Tommy knocker that appeared inside her home to nights in

Speaker 1 (03:09):
Hello Lee, Welcome to the podcast. Hi, how are you
I'm awesome. It was great to have you with us
today and your join us from South Carolina.

Speaker 7 (03:20):
I am, and thank you for having me.

Speaker 1 (03:23):
You're more than welcome. Now, VI, you have some experiences
to share with us. Would you like to start at
the beginning, please, ma'am.

Speaker 7 (03:29):
Absolutely so.

Speaker 4 (03:32):
The first incident that I had, I guess you could
call it an incident, was back in twenty twenty two.
I was living in a home in here in South Carolina,
and I started noticing some weird things happening at night
because I lived by myself and I had three cats
and they had their own bedrooms, and I would notice

(03:54):
at night. I worked second shift, so when I would
come in from work, there would be nights when it
would sound like someone was in their room talking to them,
but when I would go in the room, there was
nothing there.

Speaker 7 (04:06):
And as time went on.

Speaker 4 (04:08):
I started hearing what would sound like something was running
down my hallway. It almost sounded like little footsteps just
running down the hallway. Sometimes it would sound like a
ball bouncing down the hall and it would hit my
door and I would open the door.

Speaker 7 (04:21):
Nothing was there.

Speaker 4 (04:22):
I could hear giggling, and just you know, thought maybe
it was just I was nervous because I was by myself.
And then one night I had gotten off of work
and I went and picked a friend up and I
was taking him somewhere, and I had put cameras up
in my house because I also in the back of

(04:43):
my mind was like, well, maybe someone is breaking in
my house. So I had the camera. I had a
camera in my room and my boyfriend at the time,
he had came over and he had a key to
my house and he went in and got in the
bed and was asleep. I had my camera pulled up
on my phone and it was on my dash and

(05:03):
I'm going down the road and all of a sudden,
my friend starts yelling what is that?

Speaker 8 (05:08):
What is that?

Speaker 4 (05:10):
And I'm thinking something's about to run out in front
of me and you know, on the road. So I
hit the brake and I said what And I'm looking
and I don't see nothing. He's like, what is that
on your camera? So when I looked at my camera,
my door, my bedroom door had, you know, was slightly

(05:30):
cracked open. I'm just sitting there watching and it was
like this little person and what I'm assuming was a
Tommy knocker. It could have been a troll.

Speaker 7 (05:41):
I really don't know.

Speaker 4 (05:42):
All I know is it was short, it had like
kind of like white stringy hair, and it peeped its
head around the door and was looking in my room.
And the next thing we've seen was these fingers come
around the door and grab the door, and they were
very long, skinny fingers with any nails, and it was

(06:02):
just like looking but it wasn't like it was trying
to cause any kind of harm. It was almost like
it was curious. It was just you know, seeing what
was going on. And so we both were just kind
of sitting there looking at the camera kind of freaked
out because I was like, that explains what I've been
hearing in.

Speaker 7 (06:20):
My house at night. And so, you know, it stood up.

Speaker 4 (06:24):
You could see it in the camera. It stood up,
and it took off running back down the hallway, and
it probably wasn't but three feet tall.

Speaker 7 (06:31):
It was very short.

Speaker 4 (06:33):
And so that was the first episode that I had.
And then it was probably about a year later I
had started. The friend that was with me in the
car that night had introduced me to some people, and
I did not know at the time they.

Speaker 7 (06:50):
Were actually part of the occult.

Speaker 4 (06:52):
They practiced black magic, and they were also into Satanism.
They never tried to push anything on me, but you know,
when I was around them, some really strange occurrences would happen.
I know, they had an altar up on the heel
in the woods at their house and they would go

(07:12):
up there and perform rituals and things like that. And
when I started going over to their house more, a
lot of weird things would start happening. And it was
what I call either spirits or shadows or something you
could see literally just moving in the yard. So I

(07:33):
kind of figured that it was something demonic that they
had conjured up or something, and kind of started, you know,
not going around them as much.

Speaker 7 (07:46):
I had.

Speaker 4 (07:47):
Actually during that time, I had moved out of the
house that I had been living in and ended up
moving in with a friend, and I was saying with
them in some really range occurrences started happening, and my
first thought was that it had something to do with,
you know, what I was dealing with as far as

(08:08):
the occult ties. You know, and I had practiced witchcraft
at one time, but it was I did what they
called white magic.

Speaker 7 (08:15):
I never practiced in the dark magic side of things.

Speaker 4 (08:19):
I had had two friends come over to the new
house that I had moved into with my friend. I
was explaining to them things that have been going on,
and one of them he said, there's something in here,
and I can feel it. We were all standing there
and we heard something hit the door. He just speaks
up and he said, what are you doing here? You

(08:40):
could hear this female voice and it sounded very evil
and very demonic, and it said it was there Zach.

Speaker 7 (08:46):
Words was I'm here to kill her? And he said
here to kill her? Who?

Speaker 4 (08:51):
And she said her, I said me, and it said yes,
And so he proceeded to ask it why and she
said because I was getting in the way. Not sure
what that meant, but that's what it told us. So
some strange things started happening there. I would go to
bed and go to sleep, and I would wake up

(09:12):
the next day and I would have what looked like
needle marks on the tops of my feet. But one
time I woke up and I had these scratch marks
on the on my back, like right above my butt area,
and it was like three claws came down and they
were raised higher than normal scratches are, and they were

(09:36):
on fire. They were burning and like most scratches, you know,
the burn and the swelling will go down within you
know a little while. Well, these lasted for like eight
to ten hours and they burned the whole time. But
what was so weird was the next day they were

(09:56):
completely gone, no sign of them. So it was like,
wasn't sure what was going on, And so I ended
up setting up a camera in my bedroom and I
would notice when I would leave, I would watch my
cats because my cats stayed in my bedroom with me,
and so I would be watching them on camera. It

(10:17):
was almost as if something was in the room with them,
because they would you would see them watching something. And
then I had one he was super lovable and he
would run to something and it would look like he
was eating something and there was no food in the room.
But when I would get home, there would be like
crumbs in the room. Someone had been in there feeding them,

(10:40):
but there was no one there. The camera never picked
anyone up or anything. And then the cats started getting sick.
And at that time I only had two cats. Because
when I was actually living in the house that I
had described before, one of my cats passed away and
I don't know if it had something to do with

(11:01):
what was going on in that house or if it
was just due to old age, because he was old.
But the other two cats that I had, they started
getting to wear. It was almost like at times they
would be in a trance and they would just be
like staring out in the space, and they started acting
like they were getting sick a lot. So I ended
up moving them to another friend's house to get them

(11:24):
out of there because I didn't know what exactly I
was dealing with. I felt like I was dealing with
something very demonic after the female voice saying that it
was there to kill me. And so there was a
night the person that I was living with was laying
in their bed and I was standing at the bedroom
door talking to them, and behind me was the bathroom,
and the bathroom light was on. As I'm talking to them,

(11:47):
I see the wall in front of me, the light
shining on that wall, and it looks like something's walking
up behind me. So I turn around real quick and
there's nothing there. And when I turned back around to
speak to them, because they were laying facing the wall
as I was talking to them, I start seeing what

(12:08):
looks like shadows, you know, of a person, and there
was five or six of them, and they were right
there by the person in the bed, and one was
actually crawling up onto the bed. So I'm like, okay,
you know, not knowing like how to respond to this,

(12:29):
I got them up and I was like, go lay
on the couch, you know, and so they did. And
then when they would be at work, I would be
at home by myself at night, and I started hearing
the footsteps again in the house like I did in
the previous house, but it was like curious little footsteps,
you know, and like curiosity. Also, whenever the female voice

(12:52):
had said what it was going to say, I probably
shouldn't have challenged it, but I kind of did. I
told it that it was not going to harm me,
not going to let it, and I was not scared
of it. And so that was kind of like when
things had, you know, started kind of intensifying with like
the scratches and the marks on the tops of my
feet and things like that. I would have scratches on
my neck as well. It was almost like something was

(13:13):
attacking me in my sleep. And then there would be
times when I would lose like five or six hours.
I would be wide awake, and then next thing I
knew I was waking up like five or six hours later,
and I didn't remember what had happened, couldn't tell you anything,
and would be in the same spot and not trying
to be too personal. But one of the times, I

(13:35):
was actually using the restroom and just completely went out
and was out for about five hours and woke up
in the same exact position and had no memory of
what had happened, and so I just blamed it on
extreme exhaustion.

Speaker 7 (13:49):
So the person that I was.

Speaker 4 (13:51):
Staying with, they were laying on the couch one night,
weird things, you know, that was happening.

Speaker 7 (13:57):
I started recording all the time.

Speaker 4 (13:59):
I would have my camera out and I would constantly
be recording with my cell phone, trying to catch something
because my thang was, I can't just go and tell
people about what I'm seeing because they're gonna say I'm
crazy or that I'm hallucinating, or that there's something wrong.
So I was like, I've got to catch this stuff
on camera in order for anybody to believe what I'm saying.

(14:21):
So I was filming one night and something caught my attention.
The person was laying on the couch and they were
asleep and like their arm. You know, their arm was
very hairy because it's a guy, from their elbow down
to their wrist. So I'm looking and I'm like, wait
a minute, their arm doesn't look right. When I started

(14:44):
snapping pictures and recording, I ended up right when it
got down to where the wrist is at the whole
hand change. Now, these this person kept their nails very
very short, and it was like long stringy fingers with
twenty nails.

Speaker 7 (15:00):
And I'm like, that is not their hand.

Speaker 4 (15:02):
And then I snapped another picture, and when I did,
their hand literally looked like a serpent. You could see
the two nostrils and the two eyes. I had this
on my camera and I was able to show several people,
and of course people started believing what I was trying
to explain to them because I had the actual footage.

Speaker 7 (15:24):
And there was another episode. I was at home one day.

Speaker 4 (15:28):
A lot of times when I would try to catch
these things on camera, it was like it knew that
I was trying to, so nothing would happen. So I
was literally in my bedroom one day and I took
my cell phone and I turned it upside down to
where it would film from under the door. The person
that I was living with walked in the door. When

(15:48):
they walked in the door, it was them. By the
time they made it to the love seat, it looked
like a female and she had a short skirt on.
She had long black care and it was curly. And
then it changed back into the person that I was
living with. And they continued to walk through the house,
and right in the middle of the living room they vanished.

(16:11):
And there was nothing that they could have walked behind
or any anything that could have blocked them from the camera.
You could literally see them fade away. And I was
just my mind was blown. And they walked back outside
because they were getting groceries out of their car. When
they come back in, I walked out there and I said,

(16:32):
look at this.

Speaker 7 (16:33):
I said, what is this? What did you just do?
How did you do that? And there is that worse
to me was that was not me. I didn't do that.
That is not me.

Speaker 4 (16:44):
And I said, well, it sure looks like you when
you walked in the door, and then it changed into
a female and then changed back into you and then
vanished as it walked through the house. And they had
a dog, and at night when they would be at work,
sometimes I would let the dog in, and the dog
would never go past the kitchen. She would get to
the kitchen and she would start freaking out, looking towards

(17:07):
the back of the house.

Speaker 7 (17:08):
You couldn't push her into the kitchen. She would refuse
to go to the kitchen.

Speaker 4 (17:13):
So, and I know that animals are able to see
things that sometimes we can't, so I knew right then
something was definitely going on. And then I had two
more instances at that house with the person I was
living with.

Speaker 7 (17:30):
Another one was they were laying on the couch.

Speaker 4 (17:32):
It was during the day, we were watching TV, and
I'm recording because I hear something that sounds like something
is moving around in the house, and I know it's
not me, and I know it's not them. My cats
were not there anymore. I just happened to film them,
and as I did, their eyes turned from their natural

(17:52):
color to black and then a split second back to
their natural color, and I'd actually caught it on camera.
I showed them the VI and they again they said
that it's not me. So I knew I was dealing
with something. And I had another episode. I was filming
one night. It was when my cats were still there.
My camera in my room picked up two entities. They

(18:15):
looked like black shadows. One was tall and one was short,
and they ran by my camera at a very fast speed.
And what was behind my camera was a wall, and
you know, had it been a person, they would have
hit the wall and fell backwards or whatever, but whatever
this was ran into the wall. And then one night

(18:36):
I was there and the person was on the couch
to sleep again. I'm recording because I'm hearing things, and
so I start recording and I see what looks like
a female. It's the outline of a female, but you
could see through it and it almost looked like water,
like it was made of water, and it kneels down

(18:57):
beside the person sleeping. Then I start walking over to it.
Well when I do, it disappears. But in the area
that it was at the floor, the carpet was soaked
like you had poured a whole pitcher of water on
the floor, and there was nothing around that area that
could have been spilled or anything that would cause that.

Speaker 7 (19:20):
So I ended up.

Speaker 4 (19:23):
Moving out of there, and then I moved back home,
which is North Carolina, and I had moved in with
my parents, and my mom she's always had the ability
to be able to see things as well like I've
been able to. And she tells me, she says, you know,

(19:47):
there's something out there walking around in the yard. And
they live on four and a half acres of land.
It's very wooded, it's very private, and she said, it
looks like a man out there walking around in the yard.
And so, you know, I would get my dad up
or I would go out myself and check it out,
get out there, and there was nothing out there. And

(20:08):
then one night, it was about three o'clock in the morning,
I went outside. I see these two lights and I
thought at first that maybe it was like a four
wheeler or something like that, because it was sitting All
of their property has a fence around it, and it's
sitting on the other side of the fence, and it's
up on a ridge and it's like, you know, shining

(20:31):
kind of down into their yard.

Speaker 7 (20:33):
But I hear no sound. I can hear something out
in the yard what looked like a person walk you know,
walking through.

Speaker 4 (20:43):
Well, when I get over to where it was, there
was nothing there. So the next day I'm telling my
dad about it, and I'm like, you need to go
out and check the fence, because they would have had
to have climbed the fence to get over onto the
other side into the yard. So he said, well, come on,
we'll walk out there. So we go out there and
there's no sign, no sign of anything. There's nothing. There's

(21:06):
no wheel tracks, and the property that whatever these lights
were sitting on, there's no one that lives there. It's
just an old, abandoned wooded lot. I told my dad,
I said.

Speaker 7 (21:20):
Well, I know what I seen.

Speaker 4 (21:22):
So, like I said, there was no tire tracks, there
was no footsteps, there was no sign of anybody ever
being there.

Speaker 7 (21:30):
And we started having an issue. My mom and dad.

Speaker 4 (21:32):
They have four small dogs that they keep inside and
they have a doggy door so they can come and
go as they please. These dogs used to like you
could drop a pen and they would start barking. And
we started noticing that they would go outside at night,
between like maybe nine and eleven, they would go outside,

(21:54):
and they would be outside for a while. They might
would bark when they would first go out, and then
they would just go silent, and then a while later
they would come in and they would go straight to
the water bowl and just start drinking water. And I mean,
they would drink and drink, and it was a huge
water bowl and they would almost empty it. They would
be drinking so much. And then they would all go

(22:14):
lay down and go to sleep. And these dogs would
sleep for eight to twelve hours, which is very unusual
for most dogs to do. They wouldn't get up at
all to go to the bathroom, to get more water,
to eat, nothing, and they were never.

Speaker 1 (22:29):
Like that before.

Speaker 4 (22:30):
So, you know, we continued to see things and hear things,
and there would be times when I would look out
the window or I would be outside in the yard
and you could see very large tree branches and the
trees just start shaking fiercely, almost like a severe storm

(22:52):
was coming through and the wind was blowing, but there
was no wind, so not sure what that was, but
it was some kind of a phenomena that was going on.
So I ended up I stayed there for about six
months and then I left and I came back to
South Carolina. So when I came back to South Carolina,

(23:12):
I was staying at a hotel. A friend of mine
was with me one night. At the time, I had
been having some problems. My car had been broken into,
so I had a camera that I kept with me,
and I would whenever I would stay somewhere like that,
I would turn the camera on and have it facing
my car, just to make sure if anybody had broken
my car, this time I could catch who it was.

(23:33):
So I'm sitting there and my phone goes off to
let me know that the camera had picked something up.
So when I go back and I look at the footage,
it shows you can see the whole parking lot and
where my car is at. You can see this dark,
shadowy figure walk right behind my car and up the

(23:56):
side and just disappear. My friend and I are both
watching this, like what is going on?

Speaker 7 (24:01):
What is that? And I said, I don't know.

Speaker 4 (24:03):
They said it's not a person because you could see
the whole parking lot and it literally appeared out of nowhere.
You could not see anybody walk into the parking lot.
It just like it appeared out of thin air. So
we're just kind of like my exact words was, this
seems to be a regular thing with me. All kinds
of things keep happening and I cannot explain any of them.

(24:26):
I don't know why these things are happening. And so
I ended up moving and I got my own place again,
and it was a mobile home and so when I
move in, it was you know, I had a real
wooded backyard, and it was out in the country and

(24:46):
it was very very dark. When I first went and
looked at the place, I noticed it was a female
that had lived there before me, and she had cameras
inside of the house and outside of the house. She
had cameras in the woods as the camera's facing the woodline.
So it probably should have been a red flag that
something wasn't normal, you know. So I'm sitting at home

(25:09):
one night and i start hearing something outside my living
room window, and I'm thinking, you know, maybe because it
was like a small little mobile home park, and so
I'm like, maybe it's just the neighbors or something. But
as time goes on, some weird things start happening. It
was almost like something was in my house with me.

(25:31):
I you know, had the back door fixed where nothing
could get in, and I had the windows fixed and
where nothing could get in. The windows at the front
door fixed at night to where nothing could get in
the front door. So I'm like, there's no way something
can be in here with me because there's no way
it could get in. So it was actually September twenty
second of last year. I was there and it was

(25:54):
three something in the afternoon. It was a Sunday afternoon.
I started feeling extremely exhausted, so I decided to lay
down and take a nap. And I had an old
cell phone at the time that I was running a
camera app on and using it as like a security camera,
and I had mounted it in my kitchen window facing

(26:14):
my backyard because there was an old building out there
and it's at night. I could look out there and
it would almost look like a light inside of the building,
and there was no power ran to it or anything
like that, and the door was nailed on the outside
to where no one could get in. So I'm sitting there,
I say, okay, I'm going to take a nap, so

(26:35):
I lay down. When I wake up three hours later,
something doesn't feel right. My shoulder was hurting really bad,
and I just something didn't feel normal. So I went
to the kitchen and I look and it looked like
my camera the phone had been moved, so I ended
up I had it connected to my other cell phone.

(26:57):
So I go back and I'm looking at the footage
while I'm asleep over my TV and I still have
that footage. I still have the video over my TV.
You can hear a man say, I'm going to take you.
Whatever it was that was in my house with me
that day, had actually gotten my camera out of the

(27:19):
kitchen window and was recording me from my waist down
to my knees.

Speaker 7 (27:24):
And I had a.

Speaker 4 (27:25):
Large bruise on my left shoulder that looked like a
man's thumbprint, like a large thumbprint, but it was almost
in the shape of a heart, and I have pictures
of that as well. Strange things was really starting to
happen a lot on a daily basis there. Every night,
it was like when the sun would go down, strange

(27:47):
things would start happening. And I actually had called law
enforcement out there a few times, and they used their
infrared camera to you know, because you could see a
trail from the woods up to my window and see
where's something had been walking through the grass, but it
didn't look like footsteps, but something was laying the grass down.
So one night, heard something outside and my camera is recording,

(28:10):
of course, and I called nine to one one and
as the officers are coming in, they're coming down the
drive and as they come around the curve, their headlights
shined into the backyard and what I seen on the
camera it.

Speaker 7 (28:26):
Absolutely terrified me.

Speaker 4 (28:28):
It looked human in form, but it had gray skin
and it was almost like its skin was hanging off,
like you could see the bones under the skin. There
was multiple ones, and they had some of them didn't
have any hair, and then some of them had like
very thin, whitish looking hair. But they didn't stand on

(28:52):
two feet and walk. They crawled on. It's like they
were using their feet and their hands and talking that way.
And they would come out of the woodline just to
right before where the light would pick them up, and
they wouldn't come into the light. And when I went
back and played the footage, and I even played it

(29:14):
for the officers, you could hear when the officers headlights
come around and hit them. You can hear on my
camera something saying go away. So I explained this to
the officers, you know, and the officer looks at me
and tells me, I know what you're going through. I understand,

(29:35):
and my best advice to you is to get out
of the country, move into the city, and get a place,
preferably on the second or third floor, not the first floor.
Get out of the country, I said, okay, he said,
The things that I have seen at night out here,

(29:57):
he said, very few people know, because very few people
have I ever told, he said, because they would probably
think I was losing my mind. He said, But the
things I have seen are not human. I don't know
what they are. I don't know if they're dangerous, if
they're a threat, I don't know what their their intentions are,
he said. But you, being a female by yourself, you

(30:19):
don't need to live out here. So when he told
me that, I said, okay, it's time for me to go.
It's time for me to leave, because I would I
would leave. And there was also a night where I'm
looking out my kitchen window and I see these things
and that it looked like human form shadows you couldn't

(30:42):
see through them. They were dark black, and what looked
like white lights or orbs in the center of their face.

Speaker 7 (30:52):
So I knew it wasn't human. I don't know if
what I was dealing.

Speaker 4 (30:56):
With out there was cryptid or what I would hear
growling outside of my house. And there was times when
I would see what would look like eyes looking back
at me, almost like green glowing eyes in the woods.
And it was whatever it was was standing on two
feet and it was human height or a little bit taller.

(31:20):
It would just they would just watch me, and sometimes
there would be multiple eyes watching me. It was definitely
not an animal. It was not a deer like I said.
It was standing on two feet and it was too tall.
When that all of that happened, and I was hearing
things when I was not home, my camera would be
recording and I was hearing things inside of my house.

(31:40):
I would come home and things had been moved around.
I would purposely leave, like my bathroom shelf messed up
before I would leave to like go to work and stuff,
and I would come home and it would be perfectly organized.
And at first I really thought, well, maybe I just
maybe someone is stalking me, you know, maybe maybe I'm
being stalked. But then when I seen whatever it was

(32:02):
on my camera, and then I was seeing the things
that had the large lights, large round lights in the
center of its face, I knew that I was dealing
with something.

Speaker 7 (32:16):
Way beyond a stalker.

Speaker 8 (32:26):
You don't always know you're in a cult. Not at first,
it feels like truth, like purpose like home. Then the
rules change, the world gets smaller, and obedience becomes survival.
Hidden Cults is the podcast that takes you inside the
world's most disturbing belief systems. From the mass suicide of
Heaven's Gate to the gas attacks of om Shinrikio to

(32:47):
the fiery siege in Waco, Texas. We follow the rise,
the ruin, and the survivors left behind.

Speaker 1 (32:53):
But the danger isn't over.

Speaker 8 (32:55):
We tracked cults still active in cities, villages, and online
spaces around the world, spanning continence, languages.

Speaker 1 (33:01):
And belief systems. You'll hear real.

Speaker 8 (33:04):
Stories from those who escaped, and if you've lived through
something like this, we want to hear from you too.
Hidden Cults new episodes every week wherever you get your podcasts.

Speaker 4 (33:22):
So I ended up moving and I moved into a
motel on the other side of town because I was like, Okay,
well i'll move in here and i'll stay and there's
lots of cameras and there's always people around.

Speaker 7 (33:33):
So nothing's going to mess with me. Of course that's
not what happened.

Speaker 4 (33:37):
So I moved in and I started staying there, and
the first light two weeks I was there, everything seemed good,
had no problems. I had my camera that I would
keep on my car, you know, I put it up
in the window and so I could film my car
because I had been thinking that some you know, that
someone might break in my car again.

Speaker 7 (33:57):
My camera would go off and I would look.

Speaker 4 (34:00):
I would see what would look like. The only way
I can describe it is the beast that is in
the Never Ending Story. That's what it looked like out
in the woods. And it was just kind of laying
there and what looked like a man sitting beside it
with long, black, curly hair. And after thinking back, I

(34:23):
was like, well, you know, it kind of looks like
what I had seen at the person's house that I
had lived with, you know, when it transformed from that
person into you know, what I thought was a female.

Speaker 7 (34:33):
And every night it was there.

Speaker 4 (34:36):
Never had any problems or anything as far as like
anything like that messing with me. But I would notice
because I worked third shift at that time, when I
would come in at five o'clock in the morning, I
couldn't see these things with the naked eye, a lot
of these things, but the camera would see it. So
I would come in and I could just like the

(34:57):
hair on the back of my neck would stand up
as soon as I would get out of my car.
And it was around the motel I lived and was very,
very wooded.

Speaker 7 (35:05):
It was out.

Speaker 4 (35:06):
It was at the end of a road, nothing but
woods around it, and I would just feel like something
was in the woods watching me as I would walk
because I'd have to go get the key and then
I'd have to go back to my room. It was
like something was walking in the woods with me, oh,
you know, along beside me, and then I would go
back to my room and I could hear it walking

(35:29):
down that way. Whatever it was, it was heavy. At times,
I would see what looked like the two glowing eyes.
And there was some nights I would hear what would
sound like a growl and it was almost like a pant,
like a panting and a growling, like whatever it was
was excited and it was panting and it was kind
of like letting out this like little growl. Of course,

(35:52):
it would kind of freak me out because I was
by myself and I'm like, you know, the owners were sleeping,
so I'm like, oh, gosh, what you know, because they
would leave the key for me because they knew I
was going to be coming in, so I wouldn't wake
them up, and I'm just like, oh gosh. So I
would get in my room and then I wouldn't have
any problems, except for sometimes I would hear what would

(36:12):
sound like something would just kind of like hit my door.
And then it would also sound like at times like
something was on the roof of the motel walking around,
and it would even sound like the roof was kind
of crackling as so I'm assuming whatever it was was
very heavy because it was putting a lot of weight down.
That had actually happened a couple of times when I

(36:34):
lived in the mobile home, but it wasn't that frequent.
But at the motel it started getting to where it
was happening every single night. I'm watching my camera and
I'm you know, I'm not seeing anything on the camera
except for what I described about looking like the creature
from the Never Ending Story. Every night they would it

(36:55):
would just sit out there, you know, right there at
the woodline. There was a few nights like I would
pick something up. It looked like it was up in
the tree and it looked like the eyes glowing, but
I just passed that office. Maybe it was an owl
or something like that. The owners of the motel had
actually they were having their whole parking lot repaved, so

(37:15):
when they did where I would always see the creature
that I was talking about from the never ending story
and what looked like the man sitting there. They had
actually pushed dirt and stuff up on that area and
covered that area, so I didn't see anything then, you know,
after that for a while. And then I went to

(37:38):
work one day and I come home and seemed like
stuff had been moved in my room. So I'm like,
you know, and I had a camera inside my room
as well, because I wanted a camera watching me when
I slipt because of the things I had been through,
because you know, and I would pick up a lot
of orbs and like auras and stuff like that on
my camera, especially at night when i'd be slept. At first,

(38:00):
I thought it was maybe just like a fly or something,
but it started progressing. I go back and I listen
to my camera, you know, audio, and the same voice
that had told me that it was going to take
me the first time, I hear it again, and I'm
in a totally different location on the other side of town,
and it says, I told you I was going to

(38:22):
take you. I didn't never hear it again. I haven't
ever heard it again, which I no longer use cameras,
but I do need to set a camera up in
my room, I guess to see if I do pick
it up again. And there was an instant Also, there
was one night so someone had told me something. They
had went out of town, and they had told me
something about when they were going to be back, and

(38:42):
the last I spoke to them, they were driving, and
then I didn't hear from them for like three hours.
So I'm sitting in my house, you know, or where
I'm staying at, and I'm like, so you said three
hours ago that you were driving, and it's only an
hour and a half drive, so you should be home
by now. You can hear a man's voice, and I
also have the video in the audio for that too

(39:05):
saved as well. You can hear a man's voice on
my camera saying that's not what happened. So something's been
trying to communicate with me, but unfortunately I'm unable to
normally hear it with my own ears, but my audio
on my cameras pick it up at the motel. Like
I said, I didn't hear that anymore. And then one

(39:27):
night I'm sitting and watching my camera and it was
really foggy outside. Something catches my eye over to the
right in the parking lot and it literally looked like
a man formed out of the fog and he was
standing there and he was smoking a cigarette and everything,

(39:47):
and he hung out there for twenty five thirty minutes maybe,
and then just disappeared. It's like the fog. Literally as
the fog started clearing, he vanished. And I would notice,
like where they had pushed the dirt back to do
the parking lot, they had like the caution tape up,
but they had it, they had like a long strand

(40:08):
of it, and then there was little strands hanging down.
And I would be watching my camera at night and
there's no wind blowing, and you could see the strands
that were hanging down. It was like something would tug
one and then it would quit moving, and then it
would tug the next one and it would quit moving,
and it would do that back and forth. They didn't

(40:29):
all move, it just the same time. And then sometimes
it was almost like something had walked by or ran
by the created a draft and you would see them
kind of moving or whatever. But like I said, there
was never any wind, so I felt that was kind
of weird. There was a day when I was there,
I heard something outside, looked at my camera, didn't see

(40:51):
anything right away. I sat there and watched it for
probably about fifteen or twenty minutes. I noticed in my
car and my passenger seat this figure forms, and it
actually looked like someone that I recognized. And then suddenly
where their chest area was now this person was deceased
where their chest area was and as far as I know,

(41:14):
I still have the video of this too.

Speaker 7 (41:16):
It looked like a.

Speaker 4 (41:16):
Little small gold, solid gold angel comes out of the
chest area and floated across the front of my car,
inside my car and got to the driver's side window
and disappeared. And I had just recently started my spiritual
journey when that happened.

Speaker 7 (41:35):
I truly feel like that was an angel.

Speaker 4 (41:37):
I don't know if that's tied into the other things
that had been going on or happening or anything like that,
but it makes me curious. So I ended up staying
at that place for probably I would say about eight months.

Speaker 7 (41:56):
I stayed there.

Speaker 4 (41:57):
Then I moved completely out of that county, moved to
a totally different county, which is where I'm at now,
and everything was good. And then one night went to work,
got off work and was taking my coworker home and
I dropped her off. And after I dropped her off,
I was coming around the curve and there was like this.

(42:19):
It looked like a woman and she was solid white
and walked almost right in front of my car. So
I slam on brakes, thinking I'm about to hit someone,
and it disappeared as it got to my door. So
I don't know exactly what that entity was. But you know,
since i've been here, I've been running into like the

(42:43):
things that I was telling you about, as far as
hearing on the roof. Now I live upstairs. I'm in
an apartment and I live upstairs. Been here since April
and everything's been fine. And then, I don't know, probably
about two months ago, started getting that feeling again. Because
I work second shift. I get home and it's dark

(43:05):
outside and there's of course no one outside, so I
start hearing something behind the apartments in the woods, same
sound I was hearing before, like the panting and almost
like the low growl, something moving in the woods. Now
I'm hearing what sounds like something heavy walking on the

(43:26):
roof again. It was actually just doing it about thirty
minutes ago while I was talking to you.

Speaker 1 (43:33):
So I'm not sure what it is, but it's a
lot of activity derby.

Speaker 4 (43:39):
Yeah, yeah it is, and you know, and I can't
really I mean, I wish I had an explanation, Like
I really wish that I knew what all of this was.
And I'm very interested in like cryptids and UFO type
stuff and things like that, and I always have been,
you know, and I've had some other situations and a

(44:00):
lot of this stuff I've gotten it on camera, and
then of course there's been times when there's been other
people with me and they've witnessed the same thing. I
was actually at a friend's house who lives in a
large building last year around this time. I'm sitting in
his house one night. He has a camera over his

(44:23):
property because he's very wooded, and he's had some problems
with people coming in his yard and stealing things and
things like that. So I was going to stay over
there one night, and I said, when I need to
go out to my car and get my pillows in
my blanket, and he was like, I'll walk out there
with you, but where to go?

Speaker 7 (44:40):
Straight out there? Get your stuff and get back in here.
He said, I don't go out after dark. And I'm
like why, you know, why not? He said, trust me,
you'll figure it out.

Speaker 4 (44:50):
So we go out to my car and he starts
like I hear something in the woods and like rattling,
and he's like, hurry up, we got to go.

Speaker 7 (45:00):
It's coming.

Speaker 4 (45:01):
We got to go.

Speaker 7 (45:01):
And I'm like, what do you mean it's coming? I said,
what are you talking about? He said, just come on.

Speaker 4 (45:06):
I'm starting to kind of freak out a little bit
because I'm like, what is he talking about? So I
rushing get my stuff and go back in the house,
and something smashes into the door as soon as we
close it and get a lock, like something like it
sounded like something was angry and it just smashed, and
then you could hear what sounded like claw marks going

(45:26):
down the door. And he had the camera, so we
go and look at the camera, but his camera doesn't record,
so of course there was nothing there. So then he
proceeds to start telling me. He's like, just wait until
you hear the dog. And I'm like, what do you
mean the dog and he said, the neighbor's dog. He said,
every night after it turns dark, that dog. He said,

(45:49):
it sounds like something is just terrorizing it. And sure enough,
but then about fifteen minutes of him telling me that,
I heard the dog and it it did that all long.
It would howl and it would just sound like it
was an agony, and it would just, you know, like
something was just doing something to it. And I'm like,

(46:11):
we've got to We've got to let the neighbor know.
We've got to, you know, we've got to do something.
Something's killing the dog. And he was like, no, nothing's
killing it. It'll be fine Tomorrow, he said, I'll take
you over there and let you see for yourself. He said,
it only happens at night. And I'm like, okay. So
we're sitting there and all of a sudden, I hear

(46:32):
something slammed down onto the roof and it's running across
the roof and you can hear the clawing on the roof,
and I said, what is that? He said, I told
you I don't go out after dark. He said, I
don't know what it is. I don't know how to
explain it, he said, I've seen it one time. He said,
it stands on two feet. It looks like half human

(46:55):
half bird. I said, how long have you been going
through this? He said, it's been happening for a couple
of years. And then we get to talking and he
tells me there's these people that have moved in around
that time across the street, and they were very heavy
into the occult as well, and they would he said,

(47:15):
every night they would go outside and would they would
go out in the woods and they would do their rituals.
And he's like, I think whatever they've they've conjured up
or whatever they've got going on over there has come here.
So one night, you know, we're sitting there and it's
very very quiet, and then the dog starts up, and

(47:36):
then you can hear what sounds like because it's a
tin roof, and you can hear what sounds like claws
going across the roof and running. And when I'm described
the running, like whatever this is is extremely big or
extremely heavy, it's not a person. You can tell it
is not a person. And you would just hear these
strange noises. And so during the day, I'm thinking, okay, well,

(48:00):
everything's going to be fine, nothing's going to happen until
after dark.

Speaker 7 (48:03):
I would be.

Speaker 4 (48:04):
Watching his camera and I actually had started recording his screen,
and I would see what would look like people, normal
people walking through the yard, but when you would go
out there, there was no one there. I knew I
wasn't going crazy because the camera was what was picking
it up. That's how I even knew that that was happening.

(48:27):
And then I was recording his his monitor one day
when the camera was I was watching the camera and
it literally looked like a grim Reaper and Satan both
standing on the roof of his building, because he even
had cameras to where you could see the roof of
his building because of.

Speaker 7 (48:47):
Whatever it was that was running at night.

Speaker 4 (48:50):
But whatever it was that was on his roof at night,
you could every now and then you could see like
a very vague shadow of something. I don't know what
it was, but whatever it was would stay far enough
back on the roof to where it was in the darkness.
It would never come up far enough to be into

(49:12):
the light to where you could see it, but it
would come close enough to where just a little bit
of the light would allow you to see a glimpse
of something, and whatever it was was very, very large.
And there was even video that I had that literally
looked like eyes in the trees, and I'm talking about
like in the trunk of the trees and stuff. And

(49:34):
there was one night I was sitting in his house
and I took a picture of myself and when I
looked the chair, you know, looked at underneath the chair.
There was nothing there, but in the picture it looked
like almost like something was like forming. It almost looked
like half a dog. And I showed him and I said,

(49:56):
what is that? I said, because I don't see anything.
He said, give it a few days, he said, check
it every single day, he said, and watched. Within a
few days it'd be something complete. So I'm checking this
picture every single day because I want to see if
what he's saying is true. And after three days, when

(50:16):
I went back and looked at that picture on my phone,
it looked like a complete dog laying under my chair.
Blew my mind. And I asked him, I said, how
did you know that was going to happen? He said,
because it happens like that all the time. He said,
you have no idea of the strange and weird things
that's going on around here. He said that him and
a friend of his one night, we're going to go

(50:39):
to the store, he said. They walked out the door,
he said, in the moon looked extremely low, and he said,
but it was the moon because it had the same
exact markings.

Speaker 7 (50:50):
It looked just like it, he said.

Speaker 4 (50:51):
And me and her are standing there looking at this
at the moon and talking about, Wow, the moon is
sitting really really low, like I can almost reach up
and touch it, and he said, and it was just
as full as it could be, he said, And all
of a sudden, he said, he looked at her and
he said, why is the moon moving so fast? And
she said the mooning was supposed to move and he said, no, lie.

(51:12):
He said, it was going across the sky at a
very high speed, he said, And it was like it
went from one side of the sky to the other
side of the sky, and then it just vanished. He said,
I don't know what it was. He said, it looked
just like the moon. You would swear it was the moon,
he said, but there's no way it could have been.
He said, that thing was moving at very very high speed.

(51:33):
It's very rapid speed, and so he said, you know,
that was like a lot of what he dealt with.
I never personally seen anything like that happen there, but
he said it ended up happening again, and apparently he
actually had filmed it the night that that had happened,
and it was moving extremely fast, and he showed me

(51:55):
and a few other people the video, and she had
even came by and she confirmed it as well.

Speaker 7 (52:01):
She was like, yeah, we don't know what that was.
We don't know how that happened or anything.

Speaker 4 (52:08):
He had said many times that his camera would pick
up what looked like green eyes what I had described,
something very tall, standing on two legs. It would never
come out of the darkness enough for him to be
able to see what it was. You could just tell
by how high the eyes were set that it was
definitely not an animal. There's been a lot of weird things,

(52:28):
and it's just you know, between the two counties that
I have lived in, which are side by side, you know,
there's been a lot that has taken place, and not
just to myself, but other people have been witnessing this
type of phenomena and seeing these types of things. It's
like when the light you know, when the sun goes down,

(52:51):
crazy things start happening, and there is a lot of
Satanic worship and a lot of a cult, you know,
things going on in both of these areas.

Speaker 7 (53:02):
And so I don't know if it has something to
do with with that or or what.

Speaker 4 (53:08):
I just know that there's definitely something going on and
a lot of There's been a lot of instances too
where when things would be happening, cell phone service would
go completely out, Like the only thing you could do
was call nine one one. Your phone would call nine
one one emergency.

Speaker 2 (53:27):
That was it.

Speaker 7 (53:28):
You could not make any phone calls out to anyone.
You couldn't do anything.

Speaker 4 (53:35):
Like I said, you know, not sure what's going on,
but and there's there have been some people that have
said some things about like some UFO sidings and stuff.
So there I've known a few people that have talked
about like strange things in the woods as far as
like they would see like very bright orbs and then

(53:56):
the next day when they would go back to the spot,
they would see where like it was like something had
been there because the you know, whether it was grass
or leaves or whatever was pushed down in like a
circular motion. Yeah, and you know, and I've I myself
have had instances where I have lost hours. There's been

(54:18):
there's even been times where I've lost like a whole
day or two days. What I felt like was a
whole day or two days. But people that know me
remembered seeing me or or speaking to me or but
I wouldn't have any memory of those hours or days
or anything like that. And if I did, like they

(54:42):
would really have to talk to me and remind me,
and then I would vaguely remember. It wasn't something that
you know, I was like, oh, yeah, definitely now remember. No,
it was just like I would have like very vague
memories of it. So it was almost like I was
kind of like in an out of it. So I'm
not really sure you know what was going on there,

(55:05):
what happened there, or anything. It was definitely definitely something
though you.

Speaker 1 (55:11):
Know, a lot of these experiences v They've all happened
in different locations. The link between them all is the yeah,
would you say you're sensitive or anything like that.

Speaker 4 (55:21):
So I've always been since I was a child, and
my mom is the same way. I've always been able
to see things that most people can't, you know, like
as a child, there was an entity that used to
visit me every night when I would be laying in
my bed, and it was a woman. She was in

(55:42):
a like a gown from like the eighteen hundreds, and
she would come down the hallway and get to my door,
and she would always smile at me. Sometimes she would speak,
and then she would just disappear. And my mom has had,
like like I said, she's had the same kinds of
situations happened, And I never really spoke on it, you know,

(56:05):
because people are so quick to want to blame it
on a mental illness or or something other than what
it is. Unfortunately, people have always been so very closed
minded on things, and they don't you know, I guess
it's easier.

Speaker 7 (56:22):
To deny it so that you don't have to accept
the reality of it.

Speaker 4 (56:26):
But I have been, you know, very sensitive when it
comes to things in my life as far as like
being able to see see things that a lot of
people cannot always see.

Speaker 7 (56:36):
And somehow I have managed to.

Speaker 4 (56:40):
Throughout my life run into other people just like me,
you know, like the person that confronted what I honestly
feel was you know, a demonic entity.

Speaker 7 (56:51):
He was aware that it was there.

Speaker 4 (56:52):
He knew it was there, and so he chose to
speak out and confront it and ask it why it
was there, and the other person that was with this,
you know, also heard its response. So that was three
different people. Me and then the two of them that
heard it that day and knew that it was there
could sense that it was there. And then the night
that I was in my car, and whatever that was,

(57:16):
I'm assuming was a Tommy knocker was being curious and
watching my boyfriend sleeping in the bed that night. But
I think there is a lot of things that I
have seen though, and if I would not have had
a camera with the footage to be able to back
it up, a lot of people probably would not have
believed it, but I have. Luckily, I was able to

(57:36):
catch those things on camera because I was already seeing
these things.

Speaker 7 (57:41):
I knew they were very real.

Speaker 4 (57:42):
I knew was what I was, that I was experiencing
these things. A lot of my camera footage, this is
the crazy thing, though. A lot of the footage that
I caught of, like the person disappearing in the thin
era in the room, coming in as one person changing
into something that looked female, changing back into themselves and
just walking through the room and disappearing, and then the

(58:03):
two entities that ran by my camera and would have
had to ran into the wall or through the wall. Unfortunately,
that stuff somehow was deleted off of my phone. I
lost that footage. I didn't personally delete it, but somehow
it disappeared. So it tells me that whatever it is
is capable and smart enough to be able to erase

(58:27):
things that can prove its existence. And the only reason
that I have like the footage that I have now
of things is because I've literally saved it in so
many different locations, and I've even been smart enough to
send it to other people and have them save it as.

Speaker 7 (58:46):
A file on personal computers things like that.

Speaker 4 (58:50):
And I've also saved it on like like the little
jump drives things like that to make sure I didn't
lose the footage, so that I had that proof so
that people could you know, see and witness and hear
for themselves that look, this is really happening. This really happens.
She really seen this. And then, like I said, and
then I've ran into to other people like the person

(59:13):
that I was talking about, who seen what they thought
was the moon moving at an extremely high rate and
then they also witnessed whatever it was that looked have human,
have bird what they've went through and stuff. So I
don't know if it has like occult ties, but I
mean I feel like I feel like a lot of
it is probably cryptid type activity, or it could shape

(59:37):
shifter skin walker, or it could be alien origin. I'm
not sure exactly what it is, but I've been blessed fortunately,
and since I've been on my spiritual journey with God,
I have definitely my senses have been heightened a lot
more and I can see a lot of things that
I was having to use a camera to see before.

(59:58):
Now I've been able to to see these things a
lot more without camera and hear as well. Like I said,
now I can like every night it sounds like something's
walking on the roof of my apartment and.

Speaker 7 (01:00:13):
It does that throughout the night.

Speaker 4 (01:00:14):
It's almost like whatever it is that I'm dealing with,
it's not trying to harm me, because this is you know,
these things have been taking place and going on now
since like twenty twenty one, twenty twenty two, So if
it was trying to harm me, it could have done
it plenty of times because I've been alone. Many times

(01:00:35):
I've been out by myself in the woods and things
like that. So whatever whatever these things are, it could
have already harmed me or or done anything to me.
But it's almost like whatever I've dealt with, it has
just been observing. It's like it's curious or it's or
it's observing to see just it's like it's studying.

Speaker 7 (01:00:56):
So I'm not sure exactly what.

Speaker 4 (01:01:00):
With, but I just I know that I've dealt with
several different things, and I have noticed that whatever it
is follows me, moving from the county that I was
in and moving to the county that I am now,
which is about an hour distance from where I was
at to where I'm at now. Whatever it is has
the capability of following because I'm hearing the sounds on

(01:01:25):
the roof as well as the very low growl in
the woods and the eyes and the panting and the
movement in the woods. So whatever it is, it for
some reason, it seems to follow me wherever I go,
no matter where I moved to or how far away

(01:01:45):
I move, it seems to follow.

Speaker 8 (01:02:34):
It's Time, It's.

Speaker 1 (01:02:35):
Ew It's the x x X. You mentioned I you're
on a spiritual journey now and in the past you
did dabble in probably the more whiter side of the art.

(01:02:55):
Have you seen any change and how is the spiritual
journey go in?

Speaker 4 (01:03:01):
So, the spiritual journey is going absolutely amazing. Since I
have turned my life over to God and I've given
everything to Him and I pray to him, and of
course I read scripture, it seems like, I mean, I'm
at a greater peace now, whereas before when a lot
of this was going on, I wasn't. I can't really
say that I was scared because I had a lot
of people say I don't see how you do it,

(01:03:22):
because I would have ran, you know. And the person
that actually said that was the person that practices in
blood rituals, in dark magic and is the one who
is into Satanic worship, and his exact words to me was,
I don't see how you do it. You are very brave,
because I would have already ran if I was dealing
with some of the things that you're dealing with. I've

(01:03:44):
just had to put my faith in God and know
that He's going to protect me. And I have kind
of wondered too at times, like have I went through
a lot of these things? I mean, I know that
God's always been close to me, and I know He's
always watched for me, but I feel like a lot
of times like maybe He's allowed me to see some

(01:04:07):
of the things that I have seen to make me
more spiritually prepared, to let me know what is that,
what exactly I have to deal with and how to
overcome it or beat it or whatever. But you know,
the spiritual journey itself, though, has been it's been very great.
But I have noticed that there is a lot of

(01:04:28):
a lot more demonic forces that have popped up in
my life, which of course is going to happen because
you've got the good side versus the bad side, and
so I you know, I know that I have dealt
with a lot more demonic type things and even being
around like other people, which I thought maybe it was

(01:04:49):
just me, But there's some other people that are on
their spiritual journey that I'm really good friends with, and
they have noticed. They've come to me and said, I
can see the demons in people, and which I was
already seeing them, but I didn't speak on it because
of the simple fact.

Speaker 7 (01:05:06):
Of how people will view you.

Speaker 4 (01:05:09):
But like when they came to me and told me,
and they would actually name the people and it was
the same exact people. I was seeing the same things.
Then I was seeing the demons within them as well,
because when they would look at you, it was almost
like they had no emotions, and it was almost when
they would look at you, they were not looking at you.

Speaker 7 (01:05:25):
It was like they're looking through you.

Speaker 1 (01:05:28):
Maybe you should take them and help them find God.

Speaker 4 (01:05:31):
That's yeah, that's what I want to do. But there's
just certain ones. I'm the kind of person God has
given me the gift and the ability of discernment, for one,
and he has also given me the ability to be
able to you know, I'm an EmPATH, so I feel
everything and when people get around me, certain people and

(01:05:53):
I can tell that I can feel and sense the
evil in them. It doesn't sit right in my spirit.
So my first thing is to get away because the
first thing that comes up to me is danger, and
I feel like God's given me that ability so that
I can be safe and so that he can protect me.
He wants me to be aware of what's there and

(01:06:15):
what's out there and what I'm having to deal with spiritually,
but at the same time, he wants me to be
able to protect myself as well. So I think he
does give me that ability. And like I said, the
other people that have been around it's on their spiritual
journeys as well. They've been witnessing the same exact things
and going through the same things as well.

Speaker 7 (01:06:37):
So I would love to be able to help everyone.

Speaker 4 (01:06:40):
I absolutely would, But unfortunately, some of the people that
we've came across and we've dealt with, it's like the
best way I can explain it is it's almost the
person is no longer in there. Whatever it is that
has taken them over is now in full control.

Speaker 1 (01:06:56):
You know, there is a lot of evil in the world,
people going through different things, So the important thing is
to keep yourself safe and try and avoid having people
like this in your life.

Speaker 4 (01:07:06):
Yeah, and like I know, like you know, a lot
of the things that I have seen, I do relate
it to like the spiritual journey and like spiritual warfare,
like the demonic side of things.

Speaker 7 (01:07:18):
I've done a lot of research. I love doing research.
That's one of my favorite things to do.

Speaker 4 (01:07:24):
So when I witness something or I see something, my
first reaction is figure out what is it that I
am seeing?

Speaker 7 (01:07:31):
What am I dealing with?

Speaker 4 (01:07:32):
And so that's how I found out about like the
Tommy Knockers and like the trolls and things like that.
And believe it or not, where I'm from in North Carolina,
which is the western part of North Carolina. While doing
my research, I came across an article they were talking
about they had actually found faery mounds not far from there.

(01:07:53):
And I've always been very interested in fairies as well.
But you know, a lot of these things that people
think are just mythical or mystical or whatever. There's research
that's actually being done that's proving these things are actually real.
There's really cryptids, there's really UFOs, there's aliens. And my

(01:08:14):
theory on things have always been God created this whole universe,
and I just don't see him putting life on one
planet and that's it. I truly feel that there's other.

Speaker 7 (01:08:28):
Life form out there. You know.

Speaker 4 (01:08:30):
I have seen like the strange orbs and you know,
and some of the things that I have seen, which
most people call cryptids. You know, it makes you wonder
is it a cryptid or is it something else? Is
it something otherworldly?

Speaker 1 (01:08:46):
Absolutely? I mean there's folklore around the world and sometimes
these stories it can be parables and metaphors. But North Carolina,
South Carolina is so rich in folklore, and you're from
the western parts that would be kind of mining areas,
mining towns.

Speaker 4 (01:09:04):
Yeah, there is actually where I grew up at five
minutes up the road is a gold mine. There's a
lot of like caves and stuff, and there's been some
bigfoot sidings in that area as well. There's even been
bigfoot sidings in the area that I'm in right now,
because I'm in the upper part of South Carolina close

(01:09:24):
to North Carolina, and so this whole.

Speaker 7 (01:09:26):
Area right through here.

Speaker 4 (01:09:27):
And I've lived in the southern part of South Carolina
and never experienced anything like this. But when I moved
up to this area where there's it seems like there's
a lot more. Where I came from, they had like
sightings of the lizard Man and things like that. But

(01:09:48):
and I actually just watched a video the other night,
and this actually happened in North Carolina, but it was
on the other side of North Carolina, going towards like
the Raleigh Durham area of North Carolina, and it's actually
I think it's been all over YouTube. There was a
gentleman that was interviewed and he was driving down the

(01:10:08):
road and this was recently and he thought that he'd
seen a man standing on the side of the road bleeding,
so he called nine one one was trying to explain
to the dispatcher. He was way out in the country
and he was going to visit family and he told
them that there was a man on the side of
the road. He thought he was injured. It looked like
he had blood all over him. And then suddenly you

(01:10:30):
can hear something hit the man's truck and he starts saying,
what was that? And then the nine one one caller
also says, you know, sir, what was that? And then
all of a sudden, you can hear the guy go
into full panic mode, saying, something just jumped in the
back of my truck. And then he starts screaming, it's
not human, it's not human. At some point in time,
he was able to slam on the brake and when

(01:10:52):
he did, it flew over and it came down on
the hood and hit the ground and jumped up and
ran off, and he said that it was definitely not human,
and even the I think it was. The sheriff of
that town was in the interview as well, and he
said that they had had several sightings and when the

(01:11:14):
gentleman had done the interview on the guy that it
had happened to, while they were doing that interview, someone
else had actually contacted him and had had the same sighting.
What it was described as almost looked like a wind
to go, which is kind of what I seen in
my backyard that night that was crawling on its hands
and feet, but.

Speaker 7 (01:11:34):
It wasn't identical to a windo Go.

Speaker 4 (01:11:38):
I don't know exactly what it was it didn't look
identical to a Windo Go, but it did look a
lot like with the gray skin and you could see
the bones and it almost looked like the skin was
almost hanging off, but it was like very very thin,
paper thin, and the bald head and then some of
them having like very stringy, you know, hair, almost like

(01:11:59):
what you would if you've ever seen like a picture
of Halloween of like a corpse or something, what they
show when it's the skeleton and it's just got that
real thin hair lift.

Speaker 7 (01:12:10):
That's what the hair look like on these things.

Speaker 4 (01:12:12):
So there's all across the state of North Carolina, there's
been sightings, and there's been sightings in South Carolina, but
it seems like in this area that I'm in, the
two counties that I'm describing, it seems like there's been
a lot of different things. And I know you had
actually had a guest on your show back in December
of last year, and he was talking about the Tommy Knockers,

(01:12:34):
and he was even talking about the Gnomes where he's
seen those things. That wasn't far from where I'm at
right now. So there's definitely something. There's definitely things that
we're not familiar with it, and for some reason, I
don't know if it's because there's a lot more housing
developments that are being built, so everything that's been able

(01:12:57):
to hide in the woods is now having to kind
of start coming out because of the simple fact the
land is being developed all around now. So it's almost
like the wildlife. As land is developed, the wildlife starts
moving more into the city areas and things like that,

(01:13:18):
and it's almost like whatever these things are, these cryptids
or aliens or whatever they are, that's been hiding in
the woods all these many many years and generations and centuries,
is now having to come out because they're being forced out.

Speaker 7 (01:13:36):
They're no longer able to hide exactly.

Speaker 1 (01:13:39):
When we're building houses and we're moving into their homeland,
going to see more and more encounters with things. This
is what happens. And of course, yeah, that was scratched
from episode three thirteen. I think reality's collide. And yeah,
and he was South Carolina.

Speaker 4 (01:13:56):
He was actually I know he lived in Spartanburg. What
he had said is where he lived at, and that's
actually where I'm at. I'm in Spartanburg as well, where
his events took place at was not far from here,
and there's actually there is a gentleman that lives I
can't remember exactly what county it is, but he has

(01:14:19):
a he does a YouTube show with another gentleman on
cryptids and he's only I think he's about forty minutes
from me, something like that, and he's a sheriff's deputy
and he's told his story as well, a bigfoot staring
at him through the back door when he was a
child and stuff. Because of the things that he has
seen child growing up and as well as being a

(01:14:41):
deputy sheriff, it's gotten him into the whole cryptid world.
And they actually go out and search for these things
and they've had dog man encounters and everything in these areas.
So yeah, I mean, there's there's definitely things out there
that we cann explained that we've always been told is folklore,

(01:15:04):
don't exist, they're not real, but people are seeing them
more and more and they're finding evidence of them. They're
finding actual foot tracks and things like that. That's proving
that these things are real. These things are, they definitely exist.
And the situations where I've had where I've heard something
in the woods and whatever these things are, I've heard

(01:15:27):
of like dog man attacks, what they think is dog
man attacks. They were actually I was watching their show
the other night and they were talking about some accidents
that have happened to two different people. They're blaming it
on a pack of wild dogs. That it's something different.
They think that it could possibly be like a dog
man type attack or something like that. But and I've

(01:15:49):
even had instances. I love to walk in the woods
where my mom and dad live at They live way
back out in the country and it's very wooded, and
I used to just last year, I would go out
into the woods and I would walk for five hours,
way up in the woods. And when I would be walking,
I could hear what would sound like something was walking

(01:16:11):
behind me, not close, keep its distant, but almost like
it was just observing me, just watching me. So it's
almost like whatever these things are, I'm sure some of
them are hostile, but it seems like the encounters that
I've had, they're just curious. They're curious about us the
way that we're curious about them.

Speaker 1 (01:16:30):
It's got to be careful when you're out there alone
in some of these wooded areas. Parents properly you have
had given obviosly the location away is that the same
western North Carolina.

Speaker 7 (01:16:40):
Yes it is.

Speaker 4 (01:16:41):
Yeah, it's not up in the mountains, but it's considered
the foothills of the mountains, very very close to the mountains.
If you stand like in their yard, you can see
the mountains in the background. And there's been a lot
of people that, like I said, I do my research
because when I'm seeing things, I want to know what
I'm seeing, what it could be. And so just doing

(01:17:05):
all of my research because I've been researching these things
probably for two years now. Over my two years of
researching these different things, because I knew it wasn't just
demons that I was dealing with, It wasn't all demonic.
I knew that it was some type of cryptid or
alien affiliated or something. I've come across a lot of
different things. And the Cherokee Indians are in the North

(01:17:29):
Carolina Mountains and they talk of a lot of things,
and then we're right in the Appalachian Mountains, and so
there's been a lot of sightings of many, many different
type things all through North and South Carolina. On this
side of the state, there's been sightings of the gnomes
and the Tommy Knockers, trolls, faery mounds, actual fairies. There's

(01:17:51):
been dog man, lizard man, and then I forget what
the Indians call the which is what I think the
person I was talking about earlier was describing that looked
like half bird, half man. I have researched and found
stories of There's a gentleman also on YouTube that did
a story not too long ago who he and his

(01:18:13):
family were actually chased in their car by this thing
and then it showed up at his house.

Speaker 7 (01:18:19):
So there's been sightings.

Speaker 4 (01:18:21):
Now that was out west of the United States, but
there's a lot of sightings that people are having, and
there's no way that all these different people are seeing
these things and they're making it up. Some stories may
be made up, or they may add to the story
or or something, but there's no way that so many

(01:18:42):
people are having the same sightings in the same areas
or nearby and these things are not real.

Speaker 1 (01:18:50):
There's no way this is such a rich pass in
those areas. If you know, if you're doing these researching
and you're putting these accounts together, you know, maybe put
it down some maybe in a book or something, because
a lot of these accountcies folklore story is important to
keep them going because some of them are absolutely fascinating.
There are just so many.

Speaker 4 (01:19:09):
Yeah, and like I said, growing up as a child
seeing things that I seen as a child back then,
because I was born in the eighties and so back then,
it was always people would shut it down.

Speaker 7 (01:19:21):
Oh no, you didn't see that.

Speaker 4 (01:19:23):
That stuff don't exist, that stuff's not real. Until here
in the last i don't know, maybe ten years, people
have really just kind of lifted the veil and they
really started coming forward and discussing these things more So
now there's a lot more literature that you can research
and you can find on these things. And then sometimes

(01:19:45):
you have to just break down. And my case me
being able to record a lot of these things and
then show these things to people and they were like, oh, well,
I've been through this same thing. I also had an instance.
This was last year, about five minutes from where I'm
living at right now. I was at a friend's house
and they were not home, so I was sitting out

(01:20:06):
in the car and it was probably ten o'clock at night,
and I was sitting out in the car in the
driveway waiting for them to get home. And I started
getting that feeling again, you know the back of my neck.
Something's watching me. So I cut my headlights on. I
was facing the woodline. I cut my headlights on, and
I just got my camera, you know, my phone, and
I just kind of start scanning the woodline. Didn't see

(01:20:27):
anything at first. I had my window down so that
I could hear and I could hear something moving in
the woods, kind of back and forth. It was trying
to get like the perfect view of me, is what
I almost felt like. And then I probably recorded for
about six or seven minutes. And then as I brought
my camera around one more time, I caught something I

(01:20:50):
don't know.

Speaker 7 (01:20:51):
I don't even know what it would be called. It
looked like a human, but.

Speaker 4 (01:20:55):
It looked like a child, maybe ten years old, but
the face it was almost like it had twenty ears.

Speaker 7 (01:21:04):
It had a very long nose.

Speaker 4 (01:21:08):
And its face with its mouth was very wide, and
it had like razor sharp teeth. And I actually I
caught it on camera and it just it almost looked
like it was smiling at me, and it just stood
and watched right by a tree and observed me. They
came home and I showed them and they said, where

(01:21:29):
did you get that, I said, right there, it was
right there in the woods, right here at your yard.
They started telling me about how they had been hearing
strange things at night, strange sounds, would you know, sound
like something or someone was walking in the woods. My
dad had me in the woods from the time I
was three years old on up hunting. We would night

(01:21:51):
hunt and they hunt, so I'm very familiar with the wood.
I'm very familiar with the animals and how they sound
when they walk, and you can tell when it's a deer,
and like, we have a lot of panthers in North
Carolina and they normally only come out at night, and
when they cry, they sound like a baby crying or

(01:22:12):
a woman screaming, is what they sound like. And there's
been instances where I thought I was hearing a panther
at night, but then it would be followed by what
sounded like teenage boys or men laughing afterwards, so I
knew it wasn't that. So it kind of bothered me

(01:22:35):
at one time because I was what if that was
a female? What was going on out there?

Speaker 1 (01:22:39):
You know?

Speaker 7 (01:22:39):
And I don't know if it was tied to the
occult or what.

Speaker 4 (01:22:43):
I just know that in this area, in this county
and the county next to us, there is a lot
of occult things that's going on. And I've had a
lot of people tell me about children going missing, females
going missing and never found. They've never seen them again,
they've never found them. They don't have any leads or anything.

(01:23:05):
And it was always around wooded areas and things. So
I don't know, you know, if it has anything to
do with it or not, but there's definitely been some
very strange things happen.

Speaker 1 (01:23:21):
Yeah, I think now and again that veil gets opened
a little bit, but I think these days you know
that veil has been pulled right back. Yes, Well, the
thank you for sharing all that today. If you do
experience anything else, please update us and keep in contact.

Speaker 4 (01:23:37):
In that I want to actually, since I've been doing
my research on cryptids, I want to get into like
really studying cryptids. And I'm the kind of person I
don't run from things like that. I would love to
start going out and actually start filming and see what
I can find. So anything that I can come up
with and come across and record or whatever, I'd be

(01:24:00):
more than happy to send to you.

Speaker 1 (01:24:01):
Oh that would be wonderful. Well, will right, Let's let's
put a call light to the Carolinas. Then, oh, out
of interest, what was the name of that that channel
that you mentioned before that's local to you?

Speaker 4 (01:24:13):
Okay, So it is called Carolina case Files. And the
gentleman he recorded the guy it was, it says dispatch
call log's revealed class a rake, So I must I
guess it was a rake that the guy seen, is
what they call it. So I guess that's what I
had seen that night, was something kind of cross between

(01:24:35):
maybe a rake and a windogo or something like that,
which they I think they say that a rake is
basically like a windo go. But but yeah, the story
is on there can hear the nine to one one
call and everything wonderful.

Speaker 1 (01:24:48):
Let's give him a plug Carolina case Files on YouTube.
I'll check them out. Of course, a rake is not
something I'd want to meet along a country road late
at night on.

Speaker 7 (01:24:57):
My own right exactly.

Speaker 1 (01:25:00):
But let's put a call to our listeners in North
Carolina and South Carolina. If you have experienced anything along
the lines of what VE has, please get in contact.
Would be interested in hearing them. Like I said, so
rich in these accounts we want to hear them. Yes,
and good luck with your continued journey on your spiritual path.

Speaker 7 (01:25:20):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (01:25:21):
Like I said, I think he's always been kind of
weighing on me. I had just ventured away from him
for the longest time. I guess I wasn't ready. But
it's like the more that I distanced myself from him,
he would always draw me back and so and then
it's really gotten heavy, you know, in the.

Speaker 7 (01:25:39):
Last few years.

Speaker 4 (01:25:40):
And I think he's that's why he's opened my eyes
and allowed me to see these things. But like I said,
I've always been able to see things and hear things
that not necessarily everyone else could hear. My mom is
the same way. She's very sensitive when it comes to
spiritual things. She and I we get feeling a lot,

(01:26:01):
and we can tell when something's wrong with each other,
even though she's almost two hours away. It's nothing for
us to call each other at three o'clock in the morning.
Hair you okay, I just got this really bad feeling.
And a lot of times when we'll call each other,
one of us is sick or and there's there's been
times when I was growing up, I had actually been

(01:26:21):
my dad. My dad is an old mountain man, and
he was in military, and so he has been kind
of closed minded to a lot of things. So it's
like sometimes he didn't really take me serious. And I
remember one time I told him, I said, I don't
know who it is, but somebody's going to die in
a helicopter crash. I said, and I don't know when,
but it's going to be soon. It was like two

(01:26:44):
days later he come and woke me up. I was
sleeping and he woke me up and his favorite NASCAR
driver had actually died in a helicopter crash.

Speaker 7 (01:26:53):
He was like, I don't know how you knew that.

Speaker 1 (01:26:55):
Yeah, I was like a precognition.

Speaker 7 (01:26:57):
Yeah. And then there was times after.

Speaker 4 (01:27:00):
I'm divorced now, but when I was married to my husband,
I would always have these recurring dreams, and as morbid
as they sound, it was always him laying in a
coffin in a black suit with in a black casket
with bright red roses on top of the casket. And
every time I would have that dream and I would
wake up, I would tell him and I would tell

(01:27:20):
my mom, I'm like, somebody close to us is going
to pass away in the next few days. I just don't,
you know, I never knew who it was. I just
knew that it was coming, and sure enough, someone close
to us would pass away, whether it was my grandmother
or my grandfather, or an aunt or an uncle or whatever,
or you know, a close friend would pass away. So

(01:27:41):
the dreams they had, actually I had them for several
years and then they stopped and I haven't had them
again since now. I did have an instance where it
was about three months ago my childhood best friend who
I've known since kindergarten. I'm very close to her mom
because I've known her since I was five years old
and I'm forty five now. So she lives in North

(01:28:03):
Carolina as well. She had been sick, but last night
talked to her. She was doing a little bit better.
She had had infection in her body, but she was
getting better from it. I had a horrible dream about
her and dream that she had passed away. So when
I woke up, I was on my way to work
and I messaged her and I was like, hey, are
you okay? And I told her about my dream, and

(01:28:23):
I can actually send you the text message that she
sent me. She said, I'm okay, baby, I'm in the hospital.
I'm not doing good. I'm very weak. She said, your
feeling was right. She said, I always told you to
trust your feelings and trust your gut. And that was
my best friend's mom, and she has she's aware of
the gifts that I had growing up as well. She
knew I could see. I don't know if you would

(01:28:45):
call it seeing into the spirit or what, but yeah.
And I hadn't talked to her before that day. I
hadn't talked to her in lunch. So she's been very
supportive of me as well as my mom. My Mom's
been very supportive of me, because, like I said, my
mom my mom has experienced things like this to a
point that her gifts are not quite as strong as mine.

(01:29:09):
Hers has like a cut off point, whereas mine don't.
There's a lot more that I'm able to see and
hear and notice and feel that she necessarily is unable
to good to have people.

Speaker 1 (01:29:24):
Like that around you do support you wonderful, okay, V.
