a scythe and walking in the corridor outside the hall.

While it is a high possibility that he would be a member of the clergy, netizens were quick to come up with theories with many of them claiming that the figure is the harbinger of death aka Grim Reaper.
