Next on Paranormal Caught on Camera,

a group of investigators summon the spirit

of a gangster in a haunted mansion.

A man by the door?

Right behind her, I saw this man really quickly,

just this shadow figure of a man.

A man in Tennessee comes face to face...

- Oh, my god. - ...with Bigfoot.

It seemed to have much longer arms than its own torso

and gave me this whole ape-like kind of proportion.

A man in California captures a statue

in his home moving on its own.

This thing we captured 100% real,

and I'd go to the grave with that.

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

to believe.

According to a recent survey in the United States,

40% of respondents claim to have witnessed

unexplained phenomena in their homes.

And if this seems like a high percentage to you, consider this.

40% is just the portion of people

who've noticed the activity,

meaning it's likely there's plenty of activity that goes unnoticed

in countless homes across the country,

possibly even yours.

But if you want to know for sure,

just do what one man in California did.

Set up a camera and see what you get.

2009, in La Puente, California.

It's the middle of the night, and all is quiet

as a camera records in Chris HonkoskI's living room,

a camera that Chris, his brother,

and their cousin have set up for a very specific reason.

My name is Christopher Honkoski, and I recorded this video.

The house was originally purchased by my dad's parents

back in the early '50s.

Weird things used to happen at this house, even back then.

When he was a teenager, my dad has a really good story

about him waking up at night and seeing a lady

walk into his room.

So things have been going on here for a long time.

And that led us back up to when we were getting older,

thinking like, well, we might as well try to capture something on video.

So that day, we set up cameras in the house thinking like,

we're probably not gonna get anything, you know?

Because what are the odds of capturing something, like,

when you hook up cameras?

But on the very first night the cameras are rolling,

the one they set up in the home's living room

captures something inexplicable.

Watch behind the dresser.

As this sped up footage shows,

Over the course of almost three minutes,

a 28-pound statue of a giraffe ever so slowly

seems to inch itself across Chris's living room floor

before finally coming to a stop.

Chris's brother and cousin are the first to review the footage the following day.

And they are stunned.

I vividly remember them calling me because I was at work.

And they were like in shock. And they couldn't believe it.

And they were like, "Tell us how you did it.

Tell us how you did it. This is crazy."

And I was like, "What do you mean?'

They're like, the giraffe statue is moving on its own.

It just creeps its head, like, around.

And then it starts moving, moving, moving.

And even at one point in the video, it almost tips over.

I don't know if something was holding it there

from falling all the way.

It was really something to capture that thing moving, for sure.

It's the lack of jump scare, if you will,

that actually makes this so unsettling.

What's really freaky about this video

is as the giraffe is scooting out,

it almost looks like as the neck comes out, the head turns.

It takes a lot of energy to move an object

without a physical body, you know?

And so when I see this...

giraffe sculpture kind of sliding across from behind

that big armoire, it's like going so slowly.

It's more legitimate to me just because

I've had personal experiences seeing objects like that.

Originally, I'm like, "this is so cool."

Like, "what did we capture?"

And then after it started to, like, sink in, it's like,

it kind of scared us because something had that power

and energy to move something that heavy.

It probably knew, like, "hey, they're recording, so let's show them."

You know, "let's show them that we're here."

But who exactly is we?

We know that old buildings can retain energies

and aspects from all along their point in history,

but this is even more robust.

This is something where the same family, the same people,

generations of the same family have existed in this building.

So we get this doubled layer effect.

I think places like this are great candidates

for a haunting because there is such a huge

emotional attachment to the home.

It was grandma's home and now her family,

her descendants are living in this home.

So there's just gotta be a huge emotional attachment to this place.

It certainly seems that way.

But despite striking paranormal gold on the very first night,

We set up the cameras again every night,

and we focused more in that corner because we're like,

you know, we want to get it clear.

And after that, it didn't move the giraffe again.

Like, we focused on it. I think we were too much,

and it already had proved itself to us.

Whatever the reason for its lack of reappearing,

Chris is just grateful to have captured this one piece

of evidence to go along with the stories

before the family moved out of the house in 2016.

Anyone who asks me, they bring up ghosts,

and I'm like, I have a video, and they don't believe me,

and then they watch it, and they're like, "Oh, wow, that's pretty cool."

Like, I'm passionate about it. Like, I've had it for a long time,

and I love to tell the story.

This thing we captured 100% real,

and I'd go to the grave with that.

Coming up, what kind of creature is lurking

in this Tennessee backyard?

Oh, my God. Oh, my God.

It is estimated that sometime during November of 2022,

the world population reached 8 billion for the first time.

And while the number of people on Earth continues to grow,

the amount of space on the planet remains the same,

meaning there'll be less places to hide for the non-human creatures.

And we're not just talking about lions, tigers, and bears.

That's what one man in Tennessee

may have been witness to when he walked out

into his backyard and saw this...

Oh, my God.

Oh, my God.

October 2023, in Baxter, Tennessee.

A man who wishes to remain anonymous

is walking to his car with a companion

when they hear something rustling on the edge of the property.

And when they go to investigate the sounds,

they see this.

Hey, just, do you see that?

Do you see that?

A figure.

Dark, hulking, bipedal.

Oh, my God.

Oh, my God.

And intimidating enough for the man to think better

about staring at it for too long.

Oh, my God. Did you see that?

So he cuts the camera, heads inside,

and eventually sends the footage to his close friend,

local paranormal investigator Clay Shiner,

who posts the video online where it explodes, almost overnight.

My name is Clay Shiner. I live in Baxter, Tennessee.

My father was our area's first go-to paranormal response man

a long time ago, and he taught me

pretty much everything in the field.

Knowing that I'm really into the paranormal

and the kind of the go-to guy around here to ask about it,

my friend sent it to me.

Hey, just, do you see that?

Do you see that?

At first, I asked him, "Are you pranking me?"

Because I thought, this looks too good,

and this looks too weird.

And he said, "No, I swear, I don't know what this is,

and I kind of wanted your opinion on it."

Oh, my God.

Do you see that?

I have seen other Bigfoot videos of people here

in the mid-state, in here in Tennessee,

and I've never seen anything as clear as that,

because it's in broad daylight.

It blew my mind.

And that daylight provides a much clearer view...

Do you see that?

...than usual.

It's a tall, human-like figure that seems to be

completely covered from head to toe in very dark hair or fur.

Oh, my God.

Oh, my God.

Something that you don't normally see

in other Bigfoot sightings was the wingspan of this creature.

It seemed to have much longer arms than its own torso

and gave me this whole ape-like kind of proportion.

And if it is, in fact, Bigfoot,

it wouldn't be a first for the area.

It makes sense that they would be seen here

in the Middle Tennessee area because they are very, very prevalent

in Middle Kentucky, and they're also very,

very prevalent in Northern Georgia and in Eastern Tennessee.

We often think of Bigfoot sightings

primarily in the deep woods of the Northwest,

so like Oregon, Washington, Alaska.

But these sightings do happen around the country in the South,

the Midwest, so in states like Tennessee.

But beyond the figure's look and location,

perhaps what's most revealing are its actions.

One of the common behaviors that people will report with

a Bigfoot encounter is almost this rocking

back and forth that they do.

They're trying to take a look at what they're looking at across,

and it seems to behave in a very similar fashion.

Hey, just, do you see that?

It seems to almost be spying on the person who's filming it,

yet doesn't seem to want to be detected by him.

It's sort of hiding in there.

This is something that we are used to seeing

in purported footage of the Sasquatch or of Bigfoot,

this sort of hesitance when spotted of,

"I don't want to make any quick moves.

I don't want to run across this wide open area.

I'm sort of going to hedge my bets and maybe stay right here."

But while that may be its tendency now,

Clay believes it may not be able to do that for much longer.

As towns get bigger and we start building more houses

and start moving out more, I do believe that people

will start seeing more and more

of these Sasquatch creatures or Bigfoots because...

There are habitats out there in the woods,

out there in the wild, and as we start to populate

more and more out in the woods and build more and expand more,

we're going to cross paths with them more.

And what that means for us is anybody's guess.

But whatever happens, Clay is excited

about the possibilities.

Every time I go anywhere, to the store,

to the gas station, or to anything like that,

they always ask me, you know, did you really see the Baxter Bigfoot?

And I always tell them, I didn't see it.

I just shared it. But I believe in it.

Oh, my God.

Oh, my God.

Coming up...

A family is terrorized...

...by a ghost named Jerry.

In psychology, there's a theory

that the moment you give something a name, you give it power.

And while merely naming something might sound innocuous,

when that something is an entity

that's living in your apartment,

things can go sideways, fast.

That's what happened to one family in the Middle East.

And they're still looking for a way out.

Summer 2022, in Dubai, United Arab Emirates.

A man who goes by the nickname Zark

has been living in an apartment with his wife and young son for three years.

But then, something shifts.

Drastic, unexplained temperature changes,

and doors opening up on their own.

And perhaps most bizarrely, his son begins to reference

a specific name of someone while playing.

Jerry.

Hi, my name is Zark and these are my videos.

Until one event that makes Zark and his wife realize

that their son's friend is anything but imaginary.

Watch closely as their son colors a coloring book on the living room floor.

Watch again as his coloring book

is yanked away by an unseen force.

That's Zark's son once again...

- Jerry. - ...refers to as Jerry.

You can see that it's not the child himself moving it.

His arm stays in position. He's not swiping it away.

His arms are staying still, and he knows something strange has just happened.

Having a coloring book ripped out of your hands

and running to a parent and being like, "Hey, Jerry did it."

Like, there's something inherently believable about that.

And so I think that adds to this.

And though Zark's wife doesn't see the activity at the time,

when she reviews the footage later...

And that could be a problem.

They've named it. They've given it a personality.

Now, this connection is de facto permission.

If they wanted activity to quiet down,

this is not the way to go about it.

And in fact, from that point on,

the activity in Zark's apartment only ramps up,

particularly at night, with rhythmic banging.

Could you please stop?

And perhaps most disturbing...

...voice mimicry of Zark's own voice.

When he hears his own voice projected back at him.

It's so creepy because it is your voice.

It belongs to you.

And now there is something else,

something you cannot see that is co-opting it

as if you don't have full control over your own body

or over your own voice.

Eventually, for Zark,

It all starts to take a mental toll.

And that's why Zark finally decides to move

his family out of the apartment.

In the new home, the activity stops,

but only for a few months.

So Zark digs a little deeper into what the source of Jerry could be.

Could you please stop?

And at this point,

Zark is ready to take drastic measures to get rid of it.

I think you have to have an open mind and realize

that you might need some help with eradicating the spirit.

So this idea that he's willing to try anything,

I think is the right approach.

And he's open to that. So I think there's a possibility that

this will be taken care of pretty quickly.

Let's hope for Zark and his family's sake it works.

Could you please stop?

Coming up, four paranormal investigators

in a haunted mansion...

I walked in here and my chest was just like...

...are visited by one of its ghosts.

Man by the door?

During paranormal investigations,

the goal of investigators is most often focused

on capturing evidence of a haunting on camera.

But while visual proof is always paramount...

...sometimes a location is so haunted

and an investigator is so sensitive

that the finer details of the capture bypass the camera

and go directly into the mind of the investigator.

Such was the case with one woman in Nevada...

I walked in here and my chest was just like.

...who captured something extraordinary on camera,

but then saw something even more so.

August 2023, in Virginia City, Nevada,

Kelsi Davies and her friends Mackenzie, Jasmine, and Victor

are at the reportedly haunted Mackie Mansion,

hoping to contact any of the numerous spirits

that supposedly dwell there.

There's so much history here.

There were deaths that happened here.

There's a lot going on.

I'm Kelsi Davies, and this is my video.

I know it was owned by the Mackey family, I believe.

So there's a lot of the family members that still haunt the home.

And I feel like it's built on some sort of land that,

you know, has just so much energy with it

and so much residual energy.

There was also a murder that happened inside of the home

with two men who tried to break in.

I'd heard about different experiences,

that it was just a really, really haunted place.

And for one of the team members, Jasmine,

the Mackey Mansion is apparently so haunted...

Do you want to come in? No? You want to wait? - No.

- I'll wait downstairs. - Okay.

...that almost right away, she is overwhelmed.

- Yes. - Jasmine, are you okay?

I feel like crying, like crying.

- When you're up there? - Yeah.

She was really feeling something,

and I think it was just really intense for her.

I feel, like, shaky. Watch, grab my hand.

Like, I feel shaky.

When you're investigating the paranormal,

there will be many times that you will actually feel

or take on the vibration or the energy of the spirit

or the entity that is on that property.

If whatever's haunting the location

that's full of sorrow and sadness, you'll feel that.

If anything's trying to connect with Jasmine,

please don't do that. It's a lot.

I had to go and just kind of give her some of my energy

and just kind of help the spirit know that

she's not used to that, so let's not do that.

Jasmine might not be used to that, but Kelsi is.

Which may be why, just minutes later...

This is actually a vault.

...when a worker tells the story about

an attempted robbery at the mansion's vault,

a physical reaction Kelsi was experiencing earlier

starts to make sense.

Two men broke in here thinking the guard would be gone.

He slung the door open. He shot them both in the chest.

And unfortunately, they died right where you're standing.

- This is why. See? - Oh.

My chest hurts so bad. I couldn't figure out what it was.

So I told them, I was like, my chest is hurting right now.

And I just felt this immense pressure.

It wasn't necessarily anything bad.

It was just something that was there.

Maybe I was picking up on some residual energy.

I walked in here and my chest was just like...

Oh, my God.

That direct tie between a specific experience

that someone is having, not just a random,

oh, "I feel strange," but, "my chest hurts."

And the actual historical knowledge,

someone was shot in the chest right here,

those two things take on so much more meaning

when you put them together.

We have a lot of vague stuff that happens with hauntings.

This isn't that. This is really specific.

And the haunting becomes even more specific

when the group begins a spirit box session

in the same spot where the would-be bandits died of their wounds.

Calling out to the spirits of this home,

if there's anyone who wants to come forward to us.

And only a few minutes into the session...

Oh, my God, I just saw a man by the door.

- Oh, my God, holy. - Man by the door?

Holy, there was a man literally in front of the vault.

Did you catch it?

Watch again.

Behind Mackenzie's head, a light goes out in the vault.

Right before a dark shadow,

flies out of it.

It seems like they had a light source in the vault room.

And one of the things that I'm thinking happened

is maybe in order for this energy to manifest,

you see that whatever is in that room drains that light source

and then manifests as a shadow and leaves the room.

It validates that moment for me.

But even more validating for Kelsi,

- is what she saw. - Oh, my God.

I just saw a man by the door. Oh, my god. Holy. - Man by the door?

Holy, there was a man literally in front of the vault.

I just saw his full...

Oh, I just saw his whole body.

So usually when I see spirits, it's through my mind's eye

and this one was, like, a person really quickly.

So that really surprised me because I'm very open.

I'm clairvoyant, so I do see a lot of things, I feel things.

The way that the camera picks it up

is different than the way that I'm gonna perceive it.

So we've had instances where I'll see something,

and then it shows up as an orb on the camera,

or it'll show up as a mist or something.

And it's really, really cool to see and really validating.

And also, not so uncommon.

Oh, I just saw his whole body.

I've actually been in an asylum before

and I walked into a room and I saw with my naked eye,

a soldier standing at attention.

He didn't acknowledge me, but I saw him.

It's like I walked into his world.

And once we played the footage back,

All you could see was like a little light spot,

like, you wouldn't even pay attention to it.

You would think it was just maybe like a light glare on the wall.

So what if that soldier wasn't there,

but he allowed me to see him in my mind?

I don't know. I know that sounds so crazy.

But come on, we're talking about ghosts.

Like, how crazy could it be?

Clearly, not so crazy.

And at the Mackie Mansion, anything is possible.

We were absolutely in touch with the spirits

that are known to hang out in the Mackie Mansion.

Yes, there were a lot of surprises,

but it was more excitement and just passion

because me and my friends are just,

we're very passionate about what we do.

Oh my God, I just saw a man by the door.

- Oh, my God, holy. - Man by the door?

Holy, there was a man literally in front of the vault.

Coming up,

a man using a high-speed camera captures three UFOs.

There are some who believe that aliens have not only visited Earth,

but have been continuously surveilling us since the dawn of civilization,

and have only managed to stay mostly undetected

because for millennia, human technology simply wasn't up to the task.

But as our tech progresses exponentially

and breaks unimaginable barriers,

It's only a matter of time before the curtain covering alien activity

is peeled all the way back.

Case in point,

a man in Las Vegas filmed a sunny skyline

using an ultra-high speed camera and captured this.

April 20th, 2023.

In Las Vegas, Nevada,

Joshua P. Warren is in his backyard,

pointing a camera directly at the clear afternoon sky.

But not just any camera.

Hi, I'm Joshua P. Warren, and I filmed this video.

I'm a podcaster and paranormal investigator,

so I'm always looking out for the weird and mysterious.

Pilots say some of these UAP can fly over 1,000 miles per hour.

So I decided to go out and film the sky over my house.

I took this special camera, and it's a high-speed camera.

It's able to film 1,000 frames per second.

So literally, you can put this thing outside,

point it at the sky, and shoot 1,000 pictures in one second.

Which is exactly what Joshua does many times.

And when he reviews his footage, most of it is unremarkable,

with the exception of one extraordinary capture.

An orb-shaped object moves across the sky,

then appears to shoot out a smaller orb

before abruptly changing direction.

And finally,

a third unidentified object darts by.

I was absolutely shocked.

I shot over two dozen clips and every single one of them

was perfectly normal, perfectly blank.

They were all shot under the exact same conditions.

To have potentially three different objects here,

not only three objects, but some kind of an interaction,

it seems like, where one object...

shoots from the other.

And then to see one of these objects make that

amazing 90-degree turn, I mean, it boggles the mind

to think that all of this could be happening

in less than two seconds.

This thing had to be moving at a rate of speed

that is unknown to man.

I mean, if it was occupied by humans,

they would have been crushed from the g-force of this thing.

This isn't a drone. This isn't a helicopter.

This isn't a bird.

It's moving too fast.

The distance it's covering, we're only able to see it

because it was filmed with a high-speed camera.

Consider the frame rate here.

Think about the speed that this is actually happening.

At any given time, this could be going on

directly above our heads, and in the blink of an eye, we would miss it.

Which begs the question,

what exactly is it?

I've come to the conclusion that in many cases,

these are interdimensional craft

that may almost be like drones

that have an artificial intelligence.

And I say that because I don't always think

we're talking about a saucer with a little green man inside at a steering wheel.

In the same way humans send out probes to other planets,

that maybe there are other dimensions

that send things here into our realm to explore.

We're talking about stuff that's light years ahead of us.

I don't think it's an unreasonable assumption

that if we're being visited by a non-human intelligence,

they would have technologies that could traverse our atmosphere

using alternative means of propulsion

that displaces inertia, wind resistance, whatever,

they could travel at thousands of miles an hour perhaps.

It's possible they're only captured on cameras

that capture higher frame rate.

Which could mean that as human technology continues to advance,

perhaps one day soon,

seeing UFOs in the sky will be the norm rather than the exception.

And until then, Joshua will be keeping the fastest camera

he can get his hands on pointed skyward.

If these craft or these objects are traveling

as fast as they are, you could capture one anywhere.

And if more people start doing this,

that's going to be our next big breakthrough.

And I'm hoping to inspire others to get out there

and try it for themselves.

Coming up,

is this cryptid hunting animals at a Texas zoo?

When it comes to cryptids, whether Bigfoot,

the Loch Ness Monster, chupacabra,

or any of the countless others,

it's easy to forget that as vastly different

as they are from us, we do share at least one common trait.

We all have to eat to survive.

But while humans have devised organized methods

to feed ourselves,

Cryptids still seem to prefer the hunt.

And what better hunting grounds

for maximum variety and minimum effort

than your local zoo?

That's what might have been happening

one recent night at a zoo in Texas.

And they have the evidence to prove it.

May 2022, in Amarillo, Texas.

It's morning at the Amarillo Zoo,

and employees are reviewing the previous night's motion captures

from game cameras placed across the property.

And though most are fairly routine,

One camera that faces an especially obscure area of the zoo

captures something unlike anything they have ever seen.

It's a large, apparently bipedal creature

with an unmistakably animal-like head,

but arms and hands that appear at least somewhat human.

Stumped at what it could possibly be,

zoo officials post the photo on social media asking for help.

And it quickly goes viral.

This is one of the most bizarre things I've ever seen.

It looks like a mane. It looks like there's a tail.

There's no question that whatever this is,

it looks humanoid, except not.

We have this animal-like tuft of hair or fur on top,

and it seems like it's slightly hunched over,

and it's hard for me to determine whether

it's looking forward, so we would be seeing it in profile,

or it's facing the camera.

It generally looks like a human form,

except when you get up to about the chest

and shoulders and head, where it takes on

what looks more like a canine appearance.

So, part human, part canine.

What exactly are we looking at?

We do hear stories of dog men

who kind of walk bipedal, but have like canine features.

I mean, that's very well documented in a few books even.

In fact, in Amarillo, I heard of one account

of two women who had a flat tire on the side of the road

and were attacked by what they called a dog man.

Plus, there are reports coming out of this area

and throughout Texas for at least 100 years

of a bipedal creature with a dog-like

or wolf-like appearance.

If it was one of these creatures,

zoo officials can take this as a warning

to keep a close eye on all their residents.

I mean, a zoo houses hundreds of animals.

If you know anything about canine creatures,

they are attracted to the scent of other animals

because they could be potential prey animals.

Listen, anything like that, you can tell it eats animals.

And to them, a zoo is like a live grocery store.

It's like an open-air market for that whatever that is.

So I can't even knock him. He going straight to the source.

Straight to the source.

Thankfully, according to zoo officials,

no animals were harmed around the time of the sighting,

which, though good news for the zoo animals,

could simply mean that whatever it was

found its meal somewhere else.

Anything that walks upright that's not a person,

it ain't right. It ain't right.

It ain't right.

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

Here are some tips to get it all on camera.

Oh, my God. I just saw a man by the door.

Oh, my God. Holy. - Man by the door?

Check your footage, and then check it again.

Trust that what you're seeing really is something paranormal.

Oh, my God.

- Be brave. - Could you please stop?

- But not too brave. -
