Next on "Paranormal Caught on Camera"...

...bloodcurdling screams

terrorize a Colombian town.

This scream is terrifying.

I don't know what it's saying,

but whatever it is, I'm listening.

A father and son are hunted by a mysterious creature.

Go, go, go!

It was Bigfoot-like. I can tell you that.

A man's home is haunted...

Oh,.

...by a poltergeist with a twisted sense of humor.

Put the shower on.

Oh, my god. Thank you.

This is sort of a cohabitation situation.

Mysterious aerial phenomenon

baffle US Navy pilots...

These guys know what things look like when they're flying,

and they're shocked by what they're seeing.

...and even more paranormal footage

you have to see...

God, what is it?

...to believe.

There are bone-chilling urban legends

that send shivers down one's spine --

Bloody Mary, Slenderman,

The Hook.

Deep down,

what aspects of these legends scares you the most?

Is it the shock factor, the gory details,

or is it the idea, however far-fetched,

that this legend could actually be true?

That fear might be the reason

why the terrifying curse of La Llorona,

the weeping, wailing woman,

is one of the most infamous legends

in Latin-American culture

and why one Colombian village stood frozen in terror

when they believed La Llorona came to pay them a visit.

The Colombian town of Piedecuesta --

In the fall of 2017,

in the dead of night,

residents and local police

were drawn to this construction site

by what sounded like a woman's bloodcurdling screams.

The police search in vain

for the source of the screams

while the residents huddle in fear,

a few of them with only one thought in mind,

could this be La Llorona, the Weeping Woman?

La Llorona means the Weeping Woman,

and she's probably the most famous ghost

legend in Latino cultures.

The story goes that there was a beautiful young woman,

who kind of suffered from ego and vanity.

She fell in love with a foreign man, had children with him,

and her love affair with him didn't go so well.

The only affection he gave to anyone in the family

was to the children,

and she became incredibly jealous of the children.

She ends up throwing her kids into a raging river

and immediately regrets the whole thing,

and as she tries saving her children,

she ends up drowning herself,

thus killing the children and herself.

And because she committed the ultimate sins,

murder and suicide, she's cursed to forever roam the Earth,

looking for her children.

You will hear her crying.

Usually, she's heard weeping very, very loudly

because she's looking for them.

Did these screams belong to

the ghost of La Llorona

searching for her dead children in Piedecuesta?

So this scream is terrifying.

Whatever it is, I'm listening. I'm heeding whatever it is.

It's terrifying.

It's definitely what you would think of

when you think of La Llorona.

All of the witnesses tell of this sort of wail.

I think anytime you hear bloodcurdling screams,

even if you know the source, even if it's a horror movie

that you sat down to watch, your blood goes cold,

and the hairs on the back of your neck stand up.

You are just in a state of,

"Okay, what's gonna happen next?"

And here, we're outside.

It's just the streets, abandoned building,

and you're hearing these screams?

Whatever is causing it, it can't be good.

But then suddenly,

the police find what appears to be a dress.

Could it really be the Weeping Woman's nightgown?

But if this truly belonged to a disturbed ghost,

was burning the robe really a good idea?

The last thing you ever want to do is burn a haunted object,

and the reason for this is,

is that energy will now be released.

The law of conservation of energy says that energy

can neither be created nor destroyed.

It only changes form,

so if it's connected to an object,

if it is infused in any way with that object,

once you destroy it, it now needs someplace to go.

It needs someplace to harbor.

But the screaming didn't end there.

According to Alexander, the wailing continued

night after night for six more months until finally,

priests put an end to it.

Although it's possible the Weeping Woman has moved on

to another town in search of her children,

Piedecuesta will not soon forget her screams.

It really speaks to

just how unnaturally monstrous

we find murdering mothers.

I mean, we don't tell these stories about fathers

who murder their children.

These are stories we tell about mothers

who murder their children, and the murderous mother

as an iconic figure, in folklore, in popular culture,

in film, in literature

is really a thing our society struggles with,

so there is no wonder that we have legends cross-culturally

about this particular idea.

It's one thing to hear about La Llorona.

It's another thing to hear her weeping.

Coming up, another bizarre phenomenon

is seen floating in the sky.

God, what is it?

There are phenomena in this world that are so bizarre,

so incomprehensible that our minds will do anything to try

and make sense of the event unfolding in front of our eyes.

It is in those moments that we tend to latch on

to something greater than ourselves

as a kind of explanation.

It's a bird. It's a plane.

It's...

Is that Jesus Christ?

On a spring evening in Burbank, California,

Pablo Morales and his wife were hanging out with friends

when they suddenly noticed something in the sky.

Hey, my name is Pablo Morales, and I filmed the video.

There was a, like, a 8-foot to 10-foot object

that was just, like, hovering up in the sky,

so I took my phone out, and I started filming it.

Is that Jesus Christ?

Please, please.

Oh, my god.

I wasn't really gonna post it

because I was kind of embarrassed of,

like, you know, how I was kind of scared.

Please, please. Oh, my god.

But then I was just like, you know, like,

I want to post it because I want to --

I really want to know what it was.

The reason I was freaked out was I seen this black object,

and it was floating in the sky,

and it was floating straight, so it looked like,

honestly, like a person was coming out of the sky,

and I'm kind of a religious guy, you know?

So I believe in Jesus Christ, so when I seen that, I was like,

"Is this Jesus Christ coming back?"

McNEILL: My first thought was, "It's Jesus," too!

It looks like Jesus.

Like, it looks in that tradition of saints and religious figures

appearing in manifestations as they appear in religious art,

depictions of them.

If someone is gonna come out of the heavens at us,

it's not just gonna be any old Joe.

It's gonna be someone important.

Hello?

But upon further observation,

Pablo realized that the figure most likely wasn't Jesus,

and that's when he became much more concerned.

And then once I started noticing that it wasn't, you know,

Jesus Christ, and, you know, that it wasn't --

It looked like a man, you know, and everything,

but that's when I started

getting a little bit more creeped out, too,

because I was like, I didn't know what it was.

It went behind the tree, and I can't see it no more.

Oh, no, it's right there.

I live five minutes away from an airport.

I have a drone and I cannot fly it around

because there's a no-fly zone around here,

so I knew it wasn't drones.

I asked my buddy, "You think that's a balloon?"

But there's no way it was a balloon

because a balloon wouldn't fly like that, you know?

It would be flapping everywhere.

There would be some balloons going this way,

some balloons going this way.

So if it wasn't an inanimate object

and not necessarily divine, what then could it be?

Perhaps it's a flying entity that has been reported

flying through the sky since the Middle Ages --

a witch.

When I first saw this flying entity, I was thinking,

"This just looks like a, you know,

cloud of balloons or something,"

but then I started remembering a few other instances

that took place in Santa Monica and New Mexico and Mexico,

Monterrey, Mexico, actually, of this flying being that looks

almost exactly like what's pictured here.

The term transvection was commonly used back

in the Dark Ages

as a way to describe the activity of witches,

witches who were reported to fly either

using forks or broomsticks or other methods.

Some even say that the Devil possessed them,

or the Devil caused them to levitate

and move from location to location,

and this was the evidence that they were unclean

and were of the Devil and should be persecuted.

Are we looking at true transvection,

the actual flying of a person?

I don't know.

In the video, you see that it goes behind

my neighbor's house.

In the beginning, I was shook, so I really didn't get it

to go run after it, but maybe 10 minutes later,

I did get in the car with my wife, drove around the block.

I looked up on the trees to see if there was balloons, you know,

that got caught or something or anything,

but we found no traces of anything.

Though it may not have been the Second Coming

Pablo originally thought it was,

the flying being did leave a lasting impression.

I mean, it gives me goosebumps, you know, like,

thinking about it sometimes, but it was just something

that I was just, like, in awe about.

Like, I'd never seen that in my life.

Is that Jesus Christ?

Please, please.

Oh, my god.

Coming up, a mischievous poltergeist haunts

a man in Belgium.

I don't -- I want to know what's happening.

Moving into a new apartment should be a happy time

heralding new beginnings,

but naturally, there are exceptions.

Soon after settling into his new home,

Nicolas de Scheemaecker began to feel nothing

but fear and depression.

Something or someone did not want him there

and proceeded to make Nicolas' life a living hell.

Oh,.

It was the summer of 2017

in Bruges, Belgium.

Nicolas de Scheemaecker was going through

a rough patch in his life

and was looking forward to a fresh start in his new place,

but a few months after he moved in,

Nicolas' mood did not improve.

Instead, he began to feel oppressed

by his new surroundings as if he were not welcome.

Holy.

I'm Nicolas and I filmed the video.

And it only got worse from there.

It seemed that the more time Nicolas spent in the apartment,

the more depressed he became.

It was then that Nicolas began to experience

what seemed to be paranormal activity around his apartment

from sensing something was watching him

to feeling gusts of wind

when no windows or vents were open.

Eventually, Nicolas started filming these occurrences,

helping him come to terms with the fact that

what he thought was happening was actually happening.

This is what's happening right now, lights going on and off.

If there's somebody here, please make your presence known.

Holy.

What made matters even worse

was that the more the activity continued...

...the more stressed Nicolas became...

Oh!

...and so on.

I don't -- I want to know what's happening.

But instead of claiming defeat,

Nicolas changed his attitude.

He had signed a lease and couldn't move,

so with all of his willpower,

he decided to make peace with the entity.

Put the shower on.

Oh, my god!

Thank you.

We can see him in these videos

begin to treat this presence differently when he said,

"Thank you," when it turned on the shower.

Thank you!

He suddenly is grateful.

Like, this is sort of a,

you know, cohabitation situation.

The new change in attitude worked,

and Nicolas began to see the haunting in a new light.

Perhaps the ghost was not trying to scare him

but instead to make him feel better, to make him laugh.

Perhaps it was the spirit of his deceased grandfather.

Thank you.

Oh, my god..

.

Oh,.

The guy swears that it's his grandfather

that's just trying to cheer him up

and get him through a rough patch in his life.

A lot of times, this helps people

through the haunting process.

Most people when they're dealing with the supernatural look

for explanations that apply to them.

DE SCHEEMAECKER:.

Oh!

And he's also doing that.

He knows someone on the other side

who he thinks might have a message for him,

might want to communicate with him.

Oh,.

I think that's quite reasonable.

But just when Nicolas thought

he had it all figured out,

he received an e-mail from a former tenant

that suggested it wasn't his grandfather after all.

Thank you.

It's a candle, and it's a dead bird.

Specifically, is this candle and dead blackbird

a good omen or a bad omen,

and does it have anything to do with the haunting?

This could be significant of a request to the Morrigan.

The Morrigan is an Irish deity.

She's the goddess of war, death.

You would make an offering to her either for protection

or for something specific, something aggressive.

Now her symbol, her animal, is the crow,

and there was a black bird headless in that box.

The white candle could have been a request to say,

"Hey, I am seeking for your protection,"

and this is a very specific thing done and to bury it.

It doesn't necessarily have anything to do with him.

He just happens to be here

and might be suffering those aftereffects of it.

Lots of questions still remained,

but none more important than this one,

what caused the paranormal activity?

Was it a troublemaking poltergeist?

Was it the spirit of his grandfather?

Put the shower on.

Or was it witchcraft?

Oh,.

It's entirely possible that there could be multiple layers

of activity all for different reasons

and with different intents, and until he figures out

exactly what he's gonna do with his life

and about that situation, that tug-of-war may continue.

Nicolas eventually moved out of the apartment

and into his dad's old house where the activity ceased,

but one thing is for sure.

Nicolas is now a true believer

and is ready to face any ghost that comes his way.

Oh,.

Coming up, a walk in the woods turns terrifying.

All right. Let's go. Let's go. Let's go.

Let's go. Let's go. Let's go!

For many people, a hike in the woods

is a relaxing experience that brings them closer to nature,

but for others, the thought of entering a deep, dark forest

is nothing short of terrifying.

Each rustle of the leaves, each passing shadow

is a reminder that you are not alone.

Case in point, one morning, a father and son set out

on what they think is an innocent walk when instead...

Ray, shh!

...they make an unexpected encounter

with a strange and mysterious creature

that they will never forget.

Are you kidding me?

Go, go, go, go!

Go, go, go, go, go!

Ouachita National Forest

covers almost 1.8 million acres

across the Southern United States,

mostly in western Arkansas,

and it was here on a cold winter's morning in 2014

that Shawn and Bryndyn Sullivan, a father and son,

set out on a hike on one of its many nature trails.

My man, let's do a nature walk.

Bryndyn was just 8 years old.

Not too far into the hike,

Bryndyn finds a patch of ice where he pauses to play.

Hey, isn't that cool, Ray?

But then...

Ray, Ray, shh!

...listen carefully.

It's the sound of heavy breathing, and then...

What is it?

...a menacing, deep growl...

...and if that's not terrifying enough,

watch as Bryndyn's father, Shawn,

catches what appears to be a figure

moving through the trees.

Ray, Ray, Ray, shh!

What is that?

Shh! What is it?

Hey, get over here. Get over here, Ray.

What is that?

Stay behind me.

What is that?

Are you kidding me?

There's definitely something there,

and Shawn is not waiting around to see what it is.

All right. Let's go. Let's go. Let's go.

Let's go. Let's go. Let's go. Go, go, go, go, go, go, go!

Go, go, Ray, go, go, go!

Hi, my name is Bryndyn Sullivan, and this is Shawn Sullivan.

I'm his dad.

It was definitely a scary moment.

We've been down this trail numerous times,

and we were probably about 20 or 30 minutes

into the walk, you know?

And I hear something.

Shh!

What is it?

It was like a growling sound or something,

and I see something, like a shadow

or something in the woods, so I immediately --

I'm like, "All right. Let's get out of here."

Go, Ray, go, go!

I didn't know what it was.

Come on, come on. Faster. Let's go. Let's go.

But their terrifying ordeal is not over.

I can still hear this noise behind us.

It sounds like it's following us.

Shawn is beginning to wonder,

is this creature on the hunt?

What is it? Is it following us?

So I kind of stop and look, and I could still hear

this noise and rustling of stuff.

Then from behind a tree,

watch as the same figure emerges.

Go, go, go, go, go, go, go!

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

It's scary when you're with your 7 or 8-year-old.

You're out in the forest,

and you see something you're not familiar with,

and you hear something.

It's very, very, very scary.

But what exactly was that thing

chasing Shawn and Bryndyn in the woods?

Could it be Bigfoot?

In the first part of this video,

you see something moving off in the distance.

There's definitely something alive back there,

but you just can't tell what it is.

The second part of the video, however,

there does seem to be

a kind of a dark bipedal figure

hiding behind a tree that peeks out around the tree.

Now, that can't be a deer because obviously,

the backend would stick out the other side.

The noise that we're hearing in this clip

is kind of interesting to me,

but what they captured on camera looks very humanoid in nature,

and it's very hard to see

because he's just behind the brush,

but you do capture a glimpse

of what looks like a tall man figure.

And the two together, sound and image,

could possibly make this one of the rarest videos

of Bigfoot ever captured on camera.

This thing could have been 7 foot tall, you know,

7, 7 1/2 foot tall, but this thing was not a bear.

It wasn't an animal that we've ever seen,

and the way that it pursued us and walked

and peered around the tree

and the noises it was making,

it acted like it was intelligent, like it was --

there was a thought process of how it was following us to stop,

and I still don't have an explanation,

but it was Bigfoot-like.

I can tell you that.

But was the creature in pursuit

of the father and son,

or did they just come upon and surprise it?

It's very possible that whatever this was

was watching them for some time

because they were coming into its territory.

They were coming into its home,

so very naturally, you might want to go,

"Hmm. Who are you? What are you doing here?"

I think more and more, probably reflecting the way

we understand natural spaces, we see this idea

that Bigfoot doesn't just want to be left alone,

wants to defend his own space,

wants to get us out of where he wants to be.

Go, go, go, go, go, go, go!

One thing is for sure --

although father and son still enjoy the great outdoors,

they will never forget the terror

they experienced in the woods that day.

Go!

Ah!

Coming up,

three leaked videos of US Navy pilots

encountering UFOs.

In December of 2017 and March of 2018,

"The New York Times"

and the UFO research group called To The Stars

Academy of Arts & Sciences hosted three allegedly

declassified videos of US Navy pilots

encountering unidentified flying objects.

Now for the first time,

the experts of "Paranormal Caught on Camera"

share their thoughts on the most compelling,

incredible UFO footage ever released to the public.

Fix your eyes on the oval-shaped object

in the center of the screen.

In 2015, these US Navy pilots exclaimed in disbelief

as their infrared cameras captured this unidentified

flying object off the coast of Florida.

This object was later classified and given the code name Gimbal.

Somehow, this video proof of a possible UFO encounter

and two others found their way into the mainstream

and were heavily circulated online.

The second, named FLIR1, was spotted in 2004

off the coast of San Diego,

and the third, Go Fast, was spotted somewhere off

the Eastern Seaboard of the United States in 2015.

All three encounters baffled not only the pilots

who experienced the events firsthand,

but experts everywhere.

These clips were actually unclassified last year,

and it kind of shook up the paranormal and UFO world.

The US military is not going to go around saying,

"This is a UFO," unless they mean it.

The fact that you can hear the pilots' voices

and the excitement in their voices as they lock on

to some of these items or simply lay eyes on them,

you can tell it's something that they're not used to seeing,

and they're very excited.

These guys know what things look like when they're flying.

They've encountered all kinds of earthborn crafts.

They know what's up there,

and they're shocked by what they're seeing.

It does not behave like anything they're used to.

That lends a lot of credibility to these clips,

and then when we're looking at the object,

we can also see that it doesn't really behave like the craft

that we're used to.

The one particular video,

the craft is known as a Gimbal by ufologists.

That's simply because of the shape

and the movement it has.

Now, a gimbal is an object that no matter how it sits,

it always sits upright, so it's got a couple pivots

that allows it to always stay in one position,

and that's exactly how this UFO seems to do no matter

how fast it's traveling through the sky.

Is this another government having created a drone

that can fly faster than anything we can imagine,

or is this extraterrestrial,

or is this paranormal or supernatural in origin?

These areas come together anytime something

is really ambiguous for us.

In an apparent effort to combat that ambiguity,

the US Navy set up new guidelines

to report UFO activity in April 2019,

formalizing the process at unprecedented levels.

I think the reason they're doing that right now

is because they want their pilots to identify

what these things are.

You've got to remember, when these sightings first happened

in, like, the, you know, late '40s,

the government, you know, was always saying,

"Do not disclose anything. You have not seen anything."

Even airline pilots in the '70s and '80s,

they were told not to report it

because you would, you know, be a kook,

but now that you have actually Air Force and Navy

seeing these things, it's credible.

I mean, something is happening.

A few months later in September of 2019,

the Navy not only confirmed something had happened,

they admitted the leaked videos were, in fact, theirs.

These videos normally are the kind that are ignored

by the governments or dismissed or just not even addressed,

but finally, the government has said,

"Yes, these videos are legit.

"They were taken by Navy personnel,

and, yeah, we don't know what they are."

They Navy also stated that the footage should have

never been shared with the public in the first place.

I don't want to sound like a conspiracy-theory guy,

but it's just the way the government operates.

It's just the way the military operates.

They're not gonna show you their full hand

because we're playing a game with counterintelligence,

with enemy countries, and if they show it to us,

they've got to show it to everybody,

so we're just not gonna see

everything that they have.

And ultimately, there might be a reason for that.

Honestly, the general public

really can't handle everything we'd like to think we can,

but the average person just needs to go about their day

and not worry about things of cosmic significance,

so it falls upon the government to protect us from ourselves.

Coming up, could these Bosnian pyramids

contain cryptozoological life-forms?

The origin of the ancient Egyptian pyramids

has been shrouded in mystery for centuries.

Some theorize that these engineering marvels

could not have been built without today's advances

and know-how, thus leading many to speculate that aliens

or something otherworldly had a hand in their creation,

and now, there's an equally puzzling

and possibly paranormal link to pyramids

unfolding about 1,000 miles away in Bosnia and Herzegovina

where geologists may have captured proof

of an intelligent life-form

that could predate mankind by millennia.

In 2019, Geologist Richard Hoyle took a photo of work

being done in some newly discovered underground tunnels

in Bosnia and Herzegovina.

When he later examined the photo,

he was astounded to see that what he first thought

were simply dust particles were in fact so much more than that.

My name is Richard Hoyle, and I am the Bosnian Pyramid

of the Sun Foundation's field geologist.

Hoyle is investigating the theory

that three pyramids in Bosnia,

which were widely thought to be naturally occurring,

are actually man-made.

There's three pyramids in particular --

the Bosnian Pyramid of the Sun, Bosnian Pyramid of the Moon,

and the Bosnian Pyramid of the Dragon,

and they form a near-perfect equilateral triangle.

The largest one, the Pyramid of the Sun,

at nearly 800 feet tall,

is almost twice the height of the Great Pyramid of Giza.

Meanwhile, a mere 2.5 kilometers away

lie a series of mysterious tunnels.

These passages appear to be somehow connected

with the Bosnian pyramids,

and at some points in the distant past,

it seems that someone, some people,

some organizations of people, a civilization,

they blocked off those passages, and our work --

all we are doing is actually emptying these passages out,

so we're not creating any new passages.

We're literally just pulling the loose material

away from the tunnel walls.

And it was during this excavation process

that Hoyle believes he captured something truly extraordinary.

We see a phenomena which many people refer to as orbs.

But these orbs aren't of your garden variety.

Hoyle believes they are of the paranormal variety,

as evidenced by this still photo taken within the tunnels,

specifically this highlighted orb.

In still photography, you see that the orb phenomena

has a very complex internal structure.

Sometimes, you get concentric circles.

Sometimes, you may even get to see other geometric shapes,

and that one with the concentric circles inside,

it also has an aura out around its edge as well.

Though fascinated by Richard's capture,

there were those though thought that the orb

might just be a light anomaly and nothing more,

so in efforts to rule that out,

Hoyle and his team did some experimenting.

And actually, we tried to recreate

the phenomena using dust, and dust in the atmosphere

does produce a similar phenomena.

However, in still photography,

you see that the internal structure of the dust

produces an amorphous shape whereas the orb phenomena

has a very complex internal structure,

and no dust particle that we take photographs of produced

that sort of glowing ring around its edge,

so they're similar but distinctly different.

There is a sort of a strange anomalous feature to them

in that there's sort of like a swirl of light

going on inside them.

It seems to almost have an energy source within it.

They may be cryptozoological in nature.

It may be a form of life that we're just not familiar with.

It may be interdimensional.

These beings may be able to show themselves

in our three-dimensional realm, but also, they might transcend

into higher dimensions of reality,

and we're just capturing a glimpse

of what their full effect may be in our domain.

One of the things that I find most interesting about this case

is that this man is a man of science.

He's a geologist, so he's used to doing things a certain way,

so his excavation of this site seems to have opened up

within him an openness to possibility.

We also have higher concentrations of oxygen down

in the air outside the tunnels,

and that's even more of a mysterious question.

How is that possible?

Because usually underground in passages,

you'll need artificial ventilation

whereas in these tunnels,

we're actually finding they self-ventilate themselves.

There's a higher-quality air inside the tunnels than outside,

so maybe these orbs have something to do

with the highly charged atmosphere within the passages.

Anyone that's ever visited places

like Stonehenge or the pyramids at Giza

can tell you that they have a certain energy about them.

It's almost as if they emit an energy field themselves,

and this has been the case for hundreds

if not thousands of years.

There's records of pilgrimages of people,

you know, traveling thousands of miles

just to feel the energy emitted by some of these places.

Perhaps that special energy

and the mysterious origins

of these incredible structures give us a clue as to where

or when these orbs Hoyle discovered came from.

McNEILL: This is a thing that we see in other places.

The idea of the Lost City of Atlantis

is not just just that a city disappeared under the waves.

It's that a surprisingly informed,

scientifically skilled,

knowledgeable society disappeared under the waves

and set humankind back

so that we understand as ancient human history

where we are beginning with things like cave paintings

and the shaping of stone tools and the discovery of ore

that we can begin to shape into weapons and armor and tools,

that is a reset button from this earlier

incredibly capable,

potentially magical age of humanity.

So we're completely changing our understanding of human history,

and that's why there's such controversy

regarding this project because it's contradicting

everything we've taken as a given so far.

What should you do in the event

you witness something paranormal?

Here are some tips to get it all on camera --

Keep a safe distance from the monsters.

Go, go, go, go, go, go!

Check all your footage for something strange.

Trust your instincts that what you're seeing really

is otherworldly.

Look at that thing!

And if you do catch something,

e-mail us at submitparanormal@gmail.com

or connect with us on social media.

Your footage could be seen right here

on "Paranormal Caught on Camera."
