Police are hunting an alleged "stalker" dressed as Spider-Man who leaves mysterious packages on his victim’s doorstep.
A series of reports of concerning behavior, which span a year, prompted the investigation, in Hailsham Sussex.
Officers say stalking reports allege he left at least three packages at the door of a home in the town.
The suspect, wearing a Spider-Man mask, was caught on doorbell footage at a property near Western Road on August 26.
The last delivery, to the same address, was caught on camera on December 29 at around 7.10 p.m. - again the suspect had their face covered.
The victim also suffered a delivery, under similar circumstances, on February 13.
A spokesperson from Sussex Police said: "Enquiries into these incidents are ongoing, and we are asking anyone with information to report it to police.
"If you have CCTV, photos or witnessed anything suspicious in the area, you can contact police by filling an online reporting form, or by calling 101 quoting Operation Cursor."
