00:03:34,470 --> 00:03:32,480 locations and done research 78 00:03:35,830 --> 00:03:34,480 as well as the uinta basin where where 79 00:03:37,190 --> 00:03:35,840 did we kick off here where should we 80 00:03:40,470 --> 00:03:37,200 start 81 00:03:41,990 --> 00:03:40,480 well i think the most uh recent um theme 82 00:03:43,350 --> 00:03:42,000 that people seem to be most interested 83 00:03:45,350 --> 00:03:43,360 in is 84 00:03:47,110 --> 00:03:45,360 skin walker ranch or the ui basin here 85 00:03:48,710 --> 00:03:47,120 in northeastern utah 86 00:03:50,949 --> 00:03:48,720 it was something that i've 87 00:03:53,030 --> 00:03:50,959 researched for upwards of about 15 years 88 00:03:54,470 --> 00:03:53,040 now but didn't really get a lot of 89 00:03:56,550 --> 00:03:54,480 attention back 90 00:03:58,550 --> 00:03:56,560 when i first started doing it not many 91 00:04:01,110 --> 00:03:58,560 people really knew that much about it 92 00:04:02,470 --> 00:04:01,120 they weren't really familiar uh with it 93 00:04:03,990 --> 00:04:02,480 and so you know i'd written some 94 00:04:05,429 --> 00:04:04,000 articles and whatnot for the magazine i 95 00:04:07,350 --> 00:04:05,439 was currently working for at the time 96 00:04:08,550 --> 00:04:07,360 and just kind of let it go i just kind 97 00:04:11,589 --> 00:04:08,560 of put it in the back of my mind and 98 00:04:14,070 --> 00:04:11,599 went on to other things but with the 99 00:04:15,429 --> 00:04:14,080 show on the history channel the secret 100 00:04:16,310 --> 00:04:15,439 of skinwalker ranch people started to 101 00:04:17,909 --> 00:04:16,320 get 102 00:04:19,830 --> 00:04:17,919 more interested in the subject again and 103 00:04:21,189 --> 00:04:19,840 started reaching out to me and uh have 104 00:04:22,550 --> 00:04:21,199 asked that i share 105 00:04:24,310 --> 00:04:22,560 my story so that's something that's 106 00:04:25,990 --> 00:04:24,320 happened recently that i haven't been 107 00:04:27,830 --> 00:04:26,000 quite used to so it's really nice to 108 00:04:29,430 --> 00:04:27,840 actually have a platform to to share 109 00:04:32,070 --> 00:04:29,440 that with people now 110 00:04:34,230 --> 00:04:32,080 so true it is something that has really 111 00:04:35,990 --> 00:04:34,240 kind of been in the recesses in the past 112 00:04:38,310 --> 00:04:36,000 and now it just seems like it's on the 113 00:04:39,830 --> 00:04:38,320 forefront well let's kick off there i 114 00:04:42,230 --> 00:04:39,840 think that's a great place to kick off i 115 00:04:44,950 --> 00:04:42,240 know you've been to the area and had 116 00:04:47,909 --> 00:04:44,960 some experiences let's delve into them 117 00:04:49,110 --> 00:04:47,919 sure um well i initially my first trip 118 00:04:51,030 --> 00:04:49,120 um 119 00:04:53,510 --> 00:04:51,040 out to the area 120 00:04:57,189 --> 00:04:53,520 to the to skinwalker specifically was in 121 00:04:59,350 --> 00:04:57,199 october of 2006 i believe and so it's 122 00:05:00,870 --> 00:04:59,360 been it's been a minute um and that 123 00:05:02,390 --> 00:05:00,880 first visit to the area was i was 124 00:05:05,270 --> 00:05:02,400 actually not on the ranch i believe i 125 00:05:07,830 --> 00:05:05,280 was on the property that you now own 126 00:05:09,430 --> 00:05:07,840 when i first visited that borders the 127 00:05:11,990 --> 00:05:09,440 ranch yep 128 00:05:14,790 --> 00:05:12,000 and so i was taken out there by my 129 00:05:16,550 --> 00:05:14,800 friend uh who we lovingly call alien 130 00:05:18,390 --> 00:05:16,560 dave rosenfeld i believe he's a friend 131 00:05:20,310 --> 00:05:18,400 of yours as well yeah and he was the one 132 00:05:22,550 --> 00:05:20,320 that connected us i think initially 133 00:05:24,870 --> 00:05:22,560 um and you know i got to talking to him 134 00:05:26,790 --> 00:05:24,880 about skinwalker i read the book by 135 00:05:28,790 --> 00:05:26,800 kelleher knapp and hunt for the 136 00:05:30,550 --> 00:05:28,800 skinwalker and you know dave said he 137 00:05:32,629 --> 00:05:30,560 knew where where this place was and he'd 138 00:05:35,670 --> 00:05:32,639 be willing to take me out there and so i 139 00:05:38,310 --> 00:05:35,680 jumped at the chance to go and 140 00:05:40,469 --> 00:05:38,320 from the moment i decided to go until i 141 00:05:41,430 --> 00:05:40,479 came back home from that experience it 142 00:05:44,629 --> 00:05:41,440 was just 143 00:05:47,270 --> 00:05:44,639 a surreal sort of thing um 144 00:05:49,749 --> 00:05:47,280 there was a group of six of us that dave 145 00:05:53,110 --> 00:05:49,759 escorted out to to the southern border 146 00:05:54,790 --> 00:05:53,120 of skinwalker ranch and we decided to 147 00:05:56,309 --> 00:05:54,800 camp out there but on the way from salt 148 00:05:59,590 --> 00:05:56,319 lake city to 149 00:06:00,710 --> 00:05:59,600 the basin we got pulled over twice 150 00:06:03,670 --> 00:06:00,720 by 151 00:06:05,350 --> 00:06:03,680 police or our sheriff's deputies and we 152 00:06:06,870 --> 00:06:05,360 weren't speeding we didn't have lights 153 00:06:08,230 --> 00:06:06,880 out there was no reason to pull us over 154 00:06:09,990 --> 00:06:08,240 which is kind of odd it was kind of 155 00:06:11,110 --> 00:06:10,000 seemed to me like hmm i wonder if they 156 00:06:13,670 --> 00:06:11,120 know we're coming out there because at 157 00:06:15,590 --> 00:06:13,680 the time it was still a huge kind of big 158 00:06:17,909 --> 00:06:15,600 secreted thing it wasn't there was no tv 159 00:06:19,189 --> 00:06:17,919 show there was you know peop the locals 160 00:06:21,029 --> 00:06:19,199 really didn't even want people to know 161 00:06:23,110 --> 00:06:21,039 where this place was and so it kind of 162 00:06:24,950 --> 00:06:23,120 put me on edge that okay well i'm 163 00:06:25,670 --> 00:06:24,960 already being asked why i'm headed out 164 00:06:28,309 --> 00:06:25,680 to 165 00:06:30,710 --> 00:06:28,319 the basin uh by police officers and i 166 00:06:32,390 --> 00:06:30,720 wasn't a stranger to the basin um i 167 00:06:34,790 --> 00:06:32,400 spent most of my summers growing up out 168 00:06:37,189 --> 00:06:34,800 there with with cousins and family so 169 00:06:39,189 --> 00:06:37,199 and had had weird experiences so to me 170 00:06:40,870 --> 00:06:39,199 it was normal to be going out there but 171 00:06:42,629 --> 00:06:40,880 it seemed like something just kind of 172 00:06:43,430 --> 00:06:42,639 knew we were coming 173 00:06:45,350 --> 00:06:43,440 and 174 00:06:46,710 --> 00:06:45,360 so we get to the property we set up for 175 00:06:49,510 --> 00:06:46,720 the evening 176 00:06:51,909 --> 00:06:49,520 it was in october and you know waited 177 00:06:53,430 --> 00:06:51,919 for for night to fall and just started 178 00:06:55,029 --> 00:06:53,440 kind of surveilling over the homesteads 179 00:06:56,150 --> 00:06:55,039 from the southern end of the property 180 00:06:58,230 --> 00:06:56,160 and 181 00:07:00,550 --> 00:06:58,240 just weird stuff started happening to 182 00:07:02,710 --> 00:07:00,560 all of us now i have to uh 183 00:07:04,790 --> 00:07:02,720 put an asterisk on this that 184 00:07:06,790 --> 00:07:04,800 out of the six of us that were there all 185 00:07:08,950 --> 00:07:06,800 of us had vastly different experiences 186 00:07:11,350 --> 00:07:08,960 um and i don't discount anybody else's 187 00:07:13,029 --> 00:07:11,360 uh recalling of the incidents but 188 00:07:13,909 --> 00:07:13,039 uh mine were quite a bit different than 189 00:07:16,790 --> 00:07:13,919 some of the things that have been 190 00:07:18,870 --> 00:07:16,800 reported in the past so um at the time i 191 00:07:19,589 --> 00:07:18,880 was dating an individual who was 192 00:07:22,230 --> 00:07:19,599 in 193 00:07:24,629 --> 00:07:22,240 what he called chaos magic or 194 00:07:26,950 --> 00:07:24,639 what i would call black magic things to 195 00:07:29,270 --> 00:07:26,960 kind of disrupt or upset 196 00:07:30,790 --> 00:07:29,280 and that's not something that i i 197 00:07:31,749 --> 00:07:30,800 condone at all it's not something i i 198 00:07:33,510 --> 00:07:31,759 practice 199 00:07:35,909 --> 00:07:33,520 sure i do a lot of research into it but 200 00:07:38,070 --> 00:07:35,919 i it's not something that i i delve into 201 00:07:40,390 --> 00:07:38,080 and so he and a buddy of his that was 202 00:07:42,710 --> 00:07:40,400 there with us decided they wanted to 203 00:07:44,469 --> 00:07:42,720 carve or scratch what we call sigils 204 00:07:46,469 --> 00:07:44,479 symbols that are supposed to invoke some 205 00:07:47,589 --> 00:07:46,479 sort of energetic response out of the 206 00:07:50,629 --> 00:07:47,599 environment 207 00:07:52,390 --> 00:07:50,639 into the dirt on the on the ranch 208 00:07:54,550 --> 00:07:52,400 and i wanted no part of that whatsoever 209 00:07:56,790 --> 00:07:54,560 so they they went kind of climbed down 210 00:07:58,790 --> 00:07:56,800 onto the ranch property and and did that 211 00:08:00,550 --> 00:07:58,800 uh oblivious to me i 212 00:08:03,110 --> 00:08:00,560 had no part in it 213 00:08:05,189 --> 00:08:03,120 and then we just kind of sat there 214 00:08:08,550 --> 00:08:05,199 thinking nothing would really happen 215 00:08:09,909 --> 00:08:08,560 until things really did start to happen 216 00:08:12,070 --> 00:08:09,919 we had all different kinds of 217 00:08:14,150 --> 00:08:12,080 surveillance we had night vision we had 218 00:08:16,309 --> 00:08:14,160 binoculars we had video cameras all that 219 00:08:18,869 --> 00:08:16,319 kind of stuff and we were just watching 220 00:08:22,230 --> 00:08:18,879 over homestead one 221 00:08:23,749 --> 00:08:22,240 um and strange lights 222 00:08:26,150 --> 00:08:23,759 i believe there were blue and orange 223 00:08:27,830 --> 00:08:26,160 lights from what i can remember just 224 00:08:30,469 --> 00:08:27,840 started acting strangely in the sky 225 00:08:32,389 --> 00:08:30,479 above homestead one they weren't 226 00:08:34,389 --> 00:08:32,399 flying toward us they weren't doing it 227 00:08:37,430 --> 00:08:34,399 they were just lights it looked like 228 00:08:39,589 --> 00:08:37,440 probably big firefly lights kind of over 229 00:08:42,230 --> 00:08:39,599 the homestead and okay that's 230 00:08:43,269 --> 00:08:42,240 interesting to me that was you know wow 231 00:08:46,070 --> 00:08:43,279 i'm seeing something i don't know what 232 00:08:48,710 --> 00:08:46,080 it is um but me being the skeptical 233 00:08:50,230 --> 00:08:48,720 researcher that i am kept thinking 234 00:08:51,430 --> 00:08:50,240 okay well if someone did know we were 235 00:08:52,790 --> 00:08:51,440 coming out here they could have 236 00:08:54,310 --> 00:08:52,800 flashlights or they could have something 237 00:08:55,990 --> 00:08:54,320 rigged up out there i'm constantly 238 00:08:57,590 --> 00:08:56,000 trying to figure out how people are 239 00:08:59,750 --> 00:08:57,600 are conning 240 00:09:01,269 --> 00:08:59,760 in paranormal uh situations because 241 00:09:03,350 --> 00:09:01,279 people do that unfortunately they they 242 00:09:05,190 --> 00:09:03,360 do want to create something and they 243 00:09:07,110 --> 00:09:05,200 and they want to 244 00:09:08,470 --> 00:09:07,120 kind of trick people so watching this i 245 00:09:10,150 --> 00:09:08,480 couldn't figure out how 246 00:09:11,030 --> 00:09:10,160 how these lights were happening but they 247 00:09:14,550 --> 00:09:11,040 weren't 248 00:09:15,990 --> 00:09:14,560 really off-putting i just thought this 249 00:09:20,310 --> 00:09:16,000 is interesting 250 00:09:23,990 --> 00:09:21,910 we were just sitting there in the dark 251 00:09:25,829 --> 00:09:24,000 looking up the sky in the in the basin 252 00:09:28,310 --> 00:09:25,839 especially on a clear night it's the 253 00:09:30,470 --> 00:09:28,320 most beautiful sky stars you could see 254 00:09:32,550 --> 00:09:30,480 and there was not a cloud in the sky 255 00:09:34,070 --> 00:09:32,560 that night we were all just kind of 256 00:09:35,509 --> 00:09:34,080 looking up toward the sky and right 257 00:09:36,630 --> 00:09:35,519 above us 258 00:09:39,190 --> 00:09:36,640 was 259 00:09:41,030 --> 00:09:39,200 i would say about 300 feet 260 00:09:42,070 --> 00:09:41,040 in a rectangular type shape from what i 261 00:09:43,190 --> 00:09:42,080 can remember 262 00:09:45,750 --> 00:09:43,200 there was 263 00:09:47,350 --> 00:09:45,760 no stars stars all around that shape but 264 00:09:49,990 --> 00:09:47,360 directly above us there was just 265 00:09:51,670 --> 00:09:50,000 blackness there was nothing there was no 266 00:09:54,070 --> 00:09:51,680 spacecraft there was nothing it was just 267 00:09:56,710 --> 00:09:54,080 a void and we heard 268 00:09:57,990 --> 00:09:56,720 uh like a whirring type noise above us 269 00:10:00,470 --> 00:09:58,000 and we just kind of all sat there and 270 00:10:02,069 --> 00:10:00,480 looked at it and then within 271 00:10:03,670 --> 00:10:02,079 a minute or so it was just gone it 272 00:10:05,750 --> 00:10:03,680 didn't fly off it didn't disappear it 273 00:10:07,030 --> 00:10:05,760 just the stars reappeared and the noise 274 00:10:08,389 --> 00:10:07,040 was gone 275 00:10:10,949 --> 00:10:08,399 um 276 00:10:14,710 --> 00:10:10,959 and and during that whole thing we 277 00:10:17,030 --> 00:10:14,720 experienced shifts of emotion erratic 278 00:10:18,470 --> 00:10:17,040 but pretty universal so one minute the 279 00:10:20,069 --> 00:10:18,480 group would be yelling at each other for 280 00:10:21,990 --> 00:10:20,079 no reason and then the next minute we'd 281 00:10:23,750 --> 00:10:22,000 be laughing about something ridiculous 282 00:10:24,949 --> 00:10:23,760 and then the next we'd totally ignore 283 00:10:27,190 --> 00:10:24,959 each other and 284 00:10:30,150 --> 00:10:27,200 it just seemed to have control over our 285 00:10:32,790 --> 00:10:30,160 emotions um without us really having any 286 00:10:34,150 --> 00:10:32,800 say sure in that uh and so this is the 287 00:10:35,269 --> 00:10:34,160 point where i started to get really sort 288 00:10:37,509 --> 00:10:35,279 of 289 00:10:39,350 --> 00:10:37,519 nervous that there was something 290 00:10:41,269 --> 00:10:39,360 sentient kind of 291 00:10:43,910 --> 00:10:41,279 uh aware of us and messing with us i 292 00:10:45,430 --> 00:10:43,920 guess and um i looked back because i 293 00:10:47,990 --> 00:10:45,440 heard something behind one of the 294 00:10:50,389 --> 00:10:48,000 vehicles that was behind my truck 295 00:10:51,750 --> 00:10:50,399 and there was this tall figure it looked 296 00:10:56,870 --> 00:10:51,760 like a human 297 00:11:00,710 --> 00:10:56,880 much taller than any human i've met 298 00:11:02,230 --> 00:11:00,720 well over seven feet tall at least and i 299 00:11:03,829 --> 00:11:02,240 just thought as a shadow person kind of 300 00:11:05,829 --> 00:11:03,839 peeking out from behind 301 00:11:07,750 --> 00:11:05,839 this truck and and just kind of looking 302 00:11:10,550 --> 00:11:07,760 at us in our direction didn't see any 303 00:11:11,590 --> 00:11:10,560 features no no eyes no no nothing like 304 00:11:14,550 --> 00:11:11,600 that 305 00:11:15,590 --> 00:11:14,560 but my boyfriend at the time uh 306 00:11:17,030 --> 00:11:15,600 you know we just kind of looked at each 307 00:11:18,069 --> 00:11:17,040 other and i said are you seeing this are 308 00:11:19,110 --> 00:11:18,079 you seeing the same thing that i'm 309 00:11:20,790 --> 00:11:19,120 seeing 310 00:11:21,829 --> 00:11:20,800 and he said he was 311 00:11:23,030 --> 00:11:21,839 except 312 00:11:25,350 --> 00:11:23,040 he's like

that because i didn't see that 316 00:11:34,949 --> 00:11:31,360 but he had seen this figure as this you 317 00:11:36,550 --> 00:11:34,959 know shadow person but it had little 318 00:11:38,790 -->

321 00:11:43,910 --> 00:11:42,399 yeah kind of flying off of it and then 322 00:11:45,590 --> 00:11:43,920 coming back and flying off of it and 323 00:11:47,670 --> 00:11:45,600 coming back and he was 324 00:11:49,110 --> 00:11:47,680 terrified and i'm just looking i'm like 325 00:11:51,670 --> 00:11:49,120 i'm not seeing what you're saying like 326 00:11:52,550 --> 00:11:51,680 what what is it i

00:11:57,440 pulls his his hand to his face like he'd 331 00:12:00,870 --> 00:11:58,880 been hit like something that slapped him 332 00:12:02,230 --> 00:12:00,880 in the face and he grabbed his his

00:13:17,670 --> 00:13:15,760 i don't know i think somebody got 370 00:13:20,150 --> 00:13:17,680 footage of that but nobody seems to be 371 00:13:21,350 --> 00:13:20,160 able to know where that footage is now 372 00:13:24,389 --> 00:13:21,360 um 373 00:13:26,069 --> 00:13:24,399 and then we focused on homestead 3 which 374 00:13:29,110 --> 00:13:26,079 i had seen earlier when we were setting 375 00:13:31,190 --> 00:13:29,120 up camp through through our different um 376 00:13:33,030 --> 00:13:31,200 optic devices and then it was gone it 377 00:13:34,550 --> 00:13:33,040 was like somebody

okay stop like 420 00:14:56,069 --> 00:14:53,040 don't mess with me this isn't funny 421 00:14:58,310 --> 00:14:56,079 i haven't gone anywhere i feel fine 422 00:15:00,550 --> 00:14:58,320 and he said no no you were gone and i 423 00:15:01,670 --> 00:15:00,560 really didn't even believe anything that 424 00:15:03,910 --> 00:15:01,680 they were saying i thought they were 425 00:15:05,750 --> 00:15:03,920 just pulling a prank on me until i 426 00:15:07,030 --> 00:15:05,760 looked over at my boots on the inside of 427 00:15:09,350 --> 00:15:07,040 the tent 428 00:15:10,870 --> 00:15:09,360 and they were covered in mud which where 429 00:15:12,790 --> 00:15:10,880 we were camping there was no water 430 00:15:14,310 --> 00:15:12,800 source there was no i mean it was dry 431 00:15:16,790 --> 00:15:14,320 there was nothing 432 00:15:19,509 --> 00:15:16,800 nothing there was no place for me to 433 00:15:21,430 --> 00:15:19,519 to step in mud um 434 00:15:23,110 --> 00:15:21,440 and 435 00:15:24,470 --> 00:15:23,120 i wouldn't know until much later many 436 00:15:26,470 --> 00:15:24,480 years down the road that there was water 437 00:15:28,790 --> 00:15:26,480 nearby it was just actually on the ranch 438 00:15:30,629 --> 00:15:28,800 there was a creek right i forget what 439 00:15:33,269 --> 00:15:30,639 it's called is it dry gulch creek yeah 440 00:15:34,629 --> 00:15:33,279 yeah it's called yep um 441 00:15:36,150 --> 00:15:34,639 but 442 00:15:38,790 --> 00:15:36,160 you know i thought okay maybe somebody 443 00:15:40,629 --> 00:15:38,800 put mud on my boots but nobody had had 444 00:15:42,550 --> 00:15:40,639 mentioned that to me as sort of evidence 445 00:15:44,550 --> 00:15:42,560 that i was gone so i kind of just went 446 00:15:46,069 --> 00:15:44,560 all right whatever 447 00:15:47,670 --> 00:15:46,079 why didn't you come looking for me if 448 00:15:49,749 --> 00:15:47,680 you thought i was gone for 90 minutes 449 00:15:51,509 --> 00:15:49,759 and and the answer was pretty pretty 450 00:15:53,430 --> 00:15:51,519 simple you know i've been able to handle 451 00:15:54,550 --> 00:15:53,440 myself in a lot scarier situations they 452 00:15:56,470 --> 00:15:54,560 thought maybe i just had to use the 453 00:15:58,629 --> 00:15:56,480 restroom and they were all so tired they 454 00:16:00,470 --> 00:15:58,639 just went back to sleep and so that 455 00:16:01,430 --> 00:16:00,480 seemed reasonable to me 456 00:16:02,870 --> 00:16:01,440 and 457 00:16:04,230 --> 00:16:02,880 the next day 458 00:16:06,710 --> 00:16:04,240 that same day when i had woken up and 459 00:16:08,710 --> 00:16:06,720 was told i had been gone 460 00:16:10,310 --> 00:16:08,720 we decided to hike skinwalker ridge as a 461 00:16:11,269 --> 00:16:10,320 group 462 00:16:14,150 --> 00:16:11,279 which 463 00:16:15,670 --> 00:16:14,160 i did but i did it without any sort of 464 00:16:17,509 --> 00:16:15,680 it's like i had boundless energy it was 465 00:16:19,829 --> 00:16:17,519 the strangest thing i i 466 00:16:21,430 --> 00:16:19,839 hadn't hiked a lot back then i do now 467 00:16:22,870 --> 00:16:21,440 but i didn't get out of breath the sun 468 00:16:25,110 --> 00:16:22,880 didn't bother me didn't get sunburned 469 00:16:27,430 --> 00:16:25,120 which i'm totally susceptible to 470 00:16:29,030 --> 00:16:27,440 didn't need water didn't need resting 471 00:16:29,749 --> 00:16:29,040 none of my muscles ached it was just 472 00:16:34,470 --> 00:16:29,759 like 473 00:16:36,470 --> 00:16:34,480 could have done anything that day and 474 00:16:38,310 --> 00:16:36,480 we saw some strange 475 00:16:39,829 --> 00:16:38,320 movement could have been red dogs could 476 00:16:41,350 --> 00:16:39,839 have been something i don't know what it 477 00:16:43,670 --> 00:16:41,360 was but something running along the 478 00:16:46,230 --> 00:16:43,680 ridge in the middle of the day 479 00:16:47,590 --> 00:16:46,240 and when we called it you know to head 480 00:16:48,710 --> 00:16:47,600 back to salt lake i thought that would 481 00:16:49,829 --> 00:16:48,720 be the end of 482 00:16:52,629 --> 00:16:49,839 my 483 00:16:54,230 --> 00:16:52,639 skin walker ranch experience 484 00:16:57,030 --> 00:16:54,240 you know it wasn't everybody had their 485 00:16:58,550 --> 00:16:57,040 own versions of events of that night and 486 00:17:00,230 --> 00:16:58,560 they didn't really 487 00:17:01,829 --> 00:17:00,240 match up it caused some confliction 488 00:17:04,309 --> 00:17:01,839 between the group and 489 00:17:06,549 --> 00:17:04,319 and you know i went back off to do my 490 00:17:08,549 --> 00:17:06,559 other investigations and and 491 00:17:10,789 --> 00:17:08,559 my work and i'm a mom to twin daughters 492 00:17:12,549 --> 00:17:10,799 uh one with special needs so my focus 493 00:17:14,470 --> 00:17:12,559 was kind of pulled away and 494 00:17:16,549 --> 00:17:14,480 about life until 495 00:17:18,870 --> 00:17:16,559 i was in i believe i was in texas at the 496 00:17:20,309 --> 00:17:18,880 time i had just i was visiting utah when 497 00:17:21,909 --> 00:17:20,319 i visited the ranch and then i was 498 00:17:22,949 --> 00:17:21,919 living in texas and 499 00:17:24,390 --> 00:17:22,959 um 500 00:17:26,309 --> 00:17:24,400 when i was back in texas i was in 501 00:17:29,029 --> 00:17:26,319 walmart with 502 00:17:30,549 --> 00:17:29,039 my twin daughters they were young and 503 00:17:32,870 --> 00:17:30,559 just shopping 504 00:17:34,390 --> 00:17:32,880 and i two guys came up to me in an aisle 505 00:17:35,590 --> 00:17:34,400 one of the food aisles 506 00:17:37,110 --> 00:17:35,600 and they look like they might have been 507 00:17:39,350 --> 00:17:37,120 like mormon missionary types but they 508 00:17:40,549 --> 00:17:39,360 didn't have the name tags 509 00:17:42,710 --> 00:17:40,559 they just said hey are you april 510 00:17:44,310 --> 00:17:42,720 slaughter and every once in a while not

thought maybe they got 514 00:17:51,830 --> 00:17:49,200 a book or something and 515 00:17:53,909 --> 00:17:51,840 so i said yeah i made a slaughter 516 00:17:55,029 --> 00:17:53,919 and they said

523 00:18:07,510 --> 00:18:06,400 stood very close to me and said do not 524 00:18:09,350 --> 00:18:07,520 ever 525 00:18:11,110 --> 00:18:09,360 go back 526 00:18:12,470 --> 00:18:11,120 to the ranch again and then they walked 527 00:18:14,390 --> 00:18:12,480 off and 528 00:18:16,870 --> 00:18:14,400 my mom instincts were just put 529 00:18:18,789 --> 00:18:16,880 myself between them and my kids so i 530 00:18:20,789 --> 00:18:18,799 just i didn't chase after these people i 531 00:18:23,029 --> 00:18:20,799 didn't i just was floored i'm like i'm 532 00:18:25,909 --> 00:18:23,039 in texas this

it's kind of come full circle it's a 548 00:18:58,549 --> 00:18:56,720 strange a strange thing to have had that 549 00:19:00,310 --> 00:18:58,559 experience and nobody really 550 00:19:02,150 --> 00:19:00,320 pay much attention to it until all of a 551 00:19:04,310 --> 00:19:02,160 sudden now people are like dying to hear 552 00:19:05,510 --> 00:19:04,320 the story so that's what happened to me 553 00:19:07,909 --> 00:19:05,520 wow 554 00:19:10,630 --> 00:19:07,919 and you know the area is a beautiful 555 00:19:13,750 --> 00:19:10,640 mystery like that like exactly like you 556 00:19:15,110 --> 00:19:13,760 said it it it comes full circle in a way 557 00:19:18,070 --> 00:19:15,120 and 558 00:19:20,230 --> 00:19:18,080 it is fascinating to me especially that 559 00:19:23,430 --> 00:19:20,240 you had so much energy the next day you 560 00:19:25,750 --> 00:19:23,440 know that is so cool and so uh so so 561 00:19:28,710 --> 00:19:25,760 similar to like other other cases i've 562 00:19:30,710 --> 00:19:28,720 heard and you're right about the 563 00:19:32,630 --> 00:19:30,720 perspective being so key from the 564 00:19:35,110 --> 00:19:32,640 observation perspective like 565 00:19:37,350 --> 00:19:35,120 each individual when when something goes 566 00:19:40,070 --> 00:19:37,360 down let's just say it that way it's 567 00:19:41,029 --> 00:19:40,080 amazing how different the memories can 568 00:19:41,909 --> 00:19:41,039 be 569 00:19:44,470 --> 00:19:41,919 um 570 00:19:46,310 --> 00:19:44,480 and you know i've i can relate with that 571 00:19:49,430 --> 00:19:46,320 and it's interesting 572 00:19:51,750 --> 00:19:49,440 that everybody had similar experiences 573 00:19:53,029 --> 00:19:51,760 but not similar recollections of the 574 00:19:54,950 --> 00:19:53,039 experiences 575 00:19:57,110 --> 00:19:54,960 did uh 576 00:19:58,630 --> 00:19:57,120 did you happen to go i know some may 577 00:20:01,510 --> 00:19:58,640 have gone through hypnosis did you 578 00:20:04,310 --> 00:20:01,520 happen to do the hypnosis at all april 579 00:20:05,590 --> 00:20:04,320 you know i didn't um and it's not it's 580 00:20:07,110 --> 00:20:05,600 not because 581 00:20:10,630 --> 00:20:07,120 you know i'm really afraid of it 582 00:20:12,149 --> 00:20:10,640 unlocking anything i just i am 583 00:20:13,590 --> 00:20:12,159 it's weird when it comes to the ranch i 584 00:20:16,230 --> 00:20:13,600 just have this feeling that at some 585 00:20:17,750 --> 00:20:16,240 point it's going to reveal whatever 586 00:20:20,310 --> 00:20:17,760 whatever happened to me will reveal 587 00:20:22,310 --> 00:20:20,320 itself in some way um hopefully not a 588 00:20:23,909 --> 00:20:22,320 traumatic one i just don't want to 589 00:20:24,950 --> 00:20:23,919 have to go through something 590 00:20:27,110 --> 00:20:24,960 um 591 00:20:28,549 --> 00:20:27,120 that 592 00:20:31,190 --> 00:20:28,559 you know isn't isn't my brain isn't 593 00:20:32,870 --> 00:20:31,200 ready to really kind of grapple with um 594 00:20:34,630 --> 00:20:32,880 yeah and that's you know a lot of people 595 00:20:36,149 --> 00:20:34,640 that have offered to do that i've 596 00:20:38,310 --> 00:20:36,159 undergone different types of experiments 597 00:20:40,390 --> 00:20:38,320 as far as like emdr and 598 00:20:42,230 --> 00:20:40,400 and different psychotherapy things to 599 00:20:45,029 --> 00:20:42,240 just try and figure some things out but 600 00:20:46,870 --> 00:20:45,039 as far as hypnosis goes i just never 601 00:20:49,830 --> 00:20:46,880 never did that now my boyfriend at the 602 00:20:51,430 --> 00:20:49,840 time like i said who who had experienced 603 00:20:52,710 --> 00:20:51,440 this strange thing that he said flew 604 00:20:53,830 --> 00:20:52,720 into his face 605 00:20:55,590 --> 00:20:53,840 he um 606 00:20:57,190 --> 00:20:55,600 i think he had undergone some stuff but 607 00:20:59,430 --> 00:20:57,200 we didn't really keep in touch we broke 608 00:21:01,190 --> 00:20:59,440 up fairly quickly after that experience 609 00:21:02,789 --> 00:21:01,200 and sure it wouldn't be until a couple 610 00:21:05,029 --> 00:21:02,799 years after that 611 00:21:07,510 --> 00:21:05,039 that we reconnected and sat down at a 612 00:21:08,710 --> 00:21:07,520 meal where he told me that uh 613 00:21:11,110 --> 00:21:08,720 he was 614 00:21:13,270 --> 00:21:11,120 suffering from brain cancer and he 615 00:21:15,510 --> 00:21:13,280 attributed it entirely 616 00:21:17,750 --> 00:21:15,520 to what happened at the ranch and his 617 00:21:19,270 --> 00:21:17,760 his quote-unquote chaos magic that he 618 00:21:20,070 --> 00:21:19,280 had done and that he had regretted doing 619 00:21:21,750 --> 00:21:20,080 that 620 00:21:22,870 --> 00:21:21,760 uh which was really frightening to have 621 00:21:24,149 --> 00:21:22,880 somebody 622 00:21:26,149 --> 00:21:24,159 say that you know they thought that the 623 00:21:28,789 --> 00:21:26,159 ranch kind of clapped back at them and 624 00:21:32,070 --> 00:21:28,799 um he actually did succumb to his his 625 00:21:33,750 --> 00:21:32,080 cancer a few years ago so yeah but he 626 00:21:35,190 --> 00:21:33,760 believed at least he told me he believed 627 00:21:37,350 --> 00:21:35,200 that it was because of what had happened 628 00:21:39,029 --> 00:21:37,360 out at the ranch and and you know he 629 00:21:40,470 --> 00:21:39,039 wanted to share more details about his 630 00:21:41,990 --> 00:21:40,480 experience with me i just wasn't really 631 00:21:42,950 --> 00:21:42,000 interested in hearing it i put the ranch 632 00:21:45,110 --> 00:21:42,960 kind of 633 00:21:47,350 --> 00:21:45,120 um in the back of my mind and it's in a 634 00:21:48,789 --> 00:21:47,360 lot of ways uh it's still it's still 635 00:21:50,710 --> 00:21:48,799 there um 636 00:21:52,390 --> 00:21:50,720 it's always there hopefully if at some 637 00:21:55,029 --> 00:21:52,400 point you know there's some purpose in 638 00:21:56,549 --> 00:21:55,039 having me know what happened to me or if 639 00:21:57,990 --> 00:21:56,559 i really did go missing then then i'll 640 00:22:00,390 --> 00:21:58,000 find that out on my own i just don't 641 00:22:02,310 --> 00:22:00,400 want to poke the bear i guess yeah what 642 00:22:03,669 --> 00:22:02,320 i'm trying to say and he's one of my 643 00:22:04,950 --> 00:22:03,679 heroes 644 00:22:07,190 --> 00:22:04,960 he 645 00:22:10,230 --> 00:22:07,200 is 646 00:22:14,070 --> 00:22:10,240 one of my heroes in a lot of senses but 647 00:22:16,470 --> 00:22:14,080 yes um a very tragic case and yeah there 648 00:22:17,669 --> 00:22:16,480 is injury that can take place and i've 649 00:22:20,070 --> 00:22:17,679 heard from 650 00:22:21,830 --> 00:22:20,080 without naming names very sure 651 00:22:23,270 --> 00:22:21,840 intelligent people that you know each 652 00:22:25,590 --> 00:22:23,280 time you have an experience like that 653 00:22:27,430 --> 00:22:25,600 you give a little piece of yourself 654 00:22:29,430 --> 00:22:27,440 and 655 00:22:33,590 --> 00:22:29,440 um i think it's really fascinating that 656 00:22:35,190 --> 00:22:33,600 you guys saw this rectangular uh 657 00:22:37,190 --> 00:22:35,200 i don't want to call it a craft or a 658 00:22:38,950 --> 00:22:37,200 voice it's blackout yeah it was just 659 00:22:42,230 --> 00:22:38,960 there was nothing with a void 660 00:22:44,950 --> 00:22:42,240 right this is fascinating and and the 661 00:22:47,510 --> 00:22:44,960 area can be much like a void and 662 00:22:49,270 --> 00:22:47,520 you know as you said uh getting pulled 663 00:22:52,230 --> 00:22:49,280 over on the way up there that's very 664 00:22:53,990 --> 00:22:52,240 precognitive and a lot of uh people 665 00:22:55,990 --> 00:22:54,000 smarter than myself have called it a 666 00:22:57,350 --> 00:22:56,000 precognitive intelligence that roams a 667 00:22:59,190 --> 00:22:57,360 landscape and 668 00:23:01,350 --> 00:22:59,200 it's almost i heard someone else call it 669 00:23:03,990 --> 00:23:01,360 a pre-cellular replicon which is like 670 00:23:09,350 --> 00:23:04,000 what but yeah yeah yeah there's 671 00:23:11,350 --> 00:23:09,360 something it appears as if something can 672 00:23:13,750 --> 00:23:11,360 manifest itself and not only that but 673 00:23:16,149 --> 00:23:13,760 adjust space and time in a way where it 674 00:23:17,510 --> 00:23:16,159 knows what you're going to do before you 675 00:23:18,950 --> 00:23:17,520 do it 676 00:23:21,190 --> 00:23:18,960 did you have any experiences with 677 00:23:23,669 --> 00:23:21,200 anything like that 678 00:23:25,750 --> 00:23:23,679 no you know other than being pulled over 679 00:23:27,909 --> 00:23:25,760 uh and me kind of recognizing at the 680 00:23:29,669 --> 00:23:27,919 time that that was strange uh because 681 00:23:32,149 --> 00:23:29,679 like i said we weren't breaking any laws 682 00:23:33,590 --> 00:23:32,159 and and and two i forgot to mention all 683 00:23:34,789 --> 00:23:33,600 of us you know we didn't want to be seen 684 00:23:36,710 --> 00:23:34,799 when we were out there at night so we're 685 00:23:38,470 --> 00:23:36,720 dressed in black we're you know there's 686 00:23:40,390 --> 00:23:38,480 cases of equipment in my car like 687 00:23:41,909 --> 00:23:40,400 there's all these indications that we're 688 00:23:43,430 --> 00:23:41,919 up to something right and so when the 689 00:23:46,149 --> 00:23:43,440 police officers 690 00:23:47,750 --> 00:23:46,159 um asked us you know where we were going 691 00:23:49,909 --> 00:23:47,760 or what we were doing that they didn't 692 00:23:51,990 --> 00:23:49,919 want to look into anything they didn't 693 00:23:53,990 --> 00:23:52,000 ask us about our it was really strange 694 00:23:55,990 --> 00:23:54,000 they kind of were like uh-huh okay like 695 00:23:57,990 --> 00:23:56,000 just letting us know that that we were 696 00:23:59,110 --> 00:23:58,000 being watched and even the entire time 697 00:24:01,590 --> 00:23:59,120 we were out 698 00:24:04,070 --> 00:24:01,600 on the perimeter of the ranch we had 699 00:24:06,549 --> 00:24:04,080 eyes on us we all could feel it um we 700 00:24:08,149 --> 00:24:06,559 had locals i believe trying to warn us 701 00:24:09,990 --> 00:24:08,159 to get out of the area by 702 00:24:12,149 --> 00:24:10,000 driving their trucks and their dogs were 703 00:24:15,190 --> 00:24:12,159 barking at us and it was just it was 704 00:24:17,510 --> 00:24:15,200 just a really sort of um the energy 705 00:24:19,350 --> 00:24:17,520 at the time and i just i didn't feel 706 00:24:20,470 --> 00:24:19,360 entirely comfortable i wasn't scared per 707 00:24:22,149 --> 00:24:20,480 se but it 708 00:24:23,830 --> 00:24:22,159 it just seemed to know 709 00:24:25,750 --> 00:24:23,840 like with the emotions the fluctuation 710 00:24:27,909 --> 00:24:25,760 of emotions it just seemed to have fun 711 00:24:29,269 --> 00:24:27,919 it i don't know what it is it's super 712 00:24:32,149 --> 00:24:29,279 heavy i like to just call it the ranch 713 00:24:34,310 --> 00:24:32,159 because that's just how i see it but it 714 00:24:35,430 --> 00:24:34,320 just seemed to know how to manipulate us 715 00:24:36,549 --> 00:24:35,440 and how to 716 00:24:38,470 --> 00:24:36,559 um 717 00:24:40,950 --> 00:24:38,480 affect us in different ways at the same 718 00:24:43,510 --> 00:24:40,960 time and i had never experienced that 719 00:24:44,950 --> 00:24:43,520 before or afterward in any other sort of 720 00:24:46,950 --> 00:24:44,960 investigation 721 00:24:48,549 --> 00:24:46,960 of anything supernatural so 722 00:24:49,830 --> 00:24:48,559 to me the ranch is very specific that 723 00:24:51,750 --> 00:24:49,840 way that it's 724 00:24:54,549 --> 00:24:51,760 not only is every kind of phenomenon 725 00:24:56,630 --> 00:24:54,559 reported out there 726 00:24:59,510 --> 00:24:56,640 but it seems to be able to 727 00:25:00,789 --> 00:24:59,520 manifest itself as something that 728 00:25:02,230 --> 00:25:00,799 would scare someone in different ways 729 00:25:03,510 --> 00:25:02,240 like i've been asked what what do i 730 00:25:05,830 --> 00:25:03,520 think is happening out on the ranch what 731 00:25:06,789 --> 00:25:05,840 do i think it is the secret out there 732 00:25:09,110 --> 00:25:06,799 and 733 00:25:11,430 --> 00:25:09,120 my idea isn't like everyone else's at 734 00:25:13,269 --> 00:25:11,440 least as far as i know um they want to 735 00:25:15,669 --> 00:25:13,279 tackle it from scientific views or 736 00:25:17,750 --> 00:25:15,679 whatnot what i believe it is 737 00:25:19,110 --> 00:25:17,760 is there something out there that likes 738 00:25:20,710 --> 00:25:19,120 to manifest 739 00:25:22,070 --> 00:25:20,720 your greatest fear so if you're scared 740 00:25:23,350 --> 00:25:22,080 of seeing little green men that's what 741 00:25:25,590 --> 00:25:23,360 you'll see if you're scared of seeing 742 00:25:28,310 --> 00:25:25,600 dire wolves that's what you'll see if 743 00:25:29,430 --> 00:25:28,320 you're scared of uh you know going 744 00:25:31,909 --> 00:25:29,440 missing in the middle of the night that 745 00:25:34,549 --> 00:25:31,919 might happen and so i think i think it 746 00:25:36,789 --> 00:25:34,559 just finds a way to 747 00:25:38,950 --> 00:25:36,799 to manipulate your fears or your 748 00:25:40,950 --> 00:25:38,960 anxieties and and then people assign 749 00:25:43,750 --> 00:25:40,960 things like oh it's a huge ufo place and 750 00:25:45,830 --> 00:25:43,760 that may be there may be actual ufos out 751 00:25:47,830 --> 00:25:45,840 there i have never seen one that's not 752 00:25:49,830 --> 00:25:47,840 my experience 753 00:25:52,149 --> 00:25:49,840 but what i've seen are things that did 754 00:25:53,350 --> 00:25:52,159 kind of rattle me and then you know the 755 00:25:55,669 --> 00:25:53,360 people that were with me saw different 756 00:25:56,710 --> 00:25:55,679 things they even reported seeing a giant 757 00:25:58,789 --> 00:25:56,720 bird 758 00:26:00,630 --> 00:25:58,799 i i've never seen that 759 00:26:03,350 --> 00:26:00,640 but they said it was like pterodactyl 760 00:26:04,789 --> 00:26:03,360 huge this this bird that they saw flying 761 00:26:06,149 --> 00:26:04,799 through the sky and no one had ever told 762 00:26:06,870 --> 00:26:06,159 me that at the time that they'd seen 763 00:26:11,510 --> 00:26:06,880 that 764 00:26:12,470 --> 00:26:11,520 can't like i said i can't discount 765 00:26:14,549 --> 00:26:12,480 um 766 00:26:16,310 --> 00:26:14,559 what they were seeing i think whatever 767 00:26:17,510 --> 00:26:16,320 knew we were coming kind of thought well 768 00:26:19,269 --> 00:26:17,520 these are the games i'm going to play 769 00:26:22,070 --> 00:26:19,279 and this is how it's going to play out 770 00:26:23,669 --> 00:26:22,080 and then afterward i was warned never to 771 00:26:25,269 --> 00:26:23,679 do it again so 772 00:26:27,590 --> 00:26:25,279 you know it's just it's a unique 773 00:26:29,669 --> 00:26:27,600 experience it's a unique place um i know 774 00:26:30,950 --> 00:26:29,679 there are other places claiming to be 775 00:26:32,390 --> 00:26:30,960 like that in different parts of the 776 00:26:34,710 --> 00:26:32,400 country but 777 00:26:36,310 --> 00:26:34,720 i would have to visit them to to even 778 00:26:38,149 --> 00:26:36,320 half believe that that could be possible 779 00:26:39,190 --> 00:26:38,159 because this place is just off the 780 00:26:41,510 --> 00:26:39,200 charts 781 00:26:43,830 --> 00:26:41,520 crazy 782 00:26:45,750 --> 00:26:43,840 it's dynamite and i agree 783 00:26:47,510 --> 00:26:45,760 i have a gentleman that's coming on the 784 00:26:49,269 --> 00:26:47,520 podcast here on 785 00:26:50,390 --> 00:26:49,279 shortly his name is 786 00:26:52,789 --> 00:26:50,400 uh 787 00:26:54,149 --> 00:26:52,799 james trey hudson and he did something 788 00:26:55,990 --> 00:26:54,159 called the meadows project and like you 789 00:26:57,029 --> 00:26:56,000 said there's a lot of places that claim 790 00:27:00,789 --> 00:26:57,039 to be 791 00:27:03,830 --> 00:27:00,799 similar to skinwalker ranch and uh 792 00:27:07,750 --> 00:27:03,840 but i'm with you i i agree to some 793 00:27:11,029 --> 00:27:07,760 extent that it exponentially multiplies 794 00:27:11,830 --> 00:27:11,039 on phobias or belief systems yeah for 795 00:27:15,110 --> 00:27:11,840 sure 796 00:27:17,350 --> 00:27:15,120 it is it it is definitely a precognitive 797 00:27:18,549 --> 00:27:17,360 intelligence as many have called it in 798 00:27:19,430 --> 00:27:18,559 the past 799 00:27:21,029 --> 00:27:19,440 and 800 00:27:23,269 --> 00:27:21,039 uh you know 801 00:27:25,590 --> 00:27:23,279 it's interesting i loved what you said 802 00:27:27,190 --> 00:27:25,600 about you know did somebody do this 803 00:27:29,029 --> 00:27:27,200 because they knew we were coming because 804 00:27:31,430 --> 00:27:29,039 it's like a display 805 00:27:35,190 --> 00:27:31,440 and i've had people 806 00:27:37,190 --> 00:27:35,200 totally like you said uh go to the area 807 00:27:38,950 --> 00:27:37,200 let's just say they went to the area 808 00:27:41,029 --> 00:27:38,960 very skeptical 809 00:27:43,430 --> 00:27:41,039 and during the 810 00:27:45,190 --> 00:27:43,440 experience that they had they 811 00:27:47,590 --> 00:27:45,200 they finally looked at me and said this 812 00:27:48,710 --> 00:27:47,600 this would have cost millions of dollars 813 00:27:51,269 --> 00:27:48,720 to 814 00:27:52,149 --> 00:27:51,279 do this kind of display and it's like 815 00:27:52,950 --> 00:27:52,159 well 816 00:27:59,830 --> 00:27:52,960 you know 817 00:28:01,350 --> 00:27:59,840 and uh they think but it's it's hard you 818 00:28:02,389 --> 00:28:01,360 have to go into it as a

areas that is 822 00:28:11,750 --> 00:28:09,840 so dynamic and dynamite that it it there 823 00:28:14,830 --> 00:28:11,760 is definitely an exchange that takes 824 00:28:17,750 --> 00:28:14,840 place between the display and observer 825 00:28:19,190 --> 00:28:17,760 um let's go into some other stuff so you 826 00:28:21,590 --> 00:28:19,200 were in texas for quite a while and 827 00:28:23,430 --> 00:28:21,600 you've done a lot of very deep 828 00:28:26,789 --> 00:28:23,440 investigation as much as i would love to 829 00:28:28,470 --> 00:28:26,799 stay on the skinwalker aspect forever 830 00:28:29,909 --> 00:28:28,480 tell us about some of the interesting 831 00:28:32,149 --> 00:28:29,919 areas in texas and what you've 832 00:28:33,430 --> 00:28:32,159 encountered there as well 833 00:28:34,870 --> 00:28:33,440 well uh 834 00:28:37,350 --> 00:28:34,880 two things about texas that first come 835 00:28:38,549 --> 00:28:37,360 to mind in the 25 plus years that i've 836 00:28:40,950 --> 00:28:38,559 been doing 837 00:28:43,269 --> 00:28:40,960 paranormal or spirit investigation 838 00:28:46,310 --> 00:28:43,279 i had never until that point had a 839 00:28:47,669 --> 00:28:46,320 demonic case which you know reality tv 840 00:28:50,070 --> 00:28:47,679 would have you believe they happen more 841 00:28:53,430 --> 00:28:50,080 often than not but they don't right i 842 00:28:56,389 --> 00:28:53,440 only had the one case uh and it was in a 843 00:28:57,990 --> 00:28:56,399 a very rural part of texas in a in a 844 00:28:59,190 --> 00:28:58,000 mobile home that had been refurbished 845 00:29:01,029 --> 00:28:59,200 and um 846 00:29:03,510 --> 00:29:01,039 a family had 847 00:29:05,190 --> 00:29:03,520 they had a little girl that uh she was 848 00:29:07,029 --> 00:29:05,200 four or five at the time 849 00:29:08,870 --> 00:29:07,039 and she started saying that it started 850 00:29:11,350 --> 00:29:08,880 slowly but she she started seeing 851 00:29:13,190 --> 00:29:11,360 another little girl in the house 852 00:29:14,630 --> 00:29:13,200 and she was making friends with her and 853 00:29:16,630 --> 00:29:14,640 talking and her parents thought she just 854 00:29:17,830 --> 00:29:16,640 had an imaginary friend and 855 00:29:20,310 --> 00:29:17,840 and then it just sort of kind of 856 00:29:22,549 --> 00:29:20,320 escalated this over you know a year's 857 00:29:24,789 --> 00:29:22,559 time this little girl began 858 00:29:25,990 --> 00:29:24,799 getting physically accosted at night and 859 00:29:28,470 --> 00:29:26,000 her parents were afraid that they were 860 00:29:30,789 --> 00:29:28,480 going to be you know accused of abusing 861 00:29:33,269 --> 00:29:30,799 her uh and so they you know they put up 862 00:29:34,950 --> 00:29:33,279 cameras they did all kinds of things to 863 00:29:37,990 --> 00:29:34,960 try and and see what was happening with 864 00:29:39,830 --> 00:29:38,000 her and you know there was a point where 865 00:29:41,350 --> 00:29:39,840 several nights in a row all of the the 866 00:29:42,950 --> 00:29:41,360 daughter's bedroom furniture would end 867 00:29:44,070 --> 00:29:42,960 up against the door by morning and 868 00:29:46,549 --> 00:29:44,080 there's no way a four-year-old 869 00:29:48,070 --> 00:29:46,559 five-year-old girl could do that 870 00:29:50,149 --> 00:29:48,080 so they were they were pretty desperate 871 00:29:52,230 --> 00:29:50,159 nobody seemed to believe uh what was 872 00:29:53,269 --> 00:29:52,240 happening and so investigating that case 873 00:29:55,750 --> 00:29:53,279 um 874 00:29:57,350 --> 00:29:55,760 sadly i mean it was it was pretty 875 00:29:59,190 --> 00:29:57,360 obvious that whatever there was was 876 00:30:00,870 --> 00:29:59,200 pretty um 877 00:30:02,630 --> 00:30:00,880 i hate to use the word demonic but it 878 00:30:04,470 --> 00:30:02,640 was i mean it was very aggressive it was 879 00:30:06,470 --> 00:30:04,480 very dark it was very 880 00:30:08,470 --> 00:30:06,480 um 881 00:30:10,149 --> 00:30:08,480 it wanted to put on a show and frighten 882 00:30:13,190 --> 00:30:10,159 people and and my team 883 00:30:15,269 --> 00:30:13,200 did that uh quite a bit and you know we 884 00:30:17,190 --> 00:30:15,279 got all kinds of audio of 885 00:30:19,590 --> 00:30:17,200 different voices talking at the same 886 00:30:21,110 --> 00:30:19,600 time saying different things and and we 887 00:30:23,190 --> 00:30:21,120 saw people walking up and down the 888 00:30:26,549 --> 00:30:23,200 hallways while we were in there and it 889 00:30:28,070 --> 00:30:26,559 was just a very oppressive type feeling 890 00:30:29,590 --> 00:30:28,080 and you know when when we told the 891 00:30:31,510 --> 00:30:29,600 family we really do think you have a 892 00:30:33,909 --> 00:30:31,520 legitimate problem 893 00:30:36,789 --> 00:30:33,919 um you know we reached out to every 894 00:30:39,590 --> 00:30:36,799 faith-based organization every single 895 00:30:40,870 --> 00:30:39,600 one whether it be you know catholicism 896 00:30:43,029 --> 00:30:40,880 buddhism 897 00:30:44,630 --> 00:30:43,039 mormonism all of these different 898 00:30:46,549 --> 00:30:44,640 faith-based systems and nobody was 899 00:30:47,510 --> 00:30:46,559 willing to help that family not a single 900 00:30:49,510 --> 00:30:47,520 one of them 901 00:30:51,029 --> 00:30:49,520 right or willing to go in there and you 902 00:30:52,630 --> 00:30:51,039 know do whatever whether it's called a 903 00:30:54,710 --> 00:30:52,640 blessing exorcism 904 00:30:56,070 --> 00:30:54,720 uh clearing whatever nobody was willing 905 00:30:57,029 --> 00:30:56,080 to help them and so in doing the 906 00:30:58,870 --> 00:30:57,039 research 907 00:31:00,230 --> 00:30:58,880 behind their home because it has only 908 00:31:01,909 --> 00:31:00,240 happened when they moved into this 909 00:31:03,590 --> 00:31:01,919 refurbished 910 00:31:08,789 --> 00:31:03,600 mobile home 911 00:31:13,990 --> 00:31:10,630 another place in texas where had been 912 00:31:15,909 --> 00:31:14,000 used as a prostitution den a child sex 913 00:31:17,590 --> 00:31:15,919 trafficking ring 914 00:31:20,950 --> 00:31:17,600 all kinds of drugs happened a suspected 915 00:31:22,070 --> 00:31:20,960 murder had happened in that house and 916 00:31:23,269 --> 00:31:22,080 according to the law at the time they 917 00:31:24,630 --> 00:31:23,279 didn't have to disclose that by 918 00:31:25,909 --> 00:31:24,640 refurbishing they could just refurbish 919 00:31:28,230 --> 00:31:25,919 it and sell it and they'd try to tell 920 00:31:30,070 --> 00:31:28,240 anybody what had occurred in the home 921 00:31:32,710 --> 00:31:30,080 and so we presented that information to 922 00:31:33,590 --> 00:31:32,720 the family and uh along with the fact 923 00:31:35,269 --> 00:31:33,600 that 924 00:31:37,350 --> 00:31:35,279 nobody was willing to help try to rid 925 00:31:38,149 --> 00:31:37,360 their home of whatever was happening 926 00:31:42,230 --> 00:31:38,159 and 927 00:31:44,149 --> 00:31:42,240 i never found out if the family that 928 00:31:46,070 --> 00:31:44,159 moved into it had an issue but the 929 00:31:47,990 --> 00:31:46,080 little girl was was fine nothing 930 00:31:48,950 --> 00:31:48,000 followed her and so far she's had a 931 00:31:51,110 --> 00:31:48,960 great 932 00:31:52,389 --> 00:31:51,120 uh calm life growing up after they've 933 00:31:54,070 --> 00:31:52,399 left that house but that was the only 934 00:31:55,830 --> 00:31:54,080 demonic case 935 00:31:57,350 --> 00:31:55,840 that i've ever 936 00:31:58,630 --> 00:31:57,360 encountered i've had negative cases but 937 00:31:59,990 --> 00:31:58,640 those are two distinctly different 938 00:32:02,070 --> 00:32:00,000 things you know just because something's 939 00:32:03,669 --> 00:32:02,080 negative doesn't make it evil so 940 00:32:05,110 --> 00:32:03,679 i think that's a huge distinction that 941 00:32:07,110 --> 00:32:05,120 people need to learn especially in the 942 00:32:08,710 --> 00:32:07,120 spirit communication and 943 00:32:09,830 --> 00:32:08,720 investigation realm just because 944 00:32:12,070 --> 00:32:09,840 something is negative doesn't 945 00:32:13,430 --> 00:32:12,080 necessarily mean it's of the devil yeah 946 00:32:15,110 --> 00:32:13,440 because i know a lot of people that are 947 00:32:16,630 --> 00:32:15,120 super negative it doesn't mean they're 948 00:32:18,310 --> 00:32:16,640 people it doesn't mean they're bad 949 00:32:21,269 --> 00:32:18,320 people right but you know other than 950 00:32:23,110 --> 00:32:21,279 that my the my most profound case in 951 00:32:26,830 --> 00:32:23,120 texas which 952 00:32:29,669 --> 00:32:26,840 i'm super grateful that i had um was 953 00:32:31,110 --> 00:32:29,679 i it took me a long time to develop a 954 00:32:32,710 --> 00:32:31,120 relationship with the texas department 955 00:32:34,630 --> 00:32:32,720 of criminal justice but i really wanted 956 00:32:35,750 --> 00:32:34,640 to do that because i'd heard 957 00:32:37,990 --> 00:32:35,760 that 958 00:32:40,230 --> 00:32:38,000 the old death row and the current 959 00:32:41,750 --> 00:32:40,240 execution chamber was haunted 960 00:32:43,430 --> 00:32:41,760 so of course i wanted to investigate 961 00:32:45,669 --> 00:32:43,440 that and it took me a number of years to 962 00:32:47,509 --> 00:32:45,679 gain their trust but they did actually 963 00:32:49,269 --> 00:32:47,519 allow me into their working prisons 964 00:32:51,110 --> 00:32:49,279 called the walls or huntsville 965 00:32:53,269 --> 00:32:51,120 penitentiary in huntsville texas the 966 00:32:56,310 --> 00:32:53,279 oldest prison in the state 967 00:32:58,950 --> 00:32:56,320 and it's still where they um execute 968 00:33:01,350 --> 00:32:58,960 people today it's the most um 969 00:33:03,430 --> 00:33:01,360 active chamber in the country 970 00:33:06,230 --> 00:33:03,440 and so they walked me in and they locked 971 00:33:07,509 --> 00:33:06,240 me in for a night nice 972 00:33:09,750 --> 00:33:07,519 and it's a working prison so you can 973 00:33:11,590 --> 00:33:09,760 imagine they walk me through the yard of 974 00:33:13,430 --> 00:33:11,600 all these inmates working out and things 975 00:33:15,750 --> 00:33:13,440 are being yelled at me and whatever and 976 00:33:17,990 --> 00:33:15,760 i'm sure and the guards on the ground 977 00:33:19,909 --> 00:33:18,000 don't have weapons only the guards up up 978 00:33:21,909 --> 00:33:19,919 on the turrets have have weapons in case 979 00:33:23,990 --> 00:33:21,919 they get overtaken so i mean i didn't 980 00:33:26,789 --> 00:33:24,000 really feel protected but i i got locked 981 00:33:29,909 --> 00:33:26,799 in and and got to spend some time 982 00:33:33,509 --> 00:33:29,919 in the old death row uh hearing 983 00:33:36,149 --> 00:33:33,519 screaming i experienced apparitions i 984 00:33:38,710 --> 00:33:36,159 it just it smells 985 00:33:40,149 --> 00:33:38,720 just crazy activity happened in there uh 986 00:33:41,269 --> 00:33:40,159 and then they took me to the the current 987 00:33:42,549 --> 00:33:41,279 death house 988 00:33:44,870 --> 00:33:42,559 where i think just two or three days 989 00:33:47,830 --> 00:33:44,880 before they had executed someone whoa 990 00:33:48,549 --> 00:33:47,840 and uh left me in there for a night 991 00:33:50,710 --> 00:33:48,559 so 992 00:33:53,110 --> 00:33:50,720 it was it was terrifying um 993 00:33:55,110 --> 00:33:53,120 sadly there hasn't been much of a 994 00:33:56,789 --> 00:33:55,120 follow-up with that because 995 00:33:58,389 --> 00:33:56,799 a certain and without naming names a 996 00:33:59,909 --> 00:33:58,399 certain television show had read an 997 00:34:02,310 --> 00:33:59,919 article i'd written about my experience 998 00:34:05,110 --> 00:34:02,320 there and had used my name to 999 00:34:06,630 --> 00:34:05,120 um get access to other buildings and and 1000 00:34:08,550 --> 00:34:06,640 now the texas department of criminal 1001 00:34:09,750 --> 00:34:08,560 justice will no longer allow any sort of 1002 00:34:13,589 --> 00:34:09,760 paranormal investigation of their 1003 00:34:15,430 --> 00:34:13,599 buildings because oh man so sadly um you 1004 00:34:16,869 --> 00:34:15,440 know working all that time to get their 1005 00:34:18,950 --> 00:34:16,879 trust i still have their trust they 1006 00:34:20,149 --> 00:34:18,960 trust me just fine but there are other 1007 00:34:22,550 --> 00:34:20,159 good people in the field that should be 1008 00:34:24,470 --> 00:34:22,560 able to go in and investigate 1009 00:34:27,030 --> 00:34:24,480 you know buildings and especially with 1010 00:34:28,629 --> 00:34:27,040 such historical value um and the people 1011 00:34:30,869 --> 00:34:28,639 that have a shadier 1012 00:34:32,869 --> 00:34:30,879 type of agenda in this field they kind 1013 00:34:34,629 --> 00:34:32,879 of ruin it for people but 1014 00:34:35,990 --> 00:34:34,639 that one for me was something that 1015 00:34:38,230 --> 00:34:36,000 nobody else had done i was the only 1016 00:34:39,990 --> 00:34:38,240 paranormal investigator uh that had ever 1017 00:34:41,109 --> 00:34:40,000 done that and 1018 00:34:42,470 --> 00:34:41,119 you know 1019 00:34:44,869 --> 00:34:42,480 places that get investigated all the 1020 00:34:47,669 --> 00:34:44,879 time um you know like the stanley hotel 1021 00:34:49,030 --> 00:34:47,679 or the queen mary or these famously 1022 00:34:50,310 --> 00:34:49,040 haunted places well this one was a 1023 00:34:52,550 --> 00:34:50,320 famously haunted place that nobody else 1024 00:34:54,310 --> 00:34:52,560 had investigated so i

stories 1036 00:35:21,349 --> 00:35:20,400 sure um one place that isn't really well 1037 00:35:22,870 --> 00:35:21,359 known 1038 00:35:25,589 --> 00:35:22,880 was a place called the home of truth and 1039 00:35:28,710 --> 00:35:25,599 it was just outside of monticello utah 1040 00:35:31,270 --> 00:35:28,720 and i was just doing research about 1041 00:35:32,870 --> 00:35:31,280 historical ghost towns in utah because 1042 00:35:34,950 --> 00:35:32,880 besides being into the paranormal i just 1043 00:35:36,230 --> 00:35:34,960 i'm a history buff and so i was doing 1044 00:35:39,030 --> 00:35:36,240 some research and found out that the 1045 00:35:41,030 --> 00:35:39,040 home of truth was was a cult 1046 00:35:42,950 --> 00:35:41,040 uh forgive me for not knowing the exact 1047 00:35:46,310 --> 00:35:42,960 dates but it was you know 1048 00:35:50,310 --> 00:35:46,320 early 19th or early 20th century 1049 00:35:51,589 --> 00:35:50,320 um this woman marie ogden established a 1050 00:35:53,589 --> 00:35:51,599 faith-based group out there called the 1051 00:35:55,270 --> 00:35:53,599 home of truth and she claimed that she 1052 00:35:57,030 --> 00:35:55,280 could 1053 00:35:58,310 --> 00:35:57,040 not only speak with people on the other 1054 00:36:00,790 --> 00:35:58,320 side of the veil but that she could 1055 00:36:02,870 --> 00:36:00,800 resurrect the dead 1056 00:36:03,910 --> 00:36:02,880 and so a group of people moved out there 1057 00:36:05,430 --> 00:36:03,920 they stopped they made a little 1058 00:36:08,470 --> 00:36:05,440 homestead out there they you know 1059 00:36:10,790 --> 00:36:08,480 established a life and then one of their 1060 00:36:12,790 --> 00:36:10,800 followers passed away and she kept the 1061 00:36:13,750 --> 00:36:12,800 body from her 1062 00:36:15,430 --> 00:36:13,760 her 1063 00:36:18,230 --> 00:36:15,440 from the family 1064 00:36:20,230 --> 00:36:18,240 of this woman and tried to resurrect her 1065 00:36:22,470 --> 00:36:20,240 for quite a long time and then the 1066 00:36:24,310 --> 00:36:22,480 authorities got involved and she refused 1067 00:36:26,710 --> 00:36:24,320 to tell them where the body was and so i 1068 00:36:28,470 --> 00:36:26,720 had i had to go out there i had to see 1069 00:36:30,310 --> 00:36:28,480 this place um 1070 00:36:32,870 --> 00:36:30,320 and there's nothing out there now it's 1071 00:36:34,470 --> 00:36:32,880 it's just some old you know ramshackle 1072 00:36:35,190 --> 00:36:34,480 uh buildings and whatnot it's it's owned 1073 00:36:36,470 --> 00:36:35,200 by 1074 00:36:38,790 --> 00:36:36,480 it's privately owned now so you can't 1075 00:36:40,280 --> 00:36:38,800 just go out on the property now but when 1076 00:36:41,349 --> 00:36:40,290 i went um 1077 00:36:43,030 --> 00:36:41,359 [Music] 1078 00:36:44,390 --> 00:36:43,040 you know just passing through if you 1079 00:36:46,230 --> 00:36:44,400 didn't know what had happened there you 1080 00:36:49,829 --> 00:36:46,240 would still feel 1081 00:36:51,430 --> 00:36:49,839 something that had been either conjured 1082 00:36:53,109 --> 00:36:51,440 or called out there that still remained 1083 00:36:55,030 --> 00:36:53,119 out there so there's a very heavy sort 1084 00:36:56,790 --> 00:36:55,040 of um 1085 00:36:58,310 --> 00:36:56,800 energy out there and and when i 1086 00:37:00,710 --> 00:36:58,320 investigated it like a lot of other 1087 00:37:02,390 --> 00:37:00,720 places you know equipment failed it 1088 00:37:03,829 --> 00:37:02,400 would like i couldn't record anything or 1089 00:37:05,030 --> 00:37:03,839 by the time i was able to review it it 1090 00:37:08,390 --> 00:37:05,040 was all white 1091 00:37:09,990 --> 00:37:08,400 uh batteries died yeah um and a lot of 1092 00:37:11,510 --> 00:37:10,000 these places i investigate by myself so 1093 00:37:13,030 --> 00:37:11,520 there wasn't anybody else to corroborate 1094 00:37:15,430 --> 00:37:13,040 you know that sort of feeling or whatnot 1095 00:37:16,870 --> 00:37:15,440 when i was out there but it's just it's 1096 00:37:19,349 --> 00:37:16,880 one of those places i'd love to get back 1097 00:37:20,710 --> 00:37:19,359 to um and maybe maybe it is you know 1098 00:37:22,310 --> 00:37:20,720 maybe there are spirits there that can 1099 00:37:24,470 --> 00:37:22,320 tell us what happened but it's just i 1100 00:37:26,790 --> 00:37:24,480 think this woman was very much into 1101 00:37:28,790 --> 00:37:26,800 the darker side of the occult um 1102 00:37:30,390 --> 00:37:28,800 and so you know when you get into that 1103 00:37:31,510 --> 00:37:30,400 kind of thing you kind of open things up 1104 00:37:32,950 --> 00:37:31,520 and and i know that there are people 1105 00:37:35,270 --> 00:37:32,960 that have done that even at the ranch 1106 00:37:37,589 --> 00:37:35,280 that have opened things up so i just i 1107 00:37:39,910 --> 00:37:37,599 would caution anyone just not to try to 1108 00:37:42,870 --> 00:37:39,920 provoke anything uh going into any sort 1109 00:37:44,630 --> 00:37:42,880 of spiritual or paranormal um 1110 00:37:46,710 --> 00:37:44,640 property but that's one of the ones that 1111 00:37:47,589 --> 00:37:46,720 most people don't know that much about 1112 00:37:49,349 --> 00:37:47,599 um 1113 00:37:51,030 --> 00:37:49,359 there's famous ghosts like the the 1114 00:37:53,750 --> 00:37:51,040 capital theater in salt lake city they 1115 00:37:56,310 --> 00:37:53,760 they have you know like most theaters 1116 00:37:58,390 --> 00:37:56,320 but it's legitimately haunted um 1117 00:38:00,630 --> 00:37:58,400 that's a fun place to have gone i think 1118 00:38:01,829 --> 00:38:00,640 solitaire is also a fascinating story i 1119 00:38:04,870 --> 00:38:01,839 don't know if you know much about the 1120 00:38:07,430 --> 00:38:04,880 history yes out on the great salt lake 1121 00:38:10,630 --> 00:38:07,440 um that place is off the chain 1122 00:38:12,390 --> 00:38:10,640 resort you know in the west for a long 1123 00:38:13,270 --> 00:38:12,400 period of time and 1124 00:38:14,630 --> 00:38:13,280 it was 1125 00:38:16,310 --> 00:38:14,640 built out of wood 1126 00:38:17,510 --> 00:38:16,320 i mean it burned i think a total of 1127 00:38:20,150 --> 00:38:17,520 three times 1128 00:38:21,589 --> 00:38:20,160 to the ground um and now it's it's kind 1129 00:38:23,510 --> 00:38:21,599 of a shadow of what it used to be but 1130 00:38:24,470 --> 00:38:23,520 there's a lot of history there too 1131 00:38:26,470 --> 00:38:24,480 um 1132 00:38:27,670 --> 00:38:26,480 there's a faceless man out there that 1133 00:38:29,349 --> 00:38:27,680 people have told me they see when 1134 00:38:30,950 --> 00:38:29,359 they're out walking around the grounds 1135 00:38:33,510 --> 00:38:30,960 or you know around the edge of the great 1136 00:38:35,990 --> 00:38:33,520 salt lake where this it's like a 1137 00:38:38,150 --> 00:38:36,000 faceless man in a suit approaches them 1138 00:38:40,310 --> 00:38:38,160 and and they just are kind of paralyzed 1139 00:38:42,390 --> 00:38:40,320 out there now i don't know who he is 1140 00:38:44,150 --> 00:38:42,400 i i have not seen him personally but a 1141 00:38:45,589 --> 00:38:44,160 lot of people who aren't even into 1142 00:38:47,829 --> 00:38:45,599 paranormal investigation have told me 1143 00:38:49,510 --> 00:38:47,839 the story and and so that's something i 1144 00:38:50,790 --> 00:38:49,520 really want to delve into in the future 1145 00:38:51,990 --> 00:38:50,800 and i'm actually doing that there's 1146 00:38:54,790 --> 00:38:52,000 there's a new book coming out called 1147 00:38:57,270 --> 00:38:54,800 carnival of souls nice uh utah's history 1148 00:38:59,670 --> 00:38:57,280 with the unexplained um that'll all have 1149 00:39:00,870 --> 00:38:59,680 that that story as well but you know 1150 00:39:03,589 --> 00:39:00,880 it's 1151 00:39:05,589 --> 00:39:03,599 i think utah gets downplayed a lot um 1152 00:39:07,349 --> 00:39:05,599 and i i don't know if it's just because 1153 00:39:09,109 --> 00:39:07,359 of the religious kind of cloud that 1154 00:39:11,190 --> 00:39:09,119 hangs over the state 1155 00:39:13,829 --> 00:39:11,200 um but you know there are places that 1156 00:39:15,030 --> 00:39:13,839 even the the lds church owns now that i 1157 00:39:16,870 --> 00:39:15,040 would love to investigate but i'm just 1158 00:39:18,310 --> 00:39:16,880 not allowed to 1159 00:39:20,470 --> 00:39:18,320 uh they don't really 1160 00:39:23,270 --> 00:39:20,480 want that sort of attention but there 1161 00:39:25,190 --> 00:39:23,280 are places that i i know have some 1162 00:39:26,150 --> 00:39:25,200 historical value and supernatural value 1163 00:39:27,750 --> 00:39:26,160 as well 1164 00:39:30,230 --> 00:39:27,760 that the church owns and i just i wish i 1165 00:39:31,430 --> 00:39:30,240 could get into them but i i just can't i 1166 00:39:33,750 -->

00:44:37,359 table with me 1324 00:44:41,750 --> 00:44:39,680 witnessed what i witnessed and he looked 1325 00:44:44,710 --> 00:44:41,760 at me he was looking right at me but 1326 00:44:45,589 --> 00:44:44,720 another set of eyes moved behind his 1327 00:44:48,829 --> 00:44:45,599 eyes 1328 00:44:51,109 --> 00:44:48,839 and they didn't look human at all 1329 00:44:52,630 --> 00:44:51,119 so

--> 00:45:04,240 me that uncomfortable um and 1336 00:45:08,150 --> 00:45:06,160 the entire time since i was at the ranch 1337 00:45:09,990 --> 00:45:08,160 till now i still believe 1338 00:45:12,309 --> 00:45:10,000 that that had something to do with it as 1339 00:45:14,790 --> 00:45:12,319 well that that was a warning sign or 1340 00:45:16,550 --> 00:45:14,800 that was a sort of a sign of aggression 1341 00:45:18,790 --> 00:45:16,560 uh to not 1342 00:45:20,470 --> 00:45:18,800 delve further into it and i didn't 1343 00:45:22,230 --> 00:45:20,480 like i said until many years later but i 1344 00:45:24,470 --> 00:45:22,240 just kept having these weird 1345 00:45:26,309 --> 00:45:24,480 experiences where 1346 00:45:28,630 --> 00:45:26,319 it just averaged my average day i'm not 1347 00:45:30,630 --> 00:45:28,640 even doing anything and then i'm just 1348 00:45:32,390 --> 00:45:30,640 getting reminders that you know i 1349 00:45:34,390 --> 00:45:32,400 shouldn't have been there or maybe 1350 00:45:36,390 --> 00:45:34,400 i did something wrong by going 1351 00:45:38,390 --> 00:45:36,400 um and so i just 1352 00:45:41,109 --> 00:45:38,400 i yeah i just i wrote about it and i let 1353 00:45:43,109 --> 00:45:41,119 it go um until people started having 1354 00:45:44,870 --> 00:45:43,119 much more of an interest in it but you 1355 00:45:46,309 --> 00:45:44,880 know it's it's a it's a tough subject 1356 00:45:48,069 --> 00:45:46,319 when you want to tell someone hey you 1357 00:45:50,309 --> 00:45:48,079 know i normally 1358 00:45:51,910 --> 00:45:50,319 do ghost investigations but maybe i saw 1359 00:45:53,430 --> 00:45:51,920 a reptilian at my book signing like they 1360 00:45:55,109 --> 00:45:53,440 don't think you're all there when you 1361 00:45:56,790 --> 00:45:55,119 say things like that but 1362 00:45:59,510 --> 00:45:56,800 when they actually happen to you when 1363 00:46:01,430 --> 00:45:59,520 you have these strange things happen 1364 00:46:04,069 --> 00:46:01,440 you wish you couldn't believe it but it 1365 00:46:05,510 --> 00:46:04,079 it happened and so you know i don't get 1366 00:46:06,710 --> 00:46:05,520 scared by much there's not a lot that 1367 00:46:09,349 --> 00:46:06,720 rattles me 1368 00:46:11,270 --> 00:46:09,359 but that did uh and so did the people in 1369 00:46:13,030 --> 00:46:11,280 walmart so and i

uh but you know it's it's a different 1373 00:46:20,630 --> 00:46:19,119 time now there's new owners there's a 1374 00:46:23,670 --> 00:46:20,640 whole different group of people out 1375 00:46:25,829

1378 00:46:30,790 --> 00:46:29,200 as far as that goes or if the ranch is 1379 00:46:32,470 --> 00:46:30,800 going to show up 1380 00:46:33,750 --> 00:46:32,480 at some point with people and vehicles 1381 00:46:35,750 --> 00:46:33,760 outside of my house i mean i wouldn't be 1382 00:46:38,069 --> 00:46:35,760 surprised if that happened it just 1383 00:46:40,710 --> 00:46:38,079 hasn't been my experience yet but i'm 1384 00:46:42,870 --> 00:46:40,720 always aware that 1385 00:46:45,670 --> 00:46:42,880 something is aware of me 1386 00:46:47,030 --> 00:46:45,680 and my interest in it uh and

00:51:45,990 --> 00:51:44,720 at us and look at us and 1534 00:51:47,349 --> 00:51:46,000 you know 1535 00:51:48,950 --> 00:51:47,359 they tried to figure out how is this 1536 00:51:51,190 --> 00:51:48,960 happening there's no strings attached no 1537 00:51:53,190 --> 00:51:51,200 wires no projectors nothing and then 1538 00:51:55,109 --> 00:51:53,200 after the whole incident was over you 1539 00:51:56,710 --> 00:51:55,119 know the ghost i told you i told you 1540 00:51:58,309 --> 00:51:56,720 this was going to happen but you know 1541 00:52:00,390 --> 00:51:58,319 you were going to have a show for for 1542 00:52:01,750 --> 00:52:00,400 people when you and i'm like wait 1543 00:52:02,630 --> 00:52:01,760 how did you even know i didn't even know 1544 00:52:04,549 --> 00:52:02,640 i was going to bring these people 1545 00:52:06,950 --> 00:52:04,559 through until last minute so 1546 00:52:08,390 --> 00:52:06,960 there are there does seem to be um 1547 00:52:09,589 --> 00:52:08,400 you know 1548 00:52:11,910 --> 00:52:09,599 some sort of 1549 00:52:13,270 --> 00:52:11,920 predictive intelligence that can that 1550 00:52:14,790 --> 00:52:13,280 can tell 1551 00:52:16,230 --> 00:52:14,800 how you're even going to behave before 1552 00:52:17,750 --> 00:52:16,240 you know it and uh 1553 00:52:20,069 --> 00:52:17,760 it does happen occasionally i wouldn't 1554 00:52:22,950 --> 00:52:20,079 say it happens a lot at least not in my 1555 00:52:24,790 --> 00:52:22,960 experience um if i spend more time in 1556 00:52:26,870 --> 00:52:24,800 places like the ranch it might but you 1557 00:52:28,710 --> 00:52:26,880 know who knows but it does happen and it 1558 00:52:30,309 --> 00:52:28,720 does make me think okay 1559 00:52:32,309 --> 00:52:30,319 just do we have to worry about 1560 00:52:33,990 --> 00:52:32,319 predestination is this do i have 1561 00:52:35,990 --> 00:52:34,000 reagency or is this just all one big 1562 00:52:38,549 --> 00:52:36,000 puppet show like it just it blows the 1563 00:52:40,549 --> 00:52:38,559 mind um but i've learned 1564 00:52:42,150 --> 00:52:40,559 not to be too analytical of those things 1565 00:52:43,750 --> 00:52:42,160 and just experience them in the moment 1566 00:52:44,950 --> 00:52:43,760 take from them what i can and then if i 1567 00:52:47,109 --> 00:52:44,960 encounter something like that again i 1568 00:52:48,470 --> 00:52:47,119 can compare notes but i don't i really 1569 00:52:51,190 --> 00:52:48,480 try not to 1570 00:52:52,870 --> 00:52:51,200 um assign any sort of 1571 00:52:54,470 --> 00:52:52,880 you know definition to it because then 1572 00:52:56,630 --> 00:52:54,480 it then it changes and i don't get to 1573 00:52:58,069 --> 00:52:56,640 experience it again um and that's true 1574 00:53:00,470 --> 00:52:58,079 across the board whether it's you know 1575 00:53:02,790 --> 00:53:00,480 at a ufo hot spot or you know a haunted 1576 00:53:04,710 --> 00:53:02,800 house or whatever the case may be 1577 00:53:05,990 --> 00:53:04,720 i just think there's a higher intel 1578 00:53:07,430 --> 00:53:06,000 human beings like to think we're the top 1579 00:53:09,670 --> 00:53:07,440 of the food chain as far as intelligence 1580 00:53:11,990 --> 00:53:09,680 goes but i really don't believe that's 1581 00:53:14,870 --> 00:53:12,000 the case especially you know not knowing 1582 00:53:16,230 --> 00:53:14,880 as much as we don't know uh and and i 1583 00:53:17,829 --> 00:53:16,240 think i mean 1584 00:53:18,790 --> 00:53:17,839 remote viewing for one that's something 1585 00:53:20,790 --> 00:53:18,800 that i 1586 00:53:22,390 --> 00:53:20,800 i got really interested in and practice 1587 00:53:23,910 --> 00:53:22,400 for a while that blew my mind too like 1588 00:53:26,470 --> 00:53:23,920 how how can i see something when i'm not 1589 00:53:28,309 --> 00:53:26,480 there to see it beautiful thing 1590 00:53:29,349 --> 00:53:28,319 it's a bizarre how much you can perceive 1591 00:53:31,109 --> 00:53:29,359 and how much the mind can actually 1592 00:53:34,069 --> 00:53:31,119 influence that kind of stuff and so i i 1593 00:53:35,990 --> 00:53:34,079 hope i get to experience more of that um 1594 00:53:37,349 --> 00:53:36,000 maybe maybe i hope i get to experience 1595 00:53:39,030 --> 00:53:37,359 more of that i don't know it could be 1596 00:53:40,790 --> 00:53:39,040 kind of frightening to 1597 00:53:43,190 --> 00:53:40,800 i've had i've had 1598 00:53:44,950 --> 00:53:43,200 warnings of things um because i do have 1599 00:53:47,270 --> 00:53:44,960 some sensitivities like when my daughter 1600 00:53:49,190 --> 00:53:47,280 was little one of my twin daughters i 1601 00:53:51,349 --> 00:53:49,200 didn't know uh when she was born that 1602 00:53:52,710 --> 00:53:51,359 she'd have the issues that she does now 1603 00:53:54,230 --> 00:53:52,720 but i was told 1604 00:53:56,950 --> 00:53:54,240 by someone or something when she was 1605 00:53:58,870 --> 00:53:56,960 five months old that something big was 1606 00:54:02,390 --> 00:53:58,880 coming for her medically and 1607 00:54:04,309 --> 00:54:02,400 and it did uh five years later so 1608 00:54:05,910 --> 00:54:04,319 i don't know you know it's i don't know 1609 00:54:06,950 --> 00:54:05,920 where the information comes from or or 1610 00:54:11,270 --> 00:54:06,960 how it's 1611 00:54:14,069 --> 00:54:11,280 there and 1612 00:54:16,549 --> 00:54:14,079 um but it does it it kind of 1613 00:54:18,549 --> 00:54:16,559 makes me wonder about life and and these 1614 00:54:19,589 --> 00:54:18,559 experiences that i'm having and you know 1615 00:54:21,109 --> 00:54:19,599 i don't i think a lot of people have 1616 00:54:22,390 --> 00:54:21,119 them and they don't talk about them as 1617 00:54:23,589 --> 00:54:22,400 much because people do think they're 1618 00:54:25,430 --> 00:54:23,599 kind of off their rocker when they talk 1619 00:54:27,109 -->
