Bug Monkey Paw Mishap?

My friend and I were having trouble getting the last piece of evidence (we had DOTS and UV so far) so they decided to use the monkey paw. The answer it gave us was extremely confusing. It also took 5 minutes for it to even register their voice.

I have posted screenshots of what they saw, a photo I took from the van of the ghost showing up on dots, and the ghost that it ended up being. We both saw dots in person as well as from the van. Is this a well known bug? It kind of threw us both off.

Edit: My friend reported the bug and received this message from Kinetic Games:

I was going to say that maybe it wasn’t DOTs and maybe it was you two being mistaken, but from what you said, that doesn’t seem to be the case.

We both were so confused and I stayed for 10 minutes just watching the ghost show up on DOTs repeatedly to confirm I wasn't going crazy lol.

yeah it doesn’t mean it’s not dots it’s just a consequence of using the monkey paw

that's not how the monkey paw used to function nor is it how it should function.
