Next on Paranormal Caught on Camera...

A man in Colorado...

Wait! Wait! Oh, my God! Oh, my God!

...believes he's the victim of a Voodoo curse.

It's not something that you get used to.

It's deeply troubling.

A birthday party in Brazil

is interrupted

by a ghost.

And it looked like an apparition of a person passing through that space.

Clear as day.

A farmhouse in Wisconsin

with spirits abound.

Hello? Anybody at home?

The clock falls straight towards me.

That scared the crap outta me.

And what creature is lurking inside this cupboard?

This is something straight out of a horror movie.

And even more paranormal footage you have to see...

Oh, my God!

...to believe.

Did you know the ancient religion of Voodoo

is still practiced in Louisiana,

where its followers

believe that connections with spirits

can be achieved through rituals,

which sometimes involve possession.

But is there such a thing

as a Voodoo curse?

According to a man in Colorado,

there is.

Because his life got turned upside down

after visiting a Voodoo shop

in New Orleans.

No way! No way! Oh, my God. Oh, my God!

And it's been haunting him

ever since.

Aurora, Colorado.

A man that goes by the name JB

took a trip to New Orleans in 2014.

It was there he entered a Voodoo shop,

and was about to have a reading done,

when things took a turn

for the truly bizarre.

My name's JB and these are my videos.

The moment I walked in there,

and saw the lady was doin' it,

it was just like a weird uncomfortable feeling,

and it was shared mutually.

And I kindly excused myself.

And as I started walking out,

um, it was like she came up to say something and touched my back.

And she didn't say anything.

She just turned around and walked away.

So, I left and pretty much immediately following that,

that's when all hell broke loose.

That chilling meeting set off a series of events

that's led JB to believe he's been cursed.

Everything started fallin' apart

like legal troubles, divorce, custody battles.

And then to add on top of that,

it was like I was seeing things.

I was hearing things that I never did before.

And you know, I just... I brushed it off.

But after years of too many unexplained incidents,

he can no longer just brush it off.

So, he decides to document it on camera.

Case in point.

One night, JB hears the shower turn on his bathroom.

Oh, what the?

So, he goes to check it out.

Now, watch,

as the shower curtain...

...begins to pull back.

And the door...

...closes.

It scared the hell out of me.

And set the tone for what was to come really.

And what's to come is so much worse.

One night,

his dog seems to be bothered by something in the basement.

What's the matter, buddy?

When JB goes downstairs to investigate,

he hears giggling,

and comes face to face with something terrifying.

Oh...

What the?

Watch again

as a shadow figure stands by the far wall.

I really don't know how to explain that.

Um, it's one thing to hear something.

Um, it's incredibly troubling at that point.

There is a longstanding tradition in folklore

of ghosts that are trying to lure people to bad ends

by mimicking the sound of crying, or of children's' laughter

I don't.

Anything that gets someone

to go somewhere where they are one, vulnerable,

and two, where they wouldn't normally go.

That's not a good sign,

when something is trying to get you to go to those spaces.

And unfortunately for JB,

that shadow figure...

Whoa! Whoa! Whoa!

...appears more than once.

I give the guy credit for sticking it out as long as he did,

because, uh, this entity seems to be toying with him.

But perhaps the most disturbing event

takes place one night when JB is watching TV,

and here's what sounds like silverware,

- falling on the floor in the kitchen.

I had heard a noise.

It's not uncommon to see things out of place.

So, I picked 'em up, threw them in the sink.

Damn it. That's a bit odd.

I walked back to the couch thinking, "All right, yeah, whatever,"

and then when I sat down,

oh, hell, no.

Did you catch that?

Watch

as a dark figure

moves behind JB

in the reflection on the TV.

It was right behind me,

and it wasn't there before.

And I jumped over the couch

to try to, like, see if somebody was screwing with me

and there was genuinely no one there.

This is something straight out of a horror movie.

Just in watching this clip, I felt something's gotta be done.

But what and does this haunting have anything to do

with his trip to New Orleans?

Voodoo is not to be messed with.

This is definitely a system of religious practice and belief

that you wanna take seriously.

This is something that I think needs some professional help,

whether it's employing a priest to come and bless the home,

or to bring other people to help clear this.

I think this is something that he should not be trying to tackle on his own.

JB agrees.

There is no way in hell I am ever gonna sit down

and try to communicate with this thing.

Uh, the last thing on my mind is trying to talk to it

in fear of if it answered,

I'd probably die of a heart attack, to be honest with you.

In the meantime, JB is finding ways to deal with it.

But realizes it's not something he'll ever

be comfortable with.

It can be a surprise, what you can get used to in life.

But when you're seeing things that you see in movies,

makes me regret going down this road.

Coming up, a mysterious ghost appears through a window.

If you're loved ones who have passed away

were able to come back and visit in spectral form,

would you welcome it?

Would seeing them one more time bring you comfort?

Or totally creep you out?

Especially if they pop in when you aren't ready for it.

That's what happened to a man in Brazil,

who captured something so surreal,

you may think twice about wanting an unexpected visitor

from beyond.

February, 2011.

Sao Paulo, Brazil.

Beto Uchoa is testing out his new camera at his cousin's house next door

as they celebrate her birthday.

Now watch as Beto pans to the kitchen

to film another party goer.

DId you see that? Watch again.

As an eerie, glowing figure,

glides slowly past the window in the background.

My name is Beto Uchoa and this is my video.

To give a better perspective,

Beto films his house from the outside during the day.

To show exactly where the apparition appeared

on the balcony above.

I think we can all relate to having an uninvited guest at a birthday party.

But this? This is next level.

I was blown away by this capture.

The fact that he runs outside and we see that there's no one around

and this being just disappears.

You're really left with only one answer to what this could be

and to me it's a ghost.

I wrote one word in my notes when watching this clip.

And that word is "real".

This is real.

This was just so unintentional,

so solid.

I mean even if that figure that walks past the kitchen,

were a person at that party, they would have seen him.

The minute they came around that corner.

It was quick but it was clear

and it looked like an apparition of a person

passing through that space, clear as day.

I love clips like this,

because they're not active investigation.

This is just a tiny slice of life that happened

to infringe upon paranormal realms and we get to see it.

This video isn't about capturing evidence,

it's about, "Okay, we're having a party, we're having a good time.

Who the hell is that?"

That's a question Beto has been trying to answer

ever since.

And in fact, over the years,

Beto and his family have sensed his grandfather's presence.

It is intriguing Beto's grandfather did live at this house.

That would suggest that he had a deep, personal connection to the location.

So it would make sense to me that

perhaps he wants to stick around in some form.

Maybe even check in on his grandson.

For me it seems more like a place memory or a residual type of haunting.

His grandfather moved about that house for who knows how many years.

Uh, that energy could be imprinted at that location.

And maybe the energy of the birthday party

triggered that energy to be released

and they perceived his grandfather.

Regardless of who it was,

Even though it's been a decade since he captured that

ghostly figure on that balcony.

Beto is still shaken up by it.

Coming up.

What spirit haunts this abandoned farm house

in Milwaukee?

Anybody at home?

For ghost hunters,

investigating hauntings means entering into a nether world

of disembodied voices...

...and dark entities.

Some spirits are simply waiting to be acknowledged.

While others wish to torment.

But whether their intentions are good or evil,

there is always the terrifying possibility

that one may follow you home.

Which is what might have happened to one man in Milwaukee

who failed to heed the warning signs.

Hello?

Anybody at home?

Anybody--

Milwaukee, Wisconsin.

When Phil Koch and his wife first moved in to the townhouse 32 years ago,

they knew it would be the ideal place to raise a family.

But their new home was right next to a dilapidated farmhouse

built in the 1800's.

Which gave them the creeps.

My name is Phil and these are my videos.

There was somebody living there

but it's been abandoned for a good 15 plus years.

Since it was abandoned for a long period of time,

I went up a few times here and there just to check and make sure

nobody was up there who shouldn't have been.

He finds nothing.

But he's still suspicious.

So one night in 2011,

he brings a camera to the barn and leaves it running

to see if he can catch anyone in the act.

I'm gonna let this run for about an hour.

And, uh,

see if anything happens.

I was concerned that kids were getting in there at night.

It was basically more of a defensive measure I was taking.

About an hour later,

Phil returns to the barn to retrieve his camera.

Coming to get you.

When I came back home, I walked back down the driveway,

I gave the video camera to my daughter and said,

"Here watch this, see if anything happens on this tape."

Now she was like 13, she was like, Oh, okay!"

And she comes running down the stairs yelling,

"Mom! Dad! Come look! Quick!"

So Phil watches the footage

and at around the 35 minute mark

sees this.

We looked at it and I said,

"Well." I said, "Okay."

"That could have just shifted. Maybe an animal did it."

But moments later...

Watch again.

As the chair seems to be pulled down forcefully

by something below it.

My wife and I were just like...

And it left me-- it left me kind of scared.

'Cause I couldn't...

you know, couldn't explain it.

At first I thought maybe it was just settling

as it is on top of these other objects.

But it looks like it's pretty stable,

so when it wiggles, not once but twice.

That's quite odd.

This isn't something where like, a gust of wind

or a you know, gentle tremor's gonna knock it down from where it was.

It took some force to get that thing knocked down.

Freaked out,

but too curious to let it go,

Phil and his daughter returned the next morning.

Only to make another frightening discovery.

- Wasn't it tipped over? - Yeah.

And now it's back up.

The chair was back in an upright position which

would have seemed impossible.

If one or two things move,

that alone is to me is not enough to deem a haunting.

What makes it possibly paranormal

is when something unexplainable happens on top of that.

So this rocking chair moves position

and when they go check on it, it is right back to where it was.

So that is something that is a lot harder to explain

than just gravity.

Now, Phil is very eager to figure out what is going on.

So he eventually goes back to the farmhouse,

this time alone.

I should know better than to come back here.

I took the video camera and I put it through the open window, through the curtains.

Anybody in here?

Hello?

Anybody at home?

Anybody--

The clock falls right towards me.

Got very aggressive.

It could have fallen any which way.

But it fell right towards the direction that I was,

you know standing on the other side of the door.

I think it was actually telling me to leave.

Anybody--

Watching the clock fall in this video is really eerie.

Because you can almost see that it starts to move

before he even notices it falling.

Anybody--

It didn't just get knocked and fall.

it seemed like it was trying to jockey for position

to get close to him before gravity took over

and that was unusual.

The clock incident thoroughly freaks Phil out

and he wants nothing to do with whatever is in the house.

But unfortunately for him,

whatever's in the house

doesn't seem to be done with Phil just yet.

Phil believes it follows him home

and torments him.

Every night at two, three in the morning.

we would hear footsteps right outside the door.

Back and forth, someone's pacing outside our door.

And right when I heard it walking, I'd open up the door,

and there'd be nothing there.

And it gets even worse.

Phil believes it physically attacks him.

But the second time in the shower when I got scratched in the side

and literally I watched it welt up in front of me.

Having any sort of paranormal activity while you are showering

means there's no rules.

It will, attack you whenever it feels like.

My wife got mad, and she says, "You're done."

And I said, "Okay."

Happy wife, happy life and no more ghosts.

Luckily for Phil, once he stops investigating

the farmhouse for good,

the mysterious scratches, stop appearing.

And even though, he was apparently

able to get rid of whatever followed him home,

Phil is still haunted, by the memories.

I always try to believe through evidence

that paranormal is actually real.

And over the period of, not too many years

I found that it was real and I kinda wish I didn't go through all that.

Anybody?

Coming up...

An investigator in Russia...

Gets locked inside

with a ghost.

An abandoned house.

Witchcraft.

Death by hanging.

Just one of these

is enough to make a location ripe for a haunting.

But all three?

Well, that's essentially, a guarantee.

Just ask a man in Russia,

who wound up in this exact scenario.

And it left him running

for his life.

Summer 2020, Pegrema, Russia.

Paranormal investigator, Tim Morozov

has just arrived at an abandoned village

where some of the buildings, date back to the 18th century.

He was contacted by two people

who heard strange noises coming from one of the houses

and saw a dark shadow figure in the fog.

Legend has it, that a woman who practiced witchcraft

used to live in the house,

until she lost her life to suicide by hanging herself.

Tim's here to spend the night and gather some evidence.

He sets up cameras around the house along with laser grids

to map the area, and infrared flashlights.

Then, gets to work.

He's not picking up much activity,

So he goes to bed, and keeps the cameras rolling

hoping to catch something while he's asleep.

Sure enough, just a few minutes later,

his polaroid camera just went off by itself.

Or did it?

He's in the house all by himself It's abandoned

but someone had to push that button.

And it's not an easy button to push, so whatever did it

clearly wanted him to know, "I'm here."

And whatever is here, is just getting started.

A door handle in the next room

is moving on its own.

But it gets even creepier.

Watch, as the same door

when seen from the camera that captures the laser grid

shows a silhouette, reaching out for the handle, as it moves.

This door handle footage is riveting

because we are seeing the handle physically being rattled.

And then in another shot, what appears to be

a Spectro form or shadow that is hunched over

and looks like they are actually interacting with that handle.

Taken together,

this is pretty incredible.

Tim is freaked out.

Because this house has suddenly come to life.

Watch what happens as he walks back into the bedroom.

The door behind him, has slammed shut

locking him in.

Panicked, he does the only thing he can

and jumps out the window.

But despite being terrified by the experience,

Tim's curiosity overpowers his fear

and he goes back a week later

and tries to pick up where he left off.

A sound from the next room.

As he walks over to check it out,

look closely at the shadows on the wall.

The one that remains, does not belong to Tim.

This investigator seems to think that he's there to

surveil whatever spirit might be inhabiting this place

but to me it seems like, he's the one under surveillance.

Tim doesn't see the shadow at the time

but he does see this.

A noose by the bed.

And...

...what seems like a figure behind the curtain.

Which turns out to be

no one.

Then, a few minutes later

a chair has tipped over.

and above it, the noose

is now swinging.

We are being told a story there.

That to me suggests that there is a presence here

that presence is intelligent.

That presence wants people to know,

"Here's what happened."

Tim comes to that same conclusion

When he wraps up his investigation, he is convinced

that the house is haunted by the woman who died here.

And possibly some others.

Now this woman was in fact practicing witchcraft.

She might have invited other entities

to live within her space.

Maybe if she opened up a portal, trapped these energies within her home

and now she haunts the space with the energies that she brought

forth through her magic.

Whatever is happening here,

the spirits do not rest in peace.

Coming up.

Baffling bright lights in the sky...

- What is it? - Look at it.

...stun a group of people in Philly.

Unidentified flying objects.

Oh my god!

When you spot something unfamiliar in the sky

there are a number of things it could be.

A satellite.

Chinese lanterns.

Or maybe even a drone.

But, if it suddenly displays some kind of startling behavior

and is witnessed by others around you

who are just as baffled,

then it's time to listen to your gut.

What is it?

Just ask a man in Philadelphia...

What is it?

...who recently captured a mysterious light show in the sky.

There's another one coming.

...and was sure it could only be one thing.

An unidentified flying object.

Oh my god!

October 2020, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

It's just before midnight,

Jerel Crew and his wife have just wrapped up an evening

of entertaining friends

When Jerel...

...gets an unexpected call.

My name is Jerel and this is my video.

I got a phone call from my brother telling me, hey,

my nephew, who lived down the street from us

was seeing some things in the sky that he could not identify.

Jerel heads to his back porch to investigate.

And what he sees blows his mind.

A single glowing ball, flying across the sky.

At that point, I grabbed my wife, we ran to the front of the house, outside

to see what was going on,

and there it was in the air.

What is it?

But now, there are two.

What is it? What is it?

What you really couldn't see from the video was the actual color of these guys.

They were like a, more of a orange color

as they were going across the sky.

It was just like, what am I seeing here?

This is unbelievable.

And it's about to get even more so.

There's another one, look.

What is it? What is it?

There's another one coming

Three lights are now fully visible in the sky.

And then I started to feel like, okay, everything that I thought is true.

I know we're not the only ones in this vast galaxy.

I've had this experience several times, seeing exactly

what they've seen and it mystifies me every single time.

There is definitely intelligence behind these things.

Babe. Babe, come look.

I grab my neighbors to look at this thing so everyone

could see what I was talking about.

Are they, the... um, what you call them?

Jerel, that thing that you fly.

No!

It was not a drone, it was not a plane,

it was not a hot air balloon.

It was something from another place.

Unidentified flying objects.

One, two, three of 'em.

We don't know everything that is in our aerospace.

Most of it we can attribute to commercial flights, military flights,

things that are just natural, weather balloons, satellites, launches...

There's a subset of things in the sky that we just can't

easily and readily identify and when more than one person

sees it and is baffled by it,

that makes you second guess, okay, well, what is it?

Then, incredibly,

the first two objects, seem to disappear

one right after the other.

Oh, my God!

It was like they were hyper... travelling to another space

When they, once they reached their particular part of the sky, they just

boom. It actually came to that spot and it was like, boom.

- Where's your other one? - Just watch.

Nothing that I know of can multiply or disappear like

what we see in this clip.

I don't know if it's multiple lights on a larger object

and that object is turning which is why these lights look

like they're dimming and going out.

But they're certainly multiple lights coming in and out of view.

Videos like this are just proving that there's more

things being seen in the sky.

Maybe this is a sign that, uh, if there is alien life out there

maybe they are ready to make some kind of contact with us.

Whatever was captured on camera that night is still up for debate

but not for Jerel.

I am absolutely, one hundred percent a believer now.

I felt like, I felt so special that night that

I was afforded this opportunity to see what I saw in the sky.

And I can tell you again, over and over again that this was not from here.

It was something from another galaxy.

Unidentified flying objects.

Oh, my God!

Coming up.

A little girl climbs into a cupboard and encounters

a ghoulish creature.

There's a mythical creature from Hispanic folklore

whose name derives fromduen de casa

or master of the house.

It's called, the Duende.

These elf-like creatures are said to dwell in tight spaces

such as, inside the walls of houses,

particularly in the bedrooms of children.

And they're believed

to cause some very serious mischief.

But, are they real?

Recently, a family in Mexico might have captured proof

that they are.

October 2019, Leon, Guanajuato, Mexico.

A toddler named Maria Jose is playing in her favorite spot

the kitchen cabinet.

She's been obsessed with it since her family moved

into this house, two months ago.

Maria's father, Oscar, films her as she's in the cabinet.

As Maria's aunt, Jessica Ramirez stands nearby.

I am Jessica Ramirez and this is our video.

Oscar posts the video on social media

to share with family and friends.

Soon after, one of their cousins, points out something disturbing.

Watch closely.

Did you catch that?

Watch again, in slow motion

as a pale, spindly hand, quickly pops into frame

then, scurries back into the cabinet.

Whenever you see a child playing and somehow there is

some sort of menacing or supernatural presence

you know, you really feel for them because they're

so vulnerable

and in this case even more so because the child has itself wedged into this

cabinet and it's not like it can run away

if something is in there with it.

It appears to have at least two fingers and it

darts into the frame and back out just as quickly.

It certainly isn't a part of the girl herself.

But what is it?

It just doesn't look like a regular human being.

It is really small and it's just creepy to think

that there was something right next to that little girl.

So, if it's not a human hand,

then what is it?

And, could it explain Maria's obsession

with wanting to play inside that cabinet?

I think we kind of get an idea as to why she is so obsessed

with playing around there and it's probably because there's

a little spirit energy that she probably thinks is an imaginary friend

but in reality is a little spiritual friend.

My mind does not go to ghosts here.

Instead I'm thinking, duende.

Now these are elves or gnome like creatures

in Mexico, in Latin America that are said to either

hang out in forests or sometimes they dwell

within the walls of homes.

In some stories, they are said to enchant children

and lead them back into the forest.

But in other tales, they're trying to be helpful.

They might even clip the toe nails of children as they sleep.

Except, sometimes they take off the entire toe.

Terrifying.

Worried that whatever the hand belongs to

could have evil intentions,

the family has a priest come by to bless the house.

And it works.

Then, after a few months of still trying to figure out what the hand was

the family decides, it's best to let it go.

Whatever that strange hand actually belongs to, remains a mystery.

But the episode served to reinforce the family's belief

in the afterlife.

What should you do in the event you witness something paranormal?

Here's some tips to get it all on camera.

Anybody?

Trust that what you're seeing

really is other worldly.

Check your footage for anything unusual.

Never stop filming.

No way, no way. Oh, my God.

Even if you're scared.
