So upon looking at Livid_Linguine’s account to tag her for this vid, I realized she was NOT the person who posted that video with the #skinwalker hashtag - it was a repost. The woman they found they did call the police and get help for! Just wanted to let y’all know ❤️
Hey Loey. This vid was soo creepy 😱 I loved it!! Keep up the amazing work. ❤️❤️❤️
I never had an experience like that is freaky I don't like that but I have seen spirits before and type of master or creature.
hi loey just wanted to ask about the glamnetic lashes!! is it safe? magnetic eyeliners sound like they might get into your eye when wiping it off with a makeup remover :(
Ok
Having heard so many weird screams and people calling my name even when in the end no one did now makes some sense… but I’ve always chalked it up to my ears being weird. Now I think there is a Mimic somewhere in my suburb or school. I’ve had so many experiences and a reason maybe for that is that my house it right next to a pretty tame park, and normally there can be some weird things coming from there, like odd dog calls or whatever.
As an indigenous dude it’s so funny to hear someone’s experience with a “skinwalker” as it looking like the twilight CGI wolves 😭😭
😂😂
First thing that crossed my mind when I heard her description was “dogman”.
@@RuinedTemple that's exactly what i thought. She didn't see the s word, she saw a dogman.
As an indigenous person should you even be naming them?
@@LucianCorrvinus there are different takes on the for each tribe so idk.
That "help me, somebody" one is the biggest NOPE ever.
Luckily it's from a fictional series ^^;
@【Ram 】 its called Gemini Home Entertainment
@@roseopal4787 doesn't make it any less of a freakshow to me, unfortunately 😭
@【Ram 】 Gemini home entertainment ☺️
Oh someone already replied my bad
Pro tip - 1.The farther the noise, the closer it is
2.never whistle at night(it attracts them)
3.never say their name.(traditional or local name)
my friend and I go on night walks at this hiking trail behind our neighborhood every other night and always whistle together and then we’ll be having a conversation and one of us has to say “SKINWALKER SKINWALKER SKINWALKER” at least once that walk and run a little bit ahead of the other and then stand there and whistle. never have we seen or heard anything and nothings ever happened
@@kaleiah2800 ok and
You're describing owls
@@kaleiah2800 boutta do this fr but by myself
if you whistle at night it tells them your location and NEVER EVER SAY THEIR NAME
When I was younger, I was making soup in my kitchen home alone, looked to the right and saw my mum peering at me from behind the wall to our lounge with wide eyes. I went cold because I knew she was at work. Checked the house to be double sure and there was no one there. Still makes me want to cry to this day.
that literally gave me chills reading that omg
Omg this is so sketchy, it gave me chills! Reading this totally just triggered a memory I have from when I was a kid, its a bit different from this story though, but, I was home with my grandmother after school just me and her and we were upstairs when I heard these garage door slam and my mother say "helloo" like she normally would. Excitedly I ran down the stairs saying "mommy your home!" to meet me mom by the door and say hello and hug her etc. When I got to the garage door she wasn't there. At first I thought " oh she went back into the garage cause she left something in her car" so I go peek out and her car isnt even in the garage, its closed, the lights are off and she is definitely not home yet. Even my grandmother heard her say "hello"...such a weird experience, I totally almost forgot about.
I’ve seen my parents walk past my room when I was home alone and called them multiples times to ask if they were home or not. Now I’m considering if these experiences were mimics.
It's your mind if it was a skinwalker it would of killed you and SKINWALKERS ARE NOT REAL
Was she inside your house?
I’m a skeptic, but there’s one thing that happened when I was a kid that I just can’t explain. I was sitting in the backseat of the car while my parents ran into a fruit stand to grab a couple groceries. While I was sitting there I suddenly saw my mom appear next to my window, smiling unnaturally/creepily and looking down at me. I did a double take and she wasn’t there anymore, but instead I saw her standing inside the fruit stand. There was NO way she got back there that quickly in a split second. Maybe it was just a neuron misfiring but it still creeps me out thinking about it.
Dude the same thing happened to me but I was around I'd say 4-5 and me and my family were heading back from a trip and we had to take a detour down a dirt road because of a construction site and all of a sudden the radio turns on and started chanting and we seen a old Plymouth just barreling down the road and just seemed to vanished
those ghosts be messing with y’all 😭
There’s a thing where your brain like to fill gaps/unknown things in with known things
Your brain sees something in your blurry periphery and imposes something you know on top of if it
I actually figured out that I can trigger my brain into doing this by putting a jacket or other dark cloth on chair and pacing in circles ( or spinning around)
My brain like to fill in my peripheral glimpse of cloth as a person
Perhaps something passed your window and your brain filled it in?
Ummmmm... I just got chills reading that 😂
Am I safe from these? I live in the Midwest no one near a cemetery. My house isn’t haunted either…
These type of videos never scare me, but the video where he hears the voice saying “come here, come here” gave me chills. That was terrifying
I tagged her in that because it messed with me so bad- absolutely terrifying.
RIGHTT
I scrolled by that one on my fyp and I've never scrolled away so fast
That was the worst for me too also because it was INSIDE his house. Wow I have goosebumps rn.
@@idcHedumpedme hey it's in the video at 9:36
I am indigenous and grew up near/on the Navajo Reservation. Hearing this resurgence is honestly really scary due to some experiences I’ve had. When you talked about that big wolf running across your path, that means to turn around and not continue the same path in Navajo culture. It’s usually associated with coyotes but it might be the same with wolves. Just something that struck me while watching. Thank you for respecting our culture while discussing this!
As a Native American I really appreciate that you respected our culture when speaking about this 💗
Hey Adrianna Is The Skinwalker More Terrifying The Windigo
There both
@@domsugar9160 a SK is not a Wendigo, they are completely different creatures
@@americanbrownreviews technically, both are terrifying, but I'm leaning towards the s word because you don't know who they could be. Once the fur comes off, they're someone. You just don't know who.
@@amyjewel8840 The idea of it is just terrifying
i appreciate loey respecting culture while discussing this though😌
Ikr some tiktokers are so disrespectful when talking about them
Facts on facts
The only disrespectful thing is probably putting the name of the "flesh pedestrians" in the title because I heard even typing or writing the word is disrespectful (same with w word)
@@webbyishere i’m native and like i always heard growing up it only rlly counts if you say it in ur native language and at night.
No disrespect, I genuinely don't know! Where's the disrespect?
My little sister said she was hearing mimics a few months ago, but we had to tell her it was bobcats so she would ignore it and not look for the source. Needless to say my family did a lot of cleansing that week
What’s the best way to cleanse when you experience something like this?
@@2idiots_on_horses My mom has her own routine where she cleanses our house with sage, she then cleansed the main places my sister heard the calls, and basically banished any negativity coming into our house. She does a few more things that I'll have to ask her about, but they've had this routine for generations. I know there are other ways to do it but this is just the way my family does it
@@normiise2372 spooky 😳
Am I safe from these? I live in the Midwest no one near a cemetery. My house isn’t haunted either…
@@stardove345 No. Hi, I live in the midwest. Nowhere near a KNOWN cemetery.
Also a fact: crows like to mimic things, so maybe that can explain weird noises people hear in the woods
Ur saying a crow can just happen to mimic someone you care about screaming for help bc that's what skinnys do
@@itsnickim1101 I’m not referring to that, just when someone hears a weird voice in the woods, yk?
@@chloskyskies4399 oh yeah ik what u mean
@@itsnickim1101 crows mimic human voices very well, better than parrots do
foxes, elk, and fisher cats make a bunch of creepy sounds too.
there's also lyre birds. don't know where you can find them, i've never seen one in person, but the sounds they can make are crazy.
This is my friends story: She was taking her dog for a walk when she heard a child crying. Her being a nice person thought the child may be lost so she went looking for it. As she was getting closer the sound became more of a scream and that's when her dog started running away from the sound. She got a bad feeling and decided to leave. She's pretty sure it was a mimic but she doesn't actually know.
Sounds like a cougar
Bro don’t scare me , I am alone rn
Thats scary as hell
My entire family have had SO MANY mimic experiences in our house (our house is built in the area of a pagan burial ground too) my mum has seen my sister in the garden, my sister sees me all over the house when I’m not there ect… it’s soooo freaky
Okay I’ve watched the whole video and I am not sleeping tonight 💀
Our apartment is built on an old cemetery… I never saw anything but my dad says he saw me a couple times on the balcony when i was hours away in uni. I feel energy waves all the time here
Whenever I'm home alone, I always hear my sister calling my name from her room
@@DominiQaLoveJustin our old apartment was built like right under a small cemetery, its hard to explain, there was a hill right next to it that lead up behind it, making the driveway a hill and then the backyard was on a hill. we never had any problems with hauntings from it, we even played on the gravestones as kids, in a respectful-ish way ofc, never broke any or insulted them. one night we overheard our upstairs neighbor talking to the landlord, saying how she brought home a ghost and that it followed her. after that night we ended up getting haunted, shadow figures, being pushed, things crawling under beds, you get it. it did stop eventually after we got a priest, and we moved away to a different apartment in the same state, where we had a small haunting there as well. we now live in a different state and our current home is free of spirits luckily.
@@arwen08 thats so creepy!!!
i think they’re definitely way more terrifying to indigenous people and those who grew up in rural areas and/or the southwest because they are tales and experiences we grew up with directly. I think rn on tiktok it’s just something that’s sort of a novelty but to those of us who it hits closer to home, the fear is much more visceral
As a 5th generation, idk. I’m never scared. not really comforted either but part of me feels like they are protecting something sacred to them.
But I like I said, I don’t know.
@@basicbrittani also i shouldn’t be speaking for the indigenous community at all since I myself am not indigenous so I apologize
@@catholicofthenorth as long as you aren’t being disrespectful, I don’t mind.
Most of my ancestors have long passed and unfortunately they weren’t in tuned enough to pass traditions onto my mother, so maybe I don’t have much justification for speaking on such a subject either. (Mescalero Apache)
I’ve just never been terrified of their concept but I’m not going to actively invite it into my life either.
@Inari I had to leave the video cause says it and it's night. I wasn't fast enough and she said the whole thing and now I'm super anxious lmao. I don't wanna risk all that😂😅
@Inari I call them flesh pedestrians
My friend who has one in the area calls them Hamburgers
The whistling thing,, makes sense. My friend and I were cutting through the cemetery to get to my house quicker at night and I was whistling off and on and something kept whistling back. Me being dumb was like "okay let's keep doing it" and every time I whistled, the whistle in the distance would come closer. My friend and I got a bad feeling so I stopped and, thinking back on the situation, it was really creepy
When I saw the lake one I freezed, my grandma introduced me to cletic mythology from a young age (we have celtic roots). I've heard many stories of spirits trying to lure people into the water to drown them. I'm happy they didn't stop the car.
Apparently that person was real and fell off of a bridge or something. She genuinely needed help. The police or whoever got to her though, no thanks to the people in the TikTok though. 🙄
Like a siren or mermaid, or like la llorona?
pretty sure they're called kelpies (although I think that's more the scottish name for them) but my thoughts exactly
@@carlycchapman oh yeah? Link or it didn't happen
@@carlycchapman even if it wasn't paranormal that would've been a set up for a robbery, can't trust alot people nowadays so it makes sense to not get out and not get robbed or even killed
The clip at 16:35 is from an unfiction/analog horror series called Gemini Home Entertainment! It's a super interesting watch, and even includes a playable video game with that exact scene in it! Maybe you could cover it someday? If not, that's totally fine! It just seems like it might be up your alley.
Yes! That's what it's called. Inside A Mind had a video on it.
I keep seeing that video in so many tiktok reaction videos. Every time I’m like, c’mon! I’m always surprised the people reacting haven’t seen it before.
That’s what’s it’s called! I had totally forgotten the name of the series but definitely remembered that clip!
There you have it! I honestly just thought it was someone on drugs or drunk
I'm tired of seeing it because it can so easily be found out to not be real :D
Seeing the first tik tok made me realize how absolutely horrifying it would be to hear my own voice- coming from somewhere that isn’t my own mouth, lol.
Whenever you said that a dog was barking (7:32) my heart DROPPED. Tennessee is known to be a state that is infested with mimics because of how much greenery is there. (Plus the MASSIVE cave system under the entire state) If you’re still in Tennessee then PLEASE be careful talking abt them. I’ve lived there my whole life and have both heard and experienced things that where caused by them.
Omg. I live in TN too and I didn’t know this. Fffffff
I remember staying in TN, in the woods and my mother and I are very spiritual and when we stayed in the woods we couldn't sleep. There was just something about that area I was in that made me feel so uneasy I could never explain it
Am I safe from these? I live in the Midwest no one near a cemetery. My house isn’t haunted either…
Sasquatch and dogmen are widely known around TN.
FAN-FVCKING-TASTIC MY GUY 😭 I LIVE IN TN AND AM ABT GO TO SLEEP 😭😭😭
The only issue I have with mimics becoming a trend on tiktok is that since it can just look like a person, I wonder how many people are noping out of a situation where it’s just legitimately someone who might need some help. The soaked girl on the side of the road? Maybe she was just a girl and stopping to ask if she was okay might have been nice. Not every strange person is a mimic. I hope that people still realize that rather than sensationalizing it by filming and getting scared and running away from every strange person who looks in need of help that they see.
All you can do is call police if it was real and if no one ends up being there then you at least tried.
I know I’m 2 years late to this video & comment but same, at least call the police? What if it was someone who’d been hurt or hurt by someone that managed to get out? 😭 I hope it wasn’t a real person and if it was I hope someone else helped her.
Did you know? Tigers use the sound of their prey to lure them in. They've been heard making the calls of sloth bears, sambar deer, and even cows. There's a video of a guy either on here or on TikTok laughing about how the tigers in his sanctuary were 'mooing,' when in reality, they are super intelligent creatures trying to lure their in-captivity favorite food over. Only the highest-level predators, hunting the largest prey, are capable of this. I thought about SWs the instant I learned that 😬
Yeah skinny bois shapeshift lol
Am I safe from these? I live in the Midwest no one near a cemetery. My house isn’t haunted either…
@@stardove345 as long as you don’t say SW out loud then you’re good I think
@@itzgachawolf9989 okay thank god-I have OCD and I cant control it I always end up thinking it every once in a while
Now that think about the red riding hood she most probably encountered a skin walker that day. Like a fox ate her grandma and dressed up as her grandma- 💀🤚
im home alone and the first one absolutely TERRIFIES ME
also tip, if you ACTUALLY need help because you're about to get kidnapped or sa'd, yell fire instead of help. people will actually listen
My mom just left the house and I started hearing noises. It's probably just a brain making me freak sort of thing but damn.... The second she leaves😢
That does seem like a good idea
Ps skinwalkers don't even exist
@@Lucky-132 You clearly dont go into the woods much. Better watch your mouth or you might regret it.
@@jazzspider8569 thats like saying god exists. There no proof of anything i rather run my mouth and get proven wrong so far nothing
@@settingspray3033 I never said it's a definite. I said you MIGHT regret it. All I'm saying is I would never be caught out at night walking alone whistling. It isn't a good idea to tempt the odds.
So my gf is half native but her grandma is full blooded Native American. So its completely appropriate to call them skin walkers without being native, she explained to me that skin walkers were mainly discovered by the native tribes and named by them, and its completely appropriate to call them skin walkers cause they wear other "skins" to deceive you and lure you in, as well as mimicking sounds. I myself have a couple experiences being that I live near native lands and fuuuuck these things are scary.
My family is native American and your wolf story gave me chills! My uncle's were teenagers and on a late night joy ride. They were not doing drugs and we're not intoxicated. As they were driving there was some giant wolf/human hybrid on all fours keeping up with the car. They got up to 70+ mph and it wouldn't let up. They were scared to death, but whatever it was eventually ran away. To this day my uncle's cannot physically talk about it and it was my mom that told me the story. They are so genuinely traumatized they cannot sit through Lord of the Rings because the Wargs are the closest possible rendition of what that creature looked like. So crazy that you had a similar story!
Mimics scare the crap out of me and I'm pretty sure I've had an experience. We were in my husband's uncle's timber camping with a group and one of them joked about "mimics" but said the word and I told him not to say it again cause that could make one appear and later that night while sitting around the fire we heard this bizarre animalistic screaming across the creek and we couldn't see it even though it sounded like it was right next to us and it was terrifying. Later that night something tall was scratching against my and my husband's tent and it woke me up and I thought I was going to have a heart attack as I just laid there staring into the darkness trying to pretend to be asleep. One if the scariest things I think that has ever happened to me
ooh big nope i think id just become deceased if that happened to me
You're literally so brave I already got scared whilst reading this 😭😭
Am I safe from these? I live in the Midwest no one near a cemetery. My house isn’t haunted either…
Those were animals
thank you.
Sincerely from the bottom of my little indigenous, two spirited heart; thank you.
I’m only 3:58 (specifically 😋) in atm, but the the fact that you made a point to explain your use of mimic’ ngl has me tearin up. You can tell it’s coming from a place of love and respect and I hope you lnow how much moments like this mean xo
You do know these things are in all cultures right
Dumb question; what is two spirited?
Am I the only one who sees a person crying for help or soaking wet on the side of the road and thinks "yep, that person really needs help" rather than "yep, skinwalker." 🤯
I agree what if someone got hurt or lost or attacked and needed help I thought that too I’m unsure
Loey you’re so informed and thoughtful! I’m glad that you chose to not name them by name for the majority of the video. I think that we’re going see an uptick in sightings. The more we talk about them, the more they show up. They’re drawn to their name. Like when you call a dog. But much worse. Elders from my tribe discourage casually talking about them. It’s a really good to be informed on them and that’s why we pass the stories on. Unfortunately not just in heavily wooded areas anymore because of deforestation.
I’ve had people think that it sounds soo cool to see one and they purposely talked about them. Called out their name into the woods. One of those people ended up finding their beloved pet disembodied on their back porch. It’s not cool and they will kill you if they get close enough. Please take this as a warning. Be informed, but don’t take this stuff lightly.
Am I safe from these? I live in the Midwest no one near a cemetery. My house isn’t haunted either… can u say their name in ur head
@@stardove345 I'd say in general we are equal parts safe and in danger. It doesn't put you at immediate risk to think about them or learn more to protect yourself. People who recklessly speak of them are the ones who are putting themselves in danger. I don't think there's any one place in the country that is "safer" than another. However, from my experience, they tend to be out in nature rather than in cities. Cities are safer since it's not somewhere they'd be naturally, but they'll go where they're drawn.
@@PumpkinSpikey i just heard screaming and help coming from a small area of trees while walking home and had to explain to my sibling what they were in fear...WITHOUT actually saying the name but i think im dead lol 💀
Except she got two videos completely wrong. The woman that crawled from the lake actually needed help because she fell off a bridge and the one after that was an ARG
I had an experience - something mimicked my mom IN MY HOUSE luring me to my basement early in the morning- still the most terrifying thing that ever happened to me
Did you have a conversation with it?
The vid with the guy standing completely still while yelling out isn't a real skinwalker vid, it's from an ARG known as Gemini Home Entertainment.
It’s a analog horror series, an arg is completely different
Thank god
@@how-iconic they literally released a video game, lethal omen, so ghe is an arg
@jay shadey Releasing a video game doesn't make something an ARG. If that was the case, every video game would be an ARG. Gemini is analog horror even though they released a game, an ARG would be something like TheSunVanished or the_exits_are_missing.
When I was a little girl, my Dad was working on this piece of land we owned about a mile from our home. He was tending to the animals and I was playing near by when I suddenly heard my Mom call out. I looked up to the top of this bluff where I heard the voice and my Dad notice my sudden attention in that direction and asked me what was wrong. I told him I heard Mom call out. I cannot remember if she said my name or his, but he told me to stay close to him as he hurried with the last of his chores. We walked home as fast as we could to find a fire truck in front of our home. Mom was inside with a couple of neighbors and explained something happened to the furnace and there was a small fire but it was quickly taken care of. Mom was confused as why we were home so soon and we explained how I heard her voice. To this day I am not sure what it was.
i live in a place where mimics and stuff like that is very rare but when we go upstate for vacations the experiences are horrifying. one that stands out is this one time i woke up in a cold sweat to my little sister shaking me awake and saying “there’s a you in the kitchen!” she was around five or six so she used little kid language but i pulled her into bed with me and told her to just go to sleep. she might have just been messing around but i took it very seriously, especially in the middle of indigenous land in the rural midwest lol
My ex boyfriends brother told me about a time he woke up on the couch at 4am and seen me sitting across from him brushing my hair….. I was dead asleep with my ex in his room. Always gives me chills when I think about it…..
it was said in a reply not too far down, but the man standing in the field screaming for help is actually from Gemini Home Entertainment. Very creepy stuff, but lucky for us, 100% fiction!! Specifically, he's from the video about Woodcrawlers.
Okay so I am convinced that I had an encounter with a mimic when I was younger. So in a house that my family was renting, I saw one of my brothers walking upstairs to my room and then I heard him calling me from outside. I started to head outside when my big sister came running inside and grabbed me after she slammed the door behind her and locked it, she made sure to lock the windows and front door as well. And we went upstairs to my room where my brother was sitting on this rocking chair, watching a show on the tablet. We could hear what sounded like someone or something calling for us to come outside. My big sister called our mom on her phone and said that someone was trying to break in and my mom called the police who arrived in like five minutes. The thing left when the cops came and the cops checked the area and didn't find anyone. And when my mom came back with the other kids, she told us that from now on we were gonna stay with one of my aunt's instead. My big sister never said why she came running into the house. But it really scared her because she refused to let me sleep alone after that incident.
So my family is very traditional in Hispanic and some indigenous beliefs. One thing my family believes in full heartedly is when someone calls your name you never answer yes you have to either go find the person you heard and ask them if they called you or verify who it is by calling back the same question. It's believed that although "mimics" can copy someone's voice they can't just come in to your house if there isn't a way to get in. However, spirits who already reside in homes (in our belief) can use "mimics" tricks to let themselves into a person's body so saying yes gives them permission to come in. It's very scary and the last time I had an experience like this I was sitting on the couch watching my brother (who is 2) and we where home alone. I heard my mom call out to my brother over the sound of the TV so I paused the TV and picked up my brother. And just simply started reciting "your not welcome in my home" after a few minutes the voice literally yelled for me so I started saying it louder"your not welcome in my home" then my TV turned off and turned itself back on but after that it stopped and not even joking 20 minutes later my mom got home and asked if I used the Alexa system to make a announcement to my room. Most terrified I've ever been in my life.
Me after binging buzzfeed unsolved all day: all right time to watch something not scary
Also me who’s been waiting for Loey to upload: dang it here we go
Are we the same human or what!! As was I!!
Am I safe from these? I live in the Midwest no one near a cemetery. My house isn’t haunted either…
@@stardove345 then you should be gucci shawty, don’t go around looking for them or seeking to invite it into your life and you should be all good.
@@basicbrittani okay thank you! I’m just worried because my brain does the opposite of what I want and always focuses on them and then says it in fear?? I’ve never actually said it out loud and I never will but I’m worried my brain will get me hurt
@@stardove345I think you’re gonna be just fine! No worries.
I woke up from a nightmare and I asked my parents if they're there cuz it felt like the house was too quiet. Somebody answered me (sounded like my dad), and I felt relieved so to my surprise, when I checked downstairs to ask what we're having for breakfast, nobody was home 😬 They were all out getting groceries.
I always called them doppelgangers. One of the scariest experiences of my life had to be when I walked out of my room and saw my mom on the couch. She slowly turned to me and her eyes looked almost black. I thought I was just tripping but then I turned to go into her bedroom to grab a soda and she was laying in bed. I immediately looked down the hall to the living room and whatever I saw was gone.
As an indigenous person I really appreciate the respect to the culture you have.
Am I safe from these? I live in the Midwest no one near a cemetery. My house isn’t haunted either… can u say their name in ur head
Ive never had my own mimic experience. But for whatever reason skinwalkers/wendigo freak me out to an unreasonable degree. I live out in the country and one night I called for my dog by whistling and I seriously got the most intense panic. I thoroughly observed my dog before letting him inisde due to my fear of it mimicing one of my pets. Im not sure what it is about this that scares me more than ghosts, true crime, and most cryptozoology.
I dont really know if this is a mimic experience or just a regular ghost. So my dads house is haunted af, the old lady who owned it before us died in the home and we experience stuff all the time, little things like things going missing from an obvious spot and suddenly appearing again out of the blue, music turning down volume by itself, shadows in the corner of our eyes etc. But this one thing REALLY spooked me, my dad and stepmom out real bad. It was late evening, the three of us watching tv whilst my younger siblings sleeping upstairs. Suddenly we hear a loud bang upstairs like something heavy fell over, footsteps running towards the strairwell and my little sisters voice softly calling out «daaaad, come here» so he went to check. She was in a deep sleep and nothing had fallen over. He came down looking really pale when he told us she was sleeping soundly. What makes it extra creepy is that the door to her room was shut, and so was the door from the hallway upstairs leading to the stairs. Those are loud doors so we would def hear them opening/closing with a very distinct sound. I did NOT sleep that night :^(
This was the scariest Loey Lane video I've seen yet!! Omg the video with their own voice in the other room saying "c'mere" REALLY got me.
I've had voices yelling at me that sounds like my family members yell at me and pound on my door telling me to wake up in the mornings when I've been home alone.
It's always been super creepy!!
Wait this reminds me of when I was little and I was laying on my moms bed hiding under the blanket because idk I was little, I peeked out from under the blanket and saw my moms legs and apron, what she wore before she went to work, I assumed she was coming to give me a hug before she went to work like she normally did so I hid back under the blanket and pretended like I was sleeping just to play around. I then opened the blanket to try to startle her but the room was empty. I then went to the kitchen where she was cooking dinner in normal clothes. I’ll never forget that.
Thank you so much for considering us indigenous people and our stories, Loey. That was super cool and sweet of you to think about that. Another reason you're awesome!

Aside from the guy screaming bloody murder while standing perfectly still, does anyone ever call the police in these situations in case there really is someone in danger in the woods somewhere
I’ve had an odd experience at work. I was talking to my coworker. And saw an old woman wearing a green shirt standing there. I stopped talking to my coworker and said “hi how can I help you?” My coworker looked at me really weird. And she said who are you talking to? There was no one there….
here in India there is this legend or rule of sorts that if ur walking alone and someone especially a family member calls out your name from behind your back you should never turn around and keep walking. i never understood why but when i was introduced to the concept of mimics it all made sense. also i have a few paranormal as well as 2 stories of mimics (at least what i think that is what it was) and if anybody's interested yall can reply and i'll be happy to post:)
It’s been a year, but would you be willing to tell me these story’s still?
Hey it’s me again, I’m replying twice now can I please hear the stories 😭
I was 99.9% sure that the lake woman one was more in the area of a "woman in white", borrowing the term from the TV show supernatural, until they showed that they came back later during the day and found actual physical evidence.
but dont you think the actual physical evidence would have dried up until the morning unless it was just a few moments ago she was there?
@@amanjotkaur8225 i think that depending on exactly what time they had been in the area there is a chance that the evidence could have evaporated or still been there. It seems that it is autumn with all the leaves in the ground in that 2nd video so sunrise would probably be 7am at the earliest. The temperature in fall can drop to 40°F or lower between 2am to 6am (at least in the northern part of the U.S.) which could have frozen the water, since it seemed like a small puddle the girl was in from getting out of the lake, until melting and evaporating at 7am and theoretically the water could still possibly be there. There are a lot of hypotheticals in this tho since I wasn't there in person to experience it. But I think it could still be slightly possible.
It's actually a real woman who'd gone missing. She'd fallen into the waters and managed to crawl out. The original posters actually called the cops to help her and the video after was them going back afterwards to show exactly where she'd been.
@@lacytaylor1501 good to know
Being raised in an extremely religious household, I've always believed in the paranormal/spiritual. Also the fact that I have friends from so many different backgrounds and nationalities has helped that a lot. I do remember having many paranormal experiences as a child and even now in my late teen years. From seeing apparitions to hearing things to having things move and lights shut off and turn on by themselves. But I do distinctly remember about one of my indigenous friends coming over and we were just chillin in my room when we both heard my mom call us from downstairs. I looked at them and something just gave me chills, but we went anyway. She was in the kitchen and as we walked in and asked what was wrong she looked at us confused like "What do you mean? Is there anything you need?". We both told her we came down bc we heard her call us and she just shook her head and turned on some sage. We went back upstairs and that's the first and last time my friend mentioned skinwalkers. She told me that I should never talk about them or whistle at night because that's what summons them. I've had many similar experiences since, but I pay no mind unless I hear my full name being called in an angry way (that's how I know it's real). It's just so uncanny to me what some entities will do to try luring you.
I’ve heard of skinwalkers but never knew what they were, mimics are scary! I wonder if that finally explains my experience I had one time. I was young, around 9/10 and I was playing outside in my yard. It was a beautiful day and I laid down in the grass and just looked up at the sky for a few minutes while I was resting. All of a sudden I hear my name being called, but it was so weird because it was my voice calling my own name. So I sat up, no one was around my parents and siblings were off somewhere but it wasn’t them who called. So I laid back down, kinda like oh I imagined it. Well while laying down again, my name was called again. It was very soft this time, very sweet sounding. But my voice again. I didn’t get up though, I just laid there, closed my eyes and enjoyed listening to it. My explanation had always been an Angel was talking to be. My grandma had died around the time and I always assumed it was her talking to me through an Angel, calling my name. I never told anyone, nor has it ever happened again. It’s always perplexed me when thinking about it, but I never had a bad feeling from it.
That last clip is from an ARG type thing online called Jack Wylder’s Wilderness Survival Guide. People have been spreading it as a “real skinwalker video” but aren’t giving credit to the creators, Gemini Home Entertainment.
The woman who crawled out of the lake had actually fallen in from off a bridge, and she genuinely needed help.
I figured from what I remembered hearing about this clip. Police ended up getting a hold of her but no thanks to the people in the video.
How someone could see someone in distress like that and not call the police is beyond me
@@autumnmusic22 Police adobe people. It to stop for people like this as it a common trap for human trafficking. You supposed to keep going and report it. They did exactly what they should have
@@danielledaley1649 except, you know, she was actually a woman who was missing who had fallen off a bridge into the river. They reported it to the police but kept driving around and they eventually came. But either way, the scenario is scary for both parties
@@basicbrittani are you on crack? Because it was reported to the police.
I can honestly say that mimics scare me just as much as you. I first heard about them listening to scary story podcasts. They are the most terrifying thing I have ever heard of in my life. I've always heard that they were in the woods. The videos where the guy heard his voice in the house just increased my fear by 1000%. They are the worst.
Mimics unnerve me more than anything else, and the way they've come up in media is pretty creepy, too. Barring the obvious ones--X-Files, I think, did an episode, and Supernatural did at least one--they've also shown up in Annihilation (creepy for more reasons than just the voice mimic), and recently in Lovecraft Country. It's a pervasive concept in at least US culture--us, but not us. Us, but Other. Us, but dangerous.
one time i heard my mum calling my name from her room, so i texted her “what?” and she texted me back saying “what?” and i said “you just called me” and she texted me back saying “i’m at work” so i stayed in my locked bedroom until she came home lol
Loey is an actual goddess and we just live in her world
Absolutely yes
Lol
You're hilarious
I was in my early teens, doing my hair in the bathroom with the door closed when I heard my Mom on the other side of the door say my name. I said yes, but she didn’t answer. I opened the door expecting to see her standing there…, but no one was there!
I was so surprised that I immediately called out to my Mom & found her making lunch in the kitchen on the other side of the house. I asked her if she had just called me. She said no & went on making lunch. We were the only people home. I felt totally creeped out and confused as I know someone had called out my name standing on the other side of the bathroom door!! It had sounded just like my Mother.
My son and I had the same experience. He heard me and I heard him, and sometimes we heard the other when they weren’t home.
You just opened a few memories of mine.
This happened over the space of a few days in the same week
I was sitting in my room and my mum bursts in asking what I wanted because she said I'd shouted her name when I had been dead silent focusing on my work for school
The same thing happened with my step dad except this time he shouted from the bottom of the stairs shouting "what" and I obviously didn't know what he meant then he said "you called my name! Didn't you?" So I responded with "no" and then he went back
I also have a few times where I heard my parents calling for me which I found strange because they'd always call me on the phone to let me know something just incase I didn't hear because I usually listen to music whilst doing work.
Hey Loey I saw this video and I’m freaked out bc we moved to our new place in August and have experienced the same stuff in our house. We have caught things on tape from MIMICKING to shadow men rocking back and forth. I didn’t know other people were experiencing this too!! I’ll show you everything I got so far in the 3 months of being here!!! Love your work keep it up and thank you!!
The "skinwalker" footage of the man standing in the field at sunset screaming is actually from an analog horror series called Gemini Home Entertainment!! It's on youtube it's very good :D
I was at my cousin’s house babysitting her son and daughter when I was a teenager and it was like summertime in the afternoon and the kids we’re supposedly outside playing in the yard when all of sudden her 10 year old son walked past me really fast and went into his bedroom. I followed him because I wondered why he came back into the house so fast. He didn’t say anything he just walked right into his room and into his walk in closet. For some reason I felt something was off about him so I followed him into his room and even looked into his walk in closet and there was nobody there! I was like wtf?! I turned and looked out his bedroom window and could literally see him and his sister playing in the yard outside. I was scared af. But I did notice that the “mimic” or “doppelgänger” or whatever it was was wearing a blue baseball cap and her real son wasn’t wearing a hat or cap at all. One of the weirdest things I’ve seen.
There is this story that my sister always tells me that I had never been able to understand until now. Once she woke up to go to school, proceeded to go to the bathroom that is situated in front of my parents bedroom. The closest to the door is my dad, so she entered the room, said “good morning dad” and brushed his shoulder. She went to the bathroom and when she came back my dad wasn’t there anymore. She asked my mum what was happening and she told her that our dad had left the house hours before because he had to go to work early. The realisation just hit me that it must have been a mimic or something like that…very scary
She even touched it...
@@AutumnSwift2 it was honestly very scary, nothing bad happened to us and maybe it wasn’t exactly a skinwalker, but it was very similar to this and it was SPOOKY
@@AutumnSwift2 it's the devil himself
13:21 I was going to say this sounded kind of like a goat kid but the way it tapers off is like a real baby would when it screams....terrifying.
Yeah, it 100% sounded like a baby, it's interesting that Loey didn't hear that. What was she filming though? I couldn't figure it out. Like, did she know the source of the sound or was she just filming in the general direction. The way she zoomed in made me think she saw something, but I can't find it.
@@ThatOneLadyOverHere
You didn’t see the pale/white thing that looks like it could be the head of something very tall peeking out from behind the right side of the black shed/barn building?
I almost wonder if the “baby crying” sound actually came from within the house & wasn’t meant to be the subject of the video.
She may have been trying to film whatever she was seeing behind the building, because at the end when she says, “ok, we’re going back inside now,” whatever it is quickly pulls back behind the corner of the building where it can’t be seen.
I've had my grandfather call out my name he kept yelling "Kimberly!" I ran out to where he slept which was the living room couch, to see him fast asleep snoring.. it was so terrifying I slept with my light on for nights straight after that 🙃
Something like that happened to me a few months ago…
I think it was between 4 and 5pm I was just about to leave the house and my dad was also at home so I said bye to him and left…
Later texted him if he was still at home and if I should bring anything for dinner…
a few hours later he texted me back being like: “I’m on my break right now and couldn’t reply when you sent the message… I thought you knew my shifts - I won’t be home until 11pm”
I checked and realized that he went to work at 2pm and that there was no way that he could have been at home at the time…
There is always something creepy or startling happening at my house like hearing my name being called when no one did, hissing (I do have cats so that could be ruled out still creepy tho), and waking up with cuts, scratches, or bruises. I also woke up from a dream and was paralyzed it was just scary waking up not being able to move.
The feeling of being paralized before falling asleep or when one wakes up is called sleep paralysis, look into it :) hearing your name sounds extremly spooky though.... :0
I was watching stories of skin walkers on tiktok like 3 nights ago and freaked myself out. 🤣 I couldn't stop!
I had a similar experience, I walked into my house and heard my brother say my name, both of them were out, then I heard my dad shout me whilst out with a mate even though he wasnt there
The skinwalker screaming “help” comes from a bunch of UA-cam videos made by ‘Gemini Home Entertainment’ called ‘Wilderness Survival Guide’ at the mark 5.32… they’re some of the scariest videos I’ve seen on UA-cam, up there with the Backrooms! I’m surprised you haven’t made a video on them already Loey! ☺️💜
So I talked about this story once to a friend and they said to me "why didn't you do anything like call the cops".
It was late at night in the winter I went outside all alone. I was a little ways away from a restaurant that was closed and I suddenly heard someone screaming and then dead silence. I didn't approach I didn't see anyone get into a car and leave. I just heard them there and then could not hear them there anymore. I went back inside and wondered if someone had been kidnapped or something to scream like that. but now that i think about it it probably wasn't human.
the only possible paranormal experience i've had could be considered a mimic encounter even though i never actually saw it... i had my back turned to my front door and was on the desktop in 2004. It was not long after i had gotten home from school and no one else was there yet. My dad walked in the front door (i was in the sunken living room at the far end of our house with the front door to my back, two smalls steps going up to the dining room was all the separated me from that entryway. As he walked in, he said his usual "hey bug" and walked directly to his room, into his attached master bathroom and i assumed he was getting ready to shower. I need to point out that i had headphones on one hear and didnt turn around when he entered. I only threw my hand up to wave while continuning my homework on the compuer. My mom called not long after and asked if my dad got a ride from work or if she needed to pick him up. I told her he was already home. Less than a half hour later, the door swung open behind me again and my mom walks in..... then my dad walks in with her. They both start giving me a playful hard time. She tells me that she is glad my dad called where she worked when he did because she was on her way out the door to come home thinking he was already here. I was so confused. I didnt even speak to them. I jumped straight up, ran to their room that i was now realizing was still shut and dark like no one had been in there. I ran into the bathroom. Nothing. No one in my brothers room. or my room. Or the other bathroom. I felt the strong urge to get out of the house and sit on the porch. It was frightening for a second then we all laughed it off and just assumed i had mistaken some passing sound as the door opening and my dad speaking to me.
It wasn't until this past year or two that i started considering that perhaps this was a mimic/skinwalker/doppleganger.
I've had things like this happen to me since I was a kid, where I would hear my own voice, my parent's voices, or other voices calling my name at night. I usually never saw anything, and found my parents weren't calling me, so I started ignoring the voices. Turns out I have narcolepsy and experience audio hallucinations, and occasionally visual hallucinations which I thought were paranormal experiences. Things get super trippy when you have narcolepsy, lots of questioning your reality. I think a lot of spooky experiences actually come from our brains acting up in weird ways, but I still think anything is possible.
My friend was dealing with a mimic. She ended up really toxic and I had to remove her from my life. Crazy scary stuff.
I had what I think was a mimic experience when I was around twelve years old. My sister and her best friend were out getting ice cream and my parents were downstairs watching tv while I was upstairs listening to music on my Walkman and ironing clothes for school the next day. I could see the upstairs hallway from the ironing board. I was just singing along to my music and chilling, when I suddenly saw a girl with blonde hair run down the upstairs hallway into my sister’s bedroom. I assumed it was my sister and her best friend (who was blonde and similar build/outfit to the girl I’d seen) home early so I took off my headphones and called out their names. No answer. I stepped out into the hallway- no one was there. Checked my sister’s bedroom- empty with the lights out. My parents were both still downstairs. My sister and her friend didn’t get home for hours and it wasn’t the last time I saw that blonde girl in my house.
That's freaking terrifying 😖
Once I laid in my room with the door open and saw my roommate enter her room out of the corner of my eye and didn't think much of it... But 10 minutes later my roommate came home and nobody was in her room... Really freaked me out
This is a very, very interesting topic for me..im really into learning about these Native Creatures or "Skinwalkers" because I have never heard of them until I was like 23 years old and I'm 27 now..but hearing you talk about you guys hearing your dad yell for you is what I find even more interesting, because when I was younger and growing up, my family personally always believed if you heard a loved ones voice it was something called a "Token" which meant a warning that something bad is going to happen or will happen to that certain loved one that you heard which could result in death...so this is very interesting to see another perspective of this...I am a very open minded person and a very spiritual person! And I love hearing about other religions or beliefs and cultures!! I just feel bad for close minded people, because there's just so much more to life then they even realize, then I even realize!! Awesome video though! I can tell if we ever met girl! We would be talking all day and night!! Lol. Sending my love!! 🤍🤍
I grew up living with a Lakota grandfather and I remember him telling me so many stories when I was young all about flesh pedestrians and windy bois. I hate seeing how blurry the lines have become these days of what these creatures actually are and how the media has twisted their image. By all means I love people creating ideas of spooky creatures, but calling them by the name of something completely different just doesn't sit right with me.
I've never heard of them referred to as "mimic"... in my culture they're called "shapeshifters".
Hearing them called mimics is a bit weird lol.
I've actually told you about a skin Walker or shapeshifter in my culture called Kushma, who is better known outside my culture as "sleep paralysis".
The indigenous people from my state are the Houma Indians (pronounced Ho-mah) and they have their own take on skinwalkers. If you care to look it up and learn about our little culture and indigenous people.
Something about saying "skin walker" scares the living fuck out of me. Even though I know almost nothing about my indigenous culture I don't even like saying the word skin walkers out loud, like ones going to come out and kill me.
@@AutumnSwift2 the legend I just spoke of, thinking of him or talking about him does draw him to you 😳 skinwalker does sound pretty creepy.
Are you in Louisiana??
@@KS95x yes. Are you?
13:21 it also looks like there's something peaking out from behind the tent, a lot higher than an average person's head would be....
As I've recently gotten into cryptids and creatures such as mimics or skinwalkers, i think about stories I have. One that bothers me is how I used to hear my mother calling my name clear as day, yet whenever I went to her and asked her what she needed, she said she wouldn't call me. Hell, there were even times where she screamed my named from across our house and when I finally talked to her, she said she didn't call me.
When I was around 15 I was at home alone. I walked to my bedroom humming the song Scarborough Fair. After closing the door, I sat on my bed and read a book for a while. I then heard humming coming from behind my door. It was my voice humming the exact same tune. Mimic orrrr ? 😬
As an indigenous person, this pisses me off so much. People think its a fun creepy new thing and is not. One, it's part of a culture that DOESN'T TALK ABOUT THEM (MAYBE that's a clue?) And two, if any of these WERE real, they'd be dead.
Absolutely disgusting. (Not you, Loey! Just people who think this is fine when it's not.)
I don't know much about them. Obviously some of these are other things like unfictions stories (it seems like the one with the guy screaming "help me" was probably posted by a fan, so I don't know if they were directly trying to copy this or were just creating their own creepy monster) or were more like ghosts mimicking the living, which is why I think it's good that Loey stuck to the word mimick. But as for the others, they kept their distance and didn't actually say much about them, and as far as the one with the children I don't even know if she saw it till after, but you said if they were real they would be dead, why is that? Obviously you don't have to answer if you don't want to. I'm just genuinely curious and trying to figure out the actual rules and way it works.
@@ThatOneLadyOverHere
I’m also genuinely curious, particularly due to knowing how common mis- & dis- information is these days- ESPECIALLY when ppl are trying to use these concepts to entertain others (eg. like how the tribal concepts of the wendigo have been stomped all over ever since a fictional horror novelist described creatures he named “wendigo” in his book as bipedal, rotting, undead deer-men-beasts with antlers that chase ppl around the forest).
@MISSis You're actually telling an indigenous person that their legends, culture, etc. aren't real? Are you lost fam?
@MISSis even yt "settlers" have reported seeing them new creatures are discovered all the time and tribes that have been in this country longer then anyone say they exist and u dis regarding it shows your ignorance and racism
@MISSis your racist towards natives.
As a kid, we rented an old Victorian home. My brother (3 years younger than me) would see me around the home when I was not even home. Once he was sick and laying on the couch and he said he saw me standing at the foot of the couch and I was talking to him. My mom came in and asked him who he was talking to and he said me. My mom almost lost it as I was out with my dad. We used to also hear other family member's voices calling out for us or answering us when we called out. We would have knocks on our door, go to open it and no one would be there as we opened it and then we would have knocks on the front door and this would happen all day long. That house was crazy with paranormal.
I myself have never had a skin walker experience, though with my dad being native, I remember being frightened by his experience when he was younger. now I'm not so afraid anymore. he told me that they feed off fear and all that scary stuff, so me being unafraid makes me feel safe
When I was around 7-8 years old, I used to stay at my grandma's house all the time; she lives in the middle of nowhere desert Arizona, one time I was looking out the window at night when something came up to it and started staring in at me, and I just stared back, I used to think it was a coyote, but recently I went out around to where that window is in the back of the house and only then realized that it is about 8ft off the ground and that was terrifying because suddenly I couldn't explain that experience away
Mimics are the one thing that scare me the most too. Especially now that I have little babies
i couldnt run from the traumatizing astroworld videos and im so glad you posted🥺❤️
I use tarot cards, and i have a system I use for yes/no/maybe questions with them. I work at a camp in a pretty big forest in NJ. One day I was doing readings with my campers, and one of them asked if there were any flesh pedestrians at our camp. The cards said yes. (For those skeptic, we also asked the cards if we were going to have a specific meal that night, a question which none of us knew the answer to, and the cards got it right) My other counselors and I have a lot of experiences with hearing things from the parts of uncleared woods on the camp, including the multiple times we heard an ice cream truck from quite a while out from the main road.
I’m in NC and never knew what I and my mom (two different instances within a couple months apart) went through was a mimic. It was in our house this was about 10 years ago now & even thinking back on what happened gives me the creeps. For me I woke up to hearing my parents arguing back/forth then yelled for me, I got up out of bed and went down stairs to a empty quiet house. I looked everywhere for them before seeing the car gone, I called them & locked myself in my room until I knew it was really them back home. My dad is a total skeptic so he blamed it on the TV but I checked & nothing was on (I also know my parents voices). Then a couple months later the same happened with my mom, she said she heard me/my dad arguing when she woke up then came to check on us. Of course when she walked out we weren’t there, we were otw home from church. Glad to finally know other people have s experienced the same things I guess but I don’t think it was a skinny (since they’ve been compared in this) but something like it.
Where I grew up, it was off of tribal land in southwest Colorado. We had one road that, at night, you didn’t ever stop on it, due to mimics. If you hit a dog or anything, you kept going and dealt with it in the daylight. It was such a scary road to begin with.
Do you one the name of the road? I live in Colorado
This reminds me of a time when I was little, at my cousin's house, at night, in a room alone cause everyone else was watching something on the tv and I'd wandered off. I made the hand motion of scratching in a beam of light coming through the back door, and my shadow made scratching sounds ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE ROOM. I noped right back to where everyone else was after that. Definitely one of those experiences that make me wary of what exists in reality.
Yeah, idk about mimics as a whole, but there is one experience my family and i went through that was odd.
Apparently, my uncle was in the (open) garage and said he heard my grandmother calling him. But seeing that the garage was empty he went inside the house and saw my grandmother was in the kitchen. I was also in a hallway and i thought i also heard my grandmother, but i was from upstairs and she was still in the kitchen, downstairs.
Anyways, my mom and aunt came home and mentioned that there was a large dog that they saw walking under a lamppost. But it looked wrong.
Idk what to make of this experience, this happened back when i was a kid and my brain could have just exacerbated it.
Also! Loey’s story reminded me of this, I think my parents experienced something similar to what her and her brother heard. So one time, I was woken up by my parents and they were panicking saying I was screaming bloody murder in my sleep. Now, this easily may have been a night terror and I realize that but what’s weird is that I had no signs of that having happened, no memories of a bad dream (actually, I remembered having a good dream?), no increased heart rate, I wasn’t sweating, etc. so they’re all panicked and I’m going are you sure and dad said he literally thought someone was in the room attacking me because of how loud my screams were. Scary stuff and idk, could be a night terror, but it seemed weird to me.
you have the same warmth of my spanish teacher. her favorite “holiday” is halloween and she loves telling spooky stories in class and her personality is soft and friendly.
Well I was sitting in my office working on notes for my D&D sessions and I thought I'd put this on to watch while I did it. Now all the lights in the house are on and I had to go upstairs to check on my sleeping son twice.
