00:00i grew up in a small town in central arkansas every deer season around november my family and
00:14i would go to our hunting cabin near mina arkansas my great grandpa built the cabin in 1984. it was
00:20a nice cabin for the time it's slightly outdated now but it worked fine for my family and friends
00:25and i two years ago my friends austin and cody went with me to the cabin in late october for a
00:31pre-season hunt called muzzleload hunting we were scouting an area about a mile from the cabin
00:37looking for any signs of deer because we were considering putting a stand near the spot
00:42after splitting up and wandering around trying to find an area with the best lines of sight for a
00:46stand i came across a pile of rocks in the woods after closer inspection i realized it was a grave
00:53belonging to a man named ed crane we were not bothered more interested than anything
00:58we snapped a couple pics and after finding a decent spot for a stand we headed back to the cabin cody
01:04tried doing some research to find anything out about ed crane but he didn't come up with a whole lot
01:10fast forward three weeks we're back at the cabin for the official modern gun season this time it's
01:16just austin and i we were sitting in the cabin discussing where we should go for opening day
01:20and i decided i would try out the stand we had previously put up during muzzle loading season
01:25austin went about a mile and a half the other direction towards a small lake off the property to
01:29hunt i left the cabin around 4 45 a.m because i had about a mile and a half walk and wanted plenty
01:36of time to walk slow and get to the stand before daylight this isn't a national forest and you cannot
01:41drive any vehicles into the hunting trails we split up at the end of the road me going left towards
01:46the stand and austin going the opposite direction it was a normal walk for the most part i've been in
01:52these woods since i was nine years old and a mile walk was nothing out of the ordinary i finished my
01:58walk and approached the stand trying to be quiet as to not scare any deer that are bedding in the area
02:03as the sun slowly started to rise i couldn't help but keep looking over to my right to see the grave we
02:09had previously found it was around 30 yards from where i was sitting and it was thinly buried in
02:14surrounding brush there was just enough light to make out the mound of rocks through the leaves
02:19i saw something move out of the left side corner of my vision this was not frightening at all i'm
02:24completely used to seeing movement early in the morning while hunting if anything this was exciting
02:30i turned fully to the left but i could not locate what i was looking at there was no movement about that
02:36time i heard hey in a almost whisper scream coming from behind me this made me physically jump
02:44so hard that i shook the stand i flung my head around backwards but there was nothing there that i
02:49could make out after turning on my headlamp and panning my surrounding area for at least five to six
02:54minutes i took out my hand radio while shaking i radioed to austin asking if he was near me i got no
03:01response i continued calling in on the radio while looking back and forth for the next 20 minutes
03:08daylight was approaching and after chalking it up to being in my head i finally started to calm down
03:14the sun rose up over the trees burning off the thin layer of fog that was covering the woods
03:19this is around 7 am now i had almost forgotten about the incidents when i heard it again this time hey
03:26caleb it was in the same whisper type scream as before this time it was enough i grabbed my bag and
03:34gun so fast i accidentally left the hand radio on the seat beside me in the stand i climbed down the ladder
03:40so fast i almost slipped off i hit the ground and speed walked all the way back to the cabin peering
03:46over my back every 10 to 20 steps i opened the cabin door and austin was nowhere to be seen he was
03:52still hunting when austin finally did return to the cabin he was confused he kept asking if that was me
03:59screaming into the radio i explained to him my experience and i explained i never screamed his radio was
04:05clipped to his belt while he was standing in the doorway trying to make sense of what had happened
04:09and right as we were talking about it his radio started making this incoherent screeching sound
04:15not a static sound it sounded organic like some kind of animal was making it we listened intently
04:21and sat the radio right beside us for the rest of the day it never happened again we came back later
04:27that week with our other friend cody and i looked for my radio in the stand and on the ground around
04:32it it was nowhere to be found needless to say we no longer hunt in that spot we don't even hunt
04:39anywhere in that direction past the gate it was the weirdest most unexplainable experience of my life
04:45it was a cold december night i was hanging out with a few friends todd and tristan we were bored and had
05:00nothing to do so one of us came up with the idea of going to the nearby train station platform to take
05:05some pictures and goof off the platform isn't far from our houses when we got there we started taking
05:12pictures of the liminal space we found ourselves in after hanging out there for a little while it
05:19started getting even colder and we were hungry so we started to head to our car the path back takes
05:24us on a long foot bridge across a canal we spent some time on the bridge joking around and taking more
05:30pictures the mood could not have been better but the cold was getting to us so we started back on our
05:36way again the bridge was not wide enough for the three of us to walk side to side i was walking in front
05:42todd and tristan behind me we were joking and chatting as we walked tristan said something funny and i
05:49turned still walking and laughing at what he said when i noticed a man walking just feet behind tristan
05:54he looked to be in his late 30s his face was dirty and he was wearing a black and white plaid shirt and
06:00ball cap his arms were down at his sides in one hand was a cigarette and in the other was a large kitchen
06:07knife clear as day my blood ran cold when i saw it i quickly spun back around pretending i hadn't seen
06:13him for some reason i thought that was the best thing to do my fight or flight kicked in and i found
06:19myself speed walking to the end of the bridge i hoped that my friends would catch on and match my pace
06:25i glanced back at them to check and thankfully they were right on my tail but the man was too he was now
06:32so close that an outsider would have thought he was part of our group he stepped off the bridge and took
06:36a path going to the right my friend still having no idea the man was even back there fearing i was
06:42about to need to defend myself i held my tripod up like an axe the man seemed to get the memo and took
06:48the path to the left we walked a little bit further before i pointed him out to todd and i gave him a
06:53quick rundown of the situation we almost found ourselves in walking backwards we watched the man
06:59disappear into the darkness and we hurried back to the car we drove to the nearest gas station where
07:04we got food and talked it over the whole situation was just a weird story up until a few days ago when
07:10i was checking the pictures i had taken that night this picture shows todd under a light on the station
07:16platform but just beyond the light almost behind a freight car is the silhouette of the man
07:24the picture was taken at least 30 minutes before the situation on the bridge
07:28meaning he was watching us waiting for us to put the cameras down and turn our backs
07:33you hear stories of things like this happening but you never expect it to happen to you
07:37i still get chills thinking about how differently it could have gone
07:50my husband was in the military and after we got married we bought a house in a small town in north
07:54carolina despite being considered a military town it really was not a safe area to be in one night
08:01we even heard gunshots down the street from us but anyway because of his job he was gone for training
08:06operations often and he also worked nights when he wasn't having to travel this meant i was home alone
08:12most of the time at the time of this story i was in college full time so i was able to fill my days
08:18with lots of studying and homework to pass the time he wasn't home one night when i was writing an essay
08:23i was laying in bed with our dog simba and we both heard what sounded like rustling coming from above
08:28our heads simba started barking and growling which is unusual for him he's a pitbull mix and despite
08:35people thinking they're scary dogs he is a huge baby and had never acted like this before i thought it was
08:41mice so i texted my husband and he agreed he told me he'd call pest control the following day so i
08:47wouldn't have to worry about laying bait and traps myself two days later pest control came and did what
08:53i thought was a thorough inspection of the house there was some evidence of mice and roaches in the
08:57attic so he laid some baits and also sealed some entry points in our home however over the next week
09:04the rustling kept getting worse and worse and was always at night time and every time i would hear it
09:09simba would freak out and at one point his hair was literally standing up on his back
09:14this started to really freak me out so when i called my husband after this happened he assured
09:19me that it was the mice and they were just freaking simba out later that night just as i was about to
09:24fall asleep i thought i heard footsteps from above but since my dog didn't hear it i thought i was just
09:30psyching myself out being home alone so often i did have some anxiety especially at night time because
09:36i didn't feel safe without my husband home the next day i slept in pretty late and had woken up
09:42with a fever so i wasn't feeling great i got up to let simba outside the layout of the house was odd
09:48you had to go into the garage to open the backyard door and the entrance to the attic was right above it
09:54as i was walking to the door i felt like i was going to vomit not because i was sick but because the
09:59door had a huge dirty handprint on it and a bunch of smudges from the inside someone had been in there
10:06i assumed someone had broken in through the garage in the middle of the night so i took a picture of
10:10the door and called the police i texted my husband to tell him what was going on while i waited for
10:15the police but unfortunately he couldn't respond until later due to work the police came in just a
10:21few minutes since their station was right down the street i showed them the handprints and how i
10:26couldn't understand how someone broke in because i would have heard the garage door opening then i realized
10:31that maybe the rustling i was hearing wasn't mice and that the footstep i heard was actually a person
10:37i told this to the police and they immediately checked the attic it turned out some guy who lived
10:42with his family down the street from us was a meth addict and he had been avoiding staying at his
10:46family's house and so he had snuck into our garage when i was gone one day and had been living up
10:52there for a little over a week somehow pest control had missed him because he was hiding behind a
10:57bunch of boxes apparently the inspector was not as thorough as i had hoped our ring security system
11:03never even picked the guy up on camera entering our home so he must have entered another way thankfully
11:09we no longer live in that house or area and despite this happening a few years ago i still get scared
11:15being home alone at night for any amount of time i'm just thankful nobody got hurt
11:29the year was 2006. i had moved into a house with my college friend steven and his friend heather
11:35i worked overnight at a radio station a few times a week to keep my body regulated i kept the same
11:41schedule on my nights off which means i was up all night with way too much time on my hands
11:47something i like to do super late or past midnight was to stroll through a graveyard near my house
11:52i usually brought a camera and a tape recorder to see if i could catch anything strange
11:56i did this a few times and did capture a few photos that showed activity including a strange mass
12:02of color near a bench one night driving back home i listened to the playback of the cassette tape
12:07in my car of what i had just recorded on the tape i had asked if there was anyone here with us
12:13even though i was the only one there a weird exhausted voice replied with a simple no as if
12:20to say we were the only ones there when i heard this i had just about driven off the road i had chills
12:27and became terrified i know this was the point of what i was trying to do but i guess i didn't know
12:32how to react if i had actually caught something when i came home i woke up my roommate to seek
12:37some comfort he was less than empathetic and told me not to bring that crap in the house
12:42shortly after this incident things got weird one night in my room i was watching videos on my
12:48computer when the decorative leaves i had on the wall started swinging back and forth as if they had
12:53just been smacked by something another night i had come home after purchasing some things at the
12:57store i was in my room and i had left a plastic bag from the store on the floor as i was lying in bed
13:04the bag started making a crackling sound like crumpling a bag with your hands i looked at the
13:09bag it was just sitting there it kept making this sound and soon enough started moving and hopping
13:15across the floor all by itself i jumped up stood on my bed and called my roommate on the phone who was
13:21upstairs i told them to come downstairs to my room asap as soon as i got off the phone the bag immediately
13:28stopped moving and making noises my roommate thought i was crazy when i told him what happened he took
13:33the bag outside and checked for what he thought might have been a mouse or something in the bag but
13:37no such thing was found i also had one of my worst recurring nightmares in that room i've had a
13:43recurring nightmare since i was a kid where i feel like my eyes are being forced shut into sleep
13:48it happens after i wake up or before i fall asleep my teeth always start chattering and i can barely make
13:54any audible speech to tell it to go away i have never known what this was the times this has
13:59happened to me a few unpleasant things have come along with it one time i felt hands grabbing at
14:05me another time i saw a horrifying face in the closet one night in the room i began drifting off into
14:10sleep early and in between being awake and being asleep this thing started up again it was very weak
14:16at first and i taunted it saying is that the best you can do but it became powerful and hard to fight
14:22it felt like 30 full seconds of not being able to get out of this powerful force i couldn't move
14:27and i felt like my body was being spun around even though it wasn't finally it stopped i don't know
14:33if this is some sort of sleep paralysis or if what was happening in the room had anything to do with
14:37it early one morning at 5am what sounded like huge footsteps walking through somewhere in our place
14:43shook the whole house everyone was asleep except for me of course lying in bed it couldn't have been
14:51steven upstairs he was never this loud we lived near a military base so maybe it was from that
14:57but the way the loud booming stomps moved in succession was like some giant person walking
15:02through all these things were confusing and mysterious but it wasn't until one night when
15:06i snapped a picture of the three of us in the living room that my roommate and i knew that we had a
15:11presence in the house we were having a party what you're looking at is me taking a picture of us in
15:16the living room with our giant mirror on the wall i was holding my camera as still as i could yet
15:21there seems to be activity all around us i have no idea what those weird strings of lights are to
15:26the right of the lamp we have nothing that would give off any kind of light like that in the house
15:31to the right of that there seems to be a strange mass of light imitating a figure
15:35but the weirdest of all is the rising mass of yellow light coming between steven and i which looks
15:40to have eyes a face and a sinister smile atop a body maybe that yellow is a reflection from our kitchen
15:47light but there's a lot of it i've also tried retaking the same picture and those yellow lights
15:52don't come up anymore i don't know if something from the cemetery had followed me home or if there
15:56was already a presence before we moved in but what i told you was the worst of it and about 10 months
16:01later we moved out of that house not telling any future tenant or renter about it
16:16a friend of mine who i'll call john was 27 at the time and his former buddy who i'll call rich was
16:22around the same age rich was a very daring man if you will john at the time was struggling with life
16:28decisions and had very little friends rich and john belong to a hobby group of people who are
16:33interested in fire alarms exit signs and other life safety equipment kind of an unusual hobby but
16:39they're out there rich had a problem with going into abandoned buildings and stealing these devices
16:45and often bringing them home adding them to his collection or otherwise selling them on ebay while
16:50john didn't think it was right he was desperate for a friend and went along with him on his adventure
16:55but this adventure very well became a nightmare for john on november 18th 2019 they settled off for a
17:02trip to gary indiana and if you don't know gary it's not the safest place on the planet to say the
17:07least the trip would entail staying at a hotel in the nearby town of hammond and heading into several
17:13abandoned schools so rich could basically steal old and oftentimes rare life safety equipment it was
17:19going well for them until november 20th this day at approximately 7 at night john and rich went to
17:25the abandoned horace s norton elementary school at 1356 harrison boulevard they started making their way
17:32through the first floor the doors were wide open and i mean wide open the building smelled like sewage
17:38skunk and all mixed together they made their way to the north end wing of the building john watched rich
17:45rip down several old exit signs again john and i are against that but john was desperate for a friend
17:52as they made their way down to the south side of the building they entered the cafeteria it was pitch
17:57black except for the beam of their flashlights and there was some graffiti desks and books scattered
18:03you know the typical abandoned building scenes john was taking pictures throughout after the cafeteria
18:10they made their way to the gym little did john know his life was about to change forever john noticed a
18:16trail of blood with his flashlight and out of curiosity decided to follow it and what it led to
18:22was quite disturbing a 27 year old female laid there dead in a pool of blood it was gruesome as hell her
18:29arms were up with her hands in the shape of a dinosaur as john put it just the way john described the
18:34scene to me made me lose sleep for a couple nights john screamed and ran into rich and rich
18:40whispered shh they may hear us john was shaken up and showed rich the body to which he said just
18:47don't say anything to anybody and we'll pretend this never happened they left immediately but
18:52obviously shaking as soon as they got back to the hotel john called the police sure enough the woman
18:58had been missing for two days prior it didn't take long for the police to track down a text conversation
19:03between the woman who was now identified as 27 year old adriana saucedo and her murderer
19:09she was planning to buy some weed and an iphone apparently and the suspects had intended to rob
19:14her the robbery went wrong and they ended up killing her not before dragging her body into the gym of the
19:20elementary school and casually dumping it there just a day before john and rich went there sure enough
19:26it didn't take long for the police to track down the teen murderer and put him in custody the teen also
19:31turned in two others as well all these kids were charged as adults and the story is on the news as
19:36well john is no longer friends with rich for obvious reasons and this event still haunts john and i to this
19:43this day
19:51you
19:53you
19:55you
