[narrator] Next, on Paranormal Caught on Camera,
a security camera captures a toddler struggling with a spirit.
[David] All of a sudden I see a force just kind of pulling that toy out of her hand.
And it took me back.
[narrator] A man in England is tormented by a troublemaking entity.
I definitely, definitely believe in ghosts now.
[narrator] A haunted plane in Mexico...
[Kevin in Spanish]
...lives up to the hype.
This figure is both compelling and creepy as hell.
[narrator] A man in Indiana captures a mind-blowing UFO.
[Jimmy] Do you see that [bleep] man? That is [bleep] nuts!
Seeing it first-hand, it was kind of exhilarating.
[narrator] And even more paranormal footage you have to see to believe.
[woman in Chinese]
[narrator] Every once in a while, you might catch your cat,
or dog,
staring at a blank wall,
or your child talking to an imaginary friend.
Usually, not cause for alarm.
But it's believed that certain animals and some young children
can sense and see other-worldly things that adults cannot.
What?
[narrator] So there are times when that imaginary playmate
might not be so imaginary after all.
Just ask a man in Michigan,
who believes he captured his daughter playing a game of tug-of-war with a spirit.
[child grunts]
[narrator] September 2022.
Southwest Michigan.
David Lignell's mother is babysitting his three-year-old daughter, Laura,
while he's at work.
During his break, David scrolls through the footage from his home security camera,
to see what his daughter is up to.
One video in particular makes him do a double take.
Watch the container in Laura's left hand closely.
No, no, no!
[narrator] Something just tried to pull it away from her.
My name is David, and this is my video.
I just happened to click on a video that my daughter was in.
I'm watching her walking around the kitchen,
and she's talking with somebody in the frame, you can't see who it is.
All of a sudden I see a force just pulling that toy out of her hand.
And it took me back.
[narrator] Then, just seconds later,
whatever unseen force tried to pull the container out of Laura's hand,
does it again.
No!
[David] I had to watch that video a couple different times...
No!
...to really kind of wonder what the heck was going on.
[narrator] And when David can't find a logical explanation,
he comes to what he believes is the only possible conclusion.
-His daughter is interacting with a ghost. -No, no, no!
[Lynne] This is one of my all-time favorite clips.
She stops. She clearly sees something.
She's holding out the objects in her hands.
And, I think the best moment of all, of course,
is when it looks as though something
grabs the thing she's holding and tries to pull it out of her hand,
and we almost see her fall forward.
This is a child too young to be acting,
to be pranking people with this.
Whatever it is, this is a genuine interaction.
[Moran] I don't know what this little girl sees in her kitchen,
but whatever it is, she's not taking any guff from it.
She's putting her foot down, and she's letting it know who's the boss.
No!
[David] Well, when I saw that my daughter was not afraid...
No, no, no!
...and she had a bit of an attitude...
No!
...yeah, it was quite funny actually.
But it definitely brought confidence to me that something like that
wouldn't scare her. That she would stand her ground.
No!
It's widely believed that children can see spirits,
and this ability usually fades around the ages of five or six.
[Dan] Little kids that age just aren't conditioned to not believe in spirits.
To her, that was a real person.
So she wasn't afraid, because she hasn't been conditioned to be afraid.
[Aaron] To some degree, I think everyone is born with what we call a sixth sense,
but it seems like some people's gifts are more pronounced,
and that there are, in theory, families of seers,
and they can pass those gifts to their children.
We hear about it mainly with women as well, although not exclusively so.
[narrator] And it turns out in this situation, that makes sense.
[David] Her mother has had some experiences
with the paranormal on her side of the family.
She would often talk about her grandma
being able to, kind of, see that other spirit world.
And I'm definitely acknowledging the fact that this is...
could be a possibility that there is a spirit in my house.
And if we can coexist with good mutual respect? Cool.
[narrator] By the looks of it, Laura at least is coexisting very well.
[Marcus] As this clip has clearly shown, no one can stand against the little girl.
Ghost or alive.
No!
Little girls don't take that crap from nobody, sir.
Not even you, ghost.
No!
[narrator] Coming up,
a man loses sleep from an ongoing haunt.
[narrator] It's widely believed that a good night's sleep
is vital to our mental and physical well-being.
That's because when you're asleep, your body is repairing cells.
So if you're deprived of it, time after time...
[loud bang]
Which seems to be what a spirit is doing to a man in England.
[alarm siren]
It will eventually wear you down,
and make you susceptible to health issues.
Who's here?
[narrator] Or in Lee Hart's case, mental strife.
Since 2018, Lee Hart has been experiencing paranormal activity
in his home in Lancashire, England,
[chair clatters loudly]
which we've seen evidence of in past seasons.
[chair clatters loudly]
Unfortunately, whatever was haunting him then...
[furniture crashes loudly]
...is still going strong.
March, 2021.
Lee is asleep on the couch one night,
when his security camera captures more paranormal activity.
Keep your eyes on the floor,
as a dark, shadowy mass creeps toward the couch,
and goes underneath it.
Then, two separate orbs fly into Lee,
which he subconsciously swats away.
My name is Lee, and this is my video.
I don't actually remember the orbs hitting me that night
but in general they do feel like a bug hitting you,
just with a slight cold feeling.
[narrator] Seconds later, another dark entity appears to the left of the couch,
and head straight for the camera.
[Lee] The final apparition was mind-blowing to me.
It was one of the clearest I've ever seen. It was so dark.
The fact that it walked up to the camera,
and the camera reacted to it, it just blew my mind.
[Moran] We even hear a sound, as if it had a physical force about it.
And as it makes that sound, we see the man wake up.
Did the spirit, or whatever it is, specifically go to try to turn off that camera?
This clip, I thought, was extremely fascinating.
You see this orb of light, coming from the opposite end of the room,
and it's just drifting right toward him,
goes down and literally touches the man, and he physically reacts.
There's no way you could say this orb was a piece of dust or anything else.
I mean, clearly it was solid enough,
it made contact with him and he literally reacted.
This is a perfect example, I believe, of an authentic spirit orb.
[narrator] The following evening, when Lee is asleep in his bedroom,
a dark circular shadow can be seen floating back and forth in front of the camera.
Which, just like the first video, is a precursor to what happens next.
Watch as a shadow figure appears at the foot of his bed.
It walks towards the bottom of the bed, directly below where I'm sleeping.
It seems to me like it may have been touching me or tickling my feet,
and I was unconsciously aware of it.
[Lynne] The shadow figure that stands at the foot of the bed
is one of the scarier things I've seen,
because it's so unambiguously there.
[narrator] About a month later,
Lee captures more activity while he is sound asleep.
But this time it's much more obtrusive.
First, the night stand on the left is moved.
Then, the one on the right.
[loud crash]
[Sapphire] Anytime an entity can physically interact with you like that,
that's not okay.
[loud crash]
Because it takes a lot of energy for these beings
to physically interact with our world.
And so if he is being physically affected by this thing,
that means it's pretty powerful.
[alarm siren]
[Lee] It finishes off with the alarm going off as usual.
Over the time, it's had a thing of setting the alarm off,
kind of to grab my attention.
[loud crash]
As you can imagine, he can't even be sleeping very well in his own home.
And there are theories that there are negative entities out there,
that want to do just that, grind you down,
and make you more susceptible to further activity.
I would love to know what this spirit is.
How did it come to be in the house?
What is its purpose? And will it eventually just leave this poor man alone?
[narrator] Lee certainly hopes so...
[chair clatters]
...because he'd like to get back to living the life he once knew.
Who's here?
[Lee] I definitely, definitely believe in ghosts now.
I actually run an events company, and we take ghost hunts.
And I never witnessed anything or saw anything, nothing.
But this has changed everything for me.
[narrator] Coming up...
what is haunting...
this abandoned plane in Mexico?
[narrator] On December 29th, 1972,
Eastern Airlines flight 401,
crashed into the Everglades,
due to pilot error,
resulting in 101 deaths.
It has been rumored that the airline salvaged some parts from the wreckage,
and installed them into working planes.
But some believe that along with those parts,
came the ghosts,
of flight 401's pilots...
because they were reportedly seen in the seats,
overhead bins,
and galleys of the planes that received the parts.
After dozens of alleged sightings,
the refurbished parts were supposedly removed,
and the spirits were never seen again.
But while Eastern Airline's hauntings were resolved,
planes all over the world
continue their paranormal legacy,
including one in Mexico that may be infested by a troublemaking entity.
Late 2021, Guanajuato, Mexico.
Kevin Barranco learned of an abandoned plane,
that supposedly belonged to a criminal organization.
The aircraft was allegedly used to commit crimes,
and may have been the site of some tragic deaths.
For that reason, it's believed to be extremely haunted.
On this night, Kevin, his brother and his cousin
are there to find out if the rumors are true.
[Kevin in Spanish]
[in Spanish]
[translator in English] Hello, I am Kevin Barranco, and this is my video.
[in Spanish]
[translator reading in English]
[narrator] Not long after feeling a presence, they hear one.
-[in Spanish] -[translator reading in English]
[Susan] They're not pitter patters, like a small rodent or animal.
These footsteps sound like they're coming from within the airplane,
even though all of the investigators are kind of standing still.
[narrator] Then, even more sounds, but far more creepy.
The growls were like, they were like guttural sounds.
They were like... it sounds like something was very angry
because these people were on the plane.
[Kevin in Spanish]
[narrator in English] Although freaked out, the team presses on.
And starts to make their way toward the back of the plane to check it out.
-[in Spanish] -[translator reading in English]
[Kevin in Spanish]
[narrator in English] Moments later, in the back row,
a dark figure peeks out at them,
followed immediately...
[loud crash]
[Kevin in Spanish]
...by a loud crash.
[Kevin in Spanish]
[in English] This figure is both compelling and creepy as hell.
This isn't just a trick of light because they hear something in the cabin
to make them turn their cameras around and then they document this thing.
And to me, this shadowy form almost seems like it's crouched down,
and having a look.
It seems almost more cryptid, if you will.
It kind of resembles some type of creature,
more so than a figure or an apparition of a person.
[narrator] But if so, what kind of creature
could be simultaneously inside...
[Kevin in Spanish]
...and outside of a plane?
[Kevin whispers in Spanish]
[in English] There is a lot happening here
that seems like it goes beyond our typical ghost stories.
We had this growl...
...that sounds like it's emanating from some sort of creature.
There's the figure in the seat,
and then the rapping on the windows.
To me, it calls to mind the notion of gremlins on an airplane wing.
[Brian] Gremlins originated in World War II by both sides.
Pilots and mechanics found that things were inexplicably going wrong on the planes,
and said, "It's got to be supernatural.
It's gotta be something that's messing up our work".
Now that's in the air. Could gremlins still inhabit downed planes?
Do they see it as their territory? Their lair?
[narrator] Maybe, but the team ends their investigation before they can find out.
Though the terrifying experience won't stop them from going back again.
Except this time, they won't leave anything to chance.
-[in Spanish] -[translator reading in English]
-[crashing] -[Kevin in Spanish]
[narrator] Coming up, a triangle of lights,
stuns a man in Indiana.
[Jimmy] Do you see that [bleep], man?
That is [bleep] nuts!
[narrator] On April 16th 2008,
Police were flooded with 146 calls reporting the same incident.
[deep boom]
A deafening boom,
that shook houses in three counties surrounding Kokomo, Indiana...
followed by bright white lights in the sky.
Government officials claimed that jets from a National Guard training exercise
were dropping flares and breaking the sound barrier.
But some locals believe that was a cover up,
and the strange events were really the beginnings of an alien invasion.
Five years later, a man saw a new set of glowing lights in Kokomo,
and alerted the neighborhood.
[Jimmy] Do you see that [bleep], man?
That is [bleep] nuts!
[narrator] July 2013, in Kokomo, Indiana.
It's late at night, and Jimmy Taylor
is driving to the convenience store to buy cigarettes...
when something strange in the sky compels him to pull over and start filming.
[Jimmy speaking]
My name is Jimmy, and this is my video.
I was driving down the road, and then I seen the three lights.
It was abnormal. It was silent.
Nothing. You couldn't hear anything.
[narrator] Watch as three glowing red lights,
forming a triangle, float across the sky.
It was pretty big-scale lights, you know,
and you can kind of see it compared to a business sign.
Seeing it first-hand, it was kind of exhilarating.
This is probably the best capture I've seen
of the triangular formation in a very long time.
UFO experts believe that when we see these types of crafts
traveling in unison,
it's not because they're individual crafts themselves,
it's because they're all part of one larger craft.
And one of the most common sightings in the world of UFO's
is a triangular shaped craft.
[narrator] But it's not a common sighting for Jimmy.
So he stopped some people on the road...
[Jimmy] Hey! Do you see that [bleep]?
...who were just as puzzled as he is.
[woman 1 speaking]
-[woman 2 speaking] -[woman 1 speaking]
[Jimmy] I just was, kind of,
wanting someone else to verify what I was seeing,
and that it was odd.
[woman 1 speaking]
[Jimmy] [bleep] Yeah, I see it!
[man speaking]
One of the most likely culprits in a case like this are sky lanterns.
And people light these during celebrations like a wedding or, say, New Year's Eve
and they rise up into the air.
Generally, however, you're going to see a line
that goes kind of straight up or diagonally as these things take off,
and then they kind of gently meander through the sky.
Well, in this case, it looks like these objects form a triangle,
in a rigid sort of formation as they move together.
And we don't really see any evidence of significant wind, at least at the ground level.
So who knows? Is it some sort of object that was launched?
Or some type of craft that is kind of cruising across the horizon?
[woman 1 speaking]
[narrator] Whatever it is, it's not the first of its kind in this area.
Far from it.
There have been multiple UFO or UAP sightings in Kokomo throughout the years.
In fact, during the time that Project Blue Book was in operation,
from 1952 to 1969, there were at least eight reported sightings
to the Air Force from Kokomo.
[narrator] Perhaps this sighting, and the others,
have something to do with what's located nearby.
I do live 30 minutes south of like, Grissom Air Force Base.
But I've lived there my entire life,
and have never seen anything like that, before or since.
[woman 1 speaking]
It begs the question, well, is this perhaps something top secret,
deployed from that Air Force base?
Or is it, perhaps, extra-terrestrial,
and it's there to observe the Air Force base?
[narrator] All good questions that remain unanswered,
because the lights eventually drift away, leaving Jimmy and the others befuddled.
-[woman 1] It was, like, three! A triangle! -[Jimmy] It was a triangle!
That was nuts!
[woman 1 speaking]
[narrator] And while they may have witnessed something otherworldly,
they're not expecting an official confirmation anytime soon.
[woman 1 speaking]
[Jimmy] Yeah, it's gonna be like, "Oh, the Air Force did it."
I didn't see anything on the news, nothing in the newspaper.
But surely, I couldn't have been the only one to see it, you know?
Maybe I was the only one to get it on video.
[Juwan] What are they gonna say?
How do you tell the public you got UFOs flying over your house and not incite a riot?
[narrator] Whatever the explanation,
Jimmy is just hoping he has the chance to see something like this again.
[Jimmy] I do look to the sky more often.
I mean, I would love to catch something else.
-Do you see that [bleep], man? -[woman 1 speaking]
That is [bleep] nuts!
[woman 1 speaking]
[narrator] Coming up...
investigators capture a group of shadow figures
at a former steel mill in Alabama.
[narrator] Sloss Furnaces in Birmingham, Alabama,
is a former steel mill that operated over the turn of the 20th century,
where it's believed at least 47 people lost their lives
due to horrific working conditions.
The furnaces have since closed down,
but the facility remains standing to this day.
And an investigative team believes they may have captured
a relic of its tragic past.
January 2011 in Birmingham, Alabama.
A group of investigators from the Alabama Paranormal Research Team
are walking around Sloss Furnaces,
an old blast furnace that used to produce raw iron and is known to be haunted.
And while one of them films with their phone,
they unwittingly record something truly bizarre.
Did you catch it?
Watch again.
When the camera pans to an open ridge in the distance,
a group of figures, congregated together,
dark, and standing completely motionless.
The team doesn't notice anything at the time,
and only sees the figures when reviewing the footage later.
We can clearly see what looks to be a dark human form,
and there looks as if there might be other figures there as well
and they're all sort of conversing, perhaps?
[Susan] There is about three or four of them that you can make out,
but you can't really get any detail as to who they are or what they're wearing.
[Ben] It does really look like there are some people congregating,
and possibly watching the investigators as they approach.
They don't look like tree stumps, they look like human beings
that are standing there that shouldn't be there.
[narrator] The team claims that no other people, visitors or maintenance workers
were at the furnaces while they were.
And when they later returned to the spot where they saw the figures,
they find nothing that could be mistaken for something like that.
It looks like people that are bound and almost broken of their will,
and from what I understand that's pretty much the status
of the employees of the Sloss Furnace going back to the 1800s.
[Lynne] Sloss Furnace was a major source of steel for the United States.
So from the late 1800s to the mid-1900s,
this was a place where steel was made out of ore.
[Moran] This furnace had a lot to do with the reconstruction
of the south after the Civil War.
You have to remember that new train lines were being built everywhere.
The entire South, which was laid to ruin,
was being rebuilt, and they needed iron and steel to do that.
So the main work that people were doing here was keeping the fires stoked.
In order to produce all of that steel,
they needed incredibly high temperatures.
They needed a lot of molten iron.
They needed to be melting down basic materials of the earth.
And anytime you have that, you have really bad fumes,
the opportunities for people to faint, to die, to fall into the fires,
which we do know, of course, happened at this particular furnace.
[Ben] The deaths that occurred there were some of the most horrendous you can imagine.
And the conditions that the workers were exposed to were horrific.
[Moran] If these are in fact spirits that are captured here,
it certainly would stand to reason that it might be
the spirits of people who died at this facility.
[narrator] Or, could the figures simply be an imprint of the past?
[Dan] It might be an instance of a place memory haunting,
or a residual haunting, where we're catching an image that has happened in the past
and it doesn't have to be the distant past,
but energy has been absorbed by that location
and whatever the case, whatever the trigger is,
that energy is released and we're able to glimpse
a few moments of time that has passed before us.
[Susan] When there are these specific environmental circumstances
that charge the atmosphere, you find yourself in a flashback, so to speak,
where you'll start to see what look like individuals
working as if it was a living, breathing factory again.
[narrator] And if this is a residual haunting rather than an intelligent one,
that might be for the best.
[Aaron] After they had spent so many hours of their lives
toiling away in grueling conditions,
I hope in their afterlife they don't stick around there.
[narrator] Either way, it's an eerie reminder of the furnaces' macabre history.
It's a disturbing image and it's sad when you think about its history.
That's how it makes me feel.
[narrator] Coming up...
a massive lake creature surfaces in China.
[man in Chinese]
[narrator in English] Legend says that sometime during the 1970s,
a local herdsman brought his horses to the shores
of Kanas Lake in China to graze.
But when he awoke after a short rest, his horses were gone,
and the water of the lake had turned blood red.
It was just the latest in a long line of stories going back centuries
that led to speculation of an unidentified monster
that lurked beneath the lake's surface.
And a recent video...
has only refueled that fire.
[woman in Chinese]
[narrator in English] May 2022, on Kanas Lake in China,
from a precipice above the lake,
a group of people watch as something crests the surface of the water.
[woman in Chinese]
[narrator in English] The part that's cresting is big...
[woman in Chinese]
...but the silhouette visible below the surface is impossibly huge.
-[man 1 in Chinese] -[man 2 in Chinese]
[in English] We see something that looks to be the only thing in the lake.
We're getting a nice bird's-eye view of this water,
and we're seeing what appears to be something really big
disturbing this water from underneath it.
[Moran] It definitely seems to be a long cylindrical creature,
but it's breaching the surface of the water
just at its very tip, which I would have to assume is its head.
You can see it almost looks like there's a bit of a wake at the surface of the water.
And if you look from that point down,
that must be a massive, massive creature, right?
I'm saying, like, almost 50 feet long.
[woman in Chinese]
[Steve in English] The locals that see this lake all the time
you hear their reactions.
They seem very frantic, a little panicky.
They're seeing something they have never seen before.
-[man 1 in Chinese] -[woman in Chinese]
[in English] So whatever is happening there
doesn't seem like something that should be happening there.
[narrator] True enough.
But this isn't the first ever strange incident at Kanas Lake.
Not by a long shot.
Kanas Lake in Xinjiang, China,
has the legend of a cryptid beast that lives in it,
that goes all the way back to the 13th century.
[Susan] The sightings of this cryptid
pre-date the sightings from Nessie in Scotland
and also pre-date sightings and accounts in the Okanagan Lake
over in British Columbia.
So it's one of the oldest sighted cryptids in a lake ever known.
[Moran] Though the legend goes back for centuries,
there are stories of this thing actually coming ashore in the 1970s,
and feeding on a farmer's grazing horses.
[Lynne] When we add in the long-standing tradition
of people believing there to be a lake monster in this body of water,
they refer to it as China's Loch Ness,
that casts it in a very different context,
where suddenly this recent footage is being tied
to past sightings, past documentation.
So this isn't just a one off, "I saw something weird in a lake".
This is, "I saw something weird in that lake,
that famously has something weird in it."
[narrator] And adding to the intrigue,
is not just the history of the lake itself,
but the country surrounding it.
It's funny to me that we're talking about the Loch Ness monster of China,
because my mind goes in the direction of another creature, dragons.
Within Chinese culture, dragons are rulers of the water,
specifically moving water.
And aside from dragon kings, which might be more humanoid in nature,
a lot of dragons are serpent-like.
They do not resemble the European dragons that we see in fantasy novels.
[narrator] And though the idea of real life dragons
may be overwhelming to consider,
it's not as far-fetched as you might think.
[Susan] I think that maybe these are some sort of prehistoric creatures
or cryptids, because there was a point in time
when our planet's face looked very different than what we have now.
There were ancient lakes that used to, you know, be part of an ocean.
In Nicaragua there is a lake that has great white sharks in it,
and it's because they evolved over time to live in that lake,
because these bodies of water haven't always been landlocked.
They used to connect with other parts of the oceans and seas,
and then, little by little, the topography of our planet started changing,
and trapped certain animals within certain places and bodies of water,
just like it did with those sharks in the lake in Nicaragua.
[narrator] Suffice it to say,
there is a lot that we don't know about what lurks within our bodies of water.
[Steve] We're discovering new marine life constantly.
We're learning things about the deepest parts of these bodies of water all the time.
You know, marine biologists will often say we know a fraction
of what's really happening.
And I think that's a breeding ground for mystery.
[woman in Chinese]
[narrator] What should you do in the event you witness something paranormal?
Here are some tips to get it all on camera.
[Jimmy] You see that [bleep], man?
[narrator] Check your footage for anything unusual.
Trust that what you're seeing really is otherworldly.
No!
[narrator] Don't stop recording...
[Kevin speaking Spanish]
...even if you're scared.
And if you do catch something,
e-mail us at submitparanormal@gmail.com
or connect with us on social media.
Your footage could be seen right here on Paranormal Caught on Camera.
