Next on "Paranormal Caught on Camera"...

a hunter in Canada stumbles across a bloody carcass,

and standing next to it is Bigfoot.

As I watched this video, I found myself so caught up

in the moment that I held my breath.

A man spots a terrifying black shadow

crossing the road in Maine.

The hair on the back of my neck stood up

because I didn't know what that was.

The spirit of a lost little girl visits her family

from beyond.

This is a childlike spirit.

It's making noise and happy noise and playing with games.

A heated argument

unleashes a powerful paranormal force in Malaysia.

This is really some of the best paranormal footage

I've ever seen.

And even more paranormal footage

you have to see...

Oh, my God! Look!

...to believe.

There are those who believe that our planet

is not only home to every living thing,

but also the spirit of everything that's ever lived.

Add to that the belief that Earth is frequently visited

by interdimensional travelers of every shape and size,

and it quickly becomes clear that at any given moment

you could come across a paranormal entity

without even knowing it, whether in your living room,

outside in a park,

or driving down a lonely stretch of road...

...which is what might have happened to one man in Maine

when his dash cam caught this terrifying apparition.

During a late-night drive.

July 2020 in Falmouth, Maine.

It's 11:00 p.m.,

and Chet Cook is driving on an isolated road.

He comes to an almost blind curve when...

...a deer.

It escapes into the woods, and Chet keeps driving.

The next morning,

Chet reviews the footage,

and just before he gets to the part where he spots the deer,

He sees something peculiar.

Did you catch it?

Watch again in slow motion

as a massive shadow-like creature crosses the street

directly in front of Chet's path at an incredible speed.

Chet was freaked because he hadn't noticed it

while he was driving.

My name is Chet Cook, and I filmed the video.

When I found the footage, and I went back over it

and over again, frame by frame,

trying to figure out what it is I saw,

the hair on the back of my neck stood up

because I didn't know what that was.

Can you imagine driving down a darkened road

and having something like this dart out in front of you?

And as if that's not crazy enough,

imagine that happening and you missed it

and you wouldn't have caught it if it weren't for your dash cam.

I don't know what this thing is,

but it's big, it's dark, and it's kind of freaky.

It doesn't appear to be solid. It seems shadowy, blurry.

Yes, it's moving pretty fast, and it is dark out,

but the headlights illuminate the road

and most of the details around it.

So the fact that it's not gaining any more detail

means that it's something else.

The light almost seems to be absorbed by it.

It's not reflecting back,

and it doesn't seem to be passing through it.

It seems like a black hole

where the headlights just don't penetrate.

At first I thought it was an animal,

but then you can actually see the white lines through it.

So it's like a shadow

of something darting across the road.

And with the velocity that this car was going at,

it's got to be running across the street at 60 miles an hour.

It's so fleeting, so quick, and so massive,

it doesn't come off as anything terrestrially

to what we know of on planet Earth.

If it was a physical cat -- leopard, panther, whatever --

you would have seen it show in the headlights.

You didn't see that.

You saw just a shadow or just a blur,

just a figment of something, so I don't know what it was.

And while we may never know exactly what it was,

there are certain aspects of the capture that give us clues.

If I were to make my best guess

of what we're seeing here in this video,

I would have to say that this gentleman

caught some kind of residual haunting

or a place memory haunting

of something that has crossed that road probably 100 times.

Now, imagine this creature maybe ran across the road

and didn't make it.

It was hit, struck by a car, passed away.

Now we're looking at residual energy of this creature

just in a loop, constantly crossing this road.

Or could it be something much more terrifying?

When I think of a shadow animal,

the first major traditional thing

that comes to mind is a hellhound.

There are dogs associated with hell

and whether that's the three-headed dog gatekeeper

of ancient Greek Hades

or whether that is a contemporary

sort of red-eyed, evil black dog,

the idea of a hellhound has been around for quite some time.

A creature of myth, a creature of legend

and more recently of pop culture in supernatural-themed shows,

the hellhound is a messenger, a servant of those dark realms

sent to do a task, to do the bidding of its master,

either to torment or collect someone on this side.

Terrifying.

As for Chet, his mind is open.

Science can't describe everything currently.

Maybe someday.

But I believe that there is other things out there

that we just don't know.

Coming up, a powerful spirit

displays incredible force in Malaysia.

A heated argument between two people can be exhausting.

The intensity, the stress, the overwhelming frustration

can all lead to frazzled emotions

and frayed relationships.

And in the world of the paranormal,

it can go even further...

dangerously so...

...because in extreme scenarios,

some believe those heightened emotions

can also lead to terrifying paranormal phenomena...

...which is what might have been happening in Malaysia

when an emotional exchange between two people

started a chain reaction of events

that threatened their very safety.

August 2010 in Puchong, Malaysia.

It's past midnight,

and a security camera captures a man and a woman

walking the halls of a local driving school after hours.

The pair ends up in a large room

that has just finished hosting a party.

The two get into an intense discussion,

and the man is rebuffed.

Things start to escalate.

And the man prevents the woman from leaving the room.

A minute later, after another argument, the man leaves.

He walks down the hall and enters another room

to make a phone call.

And here's where it starts to get really weird.

Watch as the door to the room the man is in moves slightly.

Seconds later, three computer screens turn on

by themselves directly in front of him.

Freaked out, he leaves immediately.

It's the last time the man is seen for the night.

But whatever is in the room he just left isn't quite done yet.

Watch closely as the chair moves and the door slams shut.

Meanwhile, back in the other room,

the woman is texting on her phone when...

...a chair in the back moves by itself.

But that is just the beginning.

Another chair moves aggressively toward her.

She's now freaking out.

She tries to escape.

But watch again

as several pieces of furniture block her way,

which seems to literally scare her unconscious.

What on earth did we just watch?

This is really some of the best paranormal footage

I've ever seen.

I was actually really freaked out by this video.

There's something about it that just really feels authentic.

McNEILL: I thought it was enough when the computers turned on and off,

and then all of a sudden all the furniture in the room

with that woman is flying against the door.

I was super creeped out watching that.

The terrifying question --

could there really be intelligent spirits

with this much power...

and this much rage?

Sometimes entities are thought of

to be intelligent spirits,

as if they have a purpose in what they're doing,

and this certainly seems to be one of those cases.

That furniture could have moved in any direction,

but it all piled up right in front of the door

as if it were sending some kind of a message.

It seems pretty clear what that message is --

"You're trapped."

Or could this aggressive energy

have anything to do with the emotional exchange

between the young man and woman?

There are theories that poltergeist activity

is psychokinetic activity,

is sort of the chaotic energy of young people,

young men, young women, you know,

sort of the chaotic emotions and physiology and psychology

that's going on during adolescent years.

The fear response is there, mixed in with rejection,

mixed in with anger -- a perfect little cauldron

to feed that negative energy to amplify itself

into this massive poltergeist outburst we see.

And not only does she flip,

She just reacts so explosively.

She falls over onto the other table,

That fear is so amplified by her, you know?

This is out-of-control manipulation.

We may never know the real reason it happened.

But we do know it's terrifying.

These are the types of videos that really freaked me out

because she is definitely being physically harmed here.

She's being tossed around,

and for something to be that powerful

and to want to hurt you, that's really scary.

Coming up, a Canadian elk hunter

finds himself just a few feet away from Bigfoot.

Bigfoot, perhaps the most legendary cryptid of them all.

But why is it that after so many sightings and reports,

we have so few captures of actual physical proof?

Some believe it's because Bigfoot doesn't really exist.

Others think it's because it's always several steps

ahead of us.

And there are even those who believe it travels

through dimensions to escape detection.

But there's another theory

that Bigfoot is just really, really good

at hiding in plain sight.

A man hunting for elk may have captured proof of this

when he stumbled upon this terrifying fur-covered creature

standing stone still above the carcass of a recent kill.

Winter 2019

near Banff National Park in Alberta, Canada.

Sunny Vader is elk hunting

along the North Saskatchewan River Valley.

When he sees what appears to be an animal carcass

hanging in a nearby tree.

He then pans right and sees this...

...a giant, dark, hairy, mass standing stone still by a tree.

Sunny points the camera at what he believes

to be the head of the creature and lets it run.

Watch as it moves ever so slightly back and forth

as if it is asleep

or being held incredibly still to avoid being seen.

Sunny is amazed and zooms out for a more thorough look.

It's impossibly tall and hulking.

Freaked out, he backs off and goes down a nearby path,

where he eventually sees

what looks like a trail of blood.

He follows it to another carcass --

this time of a buck.

And then to the right again

is another giant, dark, hairy creature

seemingly crouched down.

You can see the head here.

In Sunny's mind, one question --

"Did I really just come across two separate Bigfoots?"

Sunny is stunned and at a loss for words.

Well, almost.

As I watched this video,

I found myself so caught up in the moment

that I held my breath.

I didn't want to make a noise because I didn't want to disturb

what we were about to see.

What we see in this clip is something humanoid

standing upright and leaning against the tree.

The fur on this doesn't look like a bear,

yet It definitely seems to be the hair

of some kind of a beast.

LeBLANC: You see fur, you see hair,

and he starts to pan up and just remains really steady,

and I'm impressed that he was able to pull this off.

You can see the outline of a head,

and you can see it moving ever so slightly.

Whatever this is, it's camouflaged really well

in this particular environment.

The dense evergreen woods, the falling snow,

the shagginess of the hair, the roughness of the bark.

All of this was very successfully obscuring

any level of detail that we might find,

other than to be able to say there is a big hairy creature

holding very still and trying not to be seen

right there up against that tree.

In the second video, it seems like

whatever this Bigfoot entity is,

it's crouching down and covering something

or protecting something.

It seems like the back of the head we're looking at

because it appears to be fixated on that recently killed deer

that's on the ground before it,

which is probably to the advantage

of the guy shooting this video.

He seems like he's closer

than I would want to be in that instance.

But was Sunny really ever in any danger?

After all, Bigfoot is known

to be a very peaceful creature, right?

Typically, when you hear the phrase "Bigfoot"

or "Sasquatch," you think the gentle forest giant,

but there are legends, and there have been a few reports

of these things being dangerous.

Native Americans talked about how they would come

from the hills and abduct their children

and take them back and eat them in.

In the 1800s, miners and farmers have experienced

these creatures throwing rocks and logs onto their cabins.

At the end of the day,

we don't really know all these things about cryptids.

We don't really know their true nature.

What if they are just like any other beast

in the woods or forest?

What if they need to consume other animals to survive?

That very much puts this hunter on the menu.

Okay, that's terrifying.

So then if they really are trying to hide from us,

maybe we should heed their request.

A little tip for people that are wandering through the forest --

if you come upon a deer hanging from a tree

and a big hairy creature standing next to it,

don't film it.

Just get out of there.

It's not a safe situation, no matter what the creature is.

If you find blood in the forest,

go in the opposite direction of the blood.

Best case scenario, it's a Bigfoot -- best case.

Coming up, a graveyard shadow figure

stalks a paranormal investigator in California.

Oh, my God!

Many people believe that graveyards are places of peace.

After all, they serve as the final resting point

for the earthly bodies of those we have lost.

But it's important to remember one thing

when you're visiting a graveyard...

you're surrounded by hundreds of dead bodies.

And though the majority of the spirits

once attached to those bodies

may have moved on to another place,

chances are there are some who stuck around.

One paranormal investigator found this out the hard way

when he visited a graveyard in the early morning hours...

...and was tormented...

Oh, my God!

...by ghosts.

March 2020 in San Diego, California.

It's 3:00 a.m.,

and Eric Trujillo is investigating a graveyard

that he has been told is haunted.

I'm here to communicate with any spirits

that are lurking to this day,

possibly share their story, and go from there.

My name is Eric Trujillo,

and I was the one that filmed this video.

I decided to go to the cemetery and I'm like, "Okay,

well, let me go check it out," but like,

if I'm gonna check it out, it's gonna be a 3:00 a.m.,

which is considered the witching hour,

which is considered the most activity,

especially in cemeteries.

It's known for that worldwide.

Keep in mind, guys, I'm here by myself.

Every graveyard that I go to,

I've always experienced the same things --

the whispers, I feel like something's watching me,

the temperature dropping.

When you're alone, no one's around,

that's when, like, things get active.

Oh, my God! I thought I heard something.

Throughout the years,

there have been many philosophical debates

and weird ideas about why cemeteries could be haunted.

But the reality of it is that spirit is where people are.

They're attracted to us just as our attention notices them.

So if that's in a graveyard, that's where they'll be.

If it's at grandma's house, that's where they'll be.

And though Eric doesn't realize it at the time,

the spirits are indeed very close by.

Guys, please be my eyes and ears.

If you guys see anything crazy, please let me know.

Did you see it?

Watch again as a shadow figure seems to stand

behind a nearby grave,

then slip behind a tree.

Eric only sees the figure later

when reviewing the footage at home.

When I was editing that clip, I was zooming in,

and I was kind of playing with the coloration, like saturation.

I was like, "Okay, what is that?"

There was like a cloth black figure

just standing still, like stiff.

And it kind of seemed like it was, I guess --

people call it an apparition.

People call it like a dark shadow entity

that it's known to be seen in cemeteries.

McNEILL: So there's a bunch of different theories

about what shadow people are.

Are they demonic presences?

Does that explain that sort of void-like darkness?

Is it something from another dimension

or another plane of existence,

something that's maybe carving out a space in our dimension

rather than actually taking up a space in our dimension?

It's hard to say, but we know that they involve

some sort of coagulation of energy.

Because Eric didn't see the shadow figure

while he was filming,

He's still calm enough

to start the next phase of his investigation.

This is a place where I want to do my session

'cause I feel like I'll get a good amount of activity here.

He takes out his spirit box

to see if any entities would like to talk.

Is there anyone here that wishes to communicate with me?

And this time he is extremely aware of their presence.

Oh, my God!

Was that there?

A nearby chair that had been folded

and placed against the wall

seems to have been somehow thrown

at almost the exact moment

that Eric asks for a sign of communication.

My heart is racing, guys,

I'm like, "Wait, what? Like, that's impossible."

Like my reaction was like I got scared,

I thought something was approaching me.

Eric is now thoroughly freaked out.

Dude, no, no, no. This ain't happening right now.

At a certain point, this investigator begins to feel

a little bit anxious, maybe even a little bit scared.

And we should point out that a lot of paranormal investigators

believe that these kind of feelings can feed a haunting

or feed an entity.

It's almost like you're giving it energy or power.

I was just all over the place.

I was just confused, had headaches,

and more importantly, I just wanted to run.

And that's exactly what he does.

What?

Whoo!

We got to go. We got to go.

We got to go. What the?

But two months later,

his curiosity gets the better of him,

and he returns to the cemetery to give it another go.

I was walking around the cemetery,

and I happened to come across a mausoleum.

And it doesn't take long

for the fear to overwhelm him again.

I'm panicking. This is too much for me.

I will be back.

I just -- I just -- it's too much.

It's too much for me right now.

Watch closely.

Watch again, zoomed in,

as another shadow figure, or maybe the same one as before,

pops up behind a wall.

And this time Eric sees it clearly and takes off.

I couldn't believe my eyes.

I've never experienced like that in my life.

I've never seen anything like that.

Spirits can show themselves in many different forms.

Sometimes they're a full apparition

where they look like a living person,

sometimes they're just a faint mist,

and other times, they're described

as some type of shadow.

So if there was some sort of shadow figure here

in the cemetery,

it could very well be the spirit of anybody.

No word yet as to whether Eric plans

to go to the cemetery again.

But if he does, he's sure to have a welcome party.

...and like.

Oh, my God!

Coming up, the spirit of a lost child

returns to play with her toys.

Twins are thought to have an exceptionally special bond --

so special, in fact, that when one twin dies,

some believe that its spirit serves as a guardian angel

for the twin who remains --

whether that death occurs later in life

or even in some cases before they even leave the womb.

That's what may have happened to one family in England,

who, despite losing one of their twins,

seems to have caught her repeatedly playing

with one of the toys in their home.

March 2020 in Stoke-on-Trent, U.K.

Alex Thorley lives in a home with his fiancée, Jodie,

a one-year-old stepson, Logan,

and his infant biological son, Jax.

The family is still recovering from something that took place

in January involving Jax's birth.

My name's Alex, and I filmed the video.

And ever since they brought the surviving twin, Jax, home,

strange stuff has been happening around the house --

all centered around one particular object.

Despite repeated attempts,

Alex never managed to capture the activity on camera

until one eventful night

when Jax was out of the house with his grandparents.

Alex set up a camera in the room

and set it to record,

hoping to capture the phantom crying.

This is the footage Alex captured.

Watch closely.

The toy is operating frantically

for no apparent reason,

almost as if a child is playing with it.

♪ A, B, C, D...♪

Then Alex asked a question and got a response

that made him truly believe that this might actually be

the spirit of his lost daughter, Angel.

Watch the yellow light on the toy.

♪ Peppa Pig♪

Even more convincing is the fact that the toy

was performing functions that Alex later demonstrated

were seemingly not possible.

Level one.

Flick it back off.

And these -- these buttons don't even work,

but you could see on the video she had them all lighting up.

When do you have someone that passes,

especially something tragic like this with a child,

there is definitely, I think,

an energy that sticks around with the family.

Those emotions, that energy --

I think it it does continue to bring

or carry that spirit of that person has passed

until, I think, the family has kind of come to grips with that.

And they often reveal themselves

through the manipulation of electronics.

This is a childlike activity. This is a childlike spirit.

It's making noise and happy noise

and playing with games, and it's playing with toys

that are not easily made to malfunction.

That's what spirits try to do when they're present.

They want to get your attention.

They're trying to send some sort of message.

And I think the message here is that their daughter is there,

and she is there to comfort them for as long as they need.

And there might be a good reason for that --

the twin connection.

The fact that you have a twin that survived --

that is a spiritual bond that is really special.

Whatever is happening here, one thing's for sure --

the love within a family, living and deceased, is powerful.

McNEILL: Prior deceased family members are commonly understood

to serve a protective role, a role as a guide, maybe,

someone watching over the living people

that they were close to in life.

How much closer do you get than both a twin

and a newly born child?

And to think that that spirit is now here,

making sure this family's okay,

making sure that they get through this period of grief --

I think that's a really moving understanding of this.

Coming up, a mysterious craft over Colorado.

Oh, my God! Look!

We exist within a galaxy that is vastly unknown.

Behind each planet, every star --

endless possibilities.

The more we discover, the likelihood

that we're the only intelligent life forms in the universe

seems implausible,

and if there are, in fact,

extraterrestrial beings out there,

who's to say they don't share our same desire for exploration?

And what better place to explore than Earth?

One woman in Colorado may have recently captured evidence

of one of those explorations in broad daylight.

Oh, my God! Look!

That is not an airplane.

July 2020 in Telluride, Colorado.

Stephanie Davies is on vacation with her fiancé's family.

The group is enjoying a scenic outdoor lunch at a restaurant

when her future sister-in-law spots something strange.

Without hesitation,

Stephanie gets her phone and starts recording.

At first, she sees nothing.

But then...

...a long, white, oddly shaped object appears,

cruising through the sky, completely unencumbered.

All of them are baffled.

Hi, my name is Stephanie Davies, and I filmed this video.

To me it looks like the shape of, like, a pill,

like an oval.

Your brain is familiar with what an airplane looks like,

what a jet looks like,

but this thing is not a jet, it's not a blimp,

so when you see things like this in the sky,

you can only perceive it as a UFO

'cause you like, "What is it?"

When you think of UFOs, there's a few standard forms

that we often think of and see.

There's the black cigar shape. There's the triangle.

There's often, you know, the flying saucer.

But we do see these sort of four-sided geometric shapes

sometimes, too.

There's a small regional airport

about 10 miles away,

but this is clearly no airplane, both in appearance and sound.

And there was no noise. There was no noise.

I don't know of any kind of plane

that doesn't make any noise.

Even if this was some sort of manless drone of some sort,

you should still be able to hear it.

Those things have several motors on them.

They're loud. They make a whirring sound.

But this was completely silent, so I don't know.

This is crazy.

And it's not the first time

an object just like this has made an appearance.

In 2004, a United States Navy F/A-18 Super Hornet

filmed this strange, unidentified pill-shaped craft

just off the coast of San Diego.

This footage was just recently declassified.

And another almost identical UFO was spotted in Ohio recently,

baffling witnesses there, too.

It's like a cigar shape

It's not making any noise.

I don't see wings on it.

So could this be from another world?

And if it is, what is it doing here?

If this is extraterrestrial in nature,

it does not mind being seen.

Is that because, on one hand,

it views humans as insignificant, like ants?

Or perhaps it's part of a desensitization process,

so we become so accustomed to seeing things in the sky

without freaking out.

Whatever this thing is

and whatever its purpose here on Earth,

Stephanie is just grateful

to have captured this once-in-a-lifetime sighting

on camera.

I mean, ultimately, I don't know what it was,

but I don't think that we're the only people in the universe

by any means.

I mean, to see something fly in the sky like that,

that looked round on every edge --

I think it's from another planet, which is super cool.

Oh, my God! Look!

That is not an airplane.

What should you do in the event

you witness something paranormal?

Here are some tips to get it all on camera.

Review all your footage carefully.

Be as quiet as you possibly can.

Believe that what you're seeing really is paranormal

Holy, babe. I've got it on video.

And if you do get something,
