Firearms are seriously illegal in National Parks.......except for Olympic National Park. They have had many interactions between mountain goats and humans, with several fatalities. Just pissed off Mountain Goats, goring people to death.

I grew up in the Appalachian mountains. I'm a Cherokee American and was taught to stalk, track, hunt, and shoot by my Cherokee grandfather. I served as a sniper for 15 years in Spec Ops units and other government organizations, and I won't spend time in those mountains without firearms, both a rifle, a handgun, and plenty of ammo, period. Stuff happens, and people disappear all the time. I plan to die of old age, thanks. 😮 Not disappear in those mountains. Happy trails, kids! 🪶🪶🤙
I've always hated it when people dismiss encounters by saying, oh you just saw a bear, or bird, or whatever is the "most likely" thing. As someone who has grown up in the country in the Ohio Valley, you learn to identify the wildlife where you live. You don't just mistake an animal for another.
My family lives on the Choctaw Reservation in Mississippi. One night my sister was driving through the Natchez Trace heading back home and while she was driving she saw a person walking along the side of the road. she said the person looked like they were wearing an old costume, dressed in old looking clothes. as she passed the person she said she looked back in the rear view mirror and when she did, there was no one there.
I'm Saponi and Catawba Native American and what I find interesting is Native People always told other race's about these stories and sites about certain areas and where met with SKEPTICISM🤔😏😵💫! As if we where trying to just scare 😮 people off our lands! Now that reality of certain situations have come to light it's (HELP) 😮🤪 we are in quicksand or we are drowning😢! What did they think we where liars like them? We tried to keep people safe but they thought we where joking about thing's that had been past down to us, but you thought it was deception😮! As far as your Sister, as you are probably aware stranger things have been seen, probably a Ancestor from the past, traveling her regular routine to take care of business! They had to tear down my great aunt's home because you could hear her shuffling feet and going about her regular life in the house and cleanse the ground! But the area is still bare and it may be forever!
So, she's driving at _night_ passes someone on the road that she can't see through her rearview mirror a moment later and you think this requires a supernatural explanation? That's a trivial every day occurrence; it's hard to see clearly in the dark and even a relatively slow moving car travels way faster than people walk.
@666vengeance This doesn't really warrant any disbelief; people walking along the side of the road at night are hard to see clearly and quickly disappear in the rear view mirror. It's just laughably foolish to think there's anything spooky about such an ordinary occurrence. If you were to tell this same story to somebody outside of a spooky campfire story context most people would respond by asking why this was noteworthy.
This man is working reallyhard watch how he daily uploads videos for us and after a week of gap he released this long video like a movie. I am really impressed..
In the early 90s, I was a wild land firefighter. On my 3rd interstate fire, something changed my relationship with other crew members. They always made it my decision to where we would settle down for the night. Years later, when drinking with my crew, the other men disclosed that nothing strange ever occurred if they let me set camp. They followed up with crazy stories about paranormal nocturnal events they had experienced. Some truly terrifying.
@@tracyyarbrough3358 Sure it does. The night of his 3rd out-of-state fire, which required camping for the night, he ended up picking the spot where they would put up for the night. When morning came without incident, the rest of the crew decided in secret he would pick a safe, or lucky spot to camp when overnight stays were required. Years later they told him why...
My father bought the book...murder on the Appalachian trail....I was in my 20's. I couldn't finish it. Scary. All of us liked hiking on the trail. It was a very thick book. One of my siblings has it now. I'm 64 now. My father always carried a pistol while hiking because of crime, drunk hikers. 🥴
People seem to think of black bears as harmless. Here's a pro tip, BEARS KILL PEOPLE! Not only grizzlies, brown, or polar bears, but ALL BEARS CAN KILL YOU. Black bears are just as capable of killing people as the other members of their species. Bears can outrun, outfight, and tear you to pieces. Yes, I know about other "things" in the mountains that can do you harm but don't forget about the known species that can harm you. Heck, even deer have been known to unalive people. So, while there are other things in the mountains that can unalive you, don't forget about the well-known critters. They live their lives in the mountains and know those places far better than any of us.
Gatlinburg was well known for people doing witch craft (the mean kind) even when I was in high school in the 90’s… also, People underestimate how insanely quiet bears are when they’re making their way through the woods. Even walking on the leaves, it’s crazy. I’ve been surprised by black bears 4 times here in the Smokies. These loud walking sounds HAVE to be something different.
@rosemadder5547 Black bears can be very silent when they want to be silent. I've had them sneak up on me before too. They only take a powder when they hear a rifle action make the metallic noise they can make if you work the action quickly. Whether it's a bolt action or lever action.
It's amazing how much expensive GEAR I find abandoned deep in the National forest. I have never had an odd encounters out there, though, I am ALWAYS well armed. - yiu can find backpacks, tents, compact stoves, high end cloths, toiletries etc.... sometimes yu can find entire camp set up. LONG abandoned.
@@macekreislahomes1690 pss, that was a joke.... though, I do know a lake that's nearly IMPOSSIBLE to get to, and I am TOLD people leave gear there, because the omb out is too rough, I went aboit 3/4 way in once and turned back when I got to 100' VERITICAL CLIFF! About 1/4 the way in, I found a CHEEP pack, it had mostly junk in it (why they left it).

On the white husky Bella Story? What state? We came across a dog just like this on the streets of Portland/Gresham Oregon one night. She glowed in the dark. After an hour or 2. The glow faded but we all got violently ill. We had taken her to the animal VCA hospital and went through a series of names she might answer to? Bella made her ears prick up. She got excited and I recieved tons of kisses. Now it's been 6 mos. No one has claimed Bella??? Maybe? Who knows?
As a descendant of several Appalachian first settlers and Native Americans in the Appalachia’s, I can assure you there are still stories and sightings being passed down about strange occurrences in the Appalachia’s. My firsthand experience is quite dark and most people will experience something disturbing in nature if they stay a day or two. It is home & I roamed the mountains alone all the time, but it is also a place of danger, so be careful.
I would be interested in hearing of your experiences if possible. Im part Cherokee and Black and live far North in Washington State. (Not Seattle) WLB covered my families close encounter of the 3rd kind in Washington State. 1993 Christmas Eve. Stay Blessed.🙌
In 1981 Randall Smith shot and murdered two hikers on the Appalachian Trail. He only served 15 yrs for the murders. He was paroled in 1996. He then shot and two more hikers on the Appalachian Trail in 2008, but luckily these two victims survived. Smith never went to trial for these two shootings because he died in jail awaiting the trial. So, point being, there has been someone who was caught for murders as well as attempted murders on the Appalachian.
I've heard many stories on your channel and hadn't considered my story worthwhile as it wasn't scary. I was hiking in Martinez canyon in February of 1979, my first child was born on February 1st my daughter. This trip was supposed to take a day and would mark my becoming a father with a family. I came upon an area where three washes met up with the main canyon. The sandy wash area was about two football fields wide and long. Sitting in the middle of the three washes the most beautiful German Shepherd I had ever seen. Beautiful healthy, shiny coat, well fed. I started calling out HELLO!! as I approached the dog and expected the owner to come out at any moment. I got to the dog and had started talking to the dog as I approached it. I gave it half of my ham& cheese sandwich and gave it water in my cupped hand. Most dogs won't drink from a person's hand sometimes even one's own dog. I spent about 10 minutes talking to the dog and sharing my food and water. I finally said goodbye to the dog and as I looked around believing the owners to be hiding. The dog and I were standing in the middle of a large wash approximately 400' x400' walking away I hadn't taken more than 3 steps when I turned back towards the dog and it was gone. I don't think it could run more than 400' and disappear from my sight in the time it took me to take 3-4 steps.
It was deff a spirit or shape shifter type of thing I hear they have to eat too in phy form. There are good spirits out there not just bad. And they can sense a good person with a good soul ♡
@elizabeth A I hope you’re right that there are good spirits that visit Earth. I just don’t understand why a good spirit would want to hang around the woods as a dog when there is likely a spot in a heaven for them. Do you have any ideas why?
@@kieranhart5776 I have no knowledge of this stuff, but I can take a guess. Maybe dog died in the woods and doesn’t want leave. Or possibly a shape shifter , you know something that disguises itself as a animal or person. Or some kind of alien portal the dog can go through.
If you're camping alone that doesn't make sense because besides Bears and wolves depending where you live there's another creature you need to watch for and it walks on 2 feet too its name is a human
@@larrog8413 you can get a hold of the bag of water for me and you can come over and get some money for me and I'll bring them over and I'll bring them to your mom's house and I'll bring them back to me when you get home from work
@@mcdonaldsbigmac3935 well, feral means "wild" or "undomesticated"....so, I would assume they are dangerous. Wouldn't you? Especially knowing how unpredictable human nature can be.
Parks and monuments are a perfect cover and also an easy way to keep people from living in areas they didn't want them and to control even the hour's people are allowed. It makes me wonder what other shit is hidden among the other parks around America.
I also strongly believe the national parks were put in place to allow whatever strange.creatures to live and hunt or there's a portal that allows for entry. I think humans sleeping at night is a perfect time to allow the supernatural to happen. Sleeping at least long hours is meant to hide the truth. Do any of us really know what happens at night while we sleep?
I never thought about it like that! I always believe that it’s more in this world than we actually see, we haven’t explored this land or water enough to know what really exist
If people found out what were really going on how many of them do you think would be going to work on a daily basis and performing daily tasks and duties that the government teams necessary for A country to thrive in survive it might be all about pandemonium and panic so I understand why the government keeps secrets it feels like it must be Some people in the government are Corrupted and just wanna actively hide things from us but some of us are doing it to protect us in our country it's a double edge sword like everything else in life
@@elamfreelance7217sounds like the ridiculous california type laws where the non-expert politicians will pass some arbitrary act "for the wildlife" meanwhile enacting crap that kills way more. Or sometimes kill humans like how they're totally not even attempting to stop fentanyl 😂
20 mins in Roger Coldwell.... My story is very similar. I live in the foothills of the Catskill Mountains in New York (which the Appalachian trail goes thru.) I've only told a handful of people about this in my lifetime. I'm 43 years old now, he watched the object and my incident happened when I was 14. I live in a rural area I have a mile-long dirt driveway. The railroad tracks that run through our County cross over my driveway about 150-ft off the main road. As I was getting home in the afternoon from school I was stepping off the school bus. As I was coming down the stairs off the bus quickly, I saw exactly what Roger Coldwell was describing! As a kid the only way that I could really describe it was like a cross between Anubis - Bigfoot - extraterrestrial and like Anubis it had a walking staff. By the time I looked down at the ground for my footing as I was coming off the bus, and I looked back up, it was gone! As I said in my lifetime, I have only spoken about this six or seven times. Before I could even turn around the buses door was shutting the bus was pulling off. I was scared more than I've ever been in my life! I walked up the County Road a little ways to the next house only a couple hundred feet away on the other side of the road. And I waited there until my mother got home from work. My mother picked me up from The neighbors about two hours later. As we were heading home down the driveway we came to the railroad tracks where ABE (Anubis Bigfoot extraterrestrial) was standing and right on the railroad tracks in the middle of the driveway what is a large wooden walking stick. I was so shocked and scared I refuse to walk that driveway for over a week. In your video, the drawing of the creature.... Well that's a pretty damn good drawing of it! It took me right back to that day, the hairs on my arms are still standing. I haven't even thought about ABE in more than 10 years!
The story about the lizard creature screaming like a woman reminds me of a time that back in high school when friends told me a story. I lived in a small town in the mountains of Idaho and most of my friends had been born there. They were always running around in the mountains, hunting or packing, day or night. They were completely comfortable out there. We would go out hunting for the weekend and just sleep next to a fire at night. One night I was in town hanging out with friends and two of the most hardcore guys came up to us all excited. They claimed they were way up in the mountains and heard a woman screaming. They stated that they had heard cougar make a noise like a woman but this was completely different, more like a woman. They thought someone might be in trouble so they cautiously headed that way. They weren't that worried because they were both carrying high powered rifles that they used for hunting elk. They were struggling through thick brush but just before they expected to see what was making the noise, one of them accidentally rolled a rock, making noise. The screaming stopped mid sound and became silent. They stood their looking at each other for a moment until a different loud roaring scream rang out and something started coming towards them through the brush. They said the roar was so loud and the crashing was so violent that they both immediately started running away from it as fast as they could. They were moving over large rocks and through heavy brush so they weren't moving very fast. What ever it was was still coming after them and roaring occasionally. Until this point we were positive they were just messing with us but we played along. What they said next made us start to take them a little more seriously. They said that they were struggling to get through the brush with their rifles and even though they hadn't communicated it, both felt like their rifles wouldn't be enough to do anything to whatever was chasing them so in a particularly thick brushy area, they both left their rifles and just scrambled as fast as they could. Shortly after the sound behind them faded to silence. They kept going until they got to the truck and then came straight to us. We were sceptical but there was no way either of them would risk damaging their beloved rifles. They then asked if we would be willing to go up there the next day to try to retrieve their rifles. They specified everyone bring the biggest guns we could and bring a couple for them. The next day we went up there and as we neared the area those two got real nervous. It took a while to locate the exact area they claimed to have dropped their rifle and found one of them. They swore the birth dropped their rifles in the same area but we couldn't find the second one. We searched around for a while and were finally able to locate the second one. It appeared to have been thrown and was somewhat hanging in a tree. We retrieved the rifle and got out of there. Both rifles were damaged from rough handling which led us to believe their story
Almost same thing happened to my friend and myself in southwest Virginia 3 years ago, but our shot gun was really messed up once we found it. The wooden part of it was ripped completely off of it and over 5-6 feet away from the rest of the gun. We wasn’t running with the riffle/ shot gun, but had leaned it up because I had gotten so tired of carrying it after 4-5 hours walking in the woods. I had a pistol and he did as well as his rifle. So I decided to leave mine and get it on the way back because we knew no humans would be in that area.but after traveling a couple more miles, we started hearing heart rattling vibrations , unbelievable sounds, screaming like nothing we’d ever heard before and we’d both grew up in the mountains and were both over 50 years old. I know it was Bigfoots and they had run us outta there right after they twisted our barrel so badly that everyone in the family agreed that the gun was destroyed and would be dangerous to attempt to try to shoot it . What else could bend the barrel of a shot gun so bad that everyone agreed that no bullet could be shot from it and nobody thought it could be fixed. I can’t imagine how strong they are but clearly it’s a unbelievable amount of power. I’ve also seen trees bigger around than a gallon of milk be twisted as if it was a wet dish towel/ wash rag, Imagine twisting a tree as thick as a gallon of milk. Believe me guys, Bigfoot’s can twist us into with one hand if they want to. We continued to hike up towards their cave, but we never took riffles again and they started interacting with us after a year or so, 2013-2022 I Really miss them. Seen one 3 times, heard them hundreds of times Southwest Virginia/ southeast Kentucky state line area
@@retrochronic44 Agreed…Mountain lions are extraordinarily smart, and if making that kind of noise was likely trying to frighten them off. They very well interrupted two mating.
@@hahajones Yes, mountain lion(s) chase animals including humans if they interact, this is caused by 2 mountain lions mating or a territorial mountain lion, or a mountain lion defending it's cubs.
I’ve seen some weird shit, and it’s always comical to me that even people who grow up on the mountain or are local to where said incidents happen, who spend more time in the area than possible by another human being, start by saying look, I know the difference between a mr lion,elk bear,etc because we hunt them all the time and basically have almost an intimate relationship with them. That people chime in and add exactly what they said it’s not. Cause they heard it once on Tv and the description sounded like what he specifically said it wasn’t. Lotta open and wooded country in this land. When you what a 280lb whitetail buck with a huge rack disappear into what seems like thin air with 15 people around for the 50th time. Only then will it register how fast and easy an intelligent creature with the same senses could evade discovery almost indefinitely, especially if they’re smart enough to not leave remains of their dead and or there is very few of them. So much area in this country that’s hardly ever been touched my man!!
I grew up in the Appalachian Mountains, in North Carolina's Watauga County. The Trail has always had a reputation of odd things happening to those who hike some parts of its length. To give you an idea of how much area residents believe in being super cautious, I honestly can't remember a single person I know who decided to hike even a portion of the Trail even though we all grew up right next to it...
@@secretwatcher9922 yes. There were always stories that a lot of us kids had to share with each other about things we saw in the forests we lived in. Some of the old people would tell us stories about things they'd seen, or that their siblings or relatives had experienced just in the woods we lived in.
In Jan when I arrived in Dallas, TX I woke up looking at the sky. Upon looking I saw a strange light hovering in the sky, not moving but just sitting still. I kept looking around comparing light poles, planes, and other things to it..but it never moved and there was no pole connected to it. I got my then fiancé's attention and told him to look in that direction. As he looked the light began to slowly glide behind a cloud, and as we waited for it to reappear it never did. Once that cloud drifted on the lighg was nowhere to be seen. I believe it was a UFO or something not of thos dimension.
Great video. After watching all of Mr Ballen’s videos, I have searched for someone who tells the story rather than “reading” it. Or at least doesn’t sound like their reading it. I subbed to you!! ❤
Foreal i fell like thies stories are more interesting and its not like listing to a book , would recommend this over ballen , personally when i was younger meand my 2 sisters seen ufos and hes not afraid or thinks peoples stories are made up i also have a pic i took of 20 lights in 1 line and they disappeared one by one i took 3 picks they were all gone the 3rd
Haha... didn't he just...one minute the dog man was right on his heels, the next he had the time to light a huge fire and run into his tent to grab his gun !...
Was thinking the very same thing. It was tearing ass after him then it just slowed to a Michael Myers stroll. Despite my bullshit meter going off right and left I still enjoy the stories.
I hiked the 100 mile wilderness in ME while in college in 1999 and while camped out one night at a lean to we heard the loudest high pitched s reams ive ever imagined. It seemed to come from everywhere at onvmce and was very unnerving. The rest of the hike we kept seeing things darting from tree to tree flanking us on both sides always at least 50 yards away...needless to say i kept my pistol in my hsnd all day and night until we got to the car...i pretty much forgot about those screams for 20 years until watching "Finding Bigfoot" a few years ago and there was a recording that made my hair stand on end...it was exactly the screaming we heard that night and i am convinced that it was a Sasquatch
I had a similar experience several years ago right here at home while laying in bed at around 1:30-2:00 am. I live 1mi. East of Pacific Beach,WA. Here in Grays Harbor County. I was awake and I heard a loud sound that I took for a bird call. I cannot accurately imitate the sound. It happened 3xs sussestion. I forgot to ask my landlord if he heard it. Well last year while watching a Show about the Native people in Alaska who asked a group of guys to investigate their old townsite I think was named Portlock. Anyway they had a Bigfoot Researcher come up from northern California he had a number of recordings he played and one of them was the same sound that I heard. Not 10 miles from here at an old homestead over looking the ghost forrest in Copalis Beach I found a lard turd beside a tree, that was I guess 4" in dia. And 13" long. I still cannot figure out what animal would have left it there. There have been sitings of large hairy creatures in this area. About a year before I heard that sound outside my window I saw, one night, a redish orange round light or object about 10 ft. Outside my open window. It just kinda liked hovered there for a few minutes. I thought I was just seeing a red light from a tower not far away but as I thought about it I realized that light blinks and I cannot see it from my window. That also happened late at night. I've never told anyone this before. I have reason to believe that the things I've seen and heard going back to 1974-75 are of paranormal origin. I believe in Jesus Christ and creation so naturally I believe also in the spiritual realms and the entities that work in those realms and in our physical realm. Just thought you might find this interesting.
@gamlinos yes, I've lived in the woods Mt whole life and have had semi tame foxes at different times and they're screaming is unnerving but this was something on another level
Love it. Listened to it for the whole run. Really appreciate these long ones. Makes for a very mysterious and entertaining night of stories and legends.
Its good. But even if you research it, and discover it, the government just ignores it, or intimidates people into silence, but yes, very entertaining ..and probably all true.
@@SuperOmnicronsj44 Sure most of its true. There are many very mysterious, ominous and downright spooky things that happen in this world. I’ve seen some of it. And ever since have never gotten over it. Hence why I’m entertained by things that I think of a lot and frighten or spook most others. And absolutely the government and others cover it up. Sometimes they’re the reason for the mystery in the first place or know of the reason, and sometimes the reasons are so mind blowing and reality altering, they know to keep the truth hidden away deep, that way society doesn’t lose its marbles.
That’s one of the many reasons I feel she’s still talked about to this day, many feel she was done very wrong and how sad they killed her sister in law who never did anything wrong either. It was mixture of a very intelligent woman who knew about all the organic healing that made her different and then they didn’t know exactly why there were many childhood deaths back then but we understand so much now. So it’s just hard to think that obviously a mother in so much grief plus there’s no telling what someone would say but it’s as if they (remember this was family members too) all just dismissed the tremendous good she had done all her life for any my came to her for help. I think that’s a big reason why it lives on because it’s all very sad, tragic and it’s a good cautionary tell about reacting without thinking and how you can’t be personally involved in justice, it ends up doing more unnecessary damage. So grateful that the justice system did come along because people don’t think just how horrible it truly is without it. P.S. Please forgive all grammatical errors, I have MS which causes many side effects but no pity please. I’m blessed plus I just wanted to comment on your thoughts, something I rarely do because of the sight issues and my thoughts seem to run together or I don’t explain my thoughts as well anymore.

All these documented events reminded me of a camping and fishing trip back in July 12 of 2001 between the India and Bangladesh border. The five of us left from Shillong a capital of Meghalaya( A state of the North-Eastern part of India) early at dawn and reached the isolated fishing spot which is a border between India and Bangladesh late in the afternoon because we had to leave our vehicle behind and hike through dense jungle for three hours to reach the spot. Upon reaching there we unpack and set our lures then tied our fishing rods to sticks impaled to the ground, then me and my friend who is the most senior among us began cooking and preparing food for the night while the other three set up the big camping tent, the whole evening till night time we didn't catch anything so we began having dinner along with some whisky in order to calm us down and relax our muscles since it was a tedious trip. It was around 01:30AM while we were sharing jokes and stories and laughing among us that we heard branches high up on the trees crackling and breaking, most of us thought it was big bats or monkeys since they are very common there, then we heard the breaking and crackling sound traveling from trees to trees around us like it was circling us and then it abruptly stop, we pondered for sometime and then continued with our talks, that's when the noises from high up the trees began again, at that time the moon was very low and shining from behind the trees facing the front of our tent, we waited for the noise to travel to that direction so that we can see the silhouette of anything that is causing all the noise and as the noise traveled to the direction we wanted we were shock to see the silhouette of of a tall humanoid creature about 8 or 9 feet hopping from branches to branches of the trees in front of us, it was tall but very thin with very long arms and the head resembles a mango with its chin being very elongated, luckily one of our friend who came along who is somewhat like a geek and came prepared with everything took out a very big powerful halogen searchlight from his camping backpack and shone on the creature and it was at that time that we could see the full profile of the creature. It had a muddy brown skin color, a narrow shoulder with long arms with no fats at all but all lean and long muscles and its legs too had the same physical features like its arms, its head is long with small eyes very far from one another, a small nose and a small mouth which looks out of place because it had a very long chin. While it was facing away from us trying to get away from the powerful beam of the searchlight into the forest we could see some traces of thin hair on the back of its head and its armpits were as black as charcoal. Even though the creature had fled away from us by hopping away from trees to trees farther away until we couldn't see it anymore we we're awake the whole night keeping vigil till morning. It was until the sun came up that we all went into our tent and dozed off then wake up till late afternoon and the moment we woke up we pack our gears and headed for our vehicle not wanting to spend another night on that jungle but want to be in the safety and security of our homes back in civilization. We intended to spend a week there but ended up spending only a night and having the fright of our lives. Till today we never talked about that night and we were never able to figure out in our heads what the creature we witnessed was or where it came from.
That is a very creepy encounter. Have there been any other reports from people in the same area seeing it too? I can understand why you all left the next day, I would have done the same. Thank you for sharing your experience.
@@indisishir People from that border-area use to come to the city to buy necessities, few of them are related from my mother's side, I asked one relative about the location where we fished that night, he replied that villagers never go to that particular area especially during night time because they always have the sensation that something is watching them, even during daytime most of them have the feeling of not being safe or sometime have the feeling of an extra presence.
Just found your channel for the first time yesterday and I'm obsessed!! You're so talented at storytelling, I couldn't wait to leave work today to carry on watching!
Bethany’s story broke my heart when her dog went missing. Mine is 13 and has been on 3 legs for 7 so I know she’s getting close to end of life, but to just lose her pup doing what they loved with such a strange occurrence, must be devastating. I hope the two get reunited soon, keep searching for that portal!
If she is telling the truth and it happened to me, I'd have walked into town - gotten the biggest stock of holy water & firearms possible and introduce those beings to the John Wick cinematic universe 😅 Story truly broke my heart too but honestly confused me how Bella was left - no terror could make me leave my bunnies in a dangerous spot, they're my universe.
The part of the story that sends red flags for me is that she left the first time without Bella then suddenly realized she was not with her. Our dog is a beloved part of our family like one of our kids. I dont care where i was or what was happening, no way would i would be leaving without one of my kids or my dog. I call B.S.
The flying bat man creature is called an Aswan in the Philippines. I saw the silhouette of one of them standing beside me one time when I got up to pee. I had whitewashed the concrete wall around the yard, and I was drinking some beer. It's silhouette was standing next to me on the shadow on the wall. I thought someone was playing a joke on me, I said Im not scared of you Aswang you don't scare me. When I turned around there was No one there. These creatures are very common in the Philippines. They are real.
I’m a newbie to UA-cam and I love documentaries and things of the sort… You are in many videos and I see why! You are awesome when explaining the stories and yet you don’t bore me! I am enjoying learning from your doc’s and am excited for the future videos as well! Thanks
I used to live in central western Queensland in Australia & have heard these sounds twice in the last 10 years. I also ran into another lady in the area that heard one lot of the sounds the same day as my mum & I. So they don't only happen in Yellowstone.
There's Bigfoot and dogmen and the Dogmen hunt the Bigfoot. Few species of bigfoot the Windigo which are 3 toed, the red haired, and the darker more doscile friendlier and may include blonde.
@@Joebob-Asilenthunter You know, I’m 65 and grew up in the states and I think we all live in the Matrix, so to speak, we are fed chosen BS by the powers that be. They wouldn’t want the peasants to get too smart. But, I have thought a lot about these reports from people about these strange creatures that certainly are not the norm and trying to wrap my head around it and figure out what the heck? Now, stay with me here. Even in the scriptures, beastiality (man having sex with animals is strictly forbidden)! Way back then, God had it put on record. Now, why did that have to happen? I think man has done this, this evil thing forbidden by God, and I think that animals can cross-breed and now you can have a hybrid of man, pig, goat, wolf, whatever. And, over time these creatures survived in the deep dark wilderness, and there is still lots of that out there, for this is a huge world. And, then there’s the Nephilim. Do they still exist? These fallen angels who mated with the daughters of men. The flood happened, but the Nephilim were supernatural beings and angels and demons exist people, just as sure as good and evil exists. Best make sure you know the Master, the one who redeemed you on that cross. Next time He returns, and I think it will be in my lifetime because almost all the biblical prophecies have been fulfilled, to the letter, people-He won’t be carrying a cross, He will be carrying a sword and He will be the Great Equalizer. Not talking religion here, folks, just the Savior. He offers this gift free to all who will just take it, because He loves you that much, always has, always will. You scoffers can just scoff if you want-this grandma knows what she’s talking about. It’s not a myth, it’s not a fable, I don’t care what that professor told you, He is real, always was and always will be. He is the Great I Am. Have a good day and take care, everyone!❤
@@sandraressel2262I am just now able to wrap my head around these being here on earth. I am a believer of our Lord. But why are most sightings noted now? It’s scary but if I see one ever I would call out to Jesus for help.
Me too - I couldn’t cope if that happened to me- I was wondering if she could leave a gift for them by portal like a big geode or something energetic and generous and maybe they would swap her back if she left a letter with it.. probably years ago now but think I might of suggested that an exchange could maybe be possible I don’t know- stuff of nightmares and definitely put me off taking my dogs in woods on my own … bless them both…
I would like to say this to you Werewolves/Dogmen exist… I have seen one with my own eyes And I’ve never wet myself before Out of fear but I did this time ALWAYS WATCH YOUR BACK IN THE WOODS…NEVER GO WITHOUT PROTECTION
@Eric Stevens Yeah I always bring condom’s with me to the woods as well. You can never have enough protection. P.a werewolves are men that transform into wolves on full moons and such. I doubt they exist but dogmen do. They are always dogs, not men.

Alot of this could be explained by Fae. Traditionally, they were known to be absolutely horrifying creatures who hold immense magickal power. Particularly with controlling animals, shapeshifting, and creating strange noises and "bells", and making people disappear. They were most commonly mentioned in ancient Ireland (the Druids worked closely with them), but they exist worldwide. They're nature spirits, and can very from friendly and curious, to bloodthirsty and immensely dark. They have also been known for varying alot in physical appearance. Dark Fae are known to have black eyes and often possess greyish skin or fangs. Fae are found almost exclusively in nature, so it makes sense why all of this would be happening in remote areas. The best course of action is to leave areas that have fae alone, and avoid messing with any strange objects you see.
I’m no expert on this subject but I think the Fae have one major weakness: IRON. Especially iron or steel objects that are twisted with sharp points and edges. 😊
You deserve so many more views and subs! Very high quality and informative video, plus you explain everything well and are clearly knowledgeable. Also amazed at the length of this video! The effort you put in is evident. Keep going!
Bethany said she looked everywhere for Bella but also said she refuses to go back to the spot where she last saw…? Maybe don’t watch Lord of the rings on drugs.
I've experienced and seen some weird thing's in the woods that I can't explain. Some areas in national park's have never had human contact, so we really don't know what is out there. That's why I have a "what if" mindset.
I’m glad you started adding your appearance to the awesome narrative voice that you so definitely have. I have been a loyal listener to your work and it’s good to get a glimpse at the individual behind the masterpieces that I am so devoted to. I know you are reading the stories that are sent to you but you have a very calming presentation that is your voice. I would not be far removed from saying you could definitely make a great career reading transcripts of even longer encounters or even nonfiction books. You have a natural talent and nobody wants to hear that stupid commercial grade artificial voice a lot of UA-camrs use. Excellent work mate !!!
I'm not surprised that there's some strange energies in the parks. In my early 20s, me and 8 or so friends heard footsteps surrounding us when we were partying near a dry creek in California. Happened on 4 different occasions. I was a security guard at the time, and shined my 1 million candle power spotlight, and saw nothing. The footsteps definitely sounded human, and were heard on both sides of us simultaneously. There was only 1 way in and out, and was probably a mile from the nearest house. We had campfires, and were making all kinds of racket. Not many animals would come up, with that in mind. At the time, I kinda figured it was an old native burial ground. I'd love to see someone in the Murrieta area do a video of that place at night lol
It could have been an old native burial ground could have been bigfoot. Sometimes they are trying to protect their own family and they understand how dangerous human beings can be to each other and to wildlife and especially things they don't understand. If you were making noise and racket partying and maybe they were trying to sleep and their children were trying to sleep so they were trying to scare you and make you leave they often Give warning signs1st because they don't want to harm anybody they just want you to leave
I'm so glad to have found your channel! You do an incredible job telling stories and tying history in when possible. I may in fact be reaching out to you to share my experiences which are many but most specifically I have been in three septic shock comas and each time I experienced a near-death experience but ultimately chose to remain. That is fine no means the least of what I have experienced but I think is the easiest to Express.

On the first story, I believe what the rangers witnessed is 100% authentic because my father and I came across something similar to what the rangers had described when we went squirrel hunting up north in WI couple yrs ago. After my experienced, I was curious to find what this creature could be so I started doing some research and turns out these cryptic creatures(though not many) exist throughout all parts of the world.
@@chrisreynoldsartwork in all honesty, if someone is that scared, I don’t think the first thought it to pull out a phone…people get struck in awe or freeze up in serious situations/ life threatening….
Just because she wasn’t smiling in the picture doesn’t mean anything other than it was once thought of as a very serious thing to do. Many even couldn’t hold a smile that long either. It took quite a bit of time to have a picture show up on film. Not that these people were angry, it was the norm of that time to hold still and not smile.
So true. Many don’t realize how different times were throughout history. It wasn’t common see people smile at all in early photographs and there were belief’s if you continuously went around smiling a lot or especially laughing too much other’s thought you might or were mentally unstable. Even today there’s many different ethic background’s and you can see the obvious difference between everyone, how there’s so many different “normal” ways of behavior.
@@marshallgrusovnik4957 that’s really neat. I didn’t know that could be done. I never really got to much into photography when I was younger. Thank you for the reply🙏🏼
Wisdom is to avoid hiking and avoid camping overnight in or near the woods. Being inside a fabric tent offers zero protection, especially being unarmed, and asleep. Prayer is foremost in anything you do.
I've only gotten lost one time in my life at age 8 while Turkey hunting. But my father and uncle as all war veterans, extreme woodsman and hunters. They taught us how to use and made sure we had a compass when we were just 5 and 6 years of age. Its absolutely paramount that you learn this as a basic safety measure. But also how to traverse the wild when you take a compass reading. In the military as a disabled Infantry rifleman and machine gunner. We would put every other tree we pass from our azimuth to the opposite shoulder. It will help keep you from traveling in circles. Humans often dont recognize they subconsciously walk in very large circles.
Your story narrative is unmatched my friend, ur awesome 😎. Good luck with your channel and keep up with this series because eventually everyone will know the truth about our national parks and demand answers! Prayers for everyone involved in these horror, weird and missing stories. ❤️
@@kokeallen3192 Exactly -- it's just the same style of vivid storytelling, using multiple fast cuts in editing, and the narrator being lively with the facial expressions and using his hands a lot.
missing 411 has always fascinated me. the most interesting "out there" theory is that many national parks/forests are entrances to "D.U.M.B.s" and/or alien harvesting/hybrid genetic experiments supposedly "ok"ed by the "greada treaty" but could also easily be explained by the "more mundane" explanation of simple human trafficking. somethings clearly going on, because 600,000+ people go missing ... EVERY YEAR.
@@liberty8424 this is the most bullshit statement with exactly zero evidence I've ever seen in my life. a five second search for how many people go missing in the united states annually totally debunks it.
I got caught in a pocket dimension portal thing in a state park in the Appalachian mountains in southern wv I was with a friend picking up rocks and we was beside the trail and as we was picking up these rocks it’s like the trail disappeared and every way we went it was to thick to get through except it we went deeper in the woods finally I convinced my friend if we drop the rocks we would get out of there so we did and sure enough we found the trail right away and got right out of there also their more to this story just to much to type but this main part of it but I thought we was going to turn into missing 411
@@maggipetty7047 the area we was in to my knowledge has granite limestone slate sandstone in the ground and was also near a body of water I know that’s one of his points too also had a time anomaly happen which is another thing with people who where found that was reported missing he’s wrote about those
Bethany’s story is frightening and heartbreaking 💔. Poor Bella. I can’t imagine, I’d be destroyed. And the absolute fear Bethany must have felt is palpable. She sounds very credible imo. God bless her. I don’t know what we’re dealing with, but something is interacting with the human race and it manifests in a lot of different ways. 🙀🙈🙏
My family is from Norway and lived on a farm that was the last home on the end of a windy road at the top of a small mountain. They were surrounded by a thick forest. My grandmother used to tell her kids stories about a man named Gustava who lived in the trees and would get them if they wandered away from the house. I suspect many of the stores were created by parents in the wilderness to keep the children close to home!!!
I miss these long episodes. I love all of the WLB classic long play lists. I wasn't expecting to get anymore long episodes like this and I'm so happy to see it! Thanks man! 👍👍😊

We've had this happen to me, my mom, stepfather, cousin and my 2 kids. Whatever it is it will mimic our voices and once I saw this 3 dimensional shadow person with no discernible features coming out of my mom's bedroom she used as a large closet. So many other incidents that we all experienced and we have videos of it.
Would you share that video with me. I would love to see what you have ..prof isn't even prof nowadays. Which is a same so many people have prof but there are those that will say it isn't so .even being hit in there faces with it...this world 🌎 is wacko ...but anyway please share if you will
There's a lot of footage of "shadow people" floating around on the internet. Theres one of a man being violently dragged down a hallway by one on security footage by his ankle. They're also a recurring hallucination for a lot of people with "mental" disorders which involve visual hallucinations. I'd argue they're residents of the unseen spiritual plane where we go after death, but have become embodiments of negativity for whatever their reason. They feed off others negativity. Fear, stress, anxiety, etc. That's why in homes with hauntings the activity doesn't pick up until the entire family is terrified and fighting among themselves. They're weak to a strong mind and soul with conviction. They've already become perpetually dark. We haven't been forced to accept that fate yet. We have a chance to die with no regrets or worries or hatred in our hearts. They envy us. If they're bothering you it's because they want to instill negative vibes in your home to feed off of. Stand your ground and know that the Most High has your back when all is said and done. A man of God need not question or worry, for as detailed and perfectly constructed as the universe is down to an atomic level, so is the course of fate for the world. Even if the whole world were to die this instant we'd end up okay. Inshallah. 🙏
i wonder if i have those things fucking around then when mom was around i could here her voice and would come to her and she be sleep or absorbed in the TV and haddent sied anything for hours but when atualy calling me i wouldent here shit.
About 4 years ago I was in my backyard at night smoking a cigarette when I heard something walking up the woodchip path in my backyard that’s all forest. When this thing eventually stopped I couldn’t make it any features but till this day I’ll never forget how tall this thing was, not just that but also it’s red eyes that seemed to be glowing
Im so glad this is being talked about more and more! People think there are ancient civilizations within the rock, petrified giant beings/trees/etc, aliens, the frequency there is different but in a good way.
Me and some friends used to hang out on a dirt road that goes up and around a lake in the next town over from where we lived. In the woods we found a large rock formation that resembles a sleeping dragon. While checking out we noticed what we could only describe as the slow beating of a large heart. That's when we noticed that it looked like it was breathing, very slowly. Several days later we went back because it was so cool only to find the whole area was fenced off with a chain link fence posted with official no trespassing signs.
Thank you for the many stories in one video! 🙂 The most amazing story for me is the one with the portal - that may throw some light on missing 411. Greetings from Germany Christian 🙂
I wish American government will just tell us the truth about these state parks. A bunch of people go missing mysteriously in these parks every year. They don't even keep a record of it unless people push for certain cases
Exactly! The government knows way more of what is really going on! What are they hiding? The American public has the right to know!!!! If the American public knew the truth, the government will lose the money it makes off of these national parks. However, it is not just about the money. Something sinister is happening. What is really going on? Why are people disappearing & are never found?
My brother is the most honest, no embellishment in his character or storytelling. So when I asked him, if he's ever seen anything unexplainable while hunting (we big deer hunter family) and he told me he saw a Dogman. I believe him, 100%. Made clear Not wolfman or werewolf u see in movies. Had a body like a cross between a NFL wide receiver and Belgian malnoise . I said what u mean? It was on 2 legs, tall and skinny with structure of human but, it's head, ears, short body fur, very defined muscles and tail of A (dog) Belgian mal in appearance at glance he said. Side note he mentioned multiple times long, thick Tail like a cheetah With straight hair thaot gradually got longer towards tip. My brother has never told a sole that story. And made me promise not say it was him if I repeated his experience to anyone.
The Dogman sightings are happening over a lot of North America. Not only in national parks but in rural areas as well. I know of a few places that have several sightings. A few areas in Wisconsin, the upper peninsula of Michigan, as well as Minnesota. There are accounts in the southwest of the United States as well, Arizona, New Mexico, Utah, and Colorado as well.
I cannot imagine running into one of these creatures that has me using my fire as a barrier towards them as they circle my site. Truly so scary Even the description of their eyes.. so creepy
It's no joke. I ran into something that was not a Bear or a Moose, in the backwoods of Maine. Bears and Moose are the "biggest" animals in that state. Whatever it was, it was big enough to throw massive boulders into the River. Boulders I wouldn't even be able to lift, let alone throw. And when it vocalized itself, it sounded like it was 9 foot tall and 600 pounds, easy. It scared the absolute shit out of me, and 2 other friends. I haven't gone back to that spot since. And it's been closed to the public got the last 14 years. My BFF used to camp there ever since he was a little kid, and he even told me to be very careful because weird shit happens out there, and it's literally in the middle of nowhere. I didn't pay that any mind really, I just thought he was fucking with me. He definitely was not.
I was 23 at the time, I'm 37 now, and I still get the jeebies whenever I think about what happened that night. And of course to top it all off, around 3am about 3 hours after the encounter, everyone was passed out, except for me. I heard this blood curdling scream, which sounded like a woman screaming bloody murder. Idk, that was pretty much the cherry on top of the whole incident. Idk what it was that screamed, whether it was a woman, or am owl, but it just made the fear and anxiety worse.
I was attacked by one of those bat creatures driving on some back roads in Genessee County in Michigan on Clark rd between metamora and Lapeer when I was 17. It dive bombed my van and almost blew me off the road. It was a humanoid bat thebzize of a short man but with a large wing span. I got a clear look at it in my high beams. It made a sideways pass right in front of me and I locked eyes with it. It was exactly the way that one you just described looked except in my highbeams I got a good look at its eyes. Those irises were crystal blue.
Don't ever think we don't appreciate the effort you put into your videos because we do, thank you very for doing this, you're taking a lot of people out of this crazy stressful world we live in and dropping us off into the world of WHAT LURKS BENEATH so we can relax and foget about our daily troubles and emerge us all into the dark and mysterious realm of cryptid terror lol, thanks Zack keep up the great work and take care brother
Just know... If you ever hear the whooping sounds ,that means they are close so stay in the light stay with friends family be packing an never be alone.. but just know they throw rocks whatever you hey are.
@@ngsjjjjjjjj you got all of that correct I've dealt with it all plus a lot more almost all of my life well somewhere between 8 and 10 and now 55 and instead of throwing rocks at camp they throw rocks at my house and Bink pebbles off my windows and guess what that happened 20 minutes ago if that says anything about how just how much fun it's been for the past 45 years
Give me the cement jungle and bright city lights. You all crazy. Get in your big black truck, put that pedal to the medal and go home, lock the door, get under your blanket with a bottle of Jim Beam and find another hobby
The lizard was a raptor that escaped Hollywood...just kidding...I do believe that there are things in our national parks that we DONT want to see, especially at night!!!
Great content! Can never get enough of this type of content. I'd love if you'd put up chapter/clip markers so I can find specific stories and reports easier! Thank you+
Bethany's story was TERRIFYING and tragic. Should definitely be told on film as a short, compilation like V/H/S or added into a longer storyline. Wow, thank you for sharing and scaring the crap out of me. 🙏🏼
@oldkingcrow777 yeah it's just all the plants dude, that's why you can pay for top genetics and then just plant them and forget right? Oh wait you can't? It actually takes a lot of work to grow properly? Imagine that... 😑
Yep, I'd absolutely believe it. Even if •05% of the stories are true there is something super messed up happening. I don't reckon the powers that be give the rest of us much credit for our ability to cope with high strangeness, fearing folk will loose their shit. Bravo WLB 👏 Thank you
Yes exactly. I say the same thing all the time, even if less than 1% of these stories are true, it lends credence to high level cover up by our governments about tons of strange things that go bump in the night. Don't go out in the woods unarmed, the animals are the least of our worries out there
@@funny1226 very few things just come up out of nowhere. Almost always it’s rooted in semi truth. I’ve spent the majority of my life in the woods and I’ve only had a couple unexplainable encounters. I’ll never forget them though, they kinda changed my perception of the world
Omg ur so blessed and made for telling stories. U put emphasis where they should be. Luv listening to u. Don't know if these stories r true however u make them believable.
@@Hyst3ricalCha0syes but in awful resolution. It's a real question and a real problem, my smartphone is more performant than most pro level cameras from 10 years ago. Logically we should have high quality videos or many videos from different angles from paranormal phenomena. I am not denying that many rangers have experienced unexplained phenomena. People should always be taken seriously and with respect. But that shouldn't stop us asking questions.
Bethany isn’t crazy. What she experienced was a botched abduction. They tried to abduct her, but because of Bethany’s and Bella’s love for each other Bella was able to break her out of her hypnosis long enough for the hypnosis to break. They took Bella to try and understand how she was able to break her owner/friend out of their hypnosis. The beings that took Bella don’t understand the love that we and creatures of this planet are able to experience. Unfortunately Bethany may never see Bella again.
Warrior of Love ❤️ I believe you figured that one out! The dog barked...next thing she realized, she couldn't find her dog... But, she did remember being told by that character, We're keeping the dog.... I figured it was an abduction, too... Just couldn't figure out why they let her go and kept the dog! I think you got it😉❤️
I listened to your stories tonight for the first time,. Let's just say that you're now one of my favourites. I've listened to many but not everyone can tell a good story and keep my concentration. Thanks from Australia.
bro, I look forward to the daily uploads and the sources you have with the stories are great. your voice works well, I get so absorbed into the narration. makes it easy to chill and lose a few hours. even better when on your day off work and you haven't gotta do shit.😂🤣🙏👍🇬🇧🇬🇧
A)They studied her and were going to keep her but her love and Bela's love for each other somehow brought her back and Bela communicated "take me instead of her" knowing her husband needed her. Bella saved Bethany with her undying love which beings had to respect and honor and probably admired with surprised astonishment. Wanting that loving , loyal dog for themselves. Noting how Bella stood steadfastly by awaiting and willing Bethany's return. Beautiful , beautiful, Bella... B) The bond of their undying love for eachother and Bethany's will and longing to stay in touch with Bella enable beings into her consciousness and allow communication and manipulation of her dreams.
Dating back decades to my first visit to Yellowstone, I've always felt embraced while in the area. However, there are time lapses in my memory during each visit. It was on my first visit as a child, that my large family, pulled a "home alone" moment, leaving me behind for hours, before realizing they left me behind. They returned and I was where they thought I would be. I was the second to youngest out of 8 children. 6 of which were on the trip, I was the loner in the family, often spending more time off up in a tree, than on the ground.
Highly doubt that happened. Also highly doubt you have lapses in memory only at Yellowstone. Sounds like you might have early warning signs of dementia
My first husband grew up near Yosemite. His father and grandfather had worked there. And the kids all spent lots of time there. I hated going to visit there. It just made made stomach do flip flops and I was anxious and sick to my stomach most of the time we were there. All his siblings joke casually about missing time. Or being forgotten about and left alone. (Seems to happen a lot in these places) I found It weird but am also not from a big family nor did I grow up in environment where people had hours of free time to wander. Their joking reminded me of a Simpsons episode based on The Prisoner where Marge says "it's lovely once you get used to the druggings" Fast forward years, my husband went missing. He turned up dead in the park. Ruled a suicide. But I can't shake the thought that he was lured back there by something unresolved from those missing times as a kid. Not saying it's paranormal. Humans are plenty monstrous enough. Just saying I am more indoorsy for a reason.
If you hike overnight in ANY wilderness and you dont carry a firearm your just asking to become something or someone's dinner
Exactly what I said Lol
Agree 💯!! Especially if there's NOBODY AROUND, JUST YOU!! THANKS!!

I grew up in the Appalachian mountains. I'm a Cherokee American and was taught to stalk, track, hunt, and shoot by my Cherokee grandfather.
I served as a sniper for 15 years in Spec Ops units and other government organizations, and I won't spend time in those mountains without firearms, both a rifle, a handgun, and plenty of ammo, period.

I've always hated it when people dismiss encounters by saying, oh you just saw a bear, or bird, or whatever is the "most likely" thing. As someone who has grown up in the country in the Ohio Valley, you learn to identify the wildlife where you live. You don't just mistake an animal for another.
My family lives on the Choctaw Reservation in Mississippi. One night my sister was driving through the Natchez Trace heading back home and while she was driving she saw a person walking along the side of the road. she said the person looked like they were wearing an old costume, dressed in old looking clothes. as she passed the person she said she looked back in the rear view mirror and when she did, there was no one there.
I'm Saponi and Catawba Native American and what I find interesting is Native People always told other race's about these stories and sites about certain areas and where met with SKEPTICISM🤔😏😵💫!
As if we where trying to just scare 😮 people off our lands!
Now that reality of certain situations have come to light it's (HELP) 😮🤪 we are in quicksand or we are drowning😢!
What did they think we where liars like them?
We tried to keep people safe but they thought we where joking about thing's that had been past down to us, but you thought it was deception😮!
As far as your Sister, as you are probably aware stranger things have been seen, probably a Ancestor from the past, traveling her regular routine to take care of business!
They had to tear down my great aunt's home because you could hear her shuffling feet and going about her regular life in the house and cleanse the ground!
But the area is still bare and it may be forever!
So, she's driving at _night_ passes someone on the road that she can't see through her rearview mirror a moment later and you think this requires a supernatural explanation?
That's a trivial every day occurrence; it's hard to see clearly in the dark and even a relatively slow moving car travels way faster than people walk.
@666vengeance This doesn't really warrant any disbelief; people walking along the side of the road at night are hard to see clearly and quickly disappear in the rear view mirror.
It's just laughably foolish to think there's anything spooky about such an ordinary occurrence.
If you were to tell this same story to somebody outside of a spooky campfire story context most people would respond by asking why this was noteworthy.

In the early 90s, I was a wild land firefighter. On my 3rd interstate fire, something changed my relationship with other crew members. They always made it my decision to where we would settle down for the night. Years later, when drinking with my crew, the other men disclosed that nothing strange ever occurred if they let me set camp. They followed up with crazy stories about paranormal nocturnal events they had experienced. Some truly terrifying.
And you didn't tell any of them
Not a thing about your story made sense
Oh please elaborate..
1:32:31 could be a reference to your story
@@tracyyarbrough3358 Sure it does. The night of his 3rd out-of-state fire, which required camping for the night, he ended up picking the spot where they would put up for the night. When morning came without incident, the rest of the crew decided in secret he would pick a safe, or lucky spot to camp when overnight stays were required. Years later they told him why...
My father bought the book...murder on the Appalachian trail....I was in my 20's. I couldn't finish it. Scary. All of us liked hiking on the trail. It was a very thick book. One of my siblings has it now. I'm 64 now. My father always carried a pistol while hiking because of crime, drunk hikers. 🥴

People seem to think of black bears as harmless. Here's a pro tip, BEARS KILL PEOPLE!
Not only grizzlies, brown, or polar bears, but ALL BEARS CAN KILL YOU.
Black bears are just as capable of killing people as the other members of their species. Bears can outrun, outfight, and tear you to pieces.
Yes, I know about other "things" in the mountains that can do you harm but don't forget about the known species that can harm you.
Heck, even deer have been known to unalive people. So, while there are other things in the mountains that can unalive you, don't forget about the well-known critters. They live their lives in the mountains and know those places far better than any of us.

Gatlinburg was well known for people doing witch craft (the mean kind) even when I was in high school in the 90’s… also, People underestimate how insanely quiet bears are when they’re making their way through the woods. Even walking on the leaves, it’s crazy. I’ve been surprised by black bears 4 times here in the Smokies. These loud walking sounds HAVE to be something different.
Witch craft is not good, there arent White witches or white witchcraft. Its all CORRUPTED and part of a FALLEN world.

I've been there and it's pretty didn't feel anything weird or whatever when I went
There is no witchcraft of the good kind.
@rosemadder5547 Black bears can be very silent when they want to be silent.
I've had them sneak up on me before too. They only take a powder when they hear a rifle action make the metallic noise they can make if you work the action quickly. Whether it's a bolt action or lever action.
A wise man once told me “The best way to hide something is to put it in plain sight”

Damn right think about that statement a minute people. Look around you explore your surroundings.
but if something is hidden then its not in plain sight because you don't see it so how is it in plain sight if it can't be seen?
It's amazing how much expensive GEAR I find abandoned deep in the National forest.

On the white husky Bella Story? What state? We came across a dog just like this on the streets of Portland/Gresham Oregon one night. She glowed in the dark. After an hour or 2. The glow faded but we all got violently ill. We had taken her to the animal VCA hospital and went through a series of names she might answer to? Bella made her ears prick up. She got excited and I recieved tons of kisses. Now it's been 6 mos. No one has claimed Bella??? Maybe? Who knows?
Wow! That would be fantastic if it was the lady's Bella!! Is there a way you can contact this creator to share this info?
any updates?
As a descendant of several Appalachian first settlers and Native Americans in the Appalachia’s, I can assure you there are still stories and sightings being passed down about strange occurrences in the Appalachia’s. My firsthand experience is quite dark and most people will experience something disturbing in nature if they stay a day or two. It is home & I roamed the mountains alone all the time, but it is also a place of danger, so be careful.
I would be interested in hearing of your experiences if possible. Im part Cherokee and Black and live far North in Washington State. (Not Seattle) WLB covered my families close encounter of the 3rd kind in Washington State. 1993 Christmas Eve. Stay Blessed.🙌

In 1981 Randall Smith shot and murdered two hikers on the Appalachian Trail. He only served 15 yrs for the murders. He was paroled in 1996. He then shot and two more hikers on the Appalachian Trail in 2008, but luckily these two victims survived. Smith never went to trial for these two shootings because he died in jail awaiting the trial. So, point being, there has been someone who was caught for murders as well as attempted murders on the Appalachian.
Well they unleash criminals on society all the time! 😢
I've heard many stories on your channel and hadn't considered my story worthwhile as it wasn't scary. I was hiking in Martinez canyon in February of 1979, my first child was born on February 1st my daughter. This trip was supposed to take a day and would mark my becoming a father with a family. I came upon an area where three washes met up with the main canyon. The sandy wash area was about two football fields wide and long. Sitting in the middle of the three washes the most beautiful German Shepherd I had ever seen. Beautiful healthy, shiny coat, well fed. I started calling out HELLO!! as I approached the dog and expected the owner to come out at any moment. I got to the dog and had started talking to the dog as I approached it. I gave it half of my ham& cheese sandwich and gave it water in my cupped hand. Most dogs won't drink from a person's hand sometimes even one's own dog. I spent about 10 minutes talking to the dog and sharing my food and water. I finally said goodbye to the dog and as I looked around believing the owners to be hiding. The dog and I were standing in the middle of a large wash approximately 400' x400' walking away I hadn't taken more than 3 steps when I turned back towards the dog and it was gone. I don't think it could run more than 400' and disappear from my sight in the time it took me to take 3-4 steps.

Maybe it was not a dog, but a wolf.

Parks and monuments are a perfect cover and also an easy way to keep people from living in areas they didn't want them and to control even the hour's people are allowed. It makes me wonder what other shit is hidden among the other parks around America.
I also strongly believe the national parks were put in place to allow whatever strange.creatures to live and hunt or there's a portal that allows for entry. I think humans sleeping at night is a perfect time to allow the supernatural to happen. Sleeping at least long hours is meant to hide the truth. Do any of us really know what happens at night while we sleep?

20 mins in Roger Coldwell.... My story is very similar. I live in the foothills of the Catskill Mountains in New York (which the Appalachian trail goes thru.) I've only told a handful of people about this in my lifetime. I'm 43 years old now, he watched the object and my incident happened when I was 14. I live in a rural area I have a mile-long dirt driveway. The railroad tracks that run through our County cross over my driveway about 150-ft off the main road. As I was getting home in the afternoon from school I was stepping off the school bus. As I was coming down the stairs off the bus quickly, I saw exactly what Roger Coldwell was describing! As a kid the only way that I could really describe it was like a cross between Anubis - Bigfoot - extraterrestrial and like Anubis it had a walking staff. By the time I looked down at the ground for my footing as I was coming off the bus, and I looked back up, it was gone! As I said in my lifetime, I have only spoken about this six or seven times. Before I could even turn around the buses door was shutting the bus was pulling off. I was scared more than I've ever been in my life! I walked up the County Road a little ways to the next house only a couple hundred feet away on the other side of the road. And I waited there until my mother got home from work. My mother picked me up from The neighbors about two hours later. As we were heading home down the driveway we came to the railroad tracks where ABE (Anubis Bigfoot extraterrestrial) was standing and right on the railroad tracks in the middle of the driveway what is a large wooden walking stick. I was so shocked and scared I refuse to walk that driveway for over a week. In your video, the drawing of the creature.... Well that's a pretty damn good drawing of it! It took me right back to that day, the hairs on my arms are still standing. I haven't even thought about ABE in more than 10 years!
Wow. That's a great story. I believe you. Weird things like this happen pretty often. It's that, nobody talks about it.
We humans are a strange creation as well.😢
So your mom saw it too?
The story about the lizard creature screaming like a woman reminds me of a time that back in high school when friends told me a story. I lived in a small town in the mountains of Idaho and most of my friends had been born there. They were always running around in the mountains, hunting or packing, day or night. They were completely comfortable out there. We would go out hunting for the weekend and just sleep next to a fire at night. One night I was in town hanging out with friends and two of the most hardcore guys came up to us all excited. They claimed they were way up in the mountains and heard a woman screaming. They stated that they had heard cougar make a noise like a woman but this was completely different, more like a woman. They thought someone might be in trouble so they cautiously headed that way. They weren't that worried because they were both carrying high powered rifles that they used for hunting elk. They were struggling through thick brush but just before they expected to see what was making the noise, one of them accidentally rolled a rock, making noise. The screaming stopped mid sound and became silent. They stood their looking at each other for a moment until a different loud roaring scream rang out and something started coming towards them through the brush. They said the roar was so loud and the crashing was so violent that they both immediately started running away from it as fast as they could. They were moving over large rocks and through heavy brush so they weren't moving very fast. What ever it was was still coming after them and roaring occasionally. Until this point we were positive they were just messing with us but we played along. What they said next made us start to take them a little more seriously. They said that they were struggling to get through the brush with their rifles and even though they hadn't communicated it, both felt like their rifles wouldn't be enough to do anything to whatever was chasing them so in a particularly thick brushy area, they both left their rifles and just scrambled as fast as they could. Shortly after the sound behind them faded to silence. They kept going until they got to the truck and then came straight to us. We were sceptical but there was no way either of them would risk damaging their beloved rifles. They then asked if we would be willing to go up there the next day to try to retrieve their rifles. They specified everyone bring the biggest guns we could and bring a couple for them. The next day we went up there and as we neared the area those two got real nervous. It took a while to locate the exact area they claimed to have dropped their rifle and found one of them. They swore the birth dropped their rifles in the same area but we couldn't find the second one. We searched around for a while and were finally able to locate the second one. It appeared to have been thrown and was somewhat hanging in a tree. We retrieved the rifle and got out of there. Both rifles were damaged from rough handling which led us to believe their story
Almost same thing happened to my friend and myself in southwest Virginia 3 years ago, but our shot gun was really messed up once we found it. The wooden part of it was ripped completely off of it and over 5-6 feet away from the rest of the gun. We wasn’t running with the riffle/ shot gun, but had leaned it up because I had gotten so tired of carrying it after 4-5 hours walking in the woods. I had a pistol and he did as well as his rifle. So I decided to leave mine and get it on the way back because we knew no humans would be in that area.but after traveling a couple more miles, we started
hearing heart rattling vibrations , unbelievable sounds, screaming like nothing we’d ever heard before and we’d both grew up in the mountains and were both over 50 years old.
I know it was Bigfoots and they had run us outta there right after they twisted our barrel so badly that everyone in the family agreed that the gun was destroyed and would be dangerous to attempt to try to shoot it .
What else could bend the barrel of a shot gun so bad that everyone agreed that no bullet could be shot from it and nobody thought it could be fixed.
I can’t imagine how strong they are but clearly it’s a unbelievable amount of power.
I’ve also seen trees bigger around than a gallon of milk be twisted as if it was a wet dish towel/ wash rag,
Imagine twisting a tree as thick as a gallon of milk.
Believe me guys, Bigfoot’s can twist us into with one hand if they want to.
We continued to hike up towards their cave, but we never took riffles again and they started interacting with us after a year or so,

A mountain lion call for a female is the screaming, it then chased them for either it thinking it was a female, prey, or was territorial.
@@retrochronic44 Agreed…Mountain lions are extraordinarily smart, and if making that kind of noise was likely trying to frighten them off. They very well interrupted two mating.
@@hahajones Yes, mountain lion(s) chase animals including humans if they interact, this is caused by 2 mountain lions mating or a territorial mountain lion, or a mountain lion defending it's cubs.
I’ve seen some weird shit, and it’s always comical to me that even people who grow up on the mountain or are local to where said incidents happen, who spend more time in the area than possible by another human being, start by saying look, I know the difference between a mr lion,elk bear,etc because we hunt them all the time and basically have almost an intimate relationship with them. That people chime in and add exactly what they said it’s not. Cause they heard it once on Tv and the description sounded like what he specifically said it wasn’t. Lotta open and wooded country in this land. When you what a 280lb whitetail buck with a huge rack disappear into what seems like thin air with 15 people around for the 50th time. Only then will it register how fast and easy an intelligent creature with the same senses could evade discovery almost indefinitely, especially if they’re smart enough to not leave remains of their dead and or there is very few of them. So much area in this country that’s hardly ever been touched my man!!
I grew up in the Appalachian Mountains, in North Carolina's Watauga County. The Trail has always had a reputation of odd things happening to those who hike some parts of its length. To give you an idea of how much area residents believe in being super cautious, I honestly can't remember a single person I know who decided to hike even a portion of the Trail even though we all grew up right next to it...
I hear you, bro!! And for good reason, I'm sure!!!

In Jan when I arrived in Dallas, TX I woke up looking at the sky. Upon looking I saw a strange light hovering in the sky, not moving but just sitting still. I kept looking around comparing light poles, planes, and other things to it..but it never moved and there was no pole connected to it. I got my then fiancé's attention and told him to look in that direction. As he looked the light began to slowly glide behind a cloud, and as we waited for it to reappear it never did. Once that cloud drifted on the lighg was nowhere to be seen. I believe it was a UFO or something not of thos dimension.

The guy with the dogman pacing around the camp fire sure knew how to light one hell of a quick fire for sure.
Haha... didn't he just...one minute the dog man was right on his heels, the next he had the time to light a huge fire and run into his tent to grab his gun !...
Was thinking the very same thing. It was tearing ass after him then it just slowed to a Michael Myers stroll. Despite my bullshit meter going off right and left I still enjoy the stories.
Think id grab my gun first... also later in the story he didnt know if the creature was attracted to his food or his fire??
I have a wood stove, sometimes it take a while to get a good fire going with split wood, much less the random wood you might have at a camp.

I hiked the 100 mile wilderness in ME while in college in 1999 and while camped out one night at a lean to we heard the loudest high pitched s reams ive ever imagined. It seemed to come from everywhere at onvmce and was very unnerving. The rest of the hike we kept seeing things darting from tree to tree flanking us on both sides always at least 50 yards away...needless to say i kept my pistol in my hsnd all day and night until we got to the car...i pretty much forgot about those screams for 20 years until watching "Finding Bigfoot" a few years ago and there was a recording that made my hair stand on end...it was exactly the screaming we heard that night and i am convinced that it was a Sasquatch
I had a similar experience several years ago right here at home while laying in bed at around 1:30-2:00 am. I live 1mi. East of Pacific Beach,WA. Here in Grays Harbor County. I was awake and I heard a loud sound that I took for a bird call. I cannot accurately imitate the sound. It happened 3xs sussestion. I forgot to ask my landlord if he heard it. Well last year while watching a Show about the Native people in Alaska who asked a group of guys to investigate their old townsite I think was named Portlock. Anyway they had a Bigfoot Researcher come up from northern California he had a number of recordings he played and one of them was the same sound that I heard. Not 10 miles from here at an old homestead over looking the ghost forrest in Copalis Beach I found a lard turd beside a tree, that was I guess 4" in dia. And 13" long. I still cannot figure out what animal would have left it there. There have been sitings of large hairy creatures in this area. About a year before I heard that sound outside my window I saw, one night, a redish orange round light or object about 10 ft. Outside my open window. It just kinda liked hovered there for a few minutes. I thought I was just seeing a red light from a tower not far away but as I thought about it I realized that light blinks and I cannot see it from my window. That also happened late at night. I've never told anyone this before. I have reason to believe that the things I've seen and heard going back to 1974-75 are of paranormal origin. I believe in Jesus Christ and creation so naturally I believe also in the spiritual realms and the entities that work in those realms and in our physical realm. Just thought you might find this interesting.
Ever hear a fox in heat?
@gamlinos yes, I've lived in the woods Mt whole life and have had semi tame foxes at different times and they're screaming is unnerving but this was something on another level
Love it. Listened to it for the whole run. Really appreciate these long ones. Makes for a very mysterious and entertaining night of stories and legends.
Its good. But even if you research it, and discover it, the government just ignores it, or intimidates people into silence, but yes, very entertaining ..and probably all true.
@@SuperOmnicronsj44 Sure most of its true. There are many very mysterious, ominous and downright spooky things that happen in this world. I’ve seen some of it. And ever since have never gotten over it. Hence why I’m entertained by things that I think of a lot and frighten or spook most others. And absolutely the government and others cover it up. Sometimes they’re the reason for the mystery in the first place or know of the reason, and sometimes the reasons are so mind blowing and reality altering, they know to keep the truth hidden away deep, that way society doesn’t lose its marbles.
Thank you for correctly pronouncing Appalachian
I feel bad for Elizabeth the witch. She doesn't sound evil, just wronged. Would we feel any different in her shoes?
That’s one of the many reasons I feel she’s still talked about to this day, many feel she was done very wrong and how sad they killed her sister in law who never did anything wrong either. It was mixture of a very intelligent woman who knew about all the organic healing that made her different and then they didn’t know exactly why there were many childhood deaths back then but we understand so much now. So it’s just hard to think that obviously a mother in so much grief plus there’s no telling what someone would say but it’s as if they (remember this was family members too) all just dismissed the tremendous good she had done all her life for any my came to her for help. I think that’s a big reason why it lives on because it’s all very sad, tragic and it’s a good cautionary tell about reacting without thinking and how you can’t be personally involved in justice, it ends up doing more unnecessary damage. So grateful that the justice system did come along because people don’t think just how horrible it truly is without it.

All these documented events reminded me of a camping and fishing trip back in July 12 of 2001 between the India and Bangladesh border. The five of us left from Shillong a capital of Meghalaya( A state of the North-Eastern part of India) early at dawn and reached the isolated fishing spot which is a border between India and Bangladesh late in the afternoon because we had to leave our vehicle behind and hike through dense jungle for three hours to reach the spot. Upon reaching there we unpack and set our lures then tied our fishing rods to sticks impaled to the ground, then me and my friend who is the most senior among us began cooking and preparing food for the night while the other three set up the big camping tent, the whole evening till night time we didn't catch anything so we began having dinner along with some whisky in order to calm us down and relax our muscles since it was a tedious trip. It was around 01:30AM while we were sharing jokes and stories and laughing among us that we heard branches high up on the trees crackling and breaking, most of us thought it was big bats or monkeys since they are very common there, then we heard the breaking and crackling sound traveling from trees to trees around us like it was circling us and then it abruptly stop, we pondered for sometime and then continued with our talks, that's when the noises from high up the trees began again, at that time the moon was very low and shining from behind the trees facing the front of our tent, we waited for the noise to travel to that direction so that we can see the silhouette of anything that is causing all the noise and as the noise traveled to the direction we wanted we were shock to see the silhouette of of a tall humanoid creature about 8 or 9 feet hopping from branches to branches of the trees in front of us, it was tall but very thin with very long arms and the head resembles a mango with its chin being very elongated, luckily one of our friend who came along who is somewhat like a geek and came prepared with everything took out a very big powerful halogen searchlight from his camping backpack and shone on the creature and it was at that time that we could see the full profile of the creature. It had a muddy brown skin color, a narrow shoulder with long arms with no fats at all but all lean and long muscles and its legs too had the same physical features like its arms, its head is long with small eyes very far from one another, a small nose and a small mouth which looks out of place because it had a very long chin. While it was facing away from us trying to get away from the powerful beam of the searchlight into the forest we could see some traces of thin hair on the back of its head and its armpits were as black as charcoal. Even though the creature had fled away from us by hopping away from trees to trees farther away until we couldn't see it anymore we we're awake the whole night keeping vigil till morning. It was until the sun came up that we all went into our tent and dozed off then wake up till late afternoon and the moment we woke up we pack our gears and headed for our vehicle not wanting to spend another night on that jungle but want to be in the safety and security of our homes back in civilization. We intended to spend a week there but ended up spending only a night and having the fright of our lives. Till today we never talked about that night and we were never able to figure out in our heads what the creature we witnessed was or where it came from.
That is a very creepy encounter. Have there been any other reports from people in the same area seeing it too? I can understand why you all left the next day, I would have done the same. Thank you for sharing your experience.
Munkee 🤷🏽♂️
@@indisishir if they never talked about, others probably don't talk about it either
@@FM-jo1jhYes, you're probably right.
@@indisishir People from that border-area use to come to the city to buy necessities, few of them are related from my mother's side, I asked one relative about the location where we fished that night, he replied that villagers never go to that particular area especially during night time because they always have the sensation that something is watching them, even during daytime most of them have the feeling of not being safe or sometime have the feeling of an extra presence.
Just found your channel for the first time yesterday and I'm obsessed!! You're so talented at storytelling, I couldn't wait to leave work today to carry on watching!
Me too!
@ Ava Mendham, yes this is a great channel, you should try listening/watching to Mr. Ballen or Ballen Shorts, simply the best- just AWESOME!
@@gigistunes Agreed, Mr. Ballen is the best !! This guy ain't bad either
Mr. ballen uses more of crime subjects but is good too !
Same!!
I feel so bad for Bella😭
If only her mistress hadn't been so curious with her precious companion 😭
forever
How could she just go to bed instead of going back. If my dogs gonna get abducted or killed im going too.
Bethany’s story broke my heart when her dog went missing. Mine is 13 and has been on 3 legs for 7 so I know she’s getting close to end of life, but to just lose her pup doing what they loved with such a strange occurrence, must be devastating. I hope the two get reunited soon, keep searching for that portal!
@Darkfarfetch 🤣 lmao!!
If she is telling the truth and it happened to me, I'd have walked into town - gotten the biggest stock of holy water & firearms possible and introduce those beings to the John Wick cinematic universe 😅
Story truly broke my heart too but honestly confused me how Bella was left - no terror could make me leave my bunnies in a dangerous spot, they're my universe.
If she went to her car and just left, it wouldn't have happened. People just have to prove something and can't leave the scene.
The part of the story that sends red flags for me is that she left the first time without Bella then suddenly realized she was not with her. Our dog is a beloved part of our family like one of our kids. I dont care where i was or what was happening, no way would i would be leaving without one of my kids or my dog. I call B.S.
@@bunnylovingbastardagree I adore my cat he comes first
The flying bat man creature is called an Aswan in the Philippines. I saw the silhouette of one of them standing beside me one time when I got up to pee. I had whitewashed the concrete wall around the yard, and I was drinking some beer. It's silhouette was standing next to me on the shadow on the wall. I thought someone was playing a joke on me, I said Im not scared of you Aswang you don't scare me. When I turned around there was No one there. These creatures are very common in the Philippines. They are real.
Paranoids always know!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I’m a newbie to UA-cam and I love documentaries and things of the sort…
You are in many videos and I see why!
You are awesome when explaining the stories and yet you don’t bore me!
I am enjoying learning from your doc’s and am excited for the future videos as well!
Thanks
Big foot case files is good also check it out.
what do you mean new? how old are you
I used to live in central western Queensland in Australia & have heard these sounds twice in the last 10 years. I also ran into another lady in the area that heard one lot of the sounds the same day as my mum & I. So they don't only happen in Yellowstone.
There's Bigfoot and dogmen and the Dogmen hunt the Bigfoot. Few species of bigfoot the Windigo which are 3 toed, the red haired, and the darker more doscile friendlier and may include blonde.
@@Joebob-Asilenthunter You know, I’m 65 and grew up in the states and I think we all live in the Matrix, so to speak, we are fed chosen BS by the powers that be. They wouldn’t want the peasants to get too smart. But, I have thought a lot about these reports from people about these strange creatures that certainly are not the norm and trying to wrap my head around it and figure out what the heck? Now, stay with me here. Even in the scriptures, beastiality (man having sex with animals is strictly forbidden)! Way back then, God had it put on record. Now, why did that have to happen? I think man has done this, this evil thing forbidden by God, and I think that animals can cross-breed and now you can have a hybrid of man, pig, goat, wolf, whatever. And, over time these creatures survived in the deep dark wilderness, and there is still lots of that out there, for this is a huge world. And, then there’s the Nephilim. Do they still exist? These fallen angels who mated with the daughters of men. The flood happened, but the Nephilim were supernatural beings and angels and demons exist people, just as sure as good and evil exists. Best make sure you know the Master, the one who redeemed you on that cross. Next time He returns, and I think it will be in my lifetime because almost all the biblical prophecies have been fulfilled, to the letter, people-He won’t be carrying a cross, He will be carrying a sword and He will be the Great Equalizer. Not talking religion here, folks, just the Savior. He offers this gift free to all who will just take it, because He loves you that much, always has, always will. You scoffers can just scoff if you want-this grandma knows what she’s talking about. It’s not a myth, it’s not a fable, I don’t care what that professor told you, He is real, always was and always will be. He is the Great I Am. Have a good day and take care, everyone!❤
So you heard the yowie
I had similar experience in the blue mountains never told anyone because I thought no one would believe me
@@sandraressel2262I am just now able to wrap my head around these being here on earth. I am a believer of our Lord. But why are most sightings noted now? It’s scary but if I see one ever I would call out to Jesus for help.
I feel so sad for Bethany and Bella 😔 thank you for all your hard work, Mr. B
Me too - I couldn’t cope if that happened to me- I was wondering if she could leave a gift for them by portal like a big geode or something energetic and generous and maybe they would swap her back if she left a letter with it.. probably years ago now but think I might of suggested that an exchange could maybe be possible I don’t know- stuff of nightmares and definitely put me off taking my dogs in woods on my own … bless them both…
I would like to say this to you
Werewolves/Dogmen exist… I have seen one with my own eyes
And I’ve never wet myself before
Out of fear but I did this time
ALWAYS WATCH YOUR BACK IN THE WOODS…NEVER GO WITHOUT PROTECTION
@Eric Stevens
Yeah I always bring condom’s with me to the woods as well. You can never have enough protection.
P.a werewolves are men that transform into wolves on full moons and such. I doubt they exist but dogmen do. They are always dogs, not men.
I've ALREADY SAID THAT MY DOG WOULD'VE BEEN THE VERY FIRST THING I CALLED AND GRABBED COMING OUT OF THAT ALLEGED "LEVITATION"... THANKS TO "BELLA"... AND FOR SHAME, MAN... I WOULD BE THRILLED IF I KNEW IT WAS JUST A MADE-UP STORY FOR THAT BEAUTIFUL ANIMAL'S SAKE, YOU KNOW?!

Alot of this could be explained by Fae. Traditionally, they were known to be absolutely horrifying creatures who hold immense magickal power. Particularly with controlling animals, shapeshifting, and creating strange noises and "bells", and making people disappear. They were most commonly mentioned in ancient Ireland (the Druids worked closely with them), but they exist worldwide. They're nature spirits, and can very from friendly and curious, to bloodthirsty and immensely dark. They have also been known for varying alot in physical appearance. Dark Fae are known to have black eyes and often possess greyish skin or fangs.
Fae are found almost exclusively in nature, so it makes sense why all of this would be happening in remote areas. The best course of action is to leave areas that have fae alone, and avoid messing with any strange objects you see.
I’m no expert on this subject but I think the Fae have one major weakness: IRON. Especially iron or steel objects that are twisted with sharp points and edges. 😊
You deserve so many more views and subs! Very high quality and informative video, plus you explain everything well and are clearly knowledgeable. Also amazed at the length of this video! The effort you put in is evident. Keep going!
Bethany said she looked everywhere for Bella but also said she refuses to go back to the spot where she last saw…? Maybe don’t watch Lord of the rings on drugs.

@Ari Out Here I see ya🙏🏿🙏🏾🙏🏽💙
I've experienced and seen some weird thing's in the woods that I can't explain. Some areas in national park's have never had human contact, so we really don't know what is out there. That's why I have a "what if" mindset.
Great storyteller you and Mr.Ballen are the best in the business, Burl Ives would be proud of you.
I’m glad you started adding your appearance to the awesome narrative voice that you so definitely have. I have been a loyal listener to your work and it’s good to get a glimpse at the individual behind the masterpieces that I am so devoted to. I know you are reading the stories that are sent to you but you have a very calming presentation that is your voice. I would not be far removed from saying you could definitely make a great career reading transcripts of even longer encounters or even nonfiction books. You have a natural talent and nobody wants to hear that stupid commercial grade artificial voice a lot of UA-camrs use. Excellent work mate !!!
I'm not surprised that there's some strange energies in the parks. In my early 20s, me and 8 or so friends heard footsteps surrounding us when we were partying near a dry creek in California. Happened on 4 different occasions. I was a security guard at the time, and shined my 1 million candle power spotlight, and saw nothing. The footsteps definitely sounded human, and were heard on both sides of us simultaneously. There was only 1 way in and out, and was probably a mile from the nearest house. We had campfires, and were making all kinds of racket. Not many animals would come up, with that in mind. At the time, I kinda figured it was an old native burial ground. I'd love to see someone in the Murrieta area do a video of that place at night lol
It could have been an old native burial ground could have been bigfoot. Sometimes they are trying to protect their own family and they understand how dangerous human beings can be to each other and to wildlife and especially things they don't understand. If you were making noise and racket partying and maybe they were trying to sleep and their children were trying to sleep so they were trying to scare you and make you leave they often Give warning signs1st because they don't want to harm anybody they just want you to leave
I'm so glad to have found your channel! You do an incredible job telling stories and tying history in when possible. I may in fact be reaching out to you to share my experiences which are many but most specifically I have been in three septic shock comas and each time I experienced a near-death experience but ultimately chose to remain.
That is fine no means the least of what I have experienced but I think is the easiest to Express. If you or anyone else is interested please let me know I will do my best to reach out if that's the case.
To anyone who is currently dealing with a terminal diagnosis and is experiencing fear at the end of their life please know that the next place is full of love and compassion appreciation gratitude in most importantly endless creation,
Blessings and peace everyone
So you went into a coma 3 times from fright? Am I understanding that correctly?
Edit. I am being sincere.
On the first story, I believe what the rangers witnessed is 100% authentic because my father and I came across something similar to what the rangers had described when we went squirrel hunting up north in WI couple yrs ago.
After my experienced, I was curious to find what this creature could be so I started doing some research and turns out these cryptic creatures(though not many) exist throughout all parts of the world.
Where in Wisconsin were you hunting, it is where I hail from!😅
Was it equally terrifying?
Sounds like a werewolf...
We have had cell phones with cameras for years, why doesn't anyone ever record these things?!
@@chrisreynoldsartwork in all honesty, if someone is that scared, I don’t think the first thought it to pull out a phone…people get struck in awe or freeze up in serious situations/ life threatening….
Just because she wasn’t smiling in the picture doesn’t mean anything other than it was once thought of as a very serious thing to do. Many even couldn’t hold a smile that long either. It took quite a bit of time to have a picture show up on film. Not that these people were angry, it was the norm of that time to hold still and not smile.
So true. Many don’t realize how different times were throughout history. It wasn’t common see people smile at all in early photographs and there were belief’s if you continuously went around smiling a lot or especially laughing too much other’s thought you might or were mentally unstable. Even today there’s many different ethic background’s and you can see the obvious difference between everyone, how there’s so many different “normal” ways of behavior.
You can actually create high definition photography with old cameras if you took the time and kept everything still for the time needed
@@marshallgrusovnik4957 that’s really neat. I didn’t know that could be done. I never really got to much into photography when I was younger. Thank you for the reply🙏🏼
Wisdom is to avoid hiking and avoid camping overnight in or near the woods. Being inside a fabric tent offers zero protection, especially being unarmed, and asleep. Prayer is foremost in anything you do.
I've only gotten lost one time in my life at age 8 while Turkey hunting. But my father and uncle as all war veterans, extreme woodsman and hunters. They taught us how to use and made sure we had a compass when we were just 5 and 6 years of age. Its absolutely paramount that you learn this as a basic safety measure. But also how to traverse the wild when you take a compass reading. In the military as a disabled Infantry rifleman and machine gunner. We would put every other tree we pass from our azimuth to the opposite shoulder. It will help keep you from traveling in circles. Humans often dont recognize they subconsciously walk in very large circles.
Your story narrative is unmatched my friend, ur awesome 😎. Good luck with your channel and keep up with this series because eventually everyone will know the truth about our national parks and demand answers! Prayers for everyone involved in these horror, weird and missing stories. ❤️

missing 411 has always fascinated me. the most interesting "out there" theory is that many national parks/forests are entrances to "D.U.M.B.s" and/or alien harvesting/hybrid genetic experiments supposedly "ok"ed by the "greada treaty" but could also easily be explained by the "more mundane" explanation of simple human trafficking. somethings clearly going on, because 600,000+ people go missing ... EVERY YEAR.
All facts. Glad I’m not the only one who’s done their homework. 😏
And 598,000 are Found.
@@liberty8424 this is the most bullshit statement with exactly zero evidence I've ever seen in my life. a five second search for how many people go missing in the united states annually totally debunks it.
600,000 nation wide. Not 600,00 in national parks.
@@kellygarland63 I never said national parks, did I?
I got caught in a pocket dimension portal thing in a state park in the Appalachian mountains in southern wv I was with a friend picking up rocks and we was beside the trail and as we was picking up these rocks it’s like the trail disappeared and every way we went it was to thick to get through except it we went deeper in the woods finally I convinced my friend if we drop the rocks we would get out of there so we did and sure enough we found the trail right away and got right out of there also their more to this story just to much to type but this main part of it but I thought we was going to turn into missing 411
Dave Paulides said the majority of strange disappearances take place in an area largely granite in composition.
@@maggipetty7047 the area we was in to my knowledge has granite limestone slate sandstone in the ground and was also near a body of water I know that’s one of his points too also had a time anomaly happen which is another thing with people who where found that was reported missing he’s wrote about those
Did you see that Dave has a new film coming out soon. Missing 411 The UFO Connection the preview looks really good.
Folks its true i been there as well
I'm staying out of parks I have enough weird things happen to me I need to go there and have some more
Bethany’s story is frightening and heartbreaking 💔. Poor Bella. I can’t imagine, I’d be destroyed. And the absolute fear Bethany must have felt is palpable. She sounds very credible imo. God bless her. I don’t know what we’re dealing with, but something is interacting with the human race and it manifests in a lot of different ways. 🙀🙈🙏
My family is from Norway and lived on a farm that was the last home on the end of a windy road at the top of a small mountain. They were surrounded by a thick forest. My grandmother used to tell her kids stories about a man named Gustava who lived in the trees and would get them if they wandered away from the house. I suspect many of the stores were created by parents in the wilderness to keep the children close to home!!!

We've had this happen to me, my mom, stepfather, cousin and my 2 kids. Whatever it is it will mimic our voices and once I saw this 3 dimensional shadow person with no discernible features coming out of my mom's bedroom she used as a large closet. So many other incidents that we all experienced and we have videos of it.
Would you share that video with me. I would love to see what you have ..prof isn't even prof nowadays. Which is a same so many people have prof but there are those that will say it isn't so .even being hit in there faces with it...this world 🌎 is wacko ...but anyway please share if you will
There's a lot of footage of "shadow people" floating around on the internet. Theres one of a man being violently dragged down a hallway by one on security footage by his ankle. They're also a recurring hallucination for a lot of people with "mental" disorders which involve visual hallucinations. I'd argue they're residents of the unseen spiritual plane where we go after death, but have become embodiments of negativity for whatever their reason. They feed off others negativity. Fear, stress, anxiety, etc. That's why in homes with hauntings the activity doesn't pick up until the entire family is terrified and fighting among themselves. They're weak to a strong mind and soul with conviction. They've already become perpetually dark. We haven't been forced to accept that fate yet. We have a chance to die with no regrets or worries or hatred in our hearts. They envy us. If they're bothering you it's because they want to instill negative vibes in your home to feed off of. Stand your ground and know that the Most High has your back when all is said and done. A man of God need not question or worry, for as detailed and perfectly constructed as the universe is down to an atomic level, so is the course of fate for the world. Even if the whole world were to die this instant we'd end up okay. Inshallah. 🙏

i wonder if i have those things fucking around then when mom was around i could here her voice and would come to her and she be sleep or absorbed in the TV and haddent sied anything for hours but when atualy calling me i wouldent here shit.

About 4 years ago I was in my backyard at night smoking a cigarette when I heard something walking up the woodchip path in my backyard that’s all forest. When this thing eventually stopped I couldn’t make it any features but till this day I’ll never forget how tall this thing was, not just that but also it’s red eyes that seemed to be glowing
And? Did you introduce yourself? Clearly he was curious about you.

@bastiat
Bear, Dogman, Sasquatch, Hillbilly redneck mountain men like those fellas from the movie Deliverance. You gotta be prepared brother
These national parks are restricted for a reason. I’ve heard portals and other entities but this government is obv hiding something.
💯 super soldier program
That's a terrifying thught
Im so glad this is being talked about more and more! People think there are ancient civilizations within the rock, petrified giant beings/trees/etc, aliens, the frequency there is different but in a good way.
Me and some friends used to hang out on a dirt road that goes up and around a lake in the next town over from where we lived. In the woods we found a large rock formation that resembles a sleeping dragon. While checking out we noticed what we could only describe as the slow beating of a large heart. That's when we noticed that it looked like it was breathing, very slowly. Several days later we went back because it was so cool only to find the whole area was fenced off with a chain link fence posted with official no trespassing signs.
You & mr. Ballen are my favorite storytellers on UA-cam keep up the good content
Thank you for the many stories in one video! 🙂
The most amazing story for me is the one with the portal - that may throw some light on missing 411.
Greetings from Germany

I wish American government will just tell us the truth about these state parks. A bunch of people go missing mysteriously in these parks every year. They don't even keep a record of it unless people push for certain cases
They have records, they lie about it, and won't allow us to see them.
Exactly! The government knows way more of what is really going on! What are they hiding? The American public has the right to know!!!! If the American public knew the truth, the government will lose the money it makes off of these national parks. However, it is not just about the money. Something sinister is happening. What is really going on? Why are people disappearing & are never found?
My brother is the most honest, no embellishment in his character or storytelling. So when I asked him, if he's ever seen anything unexplainable while hunting (we big deer hunter family) and he told me he saw a Dogman. I believe him, 100%. Made clear Not wolfman or werewolf u see in movies. Had a body like a cross between a NFL wide receiver and Belgian malnoise . I said what u mean? It was on 2 legs, tall and skinny with structure of human but, it's head, ears, short body fur, very defined muscles and tail of A (dog) Belgian mal in appearance at glance he said. Side note he mentioned multiple times long, thick Tail like a cheetah With straight hair thaot gradually got longer towards tip. My brother has never told a sole that story. And made me promise not say it was him if I repeated his experience to anyone.
Ask him how come he didnt shoot it!
Reminds me.of pyramid hieroglyphs
@@slanderman3296 It is. Fallen angels.
The Dogman sightings are happening over a lot of North America. Not only in national parks but in rural areas as well. I know of a few places that have several sightings. A few areas in Wisconsin, the upper peninsula of Michigan, as well as Minnesota. There are accounts in the southwest of the United States as well, Arizona, New Mexico, Utah, and Colorado as well.
I cannot imagine running into one of these creatures that has me using my fire as a barrier towards them as they circle my site. Truly so scary Even the description of their eyes.. so creepy
It's no joke. I ran into something that was not a Bear or a Moose, in the backwoods of Maine.
Bears and Moose are the "biggest" animals in that state.
Whatever it was, it was big enough to throw massive boulders into the River. Boulders I wouldn't even be able to lift, let alone throw. And when it vocalized itself, it sounded like it was 9 foot tall and 600 pounds, easy. It scared the absolute shit out of me, and 2 other friends.
I haven't gone back to that spot since. And it's been closed to the public got the last 14 years.
My BFF used to camp there ever since he was a little kid, and he even told me to be very careful because weird shit happens out there, and it's literally in the middle of nowhere.
I didn't pay that any mind really, I just thought he was fucking with me. He definitely was not.
I was 23 at the time, I'm 37 now, and I still get the jeebies whenever I think about what happened that night. And of course to top it all off, around 3am about 3 hours after the encounter, everyone was passed out, except for me. I heard this blood curdling scream, which sounded like a woman screaming bloody murder. Idk, that was pretty much the cherry on top of the whole incident.
Idk what it was that screamed, whether it was a woman, or am owl, but it just made the fear and anxiety worse.
@@michaeldavis3913 that’s an interesting encounter I’ve ran across things in the woods as well
Sorry " About precious Bella " 💜......
Might be crazy but these storey's only make me want to visit and see them myself
wonderful stories. I believe they are all true, the world is strange & full of things people can't explain. thank you for sharing them
I was attacked by one of those bat creatures driving on some back roads in Genessee County in Michigan on Clark rd between metamora and Lapeer when I was 17. It dive bombed my van and almost blew me off the road. It was a humanoid bat thebzize of a short man but with a large wing span. I got a clear look at it in my high beams. It made a sideways pass right in front of me and I locked eyes with it. It was exactly the way that one you just described looked except in my highbeams I got a good look at its eyes. Those irises were crystal blue.
Our gvt has a Super Soldier program & they’ve been messing with human/animal DNA for decades in underground military bases. Not surprised!!
I actually started a screenplay on this subject a while back.Agent said no studio would touch it with a ten foot pole.. " a no go topic"
Very interesting!! I say keep writing and maybe an independent person would pick it up?
Don't ever think we don't appreciate the effort you put into your videos because we do, thank you very for doing this, you're taking a lot of people out of this crazy stressful world we live in and dropping us off into the world of WHAT LURKS BENEATH so we can relax and foget about our daily troubles and emerge us all into the dark and mysterious realm of cryptid terror lol, thanks Zack keep up the great work and take care brother
Just know... If you ever hear the whooping sounds ,that means they are close so stay in the light stay with friends family be packing an never be alone.. but just know they throw rocks whatever you hey are.
@@ngsjjjjjjjj you got all of that correct I've dealt with it all plus a lot more almost all of my life well somewhere between 8 and 10 and now 55 and instead of throwing rocks at camp they throw rocks at my house and Bink pebbles off my windows and guess what that happened 20 minutes ago if that says anything about how just how much fun it's been for the past 45 years
How ironic my life is a dark, mysterious realm of cryptic terror. Maybe I should do a video.
Give me the cement jungle and bright city lights. You all crazy. Get in your big black truck, put that pedal to the medal and go home, lock the door, get under your blanket with a bottle of Jim Beam and find another hobby
The lizard was a raptor that escaped Hollywood...just kidding...I do believe that there are things in our national parks that we DONT want to see, especially at night!!!
Great content! Can never get enough of this type of content. I'd love if you'd put up chapter/clip markers so I can find specific stories and reports easier!
Thank you+
I don't believe that people can just disappe...
Where'd he go? 😮
LoL nice trick! 😂
Sometimes I wish I could disappear😢.
Bethany's story was TERRIFYING and tragic. Should definitely be told on film as a short, compilation like V/H/S or added into a longer storyline. Wow, thank you for sharing and scaring the crap out of me. 🙏🏼
A timestamp would be 👍
Ya no kidding!! I need whatever shes smoking.
@@mikewarner5583 got you fam. We grow the best
@@SammyDingusJreveryone thinks they grow the best when the plants genes do 99% of the work 😂
@oldkingcrow777 yeah it's just all the plants dude, that's why you can pay for top genetics and then just plant them and forget right? Oh wait you can't? It actually takes a lot of work to grow properly? Imagine that... 😑
Yep, I'd absolutely believe it. Even if •05% of the stories are true there is something super messed up happening. I don't reckon the powers that be give the rest of us much credit for our ability to cope with high strangeness, fearing folk will loose their shit.
Bravo WLB 👏 Thank you
You have to wonder. They say most tales of folklore are based in truth or have some truth in them. Frightening.
Yes exactly. I say the same thing all the time, even if less than 1% of these stories are true, it lends credence to high level cover up by our governments about tons of strange things that go bump in the night. Don't go out in the woods unarmed, the animals are the least of our worries out there
@@funny1226 very few things just come up out of nowhere. Almost always it’s rooted in semi truth. I’ve spent the majority of my life in the woods and I’ve only had a couple unexplainable encounters. I’ll never forget them though, they kinda changed my perception of the world
Omg ur so blessed and made for telling stories. U put emphasis where they should be. Luv listening to u. Don't know if these stories r true however u make them believable.
There's something to say about good story tellers. Thank you, I thoroughly enjoy listening
He's not so much as a storyteller but a truth teller and yes he is very good
Thank you for all the excellent work. You are a service to humanity. 🙌 P.S. I believe the woman's story. Something is off with our reality.
Some people call them "glitches in the matrix".
@@pamelalaub6204 Yes, I believe Cern and the Dwave Quantum computers have a lot to do with it.
Way to much cameras in the world for there not to be a picture…
There's actually several photos
Many in this video even
@@Hyst3ricalCha0syes but in awful resolution. It's a real question and a real problem, my smartphone is more performant than most pro level cameras from 10 years ago. Logically we should have high quality videos or many videos from different angles from paranormal phenomena. I am not denying that many rangers have experienced unexplained phenomena. People should always be taken seriously and with respect. But that shouldn't stop us asking questions.
I'm not trying to turn people against enjoying the outdoors just be safe and there's strength in numbers
forever
Thank you so much for all the hard work you're putting into your content and uploads!!
Cuz paranoia is a beautiful thing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! So adorable!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You are right, HIKING SOLO is very dangerous! there are feral jerks on Appalacian Trail!!!!! Also dangerous!
Thank you for all you do. People need to know what the government is doing
Many govt's around the world, are corrupt... It's just not the U.S. govt.
Lol!
You can't handle the truth.
You are a gifted storyteller!! So happy I found your channel.
We don’t fight with flesh but with principalities
Bethany isn’t crazy. What she experienced was a botched abduction. They tried to abduct her, but because of Bethany’s and Bella’s love for each other Bella was able to break her out of her hypnosis long enough for the hypnosis to break. They took Bella to try and understand how she was able to break her owner/friend out of their hypnosis. The beings that took Bella don’t understand the love that we and creatures of this planet are able to experience. Unfortunately Bethany may never see Bella again.
Genuinely asking not being rude, how do you know?
@@ROTTNHOMESTEAD I haven't even heard the story yet and I am wondering the same thing
To say that an animal smart enough to stay hidden this long wouldn't have feelings just does not make sense to me
The dog was left where this all happened and she was too scared to go back. She abandoned Bella.
Warrior of Love ❤️
I believe you figured that one out!
The dog barked...next thing she realized, she couldn't find her dog...
But, she did remember being told by that character, We're keeping the dog....
I figured it was an
abduction, too... Just couldn't figure out why they let her go and kept the dog! I think you got it😉❤️
I listened to your stories tonight for the first time,. Let's just say that you're now one of my favourites. I've listened to many but not everyone can tell a good story and keep my concentration. Thanks from Australia.
HE REALLY IS GOOD ISN'T HE?
People, a 22 caliber rifle to any animal bigger than a squirrel is completely useless!!!
Truth
So why carry one at all?
For Bunnies, squirrels, prairie dogs, porcupines, some birds of you get lucky, even some fish if you get lucky. You carry one cause they are fun.
@@mckenzie.latham91exactly.
bro, I look forward to the daily uploads and the sources you have with the stories are great. your voice works well, I get so absorbed into the narration. makes it easy to chill and lose a few hours.
even better when on your day off work and you haven't gotta do shit.😂🤣🙏👍🇬🇧🇬🇧
David Paulides is the World's Expert Investigator of Missing People in US Parks. His 411 Missing videos are outstanding.
He's an expert in leaving out or twisting facts so his narrative don't get destroyed
Love Missing 411. Dave seems like a real stand-up guy. Facts not BS.
Love your channel and never miss it. FYI Teton is pronounced with the emphasis on the first syllable rather than the second.
I would hire you to come to our family reunion camp out to tell us scary stories. Love your work. Bravo bravo
A)They studied her and were going to keep her but her love and Bela's love for each other somehow brought her back and Bela communicated "take me instead of her" knowing her husband needed her. Bella saved Bethany with her undying love which beings had to respect and honor and probably admired with surprised astonishment. Wanting that loving , loyal dog for themselves. Noting how Bella stood steadfastly by awaiting and willing Bethany's return. Beautiful , beautiful, Bella...
B) The bond of their undying love for eachother and Bethany's will and longing to stay in touch with Bella enable beings into her consciousness and allow communication and manipulation of her dreams.
Lol the comments on this case specifically crack me up 😂
Dating back decades to my first visit to Yellowstone, I've always felt embraced while in the area. However, there are time lapses in my memory during each visit. It was on my first visit as a child, that my large family, pulled a "home alone" moment, leaving me behind for hours, before realizing they left me behind. They returned and I was where they thought I would be. I was the second to youngest out of 8 children. 6 of which were on the trip, I was the loner in the family, often spending more time off up in a tree, than on the ground.
Highly doubt that happened. Also highly doubt you have lapses in memory only at Yellowstone. Sounds like you might have early warning signs of dementia
Time lapses. That’s not good.
I think some of these beasts are demons or hell dogs.
" feelings are specious or not static"!
My first husband grew up near Yosemite. His father and grandfather had worked there.
And the kids all spent lots of time there.
I hated going to visit there. It just made made stomach do flip flops and I was anxious and sick to my stomach most of the time we were there.
All his siblings joke casually about missing time. Or being forgotten about and left alone. (Seems to happen a lot in these places) I found It weird but am also not from a big family nor did I grow up in environment where people had hours of free time to wander.
Their joking reminded me of a Simpsons episode based on The Prisoner where Marge says "it's lovely once you get used to the druggings"
Fast forward years, my husband went missing. He turned up dead in the park. Ruled a suicide. But I can't shake the thought that he was lured back there by something unresolved from those missing times as a kid.
Not saying it's paranormal.
Humans are plenty monstrous enough.
Just saying I am more indoorsy for a reason.
