Next on Paranormal Caught on Camera,

a psychic medium in Texas...

If that was a ghost, give me another sign, anything.

- Oh, my God. - ...is tormented

by a poltergeist.

Holy!

What the!

I had never wanted to move before,

but I wanted to move away this time,

and I didn't wanna play with it anymore.

Ghost hunters in Thailand

play dead,

but the dead

aren't playing around.

It almost looked like somebody grabbed

a fistful of his shirt

and tried to pull him up out of the crypts.

Is this figure

lounging on a Massachusetts couch

the Grim Reaper?

It was really disturbing to see.

Could a spontaneous backyard maelstrom

be a battle between good

- and evil? - Looked like a fight.

There was something fighting each other

and we don't know what that something was.

And even more paranormal footage

you have to see...

...to believe.

Psychic mediums,

gifted individuals

who have the ability

to communicate with the dead.

But this extraordinary talent

comes with a price...

...because there are some entities

who want to communicate

in their own special way.

And when that happens,

there isn't a whole lot

a psychic medium can do.

Just ask a woman in Texas

who is battling an energy

so intense,

it ran her right out

her own front door.

Oh, my God!

Waxahachie, Texas.

Medium Stephanie Almaguer

has been battling some serious psychic energy

for years,

and it's been following her

from home to home.

My name is Stephanie Almaguer

and these are my videos.

I am a psychic medium.

I see dead people.

I believe that we have so much activity

because I had just started into this mediumship.

It goes just really into that and they...

...they came.

And shortly after Stephanie

moved into a new home in May 2012,

they came...

often.

I would say within a couple of weeks,

the smoke alarm kept beeping and beeping and beeping.

Beep, beep, like

every minute of...

It never stopped.

Even without batteries,

the alarms

keep going off.

So, Stephanie begins to record

room by room,

hoping to catch something.

There's nobody in here.

There's nobody.

Kids are all at school. My husband's at work.

There's nobody in the living room.

There's nobody.

So far, everything is quiet,

until she hits the master bedroom.

As you can see, there is nobody in my house.

There is nothing.

Now...

Okay.

Do you hear that? My TV just came on.

The TV in the living room

turns on all by itself...

and that's just the beginning.

If that was a ghost,

give me another sign.

Anything, anything...

You gotta be kidding me.

Does everybody see that?

The light.

When Stephanie checks the hallway light...

There is nobody in this house.

Look, the lights are right there.

If anybody at all, I'm gonna turn it off.

It was even a...

Look, if anybody...

Holy!

What the!

Oh, my God!

Watch again, in slow motion...

...turn it off.

...as the bedroom door

slams in Stephanie's face...

! What the!

...sending her running for cover.

Oh, my God!

Oh, my God!

One year

and a new home later,

Stephanie is still plagued

by paranormal activity,

and now

it's affecting her kids.

What is it?

Why are the chairs upside down?

Exactly.

Did you do it?

Day after day,

the family's fear and frustration build

as whatever it is won't leave them alone...

I'm gonna go ahead and set the camera up

and see if I can get anything

while I'm picking up the house.

...causing Stephanie

to leave cameras running continuously

in multiple rooms.

I thought when we moved,

it would stop.

This is insane.

Stop!

Then one day,

while Stephanie naps on the couch,

things get personal.

Watch closely.

As an unknown force

pulls the blanket off her body.

And even more terrifying

is what happens a short while later

after she's pulled the blanket

back up.

Something can be seen moving

within the upper edge of the couch.

And whatever is inside

seems to want to get out.

Oh, my God!

This made me want to move.

I had never wanted to move before,

but I wanted to move away

this time, and I didn't wanna play with it anymore.

Needless to say,

the family moves out of house number two.

So, what is happening here?

Oh, my God!

I think it's conceivable

that most people possess

at least a baseline of psychic sensitivity.

I equate it to having a landline telephone.

But for some people,

that come online as mediums,

it's like going from that landline

to having a high speed broadband connection.

Please leave me alone.

Did you do it?

To me, it seems like some kind of poltergeist activity,

and you have chairs being turned upside down

and things are moving around,

things missing, uh, it's shaking.

Oh, my God!

Maybe.

Or could it be something much more present

and sinister?

It is hard to think of a time

when we are more vulnerable

than when we are sound asleep.

To think

that something is choosing

that moment

to actually begin interacting with our bodies.

That, to me, says,

"Okay, this is something

that isn't just moving things,

it's physically here,

making these things happen."

Oh, my God!

Fortunately, the wild activity

seems to have finally stopped.

Since we moved into the house that we built,

we have not had any activity whatsoever.

And in the end,

Stephanie feels she's learned a valuable lesson

about dabbling

in the supernatural.

I wanted to know there was life

after death.

So for the most part,

it's been mind-opening,

but it can get out of hand

if you let it, and that's what happened.

Holy!

What the!

Oh, my God!

Coming up, a graveyard ritual

in Thailand

turns terrifying.

We've all heard the stories

of spirits

tormenting humans.

But what happens

when it's the humans

- that torment the spirits?

That's exactly what three men set out to do

in Thailand...

...using a bizarre ritual,

that backfired,

big time.

August 2021,

Nakhon Ratchasima, Thailand.

It's late one night

when three men,

Tawechai, Obito,

and cameraman, Pongpan,

enter a cemetery

for the unclaimed dead.

My name is Mr. Pongpan Suttum.

I am Mr. Tawechai Suttum.

The men have come here tonight

with a very specific purpose.

It's a dark and dangerous ritual

performed inside a coffin.

Specifically,

a newly emptied coffin

of an unclaimed body

that was cremated.

First,

they light incense.

Next,

they entice the spirits with a gift

of trickery.

Then, Obito

lays inside the coffin.

Obito lays in the coffin

for over an hour

when suddenly...

Watch again,

as Obito's shirt seems to be pulled up

by some invisible force,

totally freaking him out.

And...

...it's not over yet.

Wise choice.

So...

What just happened here?

This is someone getting

into a tomb,

lying down in an open grave,

in a cemetery

full of unidentified bodies

when really, clearly

something grabs his shirt

and yanks it upward, incredibly hard.

And if you pause it at the right moment,

you see that there is nothing under the T-shirt

and it almost looks like there's a fist impression

under the T-shirt as it comes up

and then drops back down.

And then he gets up

and runs to his buddy

and he's explaining what just happened.

And again, it looks like somebody grabs

the back of his T-shirt by the collar

and whips him down,

like a defensive lineman on a quarterback.

When the investigator lays in the grave,

it's an example of using a trigger object

to attract activity.

But in this case,

he is the trigger.

So, if you're going to seek answers

in this way or even provoke,

then you better be prepared

for what happens next.

Clearly,

they weren't.

But the question remains,

having successfully provoked the paranormal,

how should Pongpan,

Tawechai and Obito

move forward?

Honestly, I think that

one of the best ways to move forward

might be, first, having asked permission,

now ask forgiveness

and maybe

consider performing some of those

elements of funeral rites

for some of the actual deceased

unknown people in those graves.

Respect is a concept

that transcends borders and language.

And even though these investigators

do ask permission

to do what they're doing

of the spirits,

maybe the things that were happening to them,

like the shirt getting tugged,

the investigator being yanked backward,

maybe that was a resounding no.

Coming up,

did a door cam in Massachusetts

capture a specter

of death?

The story of the Grim Reaper is,

well, grim indeed.

Because when this skeletal figure,

draped in a black hooded robe,

appears wielding a giant scythe,

it's come to reap a soul.

But could the Grim Reaper...

...be real?

Possibly,

according to one family from Massachusetts,

who were so certain they caught death

on their door cam.

They immediately packed up

and ran.

October 2020,

Springfield, Massachusetts,

the Bourget family is home

one fall afternoon

when their door cam

sends them an alert.

They have a delivery.

Hi, my name is David Bourget,

and this is little David Bourget.

This is our video.

The camera alerted me

that there was motion at my front door.

David opens the door

to retrieve the package,

causing the door cam

to point toward the inside of the house.

When I opened the door

to see what was going on,

I noticed my package was damaged.

I wanted to see if that was because the guy dropped it

or just it came destroyed.

So, when we went back

to see how the package showed up on the video camera,

that's when we noticed it.

What they notice is this.

Watch closely.

Do you see it?

Here, next to David's wife,

a chilling figure

with a skeletal face

and black hooded robe.

As David moves around the room,

he blocks the camera

for a few moments,

but when he steps out of the way,

the frightening figure

is still there,

staring straight ahead.

I was like, "God,

that doesn't look normal at all."

Deep black, sinking eyes,

very old looking skin

that looks kind of melted with this

weird black hair.

And it had a hood on

with a gray, pale face.

It was really disturbing to see.

Especially because

David's wife

is the only other person

in the living room.

My mom was on the couch.

Dad was picking up a package.

I was upstairs playing video games

and also my sister as well,

she was just upstairs in her room.

So, what is this thing?

It seems as though

someone or something

is seated next to the mother on the couch.

And when you zoom in,

there definitely seems to be facial features, hair,

a seeming body.

And the thing that's the scariest,

the thing that looks the most garish is the face.

I mean,

this did not look like

a person.

The face of this figure that's sitting on the couch

almost seems to go back and forth

between being pale and blank

and almost like skeletal,

like a skull with,

you know, thick black hair hanging down over it.

Whoever or whatever it is,

it's certainly not seen by the woman.

She may not have seen it,

but she did

feel it.

My wife felt very cold and she was in pain

right where the ghost was.

When I heard my mom was physically affected by this,

it kind of scares you a bit.

It's very scary to think that

something from not this world

can harm someone like that.

They can't always give us an EVP, they can't always make something move.

But if they can make us feel the way they do,

that is a very basic form of communication.

The fact that the mother felt the presence

through like a cold spot, through pains in her arms

might suggest the fact that there is an entity attached to her specifically.

But what kind of attachment could it be?

And how exactly

did it get here?

It did not feel friendly at all.

There are theories

that in order for demons to enter your home,

they have to be invited in.

But in a day and age of constant deliveries

from online orders,

we absent-mindedly

open the door

and pick up our package.

Who knows what else

you are letting in?

It looks like the Grim Reaper.

It looks like death.

If you wanna know what death, the Grim Reaper, looks like,

that's what it'll look like to me.

The Bourgets agree.

We've tried to find out what it is

from different sources.

They just say,

looks like a Grim Reaper,

run away, move out.

So, we took the advice and moved.

That's all we needed was to see it once,

packed up the family and moved to Florida.

That's always a pretty hefty piece of evidence

for how seriously people take things like this.

When someone moves,

they literally

sell their home and go somewhere else.

In response to an event like this,

it shows us that this isn't stuff

to be taken lightly.

If this family was so disturbed

by this experience that they needed to move

and they have since found peace,

then I think that's great.

But that is not always the case

with spectral attachments.

Just because you leave,

doesn't mean you're not being followed.

Fortunately, since their move,

the Bourgets haven't seen or felt

the being again.

This is the couch that it happened on,

so, you know, if it was gonna attach itself,

it would have attached to the couch.

But since it's not,

we're feeling pretty good about that. - Yeah, we kinda got rid of it.

Yeah, we feel we've gotten rid of the spirit.

Coming up, a woman

recording a video for social media...

...captures a shadow figure.

Have you ever heard the term

"feeling of presence"?

It's the phenomenon

of sensing

when someone is behind you,

and it's always unsettling,

especially when that someone

turns out to be a ghost.

That's what happened to two different people in Mexico

and they're still reeling

from the experience.

December 2020,

Nuevo Leon, Mexico.

Victoria Martinez

is visiting her grandfather one evening

when something chilling happens.

Hi, I'm Victoria Martinez,

and this is my video.

While upstairs,

Victoria decides to record a quick video

for a social media challenge

called your model face.

Watch closely as she does.

Did you see it?

Watch again,

as a small, shadowy figure

darts behind Victoria

midway through the video.

And Victoria

senses it almost immediately.

And when she reviews the video

and actually sees what she was sensing,

she is totally freaked out.

Something,

but what?

As she's trying to discover her model face on TikTok,

you see this solid black shape

run from left to right behind her.

It looks to be about maybe two and a half,

three feet tall.

That almost looks like a gnome-like creature,

or maybe a child sized creature

that's walking like a human but seems really small.

You can kind of tell that although she doesn't see it,

she senses that it's there.

She looks over with a sort of perplexed

expression on her face.

I think she captured

a good old shadow person.

Shadow people tend to be the antithesis of light,

so they tend to show up darker than anything,

they're completely void of light.

To make matters worse,

Victoria believes whatever it is

followed her back home

from her grandfather's house.

And Victoria isn't the only one,

looking for a little peace.

A few years earlier,

down in Mexico City,

Kriselle Luna is living in an apartment

with a disturbing past.

My name is Kriselle Luna and I recorded the video.

That fact and some unexplained activity

caused Kriselle to suspect that her home is haunted

by the woman who died there.

So she decides to share the story on social media,

and when she reviews the video,

her suspicion is confirmed.

Watch closely.

Did you see it?

Watch again, in slow motion,

as a white, vaporous figure

passes behind Kriselle.

This is not like a shadow person,

this is like, uh, apparition

that is not fully formed,

so it just kind of has like this white, grayish,

you know, color to it.

If it's the ghost of a previous owner

who died in this house,

it could simply be a repeating imprint,

a residual impression left of someone

who regularly, every day

walked those same halls,

followed that same path.

Homes are intensely personal locations.

We invest a lot of energy into them

and they've become extensions of ourselves.

So, the older woman

that passed away in Kriselle's home

may continue to exist there in the form of,

maybe a psychic residue

or as a spectral roommate.

More like eternal roommate,

because when Kriselle shows the video

to the superintendent...

...and that makes Kriselle

number three.

She moves out shortly after,

forever changed by the experience.

Maybe we all should be.

I'm a big proponent of listening

to your gut instincts

when you think something is about to happen.

So, if you feel your spidey senses tingling

and there's a crackling in the air,

bust out that smartphone.

Coming up, is this dog in Georgia

surrounded by a supernatural storm?

Good and evil, there are those who believe

that these two forces

are constantly at war,

not only here on Earth,

but also beyond

in an otherworldly realm

we cannot possibly see.

But every now and then,

there is a rift between worlds

that allows the beings from that other place

to break through,

if only for a moment.

Just ask one family in Georgia,

who may have caught a veritable storm of spirits

battling it out

in their own backyard.

December 2020,

Austell, Georgia.

Douglas Hicks' dog, Paris,

has been acting strange lately,

barking every night and into the early morning,

waking the entire house.

Douglas is concerned.

My name is Douglas and I own this video.

She started acting up every morning.

At five o'clock in the morning,

she was barking.

Barking.

I thought she was sick.

Like, what's going on with you?

What's bothering you?

And we didn't know.

So, that morning, my wife said, "Well, let me take her out."

So, I was upstairs

and my wife went downstairs to take her out,

and something told me to get on my camera

to make sure that my wife was okay.

But after his wife comes back inside,

Douglas continues to watch the security feed

to keep an eye on Paris.

At first, she is simply sniffing around.

And then something just spooked her, she jumped.

And I just kept recording.

Paris, now clearly agitated,

pulls at her leash and away

from something.

Moments later,

that something appears.

Watch as a mysterious mist rises from the ground,

balloons in size

and with shocking speed

flies straight at the camera.

I saw like smoke coming out of nowhere,

like, oh, maybe the air conditioner is on fire

and then it started getting bigger and bigger.

It was crazy, it was like, wow.

The mist envelops the entire screen

and is also visible on another camera

before suddenly...

...disappearing.

This is nuts. This is not something

that I feel like we see a lot.

All of a sudden there is just

this obvious mist or smoke

or billowing presence right in front of the camera,

obscuring our view.

There's clearly something there.

I mean, we see it not just on one camera, but on two.

The dog is aware of it.

There's something happening there.

At one point, this mist or fog

or smoke gets so thick

that you would think that there's like a... a brushfire

taking place just over the fence.

But that's not the case.

There doesn't seem to be any source for this,

and it's swirling around so violently,

you would think that maybe there's a strong wind

or a tornado or something,

but nothing else in the video seems to be moving.

Even more bizarre

is what happens when Douglas's wife

goes back out into this massive mist storm

to retrieve Paris.

I asked her if she saw anything.

She said she saw nothing.

And I said, "Well, you were surrounded by a lot

of activity when you went to pick up the dog."

She was shocked

and her mouth wouldn't close.

She was shocked.

The fact that the awake human

who went outside

to bring in the dog saw nothing,

that seems especially telling.

We don't know whether the dog actually saw it

or perhaps just sensed it

in some other way,

but it seems to be something that

only the video camera itself

could perceive visually.

And when Douglas reviews the footage later,

he catches something else

that would have been nearly impossible to see

with the naked eye.

Right before everything cleared up,

you'll catch it like wings flying

and you'll see, like a, like a tail...

as it, as it took off, something was chasing It.

Looked like a fight.

There was something fighting each other.

Something, but what?

Douglas has an idea.

Maybe it's something protecting us

from something,

and we don't know what that something was.

Douglas says that he feels like

there are two entities here

that something is attacking the house,

something is fighting them,

whereas something else is protecting them.

Well, the thing to remember is that if there are demons,

then there are angels,

and even if we don't call them by those names,

they will be hashing it out amongst themselves.

I believe that there are entities

on this planet that coincide

in an energy field that maybe we cannot understand.

And I like to call them elementals.

And yes, they get spoken about

in many different forms and terms,

angels, demons, fairies, goblins, gnomes.

I mean, who's to say

we're not talking about interdimensional creatures,

like the Jersey Devil at this point,

you know what I mean?

Douglas is still not certain

what was happening on that night,

but he does know this.

If it ever happens again,

he'll have plenty of warning.

She's the one that discovered everything,

um, she's the one that we thought

was something wrong with her.

And she actually was letting us know that we have visitors.

So, this is Paris

and she is the one that found the ghost.

Coming up, a UFO in Colombia...

...glows green.

Phoenix, Roswell,

Area 51.

Locations that are practically synonymous

with UFOs.

But as far as alien hotspots go,

they're old news.

Just ask the citizens of Colombia, South America,

who are quickly finding themselves at the epicenter

of outer space's newest travel destination.

And as one couple in Medellin can attest to,

they just keep coming.

July 2020, Medellin, Colombia.

Juan Morales and Paola Castaneda

are out walking their dog

when something in the sky stops them cold.

It's a disc-shaped craft

looming high above the mountains.

And what makes this object even more remarkable

is the ring of green lights surrounding it.

Hi, my name is Paola, and this is my husband, Juan.

We recorded this video.

We see what looks like one craft

with these different lights, green lights, bluish lights

that are glowing and it seems to be just

hovering stationary almost as if it knows it's being watched.

The fact that the light is green,

I think is interesting because that's certainly a color that...

that we have long associated with aliens,

with extraterrestrials, both in popular culture and in folklore,

little green men.

These are locals, and presumably

they would know what the environment around them

looks like or what it should look like.

So the fact that they are seeing

these strange green lights

simply hovering there, not moving,

and it catches them off guard,

that right there is notable.

Notable and perhaps

a little disturbing, because if it is extraterrestrial,

what exactly is it doing here?

Any time we see a UFO like this

that appears to just be hovering,

one of the first questions that comes to mind

is what's it watching.

Why is it here in this place?

And it does seem like there's other lights in this area

that maybe were attracting

this object's attention,

that maybe this object was here

to look into or monitor perhaps.

If this is alien activity,

they could be checking out different areas,

and the fact that they seem to show up

time and time again in certain spots over and over,

there's something to do with that land or the resources there.

Whatever this thing was

and whatever it was doing,

Juan and Paola, will keep their eyes on the sky for it,

should it ever return,

which, given the location,

seems pretty likely.

What should you do in the event

you witness something paranormal?

Here are some tips to get it all on camera.

Never stop recording,

even when you're scared.

Trust that what you're seeing really is otherworldly.

Check your footage for anything unusual.
