1
00:00:05.400 --> 00:00:08.640
Luke, can you hear me?
Yes, I can. He's sounding you

2
00:00:08.679 --> 00:00:11.960
sound good? You had our fresh
haircut, you're you're you're ready to get

3
00:00:12.000 --> 00:00:16.519
scarier. Did have the haircut last
time? I good a couple of weeks.

4
00:00:17.160 --> 00:00:19.640
I've had a haircutting, so long, man, how you doing,

5
00:00:19.719 --> 00:00:23.679
dude? Good good? Somebody wants
to know if you walked your cat tonight.

6
00:00:23.719 --> 00:00:26.359
He actually just walked the cat before
we got on it. Yeah,

7
00:00:26.480 --> 00:00:29.199
yeah, he was being a real
asshole. Do want to come back in?

8
00:00:29.719 --> 00:00:32.280
So? Yeah, this is your
Scary Stories, the show where we

9
00:00:32.439 --> 00:00:37.679
live stream and share your scary stories
live live on the air. Luke,

10
00:00:38.079 --> 00:00:42.880
It's like I'm on the radio.
You walk your cat all over you man?

11
00:00:43.280 --> 00:00:47.520
Well, okay, so he claims
he has a dog, but I

12
00:00:47.719 --> 00:00:52.479
just believe personally he's probably walking the
cat. He's in denial. I just

13
00:00:52.520 --> 00:00:55.359
don't know if he's seeing things like
he just thinks it's the dog. But

14
00:00:55.479 --> 00:00:58.320
yeah, yeah, so everybody's calm. Many they're saying hello, Yeah,

15
00:00:58.359 --> 00:01:02.520
thanks for joining us live. Where's
Jack? Jack is doing some behind the

16
00:01:02.520 --> 00:01:07.599
scenes stuff for Jeff Townsend Media,
so it he's helping produce the podcasts.

17
00:01:07.640 --> 00:01:11.560
That's what Jack's up to. Thank
you. For asking how many stories we

18
00:01:11.560 --> 00:01:15.280
add tonight? I think we have
six in total. I think you said,

19
00:01:15.319 --> 00:01:19.000
yeah, three, I have three. Not only do I have three,

20
00:01:19.079 --> 00:01:21.840
actually have one with some video on
it. So I'm super excited.

21
00:01:21.879 --> 00:01:26.400
I'm super I'm just absolutely thrilled to
share that one. So yeah, comment

22
00:01:26.439 --> 00:01:30.760
along, join us whatever platform you're
on. We're live across eight different platforms.

23
00:01:30.760 --> 00:01:37.000
I think Instagram, TikTok, YouTube
of course, Twitter, Facebook,

24
00:01:37.439 --> 00:01:41.159
Twitch. What am I missing?
I don't know everywhere they get the point

25
00:01:41.159 --> 00:01:44.120
across. I guess everywhere. Yeah, am I going to start off like

26
00:01:44.159 --> 00:01:47.000
always tonight? You think yeah?
I think, well it's all for me,

27
00:01:47.560 --> 00:01:51.280
so as always, we I didn't
get stories that are consistent with each

28
00:01:51.319 --> 00:01:53.599
other, which I think I probably
need to get better at. You're pretty

29
00:01:53.599 --> 00:01:57.319
good about that. You're getting a
little better at that. I just kind

30
00:01:57.319 --> 00:01:59.879
of have mine all over the place. Saw'll stick to that, true,

31
00:02:00.239 --> 00:02:01.840
I guess could hear it? Okay, hopefully that I'll send him two?

32
00:02:01.959 --> 00:02:05.840
Hopefully does sounded like a good volume? Oh yeah, that sounds good to

33
00:02:05.879 --> 00:02:07.000
me. Okay, we'll go ahead
and get it. Go in here.

34
00:02:07.599 --> 00:02:14.159
So this is called Scary Babysitter Story. So I read wolf twenty one one

35
00:02:14.240 --> 00:02:16.080
read Wolf twenty one. Thank you
for sharing the story, so we'll jump

36
00:02:16.080 --> 00:02:20.759
into it here. I said goodbye
to my mom as I hung out the

37
00:02:20.800 --> 00:02:23.680
phone and walked up the stairs to
Tyler's house, the kid who I'd be

38
00:02:23.759 --> 00:02:27.520
babysitting. I greeted his mom at
the door. She was in a hurry.

39
00:02:27.800 --> 00:02:30.240
She had told me everything over the
phone that she needed to tell me

40
00:02:30.319 --> 00:02:34.120
so she could leave as soon as
I got there. She hurried at the

41
00:02:34.120 --> 00:02:37.680
cab out front and headed off to
the airport. Tyler was five years old

42
00:02:37.680 --> 00:02:39.560
and had autism, so I knew
watching him was going to be a bit

43
00:02:39.599 --> 00:02:44.199
of a challenge, and at first
I had to get myself accustomed to Tyler's

44
00:02:44.240 --> 00:02:46.639
behavior in ways of interacting. But
I got used to it and I learned

45
00:02:46.680 --> 00:02:51.280
to accommodate him. I would hear
him talking to himself in a lot of

46
00:02:51.280 --> 00:02:54.599
different rooms. Usually I would assume
he was playing, but sometimes it seemed

47
00:02:54.639 --> 00:02:59.599
like he was literally just talking to
himself. I'd be watching Tyler for the

48
00:02:59.599 --> 00:03:05.520
whole week. On the first night, I woke up to Tyler laughing outside

49
00:03:05.599 --> 00:03:08.599
of the room I was sleeping in, so I thought this was pretty weird.

50
00:03:09.560 --> 00:03:13.960
I was confused because I saw the
bedroom door open in the room of

51
00:03:13.960 --> 00:03:15.400
the yes room I was sleeping in, and I knew for sure I had

52
00:03:15.439 --> 00:03:19.479
closed it. I went to see
where Tyler was. I heard his laughter

53
00:03:19.560 --> 00:03:23.080
coming from his bedroom. A crack
and the wood floor made from me walking

54
00:03:23.520 --> 00:03:28.639
made his laughter instantly stop, and
then the light in his room suddenly went

55
00:03:28.759 --> 00:03:30.879
dark, and I heard him dive
back into bed and pull the blanket silver.

56
00:03:31.360 --> 00:03:36.680
I wasn't even halfway across the hall
yet, I still calling out Tyler,

57
00:03:36.919 --> 00:03:38.599
stay in bed. Then at that
point in time, I decided I

58
00:03:38.639 --> 00:03:42.800
got my poy across, so I
went back to sleep. The next day,

59
00:03:42.960 --> 00:03:45.759
I asked him what he was doing. I couldn't get much more of

60
00:03:45.759 --> 00:03:49.199
a response out of him than I
don't remember. For the rest of the

61
00:03:49.280 --> 00:03:52.080
day, I tried to play games
and watch TV with him. He seemed

62
00:03:52.080 --> 00:03:55.000
more interested and playing in his room
upstairs, though, so I let him

63
00:03:55.000 --> 00:04:00.919
be and I watched TV by myself
basically until the sun went down, minus

64
00:04:00.919 --> 00:04:04.960
making dinner another few small chores.
Eventually the time came for bed, I

65
00:04:05.080 --> 00:04:09.400
tucked Tyler in, making sure to
tell him to stay in his bed.

66
00:04:09.439 --> 00:04:13.719
This time. I went to sleep
no more than an hour later, once

67
00:04:13.759 --> 00:04:17.040
again, I was woken up by
a noise. It was the sound of

68
00:04:17.120 --> 00:04:23.439
giggling. Then I heard whispering.
It had to be Tyler. I sat

69
00:04:23.519 --> 00:04:27.839
up, rubbed my eyes and looked
around the room. Tyler, I called

70
00:04:27.839 --> 00:04:30.879
out, there was giggling again.
It came from across the room. I

71
00:04:31.000 --> 00:04:35.079
was in the guest bedroom. I
sat up in bed and I flipped on

72
00:04:35.120 --> 00:04:39.920
the lamp real quick, and there
was Tyler sitting in the closet with the

73
00:04:39.959 --> 00:04:45.079
door slid halfway oh open, revealing
only half of his face. Half to

74
00:04:45.120 --> 00:04:46.800
admit, it was a disturbing thing
to witness at two in the morning.

75
00:04:47.480 --> 00:04:51.160
The shade and angle of the light
hitting him where it hit his face made

76
00:04:51.160 --> 00:04:55.800
it even more disturbing. I got
up and went over to pull him out

77
00:04:55.800 --> 00:04:59.439
of the closet. I was upset
with him, and I let him know

78
00:04:59.519 --> 00:05:01.839
it. I brought him back to
his bed and asked him why he did

79
00:05:01.879 --> 00:05:09.120
that. His response was very unsettling. He said, Honey told me to.

80
00:05:11.240 --> 00:05:13.879
I asked him who Tony was.
He said it was the man in

81
00:05:13.920 --> 00:05:17.920
the closet he was talking to.
My heart skipped to be as he said

82
00:05:17.920 --> 00:05:24.160
this. Still I knew it just
had to be his imagination running wild.

83
00:05:25.360 --> 00:05:27.879
I told him to stay in bed
for real this time, or there would

84
00:05:27.920 --> 00:05:31.480
be consequences. I went back to
my guest room and shut the door.

85
00:05:32.759 --> 00:05:36.560
As I laid in bed, I
thought about what Tyler had said about the

86
00:05:36.560 --> 00:05:41.199
man in the closet, and I
thought, why would he say that.

87
00:05:42.439 --> 00:05:45.839
I laid on my side for the
longest time, tried my best to clear

88
00:05:45.879 --> 00:05:48.759
my head and just go to sleep. I wanted to just go to sleep,

89
00:05:48.879 --> 00:05:54.600
but there was a sudden sound something
hitting the closet door. It almost

90
00:05:54.639 --> 00:05:58.560
sounded like somebody had a body part, like a knee or something bumped the

91
00:05:58.600 --> 00:06:01.399
closet door. Didn't sounded like a
heavy object falling onto the door rather than

92
00:06:01.480 --> 00:06:06.759
just a bump. Again, assuming
I called out Tyler's name, Tyler,

93
00:06:08.519 --> 00:06:12.879
hoping it was just him playing games
again. Me saying his name went unanswered.

94
00:06:13.720 --> 00:06:17.319
So now I called out Tyler even
louder, loud enough for him to

95
00:06:17.360 --> 00:06:21.160
hear me across the hall in his
room. He called back, yes,

96
00:06:23.360 --> 00:06:27.079
but he came from down the hall. His answer, I could hear he

97
00:06:27.240 --> 00:06:30.800
was in his room. At that
moment, I jumped up out of bed

98
00:06:30.800 --> 00:06:32.600
and I ran to Tyler's room to
get him out of his bed. I

99
00:06:32.680 --> 00:06:35.600
carried him to the bathroom, where
we hid and we called the cops.

100
00:06:36.199 --> 00:06:39.879
I stayed on the line with the
nine to one to one operator, only

101
00:06:39.879 --> 00:06:44.240
whispering occasionally that we were still okay
to the operator until the cops finally banged

102
00:06:44.279 --> 00:06:46.720
on the door downstairs. I heard
them open the front door, which was

103
00:06:46.800 --> 00:06:50.879
weird because this front door should have
been locked. They shouted police, to

104
00:06:50.920 --> 00:06:55.680
which I responded by running with Tyler
in my arms, to the living room.

105
00:06:56.279 --> 00:07:00.319
The rest of the story is history. The intruder in the closet who

106
00:07:00.680 --> 00:07:03.600
was talking to Tyler must have walked
out the front door by the next day.

107
00:07:03.680 --> 00:07:08.199
That was the end of me in
that family. I don't know whatever

108
00:07:08.240 --> 00:07:12.319
happened after that, but I hope
whoever was in that closet never returned.

109
00:07:15.040 --> 00:07:20.639
You have a couple of stories that
we've heard people being hidden in the house.

110
00:07:21.319 --> 00:07:25.639
Actually, there was the one with
the uh it was another baby,

111
00:07:25.680 --> 00:07:30.879
Sarah thank right, with the what's
it called a baby monitor? The baby

112
00:07:30.920 --> 00:07:32.720
monitor story? Yeah that that was
like toddler, right, a young toddler,

113
00:07:33.120 --> 00:07:36.560
and they covered up the camera.
Yeah, that was messed up.

114
00:07:36.600 --> 00:07:41.519
And so this this kind of reminds
you of those, and it's just absolutely

115
00:07:41.639 --> 00:07:46.160
terrifying. I have an autistic nephew, so, like, you know,

116
00:07:46.360 --> 00:07:50.120
the idea of someone be eating there
talking to him, Yeah, it's it's

117
00:07:50.319 --> 00:07:56.279
gut riching, So you know that
that's that's terrifying. I think if you

118
00:07:56.439 --> 00:08:00.399
just heard the kid talking, you
would probably assume, like they did,

119
00:08:00.399 --> 00:08:05.000
that it was just someone conversing with
an imaginary friend, just playing amongst themselves.

120
00:08:05.040 --> 00:08:07.920
Really nothing about it, right,
because even my kids, I have

121
00:08:09.040 --> 00:08:13.879
kids, they're always talking to themselves. So you probably wouldn't think much of

122
00:08:13.920 --> 00:08:18.079
it. But then again, you
would probably be a little concerned that the

123
00:08:18.199 --> 00:08:22.720
kid was in your closet that first
night. That's a weird thing to do.

124
00:08:22.800 --> 00:08:26.079
But to you to your point,
you know, obviously as a disability,

125
00:08:26.959 --> 00:08:31.600
strange states to do. Nevertheless,
but I think to me, when

126
00:08:31.680 --> 00:08:35.399
you approach the room and you make
that sound on the floor like you talked

127
00:08:35.399 --> 00:08:39.080
about, like you could you know
how you could hear somebody approaching on a

128
00:08:39.519 --> 00:08:43.679
hard floor and then the lights got
flipped off real fast at the dove into

129
00:08:43.679 --> 00:08:46.399
bed, that's an indication of any
human this's something's going on, right,

130
00:08:46.840 --> 00:08:50.679
Yeah, So then you start to
then the next night you actually have this

131
00:08:50.080 --> 00:08:58.519
happened, which is insane. That's
just a terrifying idea and the story and

132
00:08:58.039 --> 00:09:01.879
yeah that stuff. Again, we
have this scenario, like we always talk

133
00:09:01.919 --> 00:09:05.279
about where they seem like they go
in the bathroom and hide, right,

134
00:09:05.480 --> 00:09:09.480
like, Yeah, it's probably partially
because the bathroom is generally close to a

135
00:09:09.519 --> 00:09:13.720
bedroom down the hallway. Yeah,
it's the safest place to shut the door.

136
00:09:13.759 --> 00:09:18.759
But usually they have no windows or
you'd say like that, Yeah,

137
00:09:18.039 --> 00:09:20.559
I guess it's where you'd go if
there's a storm, and I guess it's

138
00:09:20.559 --> 00:09:24.799
where you'd go if you were worried
somebody was in your house. So yeah,

139
00:09:24.080 --> 00:09:28.080
a lot of times, actually when
they're build houses, if they're building

140
00:09:28.120 --> 00:09:33.240
out a bathroom, they have more
studs in the walls because it's supposed to

141
00:09:33.240 --> 00:09:35.240
be like a safer area. So
yeah, usually in the center. It's

142
00:09:35.320 --> 00:09:39.600
usually some sort of I don't want
to say center of the house. But

143
00:09:39.679 --> 00:09:43.480
nevertheless, somebody said they always hide
in the bathroom at movies too. That's

144
00:09:43.519 --> 00:09:46.559
true. Yeah, that's true.
I don't know why. It must be

145
00:09:46.600 --> 00:09:48.679
like a safe haven. You know, I'm going to hide in this bathroom.

146
00:09:48.720 --> 00:09:54.039
But I think it's interesting how the
individual ends this story by saying by

147
00:09:54.080 --> 00:09:56.039
the next day, that was the
end of me and that family. I

148
00:09:56.080 --> 00:09:58.320
don't know what ever happened after that, but I hope whoever was in that

149
00:09:58.320 --> 00:10:03.519
closet never returned. One of those
instances where it's so traumatic you're just not

150
00:10:03.559 --> 00:10:05.919
gonna go back, right, I
mean, you just didn't go back.

151
00:10:05.879 --> 00:10:09.679
On some of these stories we've shared, not the baby monitor one, but

152
00:10:09.720 --> 00:10:13.960
others, they catch the individual,
like that terrifying story of the homeless guy

153
00:10:13.360 --> 00:10:18.240
sleeping under the kid's bed. He's
arrested, right, But in this instance,

154
00:10:18.360 --> 00:10:20.360
you don't know, you never caught
the guy. So I could definitely

155
00:10:20.360 --> 00:10:26.559
see where I'm gonna disconnect myself from
that. Yeah, irish situation. I

156
00:10:26.600 --> 00:10:31.279
think that's what's happened. What'd you
say. I hit some button on the

157
00:10:31.279 --> 00:10:33.919
computer and just flipped on some video. Sorry, I didn't know what that

158
00:10:35.240 --> 00:10:39.759
was. I was like, yeah, it's crazy. I thought you were

159
00:10:39.799 --> 00:10:43.879
doing one of those things that you
do, like man, it's just that

160
00:10:43.240 --> 00:10:46.399
complicated, you know, not got
that old rubic cute man, you like

161
00:10:46.440 --> 00:10:50.639
Tomada Blue red man. Then you
get to one side and you mess it

162
00:10:50.720 --> 00:10:52.759
up on the other side. No, but it was close to it kind

163
00:10:52.759 --> 00:10:56.200
of sounded like that. To be
honest, it did actually because I caught

164
00:10:56.240 --> 00:10:58.480
it like right away. So then
he was like, I just thought you

165
00:10:58.480 --> 00:11:01.240
were trying to jump scared of me, you know. Like no, I

166
00:11:01.320 --> 00:11:05.080
jumped scared of myself because I was
like, oh shit, all right,

167
00:11:05.120 --> 00:11:09.320
give me que up. Are you
ready? My first story is part of

168
00:11:09.360 --> 00:11:13.720
a series of stories, though I
read today, they're not connected by the

169
00:11:13.759 --> 00:11:18.639
people at all. But there is
a very similar thing. And like I

170
00:11:18.679 --> 00:11:22.240
said, it was a bit of
a rabbit hole I went down. The

171
00:11:22.240 --> 00:11:26.960
title of this story is the Thing
on the Lake. I live in Michigan,

172
00:11:28.279 --> 00:11:31.480
about forty minutes away from any large
town or neighborhood. I like it

173
00:11:31.519 --> 00:11:35.279
that way. I enjoy the solitude. I like to go camping, and

174
00:11:35.320 --> 00:11:39.639
I have a truck at a small
rowboat that I use for fishing. I

175
00:11:39.679 --> 00:11:41.200
can take it anywhere because it fits
in my truck, but I leave the

176
00:11:41.240 --> 00:11:45.600
hatch open it and strap it down. Slide that handle on my moules.

177
00:11:45.639 --> 00:11:48.360
That's really nice to bring a cooler
of beers my fishing gear at local lakes

178
00:11:48.360 --> 00:11:54.440
and use my boat. I'm very
careful to wash my boat between lakes because

179
00:11:54.480 --> 00:11:58.039
I know about the base of fishing
parasites. It's not clean and wax about

180
00:11:58.039 --> 00:12:03.440
every time I use it. Get
to the lake that I'm added two today

181
00:12:03.759 --> 00:12:09.000
and it's a very overgrown, horribly
so I had to clear big sticks for

182
00:12:09.080 --> 00:12:11.320
the path that have been there for
a while. It looked like they had

183
00:12:11.879 --> 00:12:16.320
till I reached the lake as I
fulled up there with a small clearing A

184
00:12:16.440 --> 00:12:20.200
decent sized lake about the size I
could row across at ten minutes or less

185
00:12:20.240 --> 00:12:24.240
if I tried. I pulled in, I loaded my boat, my beer.

186
00:12:24.360 --> 00:12:26.759
I was off on the lake in
under twenty minutes. I brought my

187
00:12:26.840 --> 00:12:33.360
beer cooler on the boaty because I
can't and nothing better than boats and beers

188
00:12:33.360 --> 00:12:37.120
of solitude. I was on the
lake and I noticed that staring at my

189
00:12:37.240 --> 00:12:45.039
boat from the shore, it was
a tall skindy and an intelligent looking animal

190
00:12:45.200 --> 00:12:50.919
that was standing on its hind legs. The creature had long stick like arms

191
00:12:50.399 --> 00:12:56.519
and long thick legs. It was
a little bit far see you very well,

192
00:12:56.120 --> 00:13:01.120
but it may have had large brown
eyes. It had to been my

193
00:13:01.200 --> 00:13:05.720
imagination, I thought, so I
tried to stick myself out of it.

194
00:13:05.799 --> 00:13:09.039
I couldn't believe my eyes when I
realized I wasn't hallucinating. From my view,

195
00:13:09.120 --> 00:13:13.159
I guess it would have been about
eight feet tall, considered how tall

196
00:13:13.159 --> 00:13:18.360
I looked next to my truck.
He was looking at me. I felt

197
00:13:18.440 --> 00:13:22.480
petrified. There's nothing at all that
could made me feel safe in that moment.

198
00:13:24.279 --> 00:13:26.039
If I thought to shoot at it, I had left my gun in

199
00:13:26.080 --> 00:13:31.320
the car. I reached my oars
after I was startled. It seemed to

200
00:13:31.399 --> 00:13:39.279
notice and stop looking my direction,
which made me feel more upset because that

201
00:13:39.360 --> 00:13:43.799
meant had watched me, probably for
a while before I looked over towards it.

202
00:13:43.840 --> 00:13:48.279
The animal that went and started to
expect my truck tapping on it,

203
00:13:48.320 --> 00:13:52.320
and it looked like he was checking
out his reflection. I couldn't do anything

204
00:13:54.080 --> 00:13:56.799
better to watch it horror while it
made some shrieking noises and ran in the

205
00:13:56.879 --> 00:14:03.200
woods on all fours. Disappeared into
the forest almost instantly. I can't describe

206
00:14:03.399 --> 00:14:07.559
how difficult it was to roll back
to shore after seeing that. My hours

207
00:14:07.600 --> 00:14:13.080
felt like jelly and my heart was
out of control. It felt like my

208
00:14:13.120 --> 00:14:16.360
whole body was dunked at ice water, and it was uneasy until I got

209
00:14:16.360 --> 00:14:20.120
home. When I got to shore, I consider leaving my boat behind,

210
00:14:20.840 --> 00:14:22.840
but instead, I ran to my
car to get my side arm and it

211
00:14:22.879 --> 00:14:28.879
loaded up. The boat went on
to say, I had a comment that

212
00:14:28.039 --> 00:14:33.519
he still goes out in nature,
but this was a once in a lifetime

213
00:14:33.519 --> 00:14:37.679
occurrence that makes him now practice sharp
shooting, and it makes him keep his

214
00:14:37.679 --> 00:14:41.039
gut with it at all times.
Is it a side arm? If it's

215
00:14:41.080 --> 00:14:43.919
not on you, that's a good
question. I would say. No,

216
00:14:43.320 --> 00:14:46.559
that's the first thing I thought.
How inconvenient it just was not on you.

217
00:14:48.039 --> 00:14:50.080
So this is, like I said, the first and three different stories

218
00:14:50.159 --> 00:14:54.399
of this very similar creature. After
I read these stories, and in fact,

219
00:14:54.440 --> 00:14:58.559
once we get to the end,
I'll tell you what my thought process

220
00:14:58.600 --> 00:15:05.120
on this possibly be, because these
days get progressively weirder. I'll tell you

221
00:15:05.159 --> 00:15:07.600
my thought process of what it seems
like now to me, if I had

222
00:15:07.600 --> 00:15:11.960
to guess, it sounds like a
death clall from Paul out right. Now,

223
00:15:11.759 --> 00:15:15.799
that's just what That's just where I've
got. Somebody said, remind me

224
00:15:15.840 --> 00:15:18.240
to never go fishing. The creature
just wanted to check out his truck.

225
00:15:18.440 --> 00:15:20.720
Yeah, there you go. Yeah, maybe you just like this truck.

226
00:15:20.799 --> 00:15:24.399
Yeah, you never know. The
first day they came from my mind was

227
00:15:24.440 --> 00:15:28.639
possibly a bear with mange. I
don't know if you ever seeing a hairless

228
00:15:28.679 --> 00:15:33.240
bear? Yeah, yeah, night
mare, right, So that was the

229
00:15:33.240 --> 00:15:37.120
first thing I thought. But then
I kind of dug into these stories and

230
00:15:37.279 --> 00:15:41.960
they are everywhere, and they get
pre eight foot tall, you said,

231
00:15:43.039 --> 00:15:46.720
right, eight foot tall? Yeah, that's pretty scary. Yeah, so

232
00:15:46.759 --> 00:15:48.039
it was like twice the height of
his truck. We has a boo or

233
00:15:48.039 --> 00:15:50.120
something like that, or well,
I mean, I guess the bear could

234
00:15:50.120 --> 00:15:54.600
stand on its back legs where I
be that tall? Yeah, grizzlies get

235
00:15:54.639 --> 00:15:58.600
real tall. Where was this out
again in Michigan? He said, you

236
00:15:58.600 --> 00:16:00.080
know, on a lake in Michigan. Hm, hm, Yeah, that's

237
00:16:00.120 --> 00:16:03.240
a pretty deep one. So it's
gonna progress. So the stories you have

238
00:16:03.279 --> 00:16:06.799
the rest of this Nightder guy progress
off of that. Yeah. They're not

239
00:16:06.919 --> 00:16:10.279
even by the same person. They're
just all over the place. So what

240
00:16:10.360 --> 00:16:12.320
happened was he ended up into the
water, right, Yeah, he was

241
00:16:12.360 --> 00:16:15.480
on he was on his boat out
there, and so he got out their

242
00:16:15.600 --> 00:16:21.759
ways and he kind of looked around
and he saw this thing staring at over

243
00:16:21.799 --> 00:16:25.360
in the water, and at first
it didn't know that he saw it until

244
00:16:25.399 --> 00:16:30.120
he started rowing back. And then
the fact that it was like he acknowledged

245
00:16:30.120 --> 00:16:33.639
it that he was coming back put
him off you more, and I agree

246
00:16:33.679 --> 00:16:37.440
that would be absolutely insane. He
was a run anywhere too fast, was

247
00:16:37.480 --> 00:16:41.120
he? He even debated if he
wasn't even he was just going to give

248
00:16:41.200 --> 00:16:44.240
up that boat. Yeah, he
said, well, it doesn't even worth

249
00:16:44.279 --> 00:16:47.600
it. It was just a rogo
deck girl. I mean, he said,

250
00:16:47.639 --> 00:16:48.519
it was small enough to take a
fit in the back of this truck.

251
00:16:48.559 --> 00:16:52.639
And the man had a little it
at himself. I don't think that's

252
00:16:52.639 --> 00:16:56.399
worth saving. Yeah, that these
wise are the times you just wish he

253
00:16:56.440 --> 00:17:00.039
had a real damn boat. If
you can't get away fast something swimming,

254
00:17:00.080 --> 00:17:03.799
then that's not the kind of boat. I went secre of the boats,

255
00:17:03.840 --> 00:17:06.839
No, buddy said. Somebody said, the hell at the boat. Everybody

256
00:17:06.880 --> 00:17:10.920
says, dish the boat. Yeah, this is your scary stories that you

257
00:17:10.960 --> 00:17:15.480
show where we share your scary stories
live on the air. Luke just got

258
00:17:15.480 --> 00:17:18.799
done finishing his first story of the
night. We're gonna dig deeper into it

259
00:17:18.799 --> 00:17:22.640
as tonight progresses. This sounds like
there's a creature in the making. This

260
00:17:22.799 --> 00:17:26.400
next story I'm gonna share. I'm
so excited about this. So this story

261
00:17:26.119 --> 00:17:30.640
has gone viral, so This story's
by no means gonna be your first time

262
00:17:30.680 --> 00:17:34.240
hearing it, possibly credit to mister
Nightmare, where I actually had heard this

263
00:17:34.319 --> 00:17:37.000
story. It's it's everywhere. This
is a popular one, and I actually

264
00:17:37.039 --> 00:17:41.920
have footage to share along with it, so I'm actually excited. This should

265
00:17:41.960 --> 00:17:47.960
be fun. This story is called
Terrifying cross space horror Story. It's by

266
00:17:48.079 --> 00:17:52.519
Jake h. Usually the scariest things
you'll find in a cross space would be

267
00:17:52.960 --> 00:17:59.119
mice, sir, spiders, maybe
crickets. Jake found something way more terrifying

268
00:17:59.200 --> 00:18:03.440
than any cree in his crawl space. Jake lives in a nice neighborhood and

269
00:18:03.480 --> 00:18:07.960
owns his own house where his girlfriend
lives with him. Jake met his girlfriend

270
00:18:07.960 --> 00:18:11.000
in their local community. The two
hit it off and would eventually start to

271
00:18:11.119 --> 00:18:14.240
date. At some point during this
time, she opened up to him about

272
00:18:14.240 --> 00:18:18.960
her old abusive ex. She described
her ex as a ticking time bomb.

273
00:18:18.480 --> 00:18:23.000
He would often be very sweet,
and she did it like his more genuine

274
00:18:23.039 --> 00:18:29.160
kind side, but he could at
a switch become a completely different person.

275
00:18:30.119 --> 00:18:33.279
One side, like she mentioned,
was sweet, the other side was a

276
00:18:33.440 --> 00:18:37.720
very aggressive, scary man who would
do things like by bouncers of bars on

277
00:18:37.799 --> 00:18:42.519
holls and walls, or even sometimes
actually get physically abusive with her. Things

278
00:18:42.559 --> 00:18:45.759
would become so rocky between the two
that eventually she would end things with her

279
00:18:45.799 --> 00:18:51.119
ex, but he didn't take that
news well. She feared that her ex

280
00:18:51.240 --> 00:18:56.000
was stalking her. An example,
at her parents house during the late night

281
00:18:56.079 --> 00:19:00.359
hours, either she or her parents
would hear sounds from the backyard, things

282
00:19:00.519 --> 00:19:06.319
like a gate slamming shut or the
back door shed closing. She made the

283
00:19:06.359 --> 00:19:11.799
decision to disable all forms of social
media after the breakup, and she became

284
00:19:11.920 --> 00:19:15.359
very concerned, so concerned for her
well being that she actually decided to move

285
00:19:15.400 --> 00:19:19.759
in with her boyfriend. Jake started
the story with on one regular night that

286
00:19:19.839 --> 00:19:23.799
Jake's girlfriend wasn't in the house with
him, he was in his living room

287
00:19:23.799 --> 00:19:29.400
when he heard noises coming from the
crawl space. He moved from the living

288
00:19:29.480 --> 00:19:32.880
room to his kitchen and sat at
the island for a while, continuing to

289
00:19:32.960 --> 00:19:38.640
listen and hearing these strange noises,
occasionally thumping sounds from directly below him.

290
00:19:40.000 --> 00:19:44.079
It was at this time where he
started to record a video for a Snapchat

291
00:19:44.240 --> 00:19:48.039
story. Assuming that he was hearing
an animal of some kind such as a

292
00:19:48.160 --> 00:19:52.559
raccoon, he thought this should be
an entertaining thing to record for Snapchat,

293
00:19:52.680 --> 00:19:55.960
which it does sound like it would
be right. A raccoon in your cross

294
00:19:55.960 --> 00:19:59.039
space. I've had a spurl mattic
that definitely was not fun. As he

295
00:19:59.119 --> 00:20:02.240
enters the cross space, he he
stops recording for a second, and we'll

296
00:20:02.240 --> 00:20:04.960
get in this video here in a
second. And I did edit this video

297
00:20:06.119 --> 00:20:10.000
down shorter, so if you're watching
it, that's not the complete original presentation,

298
00:20:10.119 --> 00:20:11.960
so don't think that it's edited in
any sort of way, because that

299
00:20:12.039 --> 00:20:15.440
was me. You'll see the light
come on us sometimes so he can see

300
00:20:15.480 --> 00:20:19.599
when he gets down in the cross
base. Also note that the crossbace appears

301
00:20:19.599 --> 00:20:23.440
to be mostly empty, aside from
some boxes that were tucked into the corner.

302
00:20:25.279 --> 00:20:27.240
Jake said that he saw these boxes
this way. He was confused because

303
00:20:27.279 --> 00:20:32.799
he didn't remember leaving them that way. So Jake decides to walk deeper into

304
00:20:32.880 --> 00:20:34.400
the cross space. We're going to
pick up on the video now, and

305
00:20:34.480 --> 00:20:38.000
actually it'll do a short recap on
what we talked about. He sit at

306
00:20:38.000 --> 00:20:41.359
the kitchen on the island when he's
hearing these noises. When he starts to

307
00:20:41.400 --> 00:21:04.599
record this on Snapchat, who the
fuck is that noise? Oh sh just

308
00:21:04.680 --> 00:22:25.319
gonta day oh to see that up
there for a second. And I will

309
00:22:25.319 --> 00:22:29.359
pick back up on the story here
in a moment. But it's important to

310
00:22:29.359 --> 00:22:33.279
note, and we'll get into here. This is where the video ends.

311
00:22:33.279 --> 00:22:38.799
And if anybody listening is you snapchat
that's because when you you basically have to

312
00:22:38.839 --> 00:22:42.440
hold down the screen that says record, So as soon as you let off

313
00:22:42.480 --> 00:22:47.000
your finger off the screen, it
stops recording. So that that explains that.

314
00:22:47.559 --> 00:22:51.160
Let me summarize, let me finish
up the story here. Jake said

315
00:22:51.160 --> 00:22:53.599
that he heard a noise in one
corner, like pebbles being scraped on the

316
00:22:53.640 --> 00:22:59.160
concrete floor. As he heard the
noise, he turned to the corner and

317
00:22:59.200 --> 00:23:03.240
this is where he saw the was
terrifying sight, the sight of somebody hunched

318
00:23:03.279 --> 00:23:06.240
over, addressed in all black,
who was hiding in the corner. When

319
00:23:06.279 --> 00:23:08.799
spotted, the individual started approaching him, which you could see in the video.

320
00:23:10.000 --> 00:23:15.039
The screen that Jake sounded like was
completely sounded, completely legitimate, somebody

321
00:23:15.079 --> 00:23:19.440
witnessing something very disturbing as an intruder
hiding in their crawl space and then basically

322
00:23:19.480 --> 00:23:22.519
legended them. The video cuts out
seconds later, Like I just said.

323
00:23:22.559 --> 00:23:27.759
Because of the snapchat, he didn't
go on to explain what happened to the

324
00:23:27.759 --> 00:23:32.799
rest of this event. He ran
back to the ladder of his crawl space,

325
00:23:33.920 --> 00:23:37.119
and as he was climbing up,
a hand grabbed his leg and tried

326
00:23:37.119 --> 00:23:41.359
to pull him back down into the
crawl space. By kicking the hand off

327
00:23:41.400 --> 00:23:44.920
of his leg, he was able
to shut the crawl space door in their

328
00:23:44.960 --> 00:23:48.839
face. Unfortunately, the door to
the closet which contained the crawl space didn't

329
00:23:48.880 --> 00:23:52.759
have a lock, so Jake's first
instinct was to run into the kitchen and

330
00:23:52.759 --> 00:23:57.160
grab the biggest knife and lock himself
inside the bathroom. He said he heard

331
00:23:57.160 --> 00:24:00.599
the closet door open and footsteps come
out of the atom door, and then

332
00:24:00.720 --> 00:24:03.680
the person on the other side of
the door tried to turn the doorknob.

333
00:24:04.160 --> 00:24:08.279
Not knowing what kind of weapons the
intruder might have, Jake didn't engage the

334
00:24:08.279 --> 00:24:11.599
intruder in a fight. Instead,
he silently called nine one one. It

335
00:24:11.680 --> 00:24:17.079
kept the line going and eventually heard
footsteps quickly leave the house and out the

336
00:24:17.079 --> 00:24:19.720
front door. Now, Jake told
the nine one one operator about the incident.

337
00:24:21.400 --> 00:24:25.400
Jake's girl friend refused to come to
the house after hearing of this incident

338
00:24:25.519 --> 00:24:29.279
because she swore left and right that
the man in the video had to be

339
00:24:29.319 --> 00:24:33.319
your ex. It's impossible to make
out any notable facial features in the video.

340
00:24:34.079 --> 00:24:38.759
You can see that the person was
worrying, all black and their head

341
00:24:38.839 --> 00:24:42.319
was covered by a hood. Jake
also described the man to be very tall,

342
00:24:42.559 --> 00:24:48.880
intimidating stature, despite being hunched over
in the cross space. Jake's girlfriend

343
00:24:48.079 --> 00:24:52.400
said her ex was very tall and
upon watching the video, she squares looks

344
00:24:52.519 --> 00:24:57.079
just like him. Of course,
it's just speculation on her part and without

345
00:24:57.160 --> 00:25:00.319
solid evidence, legally, they don't
have many options. They didn't have any

346
00:25:00.359 --> 00:25:03.720
options. In the video, he
shared, you can hear loud and hammering

347
00:25:03.720 --> 00:25:07.480
type sounds in the beginning. After
going back into the crawspace and investigating,

348
00:25:07.559 --> 00:25:12.839
Jake found that the intruder had been
ripping through some insulation on the crawl space

349
00:25:14.240 --> 00:25:18.799
and been actually hammering at some of
the wood on the ceiling of the crawl

350
00:25:18.799 --> 00:25:22.559
space. It's unknown what he was
doing. It was also discovered that he

351
00:25:22.359 --> 00:25:26.839
did a couple hides in one of
their sheds. The house key was missing,

352
00:25:26.319 --> 00:25:30.599
which probably revealed how the intruder got
inside. Jack changed the locks on

353
00:25:30.680 --> 00:25:34.559
the door of that exact same night. His girlfriend has yet to return to

354
00:25:34.599 --> 00:25:38.160
the house. She's almost certain now
that she's been stocked by her crazy ex

355
00:25:38.200 --> 00:25:45.440
boyfriend. Jake has installed areenbuild doorbell
camera recently, and on the occasion he's

356
00:25:45.599 --> 00:25:48.079
getting a notification by Alexa device that
there's somewhat at the front door, but

357
00:25:48.200 --> 00:25:52.279
there's never about anybody actually there when
he looks, not visibly at least.

358
00:25:52.720 --> 00:25:56.039
It's crazy to think this started with
a guy simply trying to get a funny

359
00:25:56.039 --> 00:26:00.960
Snapchat story of what he's seemed to
be a raccoon or something in his cross

360
00:26:00.960 --> 00:26:06.759
space, but turned into something much
more horrifying. Okay, well, I

361
00:26:06.880 --> 00:26:12.440
was terrified when I saw his cross
face because it looks identical to the crawl

362
00:26:12.519 --> 00:26:18.200
space interests in my house, same
carpet, It looks pretty, it looks

363
00:26:18.200 --> 00:26:21.960
pretty close to mind and mine.
Actually, the interest to my cross face

364
00:26:22.039 --> 00:26:25.759
is in my utility room, laundery
room, so same sort of setup.

365
00:26:26.000 --> 00:26:29.039
So yeah, I'm with you there, dude. I felt it completely.

366
00:26:29.079 --> 00:26:33.519
You really can't walk comfortably. It's
almost more comfortable to walk on scoot around

367
00:26:33.519 --> 00:26:37.359
on your knees. Oh man,
that was rough. I saw that though,

368
00:26:37.480 --> 00:26:42.000
I was like, man, that
is terrifying, especially since I've actually

369
00:26:42.000 --> 00:26:45.880
got to show that video to my
nephew Emory, because recently we set them

370
00:26:45.920 --> 00:26:52.119
down our cross space to run some
wire for us. There was the comments

371
00:26:52.200 --> 00:26:56.559
during this video where there are a
lot there. There were dozens of co

372
00:26:56.640 --> 00:27:00.440
are saying, don't go down there, don't be stupid. Why would you

373
00:27:00.519 --> 00:27:04.680
go down there? Why? A
lot of whys if that somebody said,

374
00:27:04.799 --> 00:27:07.319
what the hell if I hear something
like that in my cross space, I'm

375
00:27:07.319 --> 00:27:11.880
throwing I'm throwing bug bombs down there, So I will say, Okay,

376
00:27:11.920 --> 00:27:15.960
So right before we bought our first
house, we lived in this little rental

377
00:27:15.400 --> 00:27:19.119
and squirrels got into the attic that
got in between the roof and whatever got

378
00:27:19.119 --> 00:27:23.599
into there, and you do you
hear the sounds. My first instincts like

379
00:27:23.680 --> 00:27:27.400
it's and there's so many horror stories
out there of things made in the attic

380
00:27:27.480 --> 00:27:32.799
too. Yeah, my first instinct
was it's a squirrel, it's a raccoon

381
00:27:32.920 --> 00:27:37.960
or something. But in that particular
house, you went up pulled down ladder

382
00:27:37.039 --> 00:27:42.759
into this attic and you look around
and that just like my house now has

383
00:27:42.799 --> 00:27:48.799
that like spray foam stuff everywhere it's
not like there is insulation laid up on

384
00:27:48.799 --> 00:27:52.000
the walls and stuff like that,
but it's mostly that foam all over the

385
00:27:52.039 --> 00:27:56.519
floor, so you really can't see
can't see shit basically, right, I

386
00:27:56.599 --> 00:28:00.160
mean, but in a cross space
like this particular one, it's just oh

387
00:28:00.200 --> 00:28:03.640
wide open. And once he got
around the corner and he moves that camera

388
00:28:03.680 --> 00:28:07.359
and you see that person, it
was truly a jump scare. And the

389
00:28:07.400 --> 00:28:12.000
reason I think it's so real it's
because when you are out Snapchat, once

390
00:28:12.039 --> 00:28:15.880
you let go of the screen,
it's off. And if that happened to

391
00:28:15.920 --> 00:28:18.200
you, you would not be able
to keep recording. It's not possible.

392
00:28:18.839 --> 00:28:22.559
First of all, you get scared, you'd release the screen. Second of

393
00:28:22.599 --> 00:28:23.519
all, if you're running upstairs and
all that, you wouldn't be able to

394
00:28:23.599 --> 00:28:27.440
keep recording. So it's it's like
a real legitimate story to me. I

395
00:28:27.880 --> 00:28:33.680
agree. Yeah. I will say
though that i'd add a raccoon in my

396
00:28:33.799 --> 00:28:37.680
cross space before, and I would
recognize that that was not a raccoon noise

397
00:28:40.599 --> 00:28:44.160
actually, and it touched up on
at the end of the story. There

398
00:28:44.200 --> 00:28:47.519
were some photos of when he went
back down there, and that that person

399
00:28:47.680 --> 00:28:51.240
was just freaking hacking away at stuff
down there. I pulled off the insulation

400
00:28:51.960 --> 00:28:55.039
and was just like, can't I
can't even have fathom what he was doing,

401
00:28:55.079 --> 00:28:56.799
and like like I was trying to
piece it together, like what would

402
00:28:56.839 --> 00:29:00.720
you do? Why would you be
doing that? I don't know. Maybe

403
00:29:00.720 --> 00:29:03.920
he was, and there was even
some damage to the pipes and stuff too.

404
00:29:03.200 --> 00:29:06.359
My thought went to, is he
trying to like do it in a

405
00:29:06.400 --> 00:29:10.519
spot where he could pop up and
scare them, like or get the girlfriend?

406
00:29:10.559 --> 00:29:14.000
Like assuming it is this crazy X, you know, I don't know.

407
00:29:14.240 --> 00:29:17.680
I wonder what his plan was.
That's pretty easy. Well, I

408
00:29:17.720 --> 00:29:21.720
mean, if you're crazy enough to
go live with someone's ballspace, that your

409
00:29:21.759 --> 00:29:25.240
plans are probably not sound. Makes
you wonder how long you're down there,

410
00:29:25.279 --> 00:29:27.599
don't doesn't seem like the type of
place that you could There's no entry from

411
00:29:27.599 --> 00:29:32.640
the outside. So yeah, somebody
brought up a good point setting up a

412
00:29:32.680 --> 00:29:36.559
break in. Maybe oh maybe I
mean leave for the day and go back

413
00:29:36.599 --> 00:29:40.119
out and take your stuff. But
I don't know. Seems like they could

414
00:29:40.160 --> 00:29:41.319
have already done that, right because
they had to get into the house when

415
00:29:41.319 --> 00:29:45.039
he wasn't there. You'd assume,
yeah, because he said he had the

416
00:29:45.119 --> 00:29:47.720
key with miss hating, so I
think mess and this all happened in the

417
00:29:47.799 --> 00:29:51.319
nighttime hours, So I mean you'd
assume that the person got in there and

418
00:29:51.359 --> 00:29:52.319
there gout there the day. But
then again, I guess you never know.

419
00:29:52.960 --> 00:29:56.559
They just wondered how long they're down
there. It's not a very comfortable

420
00:29:56.559 --> 00:30:00.759
place to hang out, no,
because this guy was very all you could

421
00:30:00.759 --> 00:30:04.519
tell about how cool it was while
crowd sitting down, So this would be

422
00:30:04.559 --> 00:30:10.599
a very uncomfortable position to be in. It's just just a phrase, yes,

423
00:30:10.680 --> 00:30:14.119
stay ever seen they're gonna we'll watch
the end one more time before we

424
00:30:14.119 --> 00:30:40.720
move on. Yeah, yeah,
So like right there, he's like yeah,

425
00:30:40.880 --> 00:30:44.680
half yeah, bent over and he's
still near the top of that.

426
00:30:45.400 --> 00:30:48.279
Yeah. That's most terrifying thing ever. The person was definitely trying to hide

427
00:30:48.319 --> 00:30:52.799
in the corner, like maybe like
you got stuck in a spot where you

428
00:30:52.799 --> 00:30:56.319
could really navigate the rest of crawl
space, so you're kind of so,

429
00:30:56.400 --> 00:30:59.920
so, well, I'll just try
to hide in the corner. That's that's

430
00:31:00.039 --> 00:31:02.720
scariest thing ever. Then, I
don't know, Yeah, it's crazy.

431
00:31:03.079 --> 00:31:06.039
Someone said, best story of the
show yet, thank you. I appreciate

432
00:31:06.119 --> 00:31:08.720
that. I was really excited to
scare us share that it's not not like

433
00:31:08.759 --> 00:31:11.079
I originally sent to us, so
we do want to note that. But

434
00:31:11.839 --> 00:31:15.240
definitely, if you want to see
a bunch of more content like that,

435
00:31:15.680 --> 00:31:18.839
mister nightmare, is the way to
go. A bunch of stuff like that.

436
00:31:18.839 --> 00:31:22.039
Uh yeah, no, awesome story, Luke, I'll kee you yup,

437
00:31:22.079 --> 00:31:23.200
man, We're going to go back
down the rabbit hole this creature.

438
00:31:23.200 --> 00:31:27.400
I'm excited yet, all right,
So this one takes place in Southern California,

439
00:31:29.039 --> 00:31:30.119
which, yeah, quite a bit
of ways from Michigan, where we

440
00:31:30.119 --> 00:31:37.160
were last time, and this is
called the South California not dear. I

441
00:31:37.240 --> 00:31:40.480
commute for my job. It's a
retail job, but I live in a

442
00:31:40.599 --> 00:31:47.359
rural area area in the southern California
foothills is currently my only option. I

443
00:31:47.480 --> 00:31:51.240
drive home every night. You're one, am. I take the highway.

444
00:31:51.240 --> 00:31:56.119
Always deserve these size of Some nights
we're more peculiar than others, but nothing

445
00:31:56.240 --> 00:32:00.720
is so extreme as this incident.
It's not uncommon for to see a lot

446
00:32:00.720 --> 00:32:04.759
of wildlife on these tribes. I
would take it slow and be alert.

447
00:32:04.839 --> 00:32:09.519
Occasionally see a black tailed deer,
coyotes, raccoon, et cetera. One

448
00:32:09.599 --> 00:32:14.400
recent night, it was only about
ten minutes away from home. It rode

449
00:32:14.440 --> 00:32:17.119
up to the usual four way stop
there stopped at a hundred times before,

450
00:32:19.119 --> 00:32:23.960
so around came to a complete stop. I saw something standing just off by

451
00:32:24.079 --> 00:32:30.079
side of the road across the intersection. It was obviously an animal. It's

452
00:32:30.160 --> 00:32:32.240
headed toward road, so it's gone
a way for it to cross. Took

453
00:32:32.279 --> 00:32:37.000
me a second to really comprehend what
it was. At first I thought it

454
00:32:37.039 --> 00:32:40.880
was a horse, which, although
dangerous, wouldn't be that uncommon for where

455
00:32:40.920 --> 00:32:47.000
I lived due to irresponsible ranchers and
they're constantly broken fences. Then, as

456
00:32:47.000 --> 00:32:52.759
I started to make out what what
was, it neared light out of the

457
00:32:52.839 --> 00:32:57.880
headlights. I realized something was very
wrong with this animal. It was tall,

458
00:32:58.759 --> 00:33:02.960
so much so delay looked still like. As I sat there, the

459
00:33:04.000 --> 00:33:07.480
shocked. It slowly steucked onto the
road and came across by a car as

460
00:33:07.519 --> 00:33:12.599
direct beam with a headlight. At
this point I realized two thadys One.

461
00:33:13.279 --> 00:33:19.160
It was much taller than my car. Its height was monstrous. Two Its

462
00:33:19.200 --> 00:33:22.359
gate was very odd, almost like
it didn't know how to properly walk as

463
00:33:22.359 --> 00:33:27.119
a deer should. It was like
all the joints wanted to bend the wrong

464
00:33:27.200 --> 00:33:31.319
way. It moved slowly into the
uncoming lane, and it swiveled its head

465
00:33:31.359 --> 00:33:37.799
to look back at me. All
the hair on my body rose. What

466
00:33:37.920 --> 00:33:40.119
spooked me the most was that there
was certainly a deer, or at least

467
00:33:40.119 --> 00:33:45.079
something that looked like one. It
looked normal every way except for the spiral

468
00:33:45.240 --> 00:33:49.759
like legs that were standing on At
this point, I gassed the car,

469
00:33:50.160 --> 00:33:53.400
and the deer stood unmoving as my
car spit by. I looked in my

470
00:33:53.400 --> 00:33:58.240
rear of the ear kind of glimpsed
of it crossing the oncoming lane back into

471
00:33:58.279 --> 00:34:01.319
the shoulder of the highway. They
read by my blake brick lights. When

472
00:34:01.319 --> 00:34:05.920
I got home, I ran into
my house and locked myself in. I'm

473
00:34:05.960 --> 00:34:10.920
still understandably freaked out. That's terrifying. They're all definitely really want you to

474
00:34:10.960 --> 00:34:15.800
know how tall this thing is.
Yeah, and kind of the I'm still

475
00:34:15.880 --> 00:34:20.840
the death claw man. Those legs
until like skinny legs man. Yeah.

476
00:34:20.920 --> 00:34:24.199
But what's not interesday about this is
well, he didn't necessarily said at intelligent

477
00:34:24.320 --> 00:34:30.239
eyes. It said it stared at
him, right, which seems to be

478
00:34:30.360 --> 00:34:36.000
intelligent, right. Same thing with
the first guy, Skinny lags there skinny

479
00:34:36.280 --> 00:34:40.360
appendages, really tall and the social
of intelligence, and then like this guy

480
00:34:40.400 --> 00:34:44.639
described it as looking like a deer
but not a deer. What do you

481
00:34:44.719 --> 00:34:49.400
do when that happen? Is is
it like Jurassic Park with the t r

482
00:34:49.599 --> 00:34:51.920
X, Like you don't move and
won't see you? Like, what do

483
00:34:52.000 --> 00:34:54.280
you do in that? So he
decided got it and run it there?

484
00:34:54.480 --> 00:34:59.199
He was just like getting out there. It's out of there. I don't

485
00:34:59.199 --> 00:35:00.920
know what I would do. I
can you almost see where you'd be like

486
00:35:00.960 --> 00:35:05.039
frozen though, right, like frozen
in t Yeah. As you're experiencing this,

487
00:35:05.159 --> 00:35:07.159
like I don't know, I don't
know what I do. A lot

488
00:35:07.159 --> 00:35:10.559
of people are asking some form of
do you think this is the same thing

489
00:35:10.599 --> 00:35:14.159
from the first story? Let me
ask you this as we get further in

490
00:35:14.159 --> 00:35:19.280
these stories, so you're obviously sharing
them for a reason. So what's the

491
00:35:19.320 --> 00:35:22.079
connection that you saw to these There's
a bunch of people like piggybacking off of

492
00:35:22.119 --> 00:35:28.800
each other. These I found so
I mentioned they had different authors. They're

493
00:35:28.840 --> 00:35:32.559
also months or about a year apart. And then they're also fasts of different

494
00:35:32.599 --> 00:35:38.280
parts of the country. Nothing like
what's connecting them except for there are similarities

495
00:35:38.400 --> 00:35:45.199
in like the height, the strange
way it walks, the seeming intelligence just

496
00:35:45.559 --> 00:35:51.320
like some other worldliness to it.
Yeah, they all kind of describe something

497
00:35:51.360 --> 00:35:53.400
that put them off what they saw
it. To me, that speaks to

498
00:35:53.519 --> 00:36:00.840
something else, something not natural in
terms of animal and my current working theory.

499
00:36:01.159 --> 00:36:04.280
You know, there's so one more
story to get through, but my

500
00:36:04.360 --> 00:36:08.239
current working theory is something like a
forest God, a forest in God.

501
00:36:08.480 --> 00:36:13.159
Yeah, I look up a forest
gump. Yeah, if you look up

502
00:36:13.199 --> 00:36:17.719
any picture of forest God. Uh, they look like really tall, deer

503
00:36:17.880 --> 00:36:23.360
like creatures with different, like somewhat
intelligent look in faces. A lot of

504
00:36:23.400 --> 00:36:28.599
people are commenting it reminds them of
like an alien or something that's fair.

505
00:36:28.760 --> 00:36:31.440
I mean, what's stirerst to it? That God or a million Dang,

506
00:36:31.480 --> 00:36:34.599
you just got real deep there.
I can't answer them, not don't.

507
00:36:35.480 --> 00:36:37.559
Like I said before, as we've
talked about, as we've shared so many

508
00:36:37.559 --> 00:36:43.440
stories now, the nighttime definitely throws
you off on being able to visually see

509
00:36:43.480 --> 00:36:46.360
the size of something. Yeah,
so that makes you wonder, is something

510
00:36:46.400 --> 00:36:51.360
that's really big but probably seemed just
gigantic, you know what I mean at

511
00:36:51.440 --> 00:36:53.760
night? So I'm not surprised by
that at all, But I don't know.

512
00:36:53.840 --> 00:36:57.000
I'm curious that that first one was
at night though, So yeah,

513
00:36:57.119 --> 00:36:59.760
land in water now though nowhere near
water on the second one, right,

514
00:37:00.039 --> 00:37:02.280
oh, Southern California, which I
think it the pretty dry eric. They

515
00:37:02.320 --> 00:37:07.159
don't have any water there. It's
a problem. There's no water in southern

516
00:37:07.159 --> 00:37:09.119
California. So yeah, point being
there, there seems to be no limit

517
00:37:09.199 --> 00:37:13.920
to where it's gonna go at least. Yeah, but it does have like

518
00:37:14.000 --> 00:37:17.000
the first one ran into the woods
afterwards, and you can see that this

519
00:37:17.199 --> 00:37:22.599
is like something that lives near the
forest. Possibly you should call that into

520
00:37:22.599 --> 00:37:24.840
the unknown. Yeah, it's a
desert god, Luke, maybe it's a

521
00:37:24.840 --> 00:37:28.320
desert baby. You know. That's
the last one, isn't there though,

522
00:37:28.679 --> 00:37:30.559
Well, I don't know. I
will say this though, this is what

523
00:37:30.639 --> 00:37:34.639
it's starting to remind me of.
Though. You saw the Dog, didn't

524
00:37:34.679 --> 00:37:38.480
you? The Black Dog. I've
heard truckers talk about it on the yard

525
00:37:38.559 --> 00:37:43.719
to say it comes to take everything
away from him, and it did it?

526
00:37:43.800 --> 00:37:46.239
Did it? Play? I loved
the guy at the back, see

527
00:37:46.280 --> 00:37:51.760
he's like yeah, yeah, I
know, he's all excited. That's such

528
00:37:51.760 --> 00:37:53.880
a good movie. That's what it's
it's like you're seeing these phantom things there.

529
00:37:53.880 --> 00:37:57.679
It's like the black Dog. Oh, I've about one more stories,

530
00:37:57.760 --> 00:38:00.079
so I'm going to venture off at
a different kind of story here, Luke.

531
00:38:00.519 --> 00:38:07.199
This is actually called Scary Wedding Guest
Stories by an anonymous person. I

532
00:38:07.239 --> 00:38:10.639
had a pretty low key beach wedding, mostly just family and friends. My

533
00:38:10.760 --> 00:38:15.440
wife, who i'll just called Tricia, invited more people than me, for

534
00:38:15.519 --> 00:38:20.199
sure. She invited her ex boyfriend
Kyle. I didn't know exactly how I

535
00:38:20.280 --> 00:38:23.599
felt about that at the time,
but I acted accepting and fine with it

536
00:38:23.639 --> 00:38:28.719
because I knew they remained close friends. There were about seventy five people at

537
00:38:28.719 --> 00:38:34.800
the wedding ceremony, including Kyle.
I didn't pay much attention this time of

538
00:38:34.800 --> 00:38:37.280
the day during the wedding because it's
obviously such a big day, my minders

539
00:38:37.400 --> 00:38:40.480
racing, there was so much going
on, But at the wedding Kyle was

540
00:38:40.519 --> 00:38:45.960
friendly to me. Throughout the wedding
reception, I noticed Kyle would constantly be

541
00:38:45.000 --> 00:38:47.960
talking to Tricia. Then when he
wasn't talking to her, he'd be looking

542
00:38:49.039 --> 00:38:52.719
in her general direction. Tricia and
I are married now. It's not like

543
00:38:52.920 --> 00:38:54.920
he had any sort of shot at
all so at the time I start to

544
00:38:54.960 --> 00:39:00.320
think maybe I was just being a
little too paranoid, even if it was

545
00:39:00.360 --> 00:39:05.039
slightly annoying. Kyle came along to
the wedding, which I thought was a

546
00:39:05.079 --> 00:39:07.440
tadbit weird. He didn't bring a
date. That's typically what somebody would do.

547
00:39:07.920 --> 00:39:13.199
My wife and I stayed in a
fancy waterfront hotel that night, and

548
00:39:13.239 --> 00:39:15.559
the next day we went back home. A couple of people who couldn't make

549
00:39:15.599 --> 00:39:20.400
it to the wedding came by the
house to congratulate us and drop off gifts.

550
00:39:20.880 --> 00:39:24.800
Surprisingly, Kyle stopped by as well. Tricia and I had recently moved

551
00:39:24.800 --> 00:39:29.159
into a new house together, and
Kyle claimed to stop by to check out

552
00:39:29.199 --> 00:39:31.760
her new place, also to drop
off his gift that he didn't give to

553
00:39:31.840 --> 00:39:37.119
us at the wedding reception. He
handed us the gift well, Tricia,

554
00:39:37.559 --> 00:39:39.679
He and a Tricia. The gift
an envelope and a Teddy bear holding any

555
00:39:39.719 --> 00:39:45.079
heart and on the heart was our
initials. I found this to be a

556
00:39:45.159 --> 00:39:47.519
nice, thoughtful gift. We gave
Kyle a tour of the house and he

557
00:39:47.559 --> 00:39:52.559
stayed for a beer, but after
that he said he'd better get going and

558
00:39:52.599 --> 00:39:57.840
he congratulated us before leaving. Inside
the envelope was a card containing one hundred

559
00:39:57.880 --> 00:40:01.079
dollars. As nice as I thought
the gifts were, I still believed he

560
00:40:01.119 --> 00:40:06.320
had some serious feelings for Tricia.
I asked her to ease back on the

561
00:40:06.320 --> 00:40:09.719
friendship a bit. She couldn't see
what I saw, though, apparently she

562
00:40:09.800 --> 00:40:14.719
swore up and down that they were
just very close friends and there were no

563
00:40:14.880 --> 00:40:17.840
feelings left on either side. Tricia
put the teddy beard next to some of

564
00:40:17.840 --> 00:40:22.400
the other gifts on our dresser.
While my wife and I were in bed

565
00:40:22.440 --> 00:40:28.159
together have an a romantic moment.
I stopped her when I heard this weird

566
00:40:28.280 --> 00:40:31.320
noise. I couldn't put my finger
on what it was, but it sounded

567
00:40:31.360 --> 00:40:37.400
like a small electrical component. I
looked around for my phone and shot it

568
00:40:37.559 --> 00:40:40.719
was on my nightstand. I chalked
it up just being a vibration from something

569
00:40:40.760 --> 00:40:45.960
like a text notification. Like Half
an hour later, lying in bed with

570
00:40:45.000 --> 00:40:50.079
the light off, I once again
brought up Kyle, asking if he texted

571
00:40:50.119 --> 00:40:53.519
her since the day before. She
said he had, which honestly annoyed me.

572
00:40:54.119 --> 00:40:58.400
I repeated myself saying I don't want
her talking to him, and told

573
00:40:58.440 --> 00:41:00.519
her I don't want her talking to
him anymore. She got a little mad

574
00:41:00.519 --> 00:41:05.440
at me for accusing her of being
interested in him at all. I assured

575
00:41:05.480 --> 00:41:10.800
her he was still interested in her, because why would he stick around and

576
00:41:10.880 --> 00:41:15.840
his ex's life like this. She
got back at me with her assurance that

577
00:41:15.880 --> 00:41:20.480
she doesn't knew him romantically at all, and that she's no longer attracted to

578
00:41:20.559 --> 00:41:23.880
him, and that she broke up
with him for that reason. She followed

579
00:41:23.880 --> 00:41:28.880
this up with she would ease back
on contact with him. I apologized for

580
00:41:28.920 --> 00:41:31.840
coming at her like that, and
we decided to go to sleep. The

581
00:41:31.880 --> 00:41:35.519
next day, when I got off
from work, Tricia told me that Kyle

582
00:41:35.599 --> 00:41:39.840
randomly blocked her on Instagram, and
when she texted him asking what's wrong,

583
00:41:40.000 --> 00:41:44.760
he replied, what do you care? I know you too are talking bad

584
00:41:44.800 --> 00:41:47.840
about me. When she tried texting
back asking what he was talking about,

585
00:41:49.079 --> 00:41:52.440
she said that he had already blocked
her. I wondered if maybe she butt

586
00:41:52.519 --> 00:41:57.159
dialed him on her phone while we
had that conversation the previous night, but

587
00:41:57.280 --> 00:42:00.880
when she checked her call history,
his name wasn't in there. I wasn't

588
00:42:00.920 --> 00:42:07.360
angry though, because him blocking her
met I was right. He did seleft

589
00:42:07.400 --> 00:42:12.320
pooings for her, and now he'd
be gone out of our lives. That

590
00:42:12.480 --> 00:42:15.199
night, while in bed, we
talked about us some more. Then I

591
00:42:15.239 --> 00:42:20.079
heard the little electronic vibrating again,
and I looked at the teddy Bear on

592
00:42:20.119 --> 00:42:23.000
the dresser. When I got up, I walked over to the teddy Bear

593
00:42:23.039 --> 00:42:28.719
and picked it up. My heart
dropped. I ran into the kitchen,

594
00:42:28.760 --> 00:42:32.039
grabbed a knife fromim there, and
started to tear the bear open. The

595
00:42:32.079 --> 00:42:37.159
inside of the bear's head was a
square electrical component wired so that it was

596
00:42:37.239 --> 00:42:40.039
very obviously a camera behind the left
eye in a microphone box wired to the

597
00:42:40.119 --> 00:42:45.440
left ear. This was connected to
some kind of bluetooth of vice or something

598
00:42:45.480 --> 00:42:49.400
would probably all a phone and to
send and receive data from it. We

599
00:42:49.480 --> 00:42:52.960
went to the police that night with
the Teddy Bear and filed a police report.

600
00:42:52.239 --> 00:42:57.199
We then hired a lawyer and pressed
charges against Kyle for invasion of privacy,

601
00:42:57.719 --> 00:43:00.000
and the judge ruled in our favor, and the judge required Kyle to

602
00:43:00.039 --> 00:43:05.920
pay US fifteen thousand dollars each.
Tricia also got a restraining order against him,

603
00:43:06.519 --> 00:43:08.440
and that was the end of him
in our lives, though we still

604
00:43:08.440 --> 00:43:14.039
do sometimes worried that he may pay
us an unexpected visit if he was crazy

605
00:43:14.119 --> 00:43:16.559
enough to wire a teddy bear to
spy on us and possibly watch us in

606
00:43:16.599 --> 00:43:22.239
the bed together. Who knows how
far someone like that is capable of taking

607
00:43:22.320 --> 00:43:27.559
things, because that's actually a shockingly
easy thing to do to so on.

608
00:43:27.800 --> 00:43:30.880
So I yeah, that's messed up. Look at the teddy bear. It's

609
00:43:30.960 --> 00:43:35.519
so cute. You know, you
gotta be crazy to do that shit though,

610
00:43:35.760 --> 00:43:38.159
Oh you know, definitely, I'm
sure you could buy something like that

611
00:43:38.320 --> 00:43:42.800
now. Oh yeah. Back in
the day you would add to like make

612
00:43:43.000 --> 00:43:45.840
you know, like rig that up. But now that you could buy anything,

613
00:43:45.039 --> 00:43:50.000
yeah, you could get like modules
all right, read rock, probably

614
00:43:50.079 --> 00:43:54.400
for like thirty bucks. People were
guessing the story as we went a long

615
00:43:54.559 --> 00:43:58.719
that story. They're saying, check
the teddy Bear. I bet the teddy

616
00:43:58.760 --> 00:44:00.880
bear. Kyle used stupid, But
there are a lot of things being said.

617
00:44:01.119 --> 00:44:05.079
It's obviously the teddy beard Ie people
were all over this from the beginning.

618
00:44:05.440 --> 00:44:07.199
When you get that gift, were
you as well? I kind of

619
00:44:07.239 --> 00:44:12.679
suspected when I heard, like the
mecan you said, there's an electronical noise

620
00:44:13.079 --> 00:44:16.039
in the room, and I was
just taking there's a bug, for sure,

621
00:44:16.599 --> 00:44:20.599
here's a bug. They're bugged.
Usually you have to get the teddy

622
00:44:20.599 --> 00:44:22.079
bear out of the sty card out
of the teddy bear. Though, someone's

623
00:44:22.079 --> 00:44:28.000
saying, how did he receive the
footage unless it was live streaming? Ooh.

624
00:44:28.119 --> 00:44:34.760
You can rig up long range Bluetooth
emitterrors and stuff like that and transmit

625
00:44:34.920 --> 00:44:37.199
data. Or you can also hook
it up to a Wi Fi, which

626
00:44:37.239 --> 00:44:42.079
would be even better because then you
could beam it across the world. They're

627
00:44:42.239 --> 00:44:45.960
really cheap. I could rig what
up for like forty bucks and put it

628
00:44:46.000 --> 00:44:50.400
at anything, but I wanted to. I've worked with a lot of like

629
00:44:50.400 --> 00:44:53.360
electronics stuff like that here recently,
and that that maybe something you shouldn't be

630
00:44:53.360 --> 00:45:00.760
claiming. No, no, but
I use it for like making yeah,

631
00:45:00.239 --> 00:45:05.639
connected light display to each his own. He brially planned this out though,

632
00:45:06.119 --> 00:45:08.440
Oh yeah, like I'm gonna get
my sweat in the door. I'm gonna

633
00:45:08.480 --> 00:45:12.519
be good. I'm gonna get to
this wedding, you know. If that

634
00:45:12.559 --> 00:45:15.639
all goes well, which I'm gonna
make sure it does, I'm going to

635
00:45:15.920 --> 00:45:19.880
then stop by their house the next
night, play it cool, get a

636
00:45:19.920 --> 00:45:22.440
tour, drake a beer, give
them one hundred dollars smooth things over?

637
00:45:22.480 --> 00:45:25.199
Why would you Why would you suspect
anything for me? I gave you a

638
00:45:25.280 --> 00:45:28.679
nice cart, I gave you a
hundred dollars, I gave you a cute

639
00:45:28.760 --> 00:45:34.639
teddy bear, A very premeditated and
very freaking weird saying to do debian it

640
00:45:34.679 --> 00:45:37.199
was really weird. He might as
well just came out and said, it's

641
00:45:37.360 --> 00:45:45.800
me hosting of a bitch. What
it's me hostin? It was me Austin,

642
00:45:45.920 --> 00:45:51.000
right, I mean, yeah.
But here's the thing, though,

643
00:45:51.760 --> 00:45:54.199
when you make the decision to do
something like that, if they find this

644
00:45:54.280 --> 00:46:00.960
camera, there's no turning back.
They know it was you. There's not

645
00:46:00.159 --> 00:46:04.400
like I wonder if I wonder if
Kyle did that, Like, yeah,

646
00:46:04.480 --> 00:46:07.199
you did it. If you get
caught, you're gonna be considered the creepiest

647
00:46:07.239 --> 00:46:12.239
dude ever and possibly have legal action
taken upon you, which he did.

648
00:46:12.599 --> 00:46:15.599
They got thirty grand total out of
it. Could bring one of them teddy

649
00:46:15.599 --> 00:46:19.119
bears to my hat. Yeah,
I'm saying I'll take watch sleep. You

650
00:46:19.119 --> 00:46:22.039
know, we'll take that thirty green
altogether. Dang. Anyways, now that's

651
00:46:22.039 --> 00:46:24.400
a cool story though it's simple one, but I thought it was a pretty

652
00:46:24.440 --> 00:46:28.480
cool one. Yeah, it's a
very realistic one too. You gotta be

653
00:46:28.519 --> 00:46:30.639
careful that you invite to your wedding, you know, Yeah, don't invite

654
00:46:30.800 --> 00:46:35.280
their X. The key was just
so adamant on he was a right all

655
00:46:35.320 --> 00:46:37.119
along. Right, you got to
keep throwing that little that little dagger in

656
00:46:37.159 --> 00:46:39.760
there that I knew I was all
right. You know, I'm smart because

657
00:46:39.760 --> 00:46:43.960
he's kinda bit like a mood.
Yeah, he's a little bit of a

658
00:46:44.039 --> 00:46:46.199
jerk about it all along. Here. You know, you want to fork

659
00:46:46.239 --> 00:46:51.000
out some money, you ship a
teddy Bear to Jeff Townsend Media in Indiana.

660
00:46:51.039 --> 00:46:53.440
Here, I'll take it a little
creepy though, but I'll take it

661
00:46:53.679 --> 00:46:55.639
good story. That was my last
one that I You have one more,

662
00:46:55.719 --> 00:47:00.480
right, Yes, we do have
one more cue up than music for you

663
00:47:00.719 --> 00:47:04.400
with that funky music, white boy, and we'll get you going, all

664
00:47:04.559 --> 00:47:08.679
right. This one takes place in
Wisconsin, and this actually comes to trouvea

665
00:47:08.920 --> 00:47:15.320
an officer in the Department of Natural
Resources. Okay, So, while working

666
00:47:15.440 --> 00:47:19.800
for the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources
of twenty seventeen, I was assigned to

667
00:47:19.800 --> 00:47:24.519
investigate science of a particular deer in
the South Kettle Moraine State Forests along the

668
00:47:24.599 --> 00:47:31.039
ice Age National Scenic Trick. The
descriptions suggested the deer suffered from chronic wasting

669
00:47:31.159 --> 00:47:37.159
disease. There were three different reports, each stating that the deer was malnourished,

670
00:47:37.679 --> 00:47:42.679
severely injured, and had a terrible
odor. My first stop was the

671
00:47:42.719 --> 00:47:46.599
deer had been wounded and a gang
green had probably set in. The part

672
00:47:46.639 --> 00:47:51.000
of the trail where the deer was
reported was difficult to access to the vehicle,

673
00:47:51.079 --> 00:47:53.679
so I ended up hiking. The
sightings were near one of the public

674
00:47:53.760 --> 00:48:00.320
shelters. The most recent report was
made about twenty four hours previous. I

675
00:48:00.400 --> 00:48:05.719
reached the shelter just this thunderstorm again
to roll in. I looked around quickly

676
00:48:05.760 --> 00:48:07.280
for the deer, but the rain
started to fall heavily, and decided to

677
00:48:07.320 --> 00:48:10.840
wait it out in the shelter.
The shelters of this area of the park

678
00:48:10.960 --> 00:48:17.440
are worst, are more like little
cabins and used by backpackers. Took off

679
00:48:17.480 --> 00:48:22.599
my backpack and set down. I
would soon overcome by the stench of rotting

680
00:48:22.760 --> 00:48:28.840
flesh came out of nowhere. It
was so strong that I was nearly gagging.

681
00:48:29.920 --> 00:48:31.480
I looked around the interior of the
shelter see if I could find the

682
00:48:31.559 --> 00:48:36.519
source. Then I thought I saw
something move past the doorway, but when

683
00:48:36.519 --> 00:48:39.639
I peeked outside, there was something. The stench then disappeared as quickly as

684
00:48:39.679 --> 00:48:45.400
it had manifested. I waited in
the shelter for maybe about another thirty minutes.

685
00:48:45.920 --> 00:48:50.000
The store kind of let up,
but the stints suddenly returned. I

686
00:48:50.039 --> 00:48:52.719
didn't know what was going on about
it. There was something terribly wrong.

687
00:48:52.920 --> 00:48:57.679
Can explain how I knew. I
just knew, and then heard something scrape

688
00:48:57.679 --> 00:49:00.719
against the side of the shelter.
It was a loud I looked out through

689
00:49:00.719 --> 00:49:05.639
the window and I saw it looks
like to be white antlers. Now that

690
00:49:05.679 --> 00:49:08.960
didn't make any sense at all.
It was early summer here Wisconsin's and bucks

691
00:49:08.960 --> 00:49:14.360
don't start growing their antlers until much
later in the season. If they were

692
00:49:14.519 --> 00:49:17.719
early, they would still be covered
with felt. I feared this must to

693
00:49:17.719 --> 00:49:22.559
be the injured deer, and it
certainly smelled like it was on a death's

694
00:49:22.559 --> 00:49:23.840
door. Try to get a bar. Looked out of the window, but

695
00:49:23.840 --> 00:49:29.760
the animal appeared to be moving towards
the door of the shelter. Whatever it

696
00:49:29.840 --> 00:49:31.840
was, I was about to see
it soon enough could it shake the feeling

697
00:49:31.840 --> 00:49:37.239
that there was something off about this
whole situation. I roved the gun twelve

698
00:49:37.280 --> 00:49:43.920
gage loaded with slugs I had packed
to dispatch the deer. I pointed at

699
00:49:43.960 --> 00:49:47.719
the door and I waited. The
doorway was stark because of the store,

700
00:49:47.880 --> 00:49:52.679
but I could still see well enough
to know the creature that walked into view

701
00:49:52.400 --> 00:49:59.039
wasn't an old injured deer. It's
about twice the size of a full grown

702
00:49:59.159 --> 00:50:05.960
male white tail, and its body
was absolutely skeletal. Its fur was long

703
00:50:06.119 --> 00:50:08.400
and straight, like the kind of
long hair you find out a dog.

704
00:50:08.960 --> 00:50:15.239
The parts were missed fur completely.
But the worst part was that head was

705
00:50:15.320 --> 00:50:21.440
like a skull, no hair,
barely any skin, just boning with antlers

706
00:50:21.480 --> 00:50:24.320
attached. And then seeing the eyes
in the sockets, I could see it

707
00:50:24.400 --> 00:50:28.840
had a tongue in its jaw,
and his teeth looked like those of a

708
00:50:29.280 --> 00:50:31.599
deer, but the lower jaw didn't
appear to hanging on by much. I

709
00:50:31.599 --> 00:50:37.039
didn't know what the thing was.
I was standing there in that dark,

710
00:50:37.159 --> 00:50:42.320
rain soaked doy and I fired at
it. I hit that creature three times

711
00:50:42.360 --> 00:50:45.599
center mass, and it ran away. It's weird because it didn't fall down

712
00:50:45.800 --> 00:50:50.920
and the faulter where it ran.
I waited another hour for the stone to

713
00:50:50.960 --> 00:50:53.800
pass ride before hiking out of there. I have never been so scared of

714
00:50:53.840 --> 00:50:58.400
my life. It was a shotgun. Couldn't stop it. There was nothing

715
00:50:58.480 --> 00:51:01.519
I could do if I ran into
it again. I finally reached my truck.

716
00:51:01.760 --> 00:51:06.519
I had no idea what to report
to my boss. I eventually decided

717
00:51:06.519 --> 00:51:09.239
to report that I never saw the
deer. I thought if I reforded the

718
00:51:09.239 --> 00:51:14.559
truth, you would raise red flags
about my confidence. Not long after that,

719
00:51:15.719 --> 00:51:21.639
I found another position within the department
as a conserracial ward. That is

720
00:51:21.679 --> 00:51:23.280
a deer that I would not want
to mess with. So well, again,

721
00:51:23.360 --> 00:51:29.360
we have this really tall deer.
Something otherworldly about it, something that

722
00:51:29.679 --> 00:51:35.280
immediately being in the yeah, yo
surrounding that put them at ill at ease.

723
00:51:35.920 --> 00:51:37.400
Yeah, the lights in my studio
are going crazy. It's scary.

724
00:51:38.039 --> 00:51:42.480
It was the paintitive. I don't
know why it doesn't come through. I

725
00:51:42.480 --> 00:51:45.159
don't see it enough. I think
it's just mine. Maybe it's my end.

726
00:51:45.199 --> 00:51:49.079
I don't that is you reminds you
of that video. I played this

727
00:51:49.280 --> 00:51:51.519
computer game when I was a kid. I don't remember. It would have

728
00:51:51.519 --> 00:51:54.960
been forever a gift where the deer
were hunting the people. It was like

729
00:51:55.000 --> 00:51:58.920
silly, right, like they'd try
to lure the human there with adult beverages

730
00:51:58.960 --> 00:52:01.039
and silly stuff. This is like
real life, like the deer is hunting

731
00:52:01.039 --> 00:52:06.079
the version whatever this thing is.
You know what's weird. It didn't seem

732
00:52:06.119 --> 00:52:09.360
to have any mallets towards him,
like it was just observing him. And

733
00:52:09.480 --> 00:52:15.039
he reacted because of the weird feeling
he got. Maybe, but he got

734
00:52:15.039 --> 00:52:15.920
the filling and was kind of praying
on him a little bit, right,

735
00:52:16.280 --> 00:52:22.519
maybe, so he saw the thing
that he was like, this shouldn't exist,

736
00:52:22.840 --> 00:52:27.239
and he fired at it. Now, this was the first guy to

737
00:52:27.360 --> 00:52:31.400
be on foot near it when he
saw it, and he reported to stench.

738
00:52:32.039 --> 00:52:35.960
I have seen other stories. There
are more than they see three stories

739
00:52:36.000 --> 00:52:39.239
about this thing, and some others
have mentioned the stench also. So a

740
00:52:39.320 --> 00:52:45.320
consistent feeling with all these stories of
is it's very tall, spinby looking limbs,

741
00:52:45.880 --> 00:52:51.719
A smelly smell, real smelly sound, bitch, real smellers, but

742
00:52:51.880 --> 00:52:58.159
also this feeling of other worldly kind
of dread just being around it. A

743
00:52:58.239 --> 00:53:01.199
lot of people are picking up on
the smell. Somebody even brought up didn't

744
00:53:01.320 --> 00:53:05.639
a deer what deer? And odor? Isn't that from the Steers story that

745
00:53:05.679 --> 00:53:07.280
you guys shared. We did talk
about an elk and an odor, right,

746
00:53:07.400 --> 00:53:10.760
yeah, there was an elkut odor. Now you mentioned they talked about

747
00:53:10.840 --> 00:53:16.159
like a giant elk and the smell
of rotted meat. Yeah, I bet

748
00:53:16.159 --> 00:53:19.480
there's so many stories of this.
Like people are just like, well,

749
00:53:19.519 --> 00:53:23.400
I saw this guy saw that.
Describe that visual of the jaw again.

750
00:53:23.840 --> 00:53:28.719
How did he ward that again?
He described the jaw as being just barely

751
00:53:28.840 --> 00:53:32.199
hanging on. Yeah, a lower
jaw. Someone said, Skinwalker thought it

752
00:53:32.239 --> 00:53:36.320
sounds like right, you know what. A lot of skinned Walker stories do

753
00:53:36.440 --> 00:53:40.119
sound like that too, So yeah, that's definitely a possibility. Uh.

754
00:53:40.880 --> 00:53:45.039
Like I said, all these these
deer stories though, they kind of have

755
00:53:45.239 --> 00:53:49.920
like this, and that first one
doesn't necessarily describe it as a deer and

756
00:53:49.960 --> 00:53:53.480
had like the sand legs up front, and he described it being very tall

757
00:53:53.599 --> 00:53:58.239
next to his thing, and it
was kind of like looking around and like

758
00:53:58.280 --> 00:54:00.960
a deer kind of does that you
know? Oh yeah, so like in

759
00:54:01.000 --> 00:54:05.079
my head, that sounds like a
deer. I found that story first,

760
00:54:05.639 --> 00:54:07.000
and then I kind of found these
otherwise. I was like, wait,

761
00:54:07.039 --> 00:54:12.960
this has some similarities to that one, and like all these days are really

762
00:54:13.000 --> 00:54:15.679
tall twice the size of a deer, which would be about eight feet tall

763
00:54:16.159 --> 00:54:21.960
as that one guy first I described, and uh yeah, thin legs.

764
00:54:22.199 --> 00:54:25.760
So does it make you want to
go hunting or fishing? I actually I

765
00:54:25.800 --> 00:54:30.280
always want to go fishing. But
uh, I've always had this thing where

766
00:54:30.320 --> 00:54:34.119
I would love to go cryptied hunting, you know, not you know hunting

767
00:54:34.199 --> 00:54:37.760
looks gun but trying honey with bitcoin? What does that mean? No?

768
00:54:37.000 --> 00:54:40.480
Like parentcia ho anywhere you say what
you would you say cryptid? Like created

769
00:54:40.519 --> 00:54:44.519
looking up? Yeah, looking for
like you know, bigfoot or something like

770
00:54:44.559 --> 00:54:47.079
that. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah I don't I don't believe in

771
00:54:47.159 --> 00:54:52.760
bigfoot, but I would love to
go bigfoot hunting. Do you not believe

772
00:54:52.800 --> 00:54:53.920
in Okay, and I'm telling you, I'm trying to think of had a

773
00:54:53.960 --> 00:54:58.840
word this. Do you not believe
in Bigfoot? Or do you not believe

774
00:54:58.840 --> 00:55:00.480
in bigfoot? Does that make any
in wording you there? I just don't

775
00:55:00.519 --> 00:55:04.079
know what you're going for. So, like, it's not that I don't

776
00:55:04.119 --> 00:55:08.159
believe people aren't seeing things. I
just don't believe it's Harry into Henderson style

777
00:55:08.280 --> 00:55:13.320
bigfoot. That's a pretty good that's
actually pretty good visual. I mean it's

778
00:55:13.440 --> 00:55:15.880
possible. Right, there's stuff out
there, we don't know what it is

779
00:55:15.000 --> 00:55:19.679
till there's definitely things out there we
don't know. Uh, And like,

780
00:55:19.719 --> 00:55:24.559
so these things might be not necessarily
animal kingdom related. They might be some

781
00:55:24.760 --> 00:55:30.480
sort of something old or something more
primal. So like, if it's not

782
00:55:30.559 --> 00:55:35.360
necessarily that it's like a a an
ape, but it might be something else

783
00:55:35.400 --> 00:55:37.320
out there. Let me let me, let me paint a picture for you

784
00:55:37.400 --> 00:55:43.079
here. Let's say you're walking your
cat one night or dog. It doesn't

785
00:55:43.079 --> 00:55:46.400
only matter you're walking your dog down
a dark street, you know little woods

786
00:55:46.440 --> 00:55:51.960
nearby? And and uh, which
version of this story is most scary if

787
00:55:52.000 --> 00:55:54.599
it jumped like all three stories that
you shared, which version would you least

788
00:55:54.599 --> 00:56:01.360
one encounter? And why the second
story the one with the like almost he

789
00:56:01.440 --> 00:56:07.039
described as almost like spider like legs
because they invent in all different directions.

790
00:56:07.440 --> 00:56:09.119
And what would you do? What
would you and your cat deer dog?

791
00:56:09.159 --> 00:56:14.079
Do? You? Well? All
right, so I would run because it's

792
00:56:14.119 --> 00:56:15.639
not a side arm if it's not
on you though, Yeah, I don't

793
00:56:15.679 --> 00:56:19.320
have a side arm on me.
I don't have a carry permit. He'd

794
00:56:19.400 --> 00:56:21.960
run, Eh, Yeah, I
would do because like a deer, though

795
00:56:22.000 --> 00:56:25.280
I might catch you. Yeah,
if it's maybe it's something also with long

796
00:56:25.840 --> 00:56:29.480
legs, it will definitely catch you, right, Yeah, but I will

797
00:56:29.519 --> 00:56:32.639
at least I get a little bit
closer to safety if I can. Someone

798
00:56:32.679 --> 00:56:37.119
said they'd be scared of somebody walking
their cat. I've seen the cat walking

799
00:56:37.199 --> 00:56:42.119
though I've actually seen this though you've
never seen somebody walking their cat epsy,

800
00:56:42.159 --> 00:56:45.280
you know. I will say,
though, I have this theory about the

801
00:56:45.280 --> 00:56:49.519
people who live down the road from
me. I just scared wives. I

802
00:56:49.519 --> 00:56:54.159
think they might be aliens because they
act like people in the sense that they

803
00:56:54.199 --> 00:57:00.400
are pretending to be normal. Like
it's not like a punstantly staring at them.

804
00:57:00.440 --> 00:57:02.719
Wherever you got a teddy bear,
you could do that. But like

805
00:57:02.840 --> 00:57:07.239
you know, I go outside and
know, like get the mail or something,

806
00:57:07.880 --> 00:57:14.199
and they'll be doing things that seem
like normal human activities but slightly wrong,

807
00:57:14.559 --> 00:57:15.480
and you're like trying too hard,
like this is the fling, Like

808
00:57:15.480 --> 00:57:19.000
they're trying too hard to do Yeah, it's almost like they're putting on a

809
00:57:19.159 --> 00:57:22.039
show of doing these things. So
they've been doing it for like a couple

810
00:57:22.039 --> 00:57:27.000
of years now. It's very strange. The waves, the acknowlogy, like

811
00:57:27.559 --> 00:57:30.119
never once there's like on the grass
without them over on, like I mean,

812
00:57:30.159 --> 00:57:35.039
you got a lavory here, like, I don't know. It's weird

813
00:57:35.079 --> 00:57:37.599
to watch people sweep their sidewalk,
like I don't see if people do that

814
00:57:37.880 --> 00:57:45.599
very often they're bore gam proud of
that sidewalk, or constantly shooting their basketball

815
00:57:45.639 --> 00:57:51.559
at the hoop over and over again
but constantly missing but never stopping doing it

816
00:57:52.039 --> 00:57:54.239
or moving from that spot. You
know, that same spot. Yeah,

817
00:57:54.320 --> 00:57:57.840
it's as good. Keep going back
to the exactly as well. When they

818
00:57:57.840 --> 00:58:00.880
get the ball they shoot again.
It may it's over and over. You

819
00:58:00.119 --> 00:58:04.199
never seem to actually, so they
don't catch it like out of the goal

820
00:58:04.199 --> 00:58:06.960
and like make it shorter. They
go right back to the spot. It's

821
00:58:07.079 --> 00:58:10.159
very strange. We need video evidence
of this. Well, anyway, they

822
00:58:10.199 --> 00:58:15.440
do a few of those things like
that, and uh, anyway, I

823
00:58:15.480 --> 00:58:17.639
don't know. They might be aliens. I think they are. If you're

824
00:58:17.679 --> 00:58:22.679
listening out there, feel free to
join. Try to lie you'ious neighbors and

825
00:58:22.760 --> 00:58:23.960
let us know if aliens or not. Now we all have to know.

826
00:58:24.519 --> 00:58:29.119
Okay, So I think the deer
one is the scariest for me. I'm

827
00:58:29.119 --> 00:58:32.280
just gonna say of that of your
three stories, DEAs come across my yard

828
00:58:32.320 --> 00:58:35.960
all the time, and I picture
and this happened to me, So yeah,

829
00:58:36.320 --> 00:58:37.559
I'll tell you what though. Let's
let's do what we usually do.

830
00:58:37.599 --> 00:58:42.000
Let's share a clip. We'll go
to the greatest movie ever made, Black

831
00:58:42.039 --> 00:58:45.679
Dog, for the greatest scene in
any movie ever, and we'll come back

832
00:58:45.880 --> 00:58:49.400
and we will each pick. Well, we thought the scariest story of the

833
00:58:49.480 --> 00:58:52.960
night that we share tonight was,
how's that sound sounds good? You saw

834
00:58:52.960 --> 00:58:59.760
the dog, didn't you? What
dog? The black dog? You mean

835
00:58:59.840 --> 00:59:04.039
like the led Zephyr's song No Cruise? And That's what I'm talking about,

836
00:59:04.239 --> 00:59:08.559
don't you. I've heard truckers talk
about it on the yard. They say

837
00:59:08.559 --> 00:59:12.159
it comes when you've been on the
road too long and pushing too hard,

838
00:59:13.639 --> 00:59:16.760
when you get greedy, to say, it comes to take everything away from

839
00:59:16.800 --> 00:59:27.360
it, and it did. I
was hauling a load up from Atlanta on

840
00:59:27.400 --> 00:59:30.679
my sixth straight Georgia run. It
was my daughter's birthday, and I thought

841
00:59:30.679 --> 00:59:36.320
I could make it home in time. I was on this long, dark

842
00:59:36.320 --> 00:59:39.119
stretch of I seventy five with nothing
to look up at the white line when

843
00:59:39.159 --> 00:59:43.880
I saw it it was in the
middle of the road, coming straight at

844
00:59:43.920 --> 00:59:58.159
me with this teeth beard eye staring. I swore through this and I lost

845
00:59:58.239 --> 01:00:04.480
control. Where do you come up
with the sheet? It's for real,

846
01:00:04.559 --> 01:00:08.800
West, Yeah, and I bet
you've seen UFOs and aliens with big eyes

847
01:00:12.800 --> 01:00:22.880
just a black dog. I yet, dude, it gets me every time.

848
01:00:23.000 --> 01:00:27.519
That guy is such an able.
I'll go kick it off. I'm

849
01:00:27.519 --> 01:00:34.239
going to be selfish Luke and say
I did love the theme of your three

850
01:00:34.280 --> 01:00:39.920
stories being consistent ish with each other, but it's hard to beat the crawl

851
01:00:39.960 --> 01:00:44.960
Space story. So I gotta give
you the crawl Space story, but I'll

852
01:00:44.960 --> 01:00:46.800
give you the creativity because you went
out and like found some of this low

853
01:00:46.880 --> 01:00:51.360
key stuff and I just went for
the cheap pop. Actually, I just

854
01:00:51.400 --> 01:00:53.239
wanted to really share that story because
I thought it was awesome. But the

855
01:00:53.280 --> 01:00:57.000
crosl Space story is really hard to
beat. Man. Now, yeah,

856
01:00:57.119 --> 01:01:02.119
I agree that cross Space one is
really messed up. I'm going to to

857
01:01:02.119 --> 01:01:07.400
be slightly different. I am going
to pick that uh first one though,

858
01:01:07.440 --> 01:01:12.480
with the person in the closet of
the little kid and that that was really

859
01:01:12.519 --> 01:01:15.079
scary. But that's just to be
a little different. The thing about those

860
01:01:15.119 --> 01:01:19.760
too. Your stories are always cool
to hear and kind of go down a

861
01:01:19.800 --> 01:01:22.960
rabbit hole, like you said about, because there's just so many things like

862
01:01:22.000 --> 01:01:27.239
that out there, of people just
experiencing these unknown things. These stories that

863
01:01:27.320 --> 01:01:30.400
I've shared, the reason they're so
terrifying is because, at the end of

864
01:01:30.480 --> 01:01:37.599
the day, more terrifying than any
creature, any monster, are actually some

865
01:01:37.800 --> 01:01:42.039
people. Yeah, humans could be
the most terrifying thing ever you think about

866
01:01:42.039 --> 01:01:45.639
it, And to me, that's
why those kind of stories always get to

867
01:01:45.639 --> 01:01:50.639
me more. Even though I love
discussing and sharing stories like yours, at

868
01:01:50.639 --> 01:01:52.119
the end of the day, I
think the humans got to be the scariest

869
01:01:52.119 --> 01:01:57.760
thing always. I agree, because
of what then they're like, you know,

870
01:01:58.400 --> 01:02:02.400
eight billion of us, So like
the odds of there are you?

871
01:02:02.679 --> 01:02:06.639
I think this actually they said,
the odds you're walked by like four or

872
01:02:06.719 --> 01:02:10.840
five murderers in your life, you're
definitely gonna come in contact with people who

873
01:02:10.840 --> 01:02:16.320
are just playing bad and like a
lot of people go their whole lives and

874
01:02:16.320 --> 01:02:21.760
that they were seeing these unknown creatures. Sure like that, but it's a

875
01:02:21.880 --> 01:02:24.719
much more dangerous world where you consider
the fact that a lot of people just

876
01:02:24.800 --> 01:02:30.679
are wrong and are bad well said, Luke makes some good girls go bad

877
01:02:30.960 --> 01:02:34.920
and I have enjoyed another episode of
her and my friend. These are some

878
01:02:35.039 --> 01:02:39.559
awesome stories. We do this every
Monday night at ten thirty pm Eastern Ish

That gets real into walking that cat dog.

880
01:02:45.079 --> 01:02:49.880
It might be eleven o'clock forgets on
some bitch, But who's judging.

881
01:02:49.920 --> 01:02:52.880
I'm not judging. I'm just thankful

01:03:20.960 --> 01:03:23.239
Jeff Towns and Media is housing everything, all the content I create and

891
01:03:23.239 --> 01:03:28.119
everything. Let's do this. Let's
let's do something a little different here.

892
01:03:28.320 --> 01:03:31.280
For those of you that have joined
late and missed the cross Space story.

893
01:03:31.679 --> 01:03:36.119
Why we'll go ahead and play for
you the second half of it that sound

894
01:03:36.119 --> 01:03:37.760
good to you. Luke will hit
the Charlitary story, then we'll go straight

895
01:03:37.760 --> 01:03:42.039

going to come back? Will you
