[narrator] next, on paranormal caught on camera...
-A vlogger in England... -There's no turning back now.
[narrator] ...Accidently captures a haunted doll.
I don't know why people would even bring these "found dolls" into their homes.
[narrator] a toddler plays tug-of-war with a ghost.
You can see that there's something trying to grab this object from him.
[narrator] is this evidence of the loch ness monster?
[man speaking]
[narrator] how is this woman able to float in mid-air?
[ronny leblanc] I've never seen something like this,
Where a woman has been just levitated off the bed in front of our eyes.
[narrator] and even more paranormal footage you have to see...
[man speaking]
[narrator] ...To believe.
[theme music playing]
[narrator] usually, paranormal captures are intentional,
Caught by people trying to prove the existence of something...
...Extraordinary.
[man speaking]
[narrator] but sometimes, the most surprising and most credible
Type of paranormal footage is when something is caught on camera,
Completely by accident.
Like what happened to this man in England...
Hello and welcome to steve says so.
[narrator] ...Who is filming something fairly ordinary.
-[exhales] it's clipper time. -[machine whirring]
[narrator] and unknowingly, captured something terrifying.
Do we have a shave like on here?
Do we go for the full bronson...
[narrator] August 2020, in ashford, England.
Steven horne is at home, making a video for his vlog
About something that's been bothering him lately.
Whether it's the aging process or genetics,
I'm not entirely sure, but I'm sure that my hair is starting to come out.
[narrator] so, steven has decided to shave his head on camera.
While his wife and five children are out of the house for the day.
[exhales] it's clipper time.
My name's steven horne and I recorded the video.
Here we go. Shall we just go straight through the middle?
I did it in my bedroom, it was very straightforward,
It was a case of putting the camera on and getting the clippers out
And, you know, recording it.
Okay, there's no turning back now. [chuckles]
[exhales deeply] there we go.
[narrator] now freshly groomed,
Steven uploads his video, to his social media,
Without bothering to review it.
Then...
...A couple of weeks later...
I started getting lots of pings coming up on my phone
And people making lots of comments and I thought, you know,
I thought, that's unusual, my videos are usually fairly quiet.
So, it alerted me to actually watch the video.
And that's when I actually found out what happened.
[narrator] watch closely.
As steven nears the end of his video.
Do we keep the beard or do we go for the...
Do we have a shave like on here?
Do we go for the full bronson 'tache?
Or I don't know, I don't know, you have to let me know.
[narrator] did you catch it? Watch again.
As the doll behind steven turns
And then falls against the bedpost,
Completely by itself.
Do we have a shave like on here?
Do we go for the full bronson 'tache?
I love, love, love this clip.
Because it's so mundane.
It's just a guy that's feeling age encroaching on him
But then, in the background, something incredible happens.
[rachel evans] what we're seeing is an accidental capture,
Which is my favorite because you know that it's not manipulated.
You know that it's not movie magic, nobody's trying to make it happen,
It just happens.
This seems to turn and then fall.
As if something were trying to grab it or touch it
And maybe lost control and then gravity took over.
[sapphire sandalo] it doesn't feel like a motion that would just happen randomly,
It feels a little bit intentional
And that's what makes this a little bit creepy.
[narrator] what makes this even creepier is that steven is not entirely sure
How the doll, which was found in an attic,
And given to his young daughter by her grandmother
Ended up in his room in the first place.
After looking back at the tape, I just assumed my daughter
Had come into the bedroom in the morning or something, left it there
But according to her, she never put it in there.
[mark moran] I've said it before and I'll say it again, I don't know why
People would even bring these "found dolls" into their home.
I mean dolls are creepy to begin with, you don't know the history of it.
[sagers] if we're talking about an object that was moving around the house
On its own or manipulated by an entity,
That would require an immense amount of energy.
The fact that it's a doll, no, thank you.
[narrator] and this isn't the first time,
Inexplicable things have happened in steven's home.
[steven] we've had lots of things happen in this house
Of, if you wanna call it, a paranormal nature.
There was a period of time for a couple of years where we carried on hearing
A running upstairs, like footsteps.
My oldest daughter said a little boy kept on
Opening her bedroom door in the middle of the night.
I definitely saw a small child run past in the kitchen.
And this got worse and worse.
[narrator] so steven does some research on the history of the house.
[steven] dug through the records and found that
There was actually a house fire in 1973.
And in that, unfortunately, a small boy died.
And I believe he was about seven or eight.
And so there's all these different little clues that kind of led you on to realize
You know, what's happening, is there's actually,
Unfortunately, probably, a spirit of a small child in the house.
[leblanc] what often happens with deaths like this, that are accidental,
That spirit or soul, that energy is left in that location.
So this could just be a simple friendly ghost.
[evans] I wanna believe that this is just
The residual spirit of a boy trying to play with his doll,
But I also know that nefarious spirit uses symbols
Like youth and children to manipulate you
And to make you feel comfortable.
And when spirit chooses to manipulate something
That is so innocent, like a children's toy,
To me, that reads nothing but trouble.
[narrator] whether it's the ghost of a young boy,
A possessed doll or something else entirely
Steven's come to terms with it residing in his home, at least for now.
If it was just me experiencing it, I'd be taking a little trip to the doctor's, I think,
But everyone in the house has experienced stuff and still does experience stuff
And it's reminder that whatever was there was there the whole time
And as far as I know, it's still there.
-[narrator] coming up... -[speaks other language]
A paranormal investigator is confronted by a powerful force in greece.
[speaks other language]
[narrator] there's a remote village in northern greece,
That is reportedly plagued by the paranormal.
Residents claim the strange phenomena
All started when a mysterious glowing light
Fell from the sky and landed in the town.
Since then, there have been numerous reports of odd sounds.
Objects inexplicably moving on their own and apparitions.
A whole family even committed suicide.
While other people seemingly disappeared.
One paranormal investigator is called to this village to help.
And the wrath he endures, literally...
[man speaking other language]
[narrator] shakes him to his core.
[speaking other language]
[narrator] early 2018, near zagori, greece,
Antonis vlachos is a paranormal investigator,
Who's been contacted by a property owner living in a small village,
That many locals believe is still affected
By a bizarre light that fell from the sky long ago.
The property owner recently inherited a house in this community,
That had been abandoned by its original owners nearly 50 years ago.
As renovations began, bizarre things started happening.
Antonis is here, to help find out why.
[antonis speaking other language]
[narrator] when antonis begins his investigation,
Both he and his partner are immediately disturbed by the aura of the home.
[speaking other language]
[translator] my name is antonis vlachos.
[speaking other language]
[translator speaking]
[speaking other language]
[narrator] antonis and his partner set up camera equipment around the house.
Split up into separate rooms.
Wow.
[narrator] and wait for something to happen.
-It doesn't take long. -[mysterious noise]
[translator speaking]
[speaking other language]
[translator speaking]
[narrator] they find a radio playing music.
A radio with no apparent power source.
[speaking other language]
[translator speaking]
[speaking other language]
[lynne mcneill] classic instrumental transcommunication,
We have a device that is meant to convert energy into sound
And here it is doing it powered by nothing
What incredible energy must be in that space
To make that machine function.
[sagers] now if it is a spirit using its own energy to project through this radio,
It says to me that it either wants to communicate
Or it wants to scare the hell out of this guy.
[narrator] whatever it wants, antonis and his partner are freaked out.
[translator speaking]
[speaking other language]
[narrator] but the men are able to calm themselves down enough to remain in the house.
Though this time, they stay in the same room.
Then, just a short while later...
[speaking other language]
[narrator] the entire house violently shakes.
[speaking other language]
[narrator] and, take a look again.
As the house rumbles,
What appears to be some kind of apparition,
Glides across the frame of camera one.
[antonis speaking other language]
[narrator] at the same time, a chair is forcibly thrown
Across the room on camera two.
[translator speaking]
Now, while it is difficult to discern the intention behind this activity,
It does seem that there is a lot of power being displayed.
Maybe this is a moment of this activity saying,
"okay, you wanna go, let's go."
[mcneill] we know that the family disappeared from this home
Did that family experience something like this?
[antonis speaking other language]
Did their whole house shake? That might be enough
To make me depart under cover of darkness
And not tell my neighbors where I'm going.
[narrator] and it was more than enough for antonis and his partner,
They immediately vacate the property.
[translator speaking]
[narrator] something. But what?
[mcneill] it might simply be sort of beyond what we know about science,
Something with its own energy source that maybe is causing tremors,
That's maybe causing flashes of light or even that's creating
That atmospheric sense that things are off,
That something is wrong, that it's almost a barometric sense
That this place has been altered fundamentally
By whatever it was that came out of the sky.
[narrator] whatever is happening here, antonis is determined
To return once again in hopes of gathering more evidence
And hopefully some answers.
[translator speaking]
[speaking other language]
[narrator] coming up, a southern california man,
Has a startling encounter with two ufos.
[man speaking]
[narrator] seeing a ufo can be a lonely experience,
Especially if you're the only one who claims to have seen it.
You might think, you're just seeing things or worse, going crazy.
But, consider this, maybe, just maybe,
That ufo showed itself to you and only you...
...For a reason, sort of like a direct line of communication.
That's what seemed to have happened to one man in california.
When he was the sole witness, to this.
[man speaking]
[narrator] July, 2020, in oak park, california,
It's 7:30 p.M., and art merino is taking his usual walk around his neighborhood.
When suddenly something in the skies above stops him in his tracks.
Two glowing red ufos, hovering in the night sky.
Each object seems to move with purpose
As if somehow reacting to the other's moves.
Then, one of the lights separates itself and fades away for good.
Art stays focused on the light that remains,
Zooming in to get a better look.
Until this light too, suddenly, vanishes.
Art is stunned.
[art] what was that?
Hello, my name is art merino and I filmed the video.
[art speaking]
[derek hayes] it certainly got my attention.
This isn't something that we normally see in the skies above los angeles.
[evans] it's not the normal in the middle of the desert, nobody can see me,
There might lights reflecting from the water, maybe an aircraft,
None of that, this is the valley, like,
This is where kim kardashian lives.
[leblanc] what's really interesting is these orbs move in such a way
That it's silent and slow-moving,
They're in no hurry to get out of the picture,
But they have this ability to just disappear right in front of our eyes.
So as if these odd balls of light aren't strange enough,
If you look really closely you can actually see something
Seemingly travel between the two,
A smaller white blinking light.
I found myself thinking, is this our military? Is this private industry?
Who has also seen these lights? Who is now saying we need to get a closer look.
I mean, it's not any kind of aircraft that I've ever seen before
And it's obviously not, you know,
From this world, as I would put it.
[narrator] art agrees.
Which is why what happened next
After he posted the video to a neighborhood sharing app,
Kind of blew his mind.
[art speaking]
[narrator] which led art to an interesting conclusion.
[art speaking]
[evans] this is something we see a lot with reports of nocturnal lights,
Where someone sees them, and it's like,
"man, this is so obvious.
How is this not on the front page of tomorrow's newspaper?
How is everyone in the neighborhood
Not talking about what were those two glowing copper lights in the sky?"
And once someone realizes, "hey, wait a minute.
I'm the only one who noticed these really obvious, strange things happening?"
It's not that far a leap to say,
"maybe I'm the only one who was able to see it."
[leblanc] I really do believe that they were showing themselves to him,
Which has happened countless times.
These lights, they are meant for him to see.
[narrator] regardless of how, or why, those lights were there that night,
For art, the experience only served to deepen his strongly-held belief.
[art] what was that?
[narrator] coming up...
An amateur photographer captures evidence of a legendary beast.
[man speaking]
[narrator] it seems that almost every body of water,
In places all around the globe,
Is alleged to have some sort of reclusive, legendary creature
Hiding underneath its surface.
Even still, there is no legend that quite compares
To that of the loch ness monster.
Tourists looking to spot the fabled beast,
Bring in over 40 million pounds each year for the scottish economy.
And yet, few have captured any real evidence.
[narrator] but as one man found out,
You don't have to be looking for the monster...
[man speaking]
[narrator] ...For it to show up right in front of you.
[woman speaking]
[narrator] August 13th, 2013,
In fort augustus, scotland.
Amateur photographer david elder is at loch ness with his wife,
Taking some shots of a swan gently gliding on the lake.
When suddenly to the right of the swan,
David's wife notices something odd in the water.
So david switches his camera to video mode
And captures this.
[david speaking]
[woman] okay.
[david speaking]
[narrator] a massive wormlike creature
Cresting just underneath the surface of the water.
[david speaking]
[narrator] david and his wife are baffled.
[woman speaking]
[narrator] and then, as quickly as it appeared,
It is gone.
[david speaking]
[woman speaking]
Hi, I'm david elder. I am a scottish amateur photographer.
And it was myself that shot the video footage at loch ness.
[david speaking]
[narrator] and what they believed they captured,
Maybe, just maybe,
Was the loch ness monster.
This video, for me,
Is probably one of the best evidences I've seen
Of the loch ness monster.
It shows us something that does not seem to belong at this lake.
[mcneill] it moves somewhat purposefully.
It moves as if there's some sort of sentient creature underwater
That is trying to get somewhere,
Trying to move through this particular body of water.
[evans] it looked like
You could see the sheen of its skin.
Which makes it so much realer.
[sceurman] some people say, "well, a lot of times
These things are just waves, or rogue waves" or whatever.
But they would leave some kind of wake.
You just don't get just a single wave
That floats across the water.
This thing, obviously, is alive in there.
There is something in there.
[david speaking]
[woman speaking]
[narrator] still, david couldn't help but be dubious.
The loch ness monster?
Really?
[narrator] so he did some research.
[narrator] and then, there's the size of loch ness itself.
[david speaking]
Loch ness is essentially the perfect body of water
To hide some sort of water legend in.
Not only is the lake huge, but the water is stained dark brown
Because of all the peat that's found in that region.
So you have a huge body of water
That's been there for a very long time,
And it's dark, deep and mysterious.
It's the perfect place to hide some sort of large water monster.
[narrator] but what really sealed the deal for david
Was what happened after he posted the video online.
[david speaking]
[cano] when footage such as this is brought to learned people,
Experts in their fields,
And they come up blank, not knowing exactly what they've seen,
But knowing what it isn't.
That's interesting to me because
Even though it rules out certain explanations,
It leaves a door wide open to others.
[evans] that tells you everything that you need to know.
The more and more footage we see of these cryptids,
The harder it is to explain away.
[woman speaking]
[narrator] coming up...
A woman is levitated in her sleep by an unseen force.
[narrator] levitation.
Stories of people somehow having the ability to float in midair,
Whether by choice or not,
Have persisted and baffled for hundreds of years.
Some believed it meant the levitator had magical powers.
Others thought it was a sign of demonic possession.
And a few even believed it was an indicator of holy deliverance.
But of course, in the end, all of these stories were just that,
Stories.
Right?
Well, not according to a woman in georgia,
Who somehow captured this.
2015,
In atlanta, georgia.
A local parapsychologist is helping a woman
Who consistently wakes up with mysterious bruises all over her body.
In order to determine what exactly is happening to her at night,
The woman installs night-vision cameras
To film herself while she sleeps.
And on one night, the camera captures
What may just be the source of her bruising.
Watch closely...
As she somehow levitates 3 to 4 feet in the air
For several seconds while still asleep.
Then her body is gently lowered back to the bed...
Where she continues to sleep
As if nothing happened at all.
What did we just see?
This is shocking footage.
[leblanc] I've never seen something so significant like this,
Where a woman has been just levitated off the bed in front of our eyes.
[cano] this is something right out of a movie.
This is something that, even as I'm watching it,
I'm not believing what I'm seeing.
[susan slaughter] this is superhuman strength.
So whatever is levitating her has immense power.
And I think that's what's frightening.
Because if it can lift her off the bed that easily,
What other things can it do physically to you?
[narrator] could it really be that some kind of entity or external force
Is responsible for the woman's levitation?
[cano] perhaps, if spirit is causing this woman to levitate,
Not only are they communicating with her in her dreams, in her mind,
That communication, that interaction,
Is causing them to lift her from her bed.
[hayes] now it may be the position, lying down.
Maybe something necessary for this to take place.
Maybe it's that we're more vulnerable while we're sleeping,
Or maybe easier lifted up
By whatever force it is that's actually lifting us.
It's such a unique situation
That perhaps there's something about her
That makes her a focal point.
[narrator] or, could she somehow be doing it to herself?
In parapsychology there's the thought that
Much of the things that we witness
Are coming from our own minds, our own abilities.
So perhaps the fact that she's asleep,
Her unconscious mind is tapping into
An ability that allows her to levitate herself.
[slaughter] levitation has been reported
In these instances of deep sleep states
During astral projection,
Where their soul's separation from their human body
Can be so incredibly tethered to the point that when the soul is exiting,
The physical being can actually lift up as well.
[narrator] whatever is happening,
It isn't the first time this sort of thing has been documented.
[sceurman] physics proved that it's impossible to levitate.
But we have had historical records of people doing this
For hundreds of years without any tricks, ropes or pulleys.
[narrator] whether or not the levitation was the cause of the woman's bruises
Remains unclear.
But one thing's for certain,
It is not something to be taken lightly.
I think that a lot of us have ideas in our minds that,
"man, levitation would be awesome.
I'd be like superman or wonder woman. I could fly!"
Hmm, not really.
Especially in an instance like this
Where it's happening while someone is unconscious.
Whether they're causing it themselves
Or whether it's being caused by an external force,
It's something that that human, that body, isn't in control of.
And that seems more dangerous than that.
[narrator] coming up...
A paranormal struggle for the tv remote.
No.
[narrator] it's a popular belief
That very young children are more sensitive to the spiritual world.
Mostly because they are not yet jaded by life,
And tend to be more open-minded.
Which makes them more likely to feel or see things
An adult might disregard because they've been conditioned to do so.
Recently, a woman in England captured evidence of this
When she witnessed her toddler playing tug-of-war...
With a ghost.
No.
2019, lincolnshire, England.
Becky sims is watching tv with her two-year-old son ben,
When he suddenly starts acting strangely.
Confused by his behavior,
Becky grabs her camera and starts recording.
Watch closely...
As it appears that ben is having trouble holding on to the tv remote...
Almost as if someone or something
Is trying to take it away from him.
No.
What's so striking about this footage is that
You can actually see the tension in the boy's hand.
You can see that there's something trying to grab this object from him.
There's an actual push and pull there.
[moran] to me it looks like there's something very unnatural about the way that
The child is holding that remote.
It seems to keep wanting to slip away from him,
Like it has a mind of its own.
No.
At one point, it almost seems independent of his hands,
It seems like it's floating, sort of like, above them for just a split-second,
And then it gets tugged off once again.
[narrator] so, what's causing the remote to be pulled from ben's hand?
Becky believes she knows.
And, that it's something paranormal.
Specifically, the ghost of her brother
Who passed away four years ago,
And was a notorious remote hog.
[cano] now if it is the spirit of the brother,
He just might be playing with the child,
Not necessarily trying to take it away from him or do anything nefarious.
It's just, "hey!"
It's a little game of keep-away
Between an uncle and his nephew.
Maybe he's tired of watching the kids' program,
And he just wants to put on the football game.
I think that becky's brother might have deliberately chosen this action
As a way of showing up.
Because he knew that his sister would recognize that action as him.
She was able to put those things together,
You know, she was like,
"oh. My brother used to do this when he was alive.
This might be my brother."
[slaughter] if he loved television, was a remote hog,
And now he sees his nephew being a remote hog,
Maybe there's something they both have in common.
Maybe there's a little bit of her brother's reincarnated energy within her son.
[narrator] but, if this really is the ghost of becky's brother,
Why is ben so...
Not freaked out?
[sandalo] when kids interact with spirits,
Unless it's something incredibly malicious,
They don't see the difference between a spirit and a person.
So, if this were to happen to an adult,
An adult would immediately
Freak out, start questioning what's going on.
But this baby is just acting like there's a person there,
Trying to take his remote.
Just treating it like a normal person.
There's a really common trope, both in folklore and in popular culture,
That kids have an extra sensitivity
To the supernatural or to the paranormal.
And whether that's because they haven't become skeptical adults yet,
Or their minds are more open to the wonderous or the marvelous,
There's a lot of theories about why this might be.
Even psychological theories about the development of children's brains
That allow for more magical thinking.
But it is absolutely expected
That children can see things that adults cannot.
[narrator] even still, going forward,
It may be something for becky to be wary of.
[slaughter] we don't know who that energy is or what it wants.
So I think it's important for her
To keep an ear out for conversations,
And record as many of these interactions as she can.
And definitely try to understand
The relationship her son has with this energy.
[narrator] what should you do in the event you witness something paranormal?
Here are some tips to get it all on camera.
Check your footage.
And then check it again.
Believe in the legend.
[david] something in the water on the loch ness.
[narrator] keep your eyes on the skies.
[art] what was that?
[narrator] and, if you do catch something...
[narrator reading]
Or connect with us on social media.
Your footage could be seen right here
On paranormal caught on camera.
