Mysterious Shadowy Figure Seen Alone in Rafters at Taylor Swift’s Madrid ‘Eras’ Show
Taylor Swift had an unexpected attendee at her Eras Tour concert in Madrid, Spain – and fans are running wild with theories of who it could’ve been.
In a video captured by a private TikTok user that later made the rounds on social media, an eerie, shadowy figure could be seen standing alone on top of the rafters as she performed for the crowd of 65,000 people. (It is unclear which show the figure was spotted at; Swift, 34, played two shows in Madrid on May 29 and May 30.)
While the unknown figure definitely resembles a human silhouette, it was seemingly a mystery of how they got up on the platform that hangs over the nosebleed section of the Santiago Bernabéu Stadium in the first place.
“Oh hell no….this is some phantom/ghost/spirit of the stadium. Or some creep that climbs stadiums apparently,” wrote one social media user, while another joked, “Joe Alwyn hiding in the rafters.” (Alwyn, 33, and Swift dated from 2016 to 2023.)

While others made quips that the mysterious concertgoer was Swift’s other ex, Matty Healy – who is the subject of multiple tracks on Swift’s newest album, The Tortured Poets Department – others had a more logical explanation for the sighting.
“Basically the Santiago Bernabeu has a ‘skywalk,’ a path around the stadium – look it up. It’s not ready yet for use,” they wrote alongside accompanying photos.
In a video posted to the official Real Madrid YouTube channel last year, its nearly 14 million subscribers got a glimpse of the skywalk being renovated. (The stadium is the home of the professional soccer club.)
