This episode of Five Minute Frights istitled Cattle Ranch Mysteries Part One.
First and foremost, I'm a highlyeducated professional who is highly scientifically minded,

(00:50):
and I'm not the kind of personwho is easy to convince. Also,
I'm an avid outdoorsman who spent morethan forty years in these woods hunting deer,
turkey, hog than any other wildlifethat has a season. I debated
making this report for some time,but ultimately decided to proceed with the idea
that perhaps my report may be akey piece of a larger puzzle. In

(01:12):
twenty sixteen, my wife and Ipurchased two acres off the beaten Path,
bordering a larger seven hundred acre cattleranch. There are a few homes in
our area, all of which siton multiple acres. We don't live in
boondocks, and there are farms aroundus. The first incident slash sighting occurred

(01:33):
in February of twenty seventeen while buildingour home. I was living in an
RV on our land. In theprevious nights, my propane heater had run
out of gas, leaving me freezingcold. One evening, around two AM,
I was awake waiting to hear thedistinct noise of my heater kicking on.

(01:55):
When that happens, the process wouldshoot some kind of steam or exhaust
out of pipe next to the doorin the bedroom where I was sleeping Sitting
in the dark, I heard thethermostat make its clicking noise, instantly followed
by the sound of my heater startingup. As soon as I heard the
heater activate, the sound of theexhaust exiting the pipe was clearly heard.

(02:19):
At that moment, something very largehit or push the side of the twenty
nine foot camper, rocking the entirestructure to the point that items fell off
my dresser. I had a ninemillimeter in a flashlight in my room.
It took me a few minutes togather myself, but I finally opened my
door with my gun and light andbegan to search around my camper. I

(02:44):
looked all around my camper but foundno indication of anybody. My property is
heavily wooded and located on a deadend gravel road. The ground was frozen
solid from the cold, so Icouldn't make out any footprints. As I
searched around the camper, I noticeda light behind my camper, hovering about

(03:06):
ten feet off the ground. Ilooked behind me to see if one of
my neighbors was driving or walking witha light, but no one was out.
I turned back around and watched thislight make its way directly away from
me and drift on a straight lineoff my property and onto the seven hundred
acre farm. As it moved throughthe trees, I could clearly see branches

(03:30):
and trees begin to obscure my viewof the light, but nothing ever actually
moved. After several seconds, thelight drifted off the point I could no
longer see it. To be continuedSubmitted by Josh from Missouri. This has
