[Narrator] What's even creepier than knowing

about something tragic that happened

is seeing it happen before your very eyes.

Whether it is something we find buried in our backyard

or even something we can find in a crime investigation,

found footage can be very important for giving us

a creepy first hand look at what was exactly happening

in the event being filmed.

In particular, a student named Chad

at the University of New York found a small

reel of film that he called the Bitterroot Footage.

Chad had just moved into an apartment

and was in desperate need of some furniture.

Luckily, he had met a guy on Craigslist

who was willing to get rid of lots of furniture

for very cheap prices and he had accepted his offer.

His purchase came with a bunch of other random things

including a small wooden box.

The box had really intrigued him.

But since it was locked and he didn't have a key for it

he had to pop it open with a screw driver.

Inside contained three photos with the word

Bitterroot written on the backs of all of them,

and a small reel of film.

Chad's friend was a film student at the same

university and was able to recognize it as

eight millimeter film.

With that being said, they were able to obtain

an eight millimeter projector that they'd got online

and were finally able to watch it.

What they found was disturbing.

(projector clicking) (eerie high pitched tone)

The authenticity of the film can be disputed

but the purpose of the film

or what exact message it's trying

to get across is unknown.

You want a video of people trying to get a message across,

then that certainly goes to the Columbine Tapes.

On April 20th, 1999, two high school seniors named

Dylan Klebold and Eric Harris shot up Columbine High School

in Littleton Colorado, killing 15 people,

including themselves.

After the shooting, the FBI had found lots of evidence

including journals, emails and of course found footage

that brought them to the conclusion as to why

they committed this crime.

Some of these videos consisted of them carrying guns

around and plotting the massacre.

However, Dylan and Eric didn't really try

to keep it a secret.

They had carried a camera around at school sometimes

and even did projects with people,

hinting at the event.

Surprisingly, it seems that it wasn't until after

that people began to realize that they were warning

everybody about this premonition.

[Eric] Now's your (mumbles)

No you god damn piece of punk ass shit,

do not mess with that frigging kid.

Gonna pull out a god damn shot gun

and blow your damn head off, do you understand,

you little worthless piece of crap?

(gun cocking)

(bee bees shooting)

(muted fireworks exploding)

[Narrator] While some of the footage has been

confiscated by the FBI, there is still a lot of footage

out there that clearly foreshadows one of the most

tragic school shootings in history.

This group of 1500 people meet every July

for 17 days in the sacred forest Monte Rio, California

called Bohemian Grove.

These group of people are known as a club called

the Bohemian club and are believed to be members

of the Illuminati.

All of the members are males,

particularly in the music business and politics.

There are many notable past members of the club

such as Richard Nixon and Ronald Reagan.

But modern memberships are now classified.

The club is known to do very strange rituals

such as the Cremation of Care which is the ceremony

performed in front of a giant concrete owl statue.

There was so much conspiracy regarding the club

on how it is a secret society that somebody

was able to get footage of the ceremony

and many people believe that it is video

of a human sacrifice.

(bagpipes playing)

[Man] Show me the sign.

[Man] This summer sets us free.

You'll burn me once again?

(man singing)

[Man] This summer sets us free.

(screaming)

(yelling and applause)

[Narrator] This footage goes to show what wealth

and power can do when put together.

Two people named Leonard Lake and Charles Ng

were American serial killers who were believed

to have raped and killed around 25 people

in the early 1980's.

The authorities have been alerted about their crimes

after a suicide note left by Lake had been found.

After searching around Lake's cabin,

they have discovered video tapes that reveal lots

of evidence that they murdered a number of different people.

Lake had killed his brother and friends to obtain

their money and had used the money to build a dungeon

where him and Ng would keep their victims.

The following footage is of a woman who is seen

being harassed by the killers.

[Brenda] Why are you doing this?

[Lake] Because we hate you.

Your baby is going to be taken away.

[Brenda] What do you mean taken away?

[Lake] There's a family in Fresno that doesn't have

a baby.

[Brenda] You're not taking my baby from me.

[Ng] It is better than the baby's dead, right?

[Brenda] What do you mean they've got one now?

[Narrator] The police had also found a number

of burned body parts buried in Lake's ranch,

right by the dungeon.

Video of the kind of actions that serial killers

do to their victims can be very hard to watch.

[Boy] This big, all right, if it's a male

you might have lines like that from the baldness.

[Narrator] Grave Robbing for Morons is

a very strange video.

It is footage of a boy carrying a skull

and describing how to properly take care of a body

after digging it up.

Just about everything in this video is creepy

including how the boy talks.

It's a bit, it's very,

it's hard to find, okay?

And it's very, you could lose it real fast all right?

Okay so you,

to make sure that,

you take the dentures and make sure they're with 'em

so that way the person knows who this person is, all right?

Keep doing it for the fun soon.

And our next big hit is Houdini.

If you're watching this video,

then you'll know who he was.

Bye bye.

[Narrator] The story behind this footage

has very little detail and the people involved

with the video or the videos exact origins

are completely unknown.

This one is a bonus, because I thought it was

just as interesting as the other stories.

This story is very short.

A man bought a whole bunch of VHS tapes at a boot sale.

Most of the tapes were movies, but he found one tape

that was very obscure and different from the rest.

(static)

(screams)

(chaotic cacophony)

(woman whimpering and pleading unintelligibly)

(deranged muttering)

Hey everyone.

My name's Henry and I can't explain what I found.

My brother Ronald and my dad went missing.

And ya know, people told me that there's stuff going on.

People told me that there's stuff

that I wouldn't understand.

He called me before it happened,

or should I say before he went missing.

And what I found, throughout however many tapes I find,

I'm gonna show you, I'm gonna show you what I found.

I'm gonna throw in the tapes

wherever I see fit for you guys.

Now I don't know who's gonna watch this.

Ya know, I was told by the police investigators

I shouldn't even document anything about this

due to the nature of their disappearance, right?

I gotta let someone know.

I'm probably gonna upload this to YouTube

or a social media site or something.

Everything you're about to see has not been tampered with.

There's no actors, there's no fake scripts.

There's nothing scripted about this footage.

My brother, I love him so much,

and now I'm outside

in a barn because I found more tapes.

You can hear our dog's going crazy,

they haven't really fed it for like,

I don't know how long.

Somehow they're being kept up, ya know?

They're standing.

I just flew in and I had to document it.

Here ya go.

(baby crying)

I knew I should have given her up.

I hate myself for letting them talk me out of it.

And I can't get a good night's sleep.

These dreams I'm having are so fucked up.

Shut up!

Shut up, shut up.

The other day, I swerved off the road

and I hit a guard rail.

I just hoped that here and I both would fly off

the freeway into the traffic below.

Instead I got stranded with a flat tire in a hot car.

And I just wanted to walk away and leave her there.

Maybe she would have died,

maybe some pathetic couple would have found her.

Coulda started all over again.

Last night, I picked her up and threw her across the room,

just to get a fucking moment of silence.

Shut the fuck up!

Shut the fuck up!

God!

(baby crying)

Whatever, it's mine.

It's Kelly, please call me back.

Okay?

I really need you to call me back.

(sharp thud)

(wet cracking)

[Woman] Beware, Freddie's here.

(sinister chuckling)

Hey everybody, it's the twisted freak.

Freddie Decay.

I'm here with a little nursery rhyme for you.

One, two, Freddie's coming for you.

Three, four, better lock your door.

Five, six, grab your crucifix.

(creepy giggling)

Seven, eight, better stay up late.

Nine, 10, never sleep again.

(creepy giggling)

I'm coming for you.

Each and every one of you.

(creepy giggling)

How do I look?

All right.

I'm gonna let you go, just for a little bit.

The neighbor wants to borrow you.

That's okay, I'll get you back.

Ooo, battery's dying.

Ooo.

(door opening)

Oh.

Well, hello Ronald.

[Ronald] It's Ronny baby.

It's Ronny.

All right?

Oh yeah, wow.

Something wrong with your voice.

[Ronald] Nah, nah, nah, we can uh,

you wanna come on in?

We could shoot some stuff, ya know?

Well yeah, I wanna show you how to work it.

Do you know how to work that thing?

[Ronald] Yeah only if you bring your sister over.

My sister can't come, she's with her boyfriend,

or slave of the week or whatever.

[Ronald] Oh she's gonna come over.

She's gonna come all right baby, oh yeah.

Seriously.

(Ronald chuckles creepily)

I'm sorry what did you say about my sister.

I said she's gonna, she's gonna come and you can

call me Ronny.

Ronald.

[Ronald] Ronny.

Yeah, if you wanna take off some of those clothes

that's cool, do too.

What the fuck did you just say to me?

[Ronald] I said you can take off those clothes

if you want.

Dude.

[Ronald] Come on now.

Dude.

Inappropriate.

[Ronald] It's PoV babe.

Do you wanna borrow my fucking camera or not.

[Ronald] Yeah, yeah, yeah, just want those though,

you know what I'm saying.

All right, I'm getting the fuck out of here.

Seriously?

Seriously!

(door slams)

[Man] Looks like we have the place to ourselves.

Yep, all to ourselves.

[Man] You know what that means, right?

No, what?

[Man] It's time for my going away present.

Not here.

[Man] What? Why not?

You got some other Joe to take care of you when I'm gone?

You know that's not true.

[Man] Come on baby.

I don't know how long I'll be gone on tour.

Just put the camera down,

we can take care of that later.

[Man] All right.

(giggling)

Hold that thought.

I've got something else for you.

One sec.

Okay.

[Tessie] Okay, close your eyes.

Okay.

[Tessie] No, no, no, cover them.

But make sure they're closed.

All right.

What the fuck?

(man grunts) (liquid splattering)

(man grunts) (repeated thudding)

(wet thudding)

Hey Dwayne.

Are you busy?

(traffic passing)

(rap music thumping in car)

(lips smacking)

What's with the camera?

[Tessie] Nothing.

Thought you were supposed to be with your man

Nole tonight.

(Tessie chuckles)

Did you do it?

Did you tell him?

[Tessie] Actually, I did something better.

(Tessie laughs)

Here, hold this.

(Dwayne chuckles)

[Dwayne] Fuck is that?

[Tessie] Here!

Come here and look.

[Dwayne] The fuck Tessie!

(bat thunks)

[Tessie] So you guys think you can play me.

What?

- Fuck you! - No!

(wet thud)

(bat clatters)

All right bitches, it's working.

Thank god my daddy got me this new phone.

It's not even out on the market yet.

Gotta love those Japanese fuckers.

Good Blanca, way to make the rest of us feel like shit.

Bite me bitch.

You'd like it too much.

[Blanca] You're probably right.

Okay so ladies, we have something important to discuss.

Yeah, and tonight, we're all gonna get twisted.

Well, somewhat twisted.

This is really important guys.

They're only going to hire one of us from the internship

and they decide in two weeks.

Yeah and the funny thing is, I'm gonna be the one

that gets hired.

Whether you guys like it or not.

Yeah right, bitch, I got this.

Woah, nails down, nails down.

Okay, okay, okay, why are we gonna talk about it?

Let's just let it happen,

that's the best thing we can do right now.

I mean, as long as it's one of use that gets the job

and not one of those other skanks or losers.

I totally agree.

But are we all gonna be like mad at each other

if one of us gets it.

We all know I'm gonna get the job.

I sucked off Mr. Jenkins.

The internship supervisor?

Ew, gross.

Yeah, well, who's the only intern with an office?

Okay, I have a better idea.

How 'bout we go to a club and rub up on some hot guys?

I like the sound of that.

Let's hit the nest.

All right bitches get in this.

Yeah, get in it.

All right say hello to your fans.

[Girl] No, don't record that.

Hey come on.

[Girl] I have to pee.

Whatever.

Come on let's go.

Are you serious?

[Girl] I'm getting tired of your shit Blanca, let's go.

Can't wait to get wasted tonight.

[Blanca] I'm not gonna hold your hair when you puke.

[Driver] Tess, hurry the fuck up.

Keep your panties on, I'm coming.

[Driver] What were you, taking a shit?

Leave it to my sister to call me out.

[Blanca] Remember to flush?

Fuck off.

[Blanca] Enough!

your way tonight.

Hey, record this.

[Driver] Come on already, just get in.

[Blanca] Fuck you.

Hurry up!

[Woman] (whispering) What the fuck is happening?

As soon as the van stops, make a break for it.

Will you let me go?

Shut up.

Why are you doing this?

Shut the fuck up or I'm gonna shut you up permanently.

Okay, okay, I'm sorry.

(fabric rustling)

Shit, what is Blanca's password on her phone?

Try 1195.

It didn't work.

Shit, why does she have a fucking password on the phone.

We can't make calls but the camera works.

What are we gonna do?

Run.

Where?

Where the fuck are we even?

When they took us in the van it was like 15 minutes.

What direction?

Why are they doing this?

(man chanting gruffly)

Go bring another one, we're almost to the full aspect.

Do you want one of the marked ones?

I don't care.

Just bring one to the fire.

[Man] Where do you think you're going?

[Man] The time is upon us!

Throw the last body in.

He's here.

He's here.

The time is upon us.

(knocking)

(small dog barking)

(knocking)

Hey.

Round two?

[Ronald] Uh yeah.

Nice camera dick face.

So, remember what we talked about on the phone?

[Ronald] Yep, I do.

[Blair] Wow, look at this.

[Ronald] Yeah.

I'll sit here, okay.

[Ronald] So, um, I need to apologize for something.

Oh wait.

Come here little buddy, lemme take that.

Hold on.

[Sister] It's not that hard to say sorry.

You're right, you're right, it's not hard to say sorry.

Okay look, I'm, I was somewhat of a pervert yesterday

and uh,

[Blair] Go on.

I'm just sorry.

I don't know who I was.

I said some bad things and I shouldn't have said it.

There, that's your apology.

I'm sorry,

all right.

[Blair] Hmm.

You like that camera on me don't you?

[Blair] Yeah.

[Sister] Well, since we have it on you,

why don't you explain to the world why your hair's blue?

(Blair laughs)

[Blair] Sorry, it looks great Marge,

I'm sure Homer's gonna jump in the sack with you

and tear your blue hair all over.

It matches my eyes, okay?

[Blair] And your car apparently.

Your smurfmobile.

Was that your car in the driveway?

Yeah.

[Blair] So what's your favorite color Ronny boy?

Fucking blue, all right, anyways (sighs).

[Blair] Attitude.

Look there's another reason why I did bring you guys

over here.

[Blair] Oh, oh, I know, you wanted to tell us

about your creep ways, huh?

I know you're that peeping Tom staring at your

next door neighbors through the windows,

filming 'em?

No, I just have a fat neighbor with glasses

who thinks he's the god of film and everything else.

[Blair] Dude, you have something against fucking

fat people with fucking glasses, huh, fucker?

No, no, I don't.

But I'm just saying, I mean, I (sighs).

[Sister] Not to break up your guys's stimulating

conversation, but one you're actual neighbor,

the fat guy with long hair and glasses,

actually pretty cool.

And we're technically two doors down, so,

don't be a fucking creep and getting us in the shower

or anything else.

Look, just 'cause I almost tried one time

doesn't mean you guys have to bring it up every time.

Fucking knew it.

[Sister] Liar.

He's gonna put that bullshit on the internet.

Sister.

[Sister] Fucking, I'll tell my dad.

Well,

We're gonna tell our mom.

That's worse, right?

Mom will fucking have your ass.

Anyways, um, no, my dad's been missing

for a couple days.

- Aliens? - Aliens yeah.

[Sister] Blair!

What?

No.

[Sister] What makes you think he's missing?

Well, he was on a,

he's been working on this case at work, okay?

And he's been consumed with it and one night,

he didn't come in.

Nothing, nothing, he just didn't come in.

And I went to the strip clubs in case you're wondering,

okay, and I went,

I woulda seen him.

You would have, wouldn't you?

(sister laughs)

Probably gave your dad a little lap dance there buddy.

(laughs)

Wow.

I'm just kidding.

- Did he at least tip or? - Creepster.

Look,

On.

Look, I have some stuff I found in his room

and I need your guys's help, so yeah.

Just stay right here, I'm gonna go get it.

All right, is that fine?

Am I gonna have any more attitude with you two?

[Sister] Just go and get it.

[Blair] You're so uptight.

[Ronald] Yeah.

(door handle rattling)

[Sister] Say hi to the camera.

Hello.

We're waiting right now for Ronny boy,

he's going to get his fucking porn stash.

[Sister] (laughing) Probably.

It's gay porn, I know it.

[Sister] (laughing) Probably.

[Ronald] All right.

[Buster] Hey Skaggs, I made mac, come on in and eat.

Hey whatcha working on?

Huh? Whatcha working on?

[Skaggs] Pipe bomb.

[Buster] Okay.

I made mac, come on in and eat.

Why you filming all this?

Well, I figure like this, we record what we do

during the day, and once there's a full tape,

we send it to Mom so she can watch it.

It's almost like Mom was hear with us.

It's almost like the camera is Mamma, sitting there

having mac with us.

Mamma's dead Buster.

It's just us now.

Understand?

I understand.

Ain't nobody else.

Just me and you.

And it's up to us, listen to me Buster,

it's up to us to make things right, ya understand?

I understand.

And there ain't no tape in that camera,

so don't go digging around in there with a screw driver

trying to find one, you'll break it.

(fork clanks)

[Buster] I don't get why we're doing all this.

Seems like a lot of trouble.

[Skags] I told you, we've been wronged.

[Buster] Hey, I remember that backpack.

It's the one I used to use after we got back

from Iraq.

Remember that Skaggs?

Yep, I remember.

[Buster] Man, it seems like forever ago.

I remember we were in the unemployment office all the time

and I carried all the paperwork and stuff in that bag.

Used to keep your books in there.

Remember that cookbook you used to sit and read? (laughs)

That was funny.

The Anarchist cook book?

Yeah, I remember.

[Buster] That's a funny title.

You know what, keep filming bro.

We're gonna put this up on the internet

when we get to Bogota.

You got a stand for that thing?

[Buster] (snickering) You mean a tripod?

Yeah, yeah.

Is that thing on?

Yeah.

Good.

Okay, here's the thing.

Here's why we did it.

The government, our government, sent us over seas

to kill strangers.

But we volunteered Skaggs.

That don't matter.

Killing people is not what we signed up for.

Getting half the meat on my leg burned off by an IED

is not what I signed up for.

And then we come home.

They don't wanna help with the medical bills.

Or finding a job.

That ain't right.

They owe me.

That's right bro.

You're goddamn right that's right.

What about Mamma?

When Mamma got sick, they pulled her Medicare.

And she died.

She died in a filthy bed, in horrible pain,

with me holding her hand.

And it's the government's fault.

They owe me, they owe us.

And they're gonna pay.

They're gonna pay today.

Preach on, brother.

Get the camera.

You be careful with that bag.

I'm no bomb expert, but I don't think it would take

a whole hell of a lot to set that thing off.

[Buster] Okay.

Do you know where this place is?

[Skaggs] Yeah, Federal building right up the street.

We'll put that at the entrance,

call the cell phone detonator from a few blocks away,

watch the fireworks and we'll be long gone

by the time they figure out it was us.

You know, you're pretty smart Skaggs.

I bet it's 'cause you read a lot.

You know, you should be a scientist.

I bet you'd be a number one scientist in the whole world.

[Skaggs] And you'd by my number two scientist, bro.

Look at these kids.

They don't have a clue what the real world's all about.

Living in a cess pool run by evil little cockroaches.

All they wanna do is run the streets

and laugh like there ain't no problems.

Yeah, idiots.

Yes sir, yes sir.

Knock out game.

(thud)

This our game, mother fucker.

Get your ass down.

(several thuds)

Mother fucker.

(grunts and thuds)

Fuck you!

Skaggs!

Skaggs, you okay?

Knock out?

Knockout game, are you kidding me?

You hurt my brother!

You owe me!

You owe us!

- Knock out game! - Buster no!

(bomb exploding)

What's up boys and girls.

It's the twisted freak.

It was such a rainy, beautiful day.

I decided to come out in my shop

and have a little fun.

(chuckles)

Let the madness take me for a little while.

There was so much blood.

Hey psychopath, we get bad names like we're crazy

or we're insane.

I don't think so.

We are what makes the world go round.

'Cause without us, life would be boring.

So, think we'd come out and kill a few.

Reduce the population of idiots in the world.

I'm sorry Vixen ain't here today.

She had something to do,

but she told me what I needed to do before

she left for the day.

She said, "Twisted, this face doesn't suit you.

"This does not suit the twisted freak." She said.

We must show the world how sick and twisted you can look.

(chuckles dementedly)

So I did what she said this morning.

(laughs dementedly)

No more damaged.

I'm just a twisted freak.

Here to show you the way.

(laughs dementedly)

And now I have a smile on my face.

Yeah, my dad always said if you wanna get rid

of a Beta max, either you tape over it,

or you smash it with a hammer.

So do you like have a VCR to play all these?

Yeah, I have a Betamax player upstairs actually.

Okay Mr. Betamaster.

What the hell is this piece of shit?

Well, no.

- That's - Pretty old.

My camera, and that's why I had to use yours.

[Blair] Ah.

Yeah, it's a little bit more unprofessional

if I want to document something,

I have to get a better camera.

Mine's smaller and grainy, yours is bigger and slimmer.

[Blair] (laughing) I'm sorry, what are we talking

about here?

The camera.

[Blair] The camera? (laughs)

You guys are both ridiculous.

[Blair] Well, I have to say, Margie,

that your blue hair looks fabulous.

Yeah.

[Blair] Okay, so, let's talk about what's gonna happen.

So you're gonna pop these little tapes in the VCR

and the grudge is gonna come out

and she's gonna get you.

[Ronald] Yeah, that's great Blair.

That's great.

Good, okay.

Well, um, I have one favor.

[Ronald] Okay.

- You're using my camera. - Yeah?

- That's a favor. - Great.

- This is my condition back. - Okay.

You need to take this camera and you need to put it up

when you are watching these VCR tapes

and the grudge comes out to get you,

'cause I wanna see that shit.

[Sister] But it was the ring, not the grudge.

And I think it's more like he's hoping to find some clues,

to help understand what happened to his dad

and who did what to 'im.

[Ronald] Pretty much, yeah.

Well, I'm still going with uh

the aliens.

Yeah, you're so smart Blair, you blow my mind.

[Blair] Yeah, you wish.

All right, I'm out.

Okay, I think I've got it.

Is it on?

So, I'm James Clinton

and I'm wanting to get to the bottom

of the Cottonwood Murders.

I'm 22, I'm a college student

and I'm studying mass communications.

And I've been assigned to do a documentary

on any given topic.

Well, the Cottonwood murders have never been solved.

So I figured I would find out more information

on this topic and present my theory

on who may have committed these murders.

Really?

Cameras this early?

[James] Yeah, I figured why not document everything

you do.

'Cause that's honestly a little creepy.

[James] Don't worry I have the bathrooms rigged

with security cameras also.

Tell everyone a little bit about yourself.

James no.

Okay, so Denise, tell everyone who you are

and what you're doing with this documentary.

Okay, so I'm Denise.

I'm a fellow filmmaker with James here.

And I'm assisting him on his journey to discover

what really happened with the Cottonwood murders

and why they never got the killer.

Isn't it funny that after all these years,

they still haven't caught the killer?

Actually it's pretty common for police

to just overlook certain clues and never determine

what actually happened.

Overlook clues, what do you mean?

Not necessarily overlook, just they get excited

about something, they miss something obvious

and not it's our job to help them figure it out.

But we're gonna have problems with that.

What do you mean?

I mean we're not cops.

We can't just go interrogating the police for information.

(James chuckles)

Why is that funny?

Because I already have Officer Lamry on call to do

a video chat and discuss the murders.

Officer Lamry, who the hell's that?

He's the head detective for the Cottonwood case.

We'll talk to him later.

But first we should do some research.

Let's go to the library.

[Denise] So I just press this red button?

Yep, but don't press it now,

you're already recording.

[Denise] Yeah.

Okay, so we're on our way to the library to do some research

on the Cottonwood murders.

Hang on, do you think they'll let us

bring the camera inside?

They fucking better, this is my final grade.

I've got to get this in.

Seriously slit a throat if I don't finish this.

[Denise] That's good.

That doesn't scare me in any way, shape or form,

doing documentary on serial killers, murders

and you talking about slitting throats,

that's not scary at all.

Dude, seriously?

[Denise] Go ahead.

How's this gonna work?

(whispering) I got this girl.

We gotta find a computer.

There we go, look, here's a computer.

Let's start.

Look, it says here that there's footage

of the killings happening.

It says that each of the victims became

paranoid in some way and set up cameras in their room

because they were afraid of someone coming in.

(Denise whispers too quiet for microphone)

Yeah, tell me about it.

It also says here that right after the killing,

the killer cut off the tape

before they revealed themselves.

That's pretty genius, horrific at the same time.

This person knows what they're doing.

They're becoming famous without any recognition.

Okay so we have the detective coming up on video chat

right now and we are gonna get some answers.

Okay, I've almost got it.

It says he's online.

And we're good to go.

[James] Okay, connect with him.

Already on.

[James] Dude, grab this and film me talking to him.

I'm not a dude and why can't I talk to him?

[James] Just do it.

[Denise] God...

Hey Detective.

I'm James and this is Denise.

Thank you for doing an interview with us.

It's my pleasure James.

But just so you know, I can't give you a lot of information.

It's an ongoing investigation

and I don't wanna lose my job.

Completely understandable Detective.

Why don't you start by just introducing yourself

and your role in the investigation?

Well, I'm Detective Mike Lamry... PD.

I've been on the force for 22 years,

and I've been on the Cottonwood case

for the past three years.

We have yet to find out any motive

or any persons of interest.

How is it that you haven't had a POI,

or person of interest in this case at all?

We honestly have no leads other than the video tapes

that you heard about on the news.

Aside from showing how the murders happened,

the tapes themselves reveal almost nothing.

But they do reveal something?

Over the years, the killer or killers are growing,

becoming more skillful.

It's as if they are learning more with each kill.

Now, while this isn't entirely uncommon,

I find it disturbing and smart at the same time.

Then there's the grow factor.

Grow factor?

Whoever's doing this, they're growing.

Not just in skill and proficiency,

but literally, physically growing.

In the early murders, forensic estimated

the killer's height to be 5'2",

but the last murder put the killer at 5'6".

Are you saying that a young teenager has been committing

these murders?

It would seem unlikely, but the evidence points

in that direction.

But we have no real leads.

We can't question every high school student in the county,

that just wouldn't be feasible.

Is there anything else you can tell us about the murders?

Honestly James, I just want you to be careful.

This is a touchy subject and if somebody finds out

about your project it might piss some off.

Serial killers don't think like normal people.

They kill without any regret.

Just be careful.

Okay, we will.

Thank you so much for your time.

My pleasure James.

Well, that was a little intense.

(Denise's voice obscured by video distortion)

I have no clue.

Could be our age.

Okay, yes, this is a little weird for a documentary,

but I figure why not put myself in the victim's shoes?

Is it creepy?

Yes, but it's getting into the moment, so whatever.

What are you doing?

Oh god.

I'm your friend.

(James screaming) (squishing thuds)

Don't we look cute?

How was that for your fucking documentary?

Time to do some deleting.

(static)

What is this about?

Heather's leaving and she wanted me to record some stuff

while she's in Europe so she can feel more at home.

That's so cheesy.

Maybe, but she's our friend.

You're friend you mean.

[Male] So that's high praise coming from you.

Remember that time that we went to the lake

and she was all like, you're so brave to wear a bikini.

She knows how I feel, I doubt it'll come as a surprise.

Speaking of surprises, did you hear about Pauline Fleming?

The one from high school?

Yeah, that from sophomore year, homecoming queen,

the nice hair.

Mmhmm.

Last week she killed herself, she hung herself.

Get the fuck out of here.

Yeah, it's pretty crazy.

[Heather] Hmm, what's crazy?

Pauline Fleming from high school,

she hung herself last week.

Oh, the one with the hair?

Yeah, that's her.

Hmm, well, that's a tragedy.

Let's just talk happy stuff.

I mean I do leave for Europe in a week,

and then Paris and Prague and who freaking else cares?

Thank you Ronnie so much for doing this video thing for me.

I mean, it means so much.

I love you so much.

Oh and uh, you too Betty.

Yeah.

I'm so happy to do it Heather.

It's like I'm going too that way.

(fireworks popping)

Enough of that shit, you guys aren't gonna believe this.

What?

Brenda Walsh, that beauty queen who went to West Brook,

she was found dead from an apparent suicide.

It says she posted to social media that she was

gonna do it, then she was found dead in the bathtub

with her wrists slashed.

What is up with these people?

It's like killing yourself is going trendy.

Yeah, everyone just, I mean, anything to be popular,

but whatever.

I gotta go kids.

Busy, busy, so much to do before...

[Betty And Ronnie] You go to Europe, we know.

(woman moaning)

Hey, just video taping a little bit of home sweet home

before you leave.

Little memories like that time you got fucked up on

Jaeger bombs and I had to hold your hair in the bathroom.

That was disgusting.

Or the time we made s'mores, not so disgusting.

I can still smell the chocolate.

Oh my god that was super good.

Or the time at the barbecue.

That was so much fun and the food was really good.

[Voice On Phone] What's going on?

What are you talking about?

[Voice On Phone] Veronica?

What are you doing here?

Veronica, shhh.

What the fuck?

Remember Veronica, that guy in high school, J.D.?

He used to have like sexual fantasies

every time he would try to choke me out while

we had sex.

Huh, do you remember him?

(Veronica grunting and gasping)

He kinda taught me a thing or two.

Yeah.

(Veronica choking)

Nighty night princess.

(sighs)

♫ Cemetery

♫ I want you both to dance on my grave

♫ I'll strip to the

I thought we were friends?

I know, I know.

You know, it's just so hard being this pretty.

Like you don't understand all the stress I go through.

Ronnie, you really were a good friend.

And I'm gonna miss you, Besty.

Fuck you.

I thought you would understand all this.

But, you know, I never really noticed how perfect I am,

and I have to be the only one that is perfect.

You can't have better lips than me, and you do.

And you can't have better hair than me, or teeth

or anything about that nature, so,

What are you doing?

So tonight, you're gonna OD on heroine.

Fuck off you crazy bitch.

(Heather laughs)

Guess you must have been hiding it from everyone.

So, let's see.

So then tonight, I mean, you just couldn't take it anymore

since you were, you just couldn't take it anymore, life.

So you're just gonna show that you were ODing

Get the fuck away from me.

Get the fuck away from me!

(Ronnie screams)

Fuck off!

That was the first one, five milligrams.

You're gonna be feeling pretty fine right about now, Ronnie.

Fucking crazy bitch.

(laughs) And this.

You were my friend!

Bye bye birdie.

All right, so this, you're gonna be making history, Ronnie.

(Heather sighs)

(Veronica breathes heavily)

Almost there.

(distorted water swishing)

(knocking)

[Woman] Veronica?

Veronica?

Woah.

Is this stuff real?

Yeah.

Man your dad had a found footage fetish or something.

No, he had this stuff, but I don't know why.

But the answers here, it's somewhere.

By the way you really smell and you look terrible.

Were you up all night watching this stuff?

It wasn't my intentions.

I put these movies in, and I keep,

I've been captivated.

I tried to go to sleep, it just,

it just kept bringing me back.

Okay, well, I should go so you can clean up and sleep.

No, no, look, I like the company.

Makes me,

Makes me happy that I have two sets of eyes watching.

All right, well, if you fall asleep I'm bailing.

Fine.

But energy drinks is what does it.

And um,

that's what,

anyways.

Whose camera is that?

Uh, that's my dads.

Does it still work?

[Ronald] I honestly have no clue.

Oh look, it lights up.

[Ronald] Huh, okay.

Cool, well, I'm gonna go shower

and you can sit here and click these links.

Have you watched them already?

Nah, when I was uploading the VHS tapes and the beta tapes

I got the links and I put it together.

So all ya gotta do is just give it a click

and you're good to go.

Okay.

[Ronald] All right, just sit here and I'll go and shower.

What if I see something I don't want to see?

[Ronald] I don't know.

Okay.

I had to cut in quick, 'cause as I'm reviewing it,

I'm putting it in the pieces and I have to explain it.

I'm still smoking.

I know, it's gonna kill me, right?

Long pauses.

Seems fitting.

Seems fitting for what I'm documenting.

But

I don't know

where this is going.

I haven't even seen the rest of what my brother found.

I do know about those girls 'cause he called me

and he told me.

He said, "Hey there's two hot chicks that live next door."

So if you have kids or whoever's watching, don't,

just don't let 'em watch the rest.

'Cause ya know, I don't know what to expect.

Shut up.

Just,

[Hunter] So, tell me Brian, what do we plan

on seeing here?

In fact, why don't you tell all of our viewers

where we're going?

Well, as you guys know, I have this speculation

and theory of the death clock.

We're on our way to the one place that several

incidences have happened.

This one place is the factor in all of my research.

All videos posted so far has lead up to this one.

Way to plug your own videos buddy.

All I'm saying is, you're making it sound a lot

cooler than it is.

[Child Voice] (whispering) The time is now, right?

Listen, you guys knew what tonight was about.

If you didn't wanna come, you coulda just stayed home

and played Xbox or something.

The fact that what we're saying is getting you mad,

is the reason why we keep giving you hell.

You do realize that, right?

Yeah, I know, but it's fun to see the look

in your faces when I do act upset.

That is the key, is to always act upset.

Hunter, why you so shy right now?

No input from you?

What is this, your gay fantasy of men arguing?

[Hunter] Oh hah hah, Brian.

Real funny.

I almost creamed my pants.

(boys laughing)

This is the place?

Yep, owners contacted me about something going on here.

But this is a new development isn't it?

When has that ever mattered?

The things going on here matches several places

we've checked out already.

Hey Hunter, get the light real quick please?

(light clicking on)

Okay.

You ready Hunter?

All right, let's do this.

[Child Voice] (whispering) It's now time.

(eerie singing)

It's just a rat, come on, let's do this thing.

Hey everyone, tonight we're here at the Silhouette Home

housing development.

Four months into it, two workers disappeared

and yet still others reported strange noises.

A disembodied voice and the feeling of being watched.

But tonight, we're gonna see what the deal is.

How would you feel if it's your time to go.

Join me here on my channel and we'll get to the bottom

of my theory, the death clock.

All right, cut.

[Hunter] Are you sure you don't wanna do that again?

No, I'm good, Goodbye.

[Hunter] All right.

[Ashton] Very spokesperson of you.

You had me going there for a minute, really,

with the missing people.

[Hunter] Ashton, four people really

did go missing in here.

[Ashton] Shut the hell up, really?

[Hunter] Yeah man.

My friend's sister was the one who covered the case.

[Brian] Hey, can you guys come help me out real quick?

Okay, so this first one is supposed to be the main

ingredient on what went on here.

Let's see here, there it is.

Okay, let's see what we got here.

Oh fuck.

Dude!

I thought you packed the infrared gear.

[Blane] I did it.

I mean, I checked it like right before we walked in.

Like literally right before we walked in.

Dude, look, there's fucking nothing here!

[Blane] Umm, okay, that's weird.

I mean,

All right, hang on, follow me.

Hey, have you guys seen...

What the hell?

[Blane] Hey you guys all right?

[Brian] (slowed down speech) you guys doing?

Blane are you getting this?

[Blane] Yeah, I'm not sure what's going on though.

Count down has begun.

- (whispering hiss) Found. - What the fuck?

- Brian what the... - He's dead!

He's fucking dead!

[Blane] What the fuck did you bring us to man?

(door knob rattling)

The fucking door's jammed!

(door knob rattling)

[Brian] Blane?

Blane?

What are you doing Blane?

Blane?

[Whispering Voice] Four.

(body thudding)

[Brian] (gasping) Oh god, what the fuck?

- Parker? - Three.

(body thudding)

[Brian] What the, what the fuck?

(gasps)

Hunter?

What the...

[Hunter And Child Voice] Two.

[Brian] What the fff,

Who are, who are you?

(Brian breathing heavily)

I am death.

The time is now.

One.

(thudding)

What's up everybody?

It's your twisted freak.

(giggling)

I wanna speak today

about sanity in the insane.

(giggles)

They say people like me are insane

because we wear masks,

because we like being twisted and dark.

'Cause we let the voices tell us what they want us to do.

(laughs)

But let me tell you,

we aren't insane.

We have more sanity than most of y'all.

I bet you're wondering why do I think

that there's a bit of sanity inside of me.

It's because I know the truth.

I know the truth of this world.

A truth that y'all are scared to see.

(giggles)

So I'm gonna go to y'all's every day life,

live a perfect normal life.

But there's no such thing as normal.

(laughs)

There's no such thing as sanity.

Everybody is a little insane.

(giggles)

It's just people like me,

we embrace the insanity.

(giggles)

We put on the mask

to release it.

We put on the face paint

to show our true selves.

Under this is nothing.

(laughs)

Just a normal person.

But this,

when I put this on

I release the true me.

(laughs)

I release the twisted inside of me.

You can call us insane,

but the reason why we do this

is because we know how the world works.

We know that it's not all rainbows and sunshine though.

(laughs)

We see the true darkness in this world.

We see the true darkness that's in our government.

(giggles)

We see the true darkness that's everywhere.

That you don't wanna see.

'Cause you're scared.

You're scared that you might be like me.

(giggles)

I say embrace it.

Embrace the insane.

We know the true colors.

We look around and we see

the evil and the corruption.

The chaos and the anarchy that comes everywhere

around you.

And we embrace it and we make it our own.

(laughs)

Get with the program people.

Join the chaos.

(laughs)

(Water running) (rap music)

Trying to.

Uh, all right.

Okay.

Dad, Dad!

(metal clanging)

(plastic shattering)

What the fuck are you doing?

Dude, seriously?

Get the fuck out of here!

Oh my god, oh my god.

Ron!

(shower running) (knocking)

Ron.

Ron?

Ron, I think I just,

What the fuck?

(shower water stops)

Ron.

(distant yelling)

Ron.

Fuck.

(panting breaths)

Ron!

Where are you?

(distant yelling)

Ron?

(yelling)

Ron?

(door handle turning)

Ron!

Ron, what the fuck?

Ron, what are you doing?

Is that your dad?

Ron, Ron, put the ha...

[Ronald] What are you doing here?

[Sister] What the fuck are you doing?

(yelling) (sister screaming)

Oh, oh, got it working!

Got it working!

Finally, only took you what, three hours?

Well, uh, let's see, I got it working so

shut your face.

Whatever.

Have focus and everything, oh yeah, yeah, got it, got it.

All right, ready?

For what?

[Aaron] We're gonna go record.

So why we going to the pit?

Well, it's the cool looking place we got around here

and I kinda wanna get like some really good stuff

on this camera 'cause, it looks all HD and clear and crap.

Gay.

Your mom's gay.

What's wrong Justin?

You cold out here?

Yes, I'm freezing my nips off.

(Aaron laughs) Oh hey Tyler.

[Aaron] Oh it's Tyler.

Fuck you guys.

(Aaron laughs)

[Aaron] What was that?

Lets keep walking.

[Aaron] You think he's still mad at us?

I think so.

[Aaron] It's just one dump in his mailbox.

Hold a grudge much?

Come on dude!

Hey hold up.

Hold my hat.

[Aaron] What?

It's just barbed wire.

I don't wanna cut myself.

[Aaron] Oh my god.

(laughs)

You need some help?

Help me up.

[Aaron] Gay!

(laughing)

I can't believe I got that!

Are you all right?

You're a douche bag.

You're a fucking dick.

(laughing) That was priceless.

I'm sorry, I'm sorry.

No, no, I swear to god, you touch me one more time,

I'm gonna beat you in your sleep with a pillow

with my soul in it!

Ew.

(Aaron breathing hard)

Hey Aaron, need a hand?

[Aaron] Oh, hell no.

[Justin] Gay!

[Aaron] Yeah, real funny.

Dude, I actually really like this camera.

[Aaron] You better, paid $500 for that thing.

Why'd you pay $500?

'Cause I bought it at bithbae

[Justin] Bithbae, why'd you get it there?

That's the only place I could find a good camera.

Why didn't you go to Walmart, they have good Canons there?

Yeah, maybe used.

Walmart!

Hey Aaron.

Aaron!

Can you please not get me while I'm pissing?

[Justin] Why not?

[Aaron] Dude! Justin!

What?

[Aaron] Come look at this.

I was talking.

[Aaron] This is weird.

What kind of artist drew this?

Probably somebody just trying to scare us.

No, no, no.

No dude, I've seen this.

[Aaron] What?

I read about this the other night.

It's this whole crazy thing dude.

There's this whole website right here explaining

everything to do with this.

It explains eight pages including one just like this.

And we so happen to live by that forest for some reason.

[Aaron] Uh, okay.

Apparently all these people who drew these pages

saw him right before they drew it.

[Aaron] Saw who?

He's called the Slenderman.

[Aaron] So apparently there's more than

one of these pages?

Not too sure...

[Aaron] I think we should go.

We should find 'em, maybe we can find the other ones.

Ya know, thing is, let's do it, I'm bored,

got nothing to do.

[Aaron] Yes!

It's dark out here, I can't see crap.

[Justin] Freaking dark, oh my god.

[Aaron] Okay, okay, I'm gonna adjust the flashlight.

Yep, it works.

Ready for this?

Yeah, I'm ready.

[Aaron] All right.

[Justin] All right, um, I think we should

go and look where we found the first page.

[Aaron] Pfft, if we can even find our way out here.

It's so dark.

I can only see the trees that are like up close to me.

[Justin] Hey man, I wanna record.

[Aaron] Okay, here.

Hey, watch out.

(Justin grunts)

(body thudding against the ground)

- Oh god. - Dude, hey.

- Dude, I tripped - Right over here.

[Justin] Oh my god, it, come here, Aaron!

Look at this.

(twigs snapping)

[Aaron] Leave me alone.

[Justin] Dude, we found another page!

[Aaron] Sweet!

[Justin] You need to come look at this.

Found the tree.

[Aaron] That's the same tree we found the page on, heh!

I'm a celebrity.

[Justin] Oh yeah.

[Aaron] All right, ah.

[Justin] Oh shit!

[Aaron] What?

[Justin] Ho...

[Aaron] Fuck you talking about?

[Justin] I swear to god it was right here.

[Aaron] What dude, what is?

[Justin] Slenderman.

[Aaron] Slender? Bullcrap!

- I swear to... - You're full of crap!

[Justin] I swear to god dude.

[Aaron] Where's my camera?

[Justin] It's right there.

[Aaron] Get it!

Leave my camera on the ground!

[Justin] I'm sorry, I swear I saw him.

[Aaron] Dude, it's the woods.

You're seriously hallucinating.

[Justin] I swear to god.

[Aaron] Just calm down.

You know how many animals there are in this forest?

[Justin] A lot?

[Aaron] Yeah.

Gimme the camera.

You're too scared right now.

[Justin] Oh my god dude.

[Aaron] What?

[Justin] Look, look down, right there.

[Aaron] Oh dude, it's another page.

What does it say?

[Justin] Always watches no eyes.

[Aaron] What? Slenderman?

[Justin] I guess so.

It's confusing.

Found the third page, yeah!

Yeah!

[Aaron] Ow, oh dude, that light is bright.

Hey, you done scoping out the area?

[Justin] Oh!

[Aaron] What?

It's a page.

[Aaron] Another one?

What does this one say?

[Justin] No, no, no, no, no...

(yelling grunt)

What the crap!

What was that?

(both boys yelling)

- Oh god! - Run dude!

[Aaron] Oh crap, no, no, no, no.

I don't know where to go.

Justin!

(breathing hard)

Dude, come on!

(crying)

Please be okay, dude.

What the hell?

No, no, no, no, no, no.

Screw you!

He's okay.

He's just fine.

He can find his way home.

He's gonna be okay.

Oh my god.

I'm so sick of this game!

(Aaron grunting and screaming)

(old projector clicking)

What's up everybody?

It's the twisted freak.

(giggles)

Now, this ain't a long video.

I just want to let each and every one of my freaks

out there know

that we got a lot of new stuff

fixin' to happen

on the page.

A lot of changes

that you're gonna like.

(giggles)

The first new change is the name.

It's fixin' to be changed to Southern Madness.

(giggles)

Why?

Well, I'm southern born and bred,

and I'm out of my mind.

(laughs)

And another thing.

I'm gonna love this.

You're fixin' to have a new friend on the page.

(laughs)

The only good thing is, his ass don't talk too much.

(laughs)

So I'll still be the one that talks a lot.

(laughs)

But get ready.

'Cause we're fixin' to have more and more twisted fun.

Coming soon.

(laughs)

Ron, just calm down all right?

Just put the hammer down and we can talk about this.

Just, Ron, listen to me.

Ron!

[Ronald] I'm not Ron!

Henry!

[Ronald] Shut up!

Shut up!

(sister screaming) (wet thudding)

(Ronald yelling wordlessly)

(Ronald grunting loudly)

Smash the tape!

(Ronald breathing heavily)

(Ronald grunting)

Why?

You had to?

I, wha...

(growls and grunts)

So I have to clean up your mess every fucking time.

(sniffling and breathing heavily)

I'm not him.

I'm not him.

I didn't...

I didn't kill my dad.

Yes you did.

Yes you did.

No, I didn't.

Get out of my head.

Didn't kill my dad.

I didn't kill my...

(grunts)

(laughs)

You see what happens here?

There's a time when we come together

and we just gather around the...

But no we don't, no we don't, no we don't.

Yes, we do.

We see what they don't know about you

is that you can't be controlled.

No one would...

Stop it!

Stop it!

(breathing heavily)

Why?

Why is this,

Why is this happening?

Why is this happening to me?

I didn't, don't remember killing.

I've been in England for the past fucking two years.

No, no, you've been out...

No!

I've been in England, studying at the missionary place

because that's what Dad wanted.

No, you weren't, you were...

Yes I was.

No you weren't.

Yes I was. No you

weren't.

(laughs)

(sniffles)

I guess we all go a little crazy sometimes.

Sometimes we just have to accept it.

What do you expect?

And will you accept who you are?

(laughs maniacally)

(coughs)

(yells)

Okay listen, Uncle Saul, I hope this makes it to you

in time, okay?

I've just come across a collection of videos

of Henry that I'm uploading to you right now.

Listen, there are more Betamaxes out there.

I couldn't get to all of them in time,

but each one has this strange footage.

You'll understand more when I send this to you, okay?

Someone from the government just tried

to get in contact with me.

And I have a great feeling that they're

on their way right now.

Their interest, their interest concerns me.

They're really determined to stop the world

from seeing these tapes or even having them released.

With all the powers that be, I hope these files

can make it to you...

They're here.

Good luck Uncle, good luck.
