NARRATOR: Alaska --

a vast, remote wilderness
twice the size of Texas...

ENOCH: There are dangerous,
unpredictable

forces at work here.

NARRATOR:
...in one of the most mysterious

corners of the globe.

A lot of things can kill you
out here without even trying.

NARRATOR: This is a place
hundreds of times more deadly

than the Bermuda Triangle.

MAN: Oh, my God.

Stories of alien abductions...

I believe it was a UFO.

NARRATOR: ...the paranormal,

of the Alaska Triangle.

♪♪

Alaska --
a mysterious and deadly place

where stories of apparitions
and the paranormal

curse the land,

from ghost ships
like SS Baychimo

that sailed crewless
for over 40 years

to haunted hotels
like the Alaskan in Juneau

where guests have jumped three
stories to escape its hauntings.

He was found in the street,
blood covering the walls.

NARRATOR: Could the spirits of
the Alaska Triangle

be conspiring to drive out
those who dare visit

and those who live there?

RICHARDS: Some of these cases
are so terrifying,

the victims are actually forced
to flee from their homes.

- Go, go, go! Go, go!
- Ah!

NARRATOR: Even hardy ghost
hunters have been chased off

by what they've discovered.

It came on our recorders.

[ Static crackling ]

NARRATOR: What are these ghosts
trying to tell us?

I think it's saying,
"I want you dead."

I'm shaking a little bit
because it's a little spooky.

NARRATOR: The deadly forces
of the Alaska Triangle

will seemingly stop at nothing.

Just devastating.

- Sarah!

♪♪

NARRATOR: This was once
Sarah Jebsen's idyllic cabin

before, it seems, a violent
spirit razed it to the ground,

forcing Sarah and her children
out of their home.

All the years and hard work
I put into this,

and this is what's left of it.

Makes me sad.

NARRATOR: Just one of many
ghostly encounters

from the Alaska Triangle

that could've cost
a family their lives.

This property just has, like,
this weird vibe,

almost like I lived on a vortex.

NARRATOR: Sarah's story begins
near the town of Sterling

in the south of Alaska.

Behind the picturesque setting,

this area is a hot spot
for unwanted spirits,

according to Tony Hernandez,
a local paranormal investigator.

This area has been populated

and traveled through
for thousands of years.

Alaska itself, there's so many
undisclosed burial grounds

from the old Indians.

NARRATOR: The swaths of hidden
native burial grounds

seem to act like a magnet
to unwanted spirits.

Do we have a lot of strange
and unexplained activity

within a certain defined area?

Yes, we do.

Where this activity is happening
is where people live.

NARRATOR: In 1999,
Sarah Jebsen moved

to a quaint trapper's cabin
in the woods.

She was 2 miles
from her nearest neighbor.

As soon as I, like,
stepped out there,

I was like,
"I got to have this."

I had, like, big plans for it.

NARRATOR:
Sarah's daughter Montana

was just 5 years old
at the time.

We kind of just played
outside a lot...

Look, girls. This is where
we're gonna live.

...kind of lived
the in-the-mud life.

There was something that said,
"This is yours," and I loved it.

NARRATOR:
Soon, though, it was clear

that Sarah and her children
were not welcome here.

Could the forces
of the Alaska Triangle

be at work
around her property?

Shoot! Ow!
Shoot!

The place was full
of carpenter ants...

Ugh!...all over my property.

They're biting me!
Brush them off!

Brush them off!Come here. Come here.

They came out of the woodwork,
got really bad.

I'd be laying in bed at night,

and ants would be
falling on my face.

♪♪

[ Screams ]

We started to notice just a lot
of, like, bizarre happenings.

[ Electricity buzzing ]

The light would flicker
on and off.

and there is no new number.

If you'd like to make a call,

please hang up and try again.

[ Telephone beeping ] If you need help,

hang up
and then dial your operator.

Just the weirdest
things like that.

NARRATOR: It seems Alaska
could be a breeding ground

for paranormal activity.

Some experts believe
there's more here

than anywhere else in the US.

One reason could be
the many native burial grounds

drawing unwanted spirits
to the area.

Sarah discovered her home
may have been built on one.

JEBSEN: And I started walking
around my property,

and I found all these,
like, little holes,

and then I found holes
that looked like a grave site,

big enough for a body.

So I thought, "Maybe I live on
an Indian burial ground."

NARRATOR: So could it be
the ghosts

of these ancient burial grounds

that were terrorizing Sarah
and her family?

We're sorry.
We're sorry.

Jeff Richards may
have the answer.

He's an intuitive and an expert
in the paranormal.

Building a home on the sacred
grounds on burial lands --

I mean, that can
potentially be problematic.

That can be a bad idea
because those grounds

are protected
in the living world,

but they're also protected
in the spirit world,

and those energies might take
action against whoever is there.

NARRATOR: But now, had
the Triangle produced a spirit

much more malevolent,

more terrifying that
was targeting Sarah herself?

I started having, like,
a dream that I was,

like, digging --
digging a hole under my cabin.

I probably had it
about 20 times.

Why would I want to dig a hole
under my cabin?

It never really made sense.

NARRATOR: At night, Sarah's
dreams of digging kept recurring

until one evening.

♪♪

I heard this woman's voice.

Like, it happened
probably a good 15 times.

NARRATOR: Who was this woman
speaking to Sarah?

Soon, she'd have an answer

when she took pictures
of her children.

One she had processed
would shock her to the core.

This is the actual photograph.

JEBSEN: It was very blurry,

but you can see
this woman's face and her hair

and her head turned,
looking at me.

It's scary to see.

NARRATOR: But her daughter
Montana saw something

even more terrifying.

In the photo,
there's a hole in her head.

♪♪

NARRATOR: So why was this
female spirit targeting Sarah?

The strange forces
of the Alaska Triangle

were coming together
to haunt her home.

Soon, Sarah would
uncover the reason.

An act of the utmost evil
may have taken place

in her cabin --

murder.

[ Woman screams ]

[ Gunshot ]

♪♪

NARRATOR: The Alaska Triangle --

thousands of people have
mysteriously gone missing here,

many possibly driven out
by dark spirits.

RICHARDS: The Alaska Triangle is
absolutely riddled

with the paranormal.

We have more cases of hauntings
and possessions

than many other places
in North America.

We have many different types
of phenomena

that are all manifesting
themselves in this space,

and none of them are really
connected to one another.

NARRATOR: The strange forces
of the Triangle

had violently come together

over Sarah Jebsen's home
near Sterling.

A ghostly figure had appeared
in her photographs,

and she'd had bizarre dreams
of digging under her cabin.

Sarah realized this was
a message

that she needed to act on.

I ripped up the main floorboard
out of the cabin

and started digging that hole.

NARRATOR: She was shocked
by what she found.

♪♪

I found six tiara candleholders
from the '70s

with melted wax in the bottom
and a woman's blouse.

NARRATOR:
But as Sarah dug deeper,

she uncovered something
even more horrific.

I found almost, like,
finger-bone fragments,

and I found hair.

NARRATOR: Now Sarah was closer
to a horrifying truth.

Perhaps someone was buried
under her home

and had returned to haunt it.

In an abandoned car
on her property,

Sarah found another clue
to the mystery --

a secret diary belonging
to a man

who once lived in the cabin.

This guy's, like, personal,
like,

deep thoughts
were all in that diary,

and the last journal entry
in there was about his mistress.

She just had had enough
and wanted to leave.

NARRATOR: After she threatened
to leave him,

the jealous lover wrote
chilling words to his mistress.

He was like, "Well, if I can't
have you, no one can have you."

NARRATOR: Sarah came to one
terrifying conclusion.

The women threatened by her
lover was the ghostly voice

speaking to her in her dreams.

So nobody else could have her...

this guy killed her...

[ Woman screams ]

...and buried her
underneath my cabin,

and that's what she'd been
trying to tell me

with her whispers in my dreams.

NARRATOR: But instead
of settling the spirits,

Sarah's discovery would unleash
something far more sinister.

WHITE: There was this one time
me and my sisters

and my mom were all sleeping
in the living room.

...but the dark spirit
wasn't done with Sarah yet.

JEBSEN: All of a sudden,

launched a physical attack.

And I could actually feel
something pulling me

I felt petrified.

Like, I was...

I was, like, dead,

NARRATOR: Expert intuitive
Jeff Richards

has been examining
Sarah's case.

RICHARDS: I've done over 185
investigations,

and I've been attacked
physically twice by a spirit.

It happens
in very extreme instances,

and when it does happen,
it's very worrisome, you know?

If a spirit has that type
of power,

then we have to sort of wonder
what else they're capable of.

♪♪

NARRATOR: Sarah finally sought
help from two of Alaska's

leading paranormal
investigators --

Neelie Lythgoe
and Tony Hernandez.

For years, they've been tackling
some of the Alaska Triangle's

most terrifying spirits.

What sparked our interest
in the case initially

was the violent activity that
was happening on the property.

We had never had a report
of this high of violence

in a haunting situation.

NARRATOR: So Tony and Neelie
made the 140-mile journey

to Sarah's home in Sterling.

HERNANDEZ: The location was
the backwoods, you know?

And you're driving down
the road, and it's spooky.

You know, you're spooked.

I was spooked a little bit.

Hi.
Hi. Neelie.

Sarah.
Tony.

Right off, I know we're...
Something is there.

You can feel it, at that point.

We're here to help.

I was concerned for Sarah.
She was extremely distressed.

NARRATOR:
Soon after setting up their cameras and audio recorders

to capture any evidence,

the ghost hunters started
picking up readings.

I even get a little tense
right now thinking

of that activity level
that was there.

♪♪

And then it came
on our recorders.

NARRATOR: This is
a never-before-heard clip

of the original recording.

Clear as a bell, "I want you."

NARRATOR: But then a far more
menacing warning...

It threatened us.

"I will get you in time, Tony."

Let's go back outside,
guys.

This was where I got unsettled.

It was one of the most intense
paranormal activities

that I've had.

NARRATOR: These were
no empty threats either.

Down the end of the hall,
I saw the beads...

I mean, just moving on their own
like they were dancing.

I didn't know if those beads
were going to, like,

wrap around my head
or what was going to happen.

And that's when we saw
the ball of light.

set foot here.

In the south of Alaska
near Sterling,

Sarah Jebsen was being hounded
by a violent spirit.

Ah!

Paranormal detectives
Neelie Lythgoe

and Tony Hernandez

went to her haunted home
to investigate.

The evil entity
appeared to threaten them.

Then it transformed itself
into a terrifying orb of light

and started heading
towards them.

It was huge,
a basketball-sized sphere.

It was the weirdest thing ever.

I wanted to see
if it was hot or cold.

And next thing you know,
Neelie is walking up to it,

reaching out her hand
to this thing.

No!

And the thing shot off
out the window.

We gathered our equipment
and drove home.

We'll be in touch.

Okay.

NARRATOR: Even after years
of ghost-hunting,

it was an encounter Tony
and Neelie would never forget.

We've investigated many cases
in the state of Alaska.

Sarah's case was one of the
scariest cases we've ever done.

NARRATOR: When Neelie and Tony
got back to base,

they reviewed their evidence.

They'd captured one
inexplicable image.

This is the never-before-seen
photograph

of what the investigators
believe is the apparition.

HERNANDEZ: The type of
apparitional photos that we got,

the orb floating around --

I was definitely
scared for Sarah.

Something is there and either
wanted her to leave

or wanted to dominate her
in some way.

♪♪

NARRATOR: The investigators
listen back to their recordings

for any signs
of what ghost hunters call

electronic voice phenomena.

They found one sinister message,

and this is
the original recording.

Where do bouquets happen?

Usually at funerals.

Is it referring to the dead,

or is it referring to burials
on the property?

NARRATOR: So could Sarah shed
any further light

on what the ghost that
terrorized her is trying to say?

For the first time,
she's about to hear Tony

and Neelie's
disturbing recordings.

♪♪

See?
That's super creepy.

I mean, it's scary to think that
something I can't see wants me.

He terrorized me.

That really makes me
kind of sick to my stomach.

NARRATOR: Could this be
a message

from the mysterious holes
Sarah found under her home?

Is this evil spirit
a former resident

who she believes murdered
his mistress?

[ Woman screams ]

[ Gunshot ]

When I ripped up that floor
in the cabin,

there were fake flowers
under there too.

It makes me want to look.

Intuitive Jeff Richards is particularly interested

in the paranormal spirits
of the Alaska Triangle.

He's found something no one else
had noticed in the recording.

I think it's saying,
"I want you dead"...

Soon, Sarah would find out,

when she invited an old friend
to stay for a while.

Recently, he had lost
his girlfriend,

so he had a very empty spot

So good to see you, dude.

He came in, and I made him
smile and laugh,

and he was
a good friend of mine.

NARRATOR: But it seemed
the paranormal presence

in Sarah's cabin

took hold of her friend.

things started changing.

He started getting very

very controlling,

by Qituvituaq's forefathers

as a warning
of the danger of giants here.

LITCHARD: There's a place
in Alaska

called the Headless Valley.

According to the native people,
there was a tribe of giants,

and they were not
to be messed with.

When people went there
to explore,

they'd often find
decapitated bodies.

Giants, they're violent
if you enter their territory,

but people didn't listen until
enough people went missing.

So there's places where
we're not supposed to go.

NARRATOR: But tales of giants
here are not mere folklore.

During the early 20th-century
Gold Rush,

a discovery was made near Atlin

in the southeast corner
of the Alaska Triangle

that would make news headlines
across the USA.

Researcher Jonny Enoch
has uncovered a press report

from November 18, 1900,

showing startling
scientific evidence

of giants in Alaska.

I found this article
from the 1900s that says,

"Skeletons of giants in Alaska.

Ancient cemetery uncovered
in the Atlin Gold District."

This is incredible because
this really lends credibility

to the stories we've heard
from Native American traditions

about giants.

NARRATOR: After digging at the
Yellowjacket Mine in Atlin,

a gold prospector,
James L. Perkinson,

made a find beyond
anything he ever expected.

"Five skeletons nearly complete
were exhumed,

and each is the set of bones
that belonged to a giant.

One of the skeletons
measures over 7 feet in length,

so the men must've been
considerably over that height,

and the men
were of gigantic frame."

NARRATOR: The forearms
of these monsters

were described as enormous,

and they were armed
and dangerous too

with 3-foot wooden spears
found alongside their bodies.

For Jonny Enoch,

this is evidence that giants
existed in the Alaska.

Could this be verifiable proof
that at one time,

those ancient lands of Alaska
were inhabited by giants?

NARRATOR: But giants
investigator Hugh Newman

suspects the true number
of giants

in the Alaska Triangle

has been covered up
by the scientific establishment.

In 1936, on the Aleutian Islands

in the southwest corner
of the triangle,

a giant skull
was found measuring

nearly twice the size
of a human's.

However, there's little
in the history books

about this
groundbreaking discovery.

NEWMAN: It was found on
Kagamil Island,

and it was so large
that it was claimed

that it would've held
the largest brain

ever discovered
in the western hemisphere.

Now, what's really interesting
is that it was discovered

by the head of the Smithsonian
Institution, Ales Hrdlicka.

NARRATOR: But the well-respected
anthropologist Hrdlicka

had previously questioned
the existence of giants.

NEWMAN: He had declared publicly
to the world,

all the giant discoveries
that had been found

over the last 50 to 70 years
were hoaxes and so forth.

NARRATOR: Hugh Newman has
uncovered evidence

that the giant skull
was registered

with America's
National Smithsonian Museum,

but he cannot trace
what has happened to it.

We even have the accession card
as well,

proving that it was discovered,

proving that it was given
to the Smithsonian,

proving that it really existed,

so that in itself is really
intriguing in its own rights.

NARRATOR: Four years later,
in 1940,

on the Aleutian Island
of Shemya,

more giant skulls and leg bones
were discovered.

They were found during
excavation work

by the military
for World War II.

They were building
some air strips

to help with the war effort.

People there discovered
giant skeletons.

Some of the skulls were at least
two or three times the size

of an average human skull,
completely blew them away,

and there were many of them,
not just one,

and so this really opened up
a whole possibility

that there could be a reality
to these giants in Alaska.

NARRATOR: This evidence
was later revealed

to the world-famous
biologist Ivan Sanderson

when two servicemen who found
the bones wrote to him

about their important discovery,

but when Sanderson tried to
trace these giant artifacts,

the US authorities
had no record of them.

The bones, it seemed,
had been collected by academics

then mysteriously disappeared.

They were never to be
heard of again,

and so the problem is is that
we've got this massive cover-up,

almost like a conspiracy,

to not bring giants
into the historical time line.

NARRATOR: So could scientists
and the US authorities

be hiding the existence
of giants in Alaska?

Could this superhuman race
one day reappear in these lands?

Cryptozoologist Lance Hightower
has been investigating

the stories of giants here.

At this point, we know that
thousands of people have gone

missing without a trace,
never to be found again,

but who's to say that people
couldn't go missing

because of giants?

And just because we haven't
seen them

doesn't mean they don't exist.

NARRATOR: What is certain is
that the numerous legends

of these monsters
cannot be ignored.

If there's one place
on the planet

where such creatures
could exist,

it could only be in a land
as strange as this --

in the deadly and treacherous
Alaska Triangle.
