The walking Pole. 12 00:00:45.640 --> 00:00:48.240 Hi Steve, here's my story about what happened to me, 13 00:00:48.759 --> 00:00:52.240 my brother and partner. At the time. It was summer 14 00:00:52.280 --> 00:00:56.119 of nineteen eighty one, around five am and light outside. 15 00:00:56.320 --> 00:01:00.200 This happened in Port Talbot, South Wales, UK. We were 16 00:01:00.240 --> 00:01:02.439 in our lounge chatting and we looked out the window 17 00:01:02.479 --> 00:01:04.719 where there's a mountain with a white road going around 18 00:01:04.760 --> 00:01:08.359 the side of it. Suddenly we saw a thirty foot 19 00:01:08.560 --> 00:01:11.680 walking pole. It was walking up the side of the 20 00:01:11.719 --> 00:01:14.560 white road. And it had nothing holding it up. We 21 00:01:14.599 --> 00:01:17.439 could see the bottom of it. We watched it for 22 00:01:17.439 --> 00:01:20.799 about five minutes. It seemed to have a purpose, sort 23 00:01:20.799 --> 00:01:24.400 of striding up the side of the mountain. We were gobsmacked. 24 00:01:25.079 --> 00:01:27.680 My brother and I still both talk about it sometimes. 25 00:01:28.079 --> 00:01:32.079 We called it the Postman. We were fifteen at the time. 26 00:01:33.040 --> 00:01:35.480 Thank you for inviting me to share with you. Much 27 00:01:35.480 --> 00:01:44.799 appreciated love, Lisa Yahwie Encounters, Hello Stephen Bill. We love 28 00:01:44.920 --> 00:01:47.519 listening to your National Park mysteries so thought we would 29 00:01:47.599 --> 00:01:50.719 send in one of our encounters. We have attached some 30 00:01:50.719 --> 00:01:53.280 photos to show you the location and the vegetation in 31 00:01:53.319 --> 00:01:55.480 the area to give you a feel for where we were. 32 00:01:56.920 --> 00:01:59.239 Over the years, my wife Claire and I have watched 33 00:01:59.239 --> 00:02:02.879 programs in articles on Bigfoot and other cryptids, but never 34 00:02:02.920 --> 00:02:04.959 thought we would one day have a close encounter of 35 00:02:04.959 --> 00:02:09.280 our own. Australia has its own version of Bigfoot, known 36 00:02:09.319 --> 00:02:13.439 as the Yowi or hairy Man. It's shorter and stockier 37 00:02:13.439 --> 00:02:16.360 than Bigfoot, and witnesses say that its head sets bang 38 00:02:16.439 --> 00:02:19.240 right on its shoulders, giving the impression that it doesn't 39 00:02:19.280 --> 00:02:22.560 have any neck at all. It also has a flattened 40 00:02:22.560 --> 00:02:26.879 nose and a reputation for being quite aggressive. Our first 41 00:02:27.000 --> 00:02:30.319 encounter was brief. In early twenty ten, We stayed at 42 00:02:30.319 --> 00:02:33.120 the Clear Mountain Lodge on Clear Mountain, about twenty five 43 00:02:33.159 --> 00:02:37.000 miles northwest of Brisbane. The hotel is located right on 44 00:02:37.080 --> 00:02:39.800 top of the mountain, which is sparsely populated and covered 45 00:02:39.840 --> 00:02:43.520 in thick bushland. A bit further to the west is 46 00:02:43.560 --> 00:02:47.280 the massive diagui Lar State Forest, which stretches further inland 47 00:02:47.360 --> 00:02:50.199 and both to the north and to the south. Claire 48 00:02:50.240 --> 00:02:52.280 and I both loved getting out of the city together, 49 00:02:52.560 --> 00:02:55.319 especially away into the country to the peace and tranquility 50 00:02:55.360 --> 00:02:58.080 of nature. It was not so far from the city 51 00:02:58.120 --> 00:03:01.360 where we lived, but far way to enjoy being alone 52 00:03:01.400 --> 00:03:05.120 for some much needed us time. During the night, it 53 00:03:05.240 --> 00:03:08.360 rained heavily, and the next morning, after breakfast in the restaurant, 54 00:03:08.719 --> 00:03:12.199 we went out for a stroll around the decking. There 55 00:03:12.240 --> 00:03:14.639 was no one else in sight, and we considered ourselves 56 00:03:14.680 --> 00:03:18.240 fortunate to be the only ones outside enjoying the morning sunshine. Together, 57 00:03:19.639 --> 00:03:23.039 we gazed in wonder at the panoramic views. Bathed in 58 00:03:23.039 --> 00:03:25.879 the glorious, soft golden light of the fresh, clear morning. 59 00:03:26.960 --> 00:03:29.439 The wide brown decking was elevated high off the ground 60 00:03:29.520 --> 00:03:31.639 and it wrapped around the front and side the hotel. 61 00:03:32.319 --> 00:03:34.960 It was framed by a clear glass barrier and around 62 00:03:35.000 --> 00:03:36.879 the side of the building. The decking ram past the 63 00:03:36.960 --> 00:03:40.439 kitchens and then ramped downwards to ground level. At the 64 00:03:40.439 --> 00:03:42.879 bottom was the car parked to the right and dense 65 00:03:42.919 --> 00:03:47.960 bushland to the left. When we ambled around to the 66 00:03:48.000 --> 00:03:51.240 side of the building, I noticed strange muddy marks along 67 00:03:51.319 --> 00:03:53.360 one side of the ramp that ran from the bottom 68 00:03:53.439 --> 00:03:55.159 right up to where the kitchens were at the top, 69 00:03:55.599 --> 00:03:59.199 and then they just stopped. That's odd, I thought to myself, 70 00:03:59.240 --> 00:04:01.319 as I dropped Clar's hand to have a closer look 71 00:04:01.360 --> 00:04:05.759 at them. Then I realized they looked like giant footprints. 72 00:04:06.719 --> 00:04:10.680 I stared in disbelief emotion. Claire over and asked what 73 00:04:10.759 --> 00:04:13.759 she thought they were. She just gave me that perplexed 74 00:04:13.800 --> 00:04:17.439 look of what the We both started to shake our 75 00:04:17.439 --> 00:04:20.279 heads in disbelief, for each mark clearly had the shape 76 00:04:20.279 --> 00:04:23.720 of a huge footprint, with one large, big toe next 77 00:04:23.720 --> 00:04:28.319 to a row of smaller toes. Someone or something had 78 00:04:28.360 --> 00:04:31.319 walked along there with bare muddy feet early in the morning. 79 00:04:32.560 --> 00:04:35.480 I'm six feet tall and solidly built, and I put 80 00:04:35.480 --> 00:04:37.600 my foot next to the one, and it was clearly 81 00:04:37.680 --> 00:04:40.800 double the size of my foot. Glare and I stared 82 00:04:40.800 --> 00:04:44.120 at each other in amazement. We were both clearly wondering 83 00:04:44.160 --> 00:04:46.720 who or what would walk around in bare feet in 84 00:04:46.759 --> 00:04:51.040 the rain and mud and someone so big. Suddenly it 85 00:04:51.120 --> 00:04:55.920 dawned on me, it must be Awie. We both took 86 00:04:55.920 --> 00:04:59.879 a sharp breath inward and uttered an expletive. We followed 87 00:05:00.079 --> 00:05:02.120 muddy marks down to the bottom of the ramp and 88 00:05:02.240 --> 00:05:06.839 everyone looked the same. One giant footprint after another. It 89 00:05:06.920 --> 00:05:11.319 confirmed we weren't imagining the first one. Clearly, something bipedal 90 00:05:11.399 --> 00:05:14.120 had walked from out of the dense bushland up the 91 00:05:14.199 --> 00:05:16.680 ramp to the windows at the kitchens at the top. 92 00:05:17.600 --> 00:05:19.759 It looked like it had been standing outside the window 93 00:05:19.800 --> 00:05:22.519 and shuffling around for a while. As there were lots 94 00:05:22.560 --> 00:05:26.879 of footprints close together and overlapping. It was eerie to 95 00:05:26.920 --> 00:05:30.079 note that the footprints didn't go anywhere, though, they just 96 00:05:30.199 --> 00:05:34.120 seemed to stop. When we got home, we researched Yawi 97 00:05:34.240 --> 00:05:36.319 sidings and discovered that there had been a lot of 98 00:05:36.360 --> 00:05:39.319 them in and around that area, which just added to 99 00:05:39.319 --> 00:05:44.800 its credibility. Claire and I also loved the Hitterland area 100 00:05:44.839 --> 00:05:47.879 of the Gold Coast and the national parks in that area. 101 00:05:48.480 --> 00:05:50.879 The Springbrook National Park is the first of a stirring 102 00:05:50.920 --> 00:05:53.519 of huge national parks that stretch over one hundred miles 103 00:05:53.560 --> 00:05:56.399 inland and over eight hundred miles to the south around 104 00:05:56.399 --> 00:05:59.959 Springbrook and far to the west into the Lamington National Park. 105 00:06:00.439 --> 00:06:03.240 The terrain is often steep and rugged, with deep gorges 106 00:06:03.279 --> 00:06:06.439 and dense bush land, much of it more like rainforest 107 00:06:06.480 --> 00:06:11.560 with thick tropical undergrowth. We loved to go and have 108 00:06:11.639 --> 00:06:14.759 overnight stays in different places, and one weekend we stayed 109 00:06:14.879 --> 00:06:18.720 a place called the Lyre Bird Retreat. It was set 110 00:06:18.759 --> 00:06:21.600 on private land with four cabins scattered amongst the thick 111 00:06:21.639 --> 00:06:26.160 bracket and lush, ferny rainforest. The cabins were all erected 112 00:06:26.199 --> 00:06:28.480 along a single track to wound its way deep into 113 00:06:28.519 --> 00:06:31.639 the undergrowth, yet they were spaced out far enough apart 114 00:06:31.680 --> 00:06:33.879 that you couldn't see the next cabin along at all. 115 00:06:35.480 --> 00:06:37.839 It was so remote that there wasn't even a mobile 116 00:06:37.879 --> 00:06:40.920 phone signal there, and the only other dwelling was the 117 00:06:40.920 --> 00:06:43.839 owner's house, which was much back at the main entrance 118 00:06:43.839 --> 00:06:47.160 from the access road. The cabins were at ground level 119 00:06:47.160 --> 00:06:49.879 at the front, where there was also a space to park. 120 00:06:50.399 --> 00:06:52.360 At the back was wooden decking with a table and 121 00:06:52.439 --> 00:06:56.199 chairs and a barbecue as a landsloped. The deck at 122 00:06:56.240 --> 00:06:58.519 the back was about three to four feet off the ground, 123 00:06:58.800 --> 00:07:00.839 and the vegetation came right up to the back and 124 00:07:00.920 --> 00:07:04.879 sides of the buildings. We've included a few photos soon 125 00:07:04.920 --> 00:07:08.680 and get a feel for the location and area. Later 126 00:07:08.720 --> 00:07:11.480 in the year, we decided to get married, inviting just 127 00:07:11.519 --> 00:07:14.560 our grown up children, their partners, and a few close friends. 128 00:07:15.000 --> 00:07:16.680 We thought it would be a great idea to hire 129 00:07:16.680 --> 00:07:19.279 all four cabins for the weekend and actually get married 130 00:07:19.360 --> 00:07:22.040 right there in the rainforest, so that's what we did. 131 00:07:23.759 --> 00:07:26.560 Our biggest worry was the many venomous snakes the owners 132 00:07:26.560 --> 00:07:28.680 had warned us about, but it turned out it was 133 00:07:28.720 --> 00:07:32.079 the leeches which gave us the most grief. Everyone had 134 00:07:32.199 --> 00:07:34.439 one on them at some point, which gives you an 135 00:07:34.439 --> 00:07:38.399 indication of how dense the vegetation was. Everyone came and 136 00:07:38.399 --> 00:07:40.319 stayed a couple of nights, and we were married on 137 00:07:40.360 --> 00:07:44.319 the back decking. With the weekend over, everyone eventually left, 138 00:07:44.319 --> 00:07:47.160 except for Claire's best friend Carrie and her partner Joe, 139 00:07:47.319 --> 00:07:51.319 who stayed on an extra night with us. After our 140 00:07:51.319 --> 00:07:53.839 first trip there, we discovered it was actually a hot 141 00:07:53.879 --> 00:07:57.079 spot for Gali and in fact, to our surprise, it 142 00:07:57.120 --> 00:08:00.920 was actually the number one hot spot in Australia. There 143 00:08:00.920 --> 00:08:04.079 were so many stories of Yaowi encounters in the area. 144 00:08:05.160 --> 00:08:07.519 Many people who lived in the local town of Springbrook 145 00:08:07.639 --> 00:08:10.720 or had visited seemed to have Yaoi stories, with warnings 146 00:08:10.759 --> 00:08:13.680 to visitors to be wary of going into the dense undergrowth, 147 00:08:13.920 --> 00:08:19.040 especially at night. Builders working on houses there and heard loud, 148 00:08:19.079 --> 00:08:23.040 blood curdling roars emanating from the surrounding bushland and had 149 00:08:23.120 --> 00:08:25.439 hurriedly finished their works. They didn't have to go back 150 00:08:25.480 --> 00:08:30.040 into that area again. It was just the four of 151 00:08:30.120 --> 00:08:32.720 us left there now, and Joe and Cary came around 152 00:08:32.720 --> 00:08:36.919 to our cabin for barbecue and drinks. Joe was Aboriginal 153 00:08:37.039 --> 00:08:40.240 and a very intelligent guy. He worked as a lecturer 154 00:08:40.240 --> 00:08:43.559 in Aboriginal studies for a university and had traveled the 155 00:08:43.559 --> 00:08:46.840 world extensively to places like Machu Picchu and had even 156 00:08:46.919 --> 00:08:50.399 been inside the Giza Pyramids. He was also an elder 157 00:08:50.440 --> 00:08:53.360 for his tribe and deeply involved with the Aboriginal culture, 158 00:08:53.720 --> 00:08:55.399 so I thought he would be a great person to 159 00:08:55.440 --> 00:08:59.480 ask about Yaoi's. I tentatively ask him if he thought 160 00:08:59.519 --> 00:09:03.200 Yaoi's It really existed, and he just calmly said, yes, 161 00:09:03.480 --> 00:09:07.960 they do, without any doubt. He told me how his 162 00:09:08.039 --> 00:09:10.960 granddad had seen them many times, and how when he 163 00:09:11.000 --> 00:09:13.039 was young he used to tell him stories about the 164 00:09:13.080 --> 00:09:15.799 hairy men. He told me how he had seen them 165 00:09:15.879 --> 00:09:18.679 himself when he was young, so he knew they really existed. 166 00:09:19.799 --> 00:09:22.960 He said that all Aborigines know they're real, and it's 167 00:09:23.039 --> 00:09:26.320 just Western culture who find it hard to believe. He 168 00:09:26.360 --> 00:09:28.039 explained that they live in the higher parts of the 169 00:09:28.039 --> 00:09:30.960 mountains or it's in the hospitable and they are left alone. 170 00:09:32.120 --> 00:09:34.480 He told me it was ironic how many Aboriginals were 171 00:09:34.480 --> 00:09:37.080 accusing the white people of stealing their lands from them, 172 00:09:37.200 --> 00:09:40.960 because originally it hadn't been their land at all. He said, 173 00:09:40.960 --> 00:09:43.480 it's written in their folklore of how when the Aboriginals 174 00:09:43.519 --> 00:09:46.440 first arrived in Australia tens of thousands of years ago, 175 00:09:47.000 --> 00:09:51.200 it was already occupied by the hairy men. The Aborigines 176 00:09:51.240 --> 00:09:53.759 had fought with them, and because the Aborigines were smarter, 177 00:09:54.080 --> 00:09:56.720 the hairy men eventually were forced to retreat to the hills, 178 00:09:57.000 --> 00:10:01.799 leaving the nice coastal areas to the new arrivals. I 179 00:10:01.799 --> 00:10:04.320 asked how the Aborigines can claim they had their land 180 00:10:04.320 --> 00:10:06.799 taken from them by the white men they themselves had 181 00:10:06.799 --> 00:10:09.879 originally taken it off the Harrymen. He just laughed and 182 00:10:09.919 --> 00:10:12.840 said they know very well, but were just taking advantage 183 00:10:12.879 --> 00:10:15.200 of white people not having the courage to believe something 184 00:10:15.279 --> 00:10:19.399 like the yow It could actually be real. We talked 185 00:10:19.440 --> 00:10:21.240 about it for a while, and he mentioned that where 186 00:10:21.240 --> 00:10:23.200 we were staying is just the sort of area they 187 00:10:23.200 --> 00:10:27.480 live in. Kay said, tell them about last night, and 188 00:10:27.559 --> 00:10:29.759 he told us how late the night before he had 189 00:10:29.799 --> 00:10:32.639 since there was something outside their cabin in the undergrowth. 190 00:10:33.320 --> 00:10:35.840 He had that indigenous sixth sense so many of us 191 00:10:35.919 --> 00:10:38.720 don't pay attention to, and was in tune with the land. 192 00:10:40.120 --> 00:10:43.080 It stood in their cabin silently in the dark for ages, 193 00:10:43.559 --> 00:10:46.159 watching out the window, knowing there was something out there 194 00:10:46.320 --> 00:10:50.279 watching back. At one point he had actually seen something 195 00:10:50.320 --> 00:10:53.840 bipedal moving through the undergrowth and also saw the silhouette 196 00:10:53.879 --> 00:10:56.480 of it in a small clearing. He said, there was 197 00:10:56.519 --> 00:11:01.240 definitely a Yao around there. Joe and Carry left the 198 00:11:01.279 --> 00:11:03.440 next day and we had a couple more days there 199 00:11:03.440 --> 00:11:06.279 on our own on our final night, we thought we 200 00:11:06.360 --> 00:11:08.960 might as well have the barbecue one last time for dinner. 201 00:11:09.639 --> 00:11:12.240 It was dark and lightly raining outside, so we decided 202 00:11:12.279 --> 00:11:15.240 to cook out there but eat inside. I turned the 203 00:11:15.320 --> 00:11:17.159 lights on and went out onto the day to get 204 00:11:17.200 --> 00:11:19.200 the back and fired the barbecue up to cook on. 205 00:11:20.480 --> 00:11:24.799 I had that distinct feeling of being watched. Claire and 206 00:11:24.840 --> 00:11:28.000 I are very sensitive and had many unusual experiences, so 207 00:11:28.080 --> 00:11:30.519 we listened to those senses, and they were usually right. 208 00:11:32.080 --> 00:11:35.320 I would agree in science, and so I'm also very analytical. 209 00:11:35.480 --> 00:11:39.200 It's my profession, and I don't easily jump to wild conclusions. 210 00:11:39.559 --> 00:11:42.519 The reinforcet had been alive with sounds all weekend, but 211 00:11:42.600 --> 00:11:46.960 I noticed it was now eerily silent when the barbecue 212 00:11:47.000 --> 00:11:48.759 heat it up. I went back out to put the 213 00:11:48.799 --> 00:11:51.840 food on it. As I was placing the sausages on 214 00:11:51.879 --> 00:11:54.399 the grill, I heard a big crack as a twig 215 00:11:54.440 --> 00:11:59.480 snap not far away. It wasn't a lightweight twig, it 216 00:11:59.519 --> 00:12:04.720 was piercing snap from a reasonably thick twig. I stood there, 217 00:12:04.759 --> 00:12:07.879 motionless and silent for a while, peering into the darkness 218 00:12:07.879 --> 00:12:11.480 and listening. I couldn't hear anything moving at all, as 219 00:12:11.519 --> 00:12:14.360 you would expect if it was an animal, there a 220 00:12:14.480 --> 00:12:16.840 reason to make a crack like that would require a 221 00:12:16.919 --> 00:12:19.759 reasonable amount of weight, so I was surprised. I didn't 222 00:12:19.759 --> 00:12:22.360 hear whatever it was moving around, or the rustling of 223 00:12:22.480 --> 00:12:25.799 leaves that say, maybe a python might make slithering around 224 00:12:25.799 --> 00:12:29.279 in the scrub. A few minutes later, there was another 225 00:12:29.399 --> 00:12:33.720 distinct crack a few yards further over. Again I looked 226 00:12:33.759 --> 00:12:36.960 and listened into the undergrowth, but it was silent. I 227 00:12:37.000 --> 00:12:41.639 went inside. I later came back out to check how 228 00:12:41.679 --> 00:12:44.440 things were cooking. The smell of meat cooking was now 229 00:12:44.480 --> 00:12:47.679 wafting into the surrounding undergrowth, and again I felt like 230 00:12:47.799 --> 00:12:51.440 something was watching me, this time even stronger than before. 231 00:12:52.440 --> 00:12:57.320 Other than the lightly falling rain, it was silent, then cracked, 232 00:12:57.960 --> 00:13:00.360 fall by maybe two or three more cracks, close to together, 233 00:13:00.919 --> 00:13:05.240 each slowly getting closer, and then silence again. There was 234 00:13:05.279 --> 00:13:09.399 something moving around. I didn't feel good being out there anymore. 235 00:13:10.279 --> 00:13:12.000 I went back in and told Claire I was hearing 236 00:13:12.000 --> 00:13:14.960 strange noises outside and thought there was something out there, 237 00:13:15.399 --> 00:13:17.799 but also that it was probably just me because I 238 00:13:17.799 --> 00:13:20.799 didn't want to scare so understandably, she didn't really pay 239 00:13:20.879 --> 00:13:24.600 much attention to it. I went back out for the 240 00:13:24.639 --> 00:13:28.440 final time. Straight away I heard something moving in the bushes. 241 00:13:29.000 --> 00:13:31.440 This time it was really close, not more than twenty 242 00:13:31.440 --> 00:13:35.399 to twenty five yards away. I froze and stared intently 243 00:13:35.480 --> 00:13:39.200 and listened. I could actually hear it stepping through the undergrowth. 244 00:13:40.000 --> 00:13:43.039 I could hear each individual step, the sound of one 245 00:13:43.080 --> 00:13:46.000 leg slowly pushing through the undergrowth, and then the crack 246 00:13:46.039 --> 00:13:48.840 of a twig fall by the same again with the other, 247 00:13:49.200 --> 00:13:52.399 and then a pause. I hadn't been drinking, and I 248 00:13:52.399 --> 00:13:57.399 know I wasn't imagining it. It was definitely bipedal. It 249 00:13:57.519 --> 00:14:00.120 wasn't any sort of four legged animal or python on. 250 00:14:00.720 --> 00:14:02.600 It had to be either a human or a ylley. 251 00:14:04.240 --> 00:14:07.279 Either way, creeping around in the dark undergrowth on private 252 00:14:07.320 --> 00:14:10.519 property at night, in the middle of nowhere and stalking 253 00:14:10.519 --> 00:14:15.320 our cabin wasn't good. More twigs were cracking, and I 254 00:14:15.320 --> 00:14:18.919 could hear the rustle but pushing through the vegetation. I 255 00:14:19.159 --> 00:14:23.200 was terrified. I was ready expecting it to appear at 256 00:14:23.200 --> 00:14:26.120 any second. The deck was only three four feet off 257 00:14:26.120 --> 00:14:27.559 the ground, and by the time I would be able 258 00:14:27.600 --> 00:14:29.440 to see it, it could be stepping over the railing 259 00:14:29.519 --> 00:14:33.799 onto the deck. It was now taking four to five steps, 260 00:14:33.960 --> 00:14:37.080 then stopping completely for about a minute. Then it would 261 00:14:37.120 --> 00:14:40.480 start moving again. Each time it seemed to be slowly 262 00:14:40.559 --> 00:14:44.000 inching its way closer. I grabbed the food from the 263 00:14:44.000 --> 00:14:48.240 barbecue as quickly as I could. It started moving again 264 00:14:48.600 --> 00:14:50.879 and seemed to have stopped caring if it was being 265 00:14:50.960 --> 00:14:54.120 heard now and was taking about six to eight quick 266 00:14:54.120 --> 00:14:58.120 steps at a time. I turned around, peering into the darkness, 267 00:14:58.159 --> 00:15:01.279 trying to see it, but couldn't. I knew exactly where 268 00:15:01.279 --> 00:15:03.200 it was, I just couldn't see it because it was 269 00:15:03.240 --> 00:15:06.279 pitch black and the vegetation was too thick to see through. 270 00:15:07.120 --> 00:15:09.799 It was moving more across now rather than towards me. 271 00:15:10.799 --> 00:15:12.840 I could hear it moving to the right, as if 272 00:15:12.879 --> 00:15:15.240 it was circling around our cabin. It didn't want to 273 00:15:15.240 --> 00:15:19.039 come any closer. I turned the barbecue off and went 274 00:15:19.080 --> 00:15:21.960 inside and quickly locked the door, pretending it would make 275 00:15:21.960 --> 00:15:25.360 me feel safer. As I turned around to tell Claire 276 00:15:25.399 --> 00:15:28.159 what had happened, the sensor light suddenly went off out 277 00:15:28.159 --> 00:15:29.559 on the front of the cabin and lit up the 278 00:15:29.679 --> 00:15:33.720 entire front area where the car was parked. Claire jumped 279 00:15:33.759 --> 00:15:35.519 up and said there was someone out there and that 280 00:15:35.600 --> 00:15:39.159 they had sent the censer off. Remember I hadn't told 281 00:15:39.200 --> 00:15:40.960 her yet what I had just heard out the back. 282 00:15:41.879 --> 00:15:43.919 We couldn't see what it was, and we weren't game 283 00:15:44.000 --> 00:15:47.360 to go out and look. We turned the inside lights 284 00:15:47.360 --> 00:15:51.080 off and peered out. As I started to tell her 285 00:15:51.120 --> 00:15:53.679 what had happened out the back, the sensor light tripped 286 00:15:53.679 --> 00:15:56.440 and clicked back on a number of times, so it 287 00:15:56.480 --> 00:15:58.960 was still around out the front, setting off the sensor, 288 00:15:59.200 --> 00:16:02.759 but just keeping out of the light. Eventually it stayed 289 00:16:02.759 --> 00:16:06.639 off and we finally sat down to eat. Uneasily. I 290 00:16:06.679 --> 00:16:08.759 told Claire about what I'd heard the final time I 291 00:16:08.799 --> 00:16:11.559 had gone out the back and the earlier times, and 292 00:16:11.600 --> 00:16:14.240 how there was definitely something on two feet moving through 293 00:16:14.279 --> 00:16:18.240 the undergrowth. We spent a nervy night wondering if whatever 294 00:16:18.279 --> 00:16:21.600 it was was still around or would return. Our bed 295 00:16:21.720 --> 00:16:24.120 was right by the main sliding door, which had Florida 296 00:16:24.120 --> 00:16:27.159 ceiling glass, and the bathroom had a Florida ceiling glass 297 00:16:27.200 --> 00:16:30.279 wall looking right into the undergrowth, with no blinder curtain 298 00:16:30.320 --> 00:16:33.919 to shut any stalking eyes out. Every time we looked 299 00:16:33.960 --> 00:16:36.440 up from the bed or went to the toilet, we 300 00:16:36.559 --> 00:16:40.759 half expected to see something standing outside looking in A 301 00:16:40.799 --> 00:16:43.320 couple of nights earlier, Claire had said she thought she'd 302 00:16:43.360 --> 00:16:45.840 seen two red eyes outside the bathroom in the middle 303 00:16:45.840 --> 00:16:48.559 of the night, but we dismissed it at the time. 304 00:16:49.559 --> 00:16:51.559 The owners told us that the other three cabins were 305 00:16:51.600 --> 00:16:54.600 unoccupied that night, so we knew we were there on 306 00:16:54.639 --> 00:16:58.320 our own. It gave us both the creeps, just thinking 307 00:16:58.360 --> 00:17:02.080 that there was something lurking around outside in the undergrowth 308 00:17:02.480 --> 00:17:06.359 in the dark. The next morning, in the daylight, we 309 00:17:06.400 --> 00:17:08.319 went around to the back of the cabin and down 310 00:17:08.359 --> 00:17:10.519 to roughly where the noises had been coming from to 311 00:17:10.519 --> 00:17:13.680 see if we could see anything. One strange thing we 312 00:17:13.759 --> 00:17:16.880 found were branches which had clearly been snapped off trees 313 00:17:17.079 --> 00:17:19.519 laid out in uniform patterns on the ground in a 314 00:17:19.559 --> 00:17:23.920 way that could not happen naturally. We knew about Yowie's 315 00:17:23.960 --> 00:17:26.480 and that Springbrook is the number one hotspot for them, 316 00:17:26.880 --> 00:17:29.880 but we never imagined that we might encounter one there too. 317 00:17:30.680 --> 00:17:32.839 Yet we both came to accept that we must have. 318 00:17:33.759 --> 00:17:36.039 We know that feeling now, and whenever we hear of 319 00:17:36.119 --> 00:17:39.480 others having strange encounters or that feeling of being stalked, 320 00:17:40.160 --> 00:17:43.160 those cold, prickly goosebumps come crawling back all over our 321 00:17:43.200 --> 00:17:46.119 bodies again, just like an old friend telling us to 322 00:17:46.160 --> 00:17:52.160 trust their gut feeling and run. Signed Mark and Claire. 323 00:17:54.880 --> 00:17:59.200 My encounter with a dark being. My encounter was what 324 00:17:59.240 --> 00:18:01.920 I suppose that people were referring to as a shadow man, 325 00:18:02.640 --> 00:18:05.279 was when I was about twenty one years old. Although 326 00:18:05.319 --> 00:18:07.839 to me it just seemed like a huge dark mass 327 00:18:07.839 --> 00:18:11.000 without the defining features of legs or arms. Although it 328 00:18:11.039 --> 00:18:14.519 did stand upright now as I think about it, it 329 00:18:14.599 --> 00:18:16.880 seemed almost as if it was robed with a hood 330 00:18:16.920 --> 00:18:20.039 on its head. At that time, i'd moved back in 331 00:18:20.119 --> 00:18:21.960 with my parents after a time of living out of 332 00:18:21.960 --> 00:18:25.599 town working with some buddies. I turned a utility building 333 00:18:25.599 --> 00:18:28.599 on my parents' property into my bedroom, and a friend 334 00:18:28.640 --> 00:18:30.519 of the family had come by for a visit. While 335 00:18:30.519 --> 00:18:33.920 I was going to work one day, she decided she 336 00:18:33.960 --> 00:18:36.279 would go out and cleanse my bedroom of any negative 337 00:18:36.359 --> 00:18:40.000 or evil spirits. When I got home, my mom told 338 00:18:40.000 --> 00:18:42.920 me what her friend had done. Well. I was grateful, 339 00:18:42.960 --> 00:18:46.160 because back then, speaking of cleansing a home most common knowledge. 340 00:18:47.119 --> 00:18:49.160 But up to this time, though, I had not had 341 00:18:49.200 --> 00:18:52.200 any negative vibes inside my bedroom. But if our friend 342 00:18:52.240 --> 00:18:54.319 wanted to make sure that my room was clear, of evil. 343 00:18:54.480 --> 00:18:58.039 That was fine with me. Well that night, after I 344 00:18:58.119 --> 00:19:01.200 turned in for bed lights out and the only light 345 00:19:01.240 --> 00:19:04.039 coming into my room was through the windows, I looked 346 00:19:04.119 --> 00:19:07.000 up to suddenly see a dark figure standing by my bed. 347 00:19:07.839 --> 00:19:10.720 It was standing only about six inches away from my bedside. 348 00:19:11.759 --> 00:19:14.519 It was about six feet tall, with a pointed shaped head, 349 00:19:14.680 --> 00:19:16.960 possibly as if it were wearing a hood over its head, 350 00:19:17.400 --> 00:19:19.799 and it was darker than the darkness in my room. 351 00:19:20.920 --> 00:19:23.839 Wasting no time and drawing heavily upon my religious teachings 352 00:19:23.839 --> 00:19:26.960 and beliefs, I began rebuking this ghastly being in the 353 00:19:27.000 --> 00:19:30.319 name of Jesus, while simultaneously turning the bedside lamp on, 354 00:19:30.839 --> 00:19:36.000 and immediately it vanished from my room instead of cleansing 355 00:19:36.039 --> 00:19:39.799 my room of evil spirits, to my shocking surprise, undoubtedly 356 00:19:39.920 --> 00:19:42.640 my friend had actually dropped off an evil spirit into 357 00:19:42.680 --> 00:19:46.880 my room. This didn't surprise me because it was allegedly 358 00:19:46.920 --> 00:19:50.119 believed by some folks that our friend practiced witchcraft from 359 00:19:50.119 --> 00:19:54.599 time to time, although she was a professing Christian. I 360 00:19:54.640 --> 00:19:57.000 can't say that our friend meant any wrongdoing when she 361 00:19:57.039 --> 00:19:59.640 decided to clean my room that day, and I'd always 362 00:19:59.640 --> 00:20:02.599 consider here's a person to look to for spiritual guidance. 363 00:20:03.559 --> 00:20:06.960 But I wonder if the line between Esotericism and Christianity 364 00:20:07.039 --> 00:20:09.920 became a blur for her at times, or maybe she 365 00:20:10.119 --> 00:20:12.319 just moved from one to the other once she desired 366 00:20:12.319 --> 00:20:15.079 to do so. I guess the good moral of the 367 00:20:15.119 --> 00:20:18.359 story is be sure and know the person who's cleansing 368 00:20:18.400 --> 00:20:21.559 your house of evil spirits. They have to really have 369 00:20:21.640 --> 00:20:23.920 power with the Most High God in order to cleanse 370 00:20:23.960 --> 00:20:28.000 your house. Well, I hope you enjoyed this story. Thank 371 00:20:28.039 --> 00:20:36.119 you for sharing Clifton, California glimmer Man encounter. Hi. I 372 00:20:36.160 --> 00:20:38.039 want to share my own story and hope to bring 373 00:20:38.079 --> 00:20:41.880 more awareness to the topic. English is my second language, 374 00:20:41.880 --> 00:20:45.359 so please excuse me if my storytelling isn't good. I 375 00:20:45.400 --> 00:20:47.759 was an international student in two thousand and seven when 376 00:20:47.799 --> 00:20:51.079 this encounter happened. That time, I used to live alone 377 00:20:51.079 --> 00:20:54.279 in a small two story townhouse in Arcadia, a small 378 00:20:54.319 --> 00:20:59.960 town located within Los Angeles in southern California. College line 379 00:21:00.279 --> 00:21:03.839 was stressful for me. I skipped many classes and missed 380 00:21:03.880 --> 00:21:06.799 many class assignment deadlines, and that caused me to have 381 00:21:06.799 --> 00:21:11.440 a depression. One evening after watching TV all day inside 382 00:21:11.480 --> 00:21:14.440 my bedroom and doing nothing productive, I wanted to go 383 00:21:14.519 --> 00:21:17.599 to the kitchen downstairs to cook dinner. I turned off 384 00:21:17.640 --> 00:21:21.400 the TV, got up and walked to the door. When 385 00:21:21.400 --> 00:21:25.079 I opened the bedroom door, I saw a translucent humanoid thing. 386 00:21:26.000 --> 00:21:28.319 It was sitting on the floor in the common area 387 00:21:28.359 --> 00:21:32.359 with legs crossed and its back faced my direction. I 388 00:21:32.480 --> 00:21:36.240 was so shocked and terrified when I saw it. I 389 00:21:36.359 --> 00:21:40.720 clearly saw its outlines. It was cloaked like the alien 390 00:21:40.759 --> 00:21:43.799 in the Predator movie. It was about five to six 391 00:21:43.839 --> 00:21:47.359 feet tall and a thin body. I felt a strong 392 00:21:47.519 --> 00:21:51.400 malevolent energy coming from it. I closed back my bedroom 393 00:21:51.400 --> 00:21:53.440 door and locked it from the inside. When it started 394 00:21:53.480 --> 00:21:56.720 to get up slowly and walk toward me, I tried 395 00:21:56.720 --> 00:21:59.240 to stay awake that night. With possibility that it could 396 00:21:59.240 --> 00:22:03.079 go through solid and walls cross my mind. I turned 397 00:22:03.079 --> 00:22:05.680 on an audio Bible with maximum volume and prayed to 398 00:22:05.720 --> 00:22:09.200 God to send his divine protection. I didn't come out 399 00:22:09.279 --> 00:22:11.839 until the following day around noon because I thought sunlight 400 00:22:11.880 --> 00:22:15.240 from the windows would make that thing go away. The 401 00:22:15.359 --> 00:22:18.359 day after, it was gone, and I didn't ever see 402 00:22:18.359 --> 00:22:25.920 it again. Thank you for your time, Signed Albert Lake, 403 00:22:26.079 --> 00:22:31.680 Jacomo Glimmerman. Good day. My name is Christina. I have 404 00:22:31.720 --> 00:22:34.119 an experience with a translucent entity that I would like 405 00:22:34.160 --> 00:22:37.759 to share with you. I main concern is seeking answers 406 00:22:37.799 --> 00:22:40.799 to what exactly I've witnessed well at Lake Jacomo on 407 00:22:40.880 --> 00:22:44.279 two separate occasions, the second one being dark energies or 408 00:22:44.559 --> 00:22:48.400 black slash gray orbs, possibly the fay or forest spirits. 409 00:22:50.160 --> 00:22:53.200 The first incident was right around four years ago. I 410 00:22:53.240 --> 00:22:55.319 know this because the other day I found the citation 411 00:22:55.400 --> 00:22:57.240 I'd received on my car from being at the lake 412 00:22:57.279 --> 00:23:01.160 past closing time, which is sunset. Finding it brought the 413 00:23:01.200 --> 00:23:03.880 feelings I'd experienced that night and for several months, even 414 00:23:03.960 --> 00:23:07.839 years afterwards back to me. These feelings consist of a 415 00:23:07.839 --> 00:23:10.519 deep need to know, almost to the point of obsession, 416 00:23:11.079 --> 00:23:14.319 what I saw and what other people have seen as well. 417 00:23:15.079 --> 00:23:19.599 I need answers, So let me explain. Myself and my 418 00:23:19.640 --> 00:23:23.279 boyfriend were at Lake Jacomo sometime in April twenty seventeen. 419 00:23:23.960 --> 00:23:25.519 I could tell you the exact date if I had 420 00:23:25.519 --> 00:23:28.960 the citation in front of me, but it's put away anyway. 421 00:23:29.240 --> 00:23:31.240 He and I love to be out in nature, digging 422 00:23:31.319 --> 00:23:33.519 up plants to plant in the yard, or picking flowers, 423 00:23:33.599 --> 00:23:37.680 or just being outdoors. We also collect things like rocks, 424 00:23:37.880 --> 00:23:43.039 interesting ones with crystals, also driftwood and my favorite arrowheads, 425 00:23:43.640 --> 00:23:47.000 things like that. We also collect old bottles and you 426 00:23:47.039 --> 00:23:49.640 can find most of these things there. So it was 427 00:23:49.640 --> 00:23:52.200 probably around six pm on that spring night when we 428 00:23:52.279 --> 00:23:55.079 arrive at the lake. The sun doesn't set until about 429 00:23:55.119 --> 00:23:58.559 seven thirty eight. That's when they locked the gates, and 430 00:23:58.599 --> 00:24:02.960 it's posted. Thinking about it, it's funny because they only 431 00:24:03.039 --> 00:24:04.720 locked down part of the lake. The rest of the 432 00:24:04.799 --> 00:24:08.960 lake you can go to all night long anytime anyway. 433 00:24:09.079 --> 00:24:11.559 So we mess around, find a snake and video it. 434 00:24:12.039 --> 00:24:14.079 Then I go my own way looking for something cool 435 00:24:14.079 --> 00:24:16.480 to add to our collection. My boyfriend stays up on 436 00:24:16.519 --> 00:24:19.240 a rock cliff face and I venture down into the 437 00:24:19.240 --> 00:24:21.519 area below where he is and go around the corner. 438 00:24:22.039 --> 00:24:24.759 We're probably fifty feet apart, but I can't see him 439 00:24:24.799 --> 00:24:27.599 and he can't see me. He told me that he 440 00:24:27.599 --> 00:24:29.759 heard a splash in the water just a good ten 441 00:24:29.799 --> 00:24:32.440 minutes after I went down to where I was, which 442 00:24:32.480 --> 00:24:34.279 I wasn't near the water, and he thought maybe it 443 00:24:34.319 --> 00:24:36.920 was me messing with him, but I know it wasn't. 444 00:24:37.799 --> 00:24:40.000 And he thought he felt a presence of something and 445 00:24:40.119 --> 00:24:43.680 maybe saw movements out of a peripheral vision, which he 446 00:24:43.720 --> 00:24:46.279 also then again thought it was me, and he looked 447 00:24:46.279 --> 00:24:49.319 and didn't see anything. So then his mind started wandering, 448 00:24:50.000 --> 00:24:52.480 thinking that I was somehow doing some sort of magic 449 00:24:52.599 --> 00:24:54.920 or something and messing with his head, which isn't something 450 00:24:54.920 --> 00:24:58.160 that I would do because I'm not a practitioner witchcraft 451 00:24:58.160 --> 00:25:02.039 at all. Well, he says, he hollers for me, calls 452 00:25:02.079 --> 00:25:04.359 my name several times, and I didn't hear him. Not 453 00:25:04.440 --> 00:25:07.880 one time. I didn't hear anything. And so eventually he 454 00:25:07.920 --> 00:25:11.400 comes down and finds me. At this point, it's after dark, 455 00:25:11.519 --> 00:25:14.720 so we walked over toward my car to leave. Before 456 00:25:14.720 --> 00:25:16.720 we go, though, he decides to go down to the 457 00:25:16.759 --> 00:25:18.559 water to do whatever it is he wanted to do. 458 00:25:19.519 --> 00:25:21.519 That's when I found a citation on my car for 459 00:25:21.599 --> 00:25:25.160 being there after curfew, which I just found again the 460 00:25:25.200 --> 00:25:27.079 other day, and it reminded me of this whole thing 461 00:25:27.119 --> 00:25:31.079 all over again. My car was parked roughly forty five 462 00:25:31.079 --> 00:25:33.599 feet down off the road. The road is on a 463 00:25:33.640 --> 00:25:37.119 curve of the guardrail. It's also parked about thirty five 464 00:25:37.160 --> 00:25:40.440 feet from the water where he is. I'm standing by 465 00:25:40.440 --> 00:25:42.599 my car when I hear what I assume as someone 466 00:25:42.640 --> 00:25:46.000 walking up with the road. It definitely sounded by a 467 00:25:46.039 --> 00:25:50.240 pedal footsteps crunching leaves. I mean clearly, I can hear 468 00:25:50.279 --> 00:25:52.440 the leaves and the little twigs breaking, So it's obvious 469 00:25:52.440 --> 00:25:54.480 to me that somebody was up there and wanted me 470 00:25:54.559 --> 00:25:58.319 to know it. They weren't trying to be stealthy. But 471 00:25:58.359 --> 00:26:00.559 when I look up there first, I didn't see anything. 472 00:26:01.519 --> 00:26:04.079 As I'm watching and listening and hearing, I begin to 473 00:26:04.079 --> 00:26:07.720 make out a shimmery sea through moving thing. To me, 474 00:26:07.839 --> 00:26:11.240 it looked like water moving like on the the Abyss 475 00:26:11.279 --> 00:26:13.279 when that water thing comes out of the water and 476 00:26:13.400 --> 00:26:16.240 is moving like that, in a different shape, not any 477 00:26:16.319 --> 00:26:19.279 tubular water funnel. It was like a body or a 478 00:26:19.279 --> 00:26:22.519 mass of water walking. And when I say walking, I 479 00:26:22.519 --> 00:26:24.759 mean I could see its movements, and it was seemingly 480 00:26:24.799 --> 00:26:27.680 moving forward in a walking fashion, and it was crunching 481 00:26:27.720 --> 00:26:29.599 the leaves as it did so, telling me that it 482 00:26:29.640 --> 00:26:32.039 had mass and some weight behind it, even though it 483 00:26:32.079 --> 00:26:36.279 was practically invisible. By practically invisible, I mean I could 484 00:26:36.279 --> 00:26:38.720 see it, but it was definitely clear and see through. 485 00:26:39.559 --> 00:26:41.759 If it wasn't moving, I might not have seen it 486 00:26:41.799 --> 00:26:45.000 at all. And what seemed to me to feel like 487 00:26:45.039 --> 00:26:47.680 almost a state of shock, like my mind was denying 488 00:26:47.680 --> 00:26:49.680 what I'm looking at, trying to make sense of it. 489 00:26:50.240 --> 00:26:52.279 There was nothing I could compare it to that I've 490 00:26:52.279 --> 00:26:56.799 ever witnessed before. Besides in the movies. I could see 491 00:26:56.839 --> 00:27:00.480 through it and I had to really focus, and I'm like, 492 00:27:01.240 --> 00:27:04.960 am I really saying this? There's something walking up there. 493 00:27:06.039 --> 00:27:08.039 I could see it moving, like you can just tell 494 00:27:08.079 --> 00:27:11.319 when something's moving, and there's just enough light behind it 495 00:27:11.359 --> 00:27:13.400 coming from the street light that i can see it 496 00:27:13.480 --> 00:27:17.079 shimmer as it moved. And I'm sure no more than 497 00:27:17.119 --> 00:27:19.799 a minute or two goes by and my mind still 498 00:27:19.839 --> 00:27:22.119 isn't sure what I'm looking at and is still in denial. 499 00:27:23.039 --> 00:27:25.079 It seemed to be about ten to twelve feet tall, 500 00:27:25.240 --> 00:27:28.039 I swear, but I'm not the best judge of those things. 501 00:27:28.839 --> 00:27:30.759 So I kept looking trying to figure out what it 502 00:27:30.839 --> 00:27:33.039 is I'm looking at, and I'm hearing it, and it's 503 00:27:33.039 --> 00:27:36.519 definitely walking. I can totally hear it and see something. 504 00:27:36.599 --> 00:27:39.000 And I'm about forty five to fifty feet down from 505 00:27:39.039 --> 00:27:42.079 where it is. It wasn't trying to be quiet, so 506 00:27:42.119 --> 00:27:44.759 it wanted me to know it was there. So my 507 00:27:44.839 --> 00:27:47.839 boyfriend comes up towards me and I say, hey, baby, 508 00:27:47.960 --> 00:27:50.640 I think there's somebody up there? Why don't you check 509 00:27:50.680 --> 00:27:54.039 it out? My boyfriend is bold and pretty much fearless, 510 00:27:54.039 --> 00:27:56.519 and I know he can handle himself, and at that time, 511 00:27:56.559 --> 00:27:58.480 I didn't feel there was any danger, or I would 512 00:27:58.519 --> 00:28:01.599 have sent him up there. So he walks up there. 513 00:28:01.720 --> 00:28:03.519 I didn't tell him what I was thinking or what 514 00:28:03.559 --> 00:28:06.720 I saw either, because I wasn't sure at that point 515 00:28:06.799 --> 00:28:08.680 and I didn't want him to think I was crazy, 516 00:28:08.759 --> 00:28:11.920 and I also needed some personal confirmation that I'm not crazy. 517 00:28:13.119 --> 00:28:14.880 So he goes up there and checks it out, comes 518 00:28:14.920 --> 00:28:17.720 back down and I asked, was there somebody up there? 519 00:28:18.400 --> 00:28:21.759 He's like, there was something up there? And my stomach 520 00:28:21.839 --> 00:28:24.480 just drops and I'm like, oh my gosh, I'm really 521 00:28:24.519 --> 00:28:28.440 not crazy. And you saw it too, and he's like, yeah, 522 00:28:28.519 --> 00:28:33.960 I did. I said what was it? He said, I 523 00:28:34.000 --> 00:28:37.480 don't know exactly, and it just stepped over the guardrail 524 00:28:37.559 --> 00:28:41.799 and was gone. At that point, I'm like, okay, let's go. 525 00:28:42.200 --> 00:28:44.759 When we get into the car and we leave, that's 526 00:28:44.759 --> 00:28:47.279 when I started getting it really freaked out. For some reason. 527 00:28:48.079 --> 00:28:51.119 I don't know why, but I became overwhelmingly scared right 528 00:28:51.119 --> 00:28:53.559 then because I didn't know what it was, and he 529 00:28:53.599 --> 00:28:57.079 confirmed what I thought I saw. I really saw it, 530 00:28:57.480 --> 00:28:59.359 and I felt like there was no denying it. I 531 00:28:59.400 --> 00:29:03.640 really did, and it scared me. There was something invisible 532 00:29:03.799 --> 00:29:07.000 walking and watching us, and clearly it wanted us to 533 00:29:07.039 --> 00:29:09.759 know that it was there. So we get around to 534 00:29:09.799 --> 00:29:11.880 the gate that they locked because it was after dark 535 00:29:11.880 --> 00:29:15.279 and weren't supposed to be out of there. So he 536 00:29:15.359 --> 00:29:17.519 walks like a football field away from me, trying to 537 00:29:17.519 --> 00:29:20.359 find somebody to open the gate, and I'm freaking out 538 00:29:20.400 --> 00:29:22.039 the whole time because he left me in the car 539 00:29:22.079 --> 00:29:24.160 by myself, and I'm thinking it's going to come back 540 00:29:24.200 --> 00:29:27.759 and get me. Eventually comes back to the car and 541 00:29:27.799 --> 00:29:29.920 we ended up driving around the big stones they closed 542 00:29:29.920 --> 00:29:31.640 around the gate to keep people in or out so 543 00:29:31.680 --> 00:29:34.759 people can't drive around it. We found a way, and 544 00:29:34.799 --> 00:29:37.039 I was terrified the whole time, mainly because I didn't 545 00:29:37.079 --> 00:29:39.519 know what it was and I never saw anything like 546 00:29:39.559 --> 00:29:43.759 that before or heard of anything like that. But we 547 00:29:43.839 --> 00:29:45.680 got out of there, and I was obsessed for the 548 00:29:45.720 --> 00:29:49.839 longest time with figuring out what it was. I googled 549 00:29:49.880 --> 00:29:52.440 it everything I could think of, and I came across 550 00:29:52.480 --> 00:29:54.960 the Reddit story and your other stories about some witness 551 00:29:55.039 --> 00:29:58.960 encounters with invisible beings. In the woods, but no definitive answers. 552 00:29:59.400 --> 00:30:02.599 These were just stories people told, just like me. But 553 00:30:02.680 --> 00:30:05.960 nobody seems to know what it is, and I'm sure 554 00:30:06.039 --> 00:30:07.920 people thought I was nuts for a while because I 555 00:30:08.000 --> 00:30:10.119 was talking about it because I wanted to know what 556 00:30:10.240 --> 00:30:14.039 it was. I wanted to know what it was, why 557 00:30:14.079 --> 00:30:16.880 it was there, where it came from, and why it 558 00:30:16.920 --> 00:30:20.759 shows us at least someone is not a small town. 559 00:30:20.880 --> 00:30:22.799 A lot of people by can hike out there along 560 00:30:22.839 --> 00:30:25.640 with fishing and camping, so I was hoping that somebody 561 00:30:25.680 --> 00:30:29.200 else had seen it as well. How am I going 562 00:30:29.240 --> 00:30:31.440 to find out unless I talk about it, share my 563 00:30:31.519 --> 00:30:35.279 story and ask questions. But as you would expect, everybody 564 00:30:35.319 --> 00:30:37.000 just kind of looked at me like I was crazy. 565 00:30:37.839 --> 00:30:40.599 My boyfriend wouldn't talk about with anyone, barely would even 566 00:30:40.640 --> 00:30:43.480 talk about it with me, and there I was obsessed 567 00:30:43.480 --> 00:30:45.440 over it. Eventually, you know, I just got tired of 568 00:30:45.480 --> 00:30:47.920 looking without finding any answer, so I kind of put 569 00:30:47.960 --> 00:30:50.319 it out of my mind. After I spent hours researching, 570 00:30:50.680 --> 00:30:53.680 telling people my story, asking people, with no real progress 571 00:30:53.720 --> 00:30:56.799 being made and no real answers, and solving my riddle. 572 00:30:57.519 --> 00:30:59.599 I even went back and visited the lake by myself, 573 00:30:59.640 --> 00:31:01.880 trying to say if I could see it again, I 574 00:31:01.920 --> 00:31:05.319 went in the daytime. Though I'm not that brave, I mean, 575 00:31:05.400 --> 00:31:08.880 I really wanted an answer. My desire to find answers 576 00:31:08.960 --> 00:31:12.559 was stronger than my fear of this entity. Who knows 577 00:31:13.200 --> 00:31:15.160 if I'd ran into it again by myself, I might 578 00:31:15.240 --> 00:31:19.400 change my mind about which one was stronger. When I 579 00:31:19.400 --> 00:31:21.839 found my citation the other day, it came back into 580 00:31:21.839 --> 00:31:24.480 my mind and has become a strong guiding focal point 581 00:31:24.480 --> 00:31:27.960 again in my life. Seems like it's not quite as 582 00:31:28.039 --> 00:31:30.400 taboo to talk about such things as it was even 583 00:31:30.480 --> 00:31:34.440 four years ago, and I want to find answers still. 584 00:31:34.599 --> 00:31:36.880 I'm hoping that you or somebody will talk about it 585 00:31:36.920 --> 00:31:39.640 on the show or other shows, and amongst the people 586 00:31:39.640 --> 00:31:42.240 that you communicate with, or just anyone in general you 587 00:31:42.319 --> 00:31:44.799 come across and get the ball rolling on finding more 588 00:31:44.839 --> 00:31:48.440 evidence on what it is. Who else has had sightings 589 00:31:48.920 --> 00:31:51.880 so on. I know more and more sightings than these 590 00:31:51.920 --> 00:31:54.720 invisible creatures have happened, and I believe we need to 591 00:31:54.759 --> 00:31:57.000 know and should be making it a priority to find 592 00:31:57.000 --> 00:32:00.160 out what they are exactly. I feel something and they 593 00:32:00.160 --> 00:32:03.200 can cloak itself with invisibility is a big deal, and 594 00:32:03.279 --> 00:32:06.279 we should educate ourselves on what we're dealing with, and 595 00:32:06.319 --> 00:32:08.279 you would think the government would be all over that. 596 00:32:09.359 --> 00:32:12.200 I won't settle for assumptions. We need to know what 597 00:32:12.400 --> 00:32:17.000 they are. No guessing. I've heard Bigfoot and aliens, but 598 00:32:17.079 --> 00:32:19.799 I want to know for sure. I want to know one, 599 00:32:20.799 --> 00:32:24.720 no question, Okay. So that was the first experience at 600 00:32:24.799 --> 00:32:27.440 Lake Jacomo. The other one was just a couple months 601 00:32:27.480 --> 00:32:29.480 ago when I went to the lake all by myself 602 00:32:29.640 --> 00:32:33.440 because I'm a big girl, but kidding, making jokes, but 603 00:32:33.519 --> 00:32:36.359 I was alone, and on this day there was nobody 604 00:32:36.400 --> 00:32:38.680 out there. I could have screamed and there would have 605 00:32:38.680 --> 00:32:42.279 been nobody near enough to hear me. The overall energy 606 00:32:42.480 --> 00:32:45.720 was a little unnerving. I typically always walk down a 607 00:32:45.720 --> 00:32:47.640 certain trail and I go down with the water and 608 00:32:47.680 --> 00:32:49.440 I look for driftwood, and then I go back to 609 00:32:49.480 --> 00:32:52.279 the trail and keep walking around, checking on my little 610 00:32:52.279 --> 00:32:56.000 spots for gorgeous driftwood. I can't live without. That day, 611 00:32:56.119 --> 00:32:59.279 it just felt different. I felt uneasy, and I thought 612 00:32:59.279 --> 00:33:01.359 I heard somebody or something while I was down with 613 00:33:01.400 --> 00:33:04.319 the water, but I didn't see anybody. And I know 614 00:33:04.400 --> 00:33:06.799 for a fact there were no cars parked at the trailhead. 615 00:33:06.839 --> 00:33:10.279 When I came down just moments before, I couldn't remember 616 00:33:10.279 --> 00:33:12.599 a feeling like I needed to constantly be aware of 617 00:33:12.640 --> 00:33:15.359 my surroundings. And generally I'm stuck in the dirt looking 618 00:33:15.359 --> 00:33:19.319 for arrowheads or looking for driftwood, and I'm not paying 619 00:33:19.319 --> 00:33:22.559 attention to my surroundings. But that day something told me 620 00:33:22.599 --> 00:33:25.680 that I needed to. Of course, there was also the 621 00:33:25.720 --> 00:33:27.440 fact that I kept seeing what I thought was a 622 00:33:27.440 --> 00:33:29.440 bird flying from one tree to another out of my 623 00:33:29.480 --> 00:33:31.960 perierro vision when I looked up there, but there would 624 00:33:31.960 --> 00:33:35.359 be nothing there, and it happened several times. Once again, 625 00:33:35.400 --> 00:33:39.200 I told myself, you're leaving, but I didn't leave. Instead, 626 00:33:39.240 --> 00:33:41.880 I got my phone out and I started recording, and 627 00:33:41.920 --> 00:33:44.000 I went on for about I don't know twenty minutes, 628 00:33:44.559 --> 00:33:47.079 turned around and went back, ignoring my gut feelings. But 629 00:33:47.160 --> 00:33:49.400 I made it out of there. And when I got home, 630 00:33:49.480 --> 00:33:53.000 I went over my video footage and lo and behold, 631 00:33:53.079 --> 00:33:56.160 I caught a black orb. But I know I saw 632 00:33:56.200 --> 00:33:59.240 it following me around. I caught it no less than 633 00:33:59.319 --> 00:34:03.279 fourteen times on three different videos. This plus a couple 634 00:34:03.359 --> 00:34:05.440 other different anomalies, and I would like to know what 635 00:34:05.559 --> 00:34:08.119 they are and what it meant, I did look up 636 00:34:08.239 --> 00:34:11.320 orbs and their colors and meanings. Black orbs usually get 637 00:34:11.320 --> 00:34:14.519 a bad reputation because they usually accompany something bad happening 638 00:34:14.559 --> 00:34:17.800 to somebody. Well, the role of these entities, as far 639 00:34:17.800 --> 00:34:20.639 as I understood it to be, is to make you uncomfortable, 640 00:34:20.679 --> 00:34:23.840 so you leave a certain situation because there's something in 641 00:34:23.880 --> 00:34:25.599 the area or in front of you that's going to 642 00:34:25.639 --> 00:34:29.719 harm you. So really, in my eyes, they are a blessing. 643 00:34:30.440 --> 00:34:32.320 It's like they're watching out for you. Even if they 644 00:34:32.320 --> 00:34:36.639 make you feel uncomfortable, it's for a good reason. The 645 00:34:36.679 --> 00:34:38.719 same token I didn't leave when I felt like I 646 00:34:38.719 --> 00:34:42.199 should have that day. Instead, I kept going and recording 647 00:34:42.239 --> 00:34:45.000 and nothing bad happened to me. So maybe they weren't 648 00:34:45.000 --> 00:34:48.079 even black orbs after all. Maybe they were some other 649 00:34:48.119 --> 00:34:52.039 type entity. I don't know, but I sure would like 650 00:34:52.119 --> 00:35:01.519 some answers. Thanks, Signed Christina my Strange Encounters. My story 651 00:35:01.559 --> 00:35:04.360 is similar to some I've heard on your channel. However, 652 00:35:04.360 --> 00:35:06.360 it happened to me before I ever knew there were 653 00:35:06.400 --> 00:35:10.280 other stories out there. It started as I began studying 654 00:35:10.320 --> 00:35:14.360 ancient folk religions for a class in university. At least, 655 00:35:14.440 --> 00:35:16.760 I believe this type of thinking It's what conditioned my 656 00:35:16.840 --> 00:35:20.920 mind to be sensitive and perceptive to the experience. Come 657 00:35:21.000 --> 00:35:23.559 near the end of the semester, I was tripping acid 658 00:35:23.639 --> 00:35:27.360 before final exams. The trip I had was beyond belief. 659 00:35:28.199 --> 00:35:30.039 I was sitting on the couch when all of a 660 00:35:30.039 --> 00:35:34.840 sudden or slowly, I could not tell time, there was 661 00:35:34.840 --> 00:35:38.360 a haunting gale that became audible like a tornado had 662 00:35:38.440 --> 00:35:42.519 surrounded my apartment. Then from out of an electrical socket 663 00:35:42.840 --> 00:35:47.000 came multiple around ten small creatures that I at the 664 00:35:47.039 --> 00:35:51.159 time called electric elves. They were several inches tall and 665 00:35:51.280 --> 00:35:54.719 a dark color. They were laughing and giggling as they 666 00:35:54.760 --> 00:35:58.599 crawled all over my body. However, I felt no sensation, 667 00:35:58.920 --> 00:36:03.320 only visual and audible registers of the phenomenon. Now, I've 668 00:36:03.320 --> 00:36:06.679 tripped many times before, and this encounter was completely unlike 669 00:36:06.719 --> 00:36:09.440 anything I'd ever experienced because of how tangible and real 670 00:36:09.480 --> 00:36:13.400 it was. My girlfriend was with me and her usually 671 00:36:13.400 --> 00:36:16.280 timid dog. The dog was lying under the bed for 672 00:36:16.360 --> 00:36:18.360 most of the day, but as soon as this experience 673 00:36:18.440 --> 00:36:20.920 came on, the dog came right out from the bedroom 674 00:36:20.960 --> 00:36:24.559 and crawled onto my lap. The dog was completely relaxed, 675 00:36:24.880 --> 00:36:27.719 so I was too. I eventually got up and moved 676 00:36:27.719 --> 00:36:30.960 from the couch after my girlfriend began a conversation, thus 677 00:36:31.039 --> 00:36:35.079 ending the experience. But this was only the beginning. The 678 00:36:35.159 --> 00:36:38.079 days to come would yield much more vivid sensations of 679 00:36:38.119 --> 00:36:41.000 the other worldly, and I was much more sober too, 680 00:36:41.679 --> 00:36:44.639 debunking the idea that it was purely an induced hallucination 681 00:36:44.800 --> 00:36:47.960 due to the drug. I could not stay at my 682 00:36:48.039 --> 00:36:50.719 normal place because of vivid apparitions that would come to 683 00:36:50.719 --> 00:36:54.159 me after the long study session. Even weeks before my 684 00:36:54.199 --> 00:36:58.559 intake of any hallucinigen, I saw many things manifest in 685 00:36:58.599 --> 00:37:01.440 the dark void in my closet late at night, something 686 00:37:01.440 --> 00:37:04.719 that could only be explained as religious. I saw a 687 00:37:04.760 --> 00:37:07.840 four winged owl and what appeared to be three shadow 688 00:37:07.840 --> 00:37:11.880 figures and a much smaller hooded figure beside them. Even 689 00:37:11.920 --> 00:37:14.239 when I closed my eyes, I could not stop seeing 690 00:37:14.280 --> 00:37:18.000 these things. I noticed that my ability to understand my 691 00:37:18.079 --> 00:37:21.960 studies had greatly increased, and I was designing complete chemical 692 00:37:22.000 --> 00:37:24.800 processes out of my head and making inferences to the 693 00:37:24.840 --> 00:37:28.800 most complex quantum mechanical principles and atomic properties that were 694 00:37:28.840 --> 00:37:30.519 not taught to me at the level of school that 695 00:37:30.599 --> 00:37:34.920 was at This is something even professional chemists have trouble doing. 696 00:37:36.079 --> 00:37:38.440 I feel like this increased level of insight was due 697 00:37:38.440 --> 00:37:40.719 to the thinning of the veil that was already occurring 698 00:37:40.719 --> 00:37:44.719 around me, like accessing another dimensional found of knowledge and power. 699 00:37:45.679 --> 00:37:48.480 I had to get out of this house, but the 700 00:37:48.559 --> 00:37:50.440 end of the semester was here, so to take my 701 00:37:50.519 --> 00:37:52.840 final exams, I rented a hotel room for a week 702 00:37:52.960 --> 00:37:56.559 and went to work. During and after my last test, 703 00:37:57.000 --> 00:37:59.400 I kept feeling the uncontrollable urge to get on a 704 00:37:59.400 --> 00:38:05.199 plane without a set destination, but I eventually settled on Phoenix, Arizona, 705 00:38:05.280 --> 00:38:08.320 due to my girlfriend having family in the area. I 706 00:38:08.360 --> 00:38:10.639 would make it to the city, but the first night 707 00:38:10.760 --> 00:38:14.320 proved to be too much for me. I resisted several 708 00:38:14.400 --> 00:38:17.760 uncontrollable urges to get on the plane, but eventually succumbed 709 00:38:17.760 --> 00:38:20.760 to the external pressure backoning me homeward and dropped everything 710 00:38:21.000 --> 00:38:24.920 and took the flight. Even on the plane, I felt 711 00:38:24.920 --> 00:38:27.400 the sensation that I was leaving this world in one 712 00:38:27.400 --> 00:38:30.639 way or another. I did not arrange for a hotel, 713 00:38:30.840 --> 00:38:33.400 choosing instead to spend the first night under the stars 714 00:38:34.880 --> 00:38:36.679 to get a better look at them. I climbed the 715 00:38:36.719 --> 00:38:38.679 top a two story building and laid out on the 716 00:38:38.760 --> 00:38:42.599 roof from this roof, I saw an extremely large triangular 717 00:38:42.639 --> 00:38:45.519 craft with lights running evenly spaced along its trim in 718 00:38:45.559 --> 00:38:49.360 the air. I stayed here for some time and was 719 00:38:49.400 --> 00:38:51.880 then shown two balls of light far in the distance 720 00:38:51.880 --> 00:38:56.199 of the night sky. They were plummeting directly into the earth, 721 00:38:56.360 --> 00:38:59.840 one after the other. However, there were no tails like 722 00:38:59.840 --> 00:39:03.000 shooting stars. Though they did give off a reddish light. 723 00:39:04.079 --> 00:39:06.880 Their trajectory did not match any meteor, as they moved 724 00:39:06.880 --> 00:39:09.639 at a ninety degree angle of the ground, meeting it 725 00:39:09.639 --> 00:39:12.880 at a point in the distance. There was no sound 726 00:39:12.960 --> 00:39:16.400 of impact or a flash of light. I knew immediately 727 00:39:16.480 --> 00:39:19.440 this was it what I'd been brought out here to see. 728 00:39:20.800 --> 00:39:23.000 In order to get a better look at both phenomenons, 729 00:39:23.360 --> 00:39:26.079 I tried to climb down to the ground. It seemed 730 00:39:26.079 --> 00:39:28.320 to be as easy as when I climbed up, but 731 00:39:28.440 --> 00:39:30.800 when I committed to the climb, I felt a shift 732 00:39:30.800 --> 00:39:33.239 of gravity and was pulled backwards off the ledge by 733 00:39:33.239 --> 00:39:37.679 some external force. I hit the ground, breaking my wrist 734 00:39:37.679 --> 00:39:40.760 and elbow, as well as shattering a vertebrae in my back. 735 00:39:42.280 --> 00:39:44.679 In the hospital, I saw a reflection in the metal 736 00:39:44.760 --> 00:39:47.639 light above my hospital bed of my own funeral with 737 00:39:47.760 --> 00:39:51.360 all my family. However, my casket was open and the 738 00:39:51.360 --> 00:39:54.280 service was being held in the household initially started having 739 00:39:54.360 --> 00:39:58.360 the visuals in the closet instead of a church. I 740 00:39:58.400 --> 00:40:01.360 looked away several times for long periods, hoping it would 741 00:40:01.400 --> 00:40:04.159 go away, but every time I looked up at the light, 742 00:40:04.519 --> 00:40:08.000 it was still there. Also, one of my nerveses seemed 743 00:40:08.000 --> 00:40:09.719 to know what was happening to me and wrote a 744 00:40:09.760 --> 00:40:12.199 strange rouine on the glass window to the bathroom of 745 00:40:12.199 --> 00:40:16.159 the hospital room. It looked like something a cult and 746 00:40:16.360 --> 00:40:19.599 was no way of medical or scientific symbol, as I'm 747 00:40:19.599 --> 00:40:23.679 a trained chemist and electrician, a man of science. The 748 00:40:23.719 --> 00:40:26.039 following day, I was moved out of this room that 749 00:40:26.119 --> 00:40:30.000 was in a tower into a separate tower. After my transfer, 750 00:40:30.039 --> 00:40:32.320 I attempted to locate the first tower I was in, 751 00:40:32.760 --> 00:40:34.920 but it seemed to not exist, as there were no 752 00:40:35.000 --> 00:40:38.320 signs in the hospital for it. I was crippled for 753 00:40:38.360 --> 00:40:40.639 a long time, but after my surgery, I had rods 754 00:40:40.639 --> 00:40:43.679 inserted into my back that completely returned my mobility with 755 00:40:43.760 --> 00:40:47.960 basically no pain. It was a literal miracle that I'd 756 00:40:47.960 --> 00:40:50.360 bone fragments lodged in my spinal cord that should have 757 00:40:50.360 --> 00:40:53.960 at least partially paralyzed me. The weirdness of visions did 758 00:40:53.960 --> 00:40:57.280 not stop there. I returned to my hometown after being 759 00:40:57.320 --> 00:41:00.239 released from the hospital in Phoenix and immediately moved down 760 00:41:00.320 --> 00:41:04.000 the old haunted house I was staying in before. My 761 00:41:04.079 --> 00:41:06.199 parents were skeptical but helped me as they could tell 762 00:41:06.199 --> 00:41:09.280 I was experiencing something strange, having told them of the 763 00:41:09.360 --> 00:41:13.000 off feelings I was having even before my trip to Arizona. 764 00:41:13.360 --> 00:41:15.239 I moved into a hotel. While I was waiting for 765 00:41:15.280 --> 00:41:19.119 the paperwork to process for a new lease. At this hotel, 766 00:41:19.280 --> 00:41:22.400 I had several visions, mainly if a floating heave, an 767 00:41:22.400 --> 00:41:25.719 old man telling me something I couldn't make out, possibly 768 00:41:25.760 --> 00:41:29.800 insulting me. I was awake for this, not dreaming, as 769 00:41:29.800 --> 00:41:32.000 I got up from the bed after the vision disappeared 770 00:41:32.000 --> 00:41:35.760 to make sure. Then, after moving into my new apartment, 771 00:41:36.159 --> 00:41:38.239 it seems that not only did whatever was at the 772 00:41:38.280 --> 00:41:41.400 first house follow me, but it had been amplified by 773 00:41:41.440 --> 00:41:45.159 my experience in Phoenix. The first strange thing happened about 774 00:41:45.199 --> 00:41:47.639 a week into my new lease. I was in bed 775 00:41:47.679 --> 00:41:50.440 and fell asleep like usual. It is where I woke 776 00:41:50.559 --> 00:41:53.320 up that truly startled me. I came to on my 777 00:41:53.400 --> 00:41:56.119 balcony of the third floor and was thrust into a 778 00:41:56.159 --> 00:41:58.400 literal fight for my life with a force I could 779 00:41:58.440 --> 00:42:00.639 not see, but it was a very strong It was 780 00:42:00.639 --> 00:42:02.519 trying to force me over the railing to fall to 781 00:42:02.599 --> 00:42:05.440 the ground below, probably trying to finish the job from 782 00:42:05.440 --> 00:42:09.239 earlier when I'd survived. I was screaming and panting in 783 00:42:09.280 --> 00:42:12.679 a cold sweat, but managed to wrestle myself back inside 784 00:42:12.719 --> 00:42:16.920 and close the door, bolting it shut. Immediately broke down 785 00:42:16.920 --> 00:42:18.960 at the sheer gravity in the situation and had to 786 00:42:19.000 --> 00:42:22.000 call my girlfriend to let her know. She knew weird 787 00:42:22.039 --> 00:42:23.960 things were happening and did not know what to make 788 00:42:24.039 --> 00:42:26.239 of it, but she was worried and was inclined to 789 00:42:26.280 --> 00:42:29.800 agree with me. I had been completely normal before these 790 00:42:29.800 --> 00:42:33.360 things started happening. The next phenomenon ha happened to me 791 00:42:33.440 --> 00:42:35.800 occurred late at night, again as they did at the 792 00:42:35.800 --> 00:42:38.920 first residence. Though were many, many figures that looked like 793 00:42:38.960 --> 00:42:43.559 alien are extra dimensional. They were phantasmal, as if made 794 00:42:43.599 --> 00:42:47.159 of energy or matters that we are not. One of 795 00:42:47.199 --> 00:42:49.119 them appeared to be in charge, and he would look 796 00:42:49.119 --> 00:42:52.599 directly at me while standing over my bed. I never 797 00:42:52.639 --> 00:42:55.360 felt fair and actually smiled at them. Because I could 798 00:42:55.400 --> 00:42:57.519 tell they were harmless, or if they did want to 799 00:42:57.599 --> 00:43:00.000 hurt me, they would just do it. They were trying 800 00:43:00.280 --> 00:43:04.320 to show me something. Whatever that was, my room would 801 00:43:04.360 --> 00:43:07.320 be full of several of these creatures, all of different appearances, 802 00:43:07.760 --> 00:43:10.920 all metaphysical in nature. It seems they came through my 803 00:43:11.000 --> 00:43:16.119 window like the moonlight itself. Eventually, the visions lessened and 804 00:43:16.159 --> 00:43:18.559 as I healed. Perhaps they were involved in my injury 805 00:43:18.559 --> 00:43:21.880 and recovery, perhaps as a study of our medical capabilities, 806 00:43:22.639 --> 00:43:26.320 or just because in their infinite transcendental existence they were 807 00:43:26.400 --> 00:43:30.079 bored and see us as playthings. Whatever happened to me 808 00:43:30.199 --> 00:43:33.920 cannot be written off as a mere psychedelic experience, as 809 00:43:33.920 --> 00:43:36.840 I was not under the influence of hallucinogens for ninety 810 00:43:36.840 --> 00:43:40.360 percent of the encounters. I feel that whatever it is 811 00:43:40.400 --> 00:43:43.719 can completely control and manipulate our brain waves and possibly 812 00:43:43.880 --> 00:43:48.280 in our bodies as a possession. May be demons, aliens, ghosts, 813 00:43:48.280 --> 00:43:50.960 spirits of nature. I do not know, nor am I 814 00:43:51.000 --> 00:43:54.000 going to stress the specifics. I just know what I 815 00:43:54.039 --> 00:43:57.800 saw and felt, and it was too real. I felt 816 00:43:57.800 --> 00:44:01.280 a new sense of agency after this experience, like I'd 817 00:44:01.280 --> 00:44:03.760 been chosen to bear some higher knowledge than most of 818 00:44:03.800 --> 00:44:06.679 my fellow men and had to pay a flesh price 819 00:44:06.719 --> 00:44:09.119 for it with my vertebra bone that was extracted from 820 00:44:09.159 --> 00:44:12.000 my body. I do not want this power to connect 821 00:44:12.000 --> 00:44:14.760 to the other side, nor do I want it. I 822 00:44:14.840 --> 00:44:22.840 simply am it signed Gray, blessed and cursed. From birth, 823 00:44:22.920 --> 00:44:24.519 I guess the Lord had a plan that was going 824 00:44:24.599 --> 00:44:27.199 to be very unique for me. I was born an 825 00:44:27.280 --> 00:44:31.119 identical twin. I came second, my brother coming first. He 826 00:44:31.199 --> 00:44:34.360 was deceased at birth. My mom told me it changed 827 00:44:34.360 --> 00:44:37.400 my dad forever. That day he was in the hallway 828 00:44:37.440 --> 00:44:40.079 of the hospital crying like a baby when the doctor 829 00:44:40.119 --> 00:44:42.920 came out and said, come back in, she's having another baby. 830 00:44:43.320 --> 00:44:46.440 There's another one in the womb. He gave my dad 831 00:44:46.440 --> 00:44:48.199 a new hope, I guess, but he was never the 832 00:44:48.239 --> 00:44:51.639 same again. What was to come from my birth and 833 00:44:51.719 --> 00:44:54.159 my brother's passing was going to be unique for me 834 00:44:54.239 --> 00:44:58.000 growing up and in manhood as well. We grew up 835 00:44:58.000 --> 00:45:00.960 in a city in Ohio called Norwood. At the top 836 00:45:01.079 --> 00:45:04.239 was a sacred mound called Indian Mound, an old Indian 837 00:45:04.239 --> 00:45:07.480 burial ground. Growing up, I would hear a lot of 838 00:45:07.519 --> 00:45:11.719 stories it was cursed. All those buildings a city right 839 00:45:11.800 --> 00:45:13.920 next to and on top of an Indian burial ground. 840 00:45:14.519 --> 00:45:17.880 The Indian souls had been disturbed clearly, and throughout life, 841 00:45:17.880 --> 00:45:21.239 it seems like the whole town was cursed. My first 842 00:45:21.280 --> 00:45:24.519 incident happened when I was about eight. We lived rough 843 00:45:24.559 --> 00:45:27.880 growing up. My dad was a bad alcoholic. He would 844 00:45:27.880 --> 00:45:29.679 come in every night and beat on my mom and 845 00:45:29.679 --> 00:45:33.039 throw plates of food against the wall. I was forced 846 00:45:33.039 --> 00:45:36.280 to become a young man quicker than most. I walked 847 00:45:36.320 --> 00:45:39.000 my sister to school every day. It was my duty, 848 00:45:39.280 --> 00:45:42.960 so I took it seriously. We lived on Lynden Avenue, 849 00:45:43.320 --> 00:45:47.599 the end of Lynden Avenue that sat on a hill, 850 00:45:47.639 --> 00:45:49.440 and at the top you could see across over into 851 00:45:49.480 --> 00:45:52.000 the woods right there and you were at Indian Mound, 852 00:45:53.440 --> 00:45:55.440 decent amount of forest that ran all the way up 853 00:45:55.480 --> 00:46:00.280 to Linder Park in Paradise Pond as well. One warm day, 854 00:46:00.360 --> 00:46:02.599 walking home from school, the woods to the left of 855 00:46:02.639 --> 00:46:05.440 us and the houses are on the right. I'd always 856 00:46:05.480 --> 00:46:07.920 kept my little sister to the inside, the safest point 857 00:46:07.960 --> 00:46:11.039 from any danger. We were half a block away from home. 858 00:46:11.199 --> 00:46:13.119 Went out of nowhere. I heard what sounded like a 859 00:46:13.159 --> 00:46:15.719 whoop and a snort, because a rock crashes into the 860 00:46:15.719 --> 00:46:19.519 street right beside us. Startled by the sound, we both 861 00:46:19.599 --> 00:46:21.760 jumped a bit off to the side, just out of 862 00:46:21.800 --> 00:46:25.239 instinct invade what had come our way. I turned around 863 00:46:25.280 --> 00:46:27.559 and gave a look behind us. Didn't see anything out 864 00:46:27.559 --> 00:46:30.400 of the way, no kids playing tricks, no cars either, 865 00:46:30.920 --> 00:46:34.199 so I turned around and we continued walking. But even 866 00:46:34.239 --> 00:46:37.199 ten minutes later, a bigger rock comes crashing down the street, 867 00:46:37.239 --> 00:46:39.760 as well as another whoop, causing us to jump in 868 00:46:39.760 --> 00:46:42.599 the air as it hit the street. My sister was 869 00:46:42.639 --> 00:46:45.599 really afraid at this point. I look over toward the 870 00:46:45.639 --> 00:46:48.679 woods this time, and what I envisioned next was frightening. 871 00:46:49.599 --> 00:46:51.599 Standing in between the cut of the woods was a 872 00:46:51.639 --> 00:46:55.000 creature black and light gray hair coming off its arms 873 00:46:55.039 --> 00:46:58.559 and two legs, a dark tan, leathery face, but mostly 874 00:46:58.599 --> 00:47:02.320 hair on its face, though not skins showing. Like I said, 875 00:47:02.320 --> 00:47:04.800 it moved so defensive to not be spotted, as it 876 00:47:04.840 --> 00:47:08.400 had a huge muscular build as well, about seven to 877 00:47:08.440 --> 00:47:11.840 eight feet tall and pushing six hundred pounds. It was 878 00:47:11.920 --> 00:47:14.920 moving left to right, it's arms shaking two small trees 879 00:47:14.960 --> 00:47:17.760 that were a bit taller as it moved back and 880 00:47:17.800 --> 00:47:22.400 forth evasively and methodically. This thing was quite scary. The 881 00:47:22.480 --> 00:47:25.760 build of this thing. Just even seeing it vaguely was 882 00:47:25.760 --> 00:47:28.920 frightening for kids our age. I turned to my sister 883 00:47:28.960 --> 00:47:32.079 and say, run now, don't look back. I grabbed her 884 00:47:32.119 --> 00:47:33.920 hand and we bowled off around the corner, down the 885 00:47:34.000 --> 00:47:37.000 hill to her house, first through the front door, and 886 00:47:37.000 --> 00:47:39.199 I run into the kitchen and tell my mom call 887 00:47:39.280 --> 00:47:42.559 the police. Now there's a monster up on Indian Mound. Mom, 888 00:47:42.920 --> 00:47:45.159 growling and whooping and throwing rocks at us. It was 889 00:47:45.159 --> 00:47:48.719 trying to hit us. As my mother turns, she gives 890 00:47:48.760 --> 00:47:51.320 me a look as she says, kids, these days, you're 891 00:47:51.360 --> 00:47:54.400 all crazy. She paid it no attention and told us 892 00:47:54.400 --> 00:47:56.960 to go to our rooms and do her homework. I 893 00:47:56.960 --> 00:47:59.480 remember being so damn mad that she wouldn't believe us, 894 00:47:59.519 --> 00:48:02.119 and that we might be taken during this night from 895 00:48:02.159 --> 00:48:04.880 our beds with this thing. But it would surely track 896 00:48:04.960 --> 00:48:06.800 us down and come through our window and take us, 897 00:48:07.480 --> 00:48:08.960 or would come out of the woods and grab us 898 00:48:08.960 --> 00:48:10.679 the next day on our way to school or on 899 00:48:10.719 --> 00:48:14.079 the way home. We were so traumatized by what had happened. 900 00:48:14.119 --> 00:48:18.239 We never went that route ever again. I'd heard the stories, 901 00:48:18.280 --> 00:48:21.320 but these creatures were supposed to be deep in the woods, 902 00:48:21.360 --> 00:48:23.400 not woods like ours. I mean, there were a lot 903 00:48:23.440 --> 00:48:25.920 of woods in Norwood, but there was a lot of 904 00:48:25.960 --> 00:48:28.920 city as well. All the woods ran along the outer 905 00:48:29.039 --> 00:48:31.079 edge of the city and formed in a full circle, 906 00:48:31.199 --> 00:48:33.599 and the railroad tracks ran right smack through the middle 907 00:48:33.639 --> 00:48:36.079 of town from the north side through to the south. 908 00:48:37.320 --> 00:48:39.639 So I figured this creature had to have traveled here 909 00:48:39.639 --> 00:48:42.400 and just didn't want to be seen that day. This 910 00:48:42.599 --> 00:48:45.840 was my first encounter. I'd have two more encounters of 911 00:48:45.880 --> 00:48:48.679 the creatures in my life, and the next one would 912 00:48:48.679 --> 00:48:51.159 come later as a young man, while fishing with my 913 00:48:51.199 --> 00:48:56.199 best friend up by Lake Callan in the northeastern Ohio. 914 00:48:56.440 --> 00:48:58.679 The stars must have been lined that night because this 915 00:48:58.719 --> 00:49:01.239 fishing trip was going to be life changing. We just 916 00:49:01.280 --> 00:49:04.599 didn't know it yet. My dad and my two uncles, 917 00:49:04.880 --> 00:49:08.400 Rocky and Mike, a former Army ranger. We're heading to 918 00:49:08.400 --> 00:49:10.920 Tom's Mountain and old buddy, my uncle Mike's had a 919 00:49:10.920 --> 00:49:13.760 big piece of land out by the Miami Whitewater Forest 920 00:49:13.960 --> 00:49:17.440 sat right beside it. That setup of having that park 921 00:49:17.480 --> 00:49:19.440 and all that forest was key, I believe in what 922 00:49:19.559 --> 00:49:22.960 happened later that night. We got to Tom's Mountain and 923 00:49:23.000 --> 00:49:24.320 made the climb, and it was a hell of a 924 00:49:24.360 --> 00:49:28.000 climb just to get up there, just to fish. It 925 00:49:28.079 --> 00:49:30.239 was damn well near a ninety degree climb up, and 926 00:49:30.280 --> 00:49:33.159 it was a warm September day. We got to the 927 00:49:33.159 --> 00:49:36.400 top and were nearly worn out. You always threw your 928 00:49:36.400 --> 00:49:38.760 gear down and bent over to suck air after that climb, 929 00:49:38.840 --> 00:49:41.679 hands on knees, But it was always worth it. The 930 00:49:41.719 --> 00:49:45.679 fishing was killer always. Now it started as an ounty 931 00:49:45.719 --> 00:49:48.360 deger he climb, but then flattened out a half mile 932 00:49:48.480 --> 00:49:50.920 up and Lake one was perfectly flat. But on the 933 00:49:50.960 --> 00:49:53.480 north side was another climb up a sixty degree angle 934 00:49:53.559 --> 00:49:56.360 up to Lake two, another one hundred, one hundred and 935 00:49:56.400 --> 00:49:58.760 fifty yards up, but no one ever had the energy 936 00:49:58.800 --> 00:50:01.880 to go any further. Why the fishing was killer. As 937 00:50:01.920 --> 00:50:04.320 I said, there was a ridge that started from the 938 00:50:04.360 --> 00:50:06.920 climb up to Lake two that ran all the way 939 00:50:06.960 --> 00:50:09.960 back towards Toms, but wrapped back around towards Lake two. 940 00:50:10.480 --> 00:50:14.320 We're talking about six thousand acres Miami Whitewater Forest sat 941 00:50:14.440 --> 00:50:19.239 right next to it, so we're talking massive forest mass, waterways, 942 00:50:19.840 --> 00:50:23.719 lakes on and plenty of game deer, rabbits, squirrels, et cetera. 943 00:50:25.039 --> 00:50:27.440 We started fishing. The cows were over on the left 944 00:50:27.480 --> 00:50:29.679 side of the lake. The forest sat three feet from 945 00:50:29.719 --> 00:50:33.079 lake one hard to fish the left side. We'd always 946 00:50:33.079 --> 00:50:35.000 get our lines hung up in the trees, so no 947 00:50:35.039 --> 00:50:37.760 one ever hardly fished that side. Let's use the artificial 948 00:50:37.800 --> 00:50:42.239 bade and casting sideways. The fish were biting like crazy 949 00:50:42.320 --> 00:50:46.760 that day, everyone catching. The day went fast as always, 950 00:50:47.039 --> 00:50:50.239 there was a beautiful place, and the fishing slowed down 951 00:50:50.320 --> 00:50:52.599 out of nowhere. So we all set up for the 952 00:50:52.679 --> 00:50:57.440 night fishing, part we'd never done before. Out there anyway, 953 00:50:58.039 --> 00:51:00.480 slip bobbers on the mint buckets full of bait. We 954 00:51:00.519 --> 00:51:04.639 switched over for crappie fishing. Well. We were catching one 955 00:51:04.679 --> 00:51:07.880 here and there. In about twelve midnight, the cows got 956 00:51:07.920 --> 00:51:09.679 up the left out of nowhere to the lake too. 957 00:51:10.360 --> 00:51:12.639 We thought nothing of it and kept fishing. About an 958 00:51:12.679 --> 00:51:14.920 hour later, up falling up the ridge, and we heard 959 00:51:14.960 --> 00:51:19.360 something coming our way, moving slow, snapping, cracking, moving evasively, 960 00:51:19.800 --> 00:51:24.719 almost methodical, we thought, dear, kept on fishing, even though 961 00:51:24.760 --> 00:51:26.519 I had a weird feeling come over, I mean, like, 962 00:51:27.199 --> 00:51:30.679 what if it's something else? I quickly shrugged that off 963 00:51:30.719 --> 00:51:33.920 and fished on. Well. Everything shut down about forty five 964 00:51:33.920 --> 00:51:37.440 minutes later to a halt. And I hated when that happened, 965 00:51:37.440 --> 00:51:40.000 so I thought, well, I'll go over and fish the 966 00:51:40.079 --> 00:51:43.119 left side. I knew where if our foothole was where 967 00:51:43.119 --> 00:51:46.199 i'd catch a couple more if all left field always did. 968 00:51:46.760 --> 00:51:48.920 So I decided to make my move over, grab my 969 00:51:48.920 --> 00:51:51.159 pole in the metal bucket and the lanner. That way 970 00:51:51.280 --> 00:51:53.320 we'd have all the light to see what we were doing. 971 00:51:53.920 --> 00:51:56.599 We had night sticks on our bobbers anyway, so well 972 00:51:56.639 --> 00:51:58.880 as I got to the turn to hit the left side, 973 00:51:59.079 --> 00:52:01.639 I'll put the lantern on. Who I'd be fishing went 974 00:52:01.639 --> 00:52:04.480 out of nowhere. Light hit on a creature that was 975 00:52:04.480 --> 00:52:08.199 crouched down on two legs, not four or threey but two. 976 00:52:08.960 --> 00:52:11.159 It had an arm in the water and was scooping water. 977 00:52:11.880 --> 00:52:13.840 When it realized it had a light on it, it 978 00:52:13.960 --> 00:52:16.079 slowly pulled its hand up out of the water, and 979 00:52:16.159 --> 00:52:19.440 I saw the water dripping slowly from its hand. It 980 00:52:19.559 --> 00:52:21.800 slowly turned its head over its left shoulder to glance 981 00:52:21.840 --> 00:52:25.239 at me, started growling, let out a low curdling mouth 982 00:52:25.320 --> 00:52:28.760 opening growl slowly. It opened its eyes. There were a 983 00:52:28.760 --> 00:52:32.400 wicked yellow colored spur was layered maybe three quarter of 984 00:52:32.440 --> 00:52:34.880 an inches, some kind of thick and a beautiful cinnamon 985 00:52:34.920 --> 00:52:38.360 color and four K nine teeth i'd seen as well 986 00:52:38.480 --> 00:52:41.440 the mouthful of other teeth, all muscle. This thing was 987 00:52:41.440 --> 00:52:44.840 crouched four feet or so, so I figured later probably 988 00:52:44.840 --> 00:52:46.440 if it stood up, it'd be seven and seven and 989 00:52:46.440 --> 00:52:49.079 a half feet tall and maybe four hundred or more pounds. 990 00:52:49.960 --> 00:52:52.880 It was broad shouldered, but not huge huge like others 991 00:52:52.920 --> 00:52:55.960 are described, but still very impressive to say the least. 992 00:52:56.960 --> 00:53:00.719 I was frozen stiff with fear. He turned to its right, 993 00:53:00.960 --> 00:53:02.480 gave a look out of the woods, and then let 994 00:53:02.480 --> 00:53:04.119 out a breath of air at the end of its growl, 995 00:53:04.559 --> 00:53:07.239 as if it were disgusted. It had been seen. It 996 00:53:07.320 --> 00:53:09.360 had come down off that ridge and didn't have a 997 00:53:09.400 --> 00:53:11.599 clue we were there. We were always quiet up there, 998 00:53:11.920 --> 00:53:16.039 hardly talked t while fishing, so this creature had no clue. 999 00:53:16.239 --> 00:53:18.519 So we must have disrupted its schedule by being there, 1000 00:53:18.559 --> 00:53:21.679 clearly at this time of night. I slowly came to 1001 00:53:21.719 --> 00:53:23.920 my senses after clearing my mind what I'd just seen. 1002 00:53:24.199 --> 00:53:27.239 Bear was present now for all of us involved. This 1003 00:53:27.320 --> 00:53:29.239 creature was still kind of giveing me a half look, 1004 00:53:29.280 --> 00:53:31.320 as it was also looking toward the woods in front 1005 00:53:31.320 --> 00:53:33.960 of it. It's only about three feet away. That's how 1006 00:53:34.000 --> 00:53:36.400 it came down. I knew at this moment it couldn't 1007 00:53:36.440 --> 00:53:38.679 smell us. We were down wind, and the whole time, 1008 00:53:39.519 --> 00:53:42.039 because it was creeping down. I heard my dad say, Junior, 1009 00:53:42.119 --> 00:53:45.239 what is that? Do you see that? My uncles said 1010 00:53:45.280 --> 00:53:47.360 the same thing as well. I finally broke free from 1011 00:53:47.360 --> 00:53:50.559 the fear, and I yelled down the mountain now, and 1012 00:53:50.639 --> 00:53:52.920 I bolted toward the edge. I look over the creature, 1013 00:53:52.960 --> 00:53:56.199 still staring half at us, half toward the woods. Looked 1014 00:53:56.199 --> 00:53:58.480 to the edge, I see my family jump over. I 1015 00:53:58.559 --> 00:54:00.159 was right behind him as they hit the ground that 1016 00:54:00.239 --> 00:54:04.239 downslope running I hit shortly after running past him. I 1017 00:54:04.320 --> 00:54:06.280 lifted the light only to slow me down a little bit, 1018 00:54:06.280 --> 00:54:08.840 and they all crashed in the back of me, and 1019 00:54:09.360 --> 00:54:11.679 all fell over down the hill, lander and still in 1020 00:54:11.719 --> 00:54:14.960 my hand. I was already tired and drained, feeling hopeless 1021 00:54:15.000 --> 00:54:17.880 get bumped from what I'd just seen. I look back, 1022 00:54:18.400 --> 00:54:21.400 nothing behind us. I'm still thinking any second now, it's 1023 00:54:21.440 --> 00:54:23.920 going to grab one of us. I was remembering stories 1024 00:54:23.960 --> 00:54:26.039 from my youth and my earlier encounter as a kid 1025 00:54:26.079 --> 00:54:29.440 coming home from school. We struggled to get to their feet. 1026 00:54:29.519 --> 00:54:31.519 Seemed like hours getting to the bottom of the hill. 1027 00:54:32.079 --> 00:54:34.320 Finally we did make it to the car, everyone on 1028 00:54:34.480 --> 00:54:37.719 hands and knees, sucking wind to breath, asking each other 1029 00:54:37.760 --> 00:54:40.599 what the hell that was. We just saw others saying, 1030 00:54:40.599 --> 00:54:43.000 you know, damn well what we just saw and you 1031 00:54:43.039 --> 00:54:44.800 put the light on that thing. We all knew what 1032 00:54:44.880 --> 00:54:47.760 it was, but we agreed not to say a word. 1033 00:54:47.840 --> 00:54:50.000 We didn't want people come out here stalking this thing 1034 00:54:50.039 --> 00:54:52.440 on Tom's land, as it was his land, not ours. 1035 00:54:52.559 --> 00:54:55.480 Needless to say, all the gear was left behind except 1036 00:54:55.519 --> 00:54:57.760 the lanner. My uncle Mike went back later and got 1037 00:54:57.800 --> 00:55:00.840 it armed. Of course, after that incident, it was all 1038 00:55:00.920 --> 00:55:04.159 confirmed for me after that night about my earlier incidents 1039 00:55:04.159 --> 00:55:06.719 in life, like the one walking home from school along 1040 00:55:06.880 --> 00:55:11.000 Indian Man. But now knew what that was again that 1041 00:55:11.079 --> 00:55:13.280 I'd seen that day on the way home from school. 1042 00:55:14.760 --> 00:55:17.159 She could say, I've been blessed to cursed in life, 1043 00:55:17.599 --> 00:55:19.760 but either way it's all worth it and I wouldn't 1044 00:55:19.800 --> 00:55:23.199 take any of it back. Every bit of this story 1045 00:55:23.360 --> 00:55:30.400 is true. Signed JD. L Ufo, Sidings in the Swamp. 1046 00:55:31.880 --> 00:55:34.400 Good afternoon, My husband and I are over the road. 1047 00:55:34.400 --> 00:55:36.920 Truck drivers and listen to videos on your channel on 1048 00:55:36.960 --> 00:55:41.519 our deliveries. We're from waycross Ware, County, Georgia, and we 1049 00:55:41.559 --> 00:55:45.400 have both had UFO sidings. He's actually had what I 1050 00:55:45.440 --> 00:55:49.039 would call more than a sighting, a possible encounter. We 1051 00:55:49.119 --> 00:55:51.760 wanted to write in to tell you his story. Feel 1052 00:55:51.800 --> 00:55:53.840 free to share this with your listeners on the channel 1053 00:55:53.880 --> 00:55:56.840 as well. No names were mentioned in this story, so 1054 00:55:56.880 --> 00:56:00.280 you do not have to worry about anonymity. I wanted 1055 00:56:00.280 --> 00:56:01.719 to write in for a while now and tell you 1056 00:56:01.800 --> 00:56:04.880 these stories, especially his, as so many details in his 1057 00:56:05.000 --> 00:56:06.880 encounter alive with those of the missing four to one 1058 00:56:06.960 --> 00:56:10.639 one cases. But while watching your videos today, we heard 1059 00:56:10.679 --> 00:56:12.559 you say that a lot of these cases involved are 1060 00:56:12.599 --> 00:56:16.119 in close proximity to water. Well, when I heard that, 1061 00:56:16.320 --> 00:56:17.960 I decided I wanted to go ahead and send our 1062 00:56:18.000 --> 00:56:20.320 stories into you as soon as possible, because I'm not 1063 00:56:20.400 --> 00:56:22.960 sure if you know where County Georgia is located or 1064 00:56:23.039 --> 00:56:27.000 anything about it. We are near the Georgia Florida line, 1065 00:56:27.079 --> 00:56:29.920 and in our county, stretching into Florida, is a large 1066 00:56:29.920 --> 00:56:33.199 swamp six hundred and forty eight square miles called the 1067 00:56:33.239 --> 00:56:37.159 Okee Finoke. That's not all. Not only do we have 1068 00:56:37.199 --> 00:56:40.360 the Okefinoke, we live in close proximity to the Atlantic 1069 00:56:40.360 --> 00:56:43.800 Ocean and have the Satilla River that zigzags through the 1070 00:56:43.840 --> 00:56:47.159 northern part of the county. I've seen something, and my 1071 00:56:47.280 --> 00:56:50.559 husband's cousin has also seen something in the same exact 1072 00:56:50.599 --> 00:56:53.440 area on what we believe is the same exact night 1073 00:56:53.760 --> 00:56:56.360 before we ever even met each other. But none of 1074 00:56:56.360 --> 00:56:59.360 our stories compared to my husband's. Let me say, my 1075 00:56:59.440 --> 00:57:01.960 husband is not the type to make things up for tension, 1076 00:57:02.119 --> 00:57:05.360 not at all. We're both no nonsense type of people. 1077 00:57:06.880 --> 00:57:11.639 What follows is his story in his words. Back in 1078 00:57:11.679 --> 00:57:15.159 the summer of nineteen ninety four, around seven thirty pm, 1079 00:57:15.639 --> 00:57:18.639 right across the road from my mother's house, myself and 1080 00:57:18.719 --> 00:57:21.960 five other guys around fourteen years old, and my cousin 1081 00:57:22.079 --> 00:57:25.119 and five more guys around eighteen years old were playing 1082 00:57:25.159 --> 00:57:28.039 basketball in an open field right across the road from 1083 00:57:28.039 --> 00:57:31.880 my mother's house. The field we're in is not in 1084 00:57:31.920 --> 00:57:35.039 a secluded area people are often seen walking around at 1085 00:57:35.079 --> 00:57:38.760 any given time. It is very well populated inside the 1086 00:57:38.800 --> 00:57:41.280 city limits and can be seen from almost all the 1087 00:57:41.320 --> 00:57:45.079 guy's homes out there with us. On this night, the 1088 00:57:45.119 --> 00:57:47.360 sun had just went down when I noticed a light 1089 00:57:47.519 --> 00:57:49.360 maybe one hundred and twenty five feet in the air. 1090 00:57:50.159 --> 00:57:52.639 I look up and put my head back down and disbelief, 1091 00:57:53.400 --> 00:57:56.559 trying to convince myself that it was nothing. That's when 1092 00:57:56.599 --> 00:58:01.039 I hear another guy yell, y'all look at that. I shout, 1093 00:58:01.280 --> 00:58:05.400 I knew I saw something. This causes everyone to look up. 1094 00:58:06.960 --> 00:58:09.559 Now that I'm looking back up, I noticed that it 1095 00:58:09.599 --> 00:58:12.599 isn't just a light. What I'm now looking at is 1096 00:58:12.639 --> 00:58:16.239 a black, triangular shaped object about the width of five 1097 00:58:16.320 --> 00:58:20.280 mobile homes. It was floating over mobile homes and pine trees, 1098 00:58:21.039 --> 00:58:23.320 the length of about eighty feet long and a height 1099 00:58:23.360 --> 00:58:28.000 of about twenty feet, with four square light orange colored lights, 1100 00:58:28.159 --> 00:58:30.360 one in each corner of the triangle and one in 1101 00:58:30.400 --> 00:58:35.119 the middle, seemingly floating just over the pine trees. I 1102 00:58:35.239 --> 00:58:38.559 noticed that there isn't a sound. Everything is completely silent 1103 00:58:38.599 --> 00:58:43.199 around us, including this massive UFO flying overhead. Now the 1104 00:58:43.280 --> 00:58:45.400 guys are making a sound. We're all looking up at 1105 00:58:45.440 --> 00:58:49.599 this huge object floating overhead. At this time, I'm thinking 1106 00:58:50.119 --> 00:58:53.400 I'll get something so big floating in the air make 1107 00:58:53.519 --> 00:58:57.960 no sound whatsoever. After what felt like no longer than 1108 00:58:58.000 --> 00:59:01.400 thirty seconds, trying to figure out exactly what we're looking at, 1109 00:59:02.079 --> 00:59:04.000 I hear one of the guys uncles, who was walking 1110 00:59:04.000 --> 00:59:06.199 toward us from down the road, yelled to us, y'all 1111 00:59:06.199 --> 00:59:09.960 see that, y'all get in the house. After I see him, 1112 00:59:10.000 --> 00:59:12.000 I take one look back and I'm now looking at 1113 00:59:12.039 --> 00:59:14.440 the back of the triangular shaped object, and then we 1114 00:59:14.480 --> 00:59:17.840 all take off fronting to our homes around the neighborhood. 1115 00:59:18.719 --> 00:59:21.199 As we're running towards our house, my cousin and I 1116 00:59:21.400 --> 00:59:24.199 notice all the lights in the house are on. We 1117 00:59:24.280 --> 00:59:26.320 run in the house in a panic, tell my mom 1118 00:59:26.360 --> 00:59:30.119 and his mom what we saw. They angrily interrupt us, 1119 00:59:30.159 --> 00:59:32.360 asking us where we've been, yelling at us that we 1120 00:59:32.400 --> 00:59:34.079 had not been in the field and they had been 1121 00:59:34.119 --> 00:59:37.480 looking for us. Mind you, the field we were in 1122 00:59:37.639 --> 00:59:40.599 is literally across the road from our house. They could 1123 00:59:40.599 --> 00:59:42.639 walk out onto the porch and see the wide open 1124 00:59:42.639 --> 00:59:45.039 field from there where we were standing while looking at 1125 00:59:45.039 --> 00:59:47.480 the UFO, where they should have been able to see 1126 00:59:47.559 --> 00:59:51.239 us without even stepping off the porch. Now, we had 1127 00:59:51.239 --> 00:59:54.079 a rule in our house, and the same rule applied 1128 00:59:54.119 --> 00:59:56.079 to most of the guys who were playing basketball with 1129 00:59:56.159 --> 00:59:59.599 us that night, and that rule is we must be 1130 00:59:59.639 --> 01:00:03.239 in the house before the streetlights come on. Street lights 1131 01:00:03.280 --> 01:00:06.000 come on about the time we saw the UFO floating overhead. 1132 01:00:06.480 --> 01:00:09.039 Remember I said that we noticed the UFO at around 1133 01:00:09.039 --> 01:00:11.440 seven thirty pm and had only been standing there staring 1134 01:00:11.480 --> 01:00:15.920 at it for around thirty seconds. Well, imagine our surprise 1135 01:00:16.400 --> 01:00:18.480 when we hear mothers tell us that it's close to 1136 01:00:18.519 --> 01:00:22.639 twelve am. The following morning, all the guys who saw 1137 01:00:22.679 --> 01:00:25.719 the UFO and their parents met outside of mine my 1138 01:00:25.800 --> 01:00:29.079 cousin's house and basically had a neighborhood meeting about everything 1139 01:00:29.079 --> 01:00:32.800 that happened the night before. Turns out, none of the 1140 01:00:32.840 --> 01:00:34.800 parents that looked for us that night saw us in 1141 01:00:34.840 --> 01:00:37.800 the field. Most of the parents could look out their 1142 01:00:37.800 --> 01:00:40.760 windows and see the field from their homes, and all 1143 01:00:40.760 --> 01:00:42.639 the guys out there came in the house that night 1144 01:00:42.679 --> 01:00:45.000 around four or four and a half hours later than 1145 01:00:45.000 --> 01:00:48.960 they thought it was. I'm not sure why none of 1146 01:00:48.960 --> 01:00:50.920 our parents could see us that night in the field. 1147 01:00:51.840 --> 01:00:53.800 All ten to twelve of us were in a very 1148 01:00:53.800 --> 01:00:57.480 open field playing basketball when we saw the UFO floating overhead. 1149 01:00:58.840 --> 01:01:01.559 As I said, many of the parents could simply look 1150 01:01:01.559 --> 01:01:03.280 out of their windows that night and see us in 1151 01:01:03.320 --> 01:01:06.599 that field. When the guy's uncle who came up the 1152 01:01:06.639 --> 01:01:08.400 road who yelled at us to get inside and out 1153 01:01:08.400 --> 01:01:11.239 from under the UFO. He came from the opposite side 1154 01:01:11.239 --> 01:01:13.960 of the field from where my mom lived. I'm not 1155 01:01:14.000 --> 01:01:16.280 sure if we were cloaked in some way from one 1156 01:01:16.320 --> 01:01:18.320 side of the field and that's how the uncle who 1157 01:01:18.320 --> 01:01:20.079 came from the other side could see us and my 1158 01:01:20.239 --> 01:01:23.239 mom and aunt coodn't from our house, or if when 1159 01:01:23.239 --> 01:01:25.280 he yelled at us to get inside, he created some 1160 01:01:25.360 --> 01:01:28.360 type of distraction for whoever or whatever it was cloaking 1161 01:01:28.400 --> 01:01:30.679 us and broke the spell, for lack of better terms, 1162 01:01:30.840 --> 01:01:33.440 that hit us from our parents' view, Or if we 1163 01:01:33.599 --> 01:01:36.159 just simply weren't there at all like we thought we were, 1164 01:01:37.039 --> 01:01:40.559 as if we were transported somewhere else without our knowledge. 1165 01:01:40.719 --> 01:01:43.320 All I do know is none of the parents could 1166 01:01:43.320 --> 01:01:45.360 see us in that field until we were yelled at 1167 01:01:45.360 --> 01:01:47.639 to get inside by one of the guy's uncles, and 1168 01:01:47.679 --> 01:01:50.320 that we all lost about four hours of time that night. 1169 01:01:51.440 --> 01:01:53.679 As the years went on, all the guys would talk 1170 01:01:53.719 --> 01:01:56.079 about what we saw that night when we ran into 1171 01:01:56.159 --> 01:01:59.840 each other. I never really spoke to my cousin about it, though, 1172 01:02:00.440 --> 01:02:02.440 but as adults, I asked him one day did he 1173 01:02:02.519 --> 01:02:05.360 remember it. He told me he did, and that he 1174 01:02:05.400 --> 01:02:07.719 and the older guy saw something that neither I nor 1175 01:02:07.760 --> 01:02:11.000 any of the younger guys had seen. In the back 1176 01:02:11.039 --> 01:02:13.559 of the field, there's a huge oak tree. It grows 1177 01:02:13.599 --> 01:02:16.079 different than the other trees in that area. The trunk 1178 01:02:16.119 --> 01:02:18.559 of this tree appears to be twisted, as if someone 1179 01:02:18.599 --> 01:02:21.199 grabbed it from the branches and twisted the entire tree 1180 01:02:21.280 --> 01:02:23.360 until the whole trunk looked like when you twist a 1181 01:02:23.519 --> 01:02:28.000 washcloth to bring water out of it. Also, nothing grows 1182 01:02:28.039 --> 01:02:31.760 around this specific tree, an entire circle about ten feet 1183 01:02:31.760 --> 01:02:35.280 out from the tree. No other plants grew, no grass, weeds, 1184 01:02:35.360 --> 01:02:39.480 or anything else, only sand. That night, in front of 1185 01:02:39.480 --> 01:02:42.079 this tree, my cousin said they saw a battle of 1186 01:02:42.199 --> 01:02:46.440 light getting bigger and bigger. What he said to him 1187 01:02:47.119 --> 01:02:50.760 appeared to be a portal with what he called a 1188 01:02:50.760 --> 01:02:54.159 bigfoot slowly appearing as the circle of light grew larger. 1189 01:02:54.880 --> 01:02:56.599 And that's when he heard someone yell to us to 1190 01:02:56.599 --> 01:02:59.920 get inside our houses, and the portal and the bigfoot disappeared. 1191 01:03:01.559 --> 01:03:04.039 None of the younger guys saw this, but all of 1192 01:03:04.039 --> 01:03:08.119 the older guys had. Until then, I had never heard 1193 01:03:08.159 --> 01:03:11.239 of bigfoot, nothing like that was on television yet, and 1194 01:03:11.280 --> 01:03:14.000 I'd heard of UFOs before, but have never seen anything 1195 01:03:14.079 --> 01:03:16.440 like that, and hadn't looked into it much at all. 1196 01:03:17.920 --> 01:03:20.159 There's nothing that I had heard or seen prior to 1197 01:03:20.199 --> 01:03:22.800 this encounter. It would have influenced what we had all 1198 01:03:22.840 --> 01:03:25.920 seen that night or our story in any way, from 1199 01:03:25.960 --> 01:03:30.199 the way the UFO looked, the silence, the portal, the bigfoot, 1200 01:03:30.639 --> 01:03:35.199 our disappearance or loss of time. Thank you for listening 1201 01:03:35.239 --> 01:03:37.920 to this story and for all that you do. As 1202 01:03:37.920 --> 01:03:39.360 I said, you seem to be one of the few 1203 01:03:39.360 --> 01:03:42.039 people taking this seriously and handling these cases with the 1204 01:03:42.119 --> 01:03:45.920 victims in mind, not sensationalizing the cases or adding things 1205 01:03:46.000 --> 01:03:50.960 to them for entertainment, and that's so very important. Sincerely, 1206 01:03:51.480 --> 01:04:00.119 M and T. Three experiences from Eve Hi Eve here. 1207 01:04:00.920 --> 01:04:02.679 This experience happened to me when I was in my 1208 01:04:02.719 --> 01:04:05.519 early twenties. I used to live in a small town 1209 01:04:05.559 --> 01:04:09.320 in Puerto Rico called Comorio. I had a house on 1210 01:04:09.400 --> 01:04:12.079 top of my parents house, which in Puerto Rico is 1211 01:04:12.119 --> 01:04:14.280 considered a separate house, but in the United States it 1212 01:04:14.280 --> 01:04:17.679 would be considered a duplex. I guess my house had 1213 01:04:17.719 --> 01:04:20.840 a separate staircase that led to the outside. To go 1214 01:04:20.880 --> 01:04:22.559 to those stairs, you would have to open the front 1215 01:04:22.599 --> 01:04:25.079 door of my house, walk out onto the balcony, which 1216 01:04:25.119 --> 01:04:29.559 was very long, and then go downstairs. Now you're outside 1217 01:04:29.559 --> 01:04:31.920 in the front yard. If you turned left then made 1218 01:04:31.960 --> 01:04:34.119 another left, you would go to a balcony in my 1219 01:04:34.159 --> 01:04:36.440 parents' house, and there was the entrance to their home. 1220 01:04:38.039 --> 01:04:40.679 Every evening, before going to bed, I would visit my 1221 01:04:40.719 --> 01:04:42.599 parents to check on them and to say good night. 1222 01:04:43.280 --> 01:04:47.559 This was something I did every night. One night, after 1223 01:04:47.599 --> 01:04:50.360 watching TV in the living room with my husband, I 1224 01:04:50.440 --> 01:04:53.039 decided to go to bed. I wanted to read a 1225 01:04:53.039 --> 01:04:56.280 book and then go to sleep. My husband asked me 1226 01:04:56.320 --> 01:04:58.039 if I was going to say good night to my parents. 1227 01:04:58.280 --> 01:04:59.840 I told him that I really felt I wanted to 1228 01:04:59.880 --> 01:05:02.519 let down at that moment, and besides, i'd seen them 1229 01:05:02.519 --> 01:05:05.079 at about four point thirty that afternoon and they seemed fine. 1230 01:05:07.199 --> 01:05:10.480 So I added to the bedroom. I started fixing the 1231 01:05:10.480 --> 01:05:14.000 pillows in the blankets. I closed the windows in my bedroom, 1232 01:05:14.440 --> 01:05:16.960 turned the lights off, turned on the lamp that was 1233 01:05:17.000 --> 01:05:19.360 by my side of the bed, looked at the clock 1234 01:05:19.719 --> 01:05:22.639 and noticed it was nine to eleven PM. Sat in 1235 01:05:22.679 --> 01:05:26.599 bed and slowly laid down. As soon as my head 1236 01:05:26.639 --> 01:05:29.760 touched the pillow, I felt I was pulled out upward 1237 01:05:29.760 --> 01:05:32.000 from the bed and found myself standing in front of 1238 01:05:32.039 --> 01:05:36.039 the bed. Everything looked smoky, like when there's a mist 1239 01:05:36.079 --> 01:05:41.320 outside during a human fall. Morning. I felt confused, didn't 1240 01:05:41.320 --> 01:05:45.920 I just lay down? What happened? All these questions travel 1241 01:05:45.960 --> 01:05:48.039 through my head in less than a second, and when 1242 01:05:48.079 --> 01:05:51.119 I looked down, I was laying in bed, well, my 1243 01:05:51.199 --> 01:05:56.559 body was laying in bed. A panic. Did I die? 1244 01:05:56.800 --> 01:06:00.000 I was so confused. I can't even explain the level 1245 01:06:00.159 --> 01:06:04.000 confusion I was feeling at this time. I felt somebody 1246 01:06:04.079 --> 01:06:07.320 or something was standing next to me, and somehow, whatever 1247 01:06:07.400 --> 01:06:11.960 this being was, it talked to me. I heard its voice, 1248 01:06:12.119 --> 01:06:16.199 but it was inside my head. I don't know if 1249 01:06:16.199 --> 01:06:20.440 this makes sense, but it was like communication through thoughts. 1250 01:06:20.920 --> 01:06:22.800 I tried to look to my left where I felt 1251 01:06:22.800 --> 01:06:25.400 this being was standing, but I couldn't really see what 1252 01:06:25.440 --> 01:06:29.360 it was. I know it did not scare me. I 1253 01:06:29.360 --> 01:06:32.039 asked what happened, and the being told me to follow him, 1254 01:06:32.760 --> 01:06:37.199 so I did. We go out of the bedroom, walked 1255 01:06:37.239 --> 01:06:40.000 through the hallway. We passed the living room where my 1256 01:06:40.039 --> 01:06:43.800 husband was still sitting watching TV. I looked at him 1257 01:06:43.800 --> 01:06:46.000 and lifted up my hands away at him, but he 1258 01:06:46.039 --> 01:06:51.079 didn't see me. We kept walking. We walked through the 1259 01:06:51.079 --> 01:06:53.679 balcony and then went down the stairs into the front yard. 1260 01:06:54.639 --> 01:06:58.000 We went inside my parents' balcony and we went through 1261 01:06:58.000 --> 01:07:00.000 the door, and I looked on my mom and dad 1262 01:07:00.199 --> 01:07:03.920 seated on the couches watching the TV. I looked at 1263 01:07:03.960 --> 01:07:06.440 the TV and noticed they were watching a boxing match. 1264 01:07:07.639 --> 01:07:09.480 I stared at my pants for a few seconds, but 1265 01:07:09.519 --> 01:07:13.360 they did not notice I was there. The being asked 1266 01:07:13.360 --> 01:07:16.199 me to come and look through the window. When you 1267 01:07:16.239 --> 01:07:18.039 look through the window, you could see the river in 1268 01:07:18.079 --> 01:07:21.119 a mountain that was across the river. That night, it 1269 01:07:21.159 --> 01:07:24.480 was dark. I looked up into the sky and there 1270 01:07:24.480 --> 01:07:28.800 were twelve moons forming a circle. All of them started 1271 01:07:28.840 --> 01:07:32.320 moving and they made triangle shapes. So there was a 1272 01:07:32.320 --> 01:07:35.360 group of three moons that made a triangle shape, another 1273 01:07:35.400 --> 01:07:37.639 group of three moons that made a triangle shape, and 1274 01:07:37.639 --> 01:07:41.400 so on. When I saw these, I felt scared, but 1275 01:07:41.400 --> 01:07:43.840 I couldn't understand what it meant and what was happening. 1276 01:07:44.880 --> 01:07:47.039 Then I heard screaming and crying to my left, and 1277 01:07:47.119 --> 01:07:49.840 I looked and there was another mountain to the left, 1278 01:07:49.920 --> 01:07:52.800 and it looked like behind it was fire and a war. 1279 01:07:53.760 --> 01:07:56.320 I heard women and children crying and screaming. I heard 1280 01:07:56.320 --> 01:08:01.400 gunshots and explosions behind the mountain. Every ting looked orange. 1281 01:08:01.679 --> 01:08:06.039 I felt like crying. I was really scared. I looked 1282 01:08:06.079 --> 01:08:07.679 to my right to see the being next to me, 1283 01:08:07.800 --> 01:08:11.000 but I couldn't see him. I asked him, what is this? 1284 01:08:11.400 --> 01:08:14.199 Why am I looking at this? What does this mean? 1285 01:08:15.639 --> 01:08:19.760 He replied, figure it out? And at that very moment, 1286 01:08:20.279 --> 01:08:23.960 I felt like I fell abruptly into my bed, sat 1287 01:08:24.000 --> 01:08:26.119 down in bed, and I looked to my left. The 1288 01:08:26.199 --> 01:08:28.079 light on the lamp was still on. I looked at 1289 01:08:28.119 --> 01:08:32.720 the clock. It was nine thirteen pm. I immediately stood 1290 01:08:32.800 --> 01:08:34.359 up and went running to the living room, where my 1291 01:08:34.439 --> 01:08:37.760 husband was still watching TV. He looked at me and smiled, 1292 01:08:37.800 --> 01:08:39.399 and I was looking at him with a face that 1293 01:08:39.479 --> 01:08:43.199 red I just saw a ghost. He asked if everything 1294 01:08:43.279 --> 01:08:46.720 was okay? I said, did you just see me walk 1295 01:08:46.760 --> 01:08:50.119 past you? He said, didn't you just say you were 1296 01:08:50.159 --> 01:08:51.880 going to bed because you wanted to read a book. 1297 01:08:52.920 --> 01:08:56.119 I replied, yes, But did you just see me go 1298 01:08:56.199 --> 01:08:59.600 outside or something? He said that he couldn't understand what 1299 01:08:59.640 --> 01:09:02.920 I was trying to say, so I told him never mind. 1300 01:09:03.319 --> 01:09:06.279 I opened the door and I went downstairs quickly. I 1301 01:09:06.319 --> 01:09:08.640 opened my parents' front door, and there were my parents 1302 01:09:08.720 --> 01:09:11.600 sitting in the living room watching a boxing match. I 1303 01:09:11.600 --> 01:09:14.920 couldn't believe it. They were exactly in the same position 1304 01:09:14.960 --> 01:09:16.800 I'd seen them in a few minutes ago. During that 1305 01:09:16.880 --> 01:09:20.520 bizarre experience. My mom and dad looked at me and smiled. 1306 01:09:21.279 --> 01:09:23.159 My mom said, we thought you were not coming to 1307 01:09:23.199 --> 01:09:26.800 say good night. I said, did you guys just see 1308 01:09:26.840 --> 01:09:30.319 me like a few minutes ago. They shook their head no, 1309 01:09:30.479 --> 01:09:32.319 and my mom said that the last time they saw 1310 01:09:32.359 --> 01:09:34.800 me was about four point thirty that afternoon, and she 1311 01:09:34.880 --> 01:09:36.600 thought that was because it was late and I was 1312 01:09:36.640 --> 01:09:40.720 not coming to say good night. I was so, so, 1313 01:09:40.720 --> 01:09:43.760 so confused. I had it to the window and I 1314 01:09:43.800 --> 01:09:46.880 looked into the sky. But there wasn't anything strange in 1315 01:09:46.880 --> 01:09:50.079 the sky. Obviously, it was just a regular sky. It 1316 01:09:50.079 --> 01:09:53.600 was one moon, like it's supposed to be. I looked 1317 01:09:53.600 --> 01:09:55.720 to my left, towards the mountain that was on fire, 1318 01:09:56.159 --> 01:09:58.880 but everything was fine, dark as it should have been, 1319 01:09:59.399 --> 01:10:02.600 quiet as a sh should have been. I put my 1320 01:10:02.640 --> 01:10:04.880 hands on my head and I looked at my parents again. 1321 01:10:05.920 --> 01:10:08.479 They were looking at me like I was losing my mind. 1322 01:10:08.960 --> 01:10:12.720 I felt like I was. I told them to forget it, 1323 01:10:13.159 --> 01:10:15.720 that I must have had a dream or something. I 1324 01:10:15.760 --> 01:10:17.640 hugged and kissed him good night and went back to 1325 01:10:17.680 --> 01:10:19.439 my house to explain to my husband what had just 1326 01:10:19.520 --> 01:10:22.159 happened to me. He told me that I must have 1327 01:10:22.199 --> 01:10:25.119 been dreaming. I do not believe at all that I 1328 01:10:25.159 --> 01:10:29.239 was dreaming. I know this sounds very weird and bizarre, 1329 01:10:29.720 --> 01:10:32.279 but this truly happened to me, and I know it 1330 01:10:32.319 --> 01:10:36.199 was not a dream. As of today, I have absolutely 1331 01:10:36.239 --> 01:10:38.359 no idea what the moon's and everything that was happening 1332 01:10:38.439 --> 01:10:43.039 during that experience mean. If anyone has any idea what 1333 01:10:43.079 --> 01:10:46.359 this could mean, please let me know. It's been about 1334 01:10:46.399 --> 01:10:52.640 twenty years since this happened to me. Hi Eve, here again. 1335 01:10:53.239 --> 01:10:56.680 This is my second story. I usually don't share these 1336 01:10:56.720 --> 01:11:01.720 because I'm afraid of being laughed at. Unfortunately, people immediately 1337 01:11:01.760 --> 01:11:05.359 think you're crazy, But here I go. Whether people think 1338 01:11:05.399 --> 01:11:07.319 these are true or not, it makes no difference to 1339 01:11:07.359 --> 01:11:11.359 me because I know what I've lived. As I said before, 1340 01:11:11.960 --> 01:11:13.600 I used to live in a small town in Puerto 1341 01:11:13.680 --> 01:11:17.720 Rico called Camerillo. At the time, I was married and 1342 01:11:17.760 --> 01:11:21.239 my husband was working a night shift. Every night I 1343 01:11:21.239 --> 01:11:23.199 would accompany him to his car to say goodbye to 1344 01:11:23.279 --> 01:11:26.279 him before leaving to go work. Because there were a 1345 01:11:26.279 --> 01:11:29.279 lot of UFO sightings in Puerto Rico. We would always 1346 01:11:29.359 --> 01:11:32.760 look up into the sky looking for lights or things moving, etc. 1347 01:11:33.960 --> 01:11:39.239 We would often laugh, like of mocking the UFO phenomenon. However, 1348 01:11:39.600 --> 01:11:41.800 one of these nights, when he was already in the 1349 01:11:41.800 --> 01:11:44.840 car ready to leave, I was giving him a kiss goodbye. 1350 01:11:45.680 --> 01:11:48.560 I looked up into the sky looking for strange things, 1351 01:11:48.960 --> 01:11:55.399 but like always, there wasn't anything out there. I looked up, left, right, everywhere, 1352 01:11:55.880 --> 01:11:59.840 but there wasn't anything strange. Surprisingly, when I was flowering 1353 01:11:59.880 --> 01:12:01.359 my I had back down to say goodbye to my 1354 01:12:01.399 --> 01:12:04.359 husband one more time. I noticed a beam of light, 1355 01:12:05.079 --> 01:12:08.760 really bright, kind of light blue color, coming from the sky, 1356 01:12:08.920 --> 01:12:12.239 and I immediately looked up again, but there wasn't anything anymore. 1357 01:12:13.000 --> 01:12:16.000 So I chuckled and said, tah, because I'm looking for 1358 01:12:16.039 --> 01:12:19.720 a UFO. I thought I saw something. Silly me. I 1359 01:12:19.760 --> 01:12:22.119 waved goodbye to my husband and headed to the backyard 1360 01:12:22.119 --> 01:12:25.880 where my mom was hanging clothes. Now, let me explain 1361 01:12:25.920 --> 01:12:29.279 a little bit about this scenario here. I come from 1362 01:12:29.319 --> 01:12:31.239 a poor family and we did not have a lot, 1363 01:12:31.399 --> 01:12:35.119 especially not a dryer. There were no laundermats in town either, 1364 01:12:35.560 --> 01:12:37.720 so we had to hang her clothes outside to dry. 1365 01:12:38.760 --> 01:12:40.960 My mom worked during the day and at night she 1366 01:12:40.960 --> 01:12:43.199 would do her laundry and hang it in the backyard, 1367 01:12:43.279 --> 01:12:46.319 which was out of an open field. So that night, 1368 01:12:46.880 --> 01:12:49.439 before i'd gone to say goodbye to my husband, she 1369 01:12:49.600 --> 01:12:51.439 told me that she was going to hang clothes in 1370 01:12:51.479 --> 01:12:54.199 the backyard. I told her that as soon as he 1371 01:12:54.279 --> 01:12:57.479 was gone, I'll go back there and help. Well, as 1372 01:12:57.520 --> 01:12:59.399 soon as he left, I had it back there, and 1373 01:12:59.520 --> 01:13:01.159 that's when I reached a point where I knew she 1374 01:13:01.199 --> 01:13:05.079 could hear me. I started talking. I said, Mom, I 1375 01:13:05.119 --> 01:13:08.079 was saying goodbye to Joe, not his real name, and 1376 01:13:08.119 --> 01:13:11.640 I was looking. I couldn't finish my sentence because when 1377 01:13:11.680 --> 01:13:13.960 I looked at my mom, she was looking up into 1378 01:13:14.000 --> 01:13:17.680 the sky in a frozen state. I just could not 1379 01:13:17.840 --> 01:13:21.000 believe it. She had seen something and I just missed it. 1380 01:13:21.479 --> 01:13:25.560 That's my luck, at least that's what I thought at 1381 01:13:25.560 --> 01:13:30.479 the moment. I started talking to her hysterically. Oh my god, Mom, 1382 01:13:30.600 --> 01:13:33.079 don't tell me you saw it. I thought I saw something, 1383 01:13:33.119 --> 01:13:35.079 but when I looked, it was too late. What did 1384 01:13:35.159 --> 01:13:40.000 you see? This was followed by complete silence. My mom 1385 01:13:40.119 --> 01:13:43.960 was still frozen in the same position. I was confused 1386 01:13:44.960 --> 01:13:48.439 was my mom, ignoring me. My mom is not that 1387 01:13:48.479 --> 01:13:51.840 type of person. She's also not dramatic or an attention seeker, 1388 01:13:51.920 --> 01:13:54.680 so her behavior at the moment was really bizarre to me. 1389 01:13:56.000 --> 01:14:02.079 A call to her mom, Mom, I finally raised my voice, Mom, 1390 01:14:02.399 --> 01:14:05.640 what's going on at that moment? She snapped out of 1391 01:14:05.640 --> 01:14:09.359 her frozen state and said, did you see that? I 1392 01:14:09.399 --> 01:14:13.000 looked at her, confused, What do you mean did I 1393 01:14:13.039 --> 01:14:17.079 see that? I asked? She said, well, I was hanging 1394 01:14:17.119 --> 01:14:19.840 clothes when I saw this light, blue light coming quickly 1395 01:14:19.880 --> 01:14:23.520 down towards me. As it came closer, I noticed there 1396 01:14:23.520 --> 01:14:27.279 were other lights too, These lights made of shape. It 1397 01:14:27.319 --> 01:14:30.479 was like a plate, like a disc. Then the lights 1398 01:14:30.520 --> 01:14:35.520 came down so fast and she paused, they almost shot 1399 01:14:35.560 --> 01:14:38.960 inside me. I felt like I couldn't move nor react. 1400 01:14:39.800 --> 01:14:44.359 Now you're here. Like I mentioned before, my mom is 1401 01:14:44.399 --> 01:14:47.359 not one to like getting attention or making up stories. 1402 01:14:48.039 --> 01:14:49.800 As a matter of fact, my mother is a very 1403 01:14:49.800 --> 01:14:52.279 respected person in my town, and everybody knows her as 1404 01:14:52.319 --> 01:14:57.279 a serious, respectable, and professional woman. This experience has followed 1405 01:14:57.279 --> 01:14:59.359 me all my life because I saw a flash of 1406 01:14:59.439 --> 01:15:02.000 light that night and the color was what my mother 1407 01:15:02.039 --> 01:15:06.199 had described to have founder like this and for her 1408 01:15:06.239 --> 01:15:08.319 to have told me what she said she saw and 1409 01:15:08.479 --> 01:15:16.119 experience has been shocking to me till this day. Hi 1410 01:15:16.560 --> 01:15:20.880 Eve again. This is the story of my youngest memory. 1411 01:15:22.359 --> 01:15:25.359 My life began, as I mentioned before, in a small 1412 01:15:25.399 --> 01:15:29.319 town in Puerto Rico called come Ario. When I was 1413 01:15:29.319 --> 01:15:32.560 four years old. I was still sleeping in a crib, 1414 01:15:33.239 --> 01:15:35.199 and I remember that as soon as my mom would 1415 01:15:35.199 --> 01:15:37.239 turn off the lights at night and leave the room, 1416 01:15:37.479 --> 01:15:40.239 three demons would appear hovering on top of my crib. 1417 01:15:41.000 --> 01:15:43.640 As soon as these demons would appear, a noise would 1418 01:15:43.640 --> 01:15:46.800 start coming from the kitchen towards my bedroom. The noise 1419 01:15:46.840 --> 01:15:49.079 sounded like a person had a wooden leg, and this 1420 01:15:49.119 --> 01:15:53.479 person was slowly approaching my room. This noise would terrify 1421 01:15:53.600 --> 01:15:55.880 me to the core, and I'm gonna be looking at 1422 01:15:55.880 --> 01:15:57.920 the door, which my mother would always leave a little 1423 01:15:57.920 --> 01:16:01.239 bit open, waiting for whatever this was to make its 1424 01:16:01.239 --> 01:16:05.039 appearance through that door. The kitchen was only about twenty 1425 01:16:05.039 --> 01:16:08.880 feet from my room. However, the thing coming from the kitchen, 1426 01:16:08.960 --> 01:16:10.720 which I always thought to be a man with a 1427 01:16:10.760 --> 01:16:14.920 wooden leg, would never make it to my room. I 1428 01:16:14.960 --> 01:16:17.439 would start crying and screaming for my parents to come 1429 01:16:17.479 --> 01:16:20.600 to my room because the noise was terrified and those 1430 01:16:20.600 --> 01:16:25.079 demons were tormenting with their evil laughs and dances. As 1431 01:16:25.159 --> 01:16:27.520 soon as my mom would push open the door, the 1432 01:16:27.560 --> 01:16:29.800 demons would vanish and the sound coming from the kitchen 1433 01:16:29.800 --> 01:16:32.960 would stop right away. I would tell my mom what 1434 01:16:33.039 --> 01:16:35.720 I was seeing and hearing, but she never believed me. 1435 01:16:36.560 --> 01:16:38.319 She would leave the room and it would start all 1436 01:16:38.319 --> 01:16:42.439 over again. I remember hearing a voice behind me telling 1437 01:16:42.479 --> 01:16:47.079 me in Spanish, they will never believe you. This happened 1438 01:16:47.119 --> 01:16:50.079 to me for many years, but I don't remember when 1439 01:16:50.079 --> 01:16:54.199 it stopped. Thank God, it doesn't happen anymore. I'm forty 1440 01:16:54.279 --> 01:16:56.439 years old now and many starting things have happened in 1441 01:16:56.479 --> 01:16:59.840 my life that as of today, I have no explanation. 1442 01:17:01.199 --> 01:17:12.439 Thank you for listening Eve Funeral for a friend. Hello. 1443 01:17:12.960 --> 01:17:16.359 A while back, I discovered your channel, specifically your video 1444 01:17:16.359 --> 01:17:20.119 about Trinny Gibson, and I've been hooked ever since. It's 1445 01:17:20.119 --> 01:17:22.000 been a great way of making the day go by. 1446 01:17:22.800 --> 01:17:25.439 I hear these stories on the compilation and it's changed 1447 01:17:25.439 --> 01:17:29.239 my perspective on mind Counter because I've been embarrassed about it, 1448 01:17:30.600 --> 01:17:33.439 but now I feel confident to get this off my chest. 1449 01:17:34.640 --> 01:17:37.119 This happened just a few years back. Not long after, 1450 01:17:37.159 --> 01:17:39.279 my phone blew up with messages telling me that an 1451 01:17:39.319 --> 01:17:42.560 old friend of mine, Cleo, had died in a car accident. 1452 01:17:44.359 --> 01:17:46.760 I'll be honest about it. I had known with Cleo 1453 01:17:46.840 --> 01:17:49.800 since right after high school, and thinking about it, I 1454 01:17:49.880 --> 01:17:53.439 wondered if he was ever a friend. I didn't know 1455 01:17:53.479 --> 01:17:55.239 what to feel, and it put me in a bad 1456 01:17:55.279 --> 01:17:58.640 place for a couple of days, sitting around my apartment 1457 01:17:58.720 --> 01:18:01.439 with this metallic taste in my mouth, like when your 1458 01:18:01.479 --> 01:18:04.279 a kid lose a tooth and you can't do anything 1459 01:18:04.279 --> 01:18:08.359 except taste blood until it heals. That kind of mindset 1460 01:18:08.399 --> 01:18:11.199 isn't healthy. I pushed it aside and got back to 1461 01:18:11.239 --> 01:18:14.239 my friend Chris, who was putting together a little memorial 1462 01:18:14.279 --> 01:18:18.399 for Cleo on the following Saturday, just the old gang. 1463 01:18:18.439 --> 01:18:21.800 He said, sure, I replied, it would be great to 1464 01:18:21.840 --> 01:18:25.479 see them again. It's funny you can say something on 1465 01:18:25.520 --> 01:18:28.760 Facebook and feel completely different in real life. I guess 1466 01:18:28.800 --> 01:18:31.439 it doesn't take a genius to notice that, but it 1467 01:18:31.520 --> 01:18:34.479 was how I was feeling. I spent the whole six 1468 01:18:34.520 --> 01:18:37.479 hour drive going over my life in that town or 1469 01:18:37.560 --> 01:18:41.079 what had been. I'd left so fast the memories felt 1470 01:18:41.079 --> 01:18:43.680 like gray mush of my skull, and the only thing 1471 01:18:43.760 --> 01:18:45.920 left was this itchy feeling that I was right to 1472 01:18:45.960 --> 01:18:49.479 do so. I kept wondering what they would think of me. 1473 01:18:50.520 --> 01:18:53.880 We weren't old, just approaching our thirties, but from the 1474 01:18:53.880 --> 01:18:56.279 little I paid attention to on Facebook, they seemed to 1475 01:18:56.279 --> 01:18:59.479 be on their way to better and brighter things. Chris, 1476 01:18:59.520 --> 01:19:02.640 for example, was already running the old slaughterhouse on the 1477 01:19:02.720 --> 01:19:04.800 edge of town, and already had a wife and daughter 1478 01:19:04.880 --> 01:19:09.680 and a house too. All by twenty four. Passing the 1479 01:19:09.680 --> 01:19:14.279 city limits sunset and tired made things for us. A 1480 01:19:14.319 --> 01:19:16.399 ton of bricks weighed down on my shoulders and neck, 1481 01:19:16.560 --> 01:19:19.479 tightening my head and making me sweat hard. Even though 1482 01:19:19.479 --> 01:19:21.359 it was early December and I was driving with the 1483 01:19:21.359 --> 01:19:25.319 windows down, I felt like a candle that someone had 1484 01:19:25.359 --> 01:19:29.840 thrown water on old times, flooding back. I guess I 1485 01:19:29.840 --> 01:19:32.680 didn't want to meet up with them right away. I 1486 01:19:32.840 --> 01:19:35.880 decided that way back before crossing the Missouri state line, 1487 01:19:36.600 --> 01:19:39.319 so I checked into the new Motel six on Connor Street. 1488 01:19:40.399 --> 01:19:42.279 The room they gave me, I could see the whole 1489 01:19:42.279 --> 01:19:44.079 town spread out all the way to the hills and 1490 01:19:44.119 --> 01:19:47.960 into the woods. It looked bigger from there yet I 1491 01:19:48.039 --> 01:19:51.000 knew from growing up there were no strangers in that town, 1492 01:19:52.319 --> 01:19:55.000 a tight knit community and most are family one way 1493 01:19:55.079 --> 01:20:00.520 or another. Nothing had changed, nothing ever changed. I closed 1494 01:20:00.520 --> 01:20:03.880 the curtains and went to bed. I woke up with 1495 01:20:03.920 --> 01:20:06.840 a sudden jol, my hand grabbing my other arm out 1496 01:20:06.840 --> 01:20:10.039 of reflex. It felt like someone had stuck me with 1497 01:20:10.079 --> 01:20:13.039 a hot poker. I scarmed on the bed for quite 1498 01:20:13.039 --> 01:20:16.439 some time, praying for help that never came. Flicked the 1499 01:20:16.439 --> 01:20:19.800 bedside lamp on to see what had happened. My stomach 1500 01:20:19.880 --> 01:20:25.319 dropped twisted. All I was seeing was skin, perfectly normal skin, 1501 01:20:25.520 --> 01:20:28.439 no burns and scratches or bruises. And to make things 1502 01:20:28.520 --> 01:20:32.079 even stranger, the TV was on the volumet full of blast. 1503 01:20:33.039 --> 01:20:36.920 I turned it off. I turned the lamp off and breathed. 1504 01:20:38.720 --> 01:20:42.000 The room felt strange, sideways, like someone had broken in 1505 01:20:42.039 --> 01:20:45.319 and couldn't find what they were looking for, leaving everything upturned. 1506 01:20:46.159 --> 01:20:50.159 But nothing had been upturned except for the TV. It 1507 01:20:50.279 --> 01:20:54.520 was oddly calm. Even the air felt thick and stagnant. 1508 01:20:55.199 --> 01:20:57.920 I managed to squeeze in a couple of hours sleep. Somehow, 1509 01:20:59.319 --> 01:21:02.079 when I woke up, it was the same, only now 1510 01:21:02.199 --> 01:21:05.439 sitting at the further bed, I felt heavier, a little 1511 01:21:05.479 --> 01:21:07.760 more sick than I was just a few hours before. 1512 01:21:09.119 --> 01:21:11.159 I got in the shower, made sure the water was 1513 01:21:11.159 --> 01:21:15.960 steaming hot, soothing for maybe thirty seconds. Then the anxiety 1514 01:21:16.039 --> 01:21:18.079 kicked back in, and I nearly made up my mind 1515 01:21:18.079 --> 01:21:19.760 to just get in the car and ditch that buggy 1516 01:21:19.800 --> 01:21:22.000 town go home where I could shut my windows and 1517 01:21:22.039 --> 01:21:26.079 know for sure nobody was watching. That's how I felt 1518 01:21:26.159 --> 01:21:29.880 right then, like I was being watched, kind of like 1519 01:21:29.920 --> 01:21:33.119 a movie. The whole time I was showering, I'd made 1520 01:21:33.159 --> 01:21:35.039 peace with the fact that some ugly brute with a 1521 01:21:35.079 --> 01:21:36.880 butcher knife was on the other side of the curtain, 1522 01:21:37.239 --> 01:21:40.279 licking his lips, waiting for me to let my guard down. 1523 01:21:41.319 --> 01:21:43.319 Yet no matter how many times I swung open the 1524 01:21:43.359 --> 01:21:47.319 curtain ready to strike, there was nothing, not even a spider. 1525 01:21:48.439 --> 01:21:51.279 I felt like I was going crazy. I felt like 1526 01:21:51.359 --> 01:21:53.279 the best medicine for me was to go see some 1527 01:21:53.319 --> 01:21:55.840 old friends, maybe go and get drunk with them like 1528 01:21:55.840 --> 01:21:59.000 we did in junior year, and get this day over with. 1529 01:22:00.880 --> 01:22:04.520 The funeral was nice and pleasant, not too overdone. A 1530 01:22:04.600 --> 01:22:07.159 lot of people showed up. I knew some of the 1531 01:22:07.159 --> 01:22:11.920 faces from growing up. Afterwards, as we shuffled out into 1532 01:22:11.920 --> 01:22:15.600 the cold rain. I found Chris. We nodded at each 1533 01:22:15.600 --> 01:22:18.680 other and talked catching up. He said the rest of 1534 01:22:18.680 --> 01:22:20.319 the guys had left a little early and went to 1535 01:22:20.399 --> 01:22:22.199 Nate's place to get the grille set up in the 1536 01:22:22.239 --> 01:22:26.560 bonfire going. I told him i'd follow him there. Then, 1537 01:22:27.399 --> 01:22:30.439 oh shit, I must have left my wallet. I need 1538 01:22:30.439 --> 01:22:33.119 to run back to my hotel and get it. I 1539 01:22:33.199 --> 01:22:36.640 was lying right then, that uneasy feeling still bubbling up 1540 01:22:36.640 --> 01:22:40.239 in my stomach. I needed some fresh air and drove 1541 01:22:40.359 --> 01:22:43.720 all over town, see my parents' house, my old school, 1542 01:22:43.760 --> 01:22:45.640 and where the old fire station used to be, and 1543 01:22:45.680 --> 01:22:48.319 where the new one is now. It was all so 1544 01:22:48.479 --> 01:22:51.680 sad and tired looking, and me driving was just another 1545 01:22:51.720 --> 01:22:56.119 way to avoid the inevitable. Somewhere on Fifth Street, I 1546 01:22:56.199 --> 01:22:58.720 let out a deep sigh and swung around back towards 1547 01:22:58.760 --> 01:23:02.439 the direction of Nate's place. The land was as beautiful 1548 01:23:02.439 --> 01:23:05.359 as it was in high school. Now Nate owned it, 1549 01:23:05.479 --> 01:23:08.920 a graduation gift from his uncle, eight acres of grass 1550 01:23:08.960 --> 01:23:11.159 and cows, and a whole bunch of trees surrounding it, 1551 01:23:11.680 --> 01:23:15.399 giving off a vibe like a fortress. Sure enough, all 1552 01:23:15.439 --> 01:23:18.640 the guys were there. I'd be lying if I said 1553 01:23:18.640 --> 01:23:21.039 I didn't have a good time. The steak was good 1554 01:23:21.119 --> 01:23:24.199 and the beer flowed like we were seventeen. I loosened 1555 01:23:24.279 --> 01:23:27.039 up pretty quick. Each one of us had a story 1556 01:23:27.039 --> 01:23:30.199 about Cleo, and that night was spent telling them around 1557 01:23:30.239 --> 01:23:33.800 the bottomfire. When Chris was done with his, the fire 1558 01:23:33.880 --> 01:23:36.439 now died down just a couple of hot coals. He 1559 01:23:36.479 --> 01:23:38.319 said he had something for us and went over to 1560 01:23:38.359 --> 01:23:41.960 his truck. He came back with a big plastic tub 1561 01:23:42.760 --> 01:23:46.119 and told us what was in there. It was everything 1562 01:23:46.239 --> 01:23:50.760 Cleo had owned. Cleo's mom, Chris said, had brought it 1563 01:23:50.800 --> 01:23:53.520 over the day after he had died. She said that 1564 01:23:53.560 --> 01:23:55.239 she couldn't bear to look at it, that it was 1565 01:23:55.279 --> 01:23:58.960 best just to let his friends have it. That made 1566 01:23:58.960 --> 01:24:02.199 his death real all all of us. We were silent 1567 01:24:02.279 --> 01:24:05.600 for a few moments. Then Chris spoke up and we 1568 01:24:05.640 --> 01:24:08.720 all agreed that Clio's mom was right. EA show us 1569 01:24:08.760 --> 01:24:10.520 pick through the box and found a couple of things 1570 01:24:10.520 --> 01:24:13.439 we really wanted. I took an alarm clock and this 1571 01:24:13.600 --> 01:24:17.600 really cool weather radio. What was left were just a 1572 01:24:17.600 --> 01:24:21.119 few small things we felt weird about taking. How about 1573 01:24:21.119 --> 01:24:24.039 what just toss it? Chris suggested his eyes on what 1574 01:24:24.199 --> 01:24:28.079 was left with a bonfire, so we did and watched 1575 01:24:28.119 --> 01:24:32.840 it melt. I was sobering up by then, we all were. 1576 01:24:33.640 --> 01:24:36.920 We said our goodbyes and went off. I got back 1577 01:24:36.960 --> 01:24:38.840 to my room a little after two in the morning, 1578 01:24:39.279 --> 01:24:43.840 threw my things down and fell asleep. Beep beep beep, 1579 01:24:44.680 --> 01:24:49.800 beep beep beep. I snapped away, heaving, my heart racing, 1580 01:24:49.880 --> 01:24:54.119 my arm burning once again that clock. I knew there 1581 01:24:54.159 --> 01:24:57.159 weren't any batteries in that damn thing I checked, but 1582 01:24:57.239 --> 01:25:01.199 there it was, going like crazy a few times before 1583 01:25:01.279 --> 01:25:05.760 ear piercing static nearly sent me into cardiac arrest. The 1584 01:25:05.800 --> 01:25:09.000 weather radio had now turned itself on and the volume 1585 01:25:09.079 --> 01:25:12.000 was getting louder, ignoring my finger slamming down on the 1586 01:25:12.039 --> 01:25:16.119 off button. All of a sudden it went silent, maybe 1587 01:25:16.119 --> 01:25:19.199 to let the clock over turn it screaming slowly, However, 1588 01:25:19.359 --> 01:25:23.000 the volume rose and the static intensified. I dug my 1589 01:25:23.039 --> 01:25:25.800 finger into the off button, and this time it listened, 1590 01:25:26.640 --> 01:25:31.399 but not for long. The TV popped on once more. 1591 01:25:31.479 --> 01:25:34.680 There was static, and strangely it sounded the same as 1592 01:25:34.680 --> 01:25:37.720 the weather radio, only this time there was a light 1593 01:25:37.760 --> 01:25:40.640 home underneath it. All setting until I could hear it 1594 01:25:40.680 --> 01:25:44.800 over the static. It was a voice, and it was talking, 1595 01:25:45.880 --> 01:25:49.880 begging me to set it free. Then I heard something 1596 01:25:49.880 --> 01:25:54.520 I'll never forget. Cleo. The voice said, over and over 1597 01:25:54.560 --> 01:25:58.720 and over and over. It was Cleo. He wanted to 1598 01:25:58.720 --> 01:26:02.960 be set free. I can't put into words the fear 1599 01:26:03.039 --> 01:26:07.159 that was going through me. This wasn't Cleo. I remember 1600 01:26:07.319 --> 01:26:09.920 my Grandma telling me and my sister about demons lying 1601 01:26:09.920 --> 01:26:12.840 to you to get what they want. Once they know 1602 01:26:12.920 --> 01:26:15.560 who you are, they play any kind of motion to win. 1603 01:26:17.560 --> 01:26:19.399 I got up and ripped the TV cord out of 1604 01:26:19.399 --> 01:26:22.199 the plug, gathered the radio and clock, and went into 1605 01:26:22.239 --> 01:26:26.399 the bathroom. I filled the tub halfway, then I threw 1606 01:26:26.439 --> 01:26:30.520 them in. As they sank to the bottom of the tub, 1607 01:26:30.920 --> 01:26:36.000 I could hear static. I could hear static drowning, angry, popping, 1608 01:26:36.039 --> 01:26:39.600 and sparking until it died. I grabbed my belongings and 1609 01:26:39.680 --> 01:26:41.680 checked out and drove back home in the dark through 1610 01:26:41.720 --> 01:26:45.720 a nasty snowstorm. It was worth it. As soon as 1611 01:26:45.720 --> 01:26:48.479 I left Missouri, the weight on my shoulders lifted, and 1612 01:26:48.560 --> 01:26:51.960 I forgot about the past two days. It was only 1613 01:26:52.000 --> 01:26:54.920 after months of blankness that the events flooded back into 1614 01:26:54.960 --> 01:26:58.960 my mind. I came to conclusion that ghosts and demons 1615 01:26:59.039 --> 01:27:02.039 or whatever evil is will always be lurking in the shadows, 1616 01:27:02.640 --> 01:27:05.399 will always be waiting for a soul to be afraid. 1617 01:27:06.079 --> 01:27:08.119 I made a deal with myself to never mess with 1618 01:27:08.199 --> 01:27:11.439 that side of the world. It will always lead to 1619 01:27:11.479 --> 01:27:16.840 hell and suffering. I try to do good now. I 1620 01:27:16.880 --> 01:27:20.079 go to church just about every week. I need something 1621 01:27:20.119 --> 01:27:23.000 to protect me. Maybe there's a heaven, or maybe it's 1622 01:27:23.039 --> 01:27:25.359 all in my head, but I would like to be 1623 01:27:25.399 --> 01:27:29.680 prepared for whatever happens. Thank you for allowing me to 1624 01:27:29.680 --> 01:27:32.880 share my story. I hope my experience gives comfort to 1625 01:27:32.920 --> 01:27:36.560 those who encounter the paranormal worse than me, because anyone 1626 01:27:36.600 --> 01:27:42.520 can survive evil if their heart is in the right place. Sincerely, Martin, 1627 01:27:44.439 --> 01:27:48.920 my one creepy story. Hi Steve, I've been enjoying your 1628 01:27:49.000 --> 01:27:52.199 National Park mysteries for a few months now. I began 1629 01:27:52.359 --> 01:27:54.399 listening to you and found out you were from East Tennessee. 1630 01:27:55.479 --> 01:27:57.640 I was born and raised in Knoxville, so I fell 1631 01:27:57.720 --> 01:28:01.439 a connection with you because of that, your great storyteller. 1632 01:28:01.640 --> 01:28:04.600 Like many people from our neck of the woods, I 1633 01:28:04.680 --> 01:28:07.560 decided to share an experience of my own. This is 1634 01:28:07.600 --> 01:28:11.880 completely truthful. It happened in the late eighties early nineties, 1635 01:28:12.600 --> 01:28:14.880 my husband, my son, and I were at my parents' 1636 01:28:14.880 --> 01:28:17.960 home where I grew up. It was Halloween night and 1637 01:28:18.000 --> 01:28:19.800 we'd made a little fire in the front yard and 1638 01:28:19.800 --> 01:28:23.680 we're roasting hot dogs and making s'mores. My son had 1639 01:28:23.680 --> 01:28:25.560 gotten himself in a bit of trouble, and I sent 1640 01:28:25.640 --> 01:28:29.439 him to the bedroom for a time out. I'd escorted 1641 01:28:29.479 --> 01:28:32.960 him there and returned to the fire A short time later. 1642 01:28:33.079 --> 01:28:35.159 My husband had rejoined me by the fire and I 1643 01:28:35.199 --> 01:28:38.359 was toasting a marshmallow. He asked me where our son 1644 01:28:38.479 --> 01:28:41.720 was going, and I said, he's not going anywhere. He 1645 01:28:41.800 --> 01:28:43.560 was causing trouble and I made him sit on the 1646 01:28:43.600 --> 01:28:45.359 bed until I tell him he can come back out. 1647 01:28:46.680 --> 01:28:48.920 My husband says to me that he saw our son 1648 01:28:49.039 --> 01:28:51.840 come out of the house, walk down the concrete pathway 1649 01:28:52.000 --> 01:28:56.279 and start down the street. Well, that made me angry, 1650 01:28:56.800 --> 01:28:58.600 and I handed my husband my stick with a toasted 1651 01:28:58.640 --> 01:29:01.119 marshmallow still on the end and told him I'd be 1652 01:29:01.199 --> 01:29:04.840 right back. I looked around and saw nobody outside, so 1653 01:29:04.880 --> 01:29:07.800 I went in the house. I walked to the bedroom door, 1654 01:29:08.079 --> 01:29:10.199 opened it, and there my son was still sitting on 1655 01:29:10.239 --> 01:29:14.720 the bed. He was exactly where I'd left him. Now 1656 01:29:14.880 --> 01:29:18.079 I was confused. I went back outside and told my 1657 01:29:18.159 --> 01:29:19.840 husband that our son was still sitting on the bed 1658 01:29:19.880 --> 01:29:23.039 where I'd left him. My husband continued to insist that 1659 01:29:23.079 --> 01:29:24.720 he saw him come out of the front door and 1660 01:29:24.760 --> 01:29:28.159 head down the street. There was a couple living just 1661 01:29:28.199 --> 01:29:30.159 a short distance from my parents' house that we were 1662 01:29:30.159 --> 01:29:32.039 good friends with, and my husband thought our son was 1663 01:29:32.079 --> 01:29:35.600 going to their house. My husband had been at their 1664 01:29:35.640 --> 01:29:39.159 house earlier that evening. I took him inside mom and 1665 01:29:39.239 --> 01:29:40.840 Dad's house and showed him that our son was in 1666 01:29:40.880 --> 01:29:44.560 the bedroom secret see for himself, after which we were 1667 01:29:44.560 --> 01:29:48.359 both perplexed. I asked him repeatedly if he's playing a 1668 01:29:48.439 --> 01:29:51.720 joke ONLL me for Halloween, and he said no. To 1669 01:29:51.800 --> 01:29:55.239 this day, we still don't know what actually happened that night. 1670 01:29:56.239 --> 01:29:59.560 I know that it really frightened me. I know that 1671 01:29:59.600 --> 01:30:01.760 if my had been messing with me, he would have 1672 01:30:01.800 --> 01:30:05.319 owned up to it at some point, but he never has. 1673 01:30:06.319 --> 01:30:09.479 I mean, why would anybody prank somebody successfully and not 1674 01:30:09.600 --> 01:30:12.079 let that somebody know they'd been had. What would be 1675 01:30:12.079 --> 01:30:15.880 the fun in that? But like I said, I know 1676 01:30:16.000 --> 01:30:18.000 my husband and he would have let me in on 1677 01:30:18.039 --> 01:30:22.439 the prank. That night if it had actually been a prank. Well, 1678 01:30:22.920 --> 01:30:26.199 that's my one creepy story. Thanks for letting me share 1679 01:30:26.199 --> 01:30:37.479 it with you. Signed Karen B. A ghost story. My 1680 01:30:37.560 --> 01:30:40.239 friend Boris and his wife and I went over to 1681 01:30:40.279 --> 01:30:43.640 some brothers farm. The farm had been in their family 1682 01:30:43.640 --> 01:30:47.680 for a long time, since pioneering days. Their grandpa and 1683 01:30:47.720 --> 01:30:50.039 grandma died back in the sixties, and the house had 1684 01:30:50.079 --> 01:30:53.680 been empty since. The brothers had been fighting a lot, 1685 01:30:53.800 --> 01:30:55.600 and their mom and dad sent them over to live 1686 01:30:55.640 --> 01:30:59.760 in grandpa's old farmhouse because the fighting was driving them crazy. 1687 01:31:00.279 --> 01:31:04.079 The brothers invite us over to hang out. I was 1688 01:31:04.119 --> 01:31:06.840 sitting on the couch with Ryan and I started smelling 1689 01:31:06.920 --> 01:31:11.159 the sickly sweet flowers of perfume. Smell kept getting stronger 1690 01:31:11.239 --> 01:31:14.119 until it was very unpleasant and there was a cold, 1691 01:31:14.159 --> 01:31:18.199 sad feeling that came into the room. I said, what 1692 01:31:18.399 --> 01:31:22.199 is that strong perfume smell? And the oldest brother, Roy, 1693 01:31:22.359 --> 01:31:27.439 angrily said, it's Ryan's cologne. It stinks like hell. Ryan 1694 01:31:27.479 --> 01:31:31.920 immediately shouted back, you know it's not me, it's the ghost. 1695 01:31:32.319 --> 01:31:35.239 Roy shouted back in him to stfu, do you want 1696 01:31:35.239 --> 01:31:39.319 people to think we're crazy? Then I was overcome by 1697 01:31:39.319 --> 01:31:43.119 this intense sadness until tears started coming out of my eyes. 1698 01:31:44.239 --> 01:31:46.520 This ghost or whatever it was did not like me 1699 01:31:46.640 --> 01:31:49.479 and wanted me out. I got up and ran out 1700 01:31:49.479 --> 01:31:51.520 of the house and down the driveway to Boris's car. 1701 01:31:52.640 --> 01:31:54.199 Feeling left me as soon as I got out of 1702 01:31:54.199 --> 01:31:56.199 the house and was completely gone by the time they 1703 01:31:56.199 --> 01:31:59.399 come out to check on me. I told them that 1704 01:31:59.439 --> 01:32:02.600 the house was haunted by a malevolent spirit and that 1705 01:32:02.720 --> 01:32:06.000 I would not go back in. The brothers left also. 1706 01:32:07.319 --> 01:32:16.920 This happened back in the nineteen seventies. Signed Urh the 1707 01:32:16.960 --> 01:32:22.399 Flannel Man. In December two thousand and one, I traveled 1708 01:32:22.399 --> 01:32:24.239 by car with my ex brother in law to a 1709 01:32:24.239 --> 01:32:28.920 little town called Weaverville in Reading, California, not far from 1710 01:32:28.920 --> 01:32:33.600 Mount Shasta. We were heading to his grandparents' house for Christmas, 1711 01:32:33.600 --> 01:32:37.439 something my ex wife's family did every year. We were 1712 01:32:37.520 --> 01:32:40.199 newly wedded and just had her first child. This trip 1713 01:32:40.239 --> 01:32:42.319 will be the first time meeting her father's side of 1714 01:32:42.359 --> 01:32:45.760 the family. My ex wife and daughter had traveled by 1715 01:32:45.800 --> 01:32:48.840 training ahead of us because I had to work. I 1716 01:32:48.880 --> 01:32:51.000 got along well with her brother, so the road trip 1717 01:32:51.039 --> 01:32:54.479 had been awesome. Now on the last stretch of this 1718 01:32:54.560 --> 01:32:56.840 road trip, we were on a very long and desolate pass, 1719 01:32:57.439 --> 01:33:02.760 absolute middle of nowhere but trees and snow. It was 1720 01:33:02.760 --> 01:33:05.920 about ten o'clock at night. The moon was shining and 1721 01:33:06.079 --> 01:33:09.560 visibility was about thirty yards into the forest. I was 1722 01:33:09.640 --> 01:33:13.199 just speechless at the density and vastness of that forest. 1723 01:33:14.159 --> 01:33:17.079 It felt so full and yet so empty at the 1724 01:33:17.079 --> 01:33:21.920 same time. I remember thinking to myself, how could anything 1725 01:33:22.000 --> 01:33:25.479 survive in that dark snow. When all of a sudden, 1726 01:33:26.239 --> 01:33:29.840 my brother in law said aloud, what the hell is 1727 01:33:29.880 --> 01:33:33.960 that a person? I looked up the road, and sure enough, 1728 01:33:34.880 --> 01:33:37.279 there was a man walking hard, almost stomping, on the 1729 01:33:37.279 --> 01:33:40.600 side of the pass, standing at least seven foot tall. 1730 01:33:41.800 --> 01:33:43.920 He was wearing a red and black checkered flannel with 1731 01:33:43.960 --> 01:33:48.119 blue jeans. I vaguely remember him wearing a duck hunting hat. 1732 01:33:50.880 --> 01:33:52.920 I could tell he was holding on to something, and 1733 01:33:52.960 --> 01:33:54.800 it wasn't until we got right up close that we 1734 01:33:54.840 --> 01:33:58.199 saw that it was a double edged axe. We slowed 1735 01:33:58.279 --> 01:34:00.000 down just enough to get a look at his fast 1736 01:34:01.319 --> 01:34:04.399 I will never forget when he looked at me, his 1737 01:34:04.520 --> 01:34:07.279 eyes were so sunken in I could hardly even see them. 1738 01:34:08.279 --> 01:34:13.079 He had a pale, weathered face and a strong, sharp jaw, Honestly, 1739 01:34:13.520 --> 01:34:17.319 he looked angry, I mean furious, like he was on 1740 01:34:17.359 --> 01:34:21.600 his way to kill somebody. I was completely turned around 1741 01:34:21.600 --> 01:34:23.479 in my seat looking back at him, while my brother 1742 01:34:23.479 --> 01:34:26.920 in law stared in his rear view mirror. Just a 1743 01:34:27.039 --> 01:34:29.000 thought of someone out there in the middle of nowhere 1744 01:34:29.079 --> 01:34:32.319 was scary, but an angry man holding an axe was 1745 01:34:32.399 --> 01:34:36.800 absolutely terrifying. We drove away as fast as we could. 1746 01:34:37.479 --> 01:34:39.640 We were breathless. We didn't say a word for a 1747 01:34:39.680 --> 01:34:42.920 few minutes. Then we both started screaming, what the hell 1748 01:34:43.119 --> 01:34:47.560 was that? Who was that? Holy shit? He had an axe. 1749 01:34:47.800 --> 01:34:49.239 We didn't know whether it was the hopper or to 1750 01:34:49.319 --> 01:34:52.239 keep going. He didn't look like he needed help. He 1751 01:34:52.279 --> 01:34:57.239 looked evil. Three more hours until we arrived at his grandparents. 1752 01:34:57.760 --> 01:35:00.920 Mind you, three hours were driving in nothing, forest and snow. 1753 01:35:02.359 --> 01:35:05.159 I remember just looking into the forest trying to find anything, 1754 01:35:05.239 --> 01:35:09.640 a cabin, a tent, a campfire, anything, But there was nothing, 1755 01:35:10.560 --> 01:35:16.520 nothing but very dark, very cold for us. When we arrived, 1756 01:35:16.680 --> 01:35:20.439 we were both still shaken up. We tell his grandparents 1757 01:35:20.439 --> 01:35:22.439 what we just saw and asked him if we did 1758 01:35:22.439 --> 01:35:25.680 the right thing, or should we call the authorities and 1759 01:35:25.720 --> 01:35:28.319 inform him there's a man with an axe walking the highway, 1760 01:35:28.359 --> 01:35:32.680 and he's liable to freeze to death or kill somebody. 1761 01:35:32.880 --> 01:35:36.359 His grandfather quickly disregarded our story and said, we're probably 1762 01:35:36.439 --> 01:35:40.199 just very tired. I distinctly remember him saying, there's no 1763 01:35:40.239 --> 01:35:43.119 way in hell anyone would be out there. He then 1764 01:35:43.239 --> 01:35:47.800 asked us if we'd been smoking weed. Lol. We said no, 1765 01:35:48.159 --> 01:35:51.239 but that wasn't true. But I've never smoked pot and 1766 01:35:51.279 --> 01:35:56.279 saw random lumberjacks just appear on the road before. We 1767 01:35:56.399 --> 01:35:59.680 both know what we saw. We both know what was real. 1768 01:36:00.960 --> 01:36:06.640 This was not a hallucination. Well, his grandfather called his neighbor, 1769 01:36:06.680 --> 01:36:10.319 who was Vaultier Sheriff's deputy, and he called it in 1770 01:36:10.359 --> 01:36:16.199 the Sheriff's department then dispatched HP California Highway Patrol. It 1771 01:36:16.199 --> 01:36:18.000 wasn't until a few days later that we were told 1772 01:36:18.039 --> 01:36:20.399 there was no report or evidence of anyone with an 1773 01:36:20.439 --> 01:36:24.600 axe walking on that highway. When I heard that, I 1774 01:36:24.600 --> 01:36:30.560 remember thinking to myself, we saw a ghost. I only 1775 01:36:30.600 --> 01:36:32.680 posted this story because the other day I was surfing 1776 01:36:32.720 --> 01:36:36.199 YouTube and I stumbled on the phenomena of the flannel man. 1777 01:36:36.880 --> 01:36:39.840 My jaw dropped, the hair on my neck stood up, 1778 01:36:39.880 --> 01:36:42.479 and a chill came over my body as I remembered 1779 01:36:42.520 --> 01:36:46.039 what happened to us. I am grateful for this outlet. 1780 01:36:47.199 --> 01:36:49.640 I really do appreciate all the stories and theories that 1781 01:36:49.640 --> 01:36:52.760 are presented on your channel. It feels like I got 1782 01:36:52.800 --> 01:36:56.119 a little closer to understanding just what happened to us. 1783 01:36:56.680 --> 01:37:00.760 I will never forget that cold, dark night. Thank you, 1784 01:37:01.760 --> 01:37:11.600 Signed cl the Translucent Humanoid. This is my encounter with 1785 01:37:11.720 --> 01:37:15.439 a translucent humanoid. Many years ago. When I was living 1786 01:37:15.479 --> 01:37:18.000 in South Florida, I had a very strange thing happened 1787 01:37:18.039 --> 01:37:21.720 to me. To start off, the house I was living 1788 01:37:21.760 --> 01:37:25.760 in was a news structure on drained swamp plant. It's 1789 01:37:25.760 --> 01:37:29.479 not like anyone lived there before. Native Americans may have 1790 01:37:29.560 --> 01:37:32.520 at one time, but the village of Royal Palm Beach 1791 01:37:32.640 --> 01:37:35.079 had canals built all around it to put the drained 1792 01:37:35.119 --> 01:37:38.640 water into. This was back in the late nineteen eighties 1793 01:37:38.640 --> 01:37:43.039 and early nineteen nineties. Our house was a U shaped 1794 01:37:43.159 --> 01:37:46.920 CBS block home, hurricane proof without her shutters through the 1795 01:37:46.920 --> 01:37:49.279 windows and glass sliding doors on the back of the house. 1796 01:37:50.960 --> 01:37:53.119 We also had a thick metal door going down the 1797 01:37:53.119 --> 01:37:55.920 barage just in case throwed down garage doors were blown 1798 01:37:55.920 --> 01:38:00.520 out during the storm. I lived there with my husband, daughters, 1799 01:38:00.640 --> 01:38:03.960 and one son. I was the only one involved in 1800 01:38:04.000 --> 01:38:08.000 this encounter. Always worked an automotive job in a dealership 1801 01:38:09.000 --> 01:38:11.920 or several different positions in the office and service department. 1802 01:38:12.880 --> 01:38:16.039 My husband had his own German car repair shop. He 1803 01:38:16.119 --> 01:38:20.239 was an automotive technician. One day, I woke up and 1804 01:38:20.319 --> 01:38:22.319 noticed I had a lump starting to grow on the 1805 01:38:22.399 --> 01:38:25.800 right side of my forehead. I had not noticed it before. 1806 01:38:26.720 --> 01:38:28.560 I was a little concerned, so I made an appointment 1807 01:38:28.640 --> 01:38:31.760 with my regular doctor in the town next hours. I 1808 01:38:31.880 --> 01:38:34.199 was somewhere in my forties and never had anything like 1809 01:38:34.239 --> 01:38:37.800 this happen before. My husband also said he thought it 1810 01:38:37.800 --> 01:38:42.279 was a good idea to see the doctor. I went 1811 01:38:42.279 --> 01:38:44.800 to my doctor's appointment and waited in the front waiting room, 1812 01:38:45.039 --> 01:38:48.640 wondering what was going to happen. I've always tried to 1813 01:38:48.720 --> 01:38:51.680 avoid the doctor's office. I hated going, and this was 1814 01:38:51.680 --> 01:38:54.479 no different from the other times of my life. Was 1815 01:38:54.520 --> 01:38:55.920 he going to have to cut into it and take 1816 01:38:55.960 --> 01:38:58.319 a biopsy? Was I going to have to look like 1817 01:38:58.399 --> 01:39:00.600 Frankenstein and have a big old stitch? It just blaring 1818 01:39:00.600 --> 01:39:05.439 out at everyone when I was working. Was it cancer? 1819 01:39:06.000 --> 01:39:09.000 The big sea word. By the time I got to 1820 01:39:09.039 --> 01:39:12.760 see the doctor. I'd work myself up into a frenzy. 1821 01:39:12.960 --> 01:39:15.840 My doctor was like, well, calm down and let me 1822 01:39:15.880 --> 01:39:18.720 take a look. He punched around on it and came 1823 01:39:18.720 --> 01:39:22.920 to the conclusion that there's probably nothing to be concerned about. Wow, 1824 01:39:23.079 --> 01:39:25.640 I'm concerned, and I don't think it's going away anytime soon. 1825 01:39:26.800 --> 01:39:28.920 He said, Eh, if it starts to get any bigger, 1826 01:39:29.000 --> 01:39:31.479 come back. You do a biopsy on it, find out 1827 01:39:31.520 --> 01:39:34.239 what it was and how to treat it. I just 1828 01:39:34.279 --> 01:39:37.960 wanted this thing off my head. All I could see 1829 01:39:38.159 --> 01:39:40.840 was my uncle by marriage that had a large gorter 1830 01:39:41.119 --> 01:39:44.159 going off the back of his skull. It was horrifying 1831 01:39:44.199 --> 01:39:45.760 for a small child at the time to see, and 1832 01:39:46.279 --> 01:39:49.159 I could not forget it. But let me just say 1833 01:39:49.399 --> 01:39:52.880 that my uncle was a very sweet man. I was 1834 01:39:52.920 --> 01:39:55.199 not very happy that the doctor didn't see the urgency 1835 01:39:55.239 --> 01:39:57.680 and taking some kind of action get rid of this 1836 01:39:57.800 --> 01:40:02.560 blump off my head. Well, it was several weeks later 1837 01:40:02.640 --> 01:40:06.319 and I thought this thing was growing. Before I got 1838 01:40:06.479 --> 01:40:09.319 around to calling the doctor for a second visit, I 1839 01:40:09.359 --> 01:40:13.680 had the strangest thing happen to me. It's very unbelievable 1840 01:40:13.720 --> 01:40:15.239 and I would not believe it if I had not 1841 01:40:15.319 --> 01:40:19.520 experienced this for myself. I was alone at home, standing 1842 01:40:19.560 --> 01:40:22.039 in my kitchen at the back of the house. I 1843 01:40:22.079 --> 01:40:23.800 was just leaning on the counter of the bar next 1844 01:40:23.840 --> 01:40:25.840 to the sliding glass window that opened out to the 1845 01:40:25.880 --> 01:40:30.039 screened in back porch. The whole backyard was surrounded by 1846 01:40:30.079 --> 01:40:33.880 a wooden privacy fence. Our back porch ran the whole 1847 01:40:33.920 --> 01:40:36.880 link to the back of the house. I had star 1848 01:40:37.000 --> 01:40:39.359 jasmine bushes planted next to the porch and a hedge 1849 01:40:39.359 --> 01:40:42.760 to shade the porch. I was just standing there staring 1850 01:40:42.800 --> 01:40:45.920 at the bushes, thinking how prudy they were. They had 1851 01:40:45.960 --> 01:40:49.199 white star shaped little flowers all over it. It was 1852 01:40:49.199 --> 01:40:53.039 a beautiful sunny day outside. The glass sliding door was 1853 01:40:53.039 --> 01:41:00.159 completely closed. So here comes the really crazy part. All 1854 01:41:00.199 --> 01:41:02.199 the encounters I've read about are by people that have 1855 01:41:02.279 --> 01:41:05.199 been out hiking or camping in the woods. They have 1856 01:41:05.319 --> 01:41:08.880 mentioned that the figure also made a clicking noise. Some 1857 01:41:08.960 --> 01:41:11.880 of em been stalked by them in a menacing way. 1858 01:41:12.039 --> 01:41:16.079 Some people mentioned the movie Predator, the alien that had 1859 01:41:16.079 --> 01:41:20.119 a glassy cloaking device is how they described it. Yes, 1860 01:41:20.199 --> 01:41:23.279 I'd seen the movie, and when I saw my translucent humanoid, 1861 01:41:23.359 --> 01:41:26.800 that was exactly how it looked. Wavy glass in a 1862 01:41:26.840 --> 01:41:29.880 human shape. I was just standing there in the kitchen 1863 01:41:29.920 --> 01:41:33.000 looking out my back door. Then in a split second, 1864 01:41:33.079 --> 01:41:36.159 I could not move, and I stood there paralyzed as 1865 01:41:36.199 --> 01:41:39.520 this creature walked right out of my closed glass door. 1866 01:41:40.600 --> 01:41:43.239 It walked right through the glass with no problem at all. 1867 01:41:44.359 --> 01:41:47.359 I'm having an internal meltdown, but can't move a muscle. 1868 01:41:48.079 --> 01:41:52.520 I'm trying to scream and run. This thing came towards 1869 01:41:52.560 --> 01:41:56.399 me on the other side of the counter. It raised 1870 01:41:56.399 --> 01:41:58.720 its left arm and attached itself to the right side 1871 01:41:58.720 --> 01:42:01.880 of my forehead. All I could hear it was a 1872 01:42:01.920 --> 01:42:06.920 loud suction noise. It was horrifying. I just had to 1873 01:42:06.920 --> 01:42:10.359 stand there and let this happen. The noise was deafening. 1874 01:42:11.319 --> 01:42:14.399 It moved its arm away very slowly, sucking and pulling 1875 01:42:14.479 --> 01:42:18.279 from the right side of my forehead to the left side. 1876 01:42:18.479 --> 01:42:20.760 Then it released its connection to my head. And when 1877 01:42:20.760 --> 01:42:23.119 that happened, my knees buckled and I grabbed the counter 1878 01:42:23.159 --> 01:42:26.399 to keep from falling. I felt like I was going 1879 01:42:26.439 --> 01:42:29.880 to pass out, but I didn't. I watched this thing 1880 01:42:29.960 --> 01:42:32.399 keep moving straight through the den, and it walked right 1881 01:42:32.479 --> 01:42:36.359 through my metal garage door without opening. It just walked 1882 01:42:36.439 --> 01:42:39.600 right into the middle and disappeared. I stood there for 1883 01:42:39.640 --> 01:42:41.439 a few seconds until I could get a grip on 1884 01:42:41.520 --> 01:42:46.119 what just happened. I ran out the garage door to 1885 01:42:46.119 --> 01:42:49.000 see where this thing had gone. The garage roll up 1886 01:42:49.039 --> 01:42:51.319 door was opened, and I ran out into the driveway 1887 01:42:51.359 --> 01:42:54.279 to see if I could see where it went. I've 1888 01:42:54.319 --> 01:42:57.560 never seen it again, and my lump is gone on 1889 01:42:57.600 --> 01:43:00.960 my head. I don't know how this thing knew I 1890 01:43:01.039 --> 01:43:02.880 had a lump on my head and why it fixed 1891 01:43:02.920 --> 01:43:05.560 it for me, but I am grateful that it helped me. 1892 01:43:06.880 --> 01:43:08.760 This just proved to me that locked doors will not 1893 01:43:08.880 --> 01:43:11.920 keep this creature out of your house. It will and 1894 01:43:12.000 --> 01:43:16.239 can walk through anything. And also, whoever made the movie 1895 01:43:16.279 --> 01:43:19.119 Predator has seen one of these creatures and copied it. 1896 01:43:19.159 --> 01:43:24.159 Precisely makes you wonder. I spent many years searching the 1897 01:43:24.239 --> 01:43:27.399 internet looking for other people who encountered these beings, and 1898 01:43:27.439 --> 01:43:30.560 about two years ago I stumbled onto some stories on YouTube. 1899 01:43:32.119 --> 01:43:35.560 It made me feel like I wasn't alone. Just to 1900 01:43:35.640 --> 01:43:38.600 let you know some of my background, I'm not a nut. 1901 01:43:38.960 --> 01:43:42.680 I've never done drugs. I have a clean background. I 1902 01:43:42.720 --> 01:43:44.720 was a licensed officer the law for the State of 1903 01:43:44.760 --> 01:43:47.119 Texas for over four years until I hurt my back 1904 01:43:47.119 --> 01:43:50.079 at home and couldn't work at that job anymore. I've 1905 01:43:50.119 --> 01:43:54.159 taken psychological tests and passed them all. I've taken polygraph 1906 01:43:54.239 --> 01:43:56.439 tests or on the job interviews years ago, back in 1907 01:43:56.479 --> 01:44:00.199 the eighties in Florida, and never failed one. I have 1908 01:44:00.199 --> 01:44:03.479 absolutely no idea what these beings are for where they 1909 01:44:03.520 --> 01:44:09.000 come from, but believe me, I have seen one signed 1910 01:44:09.560 --> 01:44:20.039 am a the echo phenomenon. Hey, Stephen Bill, I want 1911 01:44:20.039 --> 01:44:22.000 to start by letting you know how much I appreciate 1912 01:44:22.000 --> 01:44:25.319 your work. I think focusing on the strange and unusual 1913 01:44:25.439 --> 01:44:29.000 is important because the universe is infinite, unexplained, odd and 1914 01:44:29.039 --> 01:44:32.640 surreal shouldn't be as taboo as it is. I feel 1915 01:44:32.640 --> 01:44:36.119 as though possibilities are endless, and we surely can't be 1916 01:44:36.159 --> 01:44:40.760 alone or unknown to other worlds, beings or dimensions. My 1917 01:44:40.840 --> 01:44:42.840 story is pretty fresh in my mind, and I want 1918 01:44:42.840 --> 01:44:46.079 to get it to you before it becomes a foggy memory. 1919 01:44:46.359 --> 01:44:50.039 Six days ago, on the early morning of Friday, May seventh, 1920 01:44:50.119 --> 01:44:54.159 twenty twenty one, it was just another day. I work 1921 01:44:54.279 --> 01:44:56.600 nights as a nurse, and as a single mother, I 1922 01:44:56.600 --> 01:44:58.520 occasionally have to bring my kids to work with me, 1923 01:44:58.640 --> 01:45:00.199 so I can get them ready and on time to 1924 01:45:00.199 --> 01:45:03.039 school in the morning. Their father recently moved away from 1925 01:45:03.039 --> 01:45:06.800 the neighboring town to Madison, where I've always lived. We 1926 01:45:06.880 --> 01:45:09.039 decided switching the kids' schools this close to the end 1927 01:45:09.079 --> 01:45:11.439 of the year would do more harm than good, so 1928 01:45:11.479 --> 01:45:13.600 we decided to drive them to school in the outskirts 1929 01:45:13.640 --> 01:45:16.359 suburb town outside the city for the remainder of the year. 1930 01:45:18.319 --> 01:45:20.960 It's difficult some days, as the round trip takes about 1931 01:45:20.960 --> 01:45:24.920 an extra hour, but we manage. This morning was different, 1932 01:45:24.920 --> 01:45:28.840 though we all woke up groggy and more tired than usual. 1933 01:45:29.319 --> 01:45:31.880 I nearly called them off school for a mental health day, 1934 01:45:32.600 --> 01:45:34.600 but decided against it and got us on the road 1935 01:45:34.640 --> 01:45:38.199 headed for the interstate. It was around seven am when 1936 01:45:38.199 --> 01:45:42.199 we were approaching the town of Windsor. There's a cluster 1937 01:45:42.239 --> 01:45:45.239 of truck stops, so you'd occasionally see hitchhikers walking along 1938 01:45:45.279 --> 01:45:49.159 the interstate's shoulder. There was nothing abnormal seeing random people 1939 01:45:49.239 --> 01:45:52.880 walking along the interstate, but that morning we passed a 1940 01:45:52.920 --> 01:45:57.359 man walking directly down the middle. I remember everything around 1941 01:45:57.359 --> 01:45:59.479 me seemed to be in slow motion, like I was 1942 01:45:59.520 --> 01:46:02.800 able to focus my attention on this man. Although we 1943 01:46:02.800 --> 01:46:05.159 were traveling at about seventy miles an hour on a 1944 01:46:05.159 --> 01:46:09.239 busy interstate. It's a few minutes after seven. At this point, 1945 01:46:10.319 --> 01:46:12.800 my twelve year old daughter asked, Mom, what is he 1946 01:46:12.880 --> 01:46:17.640 doing out there? She seemed panicked with good reason. As 1947 01:46:17.680 --> 01:46:19.439 we passed him, I kept my eye him in the 1948 01:46:19.479 --> 01:46:22.880 rear view mirror, and that's when it happened. An eighteen 1949 01:46:22.880 --> 01:46:27.399 wheeler semi hits him at high speed. It almost seemed 1950 01:46:27.399 --> 01:46:32.680 as though he turned to dust, completely obliterated. I gasped, 1951 01:46:32.760 --> 01:46:34.880 like the air was hit from my chest, but didn't 1952 01:46:34.880 --> 01:46:36.880 want to startle my three young kids and have them 1953 01:46:36.880 --> 01:46:40.960 look back. I was almost in a dreamlike trance. After that, 1954 01:46:42.159 --> 01:46:46.439 I was visibly shook. My daughter's very smart, and I 1955 01:46:46.479 --> 01:46:48.920 had a feeling she understood what I saw, but I 1956 01:46:48.960 --> 01:46:53.039 didn't want to ask. I dropped my two oldest off 1957 01:46:53.079 --> 01:46:55.520 at school and headed back on the neighboring highway leading 1958 01:46:55.520 --> 01:46:59.479 into Madison, rather than getting on the interstate again. Traffic 1959 01:46:59.560 --> 01:47:01.520 was back to on the highway because it was detoured 1960 01:47:01.600 --> 01:47:05.840 from this incident. The highway was always clear and quick 1961 01:47:06.760 --> 01:47:08.479 that day. It took me an hour to get back 1962 01:47:08.520 --> 01:47:10.000 to the west side of the city to get my 1963 01:47:10.039 --> 01:47:13.960 toddler to daycare. I made it home around nine point fifteen. 1964 01:47:14.399 --> 01:47:18.079 I noticed that my drive back almost seemed cloudy, like 1965 01:47:18.199 --> 01:47:21.119 I'm not sure how I made it home. I don't 1966 01:47:21.119 --> 01:47:24.560 remember driving most of that trip. I sat down and 1967 01:47:24.600 --> 01:47:27.720 immediately called my mom to tell her what happened. She 1968 01:47:27.800 --> 01:47:31.800 saw the story being posted all over Facebook. She was 1969 01:47:31.840 --> 01:47:34.279 as shaken as I was that I witnessed such a tragedy, 1970 01:47:34.399 --> 01:47:37.239 and with the kids in the car as well. I 1971 01:47:37.279 --> 01:47:39.479 decided to look up the article and see the events 1972 01:47:39.520 --> 01:47:42.880 surrounding the man's death, who he was, where he was from, 1973 01:47:43.079 --> 01:47:46.119 and why he was out there. I read that he 1974 01:47:46.199 --> 01:47:50.800 was local, but not too many other details. One detail 1975 01:47:50.800 --> 01:47:53.359 that stuck out at me it was the time of 1976 01:47:53.399 --> 01:47:59.359 the incident, three forty five am. My stomach saying the 1977 01:47:59.399 --> 01:48:03.279 hair on my next stood up. I thought that's impossible, 1978 01:48:04.359 --> 01:48:06.800 so I checked the time the article was released. It 1979 01:48:06.880 --> 01:48:10.479 was posted about five am, hours before we had even 1980 01:48:10.479 --> 01:48:13.520 got in the car. I checked other articles and they 1981 01:48:13.560 --> 01:48:19.079 read the same. It wasn't a mistake, so I tried 1982 01:48:19.079 --> 01:48:23.039 to collect myself and focus on my memory what I saw. 1983 01:48:23.680 --> 01:48:26.159 Maybe there was a chance I saw something else being hit, 1984 01:48:27.479 --> 01:48:29.680 but my daughter had asked me about the man walking 1985 01:48:29.720 --> 01:48:33.159 in the middle lane of the interstate. I wasn't imagining it. 1986 01:48:33.680 --> 01:48:36.960 He was there. I felt as though I was in 1987 01:48:37.000 --> 01:48:41.119 a slow motion fog, like that book Annihilation, when they're 1988 01:48:41.119 --> 01:48:45.319 in the shimmer and feel foggy. It was a feeling 1989 01:48:45.399 --> 01:48:48.640 I had never experienced before, and the feeling probably ended 1990 01:48:48.680 --> 01:48:52.079 when I got home. I told my mom about it, 1991 01:48:52.119 --> 01:48:56.840 and she immediately said, you experienced an echo, which roughly 1992 01:48:56.880 --> 01:49:01.279 translates to and almost ripple in time. Were an extremely 1993 01:49:01.359 --> 01:49:06.439 traumatic event. Lingers like a place with bad juju. You 1994 01:49:06.479 --> 01:49:09.279 can feel something bad happened there, but you don't know what. 1995 01:49:10.520 --> 01:49:13.319 I feel as though I'm connected to things most people 1996 01:49:13.359 --> 01:49:16.560 can't see or feel. I'm still not for certain what 1997 01:49:16.720 --> 01:49:20.760 I saw, but I know I wasn't imagining it. If 1998 01:49:20.800 --> 01:49:25.079 anyone else has experienced anything like this echo phenomena, I 1999 01:49:25.079 --> 01:49:28.159 would love to hear it. I've attached a link to 2000 01:49:28.199 --> 01:49:32.520 the article. If anyone knows who this man is, I 2001 01:49:32.560 --> 01:49:36.479 send my deepest sympathy. What an awful tragedy, and I 2002 01:49:36.479 --> 01:49:40.399 hope you find peace. I would also like to remain anonymous, 2003 01:49:41.000 --> 01:49:43.119 and I thank you for giving me an outlet to 2004 01:49:43.159 --> 01:49:50.880 tell my extraordinary experience. The speeding shadow me and some 2005 01:49:50.920 --> 01:49:54.399 friends were out driving around and drove back that two track. 2006 01:49:55.800 --> 01:49:57.840 We were in a sixty eight Buick and the lane 2007 01:49:57.920 --> 01:50:00.279 was so narrow the small trees and bushes were making 2008 01:50:00.319 --> 01:50:02.279 a scratching sound on the sides of the cars. We 2009 01:50:02.439 --> 01:50:06.000 drove back there, We got into a clearing back of 2010 01:50:06.119 --> 01:50:09.880 the barn and parked. It was dark out and one 2011 01:50:09.920 --> 01:50:12.479 of the guys in the car said, what was that 2012 01:50:12.680 --> 01:50:16.039 an alarming sounding voice. We said, what did you see? 2013 01:50:16.600 --> 01:50:18.840 He said he saw a shadow run from behind a 2014 01:50:18.920 --> 01:50:22.520 tree to another tree. While he was saying that, I 2015 01:50:22.560 --> 01:50:25.000 saw it dark from behind the tree with some bushes, 2016 01:50:26.159 --> 01:50:29.359 we all saw something that moved really fast. It was 2017 01:50:29.359 --> 01:50:32.800 a shadowy figure of a man, but it moved too 2018 01:50:32.880 --> 01:50:35.760 fast to be a human, like when you fast forward 2019 01:50:35.800 --> 01:50:39.560 something on a VCR. And it was getting bolder and 2020 01:50:39.640 --> 01:50:44.000 coming closer every time it sprinted around. We totally freaked. 2021 01:50:44.560 --> 01:50:46.880 My friend Billy, who was driving, fired up that old 2022 01:50:46.880 --> 01:50:49.960 buick and started driving fast and scared and ran over 2023 01:50:50.000 --> 01:50:53.720 some small trees and bounced off some bigger ones. I 2024 01:50:53.840 --> 01:50:55.680 yelled at him to slow down or he was going 2025 01:50:55.720 --> 01:50:58.279 to kill us. He put some pretty big dents in 2026 01:50:58.319 --> 01:51:00.680 that old car. As Grandpa gave him, I'll tell you 2027 01:51:00.720 --> 01:51:10.279 what signed Randall? What was it? Hi, Steve. I came 2028 01:51:10.279 --> 01:51:13.840 across your channel and have been enjoying your videos. They 2029 01:51:13.840 --> 01:51:16.279 are strange and leave us with more questions than answers. 2030 01:51:17.199 --> 01:51:19.279 I would like to share my experience in the hope 2031 01:51:19.279 --> 01:51:23.239 another First Nation or anyone really steps forward and might 2032 01:51:23.279 --> 01:51:25.239 have an answer as to what I saw that day. 2033 01:51:25.920 --> 01:51:28.479 The story took place many years ago. I was seven 2034 01:51:28.520 --> 01:51:31.600 at the time. It's a strong childhood experience that has 2035 01:51:31.600 --> 01:51:35.640 stayed with me my entire life. I remember like it 2036 01:51:35.680 --> 01:51:38.680 was yesterday. I would also like to add that just 2037 01:51:38.800 --> 01:51:42.720 last year we found out my dad has Australian Aboriginal heritage. 2038 01:51:43.319 --> 01:51:45.960 I think this is important to understand why this occurred. 2039 01:51:46.920 --> 01:51:50.159 Here goes When I was a child, my father was 2040 01:51:50.199 --> 01:51:52.439 a police officer and he was transferred to the country 2041 01:51:52.439 --> 01:51:55.479 to run their small station. It was a small country 2042 01:51:55.520 --> 01:51:58.960 town with a nearby place called Longan Hills in Western Australia. 2043 01:52:00.000 --> 01:52:02.199 One weekend, my parents decided to take my sister and 2044 01:52:02.239 --> 01:52:03.920 I on a day trip to look at some caves 2045 01:52:03.920 --> 01:52:07.159 at a traditional Aboriginal paintings inside and to climb this 2046 01:52:07.359 --> 01:52:11.159 large hill. The hill was probably only seventy meters or 2047 01:52:11.239 --> 01:52:14.000 so up the side, and there were no stairs or signs, 2048 01:52:14.159 --> 01:52:17.840 just dirt, rocks and grass. So my mom stayed down 2049 01:52:17.840 --> 01:52:19.560 in the car while my sister and father and I 2050 01:52:19.600 --> 01:52:22.359 climbed up the side of this hill. Once you read 2051 01:52:22.399 --> 01:52:24.600 the top of the hill, it Plateau's flat for about 2052 01:52:24.600 --> 01:52:28.520 fifty meters and drops down the other side. On the 2053 01:52:28.520 --> 01:52:30.640 other side, it drops down into a gully with a 2054 01:52:30.640 --> 01:52:32.720 stream at the bottom that across the river. There was 2055 01:52:32.760 --> 01:52:37.760 another hill that has ledges and caves jutting out the side. Anyway, 2056 01:52:38.319 --> 01:52:40.159 we reached the top of the hill and I remember 2057 01:52:40.199 --> 01:52:43.119 it was really strange. There were all these rock piles everywhere, 2058 01:52:43.920 --> 01:52:46.960 like something out of the Blair Witch. They had to 2059 01:52:47.039 --> 01:52:49.159 be mad made, but there must have been ten to 2060 01:52:49.159 --> 01:52:53.319 twenty of them, each about thirty centimeters tall, using rocks 2061 01:52:53.359 --> 01:52:57.039 about the size of large marbles. It was a little eerie, 2062 01:52:57.319 --> 01:53:00.560 and I walked closer to my dad. I remember I 2063 01:53:00.560 --> 01:53:03.239 turned around to look for my sister, but instead of 2064 01:53:03.239 --> 01:53:06.079 seeing her, I saw what I can only describe as 2065 01:53:06.239 --> 01:53:09.800 a traditional Aboriginal man in the one leg it stands. 2066 01:53:10.319 --> 01:53:11.920 He had a long spirit in his hand, which he 2067 01:53:11.960 --> 01:53:14.560 had pointed to the ground like a walking stick. His 2068 01:53:14.560 --> 01:53:17.439 face was painted, long hair, with something tied around his 2069 01:53:17.479 --> 01:53:21.159 forehead and a straw or brown material type skirt covering him. 2070 01:53:22.199 --> 01:53:25.359 His chest was painted in browns, reds, and whites, and 2071 01:53:25.399 --> 01:53:28.319 he had one leg tucked up so standing on one leg, 2072 01:53:28.840 --> 01:53:30.600 it was like a picture out of a history book. 2073 01:53:31.640 --> 01:53:34.479 I didn't feel afraid, and I said to my dad, look, Dad, 2074 01:53:35.000 --> 01:53:38.800 this man was a big stick. My father, being protective 2075 01:53:38.840 --> 01:53:42.279 and a copp was on high alert, asking where where 2076 01:53:42.319 --> 01:53:45.039 did you see him? He couldn't see him, and the 2077 01:53:45.079 --> 01:53:48.520 man was right there. I said, he's right there, Dad, 2078 01:53:48.920 --> 01:53:51.680 but he couldn't see him. When I turned back around, 2079 01:53:51.880 --> 01:53:55.840 the man was gone. How could that be possible? He 2080 01:53:55.880 --> 01:53:59.640 was right near us. My dad started pacing around, as 2081 01:53:59.680 --> 01:54:01.079 there was a know where to hide up there, and 2082 01:54:01.119 --> 01:54:03.720 I was trying to keep up with him. He walked 2083 01:54:03.720 --> 01:54:06.000 over the edge the other side, and there he was 2084 01:54:06.880 --> 01:54:10.479 the Aboriginal man, same stance, with the same stick, but 2085 01:54:10.560 --> 01:54:12.199 now it was on the other side of the stream, 2086 01:54:12.319 --> 01:54:14.640 staring at me from a red ledge jutting out on 2087 01:54:14.680 --> 01:54:18.840 the other hill. I yelled, there he is there. Dad pointed. 2088 01:54:19.640 --> 01:54:22.680 It would have been literally and logistically impossible for this 2089 01:54:22.760 --> 01:54:25.000 man I was seeing to have traveled that quickly in 2090 01:54:25.039 --> 01:54:28.720 a five to ten second time frame. I can't recall 2091 01:54:28.840 --> 01:54:31.239 what my dad said or did, but I know he 2092 01:54:31.279 --> 01:54:34.800 still couldn't see him. Either way, my dad decided we 2093 01:54:34.840 --> 01:54:38.039 should leave and buddle us back to the car. We 2094 01:54:38.159 --> 01:54:40.680 drove to the next stop, the caves with the traditional 2095 01:54:40.680 --> 01:54:44.199 paintings inside, but as we drew near, I felt awful 2096 01:54:44.279 --> 01:54:46.960 dread start to come over me. By the time we 2097 01:54:47.000 --> 01:54:49.840 got there, I was hysterical. I wouldn't get out of 2098 01:54:49.880 --> 01:54:52.600 the car, and I refused to go up to the caves. 2099 01:54:53.119 --> 01:54:55.399 My family were looking at me, like what is wrong 2100 01:54:55.479 --> 01:54:59.640 with you? But I didn't know myself. My mom had 2101 01:54:59.680 --> 01:55:01.239 to stay back in the car with me while my 2102 01:55:01.279 --> 01:55:04.279 sister and dad went, and I remember watching them walk 2103 01:55:04.359 --> 01:55:06.399 up to the caves and thinking I was never going 2104 01:55:06.439 --> 01:55:09.800 to see them again. The fear I felt was debilitating. 2105 01:55:10.560 --> 01:55:12.840 Nothing I know of happened, and to this day they 2106 01:55:12.840 --> 01:55:16.479 are fine. But I've always been baffled by what did 2107 01:55:16.520 --> 01:55:20.520 I see? Was it a spirit, a guardian of some type, 2108 01:55:20.800 --> 01:55:25.159 a warning, an ancestor bound to the land. I don't know. 2109 01:55:26.439 --> 01:55:28.840 What I do know is that I was very excited 2110 01:55:28.840 --> 01:55:31.600 for the caves that day, and after I saw that man. 2111 01:55:31.840 --> 01:55:36.359 Something came over me that felt like impending doom. Deep down, 2112 01:55:36.880 --> 01:55:38.600 I feel that he was telling me not to go 2113 01:55:38.680 --> 01:55:41.800 on sacred land or walk the land where the caves were. 2114 01:55:42.800 --> 01:55:46.359 What do you think? Thank you for taking the time 2115 01:55:46.399 --> 01:55:49.119 to read my email. I hope you're safe and having 2116 01:55:49.159 --> 01:55:56.199 a good day wherever you are, Signed Leah. Jellyfish entity encounter. 2117 01:55:57.960 --> 01:56:01.399 I'm forty years old and this occurred early to mid nineties. 2118 01:56:02.199 --> 01:56:04.000 I can get the time down as I was listening 2119 01:56:04.039 --> 01:56:07.199 to an Art Bell radio show with Father Malachi and 2120 01:56:07.279 --> 01:56:11.720 Martin the Exorcist. So I went to bed, hit sleep 2121 01:56:11.720 --> 01:56:15.159 on my radio fifty nine minutes and began listening to 2122 01:56:15.279 --> 01:56:18.720 Art Bell. Like I said, father Martin was explaining about 2123 01:56:18.720 --> 01:56:22.720 his exorcism experiences. I remember hitting sleep on the radio 2124 01:56:22.800 --> 01:56:27.399 again to listen longer. Now this is important. I was 2125 01:56:27.520 --> 01:56:30.279 kind of scared, so out loud, I say something to 2126 01:56:30.319 --> 01:56:32.880 the effect of I would like to see something try 2127 01:56:32.920 --> 01:56:38.399 to possess me. I fell asleep shortly after. I wait 2128 01:56:38.479 --> 01:56:42.079 to see this jellyfish entity floating at the end of 2129 01:56:42.079 --> 01:56:46.000 my bed, off to the left A little immediately hide 2130 01:56:46.079 --> 01:56:49.800 under my covers. I'm not really that terrified at this 2131 01:56:49.920 --> 01:56:55.760 exact moment, still half asleep, so virtually the same moment, 2132 01:56:55.800 --> 01:56:58.680 I noticed no radio playing, and I can see an 2133 01:56:58.720 --> 01:57:02.279 orange glow through my sh in the direction this thing 2134 01:57:02.479 --> 01:57:06.720 was okay, So I didn't want the thing to notice me. Silly, 2135 01:57:06.760 --> 01:57:10.279 but that's what I remember thinking. At that exact moment. 2136 01:57:10.520 --> 01:57:16.319 It all hits me. Art Bell, father, Malachi, exorcist, demons, 2137 01:57:16.640 --> 01:57:20.960 what I remember thinking. Right before falling asleep, the orange 2138 01:57:20.960 --> 01:57:24.880 glow became slightly brighter. I panicked and bolted for the 2139 01:57:24.880 --> 01:57:28.680 closed door. I remember using my blanket as a shield, 2140 01:57:28.720 --> 01:57:31.720 trying to block this thing's view of me, or maybe 2141 01:57:31.800 --> 01:57:35.640 my view of it. I bolted because the feeling I 2142 01:57:35.680 --> 01:57:40.479 got uttered, dread, and tear. I didn't want to see 2143 01:57:40.479 --> 01:57:43.920 this thing, didn't want it to see me, and I 2144 01:57:43.960 --> 01:57:47.760 wanted my mom. I opened the door to see my 2145 01:57:47.800 --> 01:57:50.760 mother taking off her makeup, directly across the hallway from me. 2146 01:57:51.520 --> 01:57:53.359 I jumped over the bed and slumped into the far 2147 01:57:53.439 --> 01:57:56.760 corner of the room, farthest away from the door. I 2148 01:57:56.800 --> 01:57:59.920 couldn't talk straight. I told my mother, and she was 2149 01:58:00.079 --> 01:58:04.079 eventced I was dreaming. I used to have vivid dreams 2150 01:58:04.079 --> 01:58:06.720 as a child and act some of them out. I 2151 01:58:06.840 --> 01:58:09.640 remember anything in the morning, not even the dream. Usually, 2152 01:58:10.760 --> 01:58:14.000 this thing was orange and the general shape of a 2153 01:58:14.119 --> 01:58:17.560 jellyfish had to have been five to six feet tall. 2154 01:58:18.319 --> 01:58:22.079 Bubbas had classic jellyfish shape, But I don't think it 2155 01:58:22.119 --> 01:58:27.600 was an actual phantom jellyfish. It was electric coursing orange 2156 01:58:27.600 --> 01:58:32.720 electricity ran through the entire thing, giving off light. Electricity 2157 01:58:33.000 --> 01:58:35.880 had kind of like a pattern to it. It pulset 2158 01:58:35.960 --> 01:58:39.640 light and kind of quivered or vibrated like it was 2159 01:58:39.680 --> 01:58:43.439 alive and intelligent. Only glimpsed it for one to two 2160 01:58:43.439 --> 01:58:48.600 seconds tops. Now. I basically convinced myself I was dreaming. 2161 01:58:49.920 --> 01:58:52.840 I know I wasn't dreaming. I would bet the bank 2162 01:58:52.920 --> 01:58:58.079 on it. Thanks for reading. I've experienced chills several times 2163 01:58:58.159 --> 01:59:02.079 while writing this. If you ask me, I would say 2164 01:59:02.119 --> 01:59:05.119 it was replying to my challenge. It seemed to have 2165 01:59:05.239 --> 01:59:08.039 woke me up. I just would like to know what 2166 01:59:08.079 --> 01:59:11.439 this thing is and or if anybody else has experienced 2167 01:59:11.479 --> 01:59:15.680 this entity. Can't find anything anywhere on it, I want 2168 01:59:15.720 --> 01:59:19.439 to know for sure I wasn't dreaming. Thanks for reading, 2169 01:59:20.319 --> 01:59:28.079 Signed Sarah. One night at a week long camp, I 2170 01:59:28.159 --> 01:59:30.000 decided that I would tell the story of a night 2171 01:59:30.039 --> 01:59:34.199 at a campground called Camp McGee Camp McGee is located 2172 01:59:34.199 --> 01:59:37.640 in Idaho. This took place during the summer of nineteen 2173 01:59:37.680 --> 01:59:40.960 eighty four. Every year, the sixth grade class got to 2174 01:59:40.960 --> 01:59:44.039 go to a school group camping trip. Any sixth graders 2175 01:59:44.079 --> 01:59:45.800 in the area who paid to go went for a 2176 01:59:45.840 --> 01:59:49.039 full week. It was definitely the highlight of the year. 2177 01:59:50.359 --> 01:59:52.279 On the first day of camp, we all got to 2178 01:59:52.319 --> 01:59:55.680 know those You shared a cabin with twelve cabins in total, 2179 01:59:55.960 --> 01:59:59.680 six girls cabins and six boys cabins. The cabins did 2180 01:59:59.720 --> 02:00:02.680 not have running water, so no bathroom or shower, which 2181 02:00:02.720 --> 02:00:05.800 to me was just fine. I was twelve years old, 2182 02:00:05.840 --> 02:00:09.600 and so was everyone else who went. Every evening after 2183 02:00:09.680 --> 02:00:12.000 mess hall food, we got the chance to go back 2184 02:00:12.000 --> 02:00:14.520 to their cabins and get into warmer clothes and get 2185 02:00:14.560 --> 02:00:18.359 ready for the nightly bonfire. The nightly bonfires was where 2186 02:00:18.399 --> 02:00:21.600 you told stories and sang songs, you make new friends 2187 02:00:21.640 --> 02:00:26.000 and enjoy the company. On the third night, after mess 2188 02:00:26.000 --> 02:00:28.880 hall and getting ready for the night something happened that 2189 02:00:29.000 --> 02:00:33.319 was absolutely the strangest and unexpected thing ever. About an 2190 02:00:33.319 --> 02:00:35.800 hour into the bonfire, I had to go to the bathroom. 2191 02:00:36.600 --> 02:00:39.239 I really didn't want to go alone, so I asked 2192 02:00:39.239 --> 02:00:40.960 a couple of girls, and they said they would go. 2193 02:00:41.319 --> 02:00:43.119 I ended up with three others who had the same 2194 02:00:43.159 --> 02:00:47.119 agenda as me, potty break. As I said, no bathrooms 2195 02:00:47.119 --> 02:00:49.119 in the cabin, so we had to make our way 2196 02:00:49.159 --> 02:00:50.960 to one of the outhouses that was closest to the 2197 02:00:51.000 --> 02:00:54.600 bonfire area. The only light we had was the bonfire, 2198 02:00:54.640 --> 02:00:58.000 which was getting further away with every step. The next 2199 02:00:58.039 --> 02:01:01.159 light was a street lamp, very dim light, though the 2200 02:01:01.199 --> 02:01:03.800 street lamp was barely illuminating a sharp corner on the 2201 02:01:03.840 --> 02:01:07.439 dirt road leading to the camp. I saw the outhouse 2202 02:01:07.479 --> 02:01:09.560 and was getting anxious because I really had to go. 2203 02:01:10.439 --> 02:01:13.960 That's when I got grabbed on my right arm tightly, 2204 02:01:14.760 --> 02:01:17.720 which stopped me in my tracks. I was getting ready 2205 02:01:17.760 --> 02:01:20.199 to ask why she did that when all four of 2206 02:01:20.279 --> 02:01:24.760 us saw it. Walking steadily down the dirt road was 2207 02:01:24.800 --> 02:01:31.239 a figure humanoid shape, tall, wide, and very quiet. It 2208 02:01:31.279 --> 02:01:33.399 was at least nine to nine and a half feet tall. 2209 02:01:34.399 --> 02:01:36.920 Its shoulders were at least three and a half feet wide. 2210 02:01:37.960 --> 02:01:40.319 It easily weighed in the room of five hundred or 2211 02:01:40.319 --> 02:01:44.319 more pounds. As we stood there gripping each other's arms, 2212 02:01:44.920 --> 02:01:48.359 it turned its head and looked right at us. It 2213 02:01:48.399 --> 02:01:52.520 stared us for probably thirty seconds. It never stopped walking. 2214 02:01:52.760 --> 02:01:55.800 It kept a steady stride, and then slowly turned its 2215 02:01:55.800 --> 02:01:59.239 head back in the direction it was walking. It walked 2216 02:01:59.279 --> 02:02:02.359 directly under the street lamb, and that's how we were 2217 02:02:02.479 --> 02:02:06.359 very positive that it was a male. Its hair was 2218 02:02:06.399 --> 02:02:09.159 so gray that we had a hard time seeing any brown, red, 2219 02:02:09.239 --> 02:02:12.560 or black hair. He was slightly bent forward, and I 2220 02:02:12.640 --> 02:02:15.720 mean slightly, even had a slight limb, as if he 2221 02:02:15.760 --> 02:02:19.479 was favoring one of his legs or hips. I've been 2222 02:02:19.520 --> 02:02:22.079 back up there once a while back, but the camp 2223 02:02:22.119 --> 02:02:25.039 has been closed for years. Just up the road, it 2224 02:02:25.119 --> 02:02:27.520 was a forest ranger station and that has become a 2225 02:02:27.680 --> 02:02:32.520 historical landmark. I lost touch with the other girls long ago, 2226 02:02:33.000 --> 02:02:37.119 but I often wonder if they ever told anyone, And 2227 02:02:37.159 --> 02:02:41.479 before anyone says, why didn't you tell a counselor we did. 2228 02:02:42.399 --> 02:02:44.680 None of them could wrap their heads around what we saw, 2229 02:02:44.720 --> 02:02:47.000 and because of that, none of them believed we were 2230 02:02:47.000 --> 02:02:53.039 telling the truth. We did dub him mister McGee. This 2231 02:02:53.119 --> 02:02:56.000 experience made this week of camping the best week ever. 2232 02:02:56.760 --> 02:03:04.880 Thank you guys, Signed c Allen CDA Idaho Poe House Haunting. 2233 02:03:05.960 --> 02:03:09.119 Hi Steve. This was from a Facebook post I did 2234 02:03:09.159 --> 02:03:13.399 because I told the story so many times. I believe 2235 02:03:13.520 --> 02:03:15.880 the ghostly toucher on the stairs is believed to be 2236 02:03:15.960 --> 02:03:20.399 pos ant Virginia. I believe the ghostly toucher on the 2237 02:03:20.399 --> 02:03:23.600 stairs is believed to be pos ant. Virginia was ten 2238 02:03:23.640 --> 02:03:27.319 at the time. She was thirteen when they married. There 2239 02:03:27.319 --> 02:03:30.199 are lots of other paranormal phenomenon as well, but the 2240 02:03:30.239 --> 02:03:33.479 book I was reading mentioned the stairs specifically, and it's 2241 02:03:33.520 --> 02:03:37.520 not something I knew. My mother originally had a cadre 2242 02:03:37.600 --> 02:03:40.239 of doctors recommended by my nurse aunt. When she was 2243 02:03:40.279 --> 02:03:44.279 pregnant with me. I kept trying to abort, apparently probably 2244 02:03:44.439 --> 02:03:48.840 having second thoughts about another reincarnation lol, and they gave 2245 02:03:48.880 --> 02:03:50.800 her some drug which could have been the one that 2246 02:03:50.880 --> 02:03:55.079 caused cancer we later found out. Anyway, my mom didn't 2247 02:03:55.119 --> 02:03:58.840 want that and switched doctors. My dad was into psychology 2248 02:03:58.880 --> 02:04:02.079 and young Freud, and he helped her with self hypnosis, 2249 02:04:02.119 --> 02:04:06.239 and she decided on a natural, drug free childbirth. She'd 2250 02:04:06.279 --> 02:04:10.840 always wanted a daughter, especially, and that was me. She 2251 02:04:10.960 --> 02:04:14.239 ended up going to doctor Dorman, who actually died right 2252 02:04:14.279 --> 02:04:19.079 before my birthday in nineteen ninety eight. Doctor Dorman worked 2253 02:04:19.079 --> 02:04:22.680 at a church home hospital and This is near Westminster 2254 02:04:22.720 --> 02:04:26.199 Presbyterian Church and Cemetery where Edgar Allan Poe is buried, 2255 02:04:26.600 --> 02:04:30.680 and is the hospital he died in around sixth grade. 2256 02:04:30.800 --> 02:04:33.479 I was very active and happy in grade school. I 2257 02:04:33.520 --> 02:04:35.640 loved my teacher and she let me do things like 2258 02:04:35.720 --> 02:04:39.560 former school newspaper, The Hub, and I did a report 2259 02:04:39.600 --> 02:04:43.960 paper on Edgar Allan Poe. Now, I've had experiences all 2260 02:04:44.000 --> 02:04:47.840 my life and I loved her, but those days I 2261 02:04:47.920 --> 02:04:50.600 was really more about animals. I wanted to be a 2262 02:04:50.720 --> 02:04:53.479 zoologist and worked in the animal field even a little 2263 02:04:53.520 --> 02:04:57.119 after getting married in nineteen ninety two, and I was 2264 02:04:57.199 --> 02:05:01.199 focused on my report. My brother ended up having the experience, 2265 02:05:01.199 --> 02:05:03.760 and he couldn't be more unlike me where that's concerned, 2266 02:05:04.319 --> 02:05:07.159 not at all a believer of any kind. He was 2267 02:05:07.199 --> 02:05:11.159 only eight, being two years younger than me. However, my brother, 2268 02:05:11.399 --> 02:05:13.840 mother and I went to the Edgar Allen Poe House 2269 02:05:14.319 --> 02:05:18.439 my first visit. It's a small house. There's a lot 2270 02:05:18.479 --> 02:05:20.880 of stories about it. It was shut up and abandoned 2271 02:05:20.880 --> 02:05:23.439 for many years, and the part of town was not 2272 02:05:23.479 --> 02:05:27.319 the greatest area, but it was never broken into or vandalized. 2273 02:05:27.680 --> 02:05:33.279 Because of various strange activity reported lights, etc. My mother 2274 02:05:33.319 --> 02:05:35.800 and I went up the small staircase to the garret room. 2275 02:05:36.800 --> 02:05:40.399 My brother was behind us some way, probably looking at things. 2276 02:05:40.920 --> 02:05:43.119 The stuffed raven used to be in that room on 2277 02:05:43.159 --> 02:05:46.319 the writing desk, and my mother and I exclaimed that 2278 02:05:46.560 --> 02:05:50.039 there's a raven up there. The next thing that happened 2279 02:05:50.119 --> 02:05:52.399 was the sound of my brother falling down the staircase. 2280 02:05:53.479 --> 02:05:55.359 I laughed and joked that it was because we said 2281 02:05:55.399 --> 02:05:57.760 there was a raven up there, but I knew that 2282 02:05:57.800 --> 02:06:01.960 didn't scare my brother. I was just We actually had 2283 02:06:02.000 --> 02:06:04.920 no idea what happened, and my brother went outside and 2284 02:06:04.920 --> 02:06:08.479 would not come back in. He waited outside the front door. 2285 02:06:09.479 --> 02:06:11.520 Later he told us something had touched him on the 2286 02:06:11.560 --> 02:06:14.840 shoulder and that caused him to fall because it scared him. 2287 02:06:16.039 --> 02:06:18.680 Years later, when I was married and reading a book 2288 02:06:18.680 --> 02:06:21.960 in bed about haunted places in Baltimore, it said the 2289 02:06:22.000 --> 02:06:25.800 stairway is off to the place people report getting touched. 2290 02:06:26.600 --> 02:06:28.399 I told my ex husband about the story. I was 2291 02:06:28.439 --> 02:06:32.079 so surprised. One other strange thing, aside from both of 2292 02:06:32.199 --> 02:06:35.680 us being born where Poe died. My middle name is Virginia. 2293 02:06:36.399 --> 02:06:40.119 Oh's wife's name was Virginia. My brother's middle name was 2294 02:06:40.239 --> 02:06:42.920 in keeping with the male side of the family's name Edgar. 2295 02:06:43.960 --> 02:06:46.600 When my brother was very little, he used to say 2296 02:06:46.680 --> 02:06:56.520 he was going to marry me. Signed Ruth sleep paralysis story. 2297 02:06:57.159 --> 02:06:59.880 Hi Steve, love your shows. Keep up the amazing war. 2298 02:07:00.960 --> 02:07:04.800 Here's my story. Always enjoyed spending the night with my 2299 02:07:04.880 --> 02:07:07.880 first love and very best friend, Josh at his mom's house. 2300 02:07:08.640 --> 02:07:10.960 Although since I had started saying with him on the 2301 02:07:10.960 --> 02:07:14.199 weekends back in nineteen ninety nine, I always felt a 2302 02:07:14.239 --> 02:07:17.199 feeling like I was being watched. Ever feeling alone when 2303 02:07:17.239 --> 02:07:20.279 you're the only one in the house. Back then, his 2304 02:07:20.399 --> 02:07:22.840 older sister told me about seeing a little ghost girl 2305 02:07:22.920 --> 02:07:26.199 in the attic and ghost soldiers marching up the driveway. 2306 02:07:27.079 --> 02:07:29.399 I originally thought she was toying with me to scare me, 2307 02:07:29.920 --> 02:07:32.680 but as the years have gone on, she still sticks 2308 02:07:32.760 --> 02:07:35.880 with these stories. It was a somewhat old house, being 2309 02:07:35.880 --> 02:07:39.199 built in nineteen forty three. It had a very creepy 2310 02:07:39.279 --> 02:07:43.359 vibe about it. Fast forward it's two thousand and one 2311 02:07:43.479 --> 02:07:46.399 and I'm sixteen years old. I'd spent the night with 2312 02:07:46.439 --> 02:07:49.840 my now fiance. I woke up the next morning to 2313 02:07:49.920 --> 02:07:52.880 the sounds of everyone in the kitchen talking and eating breakfast. 2314 02:07:53.960 --> 02:07:56.720 My fiance was up before me and had joined them. 2315 02:07:57.560 --> 02:08:01.640 I quickly realized that I couldn't move, no matter how 2316 02:08:01.640 --> 02:08:06.439 hard I tried. I'm locked in place. I'm starting to panic, 2317 02:08:06.520 --> 02:08:09.439 heart racing, thoughts running wild. I tried to call out 2318 02:08:09.439 --> 02:08:12.600 to Josh, I try to call out to anybody. I 2319 02:08:12.640 --> 02:08:16.119 couldn't talk, I couldn't scream. All I could do is 2320 02:08:16.199 --> 02:08:20.159 look around and think. As I lay there silently screaming 2321 02:08:20.199 --> 02:08:22.239 and trying to force any kind of movement from any 2322 02:08:22.239 --> 02:08:25.239 part of my body, I started to think to myself, 2323 02:08:25.800 --> 02:08:29.960 this is how I die. Biting these thoughts, I decided 2324 02:08:30.000 --> 02:08:32.199 I was not going to succumb to whatever force had 2325 02:08:32.239 --> 02:08:36.239 taken over me. I pushed myself forward with all my might, 2326 02:08:37.159 --> 02:08:41.760 and finally I broke free. Instantly, as I sat up, 2327 02:08:42.159 --> 02:08:44.359 I saw a dark shadow move away from my body, 2328 02:08:44.359 --> 02:08:47.560 across the wall to my right and slowly flade. I 2329 02:08:47.640 --> 02:08:50.560 was so freaked out I joined the others in the 2330 02:08:50.640 --> 02:08:53.760 kitchen and tried to act normal. I confided in Josh 2331 02:08:53.800 --> 02:08:56.039 what had happened, but I left out the part about 2332 02:08:56.039 --> 02:08:58.920 the shadow, and I'm really not sure why. Maybe I 2333 02:08:58.960 --> 02:09:02.439 didn't want to sound completely crazy. I don't know. On 2334 02:09:02.479 --> 02:09:04.399 the way home that day, as I was driving down 2335 02:09:04.439 --> 02:09:08.039 the road, I felt the unmistakable feeling of someone kicking 2336 02:09:08.039 --> 02:09:10.760 the back of my seat. I look in my mirror 2337 02:09:10.800 --> 02:09:14.439 and there's nothing there. I felt this happen several times 2338 02:09:14.520 --> 02:09:17.800 before I finally reached my house, thankful that the fifteen 2339 02:09:17.840 --> 02:09:22.079 minute road trip was over. Past forward two weekends, I 2340 02:09:22.159 --> 02:09:24.600 come in from Joshus after spending the weekend with him. 2341 02:09:25.199 --> 02:09:27.239 My mom tells me the story of how she and 2342 02:09:27.279 --> 02:09:30.840 my brother were up late that Saturday night watching a movie. 2343 02:09:31.039 --> 02:09:32.600 She says they were sitting in the dark and my 2344 02:09:32.640 --> 02:09:34.399 brother asked her why I didn't want to watch the 2345 02:09:34.439 --> 02:09:37.119 movie with him. She told him I was staying at 2346 02:09:37.159 --> 02:09:40.279 Josh's that night and wasn't home. He said he had 2347 02:09:40.319 --> 02:09:42.159 just seen me walk by in front of the TV. 2348 02:09:43.239 --> 02:09:46.479 She said to him, that wasn't your sister. She's not here. 2349 02:09:47.720 --> 02:09:50.159 He totally freaked out by this and goes to check 2350 02:09:50.159 --> 02:09:52.079 my room and then the rest of the house, only 2351 02:09:52.119 --> 02:09:55.520 to confirm that I was not home. My mom had 2352 02:09:55.520 --> 02:09:58.560 seen the dark shadow go with the TV. She didn't 2353 02:09:58.560 --> 02:10:00.800 say anything to him because she didn't want to scare him. 2354 02:10:01.520 --> 02:10:03.359 She knew they were the only two people in the 2355 02:10:03.359 --> 02:10:06.840 house at that time. The story chills me to the core. 2356 02:10:07.760 --> 02:10:10.000 It only confirms what happened a couple of weeks prior 2357 02:10:10.039 --> 02:10:12.520 to me. I told my mom what happened to me 2358 02:10:12.560 --> 02:10:14.880 when I awoke that morning a couple of weekends agoing 2359 02:10:14.920 --> 02:10:16.800 about the kicking on the back of my car seat 2360 02:10:16.840 --> 02:10:20.359 on the way home. She was horrified. She told me 2361 02:10:20.399 --> 02:10:23.680 that I brought something home, spirit or a demon, but 2362 02:10:23.760 --> 02:10:28.119 definitely something. I'm now thirty six. I still live in 2363 02:10:28.159 --> 02:10:30.520 the same house. I bought it from my parents and 2364 02:10:30.560 --> 02:10:34.600 they downsized over the years. I never experienced anything else 2365 02:10:34.640 --> 02:10:37.520 from this shadow entity, apart from thinking I had see 2366 02:10:37.520 --> 02:10:39.680 something out of the court in my eye, or being 2367 02:10:39.760 --> 02:10:43.199 watched or not alone, or something to that effect. When 2368 02:10:43.239 --> 02:10:46.359 I was roughly twenty five, I battled some serious demons 2369 02:10:46.359 --> 02:10:50.000 of my own with prescription painkillers and insomnia, among other things. 2370 02:10:50.560 --> 02:10:53.199 I started to experience what the doctor later described as 2371 02:10:53.279 --> 02:10:58.239 sleep paralysis every single night for a while, and then 2372 02:10:58.279 --> 02:11:01.720 it slowly dissipated. It was pretty common and almost a 2373 02:11:01.720 --> 02:11:04.119 part of my nightly routine for about three years. Though 2374 02:11:04.920 --> 02:11:07.520 some of the scariest things I've ever seen in my life. 2375 02:11:08.960 --> 02:11:11.199 There's no fear like waking up in a dark room 2376 02:11:11.359 --> 02:11:14.000 lit only by moonlight, with a feeling of something holding 2377 02:11:14.039 --> 02:11:17.199 you down. Then the covers slowly rise in front of 2378 02:11:17.199 --> 02:11:18.760 your face and all you can see is a red 2379 02:11:18.800 --> 02:11:22.119 eyed demon of the wide drooling mouth, growling and clawing 2380 02:11:22.119 --> 02:11:25.279 aint your flesh. Thank God, those days seem to be over. 2381 02:11:26.000 --> 02:11:29.319 I can understand the medical definition of sleep proalysis, but 2382 02:11:29.439 --> 02:11:32.000 until you've been there, I don't think you can really 2383 02:11:32.039 --> 02:11:35.680 grasp how scary these episodes are. And why is it 2384 02:11:36.079 --> 02:11:39.279 when you pray only then does this evil leave you? 2385 02:11:40.319 --> 02:11:45.640 Medical or spiritual slash paranormal. It's hugely debated online. As 2386 02:11:45.640 --> 02:11:48.600 I've researched it over the years, I really don't recall 2387 02:11:48.680 --> 02:11:52.359 one person that has ever experienced it, believing the medical definition. 2388 02:11:52.479 --> 02:11:56.319 Though either way, I know that first experience was paranormal 2389 02:11:56.359 --> 02:11:58.640 in nature because I'm not the only one who saw it. 2390 02:11:59.600 --> 02:12:02.359 Mom's it still gives me hell for bringing that thing home. 2391 02:12:03.560 --> 02:12:06.439 To conclude my story, Josh and I dated for five 2392 02:12:06.520 --> 02:12:09.800 years before we decided to break up. For twenty years, 2393 02:12:09.880 --> 02:12:13.439 he was my very, very best friend. He was like home, 2394 02:12:13.760 --> 02:12:16.880 my comfort zone, and we never stopped loving each other. 2395 02:12:17.079 --> 02:12:20.319 It was beautiful. We both went on to Mary me 2396 02:12:20.479 --> 02:12:23.880 twice to his once He always said he didn't want kids. 2397 02:12:24.560 --> 02:12:27.239 I tried and tried to talk him into it, telling 2398 02:12:27.279 --> 02:12:29.239 him that he needed someone to carry on his name 2399 02:12:29.279 --> 02:12:32.520 and he was the last male in his family. One 2400 02:12:32.600 --> 02:12:35.319 day he calls me and he changed his mind. His 2401 02:12:35.359 --> 02:12:38.319 wife is pregnant. I was overjoyed at the thought of 2402 02:12:38.319 --> 02:12:41.199 a little Josh running around. He called me that day 2403 02:12:41.239 --> 02:12:43.439 in April twenty eighteen to tell me about the rival 2404 02:12:43.520 --> 02:12:47.359 of his baby, boy, Jack's. It was a quick conversation. 2405 02:12:48.479 --> 02:12:50.119 Had I known it would be our last, I would 2406 02:12:50.159 --> 02:12:53.600 have kept him on the phone much much longer. Josh 2407 02:12:53.680 --> 02:12:57.720 passed away October twenty eighteen, leaving behind his wife, new baby, 2408 02:12:58.079 --> 02:13:00.479 and many many more that loved him. He was thirty 2409 02:13:00.479 --> 02:13:04.840 four years old, a marine vet that proudly served his country. 2410 02:13:04.920 --> 02:13:07.359 He didn't use drugs, and although he drank heavily in 2411 02:13:07.439 --> 02:13:10.039 prior years, he'd quit that with becoming a family man. 2412 02:13:11.479 --> 02:13:13.760 He was a vibrant, healthy, thirty four year old male 2413 02:13:13.800 --> 02:13:16.079 with no history of blood pressure or anything like that. 2414 02:13:16.960 --> 02:13:18.760 He went to the hospital with a severe headache on 2415 02:13:18.800 --> 02:13:21.720 Tuesday and was pronounced dead by Sunday with a stroke. 2416 02:13:22.960 --> 02:13:26.399 This has devastated me. I cannot wrap my head around it. 2417 02:13:27.800 --> 02:13:29.720 Although I could have left out that part and made 2418 02:13:29.720 --> 02:13:32.720 my story shorter, I wanted to continue our twenty year 2419 02:13:32.800 --> 02:13:35.760 chapter to be nostalgic and also to ask you or 2420 02:13:35.800 --> 02:13:37.800 any listeners of your channel what they make of this 2421 02:13:37.920 --> 02:13:41.439 very sudden and unexpected passing. It just doesn't feel right 2422 02:13:41.479 --> 02:13:45.319 to me. How does a healthy human just die? I 2423 02:13:45.399 --> 02:13:49.239 was struck no less anyway, guys, thanks for listening to 2424 02:13:49.279 --> 02:13:51.680 my story and my continued rambles of my good old 2425 02:13:51.760 --> 02:13:56.159 days with my best friend. Love you guys, Signed Melissa 2426 02:13:58.680 --> 02:14:04.319 Werewolf Entity. So love the stories and videos. Take them 2427 02:14:04.359 --> 02:14:06.479 all with a grain of salt because the vast majority 2428 02:14:06.479 --> 02:14:08.479 of people are liars in one way or another inherently, 2429 02:14:09.039 --> 02:14:11.640 but also know from personal experience that things like the 2430 02:14:11.680 --> 02:14:15.399 stories in your videos, these types of things do happen alarmingly, 2431 02:14:15.760 --> 02:14:20.000 often rarely leaving behind even the slightest concrete evidence. So 2432 02:14:20.359 --> 02:14:22.399 I do believe that all the things could have happened 2433 02:14:22.439 --> 02:14:26.319 to these individuals, but remained constantly skeptical about everyone's stories. 2434 02:14:26.640 --> 02:14:29.399 But who knows. Maybe the only way we could even 2435 02:14:29.439 --> 02:14:31.199 hope to possibly solve some of the missing four to 2436 02:14:31.199 --> 02:14:33.920 one one cases and causes is my finding out from 2437 02:14:33.960 --> 02:14:37.159 those lucky individuals who made it no. Four to one 2438 02:14:37.199 --> 02:14:40.119 one story but still got some weird stories. So here's 2439 02:14:40.159 --> 02:14:42.520 one of the most strange. And for me, the kind 2440 02:14:42.560 --> 02:14:45.560 of fear that paralyzes you. It kind of leaves one 2441 02:14:45.680 --> 02:14:48.159 stuttering with no words, and even if you did, you 2442 02:14:48.159 --> 02:14:51.319 wouldn't even be able to audibly form a full word. 2443 02:14:51.960 --> 02:14:53.680 So here's my story, and you can believe it or not, 2444 02:14:53.800 --> 02:14:57.680 but either way it happened. This occurred around nineteen ninety 2445 02:14:57.680 --> 02:15:00.720 four ninety five. I was around nine or ten years. 2446 02:15:01.119 --> 02:15:03.239 I live in Tucson, Arizona and half for most of 2447 02:15:03.239 --> 02:15:05.800 my life thus far, and live within eighth of a 2448 02:15:05.840 --> 02:15:09.079 mile or less from the largest Hohokom Indian burying ground 2449 02:15:09.279 --> 02:15:12.199 and ceremonial complex, where they found at least four hundred 2450 02:15:12.239 --> 02:15:17.039 remains in countless artifacts, and it's currently being developed for houses. 2451 02:15:17.079 --> 02:15:20.079 As I typed this straight right on top, Oh my god, 2452 02:15:20.159 --> 02:15:23.359 those poor people. Anyways, this house I lived in as 2453 02:15:23.399 --> 02:15:26.199 I grew up was very, very haunted. All of her 2454 02:15:26.239 --> 02:15:28.159 dogs ran away and got hit by cars, and you 2455 02:15:28.199 --> 02:15:30.199 couldn't drag her dogs to one side of the yard, 2456 02:15:30.720 --> 02:15:33.039 and when you were anywhere in sight of that side 2457 02:15:33.039 --> 02:15:36.279 of yard, your back burned from the overwhelming feeling of 2458 02:15:36.319 --> 02:15:39.640 being intensely washed. When I would have friends over and 2459 02:15:39.680 --> 02:15:42.199 we would run around and play guns or tag, I 2460 02:15:42.199 --> 02:15:44.359 would notice that my friends, who had no concept or 2461 02:15:44.359 --> 02:15:46.800 knowledge of the paranormal or the experiences with the paranormal 2462 02:15:46.880 --> 02:15:50.680 occurring in my house, they would always unconsciously only play 2463 02:15:50.680 --> 02:15:53.880 on one side of the yard. So I always had 2464 02:15:53.920 --> 02:15:57.239 scary things happening to me, and according to my mom 2465 02:15:57.239 --> 02:16:00.199 and dad, was even having those types of experiences as 2466 02:16:00.199 --> 02:16:03.039 a baby. So I was scared of the dark, or 2467 02:16:03.079 --> 02:16:05.199 should I say that things that come out of the dark, 2468 02:16:06.000 --> 02:16:07.800 Things that are so dark that even in a pitch 2469 02:16:07.840 --> 02:16:10.880 black room, the entities are so much darker than that. 2470 02:16:11.319 --> 02:16:14.720 Things that can touch, hit, scratch, bite, choke and harm you. 2471 02:16:15.479 --> 02:16:18.920 They can manipulate your thoughts and dreams. They can reach 2472 02:16:18.960 --> 02:16:21.279 out and touch you while you're at your most vulnerable. 2473 02:16:21.920 --> 02:16:24.720 But I digress. Let's just say I had a long, 2474 02:16:24.880 --> 02:16:27.880 terrifying build up to this story, which made the encounter 2475 02:16:27.920 --> 02:16:31.239 with something that much worse for me. So I was 2476 02:16:31.279 --> 02:16:34.760 sleeping one night and I had a dream. In my dream, 2477 02:16:34.840 --> 02:16:38.600 it was daytime, although it was really nighttime. So I 2478 02:16:38.639 --> 02:16:41.840 see like a camera angle pointing at this werewolf looking 2479 02:16:41.879 --> 02:16:44.760 creature running up my street. So I live in a 2480 02:16:44.799 --> 02:16:47.520 pretty typical residential neighborhood where I have people who live 2481 02:16:47.559 --> 02:16:50.360 around and behind me, where we share the back wall 2482 02:16:50.399 --> 02:16:52.680 in my backyard with those people who live behind me. 2483 02:16:53.559 --> 02:16:55.200 If I jump my back wall, I would be in 2484 02:16:55.200 --> 02:16:58.719 my neighbor's yard, where if you could tight rope walk, 2485 02:16:58.760 --> 02:17:01.200 you could walk in between monsters, the one behind my house, 2486 02:17:01.280 --> 02:17:03.559 in between the houses. If you walk this route, you 2487 02:17:03.559 --> 02:17:05.440 could see all the way down the street if you 2488 02:17:05.479 --> 02:17:07.120 look straight ahead, and if you turned your head to 2489 02:17:07.159 --> 02:17:09.760 the right, you would see all my neighbor's houses eventually 2490 02:17:09.760 --> 02:17:12.319 coming to my house, and if you turn your head 2491 02:17:12.360 --> 02:17:13.799 to the left, you would see the houses of the 2492 02:17:13.799 --> 02:17:17.200 people who lived behind me. In my dream, I see 2493 02:17:17.200 --> 02:17:19.879 this creature that immediately scared me running on the fence 2494 02:17:19.920 --> 02:17:22.760 line like a balance beam, and it was coming fast. 2495 02:17:24.120 --> 02:17:26.120 The way I saw him was like the action shot 2496 02:17:26.200 --> 02:17:29.479 from a movie chase scene where it was viewpoint above 2497 02:17:29.559 --> 02:17:31.479 and to the side, and it was falling along with 2498 02:17:31.520 --> 02:17:35.159 the same angle as continued running. I somehow knew he 2499 02:17:35.200 --> 02:17:38.040 was coming to my house. As he got to behind 2500 02:17:38.040 --> 02:17:40.799 my neighbor's house, I saw the two rockweilers that lived 2501 02:17:40.840 --> 02:17:43.520 in the yard directly behind my neighbor's house, meaning the 2502 02:17:43.559 --> 02:17:46.680 next yard he would come to was mine. The people's 2503 02:17:46.719 --> 02:17:50.200 dogs began very aggressively barking at this thing, and it 2504 02:17:50.360 --> 02:17:52.959 just glanced over at them and growled and showed his teeth, 2505 02:17:53.239 --> 02:17:55.399 and they barked even louder and harder, trying to get 2506 02:17:55.440 --> 02:17:58.479 at the entity, but impeded by a small fenced off 2507 02:17:58.520 --> 02:18:03.000 area under the porch. As he continued running, he arrived 2508 02:18:03.040 --> 02:18:05.959 at my house. Just as soon as he reached my house, 2509 02:18:05.959 --> 02:18:07.680 I saw him jump off the tops of the wall 2510 02:18:07.719 --> 02:18:10.079 on fences, and as soon as his feet touched the 2511 02:18:10.120 --> 02:18:13.000 ground in my yard, I immediately saw the viewpoint angle 2512 02:18:13.120 --> 02:18:16.760 change and I was now seeing through his eyes. I 2513 02:18:16.760 --> 02:18:18.959 saw him run up to my back patio glass door, 2514 02:18:19.000 --> 02:18:21.399 and again immediately upon reaching his hand out to the 2515 02:18:21.399 --> 02:18:24.360 handle of the door, I jolted and sat up out 2516 02:18:24.399 --> 02:18:27.760 of bed. I was drenched with sweat and was already 2517 02:18:27.799 --> 02:18:30.719 scared from that nightmare when I noticed that I could 2518 02:18:30.719 --> 02:18:34.239 somewhat faintly but clearly hear the dogs from my dream 2519 02:18:34.280 --> 02:18:38.200 barking just like they had been in my dream. Right 2520 02:18:38.239 --> 02:18:40.959 then I felt the temperature of my room plummet and 2521 02:18:41.040 --> 02:18:44.959 knew what was about to happen. Within three seconds or so, 2522 02:18:45.399 --> 02:18:48.200 my bedroom door swung open, and this thing walked in. 2523 02:18:49.239 --> 02:18:51.040 He was so tall that he had to bend over 2524 02:18:51.079 --> 02:18:54.239 to walk through my door. He was semi transparent and 2525 02:18:54.440 --> 02:18:56.639 almost kind of glowed, if you want to call it that. 2526 02:18:57.639 --> 02:19:01.280 He didn't emanate light, and light from him didn't illuminate 2527 02:19:01.520 --> 02:19:05.239 anything around him. He just glowed. I would say that 2528 02:19:05.280 --> 02:19:07.879 he was around eight to nine feet tall, and although 2529 02:19:07.920 --> 02:19:10.719 this sounds kind of funny now, he looked like Schewbacca 2530 02:19:10.719 --> 02:19:14.360 from Star Wars, but built like Abraham Lincoln. He had 2531 02:19:14.360 --> 02:19:16.200 pants on that were too short for his legs, and 2532 02:19:16.200 --> 02:19:19.159 they appeared to be old and torn. I assure you 2533 02:19:19.239 --> 02:19:22.079 that my little butt was scared. I might have even 2534 02:19:22.079 --> 02:19:26.079 peed myself a little. I'd just gotten brave enough to 2535 02:19:26.079 --> 02:19:28.399 sleep without a night light, and I just started sleeping 2536 02:19:28.440 --> 02:19:31.159 with my door shut finally, and in the dark, and 2537 02:19:31.200 --> 02:19:34.239 then this happened. I tried to call for my mom, 2538 02:19:34.280 --> 02:19:39.040 but I could only stutter ma, ma, Ma. I guess 2539 02:19:39.079 --> 02:19:40.879 I thought the best option was to pull the covers 2540 02:19:40.879 --> 02:19:44.280 over my head. When the initial roussals wore off, and 2541 02:19:44.319 --> 02:19:46.799 as I shook and cried in fear, in my makeshift 2542 02:19:46.840 --> 02:19:49.879 for it, and I remembered my mom always told me 2543 02:19:49.959 --> 02:19:53.200 that if I was facing something scary, to call on Jesus. 2544 02:19:53.799 --> 02:19:59.040 At first, I could only stutter je jeh jeah, and 2545 02:19:59.079 --> 02:20:02.719 then I thought it Jesus, Jesus, I said to myself 2546 02:20:03.000 --> 02:20:05.559 in my head at first, then I said it out loud, 2547 02:20:06.079 --> 02:20:08.479 and then slowly peeked out of my blanket hut and 2548 02:20:08.520 --> 02:20:11.879 saw him just grinning terribly at me. I said it again, 2549 02:20:12.040 --> 02:20:14.040 and he growled at me and showed his teeth which 2550 02:20:14.079 --> 02:20:16.319 were very large, and he turned and walked to the door, 2551 02:20:16.559 --> 02:20:19.639 bent over and walked out. Now I've used the name 2552 02:20:19.680 --> 02:20:22.760 of Jesus on many occasions when faced with any type 2553 02:20:22.799 --> 02:20:25.360 of night bumpers, and I have to say that there 2554 02:20:25.399 --> 02:20:27.959 is power in that name, but even more in the 2555 02:20:28.000 --> 02:20:32.280 claiming of his blood. It matters not whether it's boogeyman 2556 02:20:32.440 --> 02:20:36.280 wear wolves, ghosts, demons, sup of cobbers. Were those green 2557 02:20:36.319 --> 02:20:40.600 toad fungus monsters from the commercials? And well that's my story. 2558 02:20:41.159 --> 02:20:44.040 Thanks for listening. Take this however you want to take it. 2559 02:20:44.559 --> 02:20:54.760 But it happened Signs Anonymous, my daughter's experience. My family 2560 02:20:54.799 --> 02:20:56.719 and I were camping at the end of June of 2561 02:20:56.760 --> 02:20:59.799 this year. It was my husband, our daughters, a son 2562 02:20:59.879 --> 02:21:04.440 in law, and one grandchild. Everything was great. We had 2563 02:21:04.440 --> 02:21:08.600 a spectacular time. About a month later after the trip, 2564 02:21:09.200 --> 02:21:11.520 my eldest daughter, who was in a tent by herself, 2565 02:21:11.959 --> 02:21:14.280 told me about an experience she had while we were 2566 02:21:14.280 --> 02:21:17.079 in the woods. She told me that she had woken 2567 02:21:17.159 --> 02:21:20.280 during the night to a snarl like growl and what 2568 02:21:20.360 --> 02:21:23.079 she could only explain is a weight on her chest 2569 02:21:23.479 --> 02:21:26.360 and what felt like something holding her down at the shoulders. 2570 02:21:27.719 --> 02:21:31.319 When she heard this snarl slash growl, she was understandably 2571 02:21:31.360 --> 02:21:35.520 startled and thought, what the f is that she couldn't move. 2572 02:21:36.520 --> 02:21:39.280 She looked around her tent and could tell everything was secure. 2573 02:21:40.319 --> 02:21:44.200 Then the weight was gone and she bolted upright. She 2574 02:21:44.319 --> 02:21:47.200 was scared to death. She had to go to the bathroom, 2575 02:21:47.239 --> 02:21:49.239 but wasn't going to leave her tent for any reason 2576 02:21:49.319 --> 02:21:52.680 until dawn. The next morning, she woke up to a 2577 02:21:52.760 --> 02:21:57.040 horrendous nosebleed, which she never gets. I believe she had 2578 02:21:57.040 --> 02:22:00.799 a supernatural experience because I believe that there are beings 2579 02:22:00.840 --> 02:22:04.319 out in the woods that we can't explain. Thank you, 2580 02:22:05.079 --> 02:22:13.760 Julie Werewolf of Wisconsin. Hello, I have a real life 2581 02:22:13.840 --> 02:22:16.760 story I would like to share. My name is Sean 2582 02:22:17.000 --> 02:22:20.079 and I'm a truck driver from Florida. I drive all 2583 02:22:20.120 --> 02:22:23.959 over the United States and Canada. I started my career 2584 02:22:24.000 --> 02:22:27.520 in December of nineteen ninety nine. The following year, I 2585 02:22:27.520 --> 02:22:30.600 found myself driving High ninety four from Washington State to 2586 02:22:30.639 --> 02:22:35.760 New Jersey running apples and cranberries. I was twenty two 2587 02:22:35.879 --> 02:22:38.440 in two thousand and one, young and full of energy. 2588 02:22:39.520 --> 02:22:42.399 One late evening, late in the month of September, I 2589 02:22:42.440 --> 02:22:43.920 wanted to get out of the truck and get a 2590 02:22:43.920 --> 02:22:47.879 few beers. So I stopped in Toma, Wisconsin at the 2591 02:22:47.920 --> 02:22:51.159 Holiday Inn, park my truck and check in at the 2592 02:22:51.159 --> 02:22:54.879 local bar. Inside. Before I knew it, I was talking 2593 02:22:55.000 --> 02:22:57.239 and hooked up with a sweet Swedish girl who is 2594 02:22:57.280 --> 02:23:01.639 an exchange student, smoking hot little blow on. As the 2595 02:23:01.719 --> 02:23:04.200 night progressed, we lift in her car, drove around town 2596 02:23:04.239 --> 02:23:07.000 to another bar, stayed there until it closed around two 2597 02:23:07.040 --> 02:23:10.280 thirty AM or so. We spent the night partying and 2598 02:23:10.360 --> 02:23:14.360 enjoying each other's company. She looks at me and asked me, later, 2599 02:23:14.639 --> 02:23:18.120 let's go joy riding. I said, okay, both of us 2600 02:23:18.120 --> 02:23:20.159 were pretty drunk. I guess neither of us should have 2601 02:23:20.200 --> 02:23:23.040 been driving at all, but we did. We headed south 2602 02:23:23.079 --> 02:23:25.760 of town into the pitch black of the countryside as 2603 02:23:25.760 --> 02:23:29.479 the city's lights one by one disappeared. We made our 2604 02:23:29.479 --> 02:23:32.440 way to a set of railroad tracks. She stops the 2605 02:23:32.479 --> 02:23:34.680 car on the tracks. It was a yellow car, if 2606 02:23:34.719 --> 02:23:37.399 I recall, there was just enough light to see the 2607 02:23:37.440 --> 02:23:40.600 tree line across the field. We climb out and sat 2608 02:23:40.639 --> 02:23:42.959 on the hood, which coaxed me to join her in 2609 02:23:43.040 --> 02:23:47.040 a little pleasure. The mood was definitely set between us. 2610 02:23:47.639 --> 02:23:51.040 Peace and calm was simple during our passion. The only 2611 02:23:51.120 --> 02:23:53.680 light was the head lights from her car, piercing the 2612 02:23:53.680 --> 02:23:57.959 blackness of the night. It was easily past three am 2613 02:23:58.000 --> 02:24:00.600 at this point. She's lying on the hood and my 2614 02:24:00.719 --> 02:24:04.879 back has turned up my surroundings. Suddenly we both heard 2615 02:24:04.879 --> 02:24:07.399 a god awful cry, like a howl from a nightmare. 2616 02:24:08.239 --> 02:24:10.600 It was louder than any line, and a measure of 2617 02:24:10.639 --> 02:24:13.440 equal size and piercing the inner core of us both. 2618 02:24:14.040 --> 02:24:17.840 It literally went through me. It definitely snuck up on us. 2619 02:24:18.239 --> 02:24:22.200 My blood instantly ran cold, I went stone sober, my 2620 02:24:22.280 --> 02:24:25.920 heart frozen in pure and utter fright, true and pure fear. 2621 02:24:27.479 --> 02:24:29.840 I could feel whatever it was, breath on my neck. 2622 02:24:30.200 --> 02:24:32.719 I could hear its breath as I frozen in my position. 2623 02:24:33.920 --> 02:24:36.479 She leaned up very slowly, looking over my shoulder, and 2624 02:24:36.479 --> 02:24:38.520 I could see the reflection in her eyes of the beast. 2625 02:24:39.559 --> 02:24:42.959 BLOOD curdling scream came next as we both ran for 2626 02:24:43.079 --> 02:24:46.040 the doors of her car. I was driving and in 2627 02:24:46.079 --> 02:24:48.520 full reverse, with her beside me on the passenger seat. 2628 02:24:50.040 --> 02:24:52.479 We raced to an intersection, flipped the car around back 2629 02:24:52.479 --> 02:24:55.200 to Tomba. We went, with dirt and gravel flying in 2630 02:24:55.239 --> 02:24:58.559 the rubber burning. She was begging me not to drop 2631 02:24:58.600 --> 02:25:01.680 her off at home. She was beyond frightened to death. 2632 02:25:02.680 --> 02:25:04.760 If our hair would have turned white, it would not 2633 02:25:04.799 --> 02:25:07.399 have been a shock to me, as I was equally 2634 02:25:07.479 --> 02:25:10.760 frightened with her over the whole encounter as well. We 2635 02:25:10.799 --> 02:25:13.000 went back to my truck until daybreak and awoke in 2636 02:25:13.079 --> 02:25:17.319 each other's arms. I will never forget that night, nor 2637 02:25:17.399 --> 02:25:20.719 the beast that hunts the countryside. A short term later, 2638 02:25:20.840 --> 02:25:23.440 I ran across an article called the Beast of Bray Road. 2639 02:25:24.479 --> 02:25:28.440 Strange stories, legends, folklore, werewolves or dog men. I can 2640 02:25:28.479 --> 02:25:30.760 honestly say I will not go on the countryside at 2641 02:25:30.840 --> 02:25:33.639 night to this day. It scares the hell out of me. 2642 02:25:34.920 --> 02:25:38.559 There's something out there, and it's no housecat. I only 2643 02:25:38.600 --> 02:25:41.079 have a fear of God, and when I survived was 2644 02:25:41.120 --> 02:25:45.520 that deadly nightmare. I'm a strong man, god fearing growing 2645 02:25:45.639 --> 02:25:48.200 up in the North Florida woods and swamps, hunting and such. 2646 02:25:49.000 --> 02:25:53.920 It was no normal animal, but something else. Deep in 2647 02:25:53.959 --> 02:25:56.120 my heart and soul, I believe we were lucky and 2648 02:25:56.159 --> 02:25:59.559 survived an attack from a werewolf. I'm not a coward, 2649 02:25:59.559 --> 02:26:02.639 and I'm not scared to say that the legend is true. 2650 02:26:02.959 --> 02:26:06.440 Watch your back in the north Woods. Don't ever trust 2651 02:26:06.440 --> 02:26:10.680 the dark around you. Ps It's all fun and games 2652 02:26:10.799 --> 02:26:13.840 until it happens to you. I don't laugh at people's 2653 02:26:13.879 --> 02:26:17.239 stories now, because this was mine. My heart goes out 2654 02:26:17.280 --> 02:26:19.879 to the missing and the disappeared ones and their families. 2655 02:26:20.600 --> 02:26:28.360 You're not alone. Signed sean stick being encounter. My experience 2656 02:26:28.399 --> 02:26:31.000 with a stick being wasn't unpleasant because it was so 2657 02:26:31.079 --> 02:26:35.280 mischievous and made me smile. This was thirty years ago, 2658 02:26:35.399 --> 02:26:37.760 and I collected bare winter branches from the floor of 2659 02:26:37.760 --> 02:26:39.920 the woods to display in a white china vase in 2660 02:26:39.959 --> 02:26:43.239 my home. After a few days, I started to find 2661 02:26:43.280 --> 02:26:46.360 things disappearing, then a little time later, finding the missing 2662 02:26:46.360 --> 02:26:50.479 object in a ridiculously visible place, example, losing my watch 2663 02:26:50.520 --> 02:26:53.319 from beside my kitchen sink and finding it balanced on 2664 02:26:53.360 --> 02:26:55.639 the rim of the bath a floor above me, and 2665 02:26:55.840 --> 02:26:57.840 after I'd had a bath, when there was no sign 2666 02:26:57.840 --> 02:27:02.399 of my watch there time I saw peripherally a small 2667 02:27:02.479 --> 02:27:06.000 black knobby stick man about eighteen inches high and twig limbs, 2668 02:27:06.440 --> 02:27:09.559 about a stick as your little finger, an oval, smooth face, 2669 02:27:09.760 --> 02:27:14.719 sparkling eyes, thin lift, big grin, and really funny nub 2670 02:27:14.719 --> 02:27:18.079 black hair and frondy bits too, and a darkesh charcoal 2671 02:27:18.120 --> 02:27:21.639 color peeping at me from various places. And I would 2672 02:27:21.680 --> 02:27:24.360 hear a rather delightful, tinkly laugh, and I knew it 2673 02:27:24.360 --> 02:27:26.200 meant me no harm and was having fun with me. 2674 02:27:26.680 --> 02:27:30.280 So I began chatting with him. Knew he was mailed somehow, 2675 02:27:30.920 --> 02:27:32.879 as if he were just a pal or friend, visiting 2676 02:27:32.920 --> 02:27:35.200 me and leaving out nuts and honey in a tiny 2677 02:27:35.200 --> 02:27:37.120 pot and bits of fruit at night, and it was 2678 02:27:37.159 --> 02:27:40.639 always gone in the morning, even the tiny pot. I 2679 02:27:40.719 --> 02:27:43.760 knew after time that he wasn't there by chance, so 2680 02:27:43.799 --> 02:27:46.120 I thought back to see when he may have arrived. 2681 02:27:46.760 --> 02:27:49.000 It didn't take long to realize it was the sticks 2682 02:27:49.000 --> 02:27:52.520 I'd taken he'd come with them, so I took him 2683 02:27:52.520 --> 02:27:54.399 from the vase and announced I was sorry I'd taken 2684 02:27:54.440 --> 02:27:57.079 the twigs without permission and was taking them back where 2685 02:27:57.079 --> 02:27:59.680 I'd found them, but that I'd enjoyed his company and 2686 02:27:59.719 --> 02:28:02.479 please he'd liked my food gifts, and he was welcome 2687 02:28:02.520 --> 02:28:06.760 to return anytime. I returned the sticks and twigs and 2688 02:28:06.760 --> 02:28:09.440 said sorry for just taking them, and left, but learned 2689 02:28:09.479 --> 02:28:12.639 a valuable lesson. Never to take things from nature, but 2690 02:28:12.879 --> 02:28:17.680 always ask permission first. It's so important because nature spirits 2691 02:28:17.680 --> 02:28:20.840 can cause you misfortune even illness, if you disrespect them. 2692 02:28:21.360 --> 02:28:24.479 I always ask, even when berry picking, and if I 2693 02:28:24.479 --> 02:28:28.920 feel a negative atmosphere, I go somewhere else. I used 2694 02:28:28.920 --> 02:28:32.360 to call my visitor twig Man, and yes, he occasionally returned, 2695 02:28:32.399 --> 02:28:35.879 and I gave him food gifts, and sometimes he left 2696 02:28:35.920 --> 02:28:39.799 me seeds which I planted. This is true, and it 2697 02:28:39.879 --> 02:28:42.559 never struck me as being odd or thinking I was delusional. 2698 02:28:43.319 --> 02:28:46.399 I'm very stoic and level headed, but I'm not blinkered. 2699 02:28:47.040 --> 02:28:50.200 Please respect nature and it will respect you and often 2700 02:28:50.239 --> 02:28:53.200 give you things. Money can't buy good things for your 2701 02:28:53.200 --> 02:29:01.719 well being. Thanks signed anonymous shadow entity account. This happened 2702 02:29:01.760 --> 02:29:04.600 to me in twenty sixteen, I moved from New Mexico 2703 02:29:04.639 --> 02:29:07.799 to Washington State. Well. I used to go walking with 2704 02:29:07.840 --> 02:29:10.479 family members every morning after taking her children to school 2705 02:29:10.559 --> 02:29:14.879 near Battleground, Washington, in Battleground Lake State Park. On this 2706 02:29:14.920 --> 02:29:17.440 particular day, she had errands to run, so I found 2707 02:29:17.440 --> 02:29:20.840 myself going alone. I parked my car, get out stretch, 2708 02:29:20.959 --> 02:29:23.719 get ready for my three mile daily walk. So I 2709 02:29:23.760 --> 02:29:27.239 started off walking. Got about five minutes into the park, 2710 02:29:28.079 --> 02:29:32.399 and everything fell quite eerily quiet at that moment, and 2711 02:29:32.520 --> 02:29:35.959 nothing looked familiar. I got this weird feeling I was 2712 02:29:36.000 --> 02:29:39.479 no longer loan, and I could feel someone or something 2713 02:29:39.799 --> 02:29:44.000 watching me. As I panicked and started walking faster, I 2714 02:29:44.000 --> 02:29:48.000 could hear twigs breaking around me in every direction, so 2715 02:29:48.040 --> 02:29:51.639 I started walking even faster. Suddenly I was in full 2716 02:29:51.680 --> 02:29:54.319 on running sprint. I broke from the tree line and 2717 02:29:54.399 --> 02:29:57.280 ended up really far from my car, like fifteen minutes away. 2718 02:29:57.479 --> 02:29:59.680 When I know I had barely walked a few minutes. 2719 02:30:01.000 --> 02:30:03.639 I could still hear it hurried footsteps behind me, though, 2720 02:30:04.200 --> 02:30:06.079 and all of a sudden I felt hands behind my 2721 02:30:06.159 --> 02:30:09.719 back and I was shoved so hard to the ground. 2722 02:30:10.719 --> 02:30:13.079 Whatever had done it done it was such hatred and 2723 02:30:13.120 --> 02:30:16.200 anger that when I fell, I actually heard my bones 2724 02:30:16.239 --> 02:30:20.239 break underneath me. I'd shattered my elbow and broke my wrist. 2725 02:30:20.479 --> 02:30:23.360 And that's not even the worst part. It had done 2726 02:30:23.399 --> 02:30:26.799 it in front of an oncoming vehicle. Well, thank god 2727 02:30:26.920 --> 02:30:29.200 the person driving had seen me before I was pushed 2728 02:30:29.239 --> 02:30:31.479 in front of his car, But he did say he 2729 02:30:31.520 --> 02:30:35.239 saw what looked like a humanoid shadowy figure literally pushed 2730 02:30:35.280 --> 02:30:38.239 me in front of his car. The damn thing literally 2731 02:30:38.239 --> 02:30:40.920 tried to kill me. And I tell you one, I 2732 02:30:41.040 --> 02:30:48.879 never went for walking those woods again. Signed Anonymous, The 2733 02:30:48.920 --> 02:30:52.799 Ghosts in the Barn. When I was a kid in Ohio, 2734 02:30:53.399 --> 02:30:56.559 my friends had a building behind their house. The big 2735 02:30:56.600 --> 02:30:58.559 part of the building was locked up and the one 2736 02:30:58.639 --> 02:31:01.840 end they uses a garage. I was snooping around and 2737 02:31:02.000 --> 02:31:04.000 found a secret passage into the other side of the 2738 02:31:04.040 --> 02:31:07.559 building that was locked up. The garage had a second floor, 2739 02:31:08.120 --> 02:31:09.719 and I went up there and the sun was shining 2740 02:31:09.760 --> 02:31:11.239 just right, so it was coming through a hole in 2741 02:31:11.280 --> 02:31:14.680 the wall. I went over, pushed on it and it moved. 2742 02:31:15.760 --> 02:31:17.840 Pushed harder and it slid to the right and there 2743 02:31:17.879 --> 02:31:20.719 was an opening. I looked in and it was the 2744 02:31:20.799 --> 02:31:23.319 huge other side of the building, full of all kinds 2745 02:31:23.319 --> 02:31:25.680 of stuff. There was a ladder that you had to 2746 02:31:25.719 --> 02:31:27.680 go down from the second story to the ground level. 2747 02:31:28.479 --> 02:31:31.360 I climbed down the ladder and was looking around. It 2748 02:31:31.399 --> 02:31:34.319 was like Kingtuch's treasure room to a little kid, and 2749 02:31:34.440 --> 02:31:38.360 old victrola and stacks of seventy eight RPM records, stacks 2750 02:31:38.399 --> 02:31:41.680 of old tin type photos. I thought there were gold, 2751 02:31:41.719 --> 02:31:44.520 so I started showing them in my jean jacket pockets. 2752 02:31:45.280 --> 02:31:48.079 Just then I heard a crash and things started flying 2753 02:31:48.079 --> 02:31:51.319 through the air. Then a big crow bar flew past 2754 02:31:51.399 --> 02:31:53.959 my head, and I hauled ass up that big ladder 2755 02:31:53.959 --> 02:31:56.079 and into the second story, over the garage and down 2756 02:31:56.079 --> 02:31:59.239 the stairs and ran all the way home. I still 2757 02:31:59.280 --> 02:32:03.120 have those ten Those ghosts were pissed that I was 2758 02:32:03.200 --> 02:32:12.280 messing with their stuff. Signed anonymous, my weird Experience, Hello. 2759 02:32:12.840 --> 02:32:15.799 I was ten years old in nineteen eighty nine. I 2760 02:32:15.799 --> 02:32:18.959 grew up in southeast Los Angeles. I lived next to 2761 02:32:18.959 --> 02:32:20.920 my elementary school and spent a lot of time there 2762 02:32:20.959 --> 02:32:25.200 playing basketball and other games with my friends. My encounter 2763 02:32:25.319 --> 02:32:28.159 happened in the summer of nineteen eighty nine. It was 2764 02:32:28.280 --> 02:32:31.799 mid afternoon, around one or two pm. I was walking 2765 02:32:31.840 --> 02:32:35.399 home from the school after playing basketball. I was alone. 2766 02:32:35.719 --> 02:32:38.079 After exiting the school gate, I walked down the alley 2767 02:32:38.079 --> 02:32:41.159 and entered the driveway that led to my backyard. My 2768 02:32:41.239 --> 02:32:43.840 backyard was not gated in, so anyone could walk through 2769 02:32:43.840 --> 02:32:46.040 the alley behind my yard and out to the main street. 2770 02:32:46.799 --> 02:32:49.840 I remember it being very hot, so hot most kids 2771 02:32:49.920 --> 02:32:52.799 gave up on playing and went home. I did the same. 2772 02:32:53.840 --> 02:32:55.600 As I made my way down the driveway and onto 2773 02:32:55.639 --> 02:32:58.520 the grass in my backyard. I was no longer dribbling 2774 02:32:58.520 --> 02:33:01.280 the basketball, just tossing it up and catching it. We 2775 02:33:01.360 --> 02:33:03.559 had a half dead plumb tree in my backyard, and 2776 02:33:03.600 --> 02:33:05.399 as soon as I was lined up with it, I 2777 02:33:05.520 --> 02:33:09.520 noticed something simply appear. It materialized out of thin air 2778 02:33:09.879 --> 02:33:13.440 and almost seemed like it was dropped there. What I saw, 2779 02:33:13.520 --> 02:33:15.799 as a ten year old boy, was a man like 2780 02:33:15.920 --> 02:33:19.639 being in a skin tight body covering suit. The suit 2781 02:33:19.719 --> 02:33:23.000 was dark and I don't remember a face, although I 2782 02:33:23.040 --> 02:33:27.120 do remember it asking what are you needless to say? 2783 02:33:27.319 --> 02:33:31.920 I was stunned. I did not answer. Just as fast 2784 02:33:31.920 --> 02:33:35.719 as it or he materialized, it seemed to vanish. I 2785 02:33:35.719 --> 02:33:39.920 remember standing there in my backyard, shocked, asking myself did 2786 02:33:40.000 --> 02:33:44.000 that just happen? I remember walking past my dad in 2787 02:33:44.040 --> 02:33:46.200 the garage and walking straight into my room with my 2788 02:33:46.239 --> 02:33:49.840 basketball still in hand. I normally always left it outside. 2789 02:33:50.959 --> 02:33:55.319 I remember being in my room thinking should I tell Mom? No, 2790 02:33:55.639 --> 02:34:00.120 she wouldn't believe me. Who would? I was perplexed. So 2791 02:34:00.239 --> 02:34:04.000 I've told one person this story, that's it. Two thousand 2792 02:34:04.040 --> 02:34:06.639 and nine, I worked braveyard for production company. I would 2793 02:34:06.639 --> 02:34:10.360 listen to Coast to Coast AM. They would have miscellaneous 2794 02:34:10.440 --> 02:34:14.120 nights where people could call in and tell their spooky stories. Well, 2795 02:34:14.559 --> 02:34:16.799 in two thousand and nine, someone called the Coast to 2796 02:34:16.840 --> 02:34:19.280 Coast and basically told the same story I'm telling you. 2797 02:34:20.520 --> 02:34:22.520 I sat there and listened to the man tell his story, 2798 02:34:23.079 --> 02:34:25.559 and it took me back to my backyard in nineteen 2799 02:34:25.600 --> 02:34:30.159 eighty nine when that strange being asked me what are you? 2800 02:34:31.559 --> 02:34:34.680 I wasn't scared, just in utter shock, and I just 2801 02:34:34.760 --> 02:34:37.360 knew nobody would believe me because I never told anyone. 2802 02:34:38.000 --> 02:34:40.360 It was a relief to hear someone else relay that 2803 02:34:40.399 --> 02:34:44.399 same experience years later. Often wonder how many people have 2804 02:34:44.479 --> 02:34:49.079 been asked what are you by? This? Being? Love your channel, 2805 02:34:49.319 --> 02:34:53.879 take care signed j MO.
