I mean, I mean, there's
nobody like that in the in the paranormal

have you been in West Virginia now? A little over two years? All

51
00:04:43,360 --> 00:04:47,160
two and a half. And I
happen to know you're in a really great

52
00:04:47,199 --> 00:04:51,279
place. I've had the pleasure of
visiting your humble abode deep in the holler

53
00:04:51,959 --> 00:04:56,480
up in the Panhandle there, and
it is it's really it's it's it's very

54
00:04:56,480 --> 00:04:59,279
picturesque. I mean, you guys, your house could actually be on a

55
00:04:59,319 --> 00:05:04,560
calendar. I mean, you've got
it's an older house, but we love

56
00:05:04,600 --> 00:05:08,480
it. You've got a brook,
You've got cats, you know, you've

57
00:05:08,519 --> 00:05:15,800
got everything. Yeah, and birds
and turkeys and deer. Oh and also

58
00:05:15,959 --> 00:05:19,399
a driveway. Will you take your
life in your hands getting out of the

59
00:05:19,439 --> 00:05:25,839
main road, Yeah, exactly.
Try try going over there. Every every

60
00:05:25,879 --> 00:05:29,879
morning or every afternoon and getting the
mail. It's like a scene from pet

61
00:05:29,959 --> 00:05:34,759
Cemetery trying to cross the road.
So what's it been like there? I

62
00:05:34,800 --> 00:05:38,959
mean, what what what's changed for
you? Or what what new avenues have

63
00:05:39,040 --> 00:05:45,600
opened since you've been there in this
area? Well basically, uh, you

64
00:05:45,639 --> 00:05:48,319
know being down here, you know, a whole new, different state.

65
00:05:49,079 --> 00:05:56,720
Although it actually we're only what about
seven miles from the water right and we're

66
00:05:56,720 --> 00:06:00,839
getting to do new it's born in
new places. Is meeting new people,

67
00:06:01,160 --> 00:06:08,279
uh, and just just getting the
word about both groups out there. We've

68
00:06:08,319 --> 00:06:14,279
had two done to Thomlinson. Thomlinson
are on Bigfoot Days. We're going to

69
00:06:14,399 --> 00:06:18,000
do a third this year. We're
going to be doing the West Virginia Northern

70
00:06:18,040 --> 00:06:24,759
Panhandle Conference and I think you did
see the poster Steve that we posted.

71
00:06:25,160 --> 00:06:30,240
Yes, yes, that'll be May
fourth and brook Kills Playhouse. And it's

72
00:06:30,319 --> 00:06:32,800
just fun. It's fun to be
in a new place, you know,

73
00:06:32,839 --> 00:06:40,000
after living all of our lives in
basically one state, and you've taken as

74
00:06:40,040 --> 00:06:43,959
you know, moving to West Virginia. Your yes, absolutely, just a

75
00:06:44,519 --> 00:06:47,120
lot of people we know have moved
to West Virginia for one reason or another.

76
00:06:47,600 --> 00:06:51,040
And of course I'm deep in the
heart of Point Pleasant, West Virginia,

77
00:06:51,120 --> 00:06:56,439
home with the moths Man. But
uh uh let's see, uh now,

78
00:06:56,519 --> 00:06:59,360
are there are there active groups there? I mean, do you have

79
00:06:59,399 --> 00:07:05,839
like meetings with different local groups out
that way? Well? What fred Fred

80
00:07:05,879 --> 00:07:12,360
Zeluga is here with the group West
Virginia q okay, And that's the only

81
00:07:12,439 --> 00:07:15,720
other other group that as of right
now that we you know, that's in

82
00:07:15,800 --> 00:07:20,040
the in the that's in the vicinity
here. Yeah. About about how far

83
00:07:20,079 --> 00:07:26,879
away is you from you guys group? Well, he used to be five

84
00:07:26,920 --> 00:07:30,079
miles, but now he's a little
further, maybe about nine miles now.

85
00:07:32,079 --> 00:07:36,759
And have you have you been picking
up any other like interesting reports and it's

86
00:07:36,839 --> 00:07:41,439
just from being out there, do
you are you picking up other reports of

87
00:07:41,519 --> 00:07:46,959
cryptids or or paranormal phenomena out that
way? Yeah? We uh we still

88
00:07:46,959 --> 00:07:50,560
we still I think at the last
time we talked to you, we're still

89
00:07:50,959 --> 00:07:59,399
researching the Beast of Bell Hill.
And if anybody has caught Sasquatch on Earth

90
00:07:59,439 --> 00:08:05,439
moldin State Monsters, there's a whole
episode just about I think it's called Season

91
00:08:05,439 --> 00:08:09,800
of the Sasquatch. I think is
what the name of the episode is and

92
00:08:09,879 --> 00:08:15,399
we go to Tomlinson Run and we
hiked down there and we talk about that

93
00:08:15,560 --> 00:08:20,920
sighting and some other sightings that we've
had down here, including this. Uh.

94
00:08:20,639 --> 00:08:28,240
We got a report I think it
was last on Chober of a basically

95
00:08:28,319 --> 00:08:31,399
a creature that the guy he drew
it for us. It kind of looks

96
00:08:31,439 --> 00:08:35,399
like the Jersey Devil, he said, the closest thing that I could equate

97
00:08:35,440 --> 00:08:39,200
to what this thing was. It
looked like the Jersey Devil. It had

98
00:08:39,240 --> 00:08:43,240
wings, it almost had like a
horse like head. And they were out

99
00:08:43,480 --> 00:08:48,240
looking for deer in Brook County,
which is the county right next to Hancock

100
00:08:48,320 --> 00:08:52,919
County, right below Hancock County,
and he said he saw these two two

101
00:08:52,960 --> 00:08:58,480
deer running out of the bushes and
this thing, the Jersey Devil, whatever

102
00:08:58,519 --> 00:09:01,080
you want to call it. It
started to walk. It took like three

103
00:09:01,120 --> 00:09:05,000
steps, and he said, and
then it spread its wings and it flew

104
00:09:05,039 --> 00:09:09,320
up in the air and flew away. Now, he we haven't been able

105
00:09:09,320 --> 00:09:11,039
to meet up with him to take
us to the spot because he's been sick.

106
00:09:11,159 --> 00:09:13,840
So we hope to do that here
in a couple of months. That

107
00:09:13,960 --> 00:09:20,879
was one of the new one of
the new ones re received. Wow wow,

108
00:09:20,279 --> 00:09:28,320
yeah, and that you feel the
witness is credible. Yeah. He

109
00:09:28,399 --> 00:09:33,440
actually met us at the Thomlinson run
Bigfoot Day and you know, him and

110
00:09:33,440 --> 00:09:37,840
his son both saw this thing and
just to look on his face when he

111
00:09:37,960 --> 00:09:39,720
told us, he said, you
know, you're not gonna believe this.

112
00:09:41,159 --> 00:09:43,559
He said, but this thing it
looked like the you know what the Jersey

113
00:09:43,639 --> 00:09:50,360
Devil looked like. And we received
another winged Nity report which was two years

114
00:09:50,399 --> 00:09:54,120
ago. It took place about three
years before that, and that was also

115
00:09:54,120 --> 00:09:58,600
a Thomlinson run. This creature looked
like a wing dentity type creature that actually

116
00:09:58,639 --> 00:10:01,360
flew over of the car. And
I asked her, I said, you

117
00:10:01,399 --> 00:10:05,840
know, you're sure wasn't an owl
thing, you know, Turkey vulture and

118
00:10:05,440 --> 00:10:13,399
some of your usual suspects, very
blue hair and husty. But she said

119
00:10:13,440 --> 00:10:18,039
no, she said, you know
this thing was actually when it flew over

120
00:10:18,080 --> 00:10:20,679
the car, it cast a shadow
over the whole car. He said,

121
00:10:20,679 --> 00:10:24,080
it was huge. So Fritz Lugu
when he was down here years ago,

122
00:10:24,120 --> 00:10:30,960
he received a report also out of
Hancock County of a mother and her daughter

123
00:10:31,879 --> 00:10:37,039
were camping outside of their their house
here in Hancock County and they hear noise.

124
00:10:37,080 --> 00:10:41,159
They were camped out by They had
this huge trampoline and they look in

125
00:10:41,240 --> 00:10:46,240
this winged humanoid creature actually crawled up
on a trampoline and they kind of looked

126
00:10:46,279 --> 00:10:48,799
at him, and then it flew
up into the tree and then it flew

127
00:10:48,840 --> 00:10:54,960
away. So we do believe that
we're in an area, very untapped area

128
00:10:56,039 --> 00:11:00,600
for sightings. We received also a
talk to a gentleman who claims that he

129
00:11:00,720 --> 00:11:07,399
saw a black panther at the Brook
County landfill. So and other blackmanther you

130
00:11:07,440 --> 00:11:09,600
know, people were starting to say, hey, you know, we know

131
00:11:09,679 --> 00:11:15,399
somebody who saw We never really talk
to anyone else, but apparently there's been

132
00:11:15,440 --> 00:11:20,120
black panther sightings down here. So
it is a very interesting area down here,

133
00:11:20,679 --> 00:11:24,720
you know. Rosemary Ellen Guiley,
at the end of one of the

134
00:11:24,759 --> 00:11:28,720
Mothman festivals, got a report from
a lady that lived in Cross Village,

135
00:11:28,120 --> 00:11:33,639
isn't that far from Charleston, and
she saw a creature that she described.

136
00:11:33,799 --> 00:11:37,279
She didn't know anything about the Jersey
devil, but what she described was very

137
00:11:37,360 --> 00:11:39,840
much like a Jersey devil as well. And that particular piece of land,

138
00:11:39,840 --> 00:11:45,440
although it's right near a busy,
little two lane highway was just they had.

139
00:11:46,000 --> 00:11:48,679
We went over there to talk to
them one time and it was just

140
00:11:48,720 --> 00:11:54,039
bizarre. They were finishing each other's
sentences. They were having classic haunting phenomena,

141
00:11:54,399 --> 00:11:58,840
seeing shadow people moving across the land, hearing like disembodied voices down on

142
00:11:58,879 --> 00:12:03,440
the holler, I seeing classic UFOs
overhead. So it was this one little

143
00:12:03,480 --> 00:12:09,679
spot was just a really highly active
area and it was you topped off with

144
00:12:09,759 --> 00:12:13,399
some kind of a like a Jersey
devil type creature. These uh, these

145
00:12:13,399 --> 00:12:16,639
big, big bigfoot days. How
what are they attended? Well, we've

146
00:12:16,639 --> 00:12:20,480
had two so far, and the
first one we had what over one hundred

147
00:12:20,480 --> 00:12:22,480
and sixty some people. Yeah,
it was well attended. The second one

148
00:12:22,519 --> 00:12:26,080
they didn't do as much advertising.
They forgot to put it on. It

149
00:12:26,120 --> 00:12:28,720
was also around the four fourth of
July, we had about half We had

150
00:12:28,759 --> 00:12:33,440
about okay, about eighty. But
still it's still pretty good attendant. Yeah.

151
00:12:33,559 --> 00:12:37,440
Still you'll get a lot of people
that are just really really interested in

152
00:12:37,480 --> 00:12:41,519
the subject exactly we're you know,
Fred's been down here, Fred Seluga,

153
00:12:41,559 --> 00:12:45,480
He's been down here about like thirteen
or fourteen years. And we've been down

154
00:12:45,480 --> 00:12:48,240
here, Like I said, two
and a half and it's really taken off

155
00:12:48,240 --> 00:12:52,279
now people you know, you know, they know Fred here. Believe me,

156
00:12:52,320 --> 00:12:56,279
they know Fred. Now they're starting
to uh, some of them are

157
00:12:56,279 --> 00:13:01,080
starting to come to us. And
a lot of it too with the small

158
00:13:01,120 --> 00:13:05,720
town monsters. We actually talked to
a guy today who found to Thomas and

159
00:13:05,799 --> 00:13:09,919
Run Park. He said he was
at an area of the park which actually

160
00:13:09,080 --> 00:13:15,240
is adjacent to where we filmed,
you know, on a trail up in

161
00:13:15,639 --> 00:13:18,120
Thomlinson. And he says, you
know what, He goes, I lived

162
00:13:18,159 --> 00:13:20,840
next to the park all my life. He said. About seven years ago,

163
00:13:20,679 --> 00:13:24,200
we were out hiking and he said
they got to this one area and

164
00:13:24,240 --> 00:13:28,879
he said, he just he was
a former military man and he says,

165
00:13:30,000 --> 00:13:31,000
he said, you know what,
I've never been spooked. I've never been

166
00:13:31,039 --> 00:13:33,960
scared. He said, but I
was looking, I didn't see anything.

167
00:13:35,000 --> 00:13:37,399
It was in the winter, and
he said, but it felt like there

168
00:13:37,440 --> 00:13:39,960
was something watching me. So we're
actually going to go out Saturday. Him

169
00:13:39,960 --> 00:13:45,399
and his daughter are coming. He's
going to take us to the to this

170
00:13:45,480 --> 00:13:46,600
exact spot. He says, if
you want to do it, it's about

171
00:13:46,600 --> 00:13:50,879
a mile back hike. I said, yeah, Because we're trying to plot

172
00:13:50,919 --> 00:13:54,919
all these areas where there's either been
you know, alleged sighting. We got

173
00:13:54,919 --> 00:14:00,720
a report from a woman who claims
it she was walking one of the which

174
00:14:00,720 --> 00:14:05,360
would have been an adjacent trail,
was walking with her dog and all of

175
00:14:05,399 --> 00:14:09,480
a sudden the dog stops and they
hear this how. She said it sounded

176
00:14:09,559 --> 00:14:13,919
like that one of the house from
finding Bigfoot. So again we we had

177
00:14:13,919 --> 00:14:18,360
another report of a how coming from
one of the cabins, and this would

178
00:14:18,360 --> 00:14:22,399
have been about ten years ago.
So we're starting to piece it together some

179
00:14:22,480 --> 00:14:26,559
areas to start really looking heavily into. So it's it's gonna be a fun

180
00:14:26,639 --> 00:14:33,159
year. Now. Is that tell
us about your experience with small town monsters

181
00:14:33,159 --> 00:14:39,399
and the UH the documentary you're part
of. Yeah, we were. I

182
00:14:39,600 --> 00:14:45,919
was, you know, in the
first UH Sasquatch on Earth, the Ridge

183
00:14:46,000 --> 00:14:50,240
and that that was in Pennsylvania,
the Chestnut Ridge in Pennsylvania, and in

184
00:14:50,320 --> 00:14:52,639
it, I talked about when we
were in the Old pa Bigfoot Society and

185
00:14:52,639 --> 00:14:56,200
some of the things that we did, and we talked about Bigfoot and this

186
00:14:56,200 --> 00:15:03,600
this late latest one Mountain Saint Monsters. It was strictly on West Virginia and

187
00:15:03,639 --> 00:15:05,559
Seth came and he filmed up you
know, he filmed in our library.

188
00:15:07,240 --> 00:15:11,200
And then another time Heather and some
other some of the other members came and

189
00:15:11,200 --> 00:15:16,759
then they filmed us walking in this
trail at Tom and Thomas and run Front

190
00:15:16,759 --> 00:15:24,320
Park. Yeah, and has that
Yeah that one? When did it?

191
00:15:24,360 --> 00:15:30,000
Was it this summer October? I
think it was for I think it started

192
00:15:30,039 --> 00:15:33,480
in the midsummer and ended beginning of
September. It's like six episodes, I

193
00:15:33,480 --> 00:15:37,240
think. Okay, yes, it's
pretty good, you know, Yeah,

194
00:15:37,240 --> 00:15:43,200
he does a a a well uh
does a well produced documentary. Yes,

195
00:15:43,360 --> 00:15:46,519
if I do say so myself.
My my favorite might be the mock Band

196
00:15:46,600 --> 00:15:50,320
Legacy, where I handsome Countenance in
there occasionally. Yeah, there's a guy

197
00:15:50,360 --> 00:15:54,320
that looks just like you on there. It was it was funny, you

198
00:15:54,320 --> 00:15:58,360
know, it's it's playing in back
of the Moth fam Museum. And I

199
00:15:58,399 --> 00:16:02,080
walked back the one time and the
woman looks at me and says, were

200
00:16:02,080 --> 00:16:03,159
you on that just now? And
I said, yeah, that was me.

201
00:16:03,360 --> 00:16:10,519
That was Well, that's pretty cool. I mean, it's it's part

202
00:16:10,559 --> 00:16:12,240
of one of his productions. Because
uh, you know, I I've been

203
00:16:12,279 --> 00:16:17,360
filmed maybe I don't know, four
times, maybe even five times on things

204
00:16:17,360 --> 00:16:21,879
that have never materialized. Of course, there was there's the one What's what's

205
00:16:21,919 --> 00:16:27,000
that Mountain Devil four or five or
whatever it is where it's kind of a

206
00:16:27,000 --> 00:16:33,120
a mockumentary, yes, where where
the evil subsquatches you can tell they're wearing

207
00:16:33,159 --> 00:16:36,720
shirts. You know. Somehow it
takes the takes the terror out of it

208
00:16:36,799 --> 00:16:40,679
somehow. But uh uh, we
were in that. We were in the

209
00:16:40,679 --> 00:16:44,679
first two, right right. You
were in the legitimate ones. I was

210
00:16:44,679 --> 00:16:48,759
in the bizarre one. Yeah.
Yeah. It's funny because a friend of

211
00:16:48,799 --> 00:16:52,080
ours, Dave Rupert, there's a
scene where he's being attacked by a one

212
00:16:52,080 --> 00:16:56,000
of these evil subsquatches outside, but
the camera fades out, so you don't

213
00:16:56,039 --> 00:17:03,919
know whether the subsquatch killed him or
ate him. Uh uh. Earlier,

214
00:17:03,279 --> 00:17:07,480
Brandy and I were talking a little
bit about your light Anomaly group. Uh

215
00:17:07,720 --> 00:17:11,440
can you can you talk to us
a little bit about that? How what

216
00:17:11,519 --> 00:17:15,680
was the genesis of that and and
uh how that got started. Well,

217
00:17:17,359 --> 00:17:23,359
we we had been getting reports and
people bigfoot researchers who uh they they've been

218
00:17:23,480 --> 00:17:26,920
they were out, they were out, you know, researching bigfoot, and

219
00:17:26,039 --> 00:17:29,960
they said, you know what,
we we saw these lights in the woods.

220
00:17:30,200 --> 00:17:33,720
They looked like light spheres. They
were they were either yellow white,

221
00:17:33,200 --> 00:17:40,559
I think red, and they were
in an area that that it had active

222
00:17:40,960 --> 00:17:45,599
and was having active Bigfoot activity.
So and then we started to hear from

223
00:17:45,599 --> 00:17:48,240
other researchers. You know, we
talked to other researchers and they're like,

224
00:17:48,240 --> 00:17:51,839
you know what, these these these
are bigfoot people. They were out,

225
00:17:51,880 --> 00:17:55,400
you know, they were out in
the night expedition and they're seeing these strange

226
00:17:55,440 --> 00:17:59,880
lights in the woods. So we've
been hearing that for about ten years before

227
00:17:59,920 --> 00:18:07,599
we started a project with a man
named Todd Bonner and he he says,

228
00:18:07,640 --> 00:18:11,559
we talked to him about these lights. He says, I could build you

229
00:18:11,599 --> 00:18:17,480
a frequency machine that might be able
to how do we say it, interact

230
00:18:17,519 --> 00:18:26,720
with these things right, attract somehow, you know. And so he build

231
00:18:26,839 --> 00:18:29,559
us this thing. And we've been
doing this for above four years now.

232
00:18:29,599 --> 00:18:33,160
It's like it's funny because I tell
people, I'm like, we love this

233
00:18:33,200 --> 00:18:37,720
project that we're doing. We've done
about maybe thirteen or fourteen tests, we

234
00:18:37,839 --> 00:18:42,000
called them tests. It actually couldn't
have come at a worse time because right

235
00:18:42,039 --> 00:18:47,519
when we started, we were in
the process of getting our house ready to

236
00:18:47,559 --> 00:18:49,680
move, then we moved to her
sisters, then we moved down here,

237
00:18:49,799 --> 00:18:53,440
then we got COVID, and so
it's been a really we probably couldn't have

238
00:18:53,480 --> 00:18:57,000
actually started at a worse time,
believe it or not. But now that

239
00:18:57,079 --> 00:19:03,640
everything's pretty much a go, and
uh, we do want it. We

240
00:19:03,680 --> 00:19:07,920
have some some different ideas what to
do with this thing, and some different

241
00:19:07,920 --> 00:19:11,039
places and with some different people to
do it with. And uh, I

242
00:19:11,319 --> 00:19:15,480
don't know. I think we might
have shown you the uh yeah, yeah,

243
00:19:15,960 --> 00:19:18,359
yeah, the machine. Well yeah, yeah, okay, so there's

244
00:19:18,400 --> 00:19:22,039
a lot more to it than we
have to add to it. Working with

245
00:19:22,119 --> 00:19:26,680
some other people too, and I
have some really big plans for it,

246
00:19:26,680 --> 00:19:33,440
but I know some of them might
not actually be safe to do, so

247
00:19:33,440 --> 00:19:36,359
we can we got to do.
I have the money to do what I

248
00:19:36,400 --> 00:19:37,599
really want to do. With some
of them, we don't know what would

249
00:19:37,599 --> 00:19:41,920
happen. But yeah, well I'm
saying that you need some volunteers, you

250
00:19:41,920 --> 00:19:48,240
know, for this. Yeah yeah, well, hopefully we get you downstate.

251
00:19:48,279 --> 00:19:49,920
Maybe we can get you down for
the for the conference, and then

252
00:19:49,960 --> 00:19:55,880
you know, maybe do a even
a frequency experiment right here by the water.

253
00:19:56,279 --> 00:19:57,960
Now, is this one of those
that isn't terribly safe or is this

254
00:19:59,240 --> 00:20:03,119
a safer one? No, this
is safe for one some of the ideas

255
00:20:03,119 --> 00:20:07,400
that I have maybe had on my
numbers. Okay, I'm gonna ask I'm

256
00:20:07,440 --> 00:20:12,319
gonna ask Terry first to make sure
that everything's kosher. Can you describe the

257
00:20:12,400 --> 00:20:17,039
machine at all? Is it?
Is it a frequency that like a light

258
00:20:17,079 --> 00:20:22,519
frequency that inmates or is it a
like a vibrational frequency that I mean,

259
00:20:22,880 --> 00:20:30,720
I guess what what is it?
It's a vibrational frequency. It's actually two

260
00:20:30,119 --> 00:20:34,200
what are they called the globes.
Yeah. He encased them in the big

261
00:20:34,240 --> 00:20:40,319
plastic tubing to protect it for us
to take out into the field and we

262
00:20:40,400 --> 00:20:47,759
connect at what what's called a spooky
too, the ripe right kind of it's

263
00:20:47,839 --> 00:20:51,240
kind of like a ripe machine.
Yeah, And we hook it up to

264
00:20:51,400 --> 00:20:56,200
that and we set it to different
frequencies to play out, and he says

265
00:20:56,240 --> 00:21:03,920
it it's the frequencies go out in
a radius of ten. Yeah. Wow,

266
00:21:03,960 --> 00:21:07,759
do you are you? Can you
feel or hear the frequencies or are

267
00:21:07,759 --> 00:21:14,680
they silent to you? You could
you could feel them? We actually would.

268
00:21:15,000 --> 00:21:22,039
We had several psychics with us on
different outings using these, and they

269
00:21:22,039 --> 00:21:26,839
could definitely feel them, and there's
one particular frequency that they asked us not

270
00:21:26,000 --> 00:21:32,680
to ever play again because it bothered
them. And actually one of the places

271
00:21:32,680 --> 00:21:34,640
that we did at Steve was the
place we took you down at the Beaver

272
00:21:34,720 --> 00:21:40,200
Crushed State Park. Well okay,
now this this wasn't a Taylor Swift c

273
00:21:40,359 --> 00:21:48,119
D the frequency, right, I
just thought I checked. Uh. But

274
00:21:48,119 --> 00:21:52,240
but seriously, uh, Andy,
you know when I think about like phenomenon,

275
00:21:52,759 --> 00:21:56,799
uh, somebody we we are familiar
with Paul Sinclair who has written the

276
00:21:57,079 --> 00:22:03,400
Truth Proof books. Uh, and
he's done an investigations in North and East

277
00:22:03,480 --> 00:22:07,279
Yorkshire. We are on each other's
show and if you read his books,

278
00:22:07,079 --> 00:22:11,480
he has uh he's witnessed and even
photographed many. I mean, there's all

279
00:22:11,599 --> 00:22:17,079
kinds of other bizarre things going on. Black panthers, dog men like creatures,

280
00:22:17,720 --> 00:22:21,839
triangles and everything. But there's a
heavy, heavy, heavy amount of

281
00:22:21,920 --> 00:22:26,960
light anomalies not and not not craft
but you know, orbs or or or

282
00:22:26,039 --> 00:22:33,920
or whatever mm hm we see we
don't we don't know if like me and

283
00:22:33,200 --> 00:22:37,799
me and you, I know talk
a lot about Trevor James, Trevor James

284
00:22:37,799 --> 00:22:41,799
Constable and his sky creature and we've
got a lot of conversations about that,

285
00:22:41,920 --> 00:22:45,839
and some people think, you know, maybe some of these this is energy,

286
00:22:45,880 --> 00:22:49,440
these are actually physical, you know, like a physical energy being.

287
00:22:49,480 --> 00:22:52,680
We don't, we don't know what
they Well, there does seem to be

288
00:22:52,720 --> 00:22:57,920
a connection with with bigfoot areas or
sightings and some of these lights. I

289
00:22:57,920 --> 00:23:03,000
mean, even Ronad in the Sierra
Nevadas was experiencing a great deal of light

290
00:23:03,039 --> 00:23:08,079
phenomena, but and also very classic, very physical seeming bigfoots. And of

291
00:23:08,079 --> 00:23:12,480
course he's the one that captured the
Sierra sounds, these recordings. So there's

292
00:23:12,559 --> 00:23:17,200
some kind of bizarre connection there that
makes me think of where was it.

293
00:23:17,240 --> 00:23:19,880
There was a time when when you
guys went out to an area that was

294
00:23:21,000 --> 00:23:26,000
known for i think bigfoot sightings and
and what they thought were bigfoot calls.

295
00:23:26,559 --> 00:23:30,519
Uh, And you went out in
that area and instead of finding a big

296
00:23:30,599 --> 00:23:36,160
foot, you saw a strange light
in the sky. Yeah. It in

297
00:23:36,160 --> 00:23:41,240
Pennsylvania, Livermore, Livermoo, Livermore
Yeah, uh Livermore, Uh, but

298
00:23:41,839 --> 00:23:45,279
by the cemetery. But it was
on the county Pennsylvania. Yeah, pen

299
00:23:45,359 --> 00:23:49,480
here at his trails where it happened. Yeah. And the one time we

300
00:23:49,519 --> 00:23:52,880
did that, we had a Leah
with us, and you know how Leah

301
00:23:52,880 --> 00:23:57,240
has a peculiar laugh, right,
we'll say that we were on top of

302
00:23:57,279 --> 00:24:03,799
a bridge over over I think it
was the Kanamaua river, right, wasn't

303
00:24:03,839 --> 00:24:07,359
it, And so she, you
know, she laughed and it echoed whatever

304
00:24:07,400 --> 00:24:11,039
you would do, it echoes,
and we did hear some kind of a

305
00:24:11,079 --> 00:24:15,079
scream, right, some kind of
a scream. And then later on I

306
00:24:15,119 --> 00:24:18,480
took another group. Terry was with
one group. I took another group and

307
00:24:18,519 --> 00:24:25,440
we hiked, ah, maybe not
quite a mile. So we sat there

308
00:24:25,480 --> 00:24:29,559
and we see this light. It
looked like, i looked like a ball,

309
00:24:29,680 --> 00:24:36,359
a white ball, but it looked
like almost like a rail a rail

310
00:24:36,440 --> 00:24:40,359
worker on a railroad. As he
was he would be walking towards you,

311
00:24:40,480 --> 00:24:42,799
swinging that lantern, and it looked
like it was swinging back and forth.

312
00:24:44,480 --> 00:24:47,720
Right, So it got up you
know, it got up close. It

313
00:24:47,759 --> 00:24:51,480
was weird because you could this was
kind of reverse. You could see it

314
00:24:51,559 --> 00:24:55,599
in the night vision camera, but
it wouldn't record or when you put your

315
00:24:55,720 --> 00:25:00,279
you know, you you didn't see
it as well with your eye as she

316
00:25:00,359 --> 00:25:03,000
did with the camera. But we
started to walk toward them, it just

317
00:25:03,039 --> 00:25:07,880
disappeared. It was really weird.
It was one of the weirder instances we've

318
00:25:07,880 --> 00:25:15,680
ever had home. So that the
object was fairly small, probably about a

319
00:25:15,720 --> 00:25:18,839
little bit smaller than maybe a basketball, Okay, not quite a basketball,

320
00:25:18,839 --> 00:25:25,000
a little smaller than a basketball.
Yeah. Wow, Well it's it's not

321
00:25:25,079 --> 00:25:26,119
too bad. You didn't get to
see a bigfoot, but you got to

322
00:25:26,119 --> 00:25:30,519
see a strange moving light. Yeah. I'm still still hoping for the big

323
00:25:30,559 --> 00:25:36,480
foot one though. That's my that's
kind of like my you know, maybe

324
00:25:36,519 --> 00:25:40,160
our end game in this, just
to see it. So we could,

325
00:25:40,200 --> 00:25:41,799
you know, say, hey,
you know, we haven't wasted all this

326
00:25:41,920 --> 00:25:47,000
time, energy and money we didn't
have looking for something that may not be

327
00:25:47,039 --> 00:25:51,000
out there, although although we somehow
think it is out there, maybe not

328
00:25:51,079 --> 00:25:55,519
as as you know, classical was
maybe what people think it may be.

329
00:25:55,640 --> 00:26:03,680
So the uh, let's let's talk
a little bit about the upcoming Butler conference

330
00:26:03,720 --> 00:26:07,759
as well. How's that shaping up? Do we know who the speakers are

331
00:26:07,880 --> 00:26:10,039
yet? Or? And by the
way, when when is it gonna be

332
00:26:10,079 --> 00:26:15,640
held? What's the date? April
twenty seventh's last Saturday. He's good,

333
00:26:15,640 --> 00:26:19,319
she's checking on that right now.
Okay, last Saturday in April okay.

334
00:26:19,960 --> 00:26:26,519
Yeah, and so far it's Terry
and I for sure. Yeah, we

335
00:26:26,000 --> 00:26:30,000
he's got a bunch of feelers.
We should know here within a couple of

336
00:26:30,000 --> 00:26:34,079
weeks because he wants Okay, he's
asked some people. I've asked one particular

337
00:26:34,119 --> 00:26:41,400
person I have as well for Jim. Yes, I know that hopefully you

338
00:26:41,440 --> 00:26:45,279
know I know who that person is, and we'd love to get her there.

339
00:26:45,839 --> 00:26:49,640
That would be great. But we
should tell people that this really is

340
00:26:51,000 --> 00:26:56,960
a great conference. It's very affordable, it lasts to day. Dan always

341
00:26:56,000 --> 00:27:02,759
lines up a great bunch of speakers. Uh you know, they're not all

342
00:27:02,759 --> 00:27:08,039
the same, and you can get
they've got food right there, and it's

343
00:27:08,119 --> 00:27:11,519
just there's a lot of tables,
a lot of people to talk to,

344
00:27:11,160 --> 00:27:17,640
and it's just really a good time. Yeah. Eight is April twenty seventh.

345
00:27:17,720 --> 00:27:22,319
It's ten to seven, okay,
okay. And my question, not

346
00:27:22,440 --> 00:27:26,839
being from that area, is is
this solely a big Foot conference or does

347
00:27:26,880 --> 00:27:33,960
it cover just an an array of
topics. No, it covers all the

348
00:27:34,039 --> 00:27:40,319
everything under the paranormal umbrella. We
try to get speakers on different topics.

349
00:27:40,559 --> 00:27:45,799
Okay, Brandy, They trying to
cover the ghosts, the Bigfoot, UFOs,

350
00:27:45,799 --> 00:27:52,160
and other topics, you know,
in that realm, and they even

351
00:27:52,240 --> 00:27:57,160
let me speak there before. That's
right, you were in I did they

352
00:27:57,240 --> 00:28:02,039
really enjoyed you there? Yeah,
well that's good. That's good. And

353
00:28:02,119 --> 00:28:03,720
I missed you a couple of times
with those tomatoes and you know next time,

354
00:28:06,119 --> 00:28:07,640
well listen, you know, I'm
getting little slower. I don't have

355
00:28:07,720 --> 00:28:15,039
the reflexes I used to do.
So, so we're we're doing a very

356
00:28:15,359 --> 00:28:17,799
and hopefully you can come to the
Steve. I mean you're welcome to stay

357
00:28:17,799 --> 00:28:22,400
here again like you did last year. Yep, we're doing Terry and I

358
00:28:22,400 --> 00:28:26,559
are doing a presentation that we've done
We've done parts one in parts two at

359
00:28:26,559 --> 00:28:30,279
the Vickery. It's called Our Weird
World, right, and it's a very

360
00:28:30,319 --> 00:28:37,039
different How do we say it?
How do we say this? It's we

361
00:28:37,119 --> 00:28:41,599
sprinkle comedy in with facts. Yeah, we sprinkle comedy, we sprinkle pop

362
00:28:41,640 --> 00:28:48,720
culture, and and we talk about
things from cryptids to ghost to UFOs around

363
00:28:48,759 --> 00:28:52,880
the world, around the world,
and a lot that people have never heard

364
00:28:52,920 --> 00:28:59,039
of, and we put our own
special twist on it. It's it's we've

365
00:28:59,039 --> 00:29:03,640
never had as much fun making doing
the presentations as we have. The first

366
00:29:03,640 --> 00:29:07,640
two so we're gonna combine them together. We're gonna add some stuff and subtract

367
00:29:07,680 --> 00:29:12,039
some stuff, and whoever's going to
be there, they either laugh or they'll

368
00:29:12,039 --> 00:29:22,160
be throwing tomatoes at us. I
love it, but I always enjoy that

369
00:29:22,240 --> 00:29:26,039
event. But you know, this
is the am I correct and saying that

370
00:29:26,079 --> 00:29:33,200
this is the third interview you've had
this week, A second one to next

371
00:29:33,200 --> 00:29:38,880
Tuesday, and then I have two
two in March, back to back Fridays.

372
00:29:40,039 --> 00:29:42,240
So yeah, I mean it's I
think I put out there. I

373
00:29:42,240 --> 00:29:45,039
don't really do a lot, but
it's weird. Every time I seem to

374
00:29:45,039 --> 00:29:47,920
do one, I seem to do
them in plumps, right, I mean,

375
00:29:47,960 --> 00:29:52,119
I seem to do them within I
might not do I might do one

376
00:29:52,400 --> 00:29:53,920
like in six months, and then
all of a sudden, I do three

377
00:29:53,960 --> 00:29:57,359
or four in two months. It's
just really weird. But I do try

378
00:29:57,400 --> 00:30:02,799
to take advantage of those opportunities when
they're presented. And uh ah, like

379
00:30:02,920 --> 00:30:06,079
last night's was a blast. I
was on Joe. His name is Joe

380
00:30:06,119 --> 00:30:08,559
Perrie. It was a pair of
a pair of blues out of Deep New

381
00:30:08,640 --> 00:30:12,400
York, and we had met Joe
a couple of times, and well he

382
00:30:12,440 --> 00:30:15,839
would be a great guy, Steve, to get on your on the show.

383
00:30:15,880 --> 00:30:23,160
Here, give everybody kind of a
reader's digest version about what you guys

384
00:30:23,359 --> 00:30:27,400
talked about so they can watch for
it when it comes out. Okay,

385
00:30:27,480 --> 00:30:30,599
well we we basically talked. He
wanted to talk about big putting creatures,

386
00:30:30,960 --> 00:30:34,440
Okay, but we also did go
into uh frequencies a little bit, and

387
00:30:34,559 --> 00:30:41,000
uh it's ironic. He's even doing
some kind of a frequency thing for maybe

388
00:30:41,039 --> 00:30:44,039
talk with spirits, so we thought
he thought that was pretty neat what we've

389
00:30:44,079 --> 00:30:48,839
been doing. But mainly crypt is
we talked mainly crypt I think we might

390
00:30:48,839 --> 00:30:52,119
have thrown a little bit of UFOs
in there too. Generally in my talks,

391
00:30:52,119 --> 00:30:56,319
it's funny we people want to start
talking about big Book, but then

392
00:30:56,319 --> 00:31:00,440
we go into Mothman, which is
still my fa second favorite Steve, you

393
00:31:00,480 --> 00:31:03,400
know that, and then we dog
Man and things like that. So there's

394
00:31:03,480 --> 00:31:07,880
just so many interesting things out there
to talk just about Bigfoot constantly actually gets

395
00:31:07,960 --> 00:31:11,000
boring. So but you know,
you're a great guy, Brian, but

396
00:31:11,039 --> 00:31:15,440
you do have that one character flaw
where a Mothman is second. Yeah,

397
00:31:15,480 --> 00:31:21,160
but he's a very very close second. I mean, even as a kid

398
00:31:21,200 --> 00:31:25,039
even as a kid, Steve,
when I read that first encounter about how

399
00:31:26,200 --> 00:31:32,359
when it was first seen by Scarberry
and do you remember it in the newspaper

400
00:31:33,319 --> 00:31:36,680
when he went a first hit?
I actually think I read in the UFO

401
00:31:36,759 --> 00:31:40,000
magazine believe it or not. Okay, okay, And when this creature was

402
00:31:40,200 --> 00:31:42,160
flying alongside the car going one hundred
miles an hour, I was like,

403
00:31:42,200 --> 00:31:47,640
fat that that had an e hook
right there. Well, I was like,

404
00:31:48,079 --> 00:31:49,400
don't go ahead. Oh And it
was like that. I mean,

405
00:31:49,440 --> 00:31:53,480
it's like wow, wing identity.
I mean it looked like like a monster.

406
00:31:55,079 --> 00:31:57,559
And uh that was just like I
mean, it was. It was

407
00:31:57,680 --> 00:32:00,799
unbelievable. And I started to read
and research as much as I can't could

408
00:32:00,839 --> 00:32:06,119
about it and anything mothmam was like
wow. And then when I found out

409
00:32:06,200 --> 00:32:09,480
later on there was I don't call
them mothman. We call them like wing

410
00:32:09,640 --> 00:32:13,680
entities, is what we put them
all under, right, except mothman is

411
00:32:13,720 --> 00:32:15,880
mothman, but the rest we just
say that they're wing entities. Some people

412
00:32:16,440 --> 00:32:21,680
will call them wing humanoids. But
man, that is like you know that

413
00:32:21,799 --> 00:32:22,960
in dog Man. I mean,
it's probably like my one, two,

414
00:32:22,960 --> 00:32:28,640
and three as far as best things
to talk about well, of course most

415
00:32:28,640 --> 00:32:31,559
people know that. I was in
junior high in Michigan at the time,

416
00:32:32,160 --> 00:32:37,720
November sixty six, and we come
off the wave of UFO sightings in March,

417
00:32:37,759 --> 00:32:39,960
you know where Heinech came down and
said some of them swamp gasts.

418
00:32:40,079 --> 00:32:44,720
Right. Well, the foo went
November, right the found of November,

419
00:32:44,839 --> 00:32:47,160
it hit the wire services. And
if you go into the Mothmam Museum,

420
00:32:47,319 --> 00:32:52,400
of course, Jeff Wansley has collected
all these newspaper articles. You'll even see

421
00:32:52,519 --> 00:32:58,000
in the Stars and Stripes military newspaper
that first report of the winged humanoid that

422
00:32:58,079 --> 00:33:01,400
chase the two couples down Route six
too. And I remember reading that and

423
00:33:01,440 --> 00:33:06,960
I thought, how cool is that? You know, I mean it really,

424
00:33:07,039 --> 00:33:08,640
it really is. And then uh, later on I started reading like

425
00:33:08,680 --> 00:33:13,359
you probably did, John Keel's articles
and so forth. Ye, yeah,

426
00:33:14,039 --> 00:33:21,400
fascinating, just you know it was, It's just amazing and for people to

427
00:33:22,920 --> 00:33:27,400
downplay what the eyewitnesses saw and uh, you know, of course, you

428
00:33:27,440 --> 00:33:30,160
know, you know her very well. Let this Sigma and I was able

429
00:33:30,200 --> 00:33:32,240
to talk with her at Monster Fest
last year, and that that was like

430
00:33:32,279 --> 00:33:36,319
such a thrill to talk with her. And Terry you have to make.

431
00:33:36,359 --> 00:33:38,359
I can't wait for you to meet
her because she's just it was a fat

432
00:33:38,480 --> 00:33:40,880
I still have to listen to your
podcast with her. Remember we never did

433
00:33:42,000 --> 00:33:45,680
listen to that, you know,
just to just to hear an encounter.

434
00:33:47,119 --> 00:33:52,960
Yeah, she's she's so credible.
Yes, yes, I mean, come

435
00:33:53,000 --> 00:33:55,960
on, that's not a sand hill
crane, guys, come on, I

436
00:33:55,960 --> 00:34:00,519
mean, it's like that doesn't do
justice to what these peop people who lived

437
00:34:00,559 --> 00:34:04,799
down there all their life, what
they saw. Its actually an insult to

438
00:34:04,880 --> 00:34:07,640
them, you know, And just
warning you it is. It is a

439
00:34:07,680 --> 00:34:10,199
long podcast, it's about two hours. And part of the reason is the

440
00:34:10,239 --> 00:34:14,760
guest co host was the Creature Seeker
you know who that is, right,

441
00:34:15,159 --> 00:34:19,039
Oh yeah, yes, he might
be a little winded sometimes and all good,

442
00:34:19,079 --> 00:34:22,079
good stuff. But but anyway,
the thing is you want to stay

443
00:34:22,119 --> 00:34:28,800
with it to the end because Linda
Siegmund has had bigfoot type activity out in

444
00:34:28,880 --> 00:34:32,079
the general area where she lives in
a in a rural area around Parkersburg.

445
00:34:32,400 --> 00:34:37,519
I mean, bizarre stuff and some
of it mimics what Ron Moorehead went through

446
00:34:37,880 --> 00:34:42,039
with all the noises and the things, you know, beating on the house

447
00:34:42,079 --> 00:34:45,880
and anyway, it's just it's really
fascinating. So I mean there's yeah,

448
00:34:45,920 --> 00:34:51,320
yeah, there's a lot lot going
on there. Uh and uh yeah,

449
00:34:51,440 --> 00:34:54,320
so that's uh one other things.
You know, it made me something that

450
00:34:54,400 --> 00:35:00,400
kind of corroborates the uh, the
Scarberry and the Mallet encounter. Those the

451
00:35:00,440 --> 00:35:04,360
two couples that on November fifteenth,
nineteen sixty six, were by the old

452
00:35:04,400 --> 00:35:08,119
North Power Plant in the tt area. They saw this six seven foot tall

453
00:35:08,199 --> 00:35:13,559
creature ten foot wingspan, red glowing
eyes that chased them into Point Pleasant.

454
00:35:13,800 --> 00:35:16,599
Well some years later, not too
long ago, a few years back,

455
00:35:17,039 --> 00:35:21,920
Jeff Walmsley, who runs them Offman
Museum, was approached by a woman who

456
00:35:22,039 --> 00:35:24,599
used to be a nurse at the
hospital there and she said, you know,

457
00:35:24,760 --> 00:35:30,079
that night two women were admitted late
at night to be treated for shock,

458
00:35:30,000 --> 00:35:35,280
and she did not know who they
were for sure. So Jeff went

459
00:35:35,320 --> 00:35:39,480
to Linda Scarberry and said, Linda, were you and Mary admitted to the

460
00:35:39,519 --> 00:35:44,039
hospital that night? And she said, yeah, they treated us for shock.

461
00:35:44,320 --> 00:35:46,320
You know, we went in there
late. So that's isn't that interesting

462
00:35:46,360 --> 00:35:51,000
how that kind of collaborates. I
mean, if they were just spinning a

463
00:35:51,000 --> 00:35:54,199
wild tail, they would not have
gone to those lengths to pretend like they

464
00:35:54,199 --> 00:36:00,800
were they needed help and medical help. So's that's really fast. And I

465
00:36:00,800 --> 00:36:04,199
guess one other before we go to
intermission? What other quick greats? You

466
00:36:04,199 --> 00:36:07,559
know you hear these great stories from
from Jeff. I mean he's he's in

467
00:36:07,599 --> 00:36:09,239
the heart of it. He was
six years old when all this stuff is

468
00:36:09,280 --> 00:36:14,679
going on. So you know how
in the Mothman Museum, uh uh,

469
00:36:15,159 --> 00:36:19,599
Andy and Brandy, there's the uh
there's display all kinds of displays, including

470
00:36:19,639 --> 00:36:22,079
the men in black. You know, you got the mannequins with the black

471
00:36:22,119 --> 00:36:27,000
suits, the Fedora's, the dark
sunglasses, and an explanation as to what

472
00:36:27,239 --> 00:36:30,840
was going on. So one day
Jeff's mom is in there and she's looking

473
00:36:30,880 --> 00:36:34,840
at the displaying. She says,
what is this? So Jeff explains to

474
00:36:34,880 --> 00:36:37,639
his mom, you know that,
Well, it's the men in black and

475
00:36:37,679 --> 00:36:39,719
blah blah blah. And she said, you know, we used to see

476
00:36:39,760 --> 00:36:44,599
them down in Point Pleasant. Oh
wow. And Jeff goes, mom,

477
00:36:45,039 --> 00:36:47,639
you know how long I've been into
this and you're you're just telling me this

478
00:36:47,760 --> 00:36:52,440
now? And he said, well, where were you seeing them? And

479
00:36:52,519 --> 00:37:01,559
she said Mary Hire's office. Oh
yeah, wow. Intermission time you are

480
00:37:01,639 --> 00:37:07,639
listening to The High Strangeress Factor copyrighted
on the Paranormal UK Radio Network. Today,

481
00:37:07,760 --> 00:37:13,760
Andy Brandy and I are are is
celebrating our fifth anniversary with Brian and

482
00:37:13,840 --> 00:37:20,679
Terry Seech researchers and investigators into the
unknown. And okay, now this is

483
00:37:21,079 --> 00:37:22,719
we won't spend a whole lot of
time on this, I don't think,

484
00:37:23,039 --> 00:37:30,320
but it's tradition. Brian, we
have to talk about the Mothman Prophecies film.

485
00:37:30,559 --> 00:37:38,760
He just ran into the restroom breaking
he took off. Well that's quite

486
00:37:38,760 --> 00:37:45,599
all right, Well we will ambush
him when he gets back. Yes,

487
00:37:45,639 --> 00:37:47,840
what I what I want to Well, the first question I'm going to ask

488
00:37:47,960 --> 00:37:52,760
him is we're gonna we will set
it up to remind people what we're talking

489
00:37:52,760 --> 00:37:55,360
about. But uh, what I
what I want to know is, don't

490
00:37:55,360 --> 00:37:59,280
tell me if you know that the
amount of time? But have you guys

491
00:37:59,320 --> 00:38:06,280
ever time the amount of seconds that
Brian is on screen? No, okay,

492
00:38:06,800 --> 00:38:09,159
that would be interesting. It would
be a the stopwatch would have to

493
00:38:09,159 --> 00:38:15,079
move very quickly, I think.
But nonetheless, oh wait, he's gonna

494
00:38:15,079 --> 00:38:19,639
he was gonna ask you someone and
it was like Glenn sol because you weren't

495
00:38:21,239 --> 00:38:27,039
That's all right, bathroom breaks are
perfectly acceptable on the high strangers fector so,

496
00:38:27,159 --> 00:38:30,559
Brian, what we're doing is we're
going to, uh, because it's

497
00:38:30,599 --> 00:38:32,639
tradition, We're going to at least
for a little bit, revisit the Mothman

498
00:38:32,719 --> 00:38:37,159
Prophecies movie. Okay, So now
that set this up for people. Uh.

499
00:38:37,199 --> 00:38:42,360
This this came out twenty years ago
now with Richard gear Laura Lenny,

500
00:38:42,760 --> 00:38:47,000
uh, Alan Bates, and it
was the film based on the uh Mothman

501
00:38:47,079 --> 00:38:52,079
Prophecies book by John Keel and UH, let me just tell a quick story

502
00:38:52,119 --> 00:38:57,239
here. Uh, I got to
speak to Richard HadAM. Richard Haddam was

503
00:38:57,239 --> 00:39:02,000
the screenwriter for The Mothman Prophecy.
Now, when I first saw the film

504
00:39:02,119 --> 00:39:06,320
in the theater, I was a
little disappointed. I thought I would have

505
00:39:06,320 --> 00:39:08,519
wanted more of the book to come
forth. But as I watched it more

506
00:39:08,519 --> 00:39:13,119
and more, I thought, well, you know what, they really did

507
00:39:13,320 --> 00:39:16,559
do a good job of bringing forth
some of the basic ideas. And that's

508
00:39:16,599 --> 00:39:23,039
exactly the way John Keel felt.
In Brent Rains his book John Keel,

509
00:39:23,079 --> 00:39:29,039
The Man, the Myths and the
Ongoing Mysteries, he talked to Sandra Martin.

510
00:39:29,119 --> 00:39:34,679
Sandra Martin was John Keel's literary agent, and John Keel talked to her

511
00:39:34,760 --> 00:39:39,159
the moment he read Richard had him
screenplay, he was so happy. He

512
00:39:39,280 --> 00:39:43,079
was laughing and he said, you
know, he said, look, they've

513
00:39:43,119 --> 00:39:45,320
updated it, and they've got me
married and so forth. But they finally

514
00:39:45,559 --> 00:39:51,079
that there's somebody that finally captured some
of the underlying ideas of the book.

515
00:39:51,119 --> 00:39:55,440
Apparently prior to that they were just
writing screenplays where they were turning Mothman into

516
00:39:55,480 --> 00:40:00,079
a monster. So the cool thing
was Richard had Adam did not know this,

517
00:40:00,599 --> 00:40:06,320
and I was able to tell him
that, how how wonderful John Keel

518
00:40:06,400 --> 00:40:09,079
thought his screenplay was right to his
face. So that was that was very

519
00:40:09,360 --> 00:40:14,280
cool, really cool. So uh
uh, and we talked a lot more

520
00:40:14,320 --> 00:40:15,960
about it. They gave him all
kinds of instructions. They didn't want the

521
00:40:16,079 --> 00:40:20,519
UFO thing played up, they wanted
the Mothman thing played up and so forth.

522
00:40:20,559 --> 00:40:24,360
But anyway, very interesting. Okay, so, uh, you're an

523
00:40:24,440 --> 00:40:29,440
extra in this film. But first
tell us how was it that you got

524
00:40:29,480 --> 00:40:31,760
a line on this? How did
you get involved in this? Uh?

525
00:40:32,360 --> 00:40:36,280
We're I think so we both saw
it in that I think it was in

526
00:40:36,320 --> 00:40:40,079
a newspaper, right so we we
both sent it. He found out Nancy

527
00:40:40,119 --> 00:40:49,199
moss or Casting Agency were taking applications
for extras and he wanted to put his

528
00:40:49,719 --> 00:40:53,079
application in and he made me do
mine too at the same time. And

529
00:40:53,239 --> 00:40:57,360
she actually could have been in the
which scene was on. I was called

530
00:40:57,400 --> 00:41:00,679
for the Christmas Christmas scene, but
she didn't want to gotten at the bridge,

531
00:41:00,800 --> 00:41:02,880
but it would have been I would
have gone by myself. And it

532
00:41:02,960 --> 00:41:07,440
was at night. You had to
report at ten pm and it was in

533
00:41:07,639 --> 00:41:13,079
containing. It was a little far
ride, right, Yeah, so I

534
00:41:13,119 --> 00:41:16,280
turned it down so we could have
we could have tried to pick you out

535
00:41:16,320 --> 00:41:22,079
in that crowd scene at night.
And also our friend, our friend Dwayne

536
00:41:22,119 --> 00:41:25,519
Pentoff was in it. Yes,
they showed him real quick in the scene

537
00:41:25,519 --> 00:41:30,519
also, but they part cut part
of his scene, right, Yes,

538
00:41:30,599 --> 00:41:31,719
he said that they cut part of
it. He was the sheriff, I

539
00:41:31,920 --> 00:41:35,960
believe or something like that, and
they cut that part. But I still

540
00:41:35,960 --> 00:41:38,880
think that he does have a quick
cameo and he doesn't. He shot me

541
00:41:39,079 --> 00:41:44,000
a screenshot of it and you could
just barely see he's like a it looks

542
00:41:44,000 --> 00:41:47,079
almost like a shadow person in the
background. Yeah, okay, but but

543
00:41:47,159 --> 00:41:52,480
heck you guys both have more time
in it than I do. So it

544
00:41:52,599 --> 00:41:55,519
was so cool. It was like
I told you, we took we went

545
00:41:55,599 --> 00:42:00,559
at night, okay, and we
that's probably the last, like maybe one

546
00:42:00,559 --> 00:42:02,239
other night movie because you know,
we're we're cheap. We can't afford to

547
00:42:02,239 --> 00:42:06,760
come in the night. So we
took my mom, my mom and my

548
00:42:06,840 --> 00:42:12,960
brother. And so we're sitting there
and the scene come up. I said,

549
00:42:12,119 --> 00:42:15,360
I go to my mom. I
said there I and then I was

550
00:42:15,400 --> 00:42:21,079
off. I couldn't even say there, I am there. I okay for

551
00:42:21,199 --> 00:42:29,800
people to DVD play it, pause
it at his scene just to see where

552
00:42:29,800 --> 00:42:31,320
he was, and I'm the guy
with the briefcase, and Steve is Steve

553
00:42:31,400 --> 00:42:37,360
really once that briefcase I have.
I have ripped on Brian about the briefcase

554
00:42:37,360 --> 00:42:39,360
and also here here's the other thing. But we're going to tell people where

555
00:42:39,360 --> 00:42:43,440
you were in the movie in just
a moment. But another thing is that

556
00:42:43,960 --> 00:42:46,880
on Saturday night at the at the
T and G Hey ride at the Mothman

557
00:42:47,119 --> 00:42:51,679
Festival where the men in black try
to turn you away and there's a guaranteed

558
00:42:51,719 --> 00:42:55,119
fly over the Mothman. Occasionally Brian
and Terry will be on there and one

559
00:42:55,119 --> 00:42:58,800
of the first things Brian says,
Hey, Steve, did you know I

560
00:42:58,840 --> 00:43:02,679
was in the Mothmand prophecy? And
that's my cue to just rip on Brian.

561
00:43:02,880 --> 00:43:07,079
I told people one time that he
went to the little commissary there.

562
00:43:07,079 --> 00:43:09,360
What all the food was? He
stuffed his briefcase full of food and they

563
00:43:09,360 --> 00:43:14,000
didn't have to buy groceries for two
weeks. Hey, I tell you what,

564
00:43:14,079 --> 00:43:15,079
see, they fed you pretty good. I will say that. I'll

565
00:43:15,079 --> 00:43:19,320
get well, that's cool. It
was. It's not like a great experience,

566
00:43:19,320 --> 00:43:22,079
but you have to set up for
people that if they haven't seen the

567
00:43:22,119 --> 00:43:25,480
movie, or if they have,
where do they find And by the way,

568
00:43:25,480 --> 00:43:30,920
I asked Harry, when you were
indisposed, did you ever time the

569
00:43:30,039 --> 00:43:35,440
number of seconds you're on the screen? Was it two or three seconds?

570
00:43:35,440 --> 00:43:37,800
It wasn't It wasn't that long at
all. Did we actually time it?

571
00:43:37,840 --> 00:43:39,559
I don't know. It might have
just been two or three seconds, but

572
00:43:40,559 --> 00:43:44,840
that's better than nothing. Yeah,
I mean it was because I remember,

573
00:43:44,840 --> 00:43:49,079
I mean I had the briefcase and
what I was wearing, and the other

574
00:43:49,159 --> 00:43:51,480
guy, you know, the other
guy with me, and it was funny.

575
00:43:51,480 --> 00:43:57,400
We were right before we did that
walk Richard Gear was in a trailer

576
00:43:57,480 --> 00:44:00,400
right next to us. So we're
looking in the window and he's sitting there

577
00:44:00,599 --> 00:44:04,159
and it was a cold, blustery
day too. It was I think we

578
00:44:04,199 --> 00:44:07,360
did it around the sometime in November, but it was it was very cold.

579
00:44:07,599 --> 00:44:10,159
And he's sitting there and they're blow
drying his hair and we're looking at

580
00:44:10,159 --> 00:44:13,000
each other. He goes, that's
what it must be to be a movie

581
00:44:13,039 --> 00:44:19,400
sign and then people people were looking
at us because like there's a trailer there

582
00:44:19,440 --> 00:44:22,880
was We're standing there, and then
they had like a line and then there

583
00:44:22,960 --> 00:44:25,800
was people watching from like behind the
thing. You couldn't obviously didn't see him

584
00:44:25,800 --> 00:44:29,920
in the thing, but they're looking
at us. And then you know,

585
00:44:29,920 --> 00:44:31,639
we're like, hey, maybe this
is what it is to be a movie

586
00:44:31,639 --> 00:44:35,800
star. They're looking at We're laughing, and we really it was fun.

587
00:44:36,719 --> 00:44:42,800
Anyone ever gets a chance to to
be in a big movie like that,

588
00:44:42,880 --> 00:44:45,920
now we I got you. I've
gotten the opportunity. The last four or

589
00:44:45,920 --> 00:44:51,400
five years, I've been in some
smaller did their movies, but they're independent.

590
00:44:52,079 --> 00:44:59,599
I've been in uh it's called Crossing
Pass one and two Flat Woods,

591
00:44:59,599 --> 00:45:02,320
which was a very loosely based on
the flat. I think you might have

592
00:45:02,400 --> 00:45:07,000
seen that one Steve Fred was in, and then another one Fred and I

593
00:45:07,039 --> 00:45:12,000
were in called It's a horror movie
Beasts of our Fathers about Bigfoot. And

594
00:45:12,440 --> 00:45:16,199
so I've I've gotten to be in
four other movies where I actually talk and

595
00:45:16,280 --> 00:45:21,079
you actually see me. So it's
it's a blast that if you got anyone

596
00:45:21,159 --> 00:45:23,480
gets a chance to do that,
just do it. I mean, I'm

597
00:45:23,519 --> 00:45:28,840
having a blast. And uh,
this last one we were I was a

598
00:45:28,920 --> 00:45:32,760
drug counselor drug counselor in Crossing Past
one and two, and in the second

599
00:45:32,760 --> 00:45:37,920
one, Terry got the sit in
and we did take after take of this

600
00:45:38,000 --> 00:45:42,679
one scene. And then to finally
see it, we just got the DVD

601
00:45:42,760 --> 00:45:46,039
about three weeks ago, and to
see it's like, yeah, I didn't

602
00:45:46,079 --> 00:45:49,880
do half a bad job, but
they made us take it over Terry and

603
00:45:50,000 --> 00:45:52,760
over, and she's like, you
don't even have that many lines. Just

604
00:45:52,760 --> 00:45:58,599
screw them up, so they what
you see? You know, it's interesting.

605
00:45:58,599 --> 00:46:00,920
It's funny too. The very first
one that I did, I did

606
00:46:01,000 --> 00:46:04,920
it on a basketball court with the
you know, with the same kid that

607
00:46:04,960 --> 00:46:07,679
I did in the second, and
we had no lines. They said,

608
00:46:07,679 --> 00:46:12,039
ad libit. It was all ad
libbed. There was not one you know,

609
00:46:13,440 --> 00:46:15,079
he said basically say this. You
know you could say something like this.

610
00:46:15,679 --> 00:46:22,079
And his name is James Ross.
He like at one point he yelled

611
00:46:22,119 --> 00:46:24,639
at me and he said why did
you leave me? Or you never called

612
00:46:24,639 --> 00:46:27,360
me or something? And I'm like, okay, I gotta think on my

613
00:46:27,360 --> 00:46:29,800
feet. I said, hey,
you know my phone's always there. I

614
00:46:29,880 --> 00:46:32,599
must not. I just did it
spontaneously and it, uh, it actually

615
00:46:32,639 --> 00:46:35,639
turned out pretty good. I mean, I was like, okay, Brian,

616
00:46:35,639 --> 00:46:39,599
you didn't make a total fool out
of yourself. So you're telling me

617
00:46:39,840 --> 00:46:44,039
that on the Mothmann prophecies you could. Guys did not have makeup people.

618
00:46:45,159 --> 00:46:46,840
We did not have they said,
I believe it or not. I was

619
00:46:46,840 --> 00:46:51,480
wearing a tiny suit though you can't
see him so far back there were you

620
00:46:51,519 --> 00:46:53,880
were? You wearing a trench coat? A trench coat? Yeah? Wow,

621
00:46:54,079 --> 00:46:59,320
trench coat, briefcase and and isn't
it true that they made you do

622
00:46:59,360 --> 00:47:04,159
it over again? Yeah? We
did it three or fourth times. The

623
00:47:04,159 --> 00:47:06,119
first time we walked too slow,
and the guys said, come on,

624
00:47:06,159 --> 00:47:07,239
come on, speed it up.
You got to walk Bastroom'm like, okay,

625
00:47:07,599 --> 00:47:09,079
well, I don't know. We
were walking wrong, you know,

626
00:47:10,880 --> 00:47:15,079
but it was fun. It was
It's so cool. I'm glad that you

627
00:47:15,119 --> 00:47:19,320
know, and you heard that.
The rumors is they want to make a

628
00:47:19,360 --> 00:47:22,920
second one, right, like,
is that is that a real rumor?

629
00:47:22,960 --> 00:47:24,000
Is that a Brian Steech rumor?
No? No, no, no,

630
00:47:24,000 --> 00:47:27,760
no, it was a rumor that
I said, I'm going to be the

631
00:47:27,760 --> 00:47:31,360
main focus of it. That's the
rumor. But no, they they had

632
00:47:31,400 --> 00:47:37,039
claimed that which is named Mark Pellington
had talked about we would like to make

633
00:47:37,159 --> 00:47:42,400
some kind of a sequel. It
would be great because if I always wanted

634
00:47:42,400 --> 00:47:45,559
them to, because they could develop
some of those ideas further. But exactly,

635
00:47:45,800 --> 00:47:49,960
but still we have to set up
for people that haven't seen this or

636
00:47:50,000 --> 00:47:52,599
have and don't have no idea where
you are and this set it up.

637
00:47:52,599 --> 00:47:58,639
Now when this scene is in,
was it a shot in Pittsbury yet it's

638
00:47:58,639 --> 00:48:01,679
heed you're learning, but it's it's
supposed to be a double for Chicago,

639
00:48:01,800 --> 00:48:06,519
right, yes, okayet set this
up for us. Tell us where to

640
00:48:06,519 --> 00:48:13,960
find Brian Siege in the epic Mothband
prophecies. So uh, Richard Gear and

641
00:48:15,360 --> 00:48:20,519
Alan Bates, it's the part they
they they're walking up the cathedral steps to

642
00:48:20,599 --> 00:48:23,400
go into the library for the next
scene. So as they're walking up,

643
00:48:24,239 --> 00:48:30,480
they walk up, and as they're
going into the the cathedral, myself and

644
00:48:30,519 --> 00:48:36,199
another gentleman are walking towards towards the
screen. I'm the one on the left

645
00:48:36,280 --> 00:48:39,280
with the with the briefcase. And
it's only literally it's like maybe two seconds.

646
00:48:39,280 --> 00:48:43,960
And we even had to stop on
posit posit go frame by frame and

647
00:48:44,039 --> 00:48:49,360
like there it is. But yeah, it was. It was a blast,

648
00:48:49,400 --> 00:48:52,079
and it was something that you know, if I ever get the opportunity,

649
00:48:52,119 --> 00:48:54,639
because it's you know, Nancy Moster
out of Pittsburgh. They do a

650
00:48:54,679 --> 00:49:00,239
lot of different movies, and there
was a they also did which and the

651
00:49:00,239 --> 00:49:05,880
one Batman where some of the Pittsburgh
Steelers were in it, and it was

652
00:49:05,920 --> 00:49:07,679
Batman with Bane and I forget what
the name of that was. And I

653
00:49:07,719 --> 00:49:12,079
wanted to go up there but for
that scene, but I just I never

654
00:49:12,400 --> 00:49:15,400
put in for it, you know
what I mean. Now, So when

655
00:49:15,440 --> 00:49:20,400
they when they showed this movie in
theaters, do you get residuals like maybe

656
00:49:20,519 --> 00:49:25,760
thirty eight cents? Yeah, no, I get nothing. We wish I

657
00:49:25,760 --> 00:49:30,280
don't get nothing for not one paycheck
for that day and that was Oh was

658
00:49:30,320 --> 00:49:32,480
it like eighty eight bucks or something
like that? Oh? Really yeah,

659
00:49:32,480 --> 00:49:35,599
I think it was like eighty eight
bucks. And I was there for what

660
00:49:35,719 --> 00:49:38,840
like seven hours and all the food
you can eat and I got, we

661
00:49:38,880 --> 00:49:43,639
got we got breakfast, and we
got a late lunch already dinner. Yeah.

662
00:49:45,440 --> 00:49:49,400
Yeah. They had a lunch truck
and he just had a lunch truck

663
00:49:49,400 --> 00:49:51,639
and they said, here's the extras
whatever they wanted to get. You know,

664
00:49:51,719 --> 00:49:54,719
it was cool, very good.
You know, those those scenes between

665
00:49:55,679 --> 00:50:01,599
Richard Gear and Alan Bates are just
super oh exactly exactly whether they're outside talking

666
00:50:01,920 --> 00:50:07,360
or whether they're inside in the supposed
to the library or his office. Those

667
00:50:07,519 --> 00:50:13,559
uh, those scenes, and and
the scene where Richard Gear is supposedly talking

668
00:50:13,599 --> 00:50:17,599
to this injured cold over the phone
are also exceptionally well done. Yep,

669
00:50:17,920 --> 00:50:22,159
it was it was cool. I
really would like to see some kind of

670
00:50:22,199 --> 00:50:25,440
a sequel, but this time maybe
focus on at least show the creature.

671
00:50:25,519 --> 00:50:30,679
I mean technically we did it.
When we got it. We actually slowed

672
00:50:30,679 --> 00:50:35,800
down the scene where what's your name
was driving and it came flying up right,

673
00:50:35,840 --> 00:50:37,920
so did I. And then you
actually see you see a little bit

674
00:50:37,920 --> 00:50:43,320
of the eyes and right, well, the one one idea he had Penllington

675
00:50:43,519 --> 00:50:46,320
was less is more. He didn't
want to overdo it, and to a

676
00:50:46,400 --> 00:50:51,679
degree, that's correct. He could
have had a little bit more. But

677
00:50:52,280 --> 00:50:55,519
it'd be interesting to see what they
could do with a sequel. And like

678
00:50:55,599 --> 00:51:00,000
I say, they could really,
uh, they could do really something pretty

679
00:51:00,079 --> 00:51:07,239
pretty special. Okay, Well,
I always I always love the Mothsman movie

680
00:51:07,239 --> 00:51:12,960
section when we get together. Very
cool. Uh, anything else about that

681
00:51:13,000 --> 00:51:17,239
you want to talk about that that
people should know about. Now you've seen

682
00:51:17,280 --> 00:51:21,880
the two scrap books I have of
that, right I showed you. Oh

683
00:51:21,960 --> 00:51:25,679
yeah, that's right. I actually
loan them to Rosemary and she actually,

684
00:51:25,840 --> 00:51:30,400
uh I think took some material off
for one of her books that she did

685
00:51:30,960 --> 00:51:35,679
and very good. Yeah, so
maybe that like whenever we whenever we're close

686
00:51:35,719 --> 00:51:37,760
to death or whatever, we'll send
it on the jets. He can put

687
00:51:37,800 --> 00:51:40,840
him in, but he can put
him in the library. We donate him

688
00:51:40,880 --> 00:51:45,639
to the museum. I have many
plans when I'm close to death as well,

689
00:51:45,960 --> 00:51:47,400
but I don't know, you know
how to how to determine that exactly?

690
00:51:47,639 --> 00:51:51,880
Well, you know, you you
know, as files always has more

691
00:51:51,960 --> 00:51:57,599
room for stuff. Yes, I
know, not really, but we we'll

692
00:51:57,599 --> 00:52:01,199
make you've seen up there, and
yes, well I don't have much from

693
00:52:01,199 --> 00:52:06,800
here either, and the books are
really stacking up. Mhm. So what

694
00:52:06,920 --> 00:52:08,559
do you get pressed? I was
impressed with your library, and we do.

695
00:52:09,039 --> 00:52:13,400
I told Terry we'd like to come
down sometimes and just like just hang

696
00:52:13,480 --> 00:52:16,559
with you and just look through yourself. Yeah. Yes, and I'm actually

697
00:52:16,880 --> 00:52:21,920
pardon me, I'm actually getting to
the point where people can move around the

698
00:52:21,960 --> 00:52:24,039
library a little bit better. So
I'm working. I'm working on that,

699
00:52:24,559 --> 00:52:29,559
and uh, I can't I can't
wait to have that, uh a little

700
00:52:29,559 --> 00:52:32,039
bit better organized. That would be
be really cool. Then I'll have an

701
00:52:32,119 --> 00:52:37,280
open house for paranormal investigators. We'll
be down there right. Where are your

702
00:52:37,280 --> 00:52:40,159
first guests? So where are you
guys going from here? What do you

703
00:52:40,159 --> 00:52:45,280
have any any big plans, any
goals or or what Now that you're you're

704
00:52:45,320 --> 00:52:47,800
pretty much settled in. Uh,
the s files is is squared away.

705
00:52:49,559 --> 00:52:54,000
Where any any any plans, big
plans, little plans. Well, we

706
00:52:54,079 --> 00:52:57,840
have a couple of cases that we're
going to follow up on here, like

707
00:52:57,960 --> 00:53:04,480
right right as the weather breaks one. Oh yeah, well, when we

708
00:53:04,559 --> 00:53:07,119
told you that we wrote articles for
the Hancock County Courier. We're going to

709
00:53:07,159 --> 00:53:12,239
put that in a book form with
Fred and try to get that out.

710
00:53:12,239 --> 00:53:16,360
This year we did twenty six between
me and him, with mostly him.

711
00:53:16,480 --> 00:53:20,960
I'm not going to lie. We're
going to put that in a book form

712
00:53:21,000 --> 00:53:22,719
and add to it. And then
after that is we're going to start our

713
00:53:22,719 --> 00:53:30,280
books down here. So as far
as that we we actually you actually have

714
00:53:30,320 --> 00:53:35,920
to type all that stuff up.
Okay, So but that's first, and

715
00:53:35,960 --> 00:53:39,800
then we have a couple of investigations. We have one really cool investigation that

716
00:53:39,840 --> 00:53:45,119
we're really looking forward to. We
found out about this. I'm trying to

717
00:53:45,159 --> 00:53:51,400
think when end of October. So
there was a gentleman along with four other

718
00:53:51,480 --> 00:53:55,400
of his his family eyewitnesses who they
saw They were around the campfire up in

719
00:53:55,840 --> 00:54:00,360
it's a place called a Parker up
in the Butler where you know Butler Conny

720
00:54:00,400 --> 00:54:05,440
Wheredan lives. And they were at
around the fire one night and they look

721
00:54:05,519 --> 00:54:08,159
over and they see this. They
said it looked like a werewolf. The

722
00:54:08,159 --> 00:54:13,199
guy said it looked like the werewolf
from Harry Potter when the one professor turns

723
00:54:13,239 --> 00:54:16,360
into a Now, I I did
not like Harry Potter. I was not

724
00:54:16,400 --> 00:54:19,760
a big fan of it, so
I don't even know which one it's in.

725
00:54:20,199 --> 00:54:23,000
I've got to watch. It is
in the third one. Okay.

726
00:54:24,079 --> 00:54:29,199
So they look at this thing and
it's crouched down by this they have this

727
00:54:29,280 --> 00:54:31,519
They had this rim like this big
bucket that they just threw corn and some

728
00:54:31,519 --> 00:54:37,360
stuff, and they said this thing
was like hunched over it. It grabbed

729
00:54:37,840 --> 00:54:39,760
the bucket, picked it up,
and it looked at him like, hey,

730
00:54:39,800 --> 00:54:43,239
you're looking at me, gave him
an attitude, and then it turned

731
00:54:43,280 --> 00:54:46,119
around and it walked with this bucket. And the next morning they found it.

732
00:54:46,199 --> 00:54:49,760
Most of the stuff was eating and
the bucket was a little bit hammered.

733
00:54:49,760 --> 00:54:53,679
You know. So there's like I
think four to five eyewitnesses who we

734
00:54:53,880 --> 00:54:57,880
hope to interview when we go up
there. Their campus closed now, so

735
00:54:57,920 --> 00:55:01,920
we hope in the spring to get
up there and this will be you know,

736
00:55:01,960 --> 00:55:05,920
we've had some you know, we've
done maybe fourteen or fifteen over the

737
00:55:06,000 --> 00:55:08,840
years, over the long years of
these dog man siting. This will be

738
00:55:08,840 --> 00:55:14,039
the first one we've had multiple eyewitnesses
to seeing one of these things. So

739
00:55:14,079 --> 00:55:17,159
we're we're gonna take up the crew
and have you know, interview as many

740
00:55:17,159 --> 00:55:21,360
people as they can get. That
actually saw that we're gonna have different people

741
00:55:21,400 --> 00:55:24,280
interview them and get some pictures and
see how far they were away from this

742
00:55:24,400 --> 00:55:30,079
thing and so that, and then
we have another one to do. This

743
00:55:30,159 --> 00:55:35,440
gentleman is seeing he's had some light
anomalies in Freedom Beaver Connie where we used

744
00:55:35,440 --> 00:55:39,599
to live, and he showed us
some really cool pictures. Now he has

745
00:55:39,639 --> 00:55:47,119
a a deer cam mounted close to
uh. They have a spring and I

746
00:55:47,199 --> 00:55:52,480
see there's running water spring and they're
getting some some weird, weird light anomalies.

747
00:55:52,480 --> 00:55:54,599
And I asked you if we can
come up here and take some readings

748
00:55:54,599 --> 00:56:00,559
and you know, take the EMF
and you know, take the electromagnet.

749
00:56:00,559 --> 00:56:05,920
What's that called the EMF meter,
and there's something else with it, a

750
00:56:07,079 --> 00:56:10,599
trifle meter. Sorry field, Okay, right, okay, So we intend

751
00:56:10,599 --> 00:56:15,719
to go up there on a Saturday
and get some picks and see if we

752
00:56:15,760 --> 00:56:20,760
can come up with any readings there. Those are the two two big ones,

753
00:56:20,840 --> 00:56:23,400
and we have maybe one or two
playing with Jamie and Jenny doing some

754
00:56:23,440 --> 00:56:28,920
frequencies. Along with Jamie Jenny Kings, who you really got to get on

755
00:56:28,960 --> 00:56:34,199
your show. They're awesome doing some
frequencies along with they do the c SETI

756
00:56:34,280 --> 00:56:43,159
protocol from uh his name, uh
Stephen Breer. Yes, so we we

757
00:56:43,199 --> 00:56:49,280
intend to maybe add the two together
and maybe do some other things. I'm

758
00:56:49,280 --> 00:56:52,679
still kind of figure out how I
want to incorporate three or four different things

759
00:56:52,679 --> 00:56:55,920
at the same time, especially being
by Shinango Lake, being right next to

760
00:56:55,960 --> 00:57:00,840
the lake. Water is a great
conductor and just to see what would happen

761
00:57:00,840 --> 00:57:04,280
out there. So we do.
We have a lot planned once, you

762
00:57:04,320 --> 00:57:08,000
know, about two months or whatever, we're going to start these Well,

763
00:57:08,000 --> 00:57:12,079
you know, I was involved with
one of a couple of the c SET

764
00:57:12,280 --> 00:57:19,440
protocols as well in Michigan with Sherildan
Carter, and I never really you know,

765
00:57:19,639 --> 00:57:22,079
I never really experienced much of anything. There might have been some strange

766
00:57:22,119 --> 00:57:27,000
light anomalies in the sky that I'm
am always looking in the wrong direction.

767
00:57:27,440 --> 00:57:31,000
But I heard a lot of interesting
stories about by people that have been involved

768
00:57:31,000 --> 00:57:35,719
in these groups, and so I
don't know if it's a matter of people

769
00:57:36,119 --> 00:57:39,639
getting together in the same state of
consciousness creating some of the stuff, or

770
00:57:39,639 --> 00:57:45,039
if they're actually really pulling in some
kind of other intelligence. But Andy knows

771
00:57:45,079 --> 00:57:49,119
this Cher was on the show once
before. She had her try field meter.

772
00:57:49,519 --> 00:57:52,280
And it's hard to describe this,
but we I had my my EMF

773
00:57:52,360 --> 00:57:57,920
meter. At one point it kind
of slowly crept up a lot higher than

774
00:57:57,920 --> 00:58:00,119
normal. And we're out in the
middle of every part ar kind of in

775
00:58:00,159 --> 00:58:04,599
a depression, out in the middle
of nowhere, well away from traffic and

776
00:58:04,599 --> 00:58:07,800
so forth. And she took a
photograph of the of the lens on the

777
00:58:07,840 --> 00:58:13,400
Trifield meter, and on it is
a like a like part of a hand,

778
00:58:13,519 --> 00:58:20,000
like a small hand. But the
way it's filmed is uh, it's

779
00:58:20,079 --> 00:58:22,639
kind of the wrong way and it's
small, and it's black and white,

780
00:58:23,280 --> 00:58:28,079
but it's kind of oh yeah,
it's just it's so bizarre. I mean

781
00:58:28,119 --> 00:58:31,920
it's it's a real, real image, real physical image. And we both,

782
00:58:32,199 --> 00:58:36,199
you know, we are our meters
were both registering something. Now I

783
00:58:36,199 --> 00:58:38,239
don't know what the hell this was, but it took place during one of

784
00:58:38,239 --> 00:58:46,119
these C city sessions. That's interesting. I'll live in Michigan. Yes,

785
00:58:46,239 --> 00:58:51,000
she's north of Detroit, one of
the suburbs there. We would love to

786
00:58:51,000 --> 00:58:53,440
get I would love to get her
down and and does she get presentations to

787
00:58:53,599 --> 00:58:58,039
I mean, oh yes, yes, I saw some of her presentations at

788
00:58:58,079 --> 00:59:01,519
the Michigan New Fund Group. Wow, that would be that could be a

789
00:59:01,599 --> 00:59:05,079
name. If Dan can't get anybody, I'd love to bring her down.

790
00:59:05,440 --> 00:59:08,000
And she's got she's got some great
books too. Yeah, I have the

791
00:59:08,000 --> 00:59:15,440
one about the the triangles or the
places what does she call it? Uh,

792
00:59:15,480 --> 00:59:19,199
the I forget but she used the
term, uh, yeah, I

793
00:59:19,320 --> 00:59:22,199
forget. Yeah. But if that's
the idea, that's a really good that's

794
00:59:22,239 --> 00:59:25,159
a really good book. And hey, Steve, real quick, just yeah,

795
00:59:25,199 --> 00:59:29,000
I want to plug this here too. Uh. I just got this

796
00:59:29,079 --> 00:59:31,400
book and maybe you have it already. It's called Winged Aliens from Margie k

797
00:59:32,719 --> 00:59:37,199
No I do not. Okay,
So I'm actually gonna be on her show

798
00:59:37,199 --> 00:59:39,760
on my birthday, and so I
wanted to do a little bit of reading.

799
00:59:39,800 --> 00:59:47,679
And although although she does limp you
know, uh lump like thunderbirds and

800
00:59:49,360 --> 00:59:52,840
sightings that look more like birds,
I'm just interested in the humanoids and there's

801
00:59:52,880 --> 00:59:55,239
a lot in here. It's a
really good book, Steve. It's if

802
00:59:55,239 --> 01:00:00,119
you get a shot to or you
know, I'll put the uh, I'll

803
01:00:00,119 --> 01:00:05,199
put the link on when I go
on it. Okay. Actually, actually

804
01:00:05,199 --> 01:00:07,639
on my birthday in about a month
back here, right, a month from

805
01:00:07,639 --> 01:00:12,199
today? Right? Yeah? And
shall we shall we ask how old you're

806
01:00:12,239 --> 01:00:16,280
going to be, Brian, you
don't really want those, okay, I

807
01:00:16,320 --> 01:00:22,039
won't ask. If you don't ask, just say I'm getting perisally close to

808
01:00:22,119 --> 01:00:25,639
the big six up. Oh yeah, I passed that a while ago.

809
01:00:28,239 --> 01:00:31,800
No big deal, No big deal. Well, listen, Andy, Brandy,

810
01:00:31,840 --> 01:00:37,039
anything I've missed. Any other avenues
you want to pursue. I'm kind

811
01:00:37,079 --> 01:00:44,840
of curious, do you too,
at this Bigfoot conference or Butler or anywhere

812
01:00:44,840 --> 01:00:51,320
else that you go, do you
actually lead tours with folks out into the

813
01:00:51,360 --> 01:00:57,400
field to do investigations out there or
is everything you do kind of just your

814
01:00:57,440 --> 01:01:06,440
own little group of researchers. No, we haven't done any leading anybody out

815
01:01:06,480 --> 01:01:10,119
into the woods. We only we
basically do our own core group. The

816
01:01:10,159 --> 01:01:15,400
Butler conference is at a place where
there's really nowhere that you you know,

817
01:01:15,519 --> 01:01:17,960
it's not near a wooded area or
anything. It's at a facility. It's

818
01:01:19,000 --> 01:01:23,079
called the Tangle Wood's a senior center, so it's a like a big hall

819
01:01:25,360 --> 01:01:31,480
like up from the downtown Butler and
the other places where we've done it at

820
01:01:31,559 --> 01:01:37,239
parks and stuff. We just did
camp outs and did the conference. We

821
01:01:37,360 --> 01:01:43,159
really haven't done anything. Well,
No, the one place we did while

822
01:01:43,159 --> 01:01:51,519
it was a Beaver Creek When we
did that, it was a Halloween presentation

823
01:01:51,719 --> 01:01:54,159
that we put on and they had
us just lead people through the woods a

824
01:01:54,239 --> 01:02:00,800
lantern tour. Yeah. Right,
it was campground, but it's like on

825
01:02:00,840 --> 01:02:02,480
the outskirts of the campground. Yeah, it was pretty fun. Yeah.

826
01:02:02,760 --> 01:02:09,599
There we talked about ghosts and bigfoots
and sightings that happened at the park there.

827
01:02:09,760 --> 01:02:13,599
And that was the actual night that
we actually heard the Ohio Howe,

828
01:02:13,679 --> 01:02:15,960
like about one hundred or two in
the morning. Yeah, coming from the

829
01:02:16,079 --> 01:02:22,039
Uh, I'm from the park,
I'm guessing right. Yeah. Did the

830
01:02:22,079 --> 01:02:24,559
whole group period or did just the
two of you hear it? There was

831
01:02:24,559 --> 01:02:27,920
four of us. It was me
and Brian and Dave and Carrie, and

832
01:02:27,960 --> 01:02:30,480
we were getting ready. It was
like close to two o'clock in the morning.

833
01:02:30,480 --> 01:02:32,440
We were getting ready to go to
bed. The rest of the camp

834
01:02:32,480 --> 01:02:38,119
was already, everything was quiet,
and we were the last Florida head to

835
01:02:38,159 --> 01:02:42,039
bed when we heard it, and
we just looked at each other and our

836
01:02:42,119 --> 01:02:45,760
draws jaws drop. We heard it
one time and we heard it maybe for

837
01:02:45,800 --> 01:02:51,320
what maybe eight to ten seconds.
And what's interesting about that when that happened.

838
01:02:52,519 --> 01:02:58,480
The next morning, we went up
and we pulled over above the village

839
01:02:58,840 --> 01:03:01,000
and this lady came, ass Hey, have you seen my dog? I

840
01:03:01,039 --> 01:03:05,840
said no. She explained that she
says, last night something happened and it

841
01:03:05,880 --> 01:03:08,760
broke free, something spooked her,
something spook the dogs out of its pen,

842
01:03:08,880 --> 01:03:13,239
and she says, it's never done
that before. And so we got

843
01:03:13,280 --> 01:03:15,000
the lady's name and stuff. So
once we got home, we waited about

844
01:03:15,000 --> 01:03:17,719
what I think three days afterwards.
When we called her up, the dog

845
01:03:17,800 --> 01:03:22,639
did come back home, so hey, you know, and that where her

846
01:03:22,679 --> 01:03:25,639
house was was right down from the
campground, so yeah, we heard it.

847
01:03:25,719 --> 01:03:28,360
They would have heard it. I
mean, the dog would have heard

848
01:03:28,360 --> 01:03:32,079
it even more because it was closer. So could that be, you know,

849
01:03:32,079 --> 01:03:35,239
could the dog have heard it and
spooked it and ran away? I

850
01:03:35,280 --> 01:03:37,320
don't know, but at least it
was a happy ending. The dog did

851
01:03:37,440 --> 01:03:43,440
come back. Were you too able
to go to kind of go to the

852
01:03:43,559 --> 01:03:46,840
area where you thought the sound was
coming from the next day to kind of

853
01:03:47,280 --> 01:03:52,679
look around and see if you could
find any tracks or any kind of evidence

854
01:03:52,840 --> 01:03:57,400
that something might have been in the
area or was it even hard to distinguish

855
01:03:57,440 --> 01:04:00,880
where it was really coming from.
We did go down into the area and

856
01:04:00,880 --> 01:04:06,519
the picnic the village and the picnic
area, but it was it was hard

857
01:04:06,599 --> 01:04:12,360
to distinguish. We were up on
a hill, so it was hard to

858
01:04:12,400 --> 01:04:15,599
figure out like which direction it came
from. And you know, down in

859
01:04:15,639 --> 01:04:18,039
that hall, you know the hollow
down there, it does echo and so

860
01:04:18,280 --> 01:04:23,679
but it did seem generally to be
coming from down there. Okay, but

861
01:04:23,760 --> 01:04:27,719
he didn't. You weren't able to
uncover any evidence or anything unfortunately. No.

862
01:04:28,400 --> 01:04:31,039
Wow. We we tried, but
we're not the greatest track finders,

863
01:04:31,079 --> 01:04:36,320
that's for sure. We do try
those deeps. We try. Just so

864
01:04:36,360 --> 01:04:42,079
you know, Andy is with us, but he's having technical difficulties and his

865
01:04:42,079 --> 01:04:45,199
his microphone isn't working. So he's
with us here more than in spirit.

866
01:04:45,280 --> 01:04:53,599
He's actually here, but technology is
failing again. M h that's that's that's

867
01:04:53,639 --> 01:04:59,119
a bummer. Yeah, yep,
Well you know guys, uh, it's

868
01:04:59,239 --> 01:05:02,519
it's always good to have you here. You guys make the shows really easy.

869
01:05:03,079 --> 01:05:10,320
And uh uh read any anything else
to close before we uh uh uh

870
01:05:11,159 --> 01:05:15,239
uh before we head out, Just
I would say, it's just another successful

871
01:05:15,320 --> 01:05:23,239
anniversary show. Well, thank you, let's see and you give it a

872
01:05:23,280 --> 01:05:25,880
shot. Go ahead and just blast
out and see if we can hear you.

873
01:05:27,000 --> 01:05:31,480
Hello, hello nothing? Oh yes, yes, you keep cutting out

874
01:05:31,519 --> 01:05:36,400
for some reason that the volume barders
goes to maximum and obviously no one's hearing

875
01:05:36,440 --> 01:05:40,559
me. So that's very strange.
I'm one a very old laptop. My

876
01:05:40,760 --> 01:05:45,599
computer has the main died yesterday.
I've been trying to get it working laughing

877
01:05:45,639 --> 01:05:47,039
then with no luck at all.
So the result of this old laptop,

878
01:05:47,079 --> 01:05:51,159
So what's causing the problem for me? But that's an interesting listening to you

879
01:05:51,280 --> 01:05:56,679
guys. I could enjoy it,
but then I didn't need to. It's

880
01:05:56,679 --> 01:06:01,760
been fascinating to see you guys talking. Well, it's thanks yeah, thanks

881
01:06:01,800 --> 01:06:04,280
for having us home. We appreciate
it. We we always look forward to

882
01:06:04,320 --> 01:06:08,480
talking to Steve and seeing him and
hopefully, like I said, Steve,

883
01:06:08,519 --> 01:06:12,480
the you can you know, the
invitations open, you could stay here for

884
01:06:12,559 --> 01:06:15,320
Butler. Well, that would be
great. I'm kind of planning on it,

885
01:06:15,440 --> 01:06:20,480
uh, unless I decide to get
this other knee fixed, but we

886
01:06:20,599 --> 01:06:26,360
might wait on that. Yeah,
do it afterwards. Good idea, good

887
01:06:26,360 --> 01:06:30,400
idea. So Uh, I guess, Andy, Brandy, I guess we'll

888
01:06:30,400 --> 01:06:34,039
go ahead and close it out.
Sure, Okay, Well, uh,

889
01:06:34,800 --> 01:06:40,440
Andy, it's been great doing this
this many years. Again. UH never

890
01:06:40,480 --> 01:06:44,559
would have guessed that that I would
have been able to stay the course this
