00:00:01,168 --> 00:00:02,801
[narrator] next on
paranormal caught
on camera ...
2
00:00:02,837 --> 00:00:05,504
An intrepid
paranormal investigator...
3
00:00:05,539 --> 00:00:06,538
[man] hello?
4
00:00:06,574 --> 00:00:09,041
[narrator] ...Is confronted
by something evil.
5
00:00:17,551 --> 00:00:19,952
[narrator] a terrifying
cryptid emerges
6
00:00:20,521 --> 00:00:21,587
From a man's toilet.
7
00:00:21,622 --> 00:00:26,558
It looks like sludge.
It looks like living sludge.
8
00:00:26,594 --> 00:00:30,195
[narrator] ominous lights
appear in the sky
9
00:00:30,231 --> 00:00:32,364
Over san diego.
10
00:00:32,400 --> 00:00:33,432
[harper speaking]
11
00:00:34,568 --> 00:00:38,103
[man] when you see a light
or seven in a line,
12
00:00:38,139 --> 00:00:41,640
It leads me to believe,
it could be something
extra-terrestrial.
13
00:00:41,675 --> 00:00:43,809
[narrator] is this
the sound...
14
00:00:43,844 --> 00:00:44,610
[woman speaking]
15
00:00:44,645 --> 00:00:46,145
[narrator] ... Of a
skin-walker?
16
00:00:46,647 --> 00:00:47,780
[woman speaking]
17
00:00:47,815 --> 00:00:50,416
There was that gut feeling
that something was just wrong.
18
00:00:50,451 --> 00:00:54,186
[narrator] and even more
paranormal footage
you have to see...
19
00:00:55,356 --> 00:00:56,388
[man speaking other language]
20
00:00:56,424 --> 00:00:57,890
[narrator] ... To believe.
21
00:00:57,925 --> 00:01:02,161
[opening theme music playing]
22
00:01:10,938 --> 00:01:13,906
[narrator] there's a mythical
being in native
american folklore
23
00:01:13,941 --> 00:01:17,376
That many believe
to be evil incarnate.
24
00:01:18,546 --> 00:01:21,113
It's called,
"the skin-walker."
25
00:01:21,148 --> 00:01:22,815
[growling]
26
00:01:22,850 --> 00:01:25,017
They reportedly originate
from shaman
27
00:01:25,052 --> 00:01:30,889
Who attempt to gain heightened
powers by forsaking their
ability to heal
28
00:01:30,925 --> 00:01:33,292
And committing heinous acts
of violence.
29
00:01:35,496 --> 00:01:38,230
They can shape-shift into
the form of
different creatures.
30
00:01:38,299 --> 00:01:40,466
And lure their victims
31
00:01:40,501 --> 00:01:45,037
By mimicking animal sounds
and even human voices.
32
00:01:46,574 --> 00:01:49,808
Recently, a man working on
a remote ranch in arizona
33
00:01:49,844 --> 00:01:52,945
Believes he is being
stalked by one.
34
00:01:53,914 --> 00:01:57,416
[narrator] ...And has
the video to prove it.
35
00:01:58,452 --> 00:01:59,418
[woman speaking]
36
00:02:07,361 --> 00:02:08,660
[eagle screeching]
37
00:02:08,696 --> 00:02:11,330
[narrator] October, 2020.
38
00:02:11,365 --> 00:02:13,499
Eloy, arizona.
39
00:02:13,534 --> 00:02:16,435
John soto is a cowboy,
40
00:02:16,470 --> 00:02:20,806
Who works in a remote ranch
about 20 minutes
outside of town.
41
00:02:22,009 --> 00:02:26,278
Lately, he's noticed some very
disturbing things happening
42
00:02:26,313 --> 00:02:28,313
Around the property.
43
00:02:28,349 --> 00:02:30,415
Disembodied voices,
44
00:02:30,451 --> 00:02:34,219
Extremely odd animal sounds
and behavior.
45
00:02:34,255 --> 00:02:36,588
And even the recurring odor
46
00:02:36,624 --> 00:02:39,925
Of rotting flesh from
an unknown source.
47
00:02:40,794 --> 00:02:43,495
One day, john is
riding horseback,
48
00:02:43,531 --> 00:02:45,697
Setting up trail cameras
around the ranch,
49
00:02:45,733 --> 00:02:50,369
When he spots something
strange and quickly
takes out his phone.
50
00:02:53,140 --> 00:02:55,374
[soto speaking]
51
00:02:58,979 --> 00:03:04,016
[narrator] and things are
about to get a whole
lot weirder.
52
00:03:06,187 --> 00:03:07,252
[woman speaking]
53
00:03:10,391 --> 00:03:11,356
[woman speaking]
54
00:03:14,328 --> 00:03:17,362
[horse galloping]
55
00:03:17,398 --> 00:03:18,463
[soto] my name is john.
56
00:03:18,499 --> 00:03:21,833
I am a working cowboy
in southern arizona.
57
00:03:21,869 --> 00:03:25,037
And I captured these videos on
one of the ranches I work at.
58
00:03:28,442 --> 00:03:29,308
[woman speaking]
59
00:03:30,644 --> 00:03:34,546
What I heard was what
sounded to me
to be the word, "hey."
60
00:03:34,582 --> 00:03:35,480
[woman speaking]
61
00:03:35,516 --> 00:03:37,883
[soto] like, something
calling me.
62
00:03:37,918 --> 00:03:41,687
It was a... Sounded like
a female voice, not panicked.
63
00:03:41,722 --> 00:03:43,488
And that made it more eerie.
64
00:03:43,524 --> 00:03:46,525
Almost, like, it was trying to
call me into the bush.
65
00:03:46,560 --> 00:03:47,626
[woman] hey!
66
00:03:48,562 --> 00:03:51,230
[soto] my horse is
a working cow horse.
67
00:03:51,265 --> 00:03:52,798
He's not scared easily
68
00:03:52,833 --> 00:03:56,568
And whatever that was
made him stop in his tracks.
69
00:03:56,604 --> 00:03:58,003
[woman speaking]
70
00:04:00,107 --> 00:04:00,706
[bleep]
71
00:04:00,741 --> 00:04:02,774
And then a second one came.
72
00:04:02,810 --> 00:04:03,642
[woman speaking]
73
00:04:03,677 --> 00:04:05,611
[soto] and that's when he
spun around,
74
00:04:05,646 --> 00:04:07,846
And went into that gait.
75
00:04:08,382 --> 00:04:10,349
[horse galloping away]
76
00:04:11,819 --> 00:04:14,353
[soto] once I got back
into the yard,
77
00:04:14,388 --> 00:04:15,787
I calmed my horse down
78
00:04:15,823 --> 00:04:19,091
And I walked back up
towards the tree line,
79
00:04:19,126 --> 00:04:23,595
Calling out, in case there was
somebody that needed help.
80
00:04:23,631 --> 00:04:27,933
And when I did that,
there was no response.
81
00:04:29,570 --> 00:04:30,869
[narrator] six days later,
82
00:04:30,904 --> 00:04:33,972
John is driving his pickup
truck on the ranch,
83
00:04:35,242 --> 00:04:37,743
When something runs across
the road in front of him.
84
00:04:37,778 --> 00:04:40,812
He pulls over to
see what it is.
85
00:04:40,848 --> 00:04:45,317
[soto] just saw... Looked
almost like a coyote
86
00:04:45,352 --> 00:04:46,652
Run right across here.
87
00:04:46,720 --> 00:04:50,422
[narrator] suddenly, from out
of the darkness...
88
00:04:52,192 --> 00:04:53,091
[voice calling]
89
00:04:56,397 --> 00:04:58,130
[soto] that sounded
like a kid.
90
00:04:59,333 --> 00:05:00,666
Or a goat.
91
00:05:00,701 --> 00:05:05,804
When I said a kid or a goat,
I didn't mean a kid,
like a baby goat.
92
00:05:05,839 --> 00:05:08,440
I meant a child, it sounded
like a child.
93
00:05:08,475 --> 00:05:09,574
[voice calling]
94
00:05:09,610 --> 00:05:11,777
[soto] and then my brain
trying to make sense of it.
95
00:05:11,812 --> 00:05:13,779
It was like or it may have
been a goat or it...
96
00:05:13,814 --> 00:05:16,415
You know what, I'm trying to
think of what it could
have been.
97
00:05:18,252 --> 00:05:19,184
[voice calling]
98
00:05:20,754 --> 00:05:24,656
[soto] it seemed like it was
trying to get me to come off
of the roadway.
99
00:05:24,692 --> 00:05:25,657
[voice calling]
100
00:05:25,693 --> 00:05:27,559
[soto] but again, there was
that gut feeling
101
00:05:27,594 --> 00:05:28,860
That something was just wrong.
102
00:05:29,830 --> 00:05:33,198
[narrator] john's inclination
is spot-on.
103
00:05:34,568 --> 00:05:35,867
[voice calling]
104
00:05:36,670 --> 00:05:38,470
[soto] my family is
native american
105
00:05:38,505 --> 00:05:41,006
And when I ran it past my
family members,
106
00:05:41,041 --> 00:05:45,444
They immediately told me to
speak to a medicine man.
107
00:05:45,479 --> 00:05:49,514
That's what when things sort
of got concerning.
108
00:05:49,550 --> 00:05:53,752
[narrator] concerning, because
the family's advice
seemed to imply
109
00:05:53,787 --> 00:05:56,855
That john may have
been interacting
110
00:05:56,890 --> 00:05:59,358
With one of the most
feared entities
111
00:05:59,393 --> 00:06:01,360
In native american folklore,
112
00:06:01,395 --> 00:06:03,562
The skin-walker.
113
00:06:03,597 --> 00:06:05,030
[woman speaking]
114
00:06:06,700 --> 00:06:08,700
[soto] everything just seems
to line up.
115
00:06:08,736 --> 00:06:12,904
It being a trickster of sorts,
trying to lure us out,
116
00:06:13,340 --> 00:06:13,772
The sounds...
117
00:06:13,807 --> 00:06:14,906
[voice calling]
118
00:06:14,942 --> 00:06:18,410
[soto] I do think it's the
entity in question here.
119
00:06:18,445 --> 00:06:19,277
[voice calling]
120
00:06:19,313 --> 00:06:21,413
I do think that's what it is.
121
00:06:22,816 --> 00:06:26,852
[lynne mcneill] a skin-walker
is an evil person.
122
00:06:26,887 --> 00:06:31,390
A person who has put
themselves ahead
of their community.
123
00:06:33,560 --> 00:06:35,394
They have to do
certain things.
124
00:06:35,429 --> 00:06:38,130
They have to sacrifice
certain loved ones,
125
00:06:38,165 --> 00:06:42,401
To gain the ability to
shape-shift into an animal.
126
00:06:43,704 --> 00:06:46,671
And so the stories that we
encounter of skin-walkers
127
00:06:46,707 --> 00:06:50,776
Are almost always as an animal
that is giving away
128
00:06:50,811 --> 00:06:53,578
The fact that it's not
a natural animal.
129
00:06:53,614 --> 00:06:54,880
[voice calling]
130
00:06:54,915 --> 00:06:59,418
[mcneill] it's actually
an unnatural
transformed human,
131
00:06:59,453 --> 00:07:01,620
Who has become this thing
132
00:07:01,655 --> 00:07:06,258
Out of a malevolent desire
to do evil.
133
00:07:06,293 --> 00:07:07,893
[woman speaking]
134
00:07:07,928 --> 00:07:11,863
[susan slaughter] I do think
that very first, "hey," that
spooks the horse.
135
00:07:11,899 --> 00:07:12,764
[bleep]
136
00:07:12,800 --> 00:07:14,933
Sounds very feminine
and female like.
137
00:07:14,968 --> 00:07:15,801
[woman speaking]
138
00:07:15,836 --> 00:07:20,439
But then that second one
sounded more like
139
00:07:20,474 --> 00:07:23,942
A baby lamb or goat
or something.
140
00:07:23,977 --> 00:07:24,509
[voice calling]
141
00:07:24,545 --> 00:07:27,813
[slaughter] not a human.
142
00:07:28,816 --> 00:07:31,583
[sapphire sandalo] skinwalkers
are, in a way,
143
00:07:31,618 --> 00:07:34,653
Halfway between a human
and an animal.
144
00:07:34,688 --> 00:07:39,124
So it makes sense
that they might make a sound
145
00:07:39,159 --> 00:07:43,261
That sounds right smack
in the middle between
those two things.
146
00:07:43,297 --> 00:07:44,596
It could be a human
147
00:07:44,631 --> 00:07:46,264
Or could be an animal.
148
00:07:47,434 --> 00:07:48,366
We have no idea.
149
00:07:49,803 --> 00:07:52,671
[narrator] john brings
a medicine man to the ranch
shortly after.
150
00:07:52,706 --> 00:07:56,141
And he confirms john's fears.
151
00:07:56,176 --> 00:08:00,645
[soto] I showed him the clips
and when he heard it...
152
00:08:00,681 --> 00:08:04,316
- [woman calling] hey!
- [soto] he said he could
feel the energy
153
00:08:04,351 --> 00:08:06,518
That he knew what it was.
154
00:08:06,553 --> 00:08:09,988
So, he proceeded with
his ceremony.
155
00:08:12,192 --> 00:08:17,395
[soto] he gave me
a small pouch filled with
white ash,
156
00:08:17,431 --> 00:08:19,264
To keep with me.
157
00:08:19,299 --> 00:08:22,167
We put it on all the firearms.
158
00:08:22,202 --> 00:08:23,735
We blessed the animals.
159
00:08:23,804 --> 00:08:27,672
So, I have a pouch that I keep
with me when I'm out there.
160
00:08:27,708 --> 00:08:30,408
It's supposed to help,
keep it at bay.
161
00:08:30,444 --> 00:08:32,777
[mcneill] the question of
what it wants is
162
00:08:32,813 --> 00:08:34,379
Really the most
frightening thing here.
163
00:08:34,414 --> 00:08:35,280
[woman calling] hey!
164
00:08:35,315 --> 00:08:37,682
Because we don't know.
165
00:08:37,718 --> 00:08:40,952
-This is an ongoing problem.
- [voice calling] hey!
166
00:08:40,988 --> 00:08:43,788
This is not something where
there's an obvious,
167
00:08:43,824 --> 00:08:47,926
Easily known remedy that
exists for everyone.
168
00:08:47,961 --> 00:08:51,563
[narrator] for now, john is
remaining extremely cautious
169
00:08:51,598 --> 00:08:53,164
While at the ranch.
170
00:08:53,200 --> 00:08:55,734
[soto] I keep my head on
a swivel, so to speak.
171
00:08:55,769 --> 00:08:57,769
Just kind of looking around,
watching everything,
172
00:08:57,804 --> 00:09:00,472
Listening to all the sounds,
just a little more
173
00:09:00,507 --> 00:09:02,040
Vigilant than I already was.
174
00:09:02,075 --> 00:09:05,443
[narrator] and he's learning
to live with his
new perspective,
175
00:09:05,479 --> 00:09:06,745
On everything.
176
00:09:06,780 --> 00:09:10,649
[soto] they have changed me.
Now, I believe in more things
177
00:09:10,684 --> 00:09:14,252
Than I did before.
I didn't believe in any of it.
178
00:09:14,288 --> 00:09:15,587
I wasn't having any of it.
179
00:09:15,622 --> 00:09:18,690
And then it's almost like once
you experience something
like this,
180
00:09:18,725 --> 00:09:21,159
Then you believe,
all of a sudden.
181
00:09:21,161 --> 00:09:22,961
[woman calling]
182
00:09:26,567 --> 00:09:29,734
[narrator] coming up, a man on
a smoke break
183
00:09:29,770 --> 00:09:33,138
Is spied on by a ghost.
184
00:09:42,983 --> 00:09:45,650
[narrator] a ghost with
unfinished business,
185
00:09:45,686 --> 00:09:48,787
Keeping its essence among
the living.
186
00:09:49,723 --> 00:09:52,490
A spirit, whose life
ended tragically,
187
00:09:52,526 --> 00:09:57,095
Doomed to haunt the site
of its traumatic demise.
188
00:09:58,699 --> 00:10:02,334
The japanese have a term for
such apparitions.
189
00:10:02,369 --> 00:10:03,735
"the yurei."
190
00:10:03,770 --> 00:10:06,571
Mystical visions draped
in white,
191
00:10:06,607 --> 00:10:09,641
Who are unable to move
into the afterlife.
192
00:10:09,676 --> 00:10:13,211
People have spoken about
these ethereal beings
193
00:10:13,246 --> 00:10:15,280
For hundreds of years.
194
00:10:16,450 --> 00:10:18,383
And recently, one of them
195
00:10:18,418 --> 00:10:20,452
May have been caught
196
00:10:20,487 --> 00:10:23,188
On a rooftop security camera.
197
00:10:33,467 --> 00:10:35,500
[narrator] August, 2009.
198
00:10:35,535 --> 00:10:38,303
Tokyo, japan.
199
00:10:40,807 --> 00:10:43,575
A man is on the roof of his
office building,
200
00:10:43,610 --> 00:10:45,677
Taking a cigarette break.
201
00:10:46,580 --> 00:10:50,215
And he's about to get
some company.
202
00:10:55,322 --> 00:10:57,389
Watch the window in the door,
203
00:10:57,424 --> 00:10:58,990
As a shadow approaches.
204
00:10:59,793 --> 00:11:03,261
Followed by what
appears to be
205
00:11:03,296 --> 00:11:05,063
A person.
206
00:11:07,467 --> 00:11:09,801
Whoever it is
stands in the doorway
207
00:11:09,836 --> 00:11:13,171
And seems to watch
the man outside,
208
00:11:14,574 --> 00:11:18,376
Who is apparently
completely unaware.
209
00:11:21,548 --> 00:11:24,616
The man finishes
his cigarette.
210
00:11:24,651 --> 00:11:28,086
And here is where it gets
really creepy.
211
00:11:37,798 --> 00:11:39,364
[narrator] did you see that?
212
00:11:40,333 --> 00:11:41,633
Watch again.
213
00:11:41,668 --> 00:11:44,169
As the man opens the door,
214
00:11:44,204 --> 00:11:47,038
The figure somehow
215
00:11:49,142 --> 00:11:50,175
Vanishes.
216
00:11:54,514 --> 00:11:57,248
How is this possible?
217
00:11:57,284 --> 00:12:00,418
Okay, this is creepy.
218
00:12:00,454 --> 00:12:02,987
Emphasis on "eep."
219
00:12:04,791 --> 00:12:07,525
What I find especially
unsettling about this
220
00:12:07,561 --> 00:12:10,795
Is how mundane everything
appears to be for the man.
221
00:12:10,831 --> 00:12:13,498
He is just out having
a smoke break,
222
00:12:13,533 --> 00:12:17,368
As something watches
him, unnoticed.
223
00:12:19,106 --> 00:12:21,473
[mcneill] my favorite thing
about this clip
224
00:12:21,508 --> 00:12:23,842
Is that we get to compare
the woman
225
00:12:23,877 --> 00:12:27,712
Who appears in the doorway
to the man, who appears in the
doorway before her.
226
00:12:27,748 --> 00:12:29,914
So we see them approach
the door.
227
00:12:29,950 --> 00:12:32,650
We see him come out,
we see him stand outside.
228
00:12:32,686 --> 00:12:36,621
We have a clear sense of what
a corporeal human looks like
229
00:12:36,656 --> 00:12:39,624
When approaching that door
and coming through it.
230
00:12:39,659 --> 00:12:41,526
[ronny leblanc] and when
he turns to open the door,
231
00:12:41,561 --> 00:12:43,595
I'm waiting for this person
to come forward.
232
00:12:43,630 --> 00:12:45,130
And when no one is there,
233
00:12:45,165 --> 00:12:49,534
That moment you realize that
you are looking at
potentially a spirit
234
00:12:49,569 --> 00:12:54,672
In this doorway and to see
it disappear was
pretty amazing.
235
00:12:54,708 --> 00:12:58,409
[narrator] so, what kind of
spirit would be hanging out
236
00:12:58,445 --> 00:13:01,546
By the doorway to a roof?
237
00:13:01,581 --> 00:13:05,650
This looks like a classic
yurei from japanese belief.
238
00:13:05,685 --> 00:13:08,019
Meaning faint spirit,
239
00:13:08,054 --> 00:13:10,555
It is an umbrella term
for ghosts
240
00:13:10,590 --> 00:13:14,325
Who appear in a white
burial kimono
241
00:13:14,361 --> 00:13:17,595
With long black hanging hair.
242
00:13:17,631 --> 00:13:19,697
And they are spirits
243
00:13:19,733 --> 00:13:22,867
Who do not have
a peaceful afterlife.
244
00:13:24,404 --> 00:13:27,806
[dan sturges] there's a great
theory behind place memory
hauntings that
245
00:13:27,841 --> 00:13:30,809
An area can absorb
that energy.
246
00:13:30,844 --> 00:13:33,211
And when the time is right,
we don't know what
the triggers are
247
00:13:33,246 --> 00:13:36,915
Or what the situation has to
be, but that energy can
be released.
248
00:13:36,950 --> 00:13:39,751
[sandalo] what typically
results in a haunting
249
00:13:39,786 --> 00:13:43,388
Is when somebody's life
is cut short
250
00:13:43,423 --> 00:13:45,490
In a very traumatic way.
251
00:13:45,525 --> 00:13:49,227
So, typically that tends
to be by homicide
252
00:13:49,262 --> 00:13:50,595
Or by suicide.
253
00:13:50,630 --> 00:13:53,598
[narrator] and in fact, just
a few years earlier,
254
00:13:53,633 --> 00:13:58,436
A young woman reportedly
committed suicide
on this roof.
255
00:13:58,471 --> 00:13:59,938
I find that the majority of
256
00:13:59,973 --> 00:14:03,675
The places that I go to
investigate involve suicides.
257
00:14:03,710 --> 00:14:07,445
Because those are the energies
that tend to be the stickiest,
258
00:14:07,480 --> 00:14:09,514
Just because of that
mental strain
259
00:14:09,549 --> 00:14:14,052
That happens in those final
moments before they
decide to take their lives.
260
00:14:18,725 --> 00:14:22,360
[narrator] if this is
the spirit of the woman
who died here,
261
00:14:22,395 --> 00:14:27,532
Why would she choose this
man's smoking break to
suddenly appear?
262
00:14:27,567 --> 00:14:28,800
[brian cano] we don't know
why he's there
263
00:14:28,835 --> 00:14:31,636
But maybe he's thinking
about something,
264
00:14:31,671 --> 00:14:35,006
Maybe he has problems
and stresses of his own.
265
00:14:35,041 --> 00:14:39,477
Even though we don't see
a physical interaction
between these two,
266
00:14:39,512 --> 00:14:43,681
Who knows? Maybe there is
their own personal version of
267
00:14:43,717 --> 00:14:45,683
It's a wonderful life
going on
268
00:14:45,719 --> 00:14:49,487
In that moment between
her and him.
269
00:14:49,522 --> 00:14:52,423
Maybe that helps her to move
on, to cross over.
270
00:14:53,627 --> 00:14:56,327
[narrator] whether the yurei
was here to help someone,
271
00:14:56,363 --> 00:14:58,830
Repeat a past traumatic event
272
00:14:58,865 --> 00:15:03,534
Or do something else entirely,
we may never know.
273
00:15:03,570 --> 00:15:08,373
But perhaps the most important
takeaway here is this.
274
00:15:08,408 --> 00:15:11,242
No matter how alone you
think you are,
275
00:15:11,278 --> 00:15:13,211
There's always someone
276
00:15:13,613 --> 00:15:15,146
Or something
277
00:15:15,548 --> 00:15:16,948
Watching.
278
00:15:20,353 --> 00:15:21,753
Coming up,
279
00:15:21,788 --> 00:15:26,157
A paranormal investigator,
crosses paths with
something evil...
280
00:15:27,460 --> 00:15:28,559
...In the woods of England.
281
00:15:28,595 --> 00:15:30,128
[man speaking]
282
00:15:32,232 --> 00:15:33,264
[panting heavily]
283
00:15:41,908 --> 00:15:44,442
[narrator] the winter hill
region of England
284
00:15:44,477 --> 00:15:46,544
Has seen its fair share
285
00:15:46,579 --> 00:15:49,213
Of tragic
and bizarre happenings.
286
00:15:49,249 --> 00:15:51,149
Murder,
287
00:15:51,184 --> 00:15:52,417
Plane crashes,
288
00:15:52,452 --> 00:15:54,419
Even ufo sightings.
289
00:15:54,454 --> 00:15:57,755
The leftover energy from each
and every event
290
00:15:57,791 --> 00:16:02,226
Is forever baked into the
storied english countryside.
291
00:16:03,830 --> 00:16:07,765
Now, add to that
a mysterious structure,
292
00:16:07,801 --> 00:16:10,601
Said to be the site of
gruesome executions,
293
00:16:10,637 --> 00:16:13,404
Sometime during the roman
occupation of England,
294
00:16:13,440 --> 00:16:15,873
Almost 2000 years ago.
295
00:16:16,409 --> 00:16:17,642
And what you have is
296
00:16:17,677 --> 00:16:21,512
A breeding ground
for paranormal activity.
297
00:16:22,716 --> 00:16:26,250
Which is what brought one
daring explorer to the area,
298
00:16:26,286 --> 00:16:28,486
To investigate.
299
00:16:28,521 --> 00:16:31,789
A decision that he would
almost immediately
300
00:16:32,225 --> 00:16:33,958
Come to regret.
301
00:16:34,627 --> 00:16:36,260
[man speaking]
302
00:16:38,331 --> 00:16:41,165
[panting heavily]
303
00:16:47,474 --> 00:16:49,307
[narrator] February, 2020.
304
00:16:49,342 --> 00:16:52,477
In winter hill, bolton, uk.
305
00:16:52,512 --> 00:16:54,679
It's a damp winter night,
306
00:16:54,714 --> 00:16:58,383
And danny duffy is traveling
alone through the wet woods,
307
00:16:58,418 --> 00:17:01,419
With one destination in mind.
308
00:17:01,454 --> 00:17:05,123
[duffy speaking]
309
00:17:10,563 --> 00:17:11,529
My name is danny
310
00:17:11,564 --> 00:17:14,265
And I am the person who
filmed the video.
311
00:17:16,136 --> 00:17:17,268
[duffy speaking]
312
00:17:40,894 --> 00:17:43,694
[slaughter] if people were
executed on this property
313
00:17:43,730 --> 00:17:47,632
It would give it a real reason
to be haunted.
314
00:17:47,667 --> 00:17:51,436
[narrator] and sure enough,
before danny even
reaches the hut,
315
00:17:51,471 --> 00:17:54,038
He hears this.
316
00:17:58,344 --> 00:18:00,144
[duffy] what the hell
was that?
317
00:18:01,681 --> 00:18:05,116
[narrator] followed shortly
after by another.
318
00:18:09,689 --> 00:18:11,289
[duffy] what the hell?
319
00:18:22,936 --> 00:18:24,669
[sagers] the british woods
are ancient,
320
00:18:24,704 --> 00:18:28,439
And they're enchanting
and intimidating.
321
00:18:28,475 --> 00:18:31,142
But the sounds of
these screams
322
00:18:31,177 --> 00:18:34,712
Which seem to be emanating
at a close proximity
323
00:18:34,747 --> 00:18:37,281
With a deafening sound,
324
00:18:37,317 --> 00:18:39,317
It sent a chill down my spine.
325
00:18:41,454 --> 00:18:43,454
[duffy] what the hell?
326
00:18:43,490 --> 00:18:46,357
[narrator] danny is terrified,
327
00:18:46,392 --> 00:18:48,392
But continues on.
328
00:18:48,428 --> 00:18:52,230
And finally arrives.
329
00:18:55,268 --> 00:18:57,168
[duffy speaking]
330
00:18:58,671 --> 00:19:00,805
[derek hayes] this place
looks terrifying,
331
00:19:00,840 --> 00:19:02,473
Throw ghosts out of
the equation.
332
00:19:02,509 --> 00:19:04,742
This place is spooky from
the get-go.
333
00:19:04,777 --> 00:19:08,813
[narrator] in order to
contact, whatever spirits may
be living at the hut,
334
00:19:08,848 --> 00:19:12,183
Danny forgoes
modern-day gadgets
335
00:19:12,218 --> 00:19:16,587
And attempts something
a little more old-school.
336
00:19:16,623 --> 00:19:18,122
[duffy speaking]
337
00:19:22,595 --> 00:19:26,297
[mcneill] it definitely seemed
that this is a space
338
00:19:26,332 --> 00:19:27,631
For ritual purposes.
339
00:19:27,634 --> 00:19:30,935
And danny himself did this.
He lit candles in the hut.
340
00:19:30,970 --> 00:19:35,306
He understood that this was
the sort of place where you
cast out
341
00:19:35,341 --> 00:19:36,774
Questions or intentions.
342
00:19:36,809 --> 00:19:39,544
And you get responses
back if you're lucky
343
00:19:39,579 --> 00:19:42,413
Or unlucky as the case may be.
344
00:19:42,448 --> 00:19:43,981
[duffy speaking]
345
00:19:55,862 --> 00:19:58,062
[narrator] the phantom
scream again.
346
00:19:58,565 --> 00:20:01,365
[breathing heavily]
347
00:20:01,401 --> 00:20:05,903
This time, as if it's coming
from inside the hut.
348
00:20:06,606 --> 00:20:09,674
But there's no one else here.
349
00:20:09,709 --> 00:20:14,212
At least no other
human beings.
350
00:20:35,068 --> 00:20:36,300
Oh!
351
00:20:36,336 --> 00:20:38,069
I have heard of investigators
352
00:20:38,104 --> 00:20:41,806
Encountering a disembodied
scream in haunted locations.
353
00:20:42,875 --> 00:20:47,278
And I personally have
experienced this phenomenon.
354
00:20:49,649 --> 00:20:52,617
[sagers] automatically, it
makes me think of the banshee,
355
00:20:52,652 --> 00:20:54,652
From irish folklore.
356
00:20:54,687 --> 00:20:57,455
Now, this woman
of fairy mounds
357
00:20:57,490 --> 00:20:59,590
Was said to moan,
358
00:20:59,626 --> 00:21:03,527
Mournfully, at the time that
a death was imminent.
359
00:21:03,563 --> 00:21:05,096
[duffy speaking]
360
00:21:07,533 --> 00:21:08,799
[narrator] whatever this
thing is,
361
00:21:08,835 --> 00:21:12,903
Danny is too freaked out
to stay inside the hut.
362
00:21:12,939 --> 00:21:17,341
So he leaves and starts to
head back to his car.
363
00:21:17,377 --> 00:21:18,376
[duffy speaking]
364
00:21:23,049 --> 00:21:26,083
[narrator] but it's not
over yet.
365
00:21:28,388 --> 00:21:30,021
[duffy speaking]
366
00:21:36,229 --> 00:21:37,528
[panting heavily]
367
00:21:37,563 --> 00:21:38,596
[narrator] watch again,
368
00:21:38,665 --> 00:21:41,332
As some kind of shadowy figure
369
00:21:41,367 --> 00:21:44,035
Passes by in the distance.
370
00:21:44,504 --> 00:21:47,204
[duffy speaking]
371
00:21:56,015 --> 00:21:58,416
[rachel evans] knowing
this place's back story
372
00:21:58,451 --> 00:22:00,618
And then going in
there willingly,
373
00:22:00,653 --> 00:22:04,221
Putting yourself in that
vulnerable position,
374
00:22:04,257 --> 00:22:05,423
I would be terrified.
375
00:22:05,458 --> 00:22:06,857
Even if you know what
you're doing,
376
00:22:06,893 --> 00:22:10,461
Even if you've heard
the stories, nothing can
prepare you for
377
00:22:10,496 --> 00:22:11,862
Experiencing it.
378
00:22:11,898 --> 00:22:14,699
There comes a time on
an investigation
379
00:22:14,734 --> 00:22:16,701
Where you need to get
out of there
380
00:22:16,736 --> 00:22:20,371
[duffy] whoa! What the hell?
[sagers] and this is the time.
381
00:22:20,406 --> 00:22:22,239
Danny made the right call.
382
00:22:22,275 --> 00:22:24,008
[duffy speaking]
383
00:22:24,577 --> 00:22:27,178
[breathing frantically]
384
00:22:37,223 --> 00:22:38,556
[narrator] coming up...
385
00:22:38,591 --> 00:22:43,427
A line of ufos
strikes fear in san diego.
386
00:22:43,463 --> 00:22:44,995
[woman speaking]
387
00:22:55,508 --> 00:22:57,975
[narrator] when confronted by
the extraordinary,
388
00:23:01,714 --> 00:23:03,914
Our brains automatically
389
00:23:03,950 --> 00:23:07,251
Start to formulate
a rational explanation
390
00:23:07,286 --> 00:23:09,253
To keep us calm.
391
00:23:11,491 --> 00:23:13,824
But, in those rare instances
392
00:23:13,860 --> 00:23:17,661
When the situation is
so overwhelming
393
00:23:17,697 --> 00:23:20,664
That our minds are unable
to explain it away,
394
00:23:20,700 --> 00:23:23,768
Our instincts kick in.
395
00:23:23,803 --> 00:23:27,238
And we shift into
survival mode.
396
00:23:28,741 --> 00:23:30,508
One couple in san diego
397
00:23:30,543 --> 00:23:34,345
Found themselves in one of
these terrifying situations.
398
00:23:34,380 --> 00:23:37,214
[man] it is
completely strange.
399
00:23:37,250 --> 00:23:38,749
[woman speaking]
400
00:23:38,785 --> 00:23:40,651
[narrator]
and they're still reeling
401
00:23:40,686 --> 00:23:42,520
From the experience.
402
00:23:42,555 --> 00:23:44,121
[woman speaking]
403
00:23:51,364 --> 00:23:53,297
[narrator] April 1st, 2020.
404
00:23:53,332 --> 00:23:55,866
San diego, california.
405
00:23:55,902 --> 00:23:59,737
Stuart clark and his wife
harper are sitting
on their deck,
406
00:23:59,772 --> 00:24:02,673
Enjoying the evening view
of the city,
407
00:24:02,708 --> 00:24:07,445
When they both notice some
strange lights hovering
in the distance,
408
00:24:07,480 --> 00:24:09,213
Near the pacific ocean.
409
00:24:10,016 --> 00:24:13,818
Soon, even more begin
to appear.
410
00:24:14,253 --> 00:24:15,986
[harper speaking]
411
00:24:19,525 --> 00:24:22,359
[narrator] and they continue
to multiply.
412
00:24:24,530 --> 00:24:26,263
[stuart] there's a fourth one.
413
00:24:28,601 --> 00:24:30,100
[harper speaking]
414
00:24:30,570 --> 00:24:32,369
[stuart] yeah.
415
00:24:32,405 --> 00:24:35,372
My name is stuart,
and this is my video.
416
00:24:36,943 --> 00:24:40,411
Yes, it was something that
we've never seen
before, obviously.
417
00:24:40,446 --> 00:24:43,147
And it was worth filming.
418
00:24:43,182 --> 00:24:44,181
[harper speaking]
419
00:24:52,825 --> 00:24:56,594
They just flickered on
and appeared very bright.
420
00:24:56,629 --> 00:25:00,397
And relatively close to
each other.
421
00:25:00,433 --> 00:25:03,234
Seemed like they were
precisely spaced.
422
00:25:03,269 --> 00:25:04,301
And they didn't move.
423
00:25:06,239 --> 00:25:07,271
[harper speaking]
424
00:25:08,140 --> 00:25:09,139
[stuart] wow.
425
00:25:09,175 --> 00:25:10,341
[harper speaking]
426
00:25:11,744 --> 00:25:15,446
[stuart] it's
completely strange.
427
00:25:15,481 --> 00:25:17,481
[harper speaking]
428
00:25:17,517 --> 00:25:19,750
Kind of a running joke
in our family where
429
00:25:19,785 --> 00:25:24,655
My wife is known
as the risk analysis person.
430
00:25:24,690 --> 00:25:29,727
Her first go to
is to question if this is
going to be safe or not.
431
00:25:29,762 --> 00:25:33,163
This is definitely
a risk analysis moment.
432
00:25:33,199 --> 00:25:34,298
[harper speaking]
433
00:25:39,705 --> 00:25:41,372
[cano] in today's culture,
434
00:25:41,407 --> 00:25:44,808
We assume that we're very
savvy. We've got our finger on
the pulse of what's going on.
435
00:25:44,844 --> 00:25:48,045
But when you see something
like this,
436
00:25:48,080 --> 00:25:52,550
Something very primal emerges.
It's fear.
437
00:25:52,585 --> 00:25:54,485
Fear of the unknown.
438
00:25:54,520 --> 00:25:57,154
[stuart] six, six!
439
00:25:57,189 --> 00:25:58,222
[harper speaking]
440
00:26:03,929 --> 00:26:06,630
I think that the commentary we
get saying,
441
00:26:06,666 --> 00:26:09,667
"hey, this is not good.
Someone is attacking us,"
442
00:26:09,702 --> 00:26:14,538
Is a testament to how
real these experiences are.
443
00:26:14,574 --> 00:26:16,006
[hayes] this looks terrifying.
444
00:26:16,042 --> 00:26:19,443
I'll be honest. I might have
felt the same way
in that same situation.
445
00:26:21,547 --> 00:26:23,414
[narrator] when harper
checks the local news,
446
00:26:24,250 --> 00:26:25,282
She finds nothing.
447
00:26:26,285 --> 00:26:27,651
And the phenomenon
448
00:26:27,687 --> 00:26:32,156
Shows no signs
of slowing down.
449
00:26:32,191 --> 00:26:33,357
[stuart] seven!
450
00:26:35,494 --> 00:26:37,127
[narrator] on the brink
of sheer panic,
451
00:26:37,697 --> 00:26:39,663
Harper turns to stuart,
452
00:26:39,699 --> 00:26:42,833
Who takes his best,
logical guess.
453
00:26:42,868 --> 00:26:43,734
[harper speaking]
454
00:26:43,769 --> 00:26:46,070
[stuart coughs] I think
they're flares.
455
00:26:47,373 --> 00:26:49,873
I think
they're illumination flares,
456
00:26:49,909 --> 00:26:53,877
You see something just
kind of appear in the sky.
457
00:26:53,913 --> 00:26:55,813
So it could have been a signal
or some thing
458
00:26:55,848 --> 00:26:58,616
And the only thing that
I could think of would have
been a flare.
459
00:26:58,651 --> 00:27:03,821
[narrator] but, this guess
quickly starts to unravel.
460
00:27:04,690 --> 00:27:06,590
[stuart] they're very far
apart though.
461
00:27:06,626 --> 00:27:08,292
[harper speaking]
462
00:27:12,031 --> 00:27:18,535
[stuart] the elevation
being the same
is extraordinarily precise.
463
00:27:18,571 --> 00:27:20,704
[stuart] I didn't see them
descending at all.
464
00:27:20,740 --> 00:27:23,440
They were in line with
each other.
465
00:27:23,476 --> 00:27:26,510
Which I don't know how you can
maintain a light
466
00:27:26,545 --> 00:27:29,813
In a pre-positioned
elevation for
467
00:27:29,849 --> 00:27:33,617
Any amount of time,
without gravity taking effect.
468
00:27:33,653 --> 00:27:35,452
What goes up must come down.
469
00:27:35,488 --> 00:27:37,421
And these just,
470
00:27:38,391 --> 00:27:39,590
Turned on,
471
00:27:39,625 --> 00:27:41,358
And turned off.
472
00:27:43,529 --> 00:27:46,930
Often times,
people will mistake
473
00:27:46,966 --> 00:27:49,733
These type of strange
balls of light, these ufos,
474
00:27:49,769 --> 00:27:53,604
As paper lanterns or some kind
of flares.
475
00:27:53,639 --> 00:27:58,108
And flares typically will burn
out over a period of time.
476
00:27:59,545 --> 00:28:01,011
We see that these lights
477
00:28:01,047 --> 00:28:06,216
Are continuing
to move on and they're flying
together in unison,
478
00:28:06,252 --> 00:28:07,584
Hovering there,
479
00:28:07,620 --> 00:28:10,454
But they have a consistency
and a make up
480
00:28:10,489 --> 00:28:14,692
Of something that doesn't seem
to be of this earth.
481
00:28:14,727 --> 00:28:18,328
[narrator] eventually the
bizarre balls of light
482
00:28:18,364 --> 00:28:20,531
Fade back into the darkness.
483
00:28:20,566 --> 00:28:23,300
[stuart] one remains,
484
00:28:23,335 --> 00:28:25,469
Shortly to extinguish.
485
00:28:25,504 --> 00:28:26,737
[narrator] and when
they're gone,
486
00:28:26,772 --> 00:28:29,707
Stuart allows himself
one last thought.
487
00:28:30,409 --> 00:28:31,442
[stuart] hope it
wasn't aliens.
488
00:28:33,079 --> 00:28:39,817
[stuart] we're so
infinitesimally small in this
giant, unfathomable universe.
489
00:28:40,753 --> 00:28:44,121
It's not lost on me
how big it is out there.
490
00:28:44,657 --> 00:28:46,423
When you see a light,
491
00:28:46,459 --> 00:28:47,991
Or seven,
492
00:28:48,027 --> 00:28:49,059
In a line,
493
00:28:49,095 --> 00:28:51,028
I've got no frame of reference
of what that could be,
494
00:28:51,063 --> 00:28:55,232
It leads me to believe
it could be something
extraterrestrial.
495
00:28:56,535 --> 00:28:57,634
[narrator] even to this day,
496
00:28:57,670 --> 00:29:01,739
Stuart remains baffled by this
peculiar encounter.
497
00:29:01,774 --> 00:29:04,108
Nobody in our neighborhood
saw it.
498
00:29:05,778 --> 00:29:08,746
You know, it was definitely
one of those things
that if I didn't film it,
499
00:29:08,781 --> 00:29:10,247
I wouldn't have believed it.
500
00:29:10,282 --> 00:29:11,415
[harper speaking]
501
00:29:14,487 --> 00:29:18,489
[narrator] coming up,
a mysterious figure in india
502
00:29:18,524 --> 00:29:20,724
Terrorizes a car full
of friends.
503
00:29:20,760 --> 00:29:22,426
[man speaking telugu]
504
00:29:33,839 --> 00:29:38,742
[narrator] zombies,
skin-walkers, wraiths.
505
00:29:38,778 --> 00:29:43,547
All creatures that can appear
human from a distance.
506
00:29:43,582 --> 00:29:47,584
But get a little closer
and it becomes very clear
507
00:29:47,620 --> 00:29:52,389
That they are decidedly
not human.
508
00:29:52,424 --> 00:29:53,891
When it comes
to these encounters,
509
00:29:53,926 --> 00:29:58,595
The ability to discern between
the normal and paranormal
510
00:29:58,631 --> 00:30:03,634
Could mean the difference
between life and death.
511
00:30:03,669 --> 00:30:05,936
Such was the case
one night in india,
512
00:30:05,971 --> 00:30:10,474
When some friends came upon
a bizarre figure in the road,
513
00:30:10,509 --> 00:30:14,011
And knew almost immediately
that whatever it was,
514
00:30:14,647 --> 00:30:17,281
It was not of this world.
515
00:30:26,158 --> 00:30:27,658
December, 2020,
516
00:30:27,693 --> 00:30:31,995
Somewhere on the outskirts
of visakhapatnam, india.
517
00:30:32,031 --> 00:30:38,001
Amartej merla is on
a late night joyride
with a group of friends.
518
00:30:38,037 --> 00:30:42,439
Around 1:00 a.M.,
they turn on to a remote
stretch of road
519
00:30:42,474 --> 00:30:45,142
In a densely forested
and unlit area,
520
00:30:46,478 --> 00:30:48,011
And come upon this.
521
00:30:51,550 --> 00:30:53,116
[man speaking telugu]
522
00:30:54,920 --> 00:30:57,921
[narrator] some kind
of figure, possibly naked,
523
00:30:57,957 --> 00:31:02,159
Sitting in an odd position in
the middle of the road.
524
00:31:03,295 --> 00:31:04,394
[man speaking telugu]
525
00:31:05,731 --> 00:31:08,599
[narrator] and they
are unable to tell
526
00:31:08,634 --> 00:31:12,402
Whether the figure is sitting
backwards or forwards.
527
00:31:14,707 --> 00:31:18,408
Amartej and his friends
are a little freaked out.
528
00:31:18,444 --> 00:31:20,444
But they haven't seen
anything yet.
529
00:31:23,449 --> 00:31:25,382
Watch closely,
530
00:31:26,619 --> 00:31:31,922
As the figure pops up
and begins to walk...
531
00:31:32,291 --> 00:31:33,390
Backwards.
532
00:31:35,661 --> 00:31:37,761
[man speaking telugu]
533
00:31:37,796 --> 00:31:40,664
[narrator] until it comes to
the edge of the forest,
534
00:31:40,699 --> 00:31:42,532
Stands there for a moment,
535
00:31:42,568 --> 00:31:46,236
And eventually disappears
into the brush.
536
00:31:47,539 --> 00:31:50,274
What just happened?
537
00:31:51,577 --> 00:31:53,510
I'm out! That is my
response to this.
538
00:31:53,545 --> 00:31:56,513
I'm out, I would drive away,
I would run away.
539
00:31:56,548 --> 00:31:58,448
I would not be there.
540
00:31:58,484 --> 00:32:01,518
That is too weird, too weird.
541
00:32:01,553 --> 00:32:04,488
[slaughter] as a person that
works at night consistently,
542
00:32:04,523 --> 00:32:06,857
I am driving on highways
alone at like
543
00:32:06,892 --> 00:32:09,993
1:00, 2:00, 3:00 in the
morning pretty frequently.
544
00:32:10,029 --> 00:32:13,730
And I try to put myself in
the position of these people.
545
00:32:13,766 --> 00:32:17,301
If I were to see something
like this off the road,
546
00:32:17,336 --> 00:32:18,869
I wouldn't know what to do.
547
00:32:19,805 --> 00:32:22,072
[narrator] yes, it's
definitely creepy.
548
00:32:22,641 --> 00:32:25,475
But first things first.
549
00:32:25,511 --> 00:32:29,046
Is this figure human?
550
00:32:29,615 --> 00:32:30,847
[man speaking telugu]
551
00:32:31,717 --> 00:32:33,583
[mcneill] if this
is a human being,
552
00:32:33,619 --> 00:32:35,919
Something other than a human
553
00:32:35,955 --> 00:32:41,158
Is controlling that body
because it was
using it wrong.
554
00:32:41,193 --> 00:32:45,762
But I'm not even convinced
that this was a human body
that we were seeing.
555
00:32:45,798 --> 00:32:49,800
There's a distinct possibility
that this could be
a feral human.
556
00:32:49,835 --> 00:32:52,536
Now this is
a very rare phenomenon
but it has happened,
557
00:32:52,571 --> 00:32:54,838
And it actually has happened
in india where
558
00:32:54,873 --> 00:32:58,108
Children will somehow find
themselves alone in the forest
559
00:32:58,143 --> 00:33:02,446
And through the help
of possibly animals or just
their own efforts,
560
00:33:02,481 --> 00:33:04,314
They managed to survive
into adulthood.
561
00:33:05,751 --> 00:33:07,484
[narrator] but, if this
is a human,
562
00:33:07,519 --> 00:33:09,086
Feral or otherwise,
563
00:33:09,722 --> 00:33:12,622
Why is it moving backwards?
564
00:33:12,658 --> 00:33:16,526
Initially I thought that
maybe this clip was playing
in reverse,
565
00:33:16,562 --> 00:33:18,662
Because it just seemed
very unnatural.
566
00:33:18,697 --> 00:33:24,468
But I did watch
it in reverse, and that seemed
even more unnatural.
567
00:33:24,503 --> 00:33:28,005
The motion almost seemed
to be floating.
568
00:33:28,040 --> 00:33:31,775
Walking backwards
but in such a way that
it seemed to be effortless
569
00:33:31,810 --> 00:33:36,179
As if they're naturally
walking this way all the time.
570
00:33:36,215 --> 00:33:37,381
[man speaking telugu]
571
00:33:37,416 --> 00:33:38,915
According to other beliefs,
572
00:33:38,951 --> 00:33:42,419
Speaking backwards or saying
the lord's prayer backwards,
573
00:33:42,454 --> 00:33:44,354
Or walking backwards
574
00:33:44,390 --> 00:33:47,324
Are associated
with evil intent,
575
00:33:47,359 --> 00:33:49,426
Even satan.
576
00:33:51,497 --> 00:33:55,532
[slaughter] I'm seeing
someone who could potentially
be possessed by
577
00:33:55,567 --> 00:33:58,969
A very powerful
non-human energy.
578
00:33:59,004 --> 00:34:01,838
[narrator] and if not
a possessed human,
579
00:34:01,874 --> 00:34:05,509
Could it be something even
more terrifying?
580
00:34:05,544 --> 00:34:08,378
Is this maybe a creature?
581
00:34:08,414 --> 00:34:11,381
Something that is humanoid
in nature,
582
00:34:11,417 --> 00:34:13,383
Or maybe something
more nefarious
583
00:34:14,186 --> 00:34:15,685
Like a skin-walker.
584
00:34:15,721 --> 00:34:18,622
A shape-shifter that maybe
got stuck
585
00:34:18,657 --> 00:34:22,392
In a certain form.
Maybe who hasn't completed
the transformation.
586
00:34:23,796 --> 00:34:28,732
There are spirits known as
chudail in india.
587
00:34:28,767 --> 00:34:33,503
And they have feet that face
the opposite way
588
00:34:33,539 --> 00:34:37,274
And part of why they do that
is to leave footprints that
589
00:34:37,309 --> 00:34:39,543
Go the other direction so they
590
00:34:39,578 --> 00:34:41,411
Can fool people of where
they're going.
591
00:34:42,714 --> 00:34:45,348
[mcneill] the thing I have
seen most recently that
592
00:34:45,384 --> 00:34:47,951
Looked like this is the rake.
593
00:34:47,986 --> 00:34:50,554
I mean, a creature that comes
to us almost entirely from
594
00:34:50,589 --> 00:34:52,722
Creepy pasta, from
digital folklore.
595
00:34:52,758 --> 00:34:56,426
The rake is a pale,
spindly creature
596
00:34:56,462 --> 00:35:00,430
That looks like it's sort of
crawling with you know maybe
597
00:35:00,466 --> 00:35:02,632
Overly jointed elbows
and knees
598
00:35:02,668 --> 00:35:04,835
And very very pale skin.
599
00:35:04,870 --> 00:35:08,805
[narrator] so many
possibilities, none of which
600
00:35:08,841 --> 00:35:11,508
You want to run into on
a road late at night.
601
00:35:11,543 --> 00:35:13,176
[man speaking telugu]
602
00:35:15,080 --> 00:35:18,782
[narrator] the encounter
scared amartej
and his friends so much
603
00:35:18,817 --> 00:35:22,319
That they haven't been
back to the area since.
604
00:35:23,522 --> 00:35:26,389
Which is most
definitely for the best.
605
00:35:28,427 --> 00:35:29,593
[man speaking telugu]
606
00:35:30,529 --> 00:35:32,395
[mcneill] this is one
of the creepiest
607
00:35:32,464 --> 00:35:33,897
Pieces of footage I've
ever seen on the show.
608
00:35:33,932 --> 00:35:39,269
And I've seen a lot
of really creepy things,
and this one is just...
609
00:35:40,205 --> 00:35:42,372
It's not vague.
610
00:35:42,407 --> 00:35:43,607
It's not ambiguous.
611
00:35:43,642 --> 00:35:46,476
It's not hard to tell
what's happening.
612
00:35:46,512 --> 00:35:48,311
It's just wrong.
613
00:35:52,551 --> 00:35:56,953
[narrator] coming up,
a cryptid, born in the sewer.
614
00:36:06,632 --> 00:36:08,732
[narrator] when someone
witnesses a cryptid,
615
00:36:08,767 --> 00:36:12,636
It's a shocking and often
terrifying experience
616
00:36:12,671 --> 00:36:16,139
That is forever burned
into their memory.
617
00:36:17,543 --> 00:36:20,243
But those encounters
are most often
618
00:36:20,279 --> 00:36:21,778
In wide open spaces,
619
00:36:21,813 --> 00:36:25,749
With plenty of distance
between you and the creature.
620
00:36:27,019 --> 00:36:32,255
Now, just imagine if you came
across one of these cryptids
621
00:36:32,291 --> 00:36:34,558
In a tightly confined space.
622
00:36:34,593 --> 00:36:38,695
Like say, the bathroom
in your own home.
623
00:36:39,731 --> 00:36:42,599
That's what happened to
a couple in malaysia,
624
00:36:42,634 --> 00:36:45,402
When something slithered
out of their toilet
625
00:36:46,371 --> 00:36:48,405
And into their lives.
626
00:36:59,685 --> 00:37:02,819
[narrator] October 6th, 2017.
627
00:37:03,388 --> 00:37:05,388
Alor setar, malaysia.
628
00:37:06,425 --> 00:37:09,492
Zul hanif anip and his
wife puteri
629
00:37:09,528 --> 00:37:11,828
Are home with their child,
630
00:37:11,863 --> 00:37:16,066
When they hear odd noises
coming from the bathroom.
631
00:37:17,336 --> 00:37:19,970
So zul goes to check it out
632
00:37:20,372 --> 00:37:21,972
And sees this.
633
00:37:26,411 --> 00:37:29,546
A six and a half foot, slimy,
634
00:37:29,581 --> 00:37:31,781
Extremely grotesque creature,
635
00:37:31,817 --> 00:37:35,285
Slithering out
of their toilet.
636
00:37:39,758 --> 00:37:42,626
Zul and puteri are stunned.
637
00:37:42,661 --> 00:37:45,128
It resembles a snake.
638
00:37:45,897 --> 00:37:48,431
But most definitely is not.
639
00:37:49,467 --> 00:37:52,302
So, what is this thing?
640
00:37:53,338 --> 00:37:57,474
I mean... [laughs]
whatever it is,
641
00:37:57,509 --> 00:37:59,509
I wouldn't want to
be sitting on that toilet
642
00:37:59,544 --> 00:38:01,711
When it decides
to make its appearance.
643
00:38:02,648 --> 00:38:04,547
What kind of plumbing do
they have there?
644
00:38:04,583 --> 00:38:07,450
I mean this thing is thick,
big around.
645
00:38:07,486 --> 00:38:09,619
I mean as thick as a
boa constrictor.
646
00:38:09,655 --> 00:38:12,522
And it's got this
tiny little head.
647
00:38:12,557 --> 00:38:15,759
And it doesn't move like
a snake, if anything it's...
648
00:38:15,794 --> 00:38:19,796
It's more like a giant
sea slug or something.
649
00:38:19,831 --> 00:38:21,931
[mcneill] it sort of looks
thicker in body
650
00:38:21,967 --> 00:38:26,836
Like I might expect an
alligator or some sort of
large lizard to look but...
651
00:38:27,739 --> 00:38:30,840
It's not clear that it
looks like sludge.
652
00:38:30,876 --> 00:38:34,577
It looks like living sludge.
653
00:38:34,613 --> 00:38:37,781
[cano] in that area there
is local legend
654
00:38:37,816 --> 00:38:40,517
And precedence to say
that what's being seen
655
00:38:40,552 --> 00:38:43,620
Might point to something
else entirely.
656
00:38:43,655 --> 00:38:46,789
A creature of legend known
as the nabau,
657
00:38:46,792 --> 00:38:50,460
Which in malaysian
culture is a huge,
658
00:38:50,495 --> 00:38:53,463
Serpentine, aquatic creature
659
00:38:53,498 --> 00:38:55,965
And it was said to have
the head of a dragon,
660
00:38:56,001 --> 00:39:00,036
Seven nostrils, hundred feet
in length, immense.
661
00:39:00,072 --> 00:39:02,639
[narrator] what makes
this even creepier is that
662
00:39:02,674 --> 00:39:06,209
It may have been lurking in
disturbingly close proximity
663
00:39:06,244 --> 00:39:07,744
For quite some time.
664
00:39:08,613 --> 00:39:10,780
Because when zul
checks the pipes,
665
00:39:10,816 --> 00:39:16,753
He can't find any entry point
for it to have gotten in
from the outside.
666
00:39:16,788 --> 00:39:20,256
Which leads him to
believe that the cryptid
667
00:39:20,292 --> 00:39:23,426
Grew up inside the pipes.
668
00:39:24,463 --> 00:39:26,796
[mcneill] just that idea alone
669
00:39:26,832 --> 00:39:30,867
Removes any sense of safety
that living in a structure
670
00:39:30,902 --> 00:39:33,703
With electricity and plumbing
and all of the
671
00:39:33,739 --> 00:39:36,639
Niceties of contemporary life.
672
00:39:36,675 --> 00:39:39,275
All that security,
out the window.
673
00:39:39,311 --> 00:39:41,578
Monsters might be
living in there.
674
00:39:41,613 --> 00:39:45,482
[mark sceurman] bathrooms
are supposed to be like
a safe haven to do things,
675
00:39:45,517 --> 00:39:49,185
And you don't want to see
this thing crawling out
of the toilet, I mean,
676
00:39:49,654 --> 00:39:50,720
I would freak out.
677
00:39:50,756 --> 00:39:53,089
[slaughter] if this is some
sort of new creature
678
00:39:53,125 --> 00:39:55,392
From another planet,
alien, you know,
679
00:39:55,427 --> 00:39:58,094
And it's procreating
on its own
680
00:39:58,130 --> 00:40:02,632
And we know that there are
female species on this planet
that can do that.
681
00:40:02,667 --> 00:40:05,602
I think that there's
a likelihood
682
00:40:05,637 --> 00:40:08,405
That there could be
more of this creature
683
00:40:08,440 --> 00:40:10,140
Wherever it came from.
684
00:40:10,175 --> 00:40:14,577
And that being said there's
probably going to be some
plumbing issues,
685
00:40:14,613 --> 00:40:16,780
Serious ones, down the line.
686
00:40:16,815 --> 00:40:21,184
[narrator] and plumbing
issues may be the
least of the worries.
687
00:40:22,387 --> 00:40:24,521
What makes this
really terrifying
688
00:40:24,556 --> 00:40:27,424
Is the fact that you're not
out in the middle of the woods
689
00:40:27,459 --> 00:40:28,758
Or the jungle or the swamp.
690
00:40:28,794 --> 00:40:31,728
You're in your own home
and this creature
691
00:40:31,763 --> 00:40:36,566
Is quite large, it's quite
big, we don't know
if it's poisonous or not.
692
00:40:36,601 --> 00:40:38,568
So, this is a really
terrifying moment for
693
00:40:38,603 --> 00:40:42,205
Someone to experience
this in their own home.
694
00:40:42,240 --> 00:40:44,974
[narrator] though they
don't know exactly what
this thing is,
695
00:40:45,010 --> 00:40:49,112
Zul and puteri don't waste
any more time trying
to figure it out.
696
00:40:50,282 --> 00:40:55,218
They quickly and carefully put
the slimy creature into a sack
697
00:40:57,489 --> 00:40:59,823
And release it into
a nearby river.
698
00:41:00,659 --> 00:41:03,593
Because even
mysterious cryptids
699
00:41:03,628 --> 00:41:06,095
Deserve a second chance.
700
00:41:07,866 --> 00:41:12,335
Thanks for this. Now I can
never use the toilet again.
701
00:41:13,371 --> 00:41:16,239
[toilet flushing]
702
00:41:21,913 --> 00:41:25,582
[narrator] what should you do
in the event you witness
something paranormal?
703
00:41:25,617 --> 00:41:28,218
Here are some tips
to get it all on camera.
704
00:41:29,187 --> 00:41:30,420
Be brave.
705
00:41:31,590 --> 00:41:32,755
But not too brave.
706
00:41:32,791 --> 00:41:34,591
[duffy screaming]
what the hell is that?
707
00:41:34,626 --> 00:41:38,561
[narrator] hope for the best,
but prepare for the worst.
708
00:41:38,597 --> 00:41:40,497
[harper] we're getting
attacked, honey.
709
00:41:40,532 --> 00:41:41,998
[narrator] listen carefully...
710
00:41:42,033 --> 00:41:42,632
[woman calling] hey!
711
00:41:42,667 --> 00:41:44,234
[narrator] very carefully.
712
00:41:44,269 --> 00:41:45,401
[woman calling] hey!
713
00:41:45,437 --> 00:41:47,837
