The last case of the old man living in isolation, peacefully in the woods, and being killed by a somebody, made me sad. The capacity of doing evil by humans is infinity
@ Bread and circus it was probably a hit or someone wanted him really gone. Think for one to go out that far put a fridge out there and stuff him inside and hope of finding him is beyond comprehension tells me killer had time and possibly help from legal spectrum.
If he's living so far from civilization that he can go years without another human even knowing if he's alive or not, he's not living peacefully. That's hard work, and a lot of expensive equipment. You don't just live in isolation in Alaska without being able to harvest and process resources yourself. He was probably raided by some guys. Not even necessarily for the bigger equipment, like tractors, but just for his guns, maybe stores of food, a safe filled with cash or metals (that an older guy especially would be likely to have as opposed to a younger guy who might keep all his finances digital) etc. Or maybe just an assumption that he had that stuff. Bad people go to Alaska because it's easy to hide. It's big and empty.
Excuse me what?! "So this object is live landmine. But we can't have it go off here. We're gonna make you DRIVE IT BACK to your suburban neighborhood and THEN you can call the police to get it."

The Robison murders took place near Good Hart, Michigan in 1968, in the heart of northern Michigan's tourist area. It was big news. A book came out about the case, and the author remembered riding "up north" with her family listening to the Tigers on WJR, when a newscaster broke in to say a Detroit-area family of six was found murdered near Good Hart. The murders are still unsolved. The prime suspect discussed here, Joseph Scolaro, was never charged with a crime. He killed himself in 1973.

The trail cam story is super interesting. There are more detailed versions out there. It was pretty wild. The officer involved shooting was not reported until the following day, due to coms issues. Could you imagine sleeping in the woods all night with a dead body? The officers had to maintain the scene for evidence. Wild!
Another one to add to your collection is happening right now in my country (New Zealand). It’s been reported someone purchased an old storage unit in Auckland, sold with all contents, and inside were two suitcases with the remains of two school aged kids. The investigation is ongoing. Everyone here is just shocked and sickened at this and they can’t find out who the kids’ family is yet.
There are so many unsolved cases of people finding bodies in suitcases along roadsides, in forests and in water. The most recent one I've heard about was a couple that won a storage unit locker at an auction and found two suitcases inside. They brought them home and opened them on their lawn. Each suitcase contained the body of a child, one around 7yrs old and the other apx. 12yrs old. If you ever come across a suitcase that is out of place don't open it. Call the police and have them investigate if anything is inside.
@@stinkymarty Sure they can, that's why we pay taxes. In fact, anytime there's a suspicious package or case found they want people to call them. There are signs all over public transit.
I was homeless for almost a year and lived a tent life in the woods for atleast 6 months. Atleast 1 night a week, maybe more, I would get this overwhelming feeling of dread and someone watching me in the dark. Those entire nights, I would be highly alert and unable to sleep. Bascially patrolling my campsite with my Machete in hand, eyeing the darkness. Waiting for anything to pop out of the darkness. Primal stuff.

I was running through the woods at night once because my dog got lose..and decided to run into the woods. It was pitch black out, i had only a tiny pen light to see and as i was running after the dog.. i felt what i can only describe as a person sort of closelining me, then grabbing onto my arm. I was in shock and my adrenaline was pumping..i pulled my collapsible baton out(always carry one) and started going to town on what i thought was a person. I was going nuts..throwing knees and elbows and just swinging that baton like a madman!!!! After beating this object for about a minute i managed to grab my little pen light..and it turns out it was a small stree with a really wicked arm shaped branch, i am not even exaggerating the tree was about 6 foot tall and had this branch sticking out that looked exactly like a rough outline of a arm with a hand. I Unfortently destroyed part of it. Thankfully the rest of it survived..man the woods can play tricks on you sometimes. EDIT/Update: I forgot to mention this. It is important that i do. This happened back in 2014 or so. My family and I moved last year in october. Last year around September, before we had to move, i actually tried to look for the tree. It was gone..I mean gone...vanished! There was no longer a root where it was. There were no tracks or cut marks or any signs that a person chopped it down. To this day I honestly think it was something else, and one day it pulled itself out of the ground and walked away. The land we used to live on actually used to belong to native americans.
That was a great story. I have to admit I was actually thinking oh my God and then went straight to laughing. It had suspense, drama and comedy for such a short story. Good job. Btw did you ever find the dog?
The case where the teen was found stuffed into a chimney of a unused cabin, in a way that had to of included a other person.... Really gets to me. Literally the kids clothes were found inside the cabin, yet the chimney was sealed up and it makes zero sense that if he was in the cabin, that he would go out, try to get back in the cabin thru the chimney, naked, and then it's impossible that all the things would be shut and closed behind him, by him, then he dies in the chimney by his own hand? No way!
I love the woods. I grew up in southern VA on the border with NC. My family owns around 30 acres on the edge of a massive forest that runs all the way back to the mountains. Woods are absolutely gorgeous, surreal, can be quite unsettling. I love walking them at night, but I've definitely heard and seen some very strange, eerie things while on my treks.
@@eon7722 One of the craziest things to happen was something growling, throwing rocks at me. Eyes glowed red and stood at least 8 feet high. I had a short barreled 12 ga loaded up with 00 buck but I felt like I might as well have been carrying a nerf gun...
@@alexmcginnis1 Exactly! Correct me if I'm wrong (I'm not a hunter/trapper just using basic logic), but trip wire leading into above ground spikes are NOT meant for 4 legged creatures as they have a lower center of gravity and don't topple over as easily, like us bipedal creatures with a higher center of gravity Those kids essentially made vietcong traps for "animals" A variant of Punji sticks for God sake!

About the Christopher Knight story. Living in Maine I can tell you that fairly often winter temps go well below 10 degrees Fahrenheit. Sometimes the temps will be below 0 F for days at a time. The fact that he even survived so long in the woods in those conditions, not to mention not even getting frostbite, is actually very impressive. Just saying.
@@d177 it's definitely not kind but it sounds like he only stole enough to survive it's not like he did so out of greed. You don't have to like someone to be impressed by them.
His story is something ive used as an example for the disappearance and death of my Grandfather. Everyone EXCEPT the head of the police department ( The one person with the power AND a mutual frenemy of my family in that area ) believes he was murdered. He was on his way to pick up his kids for a visitation and was never seen again. His jaw bone was found in the mountains after almost 2ish years and they IMMEDIATELY called it death by elements/animals and closed his case. There is so much wrong with this case that is going on 30+ years cold ( ' closed ' ) My grandfather grew up and LIVED in those woods, chopped down those trees and hunted his own meat. He knew it better than his own kids probably, anywho. Around the time theyd halted searching the mountains was once the 6 + months of below freezing winter started. Our family took helicopters over the mountains searching for him. All we found was his jaw that had looked like it was shot off, not chewed off .
One time when I was a kid I was in a forest on my bike. I saw a couple squirrels looking at me while eating nuts. One of the scariest moments of my life. They looked like they were ready to attack me
One that I have witnessed (I live in England) is that there was a tent and me and my friends went to investigate. The tent, which looked all ruined and destroyed, was set up in a clearing hard to get to. But, what was most weird was the items around the tent: a knife, cans, a box which was locked, a small cage and something that we thought was drugs. That was when we left as we did not want to get near the drugs, which smelt so bad. Also, this was really near to my house... By the way, I love your videos.
I swear to god I need more. You’re the best real life horror channel around on YT. I’ve binge watched your videos so many times. I hope we’ll see more soon !!!
I gotta hand it to you man your videos always give me at least a few stories I haven't heard a thousand times. Kudos for that especially in this over saturated genre, just wish you would upload more often.
You've gotta be careful in forests, because you may not know what's in there. If you don't know what's in those forests, then you've gotta watch your back, shoulder, and everything you have on you or with you, because you may not know what's out there. But remember, advice for adventure seekers, be careful of your surroundings, at all times. Because that's just some good advice.
Good, situational awareness is SEVERELY LACKING IN 90% OF PPL...they just walk around oblivious to every potential threat around them. Cover your asp mate.🖨️💯🧔🏾♂️
8:45 - My family had a cottage on North Pond in Maine where Christopher Knight was active. It was a local legend of a hermit living in the woods, I never believed it - I always thought it was someone locally, probably of limited means who just stole what they needed and blended in with the local populace. NO WAY someone would live outside continuously in the woods like that during winter - for years - I thought. I was wrong and amazed the day my mom called me when they caught the hermit. He did hit our place once, very clever the State Police did not know how he did it. Admittedly, I spent more than one night out there staking it out to catch him, not to intentionally hurt or kill the man but just to get him arrested. I'm glad he was arrested because it wasn't so much what he took (things of limited value, really) but the fact that you never know what someone is capable of doing to get away with being caught when facing arrest and prison.
I'm from Maine too, further south, and I remember it being all over the news that they caught the guy. He wrote a book about his experiences too. It's wild!
Thb this guy doesn't sound that dangerous. If he wanted he could have stolen valuables or even harmed people. All he decided was to take bare minimum amount of food and clothing. I appreciate the people who sent him food and supplies. Sometimes I wonder if he was involved in some secret mission / spy / underworld stuff which is why he decided to take shelter in the woods ..
@@lawson9102 I got the book from my library. It was written by a reporter who took interest in the case and met the guy personally in jail. It's a wild read. Don't remember the name sorry.
That moment when you discover an amazing channel like Chilling Scares and thank god you live in this period of time. Genius content, amazing narration. Thank you thank you thank you for this channel!
The stench of that family decaying was so strong it reached a half mile down and was overbearing enough that people couldn’t breathe. That is insane. Imagine how bad it was in person at the location.
As someone who lives in the south, the most creepy thing you can find while exploring the woods is a meth lab or a grow house. My friends and I stumbled upon 2 of these while exploring the Ozark National Forest in AR. One was a house in a valleys MILES from anything with nothing but a human hiking trail leading to it.
Was in the Ouachita national forest off highway 7 a couple years ago for memorial day weekend. Wife and I were setting up camp and there was some unsettling individuals around who def weren't camping. Went to leave a while later and there was large branches and small tree blocking the trail out. It was dark and we got out to move it, all of a sudden we hear footsteps running up from behind off the road. We got it moved and jumped in the car but yeah, Arkansas woods can be horrifying. I'd gone up there a thousand times over the years but since then, can't bring myself to go back. There was a lot of unsettling and creepy stuff that trip but those footsteps running up stuck with us both
I wandered into a local forest preserve one time, far off the path where anyone would go. I was pretty deep into the forest, it would take around 20 minutes to get where I was. I found a weird, old, thing of barbed wire. It was wrapped around in circles, I can’t explain exactly what it was like. I do have a picture of it, but I still don’t know what it was about. I have the location on the picture, and one day when the forest isn’t all overgrown like it is in the summer, and is less infested with bugs, I may visit it again. Edit: Me and some buddies went in a couple more times. We found car parts, a decent distance away from the road and heavy enough to the point where just heavy winds would never blow them all that far. We found even more barbed wire in a couple other spots, and rediscovered the one I found last year. We also found what looked to be a trail cam strapped to a tree and some buckets that I have no idea what purpose they had. We’re planning on going back again. Who knows what we’ll find.
I used to live in Harlan, KY and a close family member used to work with Sawaf. My job is also connected to this story. Didn't expect to hear this one on your channel.
My brothers, almost killed my oldest older - by hanging a huge, 200 lb log in the trees. Now, my older brother was known to chase them into the woods-and smack them around. So, they prepared it to release when a trip wire was triggered. If oldest bro hadn’t ducked in blink of an eye, he probably would’ve been hurt. They were all younger, and didn’t realize how bad it could’ve turned out.
That one poor guy new when he was young that he just didn't want to be around people or in society. I don't condone stealing, but he wasn't violent. I'm glad that the court was easy on him.
The prime suspect in the Robison mass murder got to remain free simply by managing to dispose of the weapons, despite the fact that it was proven he was the one who bought them. Inconceivable to think about the things that killers and other criminals got away with before DNA evidence could be used in court.
Tbh there are many disturbing things that can be found in any forest or a deep hill such as rusty weapons, items that have or haven't been used, tents that are placed in suspicious locations, lost ID cards, abandoned vehicles and houses that may be vacant, some serial killer that could be lurking, traps and especially corpses of decomposed homeless people.
I always loved to see upon some many discoveries that have been found upon throughout this video especially within the locations of parks and deep within the woods as there are some intentions of these to be found in these sort of secluded areas far away from any signs of civilisation
My father was chucker hunting outside of Lewiston, Idaho and got a bird. It fell off a cliff, so my dad took what looked like an old game trail that traversed down the cliffside. When he turned the corner, he found an old shack clinging to the side of the hill. He went inside and looked around. It had obviously been abandoned years ago, as this was in the 1970's and the magazines laying around were from the 1930's. He was fascinated by it, but was more interested in chucker hunting. He never went back to see it again.
Wow a great channel with so many great pieces of content covering so many genres - gives us smaller true crimes channels some inspiration - keep up the great work!
If I walk into the forest and see an abandoned suitcase, I'm 100% assuming there's a dead body inside, no way in gell I'd open it. Nah. I'd call someone right away 😭
Totally agree with you mate !! It's almost guaranteed to be a dead body in the suitcase AND NOT MONEY !! ( Which is probably why so many silly people open a suitcase...greed !! )
6:28 As soon as I heard this man had found a metal ball in the ground I immediately knew what it was and my heart was in my throat listening to the rest of the story…
I went to a party in some small town a while ago. All the kids decided to play hide and seek in the field and forest surrounding the house. I was with a group of 5 kids and we ran up this hill. At the top of the hill there was a circle of dirty diapers around a black and white photo of a baby. We all ran back screaming and tried to tell the parents but no one believed us. When my friends and i talked about it years later only three or four of them seemed to remember. It still freaks me out lol.
I wish we had Batman to uncover these cases and serve justice cause it's scary that there are people roaming among us who did these things and can do it again .
I live in the backwoods of Tennessee and had issues with people trespassing to poach on my land. I went to the local thrift store and bought a bunch of old dolls, I then had fun burning them so they look extra creepy and proceeded to hang them all around the area the people were crossing onto our woods, we have not had issues since then. When no trespassing signs and fencing don’t work get creative and creepy and people will scare themselves out of coming there. Honestly they should have been more worried about the trespassers will be shot signs in my opinion. People are dumb and scared of the wrong thing sometimes. Stay safe people, always carry and stay vigilant. Hope y’all have a great day and God bless!
Sometimes I forget that people can put whatever they want outside in a public space as long if no one notices. Thats scary dude, makes me a little more paranoid when hiking and camping 💀
I live in Harlan county and remember this! That is def not the worst thing that has been found in the woods. I can tell you of one that will make your skin crawl it’s so disturbing.
After watching the entire video, I read comments js to know the amount of knowledge people have abt these events and their opinions and concerns because y I'm saying is wen I read I feel like I'm listening to the person live whose comment I am reading...its like connecting to them through comments ..it feels like we r all fnds here talking to each other...its a warm feeling

I Unfortently destroyed part of it. Thankfully the rest of it survived..man the woods can play tricks on you sometimes.
EDIT/Update: I forgot to mention this. It is important that i do. This happened back in 2014 or so. My family and I moved last year in october. Last year around September, before we had to move, i actually tried to look for the tree. It was gone..I mean gone...vanished! There was no longer a root where it was. There were no tracks or cut marks or any signs that a person chopped it down. To this day I honestly think it was something else, and one day it pulled itself out of the ground and walked away. The land we used to live on actually used to belong to native americans.
That was a great story. I have to admit I was actually thinking oh my God and then went straight to laughing. It had suspense, drama and comedy for such a short story. Good job. Btw did you ever find the dog?
I was expecting you to say you fucked up your dog LOL
🤣🤣🤣🤣
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Sorry for laughing mate but that was feckin hilarious and I hope the tree will eventually recover from it's arse kicking !! 😉😂😂👍👍🍻🤣
The case where the teen was found stuffed into a chimney of a unused cabin, in a way that had to of included a other person.... Really gets to me. Literally the kids clothes were found inside the cabin, yet the chimney was sealed up and it makes zero sense that if he was in the cabin, that he would go out, try to get back in the cabin thru the chimney, naked, and then it's impossible that all the things would be shut and closed behind him, by him, then he dies in the chimney by his own hand? No way!
I love the woods. I grew up in southern VA on the border with NC. My family owns around 30 acres on the edge of a massive forest that runs all the way back to the mountains. Woods are absolutely gorgeous, surreal, can be quite unsettling. I love walking them at night, but I've definitely heard and seen some very strange, eerie things while on my treks.
What are some experiences?
@@eon7722 One of the craziest things to happen was something growling, throwing rocks at me. Eyes glowed red and stood at least 8 feet high. I had a short barreled 12 ga loaded up with 00 buck but I felt like I might as well have been carrying a nerf gun...
I live near Roanoke!
What is va or nc? I don't understand
Appalachians are very scary to live in
I just want to say I absolutely love that there's 2 Mr Nightmares on UA-cam now. You both kick ass!
Yes sir there really cool the 2 goats 🐐
There’s only 1. And he’s arguably better. But Scares is really good too.
@@ronindagdarose940 it’s literally him swear it’s his second channel they post around same days😅🤣
Sorry mr nightmare no longer has the leverage it once had over quality content...this channel takes the cake without miss.
@@Die-Angst wtf????
Can’t believe those freaking teens. “We set those traps for animals.”
HOW STUPID DO
YOU THINK WE ARE?! 😡
Ikr you don't make a trip wire to trip a grizzly bear into 5 sticks 😂
They are not "freaky teens" , they are killer psychopaths.
@@alexmcginnis1 Exactly! Correct me if I'm wrong (I'm not a hunter/trapper just using basic logic), but trip wire leading into above ground spikes are NOT meant for 4 legged creatures as they have a lower center of gravity and don't topple over as easily, like us bipedal creatures with a higher center of gravity
Those kids essentially made vietcong traps for "animals"
A variant of Punji sticks for God sake! Except this time above ground. And that spike ball trap too
@@xcharlesbronsonx not to mention a grizzly would just run straight through the thin trip wire 😂
A more disturbing thought: What if they were referring to humans as animals

Hell yea, I’m all caught up in Mr. Ballens videos and now I have a new content creator to binge on. I love this kind of content
I prefer this over a guy just stood in front of his camera, but i like the variety on mrballens stories
The story of that Christopher dude is both disturbing and fascinating...!
27 years in the forests, I mean that's almost unbelievable.
There are people who have/are living in the bush of Alaska for decades.....without stealing. It can be done.
😇
As always, you give us really amazing creepy stories, with perfect narration voice.
A huge respect to you from Egypt where there's no forests! ^^
No forests and exactly where I would love to be ❤
why not live there then@@victoriabrown2534
Wait... was that a pun at the end? "A freezer was found half-buried in the snow. The police classified the case as cold."
Lol
😯...............👏 .............👏..........👏
About the Christopher Knight story. Living in Maine I can tell you that fairly often winter temps go well below 10 degrees Fahrenheit. Sometimes the temps will be below 0 F for days at a time. The fact that he even survived so long in the woods in those conditions, not to mention not even getting frostbite, is actually very impressive. Just saying.
Every time I hear of someone dying to exposure I always think back on Knight and how it was possible for him to stay alive out in the maine winters.
I kinda want him to not get arrested and continue to live like that until he dies. 27 years only to get caught by the police.
He sounds like a complete a**hole. Breaking into peoples places to steal supplies & food. That’s not cool or impressive.
@@d177 it's definitely not kind but it sounds like he only stole enough to survive it's not like he did so out of greed.
You don't have to like someone to be impressed by them.
His story is something ive used as an example for the disappearance and death of my Grandfather. Everyone EXCEPT the head of the police department ( The one person with the power AND a mutual frenemy of my family in that area ) believes he was murdered.
He was on his way to pick up his kids for a visitation and was never seen again. His jaw bone was found in the mountains after almost 2ish years and they IMMEDIATELY called it death by elements/animals and closed his case. There is so much wrong with this case that is going on 30+ years cold ( ' closed ' ) My grandfather grew up and LIVED in those woods, chopped down those trees and hunted his own meat. He knew it better than his own kids probably, anywho. Around the time theyd halted searching the mountains was once the 6 + months of below freezing winter started. Our family took helicopters over the mountains searching for him. All we found was his jaw that had looked like it was shot off, not chewed off .
Here in Spain is usual to find unexploded artefacts from the Civil War. You can find them in the forests and even in some beaches along the country.
It is in the East/South of the US too. There are some metal detecting channels on UA-cam that show what they find! Pretty cool
Why is it common in Spain if the war was in the US lol just asking
@@Jett_Da_GoatThe Spanish Civil War dawg
One time when I was a kid I was in a forest on my bike. I saw a couple squirrels looking at me while eating nuts. One of the scariest moments of my life. They looked like they were ready to attack me
💀
🤓
One that I have witnessed (I live in England) is that there was a tent and me and my friends went to investigate. The tent, which looked all ruined and destroyed, was set up in a clearing hard to get to. But, what was most weird was the items around the tent: a knife, cans, a box which was locked, a small cage and something that we thought was drugs. That was when we left as we did not want to get near the drugs, which smelt so bad. Also, this was really near to my house...
By the way, I love your videos.
Not sure what the climate on homelessness is in England, but sounds like an old homeless person's camp lol
Aside from pcp and weed drugs don’t have any odor unless smoked. If it was drugs it was likely meth that was recently smoked.
This is one of my favorite videos of yours, I'm loving how you're now using real pics and or videos with a lot of your stories. Just awrsoome!
I swear to god I need more. You’re the best real life horror channel around on YT. I’ve binge watched your videos so many times. I hope we’ll see more soon !!!
Quality > Quantity
Same! Mr nightmare too!!
This has become one of my favorite channels the past couple days damn near watched every video
I gotta hand it to you man your videos always give me at least a few stories I haven't heard a thousand times. Kudos for that especially in this over saturated genre, just wish you would upload more often.
You've gotta be careful in forests, because you may not know what's in there. If you don't know what's in those forests, then you've gotta watch your back, shoulder, and everything you have on you or with you, because you may not know what's out there. But remember, advice for adventure seekers, be careful of your surroundings, at all times. Because that's just some good advice.
Yeah, you might also step on a shit in a forest☝️
No sh*t, Sherlock.
Was that a compliment or a lecture?
There's thousands of dangerous felons and criminals living in the forests already.
How do people think they stay hidden for such a long time...
@@joemac1290 I know arthur morgan and his crew hides in the forest
I love your channel. No BS, just facts. Sometimes, just reporting what happened is far scarier than trying to hype up things.
I love hiking and have never encountered anything like this before. I’m dreading the day I do and will start hiking with much more awareness now.
Good, situational awareness is SEVERELY LACKING IN 90% OF PPL...they just walk around oblivious to every potential threat around them. Cover your asp mate.🖨️💯🧔🏾♂️
My chilling scare senses are tingling! Thanks for the new vid!!
8:45 - My family had a cottage on North Pond in Maine where Christopher Knight was active. It was a local legend of a hermit living in the woods, I never believed it - I always thought it was someone locally, probably of limited means who just stole what they needed and blended in with the local populace. NO WAY someone would live outside continuously in the woods like that during winter - for years - I thought. I was wrong and amazed the day my mom called me when they caught the hermit. He did hit our place once, very clever the State Police did not know how he did it. Admittedly, I spent more than one night out there staking it out to catch him, not to intentionally hurt or kill the man but just to get him arrested. I'm glad he was arrested because it wasn't so much what he took (things of limited value, really) but the fact that you never know what someone is capable of doing to get away with being caught when facing arrest and prison.
I'm from Maine too, further south, and I remember it being all over the news that they caught the guy. He wrote a book about his experiences too. It's wild!
Thb this guy doesn't sound that dangerous. If he wanted he could have stolen valuables or even harmed people. All he decided was to take bare minimum amount of food and clothing. I appreciate the people who sent him food and supplies.
Sometimes I wonder if he was involved in some secret mission / spy / underworld stuff which is why he decided to take shelter in the woods ..
@@6thgraderfriends do you remember the name of the book
@@lawson9102 I got the book from my library. It was written by a reporter who took interest in the case and met the guy personally in jail. It's a wild read. Don't remember the name sorry.
@@6thgraderfriends ok Thank you
That moment when you discover an amazing channel like Chilling Scares and thank god you live in this period of time. Genius content, amazing narration. Thank you thank you thank you for this channel!
This dude never disappoints!!!
@@Die-Angst There always needs to be a hater
Besides everything the only thing I like about this channel is it
*IT IS ACTUALLY CREEPY/UNSETTLING/SCARY*
The stench of that family decaying was so strong it reached a half mile down and was overbearing enough that people couldn’t breathe. That is insane. Imagine how bad it was in person at the location.
😱 wow what a shockingly chilling list, may the victims rest in peace, 🙏 another interesting video thanks 🖤

Yep, this guy definitely got a new subscriber. I love horror stories and this guy is a good narrator.😌
Was not expecting to hear the Alaska freezer story on a major channel - good job on this video!
As someone who lives in the south, the most creepy thing you can find while exploring the woods is a meth lab or a grow house. My friends and I stumbled upon 2 of these while exploring the Ozark National Forest in AR. One was a house in a valleys MILES from anything with nothing but a human hiking trail leading to it.
Was in the Ouachita national forest off highway 7 a couple years ago for memorial day weekend. Wife and I were setting up camp and there was some unsettling individuals around who def weren't camping. Went to leave a while later and there was large branches and small tree blocking the trail out. It was dark and we got out to move it, all of a sudden we hear footsteps running up from behind off the road. We got it moved and jumped in the car but yeah, Arkansas woods can be horrifying. I'd gone up there a thousand times over the years but since then, can't bring myself to go back. There was a lot of unsettling and creepy stuff that trip but those footsteps running up stuck with us both
I wandered into a local forest preserve one time, far off the path where anyone would go. I was pretty deep into the forest, it would take around 20 minutes to get where I was. I found a weird, old, thing of barbed wire. It was wrapped around in circles, I can’t explain exactly what it was like. I do have a picture of it, but I still don’t know what it was about. I have the location on the picture, and one day when the forest isn’t all overgrown like it is in the summer, and is less infested with bugs, I may visit it again.
Edit: Me and some buddies went in a couple more times. We found car parts, a decent distance away from the road and heavy enough to the point where just heavy winds would never blow them all that far. We found even more barbed wire in a couple other spots, and rediscovered the one I found last year. We also found what looked to be a trail cam strapped to a tree and some buckets that I have no idea what purpose they had. We’re planning on going back again. Who knows what we’ll find.
Be very careful... otherwise you could end up as " Missing 411 " !!
Yikes... there's a lot of nutters and cryptids and UFO's in the forests !!
Interesting
It very well may have been a campsite. The buckets were most likely slop buckets. 🤢
😇
You upload such good videos. Eventhough, I scare 😱 myself every time can't stop watching. Thanks for creating these.
Lol "good vibes" he's all talking about murders and people that died wtf lol
@@icantthinkofaname15lol I know 😆😁😂
Always a good day when Chilling Scares uploads.
Gonna listen to this while I go to garage sales
I love garage sales!! Hope you get some good finds
@@Madilynne-AP Thank you I hope so too
lol
Imagine if he uploads a video about scary garage sale stories while your walking to the garage sale
@@NeonZXK4472 that would suck
You know it’s a good day when chilling scares uploads
Your narration is great! So many channels overdo the narration and sound pompous, but you strike the perfect tone! Creepy! Keep up the good work!
You need to make more videos like this! Photo proof as well, as video proof! Great video! Keep at it Chilling! 👌
I used to live in Harlan, KY and a close family member used to work with Sawaf. My job is also connected to this story. Didn't expect to hear this one on your channel.
Can you do most disturbing texts messages ever received?....I really love your channel
My brothers, almost killed my oldest older - by hanging a huge, 200 lb log in the trees. Now, my older brother was known to chase them into the woods-and smack them around. So, they prepared it to release when a trip wire was triggered. If oldest bro hadn’t ducked in blink of an eye, he probably would’ve been hurt. They were all younger, and didn’t realize how bad it could’ve turned out.
Bro what's ur pfp
That one poor guy new when he was young that he just didn't want to be around people or in society. I don't condone stealing, but he wasn't violent. I'm glad that the court was easy on him.
The prime suspect in the Robison mass murder got to remain free simply by managing to dispose of the weapons, despite the fact that it was proven he was the one who bought them. Inconceivable to think about the things that killers and other criminals got away with before DNA evidence could be used in court.
It's equally horrifying how many innocent people were incarcerated and worse, put to death before DNA evidence became a thing.
Tbh there are many disturbing things that can be found in any forest or a deep hill such as rusty weapons, items that have or haven't been used, tents that are placed in suspicious locations, lost ID cards, abandoned vehicles and houses that may be vacant, some serial killer that could be lurking, traps and especially corpses of decomposed homeless people.
I always loved to see upon some many discoveries that have been found upon throughout this video especially within the locations of parks and deep within the woods as there are some intentions of these to be found in these sort of secluded areas far away from any signs of civilisation
I see you everywhere 💀💀 hola
My father was chucker hunting outside of Lewiston, Idaho and got a bird. It fell off a cliff, so my dad took what looked like an old game trail that traversed down the cliffside. When he turned the corner, he found an old shack clinging to the side of the hill. He went inside and looked around. It had obviously been abandoned years ago, as this was in the 1970's and the magazines laying around were from the 1930's. He was fascinated by it, but was more interested in chucker hunting. He never went back to see it again.
PLEASE DO MORE OF THESE FOREST VIDEOS. you make the best ones
Wow a great channel with so many great pieces of content covering so many genres - gives us smaller true crimes channels some inspiration - keep up the great work!
If I walk into the forest and see an abandoned suitcase, I'm 100% assuming there's a dead body inside, no way in gell I'd open it. Nah. I'd call someone right away 😭
Totally agree with you mate !! It's almost guaranteed to be a dead body in the suitcase AND NOT MONEY !! ( Which is probably why so many silly people open a suitcase...greed !! )
Honestly I'd think body or bomb. I don't just go open stuff. I've heard too much
Or money
Just started rewatching your videos been enjoying them
Exceptionally good selection of cases. You're amazing!
Imagine identifying an active landmine and just... letting someone go home with it lmao
Yo congrats on almost 500k keep it up your videos are awesome!
I love these types of forest related videos the most!
Stories like these are why it's always a good idea to never hike alone.
Always good to see uploads from you and Mr. Nightmare! Never fails. 🔥🖤
just found this channel, already planning my day to binge watch the entire channel lol
Great video Chilling Scares. Well done💯💯💯💖💖💖
Congrats on 500k!!!! Keep it up!!
Please continue with the scary things found in forests, I really like them
First time viewer of your channel, loved this, thankyou 👍
6:28 As soon as I heard this man had found a metal ball in the ground I immediately knew what it was and my heart was in my throat listening to the rest of the story…
yeah it was lame it didnt even explode in my friends face when he found it
i love these videos they always give me the chills on rainy nights
I went to a party in some small town a while ago. All the kids decided to play hide and seek in the field and forest surrounding the house. I was with a group of 5 kids and we ran up this hill. At the top of the hill there was a circle of dirty diapers around a black and white photo of a baby.
We all ran back screaming and tried to tell the parents but no one believed us.
When my friends and i talked about it years later only three or four of them seemed to remember. It still freaks me out lol.
The sound effects you use are what make these stories exciting and perhaps scary. Great work
Ngl your voice is so soothing.
I love Chilling Scares. He makes high-quality videos.
8:45 There’s a decent book about Christopher Knight called The Stranger in the Woods by Michael Finkel. Pretty interesting
My Uncle Rick is a Vietnam Veteran, and can say that, those traps in the forest, in the beginning, look like the ones in the jungles!
That's it. I'm not going out anymore. Just binge watching Chilling Scares.
Keep up these great videos! You deserve 1 million subs!
As a person who lives in Kentucky, and someone who love trails, I'm genuinely scared
I wish we had Batman to uncover these cases and serve justice cause it's scary that there are people roaming among us who did these things and can do it again .
I dress as Batman whenever someone tells me to dress for the job that I want, not the job that I have.
.... I hope this was written by a child lol.
@@Vespyr_ what you don't like batman he's the best detective out there XD LOL
Those first two young "gentlemen" watched way too many Vietnam War movies.
Just glad those fuccersdidnt kill anybody tbh.

I live in the backwoods of Tennessee and had issues with people trespassing to poach on my land. I went to the local thrift store and bought a bunch of old dolls, I then had fun burning them so they look extra creepy and proceeded to hang them all around the area the people were crossing onto our woods, we have not had issues since then. When no trespassing signs and fencing don’t work get creative and creepy and people will scare themselves out of coming there. Honestly they should have been more worried about the trespassers will be shot signs in my opinion. People are dumb and scared of the wrong thing sometimes. Stay safe people, always carry and stay vigilant.
Hope y’all have a great day and God bless!
lol
You need a podcast😭 your voice is perfect
chilling scares is slept on fr
I want to put you onto one of these videos
What a great episode. Jaw dropping stories. WOW.
Sometimes I forget that people can put whatever they want outside in a public space as long if no one notices. Thats scary dude, makes me a little more paranoid when hiking and camping 💀
I live in Harlan county and remember this! That is def not the worst thing that has been found in the woods. I can tell you of one that will make your skin crawl it’s so disturbing.
Well... Do tell!
Imagine being a weirdo who decides to live in the woods and steal from nearby houses. Creep
A man found in a freezer in Alaska?
Now that's what I call a cold case!
After watching the entire video, I read comments js to know the amount of knowledge people have abt these events and their opinions and concerns because y I'm saying is wen I read I feel like I'm listening to the person live whose comment I am reading...its like connecting to them through comments ..it feels like we r all fnds here talking to each other...its a warm feeling
