00:09:43,380 open in a kind of way that despite not 212 00:09:48,860 --> 00:09:45,029 actually being the cold open on Hellyer 213 00:09:51,190 --> 00:09:48,870 in a linear narrative kind of sense very 214 00:09:53,940 --> 00:09:51,200 much was the precursor and in some ways 215 00:09:56,790 --> 00:09:53,950 back in 1955 there was 216 00:10:00,330 --> 00:09:56,800 a very kind of poor family we're living 217 00:10:04,440 --> 00:10:00,340 in this farmhouse in rural Eastern sorry 218 00:10:06,570 --> 00:10:04,450 Western Kentucky and this UFO might have 219 00:10:08,520 --> 00:10:06,580 crashed near the firehouse there was a 220 00:10:10,290 --> 00:10:08,530 couple reports from police officers 221 00:10:12,990 --> 00:10:10,300 earlier in the night people driving 222 00:10:14,160 --> 00:10:13,000 around that saw like a fireball type UFO 223 00:10:17,640 --> 00:10:14,170 going through the sky 224 00:10:19,440 --> 00:10:17,650 later that night one of the people at 225 00:10:22,800 --> 00:10:19,450 the farmhouse there was like I think 226 00:10:24,810 --> 00:10:22,810 three or four adult males kind of the 227 00:10:27,630 --> 00:10:24,820 the matriarch figure a couple of kids 228 00:10:30,120 --> 00:10:27,640 and one of them went out in the back at 229 00:10:31,890 --> 00:10:30,130 one point and he came running in the 230 00:10:34,470 --> 00:10:31,900 house he had seen there's a little 231 00:10:36,000 --> 00:10:34,480 creature that was kind of faintly 232 00:10:38,060 --> 00:10:36,010 glowing behind the house everyone 233 00:10:40,830 --> 00:10:38,070 thought he was just pulling a prank and 234 00:10:43,440 --> 00:10:40,840 turned out like the rest of the night 235 00:10:45,390 --> 00:10:43,450 they had this I mean kind of to 236 00:10:47,130 --> 00:10:45,400 hyperbolized them a little bit like they 237 00:10:49,830 --> 00:10:47,140 had a battle that night with these 238 00:10:51,810 --> 00:10:49,840 creatures because they approached the 239 00:10:53,550 --> 00:10:51,820 house freaked everyone out you know the 240 00:10:55,560 --> 00:10:53,560 guys grabbed their guns they ran outside 241 00:10:59,460 --> 00:10:55,570 they took some shots at him they were up 242 00:11:00,840 --> 00:10:59,470 in the trees they were up on the roof so 243 00:11:02,130 --> 00:11:00,850 I think they fired like a couple of 244 00:11:03,930 --> 00:11:02,140 shots at him through the night they saw 245 00:11:05,760 --> 00:11:03,940 the bullets just bounce off of them they 246 00:11:08,490 --> 00:11:05,770 ran off a couple hours later they came 247 00:11:09,990 --> 00:11:08,500 back the family drove over to nearby 248 00:11:12,630 --> 00:11:10,000 Hopkinsville and caught the cops 249 00:11:14,340 --> 00:11:12,640 involved and then the following days it 250 00:11:16,410 --> 00:11:14,350 was just a media circus about what 251 00:11:19,500 --> 00:11:16,420 happened and there's tons of theories 252 00:11:22,110 --> 00:11:19,510 about it you know that some circus 253 00:11:24,660 --> 00:11:22,120 animal escaped from a passing circus 254 00:11:27,450 --> 00:11:24,670 like just it's it's a fascinating case 255 00:11:30,570 --> 00:11:27,460 because as you know you'll see what the 256 00:11:33,840 --> 00:11:30,580 hell your story like this guy David's 257 00:11:38,070 --> 00:11:33,850 original emails have some consistent 258 00:11:39,690 --> 00:11:38,080 similarities with that and it it's 259 00:11:41,910 --> 00:11:39,700 Kentucky you know the spin of the 260 00:11:44,040 --> 00:11:41,920 backbone oh but the Hopkins little piece 261 00:11:45,690 --> 00:11:44,050 it's it's interesting there's a couple 262 00:11:47,820 --> 00:11:45,700 primary sources you know when the news 263 00:11:50,460 --> 00:11:47,830 media shows up the next

00:13:19,620 just hanging out trailer but a lot of it 299 00:13:23,210 --> 00:13:20,840 nowadays when you look at like the 300 00:13:26,990 --> 00:13:23,220 Center for UFO studies like right up 301 00:13:28,760 --> 00:13:27,000 about it and you look at what Geraldine 302 00:13:30,710 --> 00:13:28,770 Sutton's death has written about it 303 00:13:32,690 --> 00:13:30,720 she's one of the descendants of the 304 00:13:34,460 --> 00:13:32,700 family members there a lot of it is in 305 00:13:37,460 --> 00:13:34,470 hindsight you know a lot of its looking 306 00:13:39,500 --> 00:13:37,470 back and that's something that we have 307 00:13:41,540 --> 00:13:39,510 to juggle a lot is UFO paranormal 308 00:13:43,280 --> 00:13:41,550 researchers is just kind of trying to 309 00:13:45,860 --> 00:13:43,290 weigh stuff that's like just 310 00:13:47,570 --> 00:13:45,870 retrospective taking people's words for 311 00:13:50,270 --> 00:13:47,580 looking for consistencies kind of 312 00:13:52,700 --> 00:13:50,280 research that's a good point Karl I mean 313 00:13:54,980 --> 00:13:52,710 for for someone like a supernatural or 314 00:13:56,330 --> 00:13:54,990 paranormal investigator there's a lot of 315 00:13:59,870 --> 00:13:56,340 opportunity during your investigation 316 00:14:02,120 --> 00:13:59,880 too to like really tap into something as 317 00:14:06,110 --> 00:14:02,130 it's happening you know living in that 318 00:14:08,720 --> 00:14:06,120 moment of a of a case whereas with UFOs 319 00:14:10,310 --> 00:14:08,730 it's it's hard for us because usually it 320 00:14:12,370 --> 00:14:10,320 happens it's gone in the blink of an eye 321 00:14:15,650 --> 00:14:12,380 and we're left with very little to 322 00:14:18,020 --> 00:14:15,660 investigate so I mean when those two 323 00:14:20,960 --> 00:14:18,030 worlds sort of collided for you guys I 324 00:14:22,640 --> 00:14:20,970 was super excited to know that we might 325 00:14:24,710 --> 00:14:22,650 be dealing with UFOs you might be 326 00:14:27,440 --> 00:14:24,720 dealing with some sort of cryptid weird 327 00:14:29,980 --> 00:14:27,450 creature monster or something super now 328 00:14:32,660 --> 00:14:29,990 it's got everything everything you guys 329 00:14:35,840 --> 00:14:32,670 experienced it's just like a melting pot 330 00:14:38,660 --> 00:14:35,850 of just weird weird which we will 331 00:14:40,550 --> 00:14:38,670 get to but definitely know thank you for 332 00:14:42,560 --> 00:14:40,560 that good good explanation of the 333 00:14:44,180 --> 00:14:42,570 Hopkins fellow Goblin case it's one I I 334 00:14:47,870 --> 00:14:44,190 always bring up is like one of those 335 00:14:51,620 --> 00:14:47,880 super rich stories of highly close 336 00:14:54,410 --> 00:14:51,630 encounter and a family that reported it 337 00:14:57,140 --> 00:14:54,420 but never really wanted the publicity 338 00:14:59,570 --> 00:14:57,150 that came with it which which you know 339 00:15:02,360 --> 00:14:59,580 it's problem in our field is a lot of 340 00:15:04,760 --> 00:15:02,370 people come forward or just honestly 341 00:15:06,890 --> 00:15:04,770 make stuff up because they want to get 342 00:15:09,740 --> 00:15:06,900 noticed but as far as I know that a 343 00:15:11,570 --> 00:15:09,750 Sutton family they they moved away after 344 00:15:13,400 --> 00:15:11,580 this am I correct in that because they 345 00:15:16,130 --> 00:15:13,410 just they couldn't take the the amount 346 00:15:17,660 --> 00:15:16,140 of media attention yeah they kind of be 347 00:15:19,850 --> 00:15:17,670 kind of scattered I mean because it was 348 00:15:21,800 --> 00:15:19,860 kind of an extended family that was 349 00:15:23,990 --> 00:15:21,810 there that night a lot of them trouble 350 00:15:24,510 --> 00:15:24,000 for work and the head some of them had 351 00:15:27,210 --> 00:15:24,520 other 352 00:15:29,010 --> 00:15:27,220 with family members and stuff so they 353 00:15:30,420 --> 00:15:29,020 kind of just kind of split as best they 354 00:15:32,630 --> 00:15:30,430 could after that because of the 355 00:15:36,300 --> 00:15:32,640 attention I think it was a 356 00:15:38,010 --> 00:15:36,310 Geraldine's dad I think who was there 357 00:15:39,960 --> 00:15:38,020 involved in the incident um 358 00:15:41,760 --> 00:15:39,970 lucky like I think like he wouldn't even 359 00:15:44,040 --> 00:15:41,770 talk about it further like the rest of 360 00:15:45,780 --> 00:15:44,050 his life like like it was such a bad 361 00:15:48,600 --> 00:15:45,790 experience for them but you're right I 362 00:15:49,740 --> 00:15:48,610 mean basically anything whether it's 363 00:15:51,000 --> 00:15:49,750 connected with Holly or anything else 364 00:15:54,690 --> 00:15:51,010 the first question we're constantly 365 00:15:56,850 --> 00:15:54,700 asking is is this for publicity and I 366 00:15:58,500 --> 00:15:56,860 mean sometimes it's tough when when it 367 00:16:00,840 --> 00:15:58,510 does go south that doesn't mean it 368 00:16:02,250 --> 00:16:00,850 wasn't done for publicity you know and 369 00:16:05,310 --> 00:16:02,260 then they just kind of realized after 370 00:16:07,380 --> 00:16:05,320 the fact like oh shoot that wasn't quite 371 00:16:10,140 --> 00:16:07,390 what we wanted but at a certain point 372 00:16:11,280 --> 00:16:10,150 you know if it was you're getting 373 00:16:13,770 --> 00:16:11,290 attention there's media that there's 374 00:16:15,570 --> 00:16:13,780 people there you know like set up a sign 375 00:16:17,130 --> 00:16:15,580 and sell some stuff whatever the 376 00:16:18,780 --> 00:16:17,140 Hopkinsville case really just doesn't 377 00:16:20,580 --> 00:16:18,790 feel like that at all everything you 378 00:16:23,970 --> 00:16:20,590 read about it it was like a normal 379 00:16:26,370 --> 00:16:23,980 family that had an experience and was 380 00:16:29,820 --> 00:16:26,380 put out by it in a way but they did not 381 00:16:31,740 --> 00:16:29,830 enjoy sort of the the small details and 382 00:16:33,810 --> 00:16:31,750 the the more weird it is the more I'm 383 00:16:35,970 --> 00:16:33,820 willing to accept it you know it's not 384 00:16:38,100 --> 00:16:35,980 so prototypical and that's kind of what 385 00:16:40,230 --> 00:16:38,110 you guys came across as well so I kind 386 00:16:42,810 --> 00:16:40,240 of want to start with with episode one 387 00:16:45,510 --> 00:16:42,820 I've seen the first two episodes episode 388 00:16:49,380 --> 00:16:45,520 one the midnight children this is sort 389 00:16:51,210 --> 00:16:49,390 of our introduction to you and your your 390 00:16:53,490 --> 00:16:51,220 focal points in terms of investigators 391 00:16:56,550 --> 00:16:53,500 and how this all came to be I remember 392 00:17:00,240 --> 00:16:56,560 when we first spoke that was like days 393 00:17:01,650 --> 00:17:00,250 within starting this project and I knew 394 00:17:04,050 --> 00:17:01,660 you were talking to Greg and Dana 395 00:17:07,140 --> 00:17:04,060 Newkirk fellow colleagues of mine as 396 00:17:09,060 --> 00:17:07,150 well and before we even get to Helier 397 00:17:11,550 --> 00:17:09,070 with you tell us how you first got 398 00:17:14,970 --> 00:17:11,560 involved with Greg and Dana about this 399 00:17:17,310 --> 00:17:14,980 weird string of events that kind of led 400 00:17:17,990 --> 00:17:17,320 to your documentary series if you if you 401 00:17:21,090 --> 00:17:18,000 don't mind 402 00:17:25,050 --> 00:17:21,100 my-my prologue with the story with Greg 403 00:17:26,610 --> 00:17:25,060 and Dana was that I met them in 2016 I 404 00:17:29,010 --> 00:17:26,620 think when we were wrapping up at the 405 00:17:30,840 --> 00:17:29,020 Stanley Hotel they had eliminated the 406 00:17:32,130 --> 00:17:30,850 paranormal investigations at that point 407 00:17:34,320 --> 00:17:32,140 and there was kind of one final 408 00:17:35,670 --> 00:17:34,330 scheduled paranormal event which was 409 00:17:37,360 --> 00:17:35,680 strange escapes of a thing you're 410 00:17:39,970 --> 00:17:37,370 burning up there that weekend 411 00:17:41,410 --> 00:17:39,980 and Greg and Dana were up there it was 412 00:17:43,090 --> 00:17:41,420 the first time I met them I'd heard a 413 00:17:44,650 --> 00:17:43,100 little bit about them obviously there's 414 00:17:46,960 --> 00:17:44,660 public figures and they're good friends 415 00:17:50,020 --> 00:17:46,970 with John Tenney and I tend to hang out 416 00:17:51,549 --> 00:17:50,030 with him at those events so via him met 417 00:17:53,590 --> 00:17:51,559 Greg and Dana we hit it off really well 418 00:17:56,680 --> 00:17:53,600 that weekend amongst all the busyness 419 00:17:59,230 --> 00:17:56,690 and we kept in touch but it was it was 420 00:18:01,330 --> 00:17:59,240 months later actually just probably a 421 00:18:03,070 --> 00:18:01,340 couple weeks later that Dana wrote up a 422 00:18:04,810 --> 00:18:03,080 really nice blog entry about all these 423 00:18:07,420 --> 00:18:04,820 indie paranormal projects people should 424 00:18:09,940 --> 00:18:07,430 check out and she included my spirits of 425 00:18:11,710 --> 00:18:09,950 this family web series on the list but 426 00:18:13,450 --> 00:18:11,720 she also included an episode of Jim 427 00:18:16,480 --> 00:18:13,460 Perry's you ferment podcast on there as 428 00:18:20,350 --> 00:18:16,490 well and I know you know Jim loved that 429 00:18:21,580 --> 00:18:20,360 show exactly it's great so I went to 430 00:18:23,140 --> 00:18:21,590 listen to that one so I kind of was 431 00:18:25,060 --> 00:18:23,150 checking out everything on the list 432 00:18:26,770 --> 00:18:25,070 but I didn't have a chance to really dig 433 00:18:28,990 --> 00:18:26,780 into the episode past the first minute 434 00:18:31,870 --> 00:18:29,000 or two and months later I went back to 435 00:18:34,240 --> 00:18:31,880 it and was like oh yeah I need to listen 436 00:18:35,740 --> 00:18:34,250 to this episode so I start digging in 437 00:18:37,930 --> 00:18:35,750 and it's of course the Helier the 438 00:18:39,940 --> 00:18:37,940 kentucky goblins episode and halfway 439 00:18:43,120 --> 00:18:39,950 through I mean I'm just sucked into this 440 00:18:45,010 --> 00:18:43,130 story I'm so absorbed so I ironically as 441 00:18:46,710 --> 00:18:45,020 I'm sucked in and absorbed I posit to go 442 00:18:51,610 --> 00:18:46,720 tell the internet about it 443 00:18:52,990 --> 00:18:51,620 as we do so I blast it out in Greg 444 00:18:54,820 --> 00:18:53,000 writes back and he's all like you know 445 00:18:57,880 --> 00:18:54,830 this Jim does a great job with the 446 00:19:01,450 --> 00:18:57,890 podcast is all him and just like a 447 00:19:04,120 --> 00:19:01,460 minute later his weakened weird planet 448 00:19:06,190 --> 00:19:04,130 weird account tweets out the link to the 449 00:19:09,150 --> 00:19:06,200 Kentucky goblins story to which I think 450 00:19:11,650 --> 00:19:09,160 is just great kind of utilizing my 451 00:19:13,090 --> 00:19:11,660 mention about it to blast it out to 452 00:19:15,700 --> 00:19:13,100 everyone else and remind them about the 453 00:19:18,520 --> 00:19:15,710 story and he's like no I didn't I didn't 454 00:19:21,160 --> 00:19:18,530 send that out that was our account auto 455 00:19:23,470 --> 00:19:21,170 posting our old blog entries and 456 00:19:25,630 --> 00:19:23,480 articles of which there are seventeen 457 00:19:27,640 --> 00:19:25,640 hundred plus in the archives that it 458 00:19:29,919 --> 00:19:27,650 could have Auto hosted but there's only 459 00:19:32,860 --> 00:19:29,929 two that are about the Kentucky goblins 460 00:19:34,750 --> 00:19:32,870 case the Helier case and so just the 461 00:19:36,730 --> 00:19:34,760 fact that I should randomly be listening 462 00:19:39,549 --> 00:19:36,740 to that episode months after it was 463 00:19:41,169 --> 00:19:39,559 recorded that this account should Auto 464 00:19:43,299 --> 00:19:41,179 post right is on there on Twitter 465 00:19:46,980 --> 00:19:43,309 talking about it mid loosening in the 466 00:19:49,180 --> 00:19:46,990 episode just a nod to that really felt 467 00:19:50,170 --> 00:19:49,190 significant they really kind of blew me 468 00:19:53,560 --> 00:19:50,180 over so 469 00:19:54,010 --> 00:19:53,570 I never really had a synchronicity like 470 00:19:58,030 --> 00:19:54,020 that 471 00:20:00,520 --> 00:19:58,040 I felt was particularly I don't know you 472 00:20:02,920 --> 00:20:00,530 know like like dictating or intelligent 473 00:20:04,240 --> 00:20:02,930 like I've never had one that's connected 474 00:20:05,920 --> 00:20:04,250 to anything like that 475 00:20:07,000 --> 00:20:05,930 but the next two weeks after that I was 476 00:20:09,040 --> 00:20:07,010 just having tons of these 477 00:20:09,970 --> 00:20:09,050 synchronicities and then they started to 478 00:20:12,160 --> 00:20:09,980 kind of quiet down 479 00:20:13,960 --> 00:20:12,170 but little did I know as I finished the 480 00:20:15,580 --> 00:20:13,970 episode the whole story and Adamic 481 00:20:16,960 --> 00:20:15,590 listening like they wanted to go back to 482 00:20:19,060 --> 00:20:16,970 this town this place and do more 483 00:20:21,370 --> 00:20:19,070 research so those after that that I 484 00:20:23,800 --> 00:20:21,380 started feeling a little bit connected 485 00:20:25,180 --> 00:20:23,810 to the case but my filmmaker side you 486 00:20:26,740 --> 00:20:25,190 know looking for the next project 487 00:20:28,510 --> 00:20:26,750 wanting to be involved in a cool project 488 00:20:30,400 --> 00:20:28,520 being friends with Greg and Dana I 489 00:20:33,010 --> 00:20:30,410 started hounding him a little bit on 490 00:20:34,780 --> 00:20:33,020 wanting to go back and it took about a 491 00:20:36,760 --> 00:20:34,790 year because I think there was some 492 00:20:38,350 --> 00:20:36,770 reluctance for him and Dana to go back 493 00:20:40,870 --> 00:20:38,360 at that point they wanted to time it 494 00:20:42,760 --> 00:20:40,880 well because they're super busy and and 495 00:20:45,040 --> 00:20:42,770 they know this case well enough that if 496 00:20:48,040 --> 00:20:45,050 they dig into it it's gonna consume them 497 00:20:50,290 --> 00:20:48,050 for a little while and as we got it put 498 00:20:52,510 --> 00:20:50,300 together our schedules aligned somehow 499 00:20:54,750 --> 00:20:52,520 miraculously cuz that's we're learning 500 00:20:57,820 --> 00:20:54,760 now is much harder to do that it sounds 501 00:20:58,900 --> 00:20:57,830 as we try to do more work and so we just 502 00:21:02,830 --> 00:20:58,910 hopped in the car and we went out there 503 00:21:05,230 --> 00:21:02,840 to uh to follow up the next step did you 504 00:21:07,960 --> 00:21:05,240 have any preconceived notions about this 505 00:21:10,300 --> 00:21:07,970 whole sort of goblin sighting report 506 00:21:11,980 --> 00:21:10,310 thing and and how did that how did you 507 00:21:13,960 --> 00:21:11,990 really decide to tackle this whole thing 508 00:21:17,350 --> 00:21:13,970 as a documentary did you have like a 509 00:21:19,570 --> 00:21:17,360 certain style you wanted to evoke or was 510 00:21:21,370 --> 00:21:19,580 it just sort of stumbling along the way 511 00:21:24,040 --> 00:21:21,380 making those discoveries I would assume 512 00:21:26,320 --> 00:21:24,050 it's owned a lot of everything yeah it 513 00:21:28,030 --> 00:21:26,330 really is whether that's the content of 514 00:21:30,430 --> 00:21:28,040 the case or the documentary itself it's 515 00:21:33,850 --> 00:21:30,440 a lot of everything on all sides 516 00:21:36,820 --> 00:21:33,860 you know approaching at all I I've read 517 00:21:39,510 --> 00:21:36,830 keel and I've read valley you know so 518 00:21:43,060 --> 00:21:39,520 valley of course with that sort of like 519 00:21:44,950 --> 00:21:43,070 pluralistic concept of all of these 520 00:21:47,710 --> 00:21:44,960 things being kind of connected like he's 521 00:21:50,340 --> 00:21:47,720 very resistant towards the idea of the 522 00:21:54,520 --> 00:21:50,350 UFO phenomena and the UFO occupant 523 00:21:56,920 --> 00:21:54,530 question he's reluctant to jump to the 524 00:21:58,900 --> 00:21:56,930 conclusion that they're from outside of 525 00:22:00,550 --> 00:21:58,910 our planet and he was the one that did a 526 00:22:03,020 --> 00:22:00,560 lot of interesting research connecting 527 00:22:06,050 --> 00:22:03,030 it to all of the old folklore 528 00:22:07,810 --> 00:22:06,060 legends and stuff like the Fae and you 529 00:22:11,420 --> 00:22:07,820 know these little creatures like goblins 530 00:22:13,190 --> 00:22:11,430 connecting to the the UFO phenomena so I 531 00:22:15,950 --> 00:22:13,200 have always been kind of taken from his 532 00:22:17,840 --> 00:22:15,960 work with the idea that if we're talking 533 00:22:19,490 --> 00:22:17,850 about UFOs or aliens that there might be 534 00:22:23,600 --> 00:22:19,500 a connection there two of these stories 535 00:22:24,950 --> 00:22:23,610 of goblins so and David - you know he's 536 00:22:27,290 --> 00:22:24,960 talking about these things coming out of 537 00:22:30,110 --> 00:22:27,300 mines on his property in his original 538 00:22:31,070 --> 00:22:30,120 emails and he says he believes they're 539 00:22:32,840 --> 00:22:31,080 extraterrestrial 540 00:22:34,940 --> 00:22:32,850 which is a bit of a leap which is 541 00:22:37,760 --> 00:22:34,950 interesting - even here in his original 542 00:22:40,520 --> 00:22:37,770 emails because he didn't say they were 543 00:22:41,660 --> 00:22:40,530 coming from UFOs so the fact that he's 544 00:22:44,240 --> 00:22:41,670 already made that connection is 545 00:22:46,310 --> 00:22:44,250 interesting it's not telling but yeah so 546 00:22:48,320 --> 00:22:46,320 I came in very open-minded I came in 547 00:22:50,690 --> 00:22:48,330 very intrigued after reading Kiel I 548 00:22:52,850 --> 00:22:50,700 always wanted kind of a big story 549 00:22:54,380 --> 00:22:52,860 you know a rich exciting story like 550 00:22:56,390 --> 00:22:54,390 whether that's a flat barrier just a 551 00:22:59,270 --> 00:22:56,400 highly highly strange story with a lot 552 00:23:01,100 --> 00:22:59,280 of facets and this felt like it so I you 553 00:23:03,050 --> 00:23:01,110 know with a little self interest I was 554 00:23:05,270 --> 00:23:03,060 excited to try to engage in this case 555 00:23:08,630 --> 00:23:05,280 from a personal element and have some 556 00:23:10,640 --> 00:23:08,640 weird experiences in my life so I did 557 00:23:13,790 --> 00:23:10,650 bring a bit of a bias in terms of an 558 00:23:16,340 --> 00:23:13,800 eagerness for being high strange and 559 00:23:17,720 --> 00:23:16,350 paranormal I wanted to do more 560 00:23:20,000 --> 00:23:17,730 documentary work and I felt like this 561 00:23:21,980 --> 00:23:20,010 was a good project to document so when 562 00:23:23,270 --> 00:23:21,990 we drove out there we had no idea what 563 00:23:26,660 --> 00:23:23,280 it was gonna be we didn't know if we 564 00:23:28,340 --> 00:23:26,670 were gonna shoot a sizzle reel if we're 565 00:23:30,140 --> 00:23:28,350 gonna shoot like a short documentary 566 00:23:33,670 --> 00:23:30,150 like a 40-minute talk about the 567 00:23:35,810 --> 00:23:33,680 backstory we wanted to go down to town 568 00:23:37,370 --> 00:23:35,820 but we had no idea of anything would 569 00:23:40,190 --> 00:23:37,380 happen there you know if nothing 570 00:23:42,290 --> 00:23:40,200 happened you know we come back home and 571 00:23:43,670 --> 00:23:42,300 try to figure out how long this thing's 572 00:23:47,710 --> 00:23:43,680 gonna be do we release this is a feature 573 00:23:50,300 --> 00:23:47,720 sure the sizzle what we do and it just 574 00:23:51,980 --> 00:23:50,310 wound up growing through the whole trip 575 00:23:55,040 --> 00:23:51,990 there was enough weirdness and subtle 576 00:23:57,710 --> 00:23:55,050 weirdness to that we wanted to take 577 00:23:59,660 --> 00:23:57,720 people along on that first journey 578 00:24:01,700 --> 00:23:59,670 rather than just kind of retell it beat 579 00:24:04,310 --> 00:24:01,710 by beat which obviously could have taken 580 00:24:05,810 --> 00:24:04,320 two hours easy but it's it became about 581 00:24:08,180 --> 00:24:05,820 the journey and especially in today's 582 00:24:09,980 --> 00:24:08,190 kind of paranormal media world it's 583 00:24:14,150 --> 00:24:09,990 either like you know a night of ghost 584 00:24:15,160 --> 00:24:14,160 hunting or a documentary style just kind 585 00:24:16,810 --> 00:24:15,170 of talking heads 586 00:24:20,050 --> 00:24:16,820 telling old stories and ideas and 587 00:24:22,870 --> 00:24:20,060 there's not it's tough to make research 588 00:24:24,400 --> 00:24:22,880 sexy right you know like hey check it 589 00:24:25,810 --> 00:24:24,410 out you know people are go to the 590 00:24:28,690 --> 00:24:25,820 library let's make a whole show about 591 00:24:29,770 --> 00:24:28,700 this right like I get it you know so 592 00:24:34,060 --> 00:24:29,780 that was that was kind of one of my 593 00:24:36,640 --> 00:24:34,070 goals as as a filmmaker was to take 594 00:24:39,400 --> 00:24:36,650 people along on actual research side of 595 00:24:42,430 --> 00:24:39,410 it but make that exciting and luckily 596 00:24:45,310 --> 00:24:42,440 the case did its own part too 597 00:24:48,610 --> 00:24:45,320 and it provided us some some new 598 00:24:50,500 --> 00:24:48,620 connections and new leads that are very 599 00:24:53,020 --> 00:24:50,510 interesting and I think very telling 600 00:24:55,270 --> 00:24:53,030 that make the benefits of that research 601 00:24:59,200 --> 00:24:55,280 fun so we got our own kind of story of 602 00:25:02,500 --> 00:24:59,210 beats from the research side too so yeah 603 00:25:04,120 --> 00:25:02,510 a high concept kind of like content wise 604 00:25:08,130 --> 00:25:04,130 that was one of the things that I was 605 00:25:10,540 --> 00:25:08,140 going with the documentary in hindsight 606 00:25:13,180 --> 00:25:10,550 stylistically I mean I wanted it to look 607 00:25:16,750 --> 00:25:13,190 cinematic as possible I'm I'm a consumer 608 00:25:18,850 --> 00:25:16,760 of a lot of TV and movies these days and 609 00:25:23,040 --> 00:25:18,860 I always want to continue my interaction 610 00:25:25,270 --> 00:25:23,050 with those things by creating myself and 611 00:25:28,210 --> 00:25:25,280 some of my favorite stuff just have that 612 00:25:29,740 --> 00:25:28,220 cinematic quality I watch a lot of 613 00:25:31,360 --> 00:25:29,750 scripted shows and I wanted to bring 614 00:25:33,370 --> 00:25:31,370 that into the documentary world by 615 00:25:35,680 --> 00:25:33,380 shooting running gun but giving it that 616 00:25:39,370 --> 00:25:35,690 DeLand flavor as much as I could with 617 00:25:41,890 --> 00:25:39,380 basically zero budget and not having 618 00:25:44,500 --> 00:25:41,900 worked in Hollywood before so those two 619 00:25:46,600 --> 00:25:44,510 limitations working against me I wanted 620 00:25:48,700 --> 00:25:46,610 to go out there and make it as cinematic 621 00:25:51,040 --> 00:25:48,710 as possible and bring some flavors to it 622 00:25:53,080 --> 00:25:51,050 that I hadn't seen in tons of 623 00:25:54,670 --> 00:25:53,090 documentaries let alone paranormal 624 00:25:57,610 --> 00:25:54,680 television at all so I wanted an 625 00:26:00,610 --> 00:25:57,620 anamorphic feel one of those cool 80s 626 00:26:02,500 --> 00:26:00,620 Syfy flares that you haven't seen on 627 00:26:04,270 --> 00:26:02,510 paranormal shows because the actual 628 00:26:06,220 --> 00:26:04,280 anamorphic lenses are like super super 629 00:26:08,290 --> 00:26:06,230 expensive stuff like that like I just 630 00:26:11,950 --> 00:26:08,300 wanted it to have this like creepy 631 00:26:14,170 --> 00:26:11,960 cinematic feel that if I did my job 632 00:26:16,390 --> 00:26:14,180 right kind of throws the audience into a 633 00:26:18,270 --> 00:26:16,400 bit of a state of messing with their 634 00:26:22,600 --> 00:26:18,280 heads where it kind of looks at times 635 00:26:24,940 --> 00:26:22,610 like it's a movie but it's also real 636 00:26:26,440 --> 00:26:24,950 life and I wanted to kind of blend those 637 00:26:28,899 --> 00:26:26,450 two things together where everything's 638 00:26:31,180 --> 00:26:28,909 honest everything's legit but 639 00:26:34,450 --> 00:26:31,190 it feels like you're being taken into a 640 00:26:36,460 --> 00:26:34,460 world of cinema which which is an 641 00:26:38,619 --> 00:26:36,470 interesting line to walk in and I hope 642 00:26:41,409 --> 00:26:38,629 you kind of achieved that you never know 643 00:26:44,229 --> 00:26:41,419 what to expect next and you bring up a 644 00:26:46,869 --> 00:26:44,239 good point with valet and this whole 645 00:26:49,629 --> 00:26:46,879 idea of like the controlled mechanism 646 00:26:52,570 --> 00:26:49,639 that this sort of case and or phenomena 647 00:26:54,669 --> 00:26:52,580 was kind of working with you guys like 648 00:26:56,739 --> 00:26:54,679 leading you at some points it was you 649 00:26:58,719 --> 00:26:56,749 were leading them and it was like you 650 00:27:00,969 --> 00:26:58,729 were working in tandem with what you 651 00:27:03,580 --> 00:27:00,979 were actually out there to try to 652 00:27:05,769 --> 00:27:03,590 uncover like that yeah they were telling 653 00:27:08,489 --> 00:27:05,779 your story while you were telling theirs 654 00:27:10,899 --> 00:27:08,499 and I found that very fascinating this 655 00:27:12,940 --> 00:27:10,909 even in the first two episodes you guys 656 00:27:16,180 --> 00:27:12,950 just there were so many different terms 657 00:27:18,519 --> 00:27:16,190 and like in leads and you know I kind of 658 00:27:20,379 --> 00:27:18,529 want to backtrack to David for a second 659 00:27:22,060 --> 00:27:20,389 here yes for anyone who may not have 660 00:27:24,940 --> 00:27:22,070 seen any of this yet and know what these 661 00:27:28,659 --> 00:27:24,950 emails actually were and why this all 662 00:27:32,169 --> 00:27:28,669 came to be yeah yeah this weird cryptic 663 00:27:34,269 --> 00:27:32,179 very both cryptic but also very 664 00:27:36,099 --> 00:27:34,279 articulate string of emails started to 665 00:27:39,070 --> 00:27:36,109 come to Greg and Dana from this this 666 00:27:42,249 --> 00:27:39,080 dude named David am I correct yeah so 667 00:27:46,359 --> 00:27:42,259 the the original going back to it in 668 00:27:48,339 --> 00:27:46,369 2012 create new Kurt he gets a string of 669 00:27:50,710 --> 00:27:48,349 emails from this guy who's claiming to 670 00:27:53,739 --> 00:27:50,720 be kind of terrorized and visited by 671 00:27:55,719 --> 00:27:53,749 these creatures that he believes are 672 00:27:57,879 --> 00:27:55,729 coming out of mine shaft on the back of 673 00:28:01,869 --> 00:27:57,889 his property he's in rural Eastern 674 00:28:06,489 --> 00:28:01,879 Kentucky kind of near the border and he 675 00:28:09,940 --> 00:28:06,499 like by night his daughter is seeing 676 00:28:11,680 --> 00:28:09,950 these creatures out behind the house and 677 00:28:12,879 --> 00:28:11,690 she's very bothered by them they're 678 00:28:14,950 --> 00:28:12,889 interested in her and they're like 679 00:28:16,299 --> 00:28:14,960 tapping on her windows and stuff in the 680 00:28:18,159 --> 00:28:16,309 night David 681 00:28:20,409 --> 00:28:18,169 the father is seeing evidence of this 682 00:28:23,529 --> 00:28:20,419 stuff by his yard being in disarray the 683 00:28:25,529 --> 00:28:23,539 next morning so he finally sees these 684 00:28:29,830 --> 00:28:25,539 things and starts trying to install 685 00:28:31,690 --> 00:28:29,840 motion-activated floodlights and that 686 00:28:33,489 --> 00:28:31,700 works for a time but then they come back 687 00:28:35,190 --> 00:28:33,499 and his family doesn't know what to do 688 00:28:39,759 --> 00:28:35,200 so they're reaching out to great because 689 00:28:42,259 --> 00:28:39,769 they got his name and contact info from 690 00:28:44,839 --> 00:28:42,269 this guy that a friend knows 691 00:28:47,329 --> 00:28:44,849 Terry wrists clearly a made-up name 692 00:28:49,190 --> 00:28:47,339 super elusive mysterious character there 693 00:28:52,279 --> 00:28:49,200 who comes back into it later 694 00:28:54,139 --> 00:28:52,289 and basically once Greg and Dana to come 695 00:28:55,759 --> 00:28:54,149 and blow up the mine and he's like you 696 00:28:57,049 --> 00:28:55,769 can film or do whatever you want but 697 00:29:00,440 --> 00:28:57,059 like I just want to be done with this 698 00:29:01,489 --> 00:29:00,450 but great can't get there because Dana's 699 00:29:03,829 --> 00:29:01,499 Canadian and they're going through 700 00:29:06,739 --> 00:29:03,839 immigration to bring her to the States 701 00:29:09,440 --> 00:29:06,749 so they can't get away and they wind up 702 00:29:11,239 --> 00:29:09,450 David winds up fleeing the house but in 703 00:29:12,979 --> 00:29:11,249 that time like I mean he sent pictures 704 00:29:15,019 --> 00:29:12,989 of the footprints that he was flying 705 00:29:16,869 --> 00:29:15,029 about this property sent pictures of the 706 00:29:19,099 --> 00:29:16,879 alleged creatures he was seeing 707 00:29:22,069 --> 00:29:19,109 basically just enough to get great super 708 00:29:24,019 --> 00:29:22,079 hooks before he disappeared and never 709 00:29:26,359 --> 00:29:24,029 reflected Greg ever again and then the 710 00:29:28,159 --> 00:29:26,369 case just gets bigger and later after 711 00:29:30,289 --> 00:29:28,169 that where you think that would be the 712 00:29:33,199 --> 00:29:30,299 last note the final note on it as a 713 00:29:35,930 --> 00:29:33,209 random anecdote it only got stranger 714 00:29:39,079 --> 00:29:35,940 yeah I did I mean the fact that this guy 715 00:29:41,389 --> 00:29:39,089 had evidence to show Greg that is what 716 00:29:44,779 --> 00:29:41,399 we all dream for whenever someone comes 717 00:29:47,449 --> 00:29:44,789 to me with a UFO sighting or encounter 718 00:29:50,629 --> 00:29:47,459 claim like I'm like cool do you have a 719 00:29:52,430 --> 00:29:50,639 photo do you have corroborating witness 720 00:29:54,889 --> 00:29:52,440 do you you know what can you show me 721 00:29:57,199 --> 00:29:54,899 that's gonna prompt me to actually go 722 00:30:00,739 --> 00:29:57,209 investigate this or or tell your story 723 00:30:02,690 --> 00:30:00,749 so I think it was really really telling 724 00:30:05,749 --> 00:30:02,700 that there were actually photos there 725 00:30:08,389 --> 00:30:05,759 were footprints and all these other 726 00:30:11,449 --> 00:30:08,399 other really interesting things you know 727 00:30:13,310 --> 00:30:11,459 testimony from the daughter even who it 728 00:30:16,819 --> 00:30:13,320 was strikingly similar what she was 729 00:30:19,279 --> 00:30:16,829 drawing and what she was seeing to the 730 00:30:21,229 --> 00:30:19,289 greys or even the Hopkinsville goblins 731 00:30:23,659 --> 00:30:21,239 like it was all there like this whole 732 00:30:27,079 --> 00:30:23,669 big weird soup was starting to a 733 00:30:30,289 --> 00:30:27,089 starting to boil over and eventually you 734 00:30:33,199 --> 00:30:30,299 know you guys were able to go to the 735 00:30:34,909 --> 00:30:33,209 house that was presumably David's is 736 00:30:38,029 --> 00:30:34,919 that correct what did this excursion 737 00:30:39,379 --> 00:30:38,039 eventually lead you all to to do Greg 738 00:30:42,199 --> 00:30:39,389 and Dana when they finally moved to 739 00:30:44,539 --> 00:30:42,209 Cincinnati they were nearby to Helier 740 00:30:48,440 --> 00:30:44,549 and so they took their first trip there 741 00:30:50,419 --> 00:30:48,450 in 2015 so about three years after they 742 00:30:53,209 --> 00:30:50,429 got the emails they were finally able to 743 00:30:54,680 --> 00:30:53,219 kind of check out the town that you know 744 00:30:55,409 --> 00:30:54,690 the story had kind of kept coming back 745 00:30:57,449 --> 00:30:55,419 into their life 746 00:30:59,310 --> 00:30:57,459 they were like we'll go check it out and 747 00:31:00,719 --> 00:30:59,320 in that during that visit they drove 748 00:31:02,310 --> 00:31:00,729 around just kind of seeing if they could 749 00:31:04,349 --> 00:31:02,320 find a house that might fit the 750 00:31:05,489 --> 00:31:04,359 description David gave and they saw 751 00:31:07,799 --> 00:31:05,499 along the side of the road that like 752 00:31:16,350 --> 00:31:07,809 they got really excited about that felt 753 00:31:23,070 --> 00:31:20,460 that's but look it's abandoned it looks 754 00:31:24,539 --> 00:31:23,080 like exercise equipment on it looks like 755 00:31:25,799 --> 00:31:24,549 it's been abandoned for like three years 756 00:31:28,230 --> 00:31:25,809 there's a basketball net back there 757 00:31:30,870 --> 00:31:28,240 that's where kids would be old 758 00:31:31,590 --> 00:31:30,880 Christmas lights still up yeah there's a 759 00:31:37,169 --> 00:31:31,600 shed 760 00:31:40,799 --> 00:31:37,179 is kind of weird cuz having been there 761 00:31:43,529 --> 00:31:40,809 now when we went back we were trying to 762 00:31:45,120 --> 00:31:43,539 find that house that they saw or another 763 00:31:48,659 --> 00:31:45,130 house that might fit the description and 764 00:31:51,659 --> 00:31:48,669 we found there were just smiles and 765 00:31:53,519 --> 00:31:51,669 miles miles of back roads that people's 766 00:31:56,460 --> 00:31:53,529 houses were along and half of them are 767 00:31:58,649 --> 00:31:56,470 like abandoned and half of a map shed so 768 00:32:00,090 --> 00:31:58,659 as you saw in the second episode like 769 00:32:01,889 --> 00:32:00,100 that was a real problem we were running 770 00:32:04,860 --> 00:32:01,899 into was a there's tons of houses that 771 00:32:08,190 --> 00:32:04,870 kind of fit but we couldn't find a house 772 00:32:09,720 --> 00:32:08,200 that was similar to we couldn't find the 773 00:32:11,940 --> 00:32:09,730 one that Greg and Dana saw originally 774 00:32:13,980 --> 00:32:11,950 this was well extraneous that's a little 775 00:32:16,740 --> 00:32:13,990 bit of a confusing point in the doc 776 00:32:19,289 --> 00:32:16,750 because we didn't know that that footage 777 00:32:22,830 --> 00:32:19,299 of the house existed until after we came 778 00:32:24,570 --> 00:32:22,840 back from the expedition so the linear 779 00:32:26,370 --> 00:32:24,580 narrative that everyone watches it with 780 00:32:29,700 --> 00:32:26,380 is a little misleading why we couldn't 781 00:32:31,289 --> 00:32:29,710 find it later but we struggled with that 782 00:32:33,269 --> 00:32:31,299 part where it was very hard to find that 783 00:32:36,629 --> 00:32:33,279 house they felt they found the first 784 00:32:39,419 --> 00:32:36,639 time that first whatever reason on a gut 785 00:32:41,730 --> 00:32:39,429 level really resonated with them which 786 00:32:44,700 --> 00:32:41,740 was interesting and will be interesting 787 00:32:48,149 --> 00:32:44,710 even past season one why that might have 788 00:32:51,120 --> 00:32:48,159 happened so the the quest for the house 789 00:32:52,440 --> 00:32:51,130 was one of the first things the first 790 00:32:54,330 --> 00:32:52,450 kind of tangible things that we were 791 00:32:56,220 --> 00:32:54,340 like let's go out and try to find this 792 00:32:57,750 --> 00:32:56,230 house that you guys saw is it still 793 00:32:59,759 --> 00:32:57,760 there you know is there any other houses 794 00:33:02,250 --> 00:32:59,769 but yeah 795 00:33:04,710 --> 00:33:02,260 there's a lot more than just like 20 796 00:33:06,720 --> 00:33:04,720 houses that constitute that area it's 797 00:33:09,600 --> 00:33:06,730 there's a lot of stuff over those woods 798 00:33:11,970 --> 00:33:09,610 yeah and I mean what what I'm sort of 799 00:33:14,490 --> 00:33:11,980 trying to get across to people who are 800 00:33:16,500 --> 00:33:14,500 going to see this too is that like it's 801 00:33:20,250 --> 00:33:16,510 not just finding the house it's finding 802 00:33:24,000 --> 00:33:20,260 David no one in Helier seems to really 803 00:33:27,360 --> 00:33:24,010 know of this guy or like ever heard of 804 00:33:28,980 --> 00:33:27,370 him which becomes a huge part of both 805 00:33:29,880 --> 00:33:28,990 the first you know the end of the first 806 00:33:31,950 --> 00:33:29,890 episode and 807 00:33:33,900 --> 00:33:31,960 second episode is even finding this 808 00:33:36,270 --> 00:33:33,910 individual one of the most

like a mine or a cave 834 00:34:48,930 --> 00:34:46,750 or something like that some kind of 835 00:34:51,419 --> 00:34:48,940 entrance and I know this place is just 836 00:34:53,159 --> 00:34:51,429 filled with that stuff yeah that was 837 00:34:56,070 --> 00:34:53,169 something that we could actually take 838 00:34:57,359 --> 00:34:56,080 steps to learn about and see if there 839 00:34:59,940 --> 00:34:57,369 was anything that would support or 840 00:35:02,609 --> 00:34:59,950 dispute that before we even got to the 841 00:35:05,550 --> 00:35:02,619 question of aliens the first question 842 00:35:08,040 --> 00:35:05,560 was whether this guy was even real yeah 843 00:35:10,650 --> 00:35:08,050 yeah so I mean that kind of propels us 844 00:35:14,160 --> 00:35:10,660 into Episode two the ink and black I 845 00:35:16,740 --> 00:35:14,170 love the title which is amazing yeah the 846 00:35:19,020 --> 00:35:16,750 reason this stood out to you is pretty 847 00:35:21,330 --> 00:35:19,030 mind-blowing the ink and black order to 848 00:35:23,310 --> 00:35:21,340 that but before we get to that this is 849 00:35:25,920 --> 00:35:23,320 the part of the investigation where 850 00:35:27,660 --> 00:35:25,930 Connor Rendell comes into play so can 851 00:35:29,810 --> 00:35:27,670 you sort of let us know who Connor is 852 00:35:31,320 --> 00:35:29,820 and what role he played in all of this 853 00:35:33,510 --> 00:35:31,330 yeah 854 00:35:35,250 --> 00:35:33,520 Connor Randall is he's one of my best 855 00:35:37,740 --> 00:35:35,260 friends we met up at the Stanley Hotel 856 00:35:39,300 --> 00:35:37,750 he was acting as a tour guide there on 857 00:35:41,000 --> 00:35:39,310 the property at that point and he was 858 00:35:44,330 --> 00:35:41,010 working with one of the 859 00:35:46,370 --> 00:35:44,340 taps affiliate teams out in Denver doing 860 00:35:49,130 --> 00:35:46,380 ghost hunts for presences and stuff like 861 00:35:51,620 --> 00:35:49,140 that so eventually as time went on he 862 00:35:53,480 --> 00:35:51,630 became one of the resident paranormal 863 00:35:56,060 --> 00:35:53,490 investigators alongside myself at the 864 00:35:57,430 --> 00:35:56,070

we're using or whether it's the next 873 00:36:20,990 --> 00:36:18,030 book on high strangeness which as you 874 00:36:23,210 --> 00:36:21,000 know when you meet people like that like 875 00:36:24,410 --> 00:36:23,220 they kind of click with you because 876 00:36:27,530 --> 00:36:24,420 there's a lot of people they just want 877 00:36:29,000 --> 00:36:27,540 to go out and be on TV without a camera

theories there's so much good stuff in 884 00:36:43,849 --> 00:36:41,550 these books when you find other people 885 00:36:45,109 --> 00:36:43,859 like that you instantly kind of know a 886 00:36:48,290 --> 00:36:45,119 kindred spirit 887 00:36:49,790 --> 00:36:48,300 so we yeah we just we've just gone back 888 00:36:52,280 --> 00:36:49,800 a long ways he was on spirits of the 889

Hellyer I had a buddy 892 00:37:02,960 --> 00:37:00,510 Rashad who works kind of in the film 893 00:37:06,590 --> 00:37:02,970 industry out in Denver and he does some 894 00:37:08,570 --> 00:37:06,600 camerawork and photography so managed to 895 00:37:11,060 --> 00:37:08,580 get him on board to come out to help me 896 00:37:13,670 --> 00:37:11,070 film it because I was gonna be directing 897 00:37:15,800 --> 00:37:13,680 and filming but also on camera so I was 898 00:37:18,320 --> 00:37:15,810 kind of I recognized early that I'd be 899 00:37:20,210 --> 00:37:18,330 spreading myself a little thin so I 900 00:37:21,890 --> 00:37:20,220 needed somebody else to hold a second 901 00:37:24,349 --> 00:37:21,900 camera and I wanted somebody else to 902 00:37:27,620 --> 00:37:24,359 kind

--> 00:37:32,190 of like jack-of-all-trades but also like 906 00:37:37,210 --> 00:37:35,190 he can help with the stuff investigating 907 00:37:39,890 --> 00:37:37,220 researching boots on the ground that 908 00:37:41,810 --> 00:37:39,900 sometimes I couldn't and he wound up 909 00:37:43,730 --> 00:37:41,820 becoming just an integral part of the 910 00:37:46,700 --> 00:37:43,740 team you know now now we can't do it 911 00:37:49,280 --> 00:37:46,710 without him so he was a came out as a 912 00:37:51,050 --> 00:37:49,290 helper and friend and turned into a core 913 00:37:53,990 --> 00:37:51,060 team member on the hook 914 00:37:57,290 --> 00:37:54,000 if these goblins that we're looking for 915 00:38:00,290 --> 00:37:57,300 or other beings are here in this 916 00:38:03,020 --> 00:38:00,300 community you would expect that they 917 00:38:04,970 --> 00:38:03,030 would know that we're here and so why 918 00:38:06,320 --> 00:38:04,980 not go out and investigate in right at 919 00:38:09,350 --> 00:38:06,330 the place we were staying and we were in 920 00:38:13,700 --> 00:38:09,360 town we were in the area and the woods 921 00:38:16,610 --> 00:38:13,710 were right there so let's go see yeah I 922 00:38:20,390 --> 00:38:16,620 mean he kind of propelled what I assume 923 00:38:23,420 --> 00:38:20,400 is going to be a whole new ball field in 924 00:38:26,930 --> 00:38:23,430 Episode three you and Connor you start 925 00:38:28,940 --> 00:38:26,940 making these discoveries separately from 926 00:38:31,400 --> 00:38:28,950 Greg and Dana which was really cool too 927 00:38:33,560 --> 00:38:31,410 like you said like you're not only the 928 00:38:37,340 --> 00:38:33,570 filmmaker you're an investigator on this 929 00:38:40,010 --> 00:38:37,350 so when you start to become a part of it 930 00:38:41,150 --> 00:38:40,020 and have your own theories it's good to 931 00:38:43,340 --> 00:38:41,160 know that there are other people around 932 00:38:45,830 --> 00:38:43,350 there to capture that for you so you can 933 00:38:47,690 --> 00:38:45,840 sort of live in that moment and one of 934 00:38:50,570 --> 00:38:47,700 the big ones came in the form of a book 935 00:38:56,600 --> 00:38:50,580 by Allen Greenfield who I have a crazy 936 00:38:59,000 --> 00:38:56,610 story about as well so what is that book 937 00:39:01,810 --> 00:38:59,010 Carlin what connections did he find to 938 00:39:04,700 --> 00:39:01,820 you the case you were investigating so 939 00:39:07,220 --> 00:39:04,710 Terry wrist he's this enigmatic figure 940 00:39:09,200 --> 00:39:07,230 that David named

00:39:12,420 it his friend said I can't help but I 944 00:39:17,570 --> 00:39:13,770 know somebody who might be able to help 945 00:39:20,270 --> 00:39:17,580 his friend was named David's friends 946

verbalize it is 949 00:39:29,560 --> 00:39:27,600 pretty clearly a play on the word 950 00:39:31,640 --> 00:39:29,570 terrorist it's a pseudonym right and 951 00:39:34,460 --> 00:39:31,650 apparently it's that Terry wrist figure 952 00:39:36,200 --> 00:39:34,470 that passes along Gregg's name to David 953 00:39:39,020 --> 00:39:36,210 which was super weird at that time 954 00:39:41,150 --> 00:39:39,030 because Craig was a ghost hunter they 955 00:39:44,120 --> 00:39:41,160 were putting together at that point if 956 00:39:46,250 --> 00:39:44,130 not in the midst of just starting up 957

greediness started as kids 960 00:39:54,950 --> 00:39:53,280 really into it and then they kind of 961 00:39:57,260 --> 00:39:54,960 went to the like satirical side making 962 00:39:59,690 --> 00:39:57,270 fun of everything and then they you know 963 00:40:02,090 --> 00:39:59,700 kind of grew back up into the research 964 00:40:04,430 --> 00:40:02,100 of it you know we're all kids and and 965 00:40:04,760 --> 00:40:04,440 David reaches out through Greg's old 966 00:40:07,430 --> 00:40:04,770 high 967 00:40:09,200 --> 00:40:07,440 school irreverent goes hunting website 968 00:40:11,060 --> 00:40:09,210 so just all this weird stuff like who's 969 00:40:12,440 --> 00:40:11,070 Terry risk that's like even offering 970 00:40:14,630 --> 00:40:12,450 these guys to help when they're just 971 00:40:18,080 --> 00:40:14,640 like some goofball ragtag teenage 972 00:40:20,630 --> 00:40:18,090 paranormal team the super odd so anyways 973 00:40:22,880 --> 00:40:20,640 the only connection great could find to 974 00:40:23,390 --> 00:40:22,890 terry wrists was by reading a google 975 00:40:26,480 --> 00:40:23,400 search 976 00:40:28,910 --> 00:40:26,490 he found an interview with a terry 977 00:40:30,860 --> 00:40:28,920 wrists in the back of a 1994 book by 978 00:40:34,010 --> 00:40:30,870 alan greenfield called secret cipher and 979 00:40:38,420 --> 00:40:34,020 the youth nuts which was all about these 980 00:40:41,810 --> 00:40:38,430 the connections between UFOs and like 981 00:40:44,570 --> 00:40:41,820 magic and like old channeling spirits 982 00:40:46,790 --> 00:40:44,580 all kind of very valley in kind of some 983 00:40:48,440 --> 00:40:46,800 of those connections but apparently his 984 00:40:51,680 --> 00:40:48,450 his thesis was that they communicate 985 00:40:54,080 --> 00:40:51,690 through these coded messages and that 986 00:40:56,420 --> 00:40:54,090 via some of the work of Aleister Crowley 987 00:40:58,940 --> 00:40:56,430 and a lot of magicians since they 988 00:41:01,280 --> 00:40:58,950 cracked this code and his whole book it 989 00:41:02,750 --> 00:41:01,290 is about how to crack the code and Terry 990 00:41:05,330 --> 00:41:02,760 wrists at the end of it is being 991 00:41:07,970 --> 00:41:05,340 interviewed and he talks about how he 992 00:41:10,640 --> 00:41:07,980 got on at one point and infiltrated an 993 00:41:14,300 --> 00:41:10,650 underground alien cave base with a bunch 994 00:41:17,090 --> 00:41:14,310 of Vietnam vets back in the 80s or the 995 00:41:19,970 --> 00:41:17,100 70s some time and that connected with 996 00:41:21,740 --> 00:41:19,980 that underground sort of theory that 997 00:41:23,720 --> 00:41:21,750 Grady Nina and I've been operating after 998 00:41:26,210 --> 00:41:23,730 this Helier case and that was kind of 999 00:41:29,060 --> 00:41:26,220 their only connection well like a year 1000 00:41:31,850 --> 00:41:29,070 later they get an email very cryptic and 1001 00:41:33,530 --> 00:41:31,860 spooky from this Terry wrist figure they 1002 00:41:35,930 --> 00:41:33,540 can't tell from the first one if it's 1003 00:41:37,370 --> 00:41:35,940 fake or not just like a troll but by the 1004 00:41:41,360 --> 00:41:37,380 second one it seems like there's some 1005 00:41:43,610 --> 00:41:41,370 actual info that this like any any faker 1006 00:41:45,830 --> 00:41:43,620 any troll should not have known so the 1007 00:41:47,810 --> 00:41:45,840 terrorist side kind of took the place 1008 00:41:49,850 --> 00:41:47,820 once David disappeared the terrorist 1009 00:41:52,270 --> 00:41:49,860 stuff instantly kind of threw the whole 1010 00:41:54,800 --> 00:41:52,280 thing into this bigger weirdly 1011 00:41:57,350 --> 00:41:54,810 conspiracy cryptic figure bigger 1012 00:41:59,750 --> 00:41:57,360 implications kind of mythos and it was 1013 00:42:01,700 --> 00:41:59,760 in the second episode that we kind of 1014 00:42:03,350 --> 00:42:01,710 utilized that book to make a bigger 1015 00:42:06,050 --> 00:42:03,360 connection that Greg and Dana had 1016 00:42:07,870 --> 00:42:06,060 noticed before yeah and I mean the 1017 00:42:10,340 --> 00:42:07,880 minute I heard Alan Greenfields name 1018 00:42:12,259 --> 00:42:10,350 mentioned and then the book title I got 1019 00:42:14,929 --> 00:42:12,269 chills because 1020 00:42:17,089 --> 00:42:14,939 for those who don't know like Greenfield 1021 00:42:21,349 --> 00:42:17,099 is he's pretty well-known in the UFO 1022 00:42:24,109 --> 00:42:21,359 circles but he's very fringe very 1023 00:42:27,289 --> 00:42:24,119 out-there very like trying to come up 1024 00:42:29,239 --> 00:42:27,299 with new theories and so early on in the 1025 00:42:30,679 --> 00:42:29,249 the early days of somewhere in the skies 1026 00:42:33,739 --> 00:42:30,689 I wanted to get him on I wanted to 1027 00:42:36,529 --> 00:42:33,749 really start with they're really out 1028 00:42:38,749 --> 00:42:36,539 there stuff so I reached out to him 1029 00:42:41,449 --> 00:42:38,759 about a week later he got back to me he 1030 00:42:44,319 --> 00:42:41,459 said awesome let's do it I'll send you a 1031 00:42:47,899 --> 00:42:44,329 book and go through it and then we'll 1032 00:42:50,709 --> 00:42:47,909 we'll go from there so week goes by a 1033 00:42:54,109 --> 00:42:50,719 month goes by two months goes by and 1034 00:42:57,439 --> 00:42:54,119 nothing nothing and I'm like oh I'll 1035 00:43:00,019 --> 00:42:57,449 send him another email see what happens 1036 00:43:03,379 --> 00:43:00,029 and I didn't get anything back from him 1037 00:43:05,419 --> 00:43:03,389 email wise but finally that an envelope 1038 00:43:09,199 --> 00:43:05,429 showed up in my mailbox looked all 1039 00:43:11,929 --> 00:43:09,209 beaten up and everything and I saw his 1040 00:43:15,259 --> 00:43:11,939 address on there oh my god finally like 1041 00:43:18,229 --> 00:43:15,269 I could do this interview so I get the 1042 00:43:21,109 --> 00:43:18,239 book out and it looks cool covers 1043 00:43:22,369 --> 00:43:21,119 awesome and I'm just ready to devour it 1044 00:43:24,799 --> 00:43:22,379 and I don't think I've ever told this 1045 00:43:27,679 --> 00:43:24,809 story on the show I go to like the first 1046 00:43:31,609 --> 00:43:27,689 couple pages and I notice that the way 1047 00:43:35,239 --> 00:43:31,619 the book was printed the text was like 1048 00:43:38,749 --> 00:43:35,249 very diagonal and just shooting off of 1049 00:43:42,109 --> 00:43:38,759 the page so clearly it was printed wrong 1050 00:43:44,239 --> 00:43:42,119 and Ellen hadn't realized that before he 1051 00:43:46,429 --> 00:43:44,249 sent it so I couldn't read half of the 1052 00:43:48,589 --> 00:43:46,439 text that was on the page I thought oh 1053 00:43:51,349 --> 00:43:48,599 maybe it was like the first page no the 1054 00:43:53,329 --> 00:43:51,359 entire book was like printed one way 1055 00:43:55,219 --> 00:43:53,339 diagonally another page was printed the 1056 00:43:56,929 --> 00:43:55,229 other way so I'm like how how is that 1057 00:44:00,049 --> 00:43:56,939 even possible like my dad's in the 1058 00:44:01,669 --> 00:44:00,059 breeding industry I know like if you're 1059 00:44:03,319 --> 00:44:01,679 if you're printing and binding the book 1060 00:44:05,179 --> 00:44:03,329 it's all gonna like be going the same 1061 00:44:07,189 --> 00:44:05,189 way but what I found even more 1062 00:44:10,549 --> 00:44:07,199 interesting about is the there were 1063 00:44:14,119 --> 00:44:10,559 things in that text that were scribbled 1064 00:44:17,059 --> 00:44:14,129 over or like blacked out and I'm just 1065 00:44:19,909 --> 00:44:17,069 like what is what is going on here like 1066 00:44:21,979 --> 00:44:19,919 did he do this on purpose was this like 1067 00:44:25,850 --> 00:44:21,989 some weird marketing ploy that he was 1068 00:44:29,750 --> 00:44:25,860 doing like ah the real books on its way 1069 00:44:33,560 --> 00:44:29,760 so I I laughed about it at the time and 1070 00:44:35,240 --> 00:44:33,570 I took some photos of it and I went back 1071 00:44:37,540 --> 00:44:35,250 to my email and I sent him photos I'm 1072 00:44:41,060 --> 00:44:37,550 like hey red what's going on with this 1073 00:44:43,580 --> 00:44:41,070 didn't hear from him since and I forgot 1074 00:44:45,350 --> 00:44:43,590 to interview him so I don't know what 1075 00:44:48,020 --> 00:44:45,360 that is all about I've reached out to 1076 00:44:50,690 --> 00:44:48,030 him on social networks I'm not saying 1077 00:44:54,050 --> 00:44:50,700 it's some grand conspiracy but something 1078 00:44:55,730 --> 00:44:54,060 weird definitely happened it took two 1079 00:44:57,350 --> 00:44:55,740 and a half months for him to get it to 1080 00:44:59,780 --> 00:44:57,360 me and then for it to show up in that 1081 00:45:01,400 --> 00:44:59,790 condition I don't know I don't know what 1082 00:45:04,640 --> 00:45:01,410 to make of all that but when was it a 1083 00:45:06,860 --> 00:45:04,650 secret cypher yes it was yeah of course 1084 00:45:08,930 --> 00:45:06,870 of course it was so well curious know 1085 00:45:11,210 --> 00:45:08,940 about like stuff being scribbled out and 1086 00:45:14,420 --> 00:45:11,220 what because you know of course we've 1087 00:45:16,490 --> 00:45:14,430 been poring over that book such as kind 1088 00:45:18,230 --> 00:45:16,500 of interesting is like what miserable 1089 00:45:19,700 --> 00:45:18,240 doubt is just weird because you know if 1090 00:45:21,410 --> 00:45:19,710 it came from the printers you know 1091 00:45:23,330 --> 00:45:21,420 you're gonna know that it's a misprint 1092 00:45:24,740 --> 00:45:23,340 long before you scribble stuff out 1093 00:45:26,840 --> 00:45:24,750 before you send it to somebody so that 1094 00:45:28,520 --> 00:45:26,850 that feels unusual that there's like an 1095 00:45:31,580 --> 00:45:28,530 actual human interaction with this 1096 00:45:33,680 --> 00:45:31,590 misprint text oh yeah in like I at first 1097 00:45:35,300 --> 00:45:33,690 there's like maybe it's like embedded 1098 00:45:37,610 --> 00:45:35,310 into the printing maybe this is like a 1099 00:45:40,280 --> 00:45:37,620 cool way that he wanted it to be to be 1100 00:45:42,230 --> 00:45:40,290 read or seen visually but um you know 1101 00:45:45,410 --> 00:45:42,240 the closer I looked like it looked like 1102 00:45:47,240 --> 00:45:45,420 actual pen ink so I don't know I don't 1103 00:45:49,340 --> 00:45:47,250 know what to make of all of it but I 1104 00:45:53,720 --> 00:45:49,350 would love to cross-reference like what 1105 00:45:55,520 --> 00:45:53,730 what was scratched out and redacted with 1106 00:45:57,530 --> 00:45:55,530 you guys so I will definitely get those 1107 00:45:59,750 --> 00:45:57,540 photos over to you might post them on 1108 00:46:03,020 --> 00:45:59,760 the on the Facebook page or something - 1109 00:46:05,090 --> 00:46:03,030 I still have the book thank you 1110 00:46:07,880 --> 00:46:05,100 so we'll dig deeper into that but yeah I 1111 00:46:12,350 --> 00:46:07,890 was very intrigued when that whole 1112 00:46:14,120 --> 00:46:12,360 aspect of all of this came about yes so 1113 00:46:15,530 --> 00:46:14,130 it was cool to see that the connections 1114 00:46:19,430 --> 00:46:15,540 that would eventually make with Greg and 1115 00:46:21,560 --> 00:46:19,440 Dana so you guys you start digging and 1116 00:46:23,320 --> 00:46:21,570 Hellyer's start talking to locals and 1117 00:46:26,810 --> 00:46:23,330 talking to everyone about things they've 1118 00:46:28,490 --> 00:46:26,820 experienced and it's not easy first of 1119 00:46:31,250 --> 00:46:28,500 all they get anyone to talk but second 1120 00:46:35,360 --> 00:46:31,260 to actually find anyone who's a heard of 1121 00:46:38,420 --> 00:46:35,370 David or be like seeing something so 1122 00:46:39,200 --> 00:46:38,430 what was that this is where it really 1123 00:46:40,819 --> 00:46:39,210 rang true from 1124 00:46:43,010 --> 00:46:40,829 the reality aspect of this whole 1125 00:46:45,410 --> 00:46:43,020 documentary is those dead ends you come 1126 00:46:47,450 --> 00:46:45,420 across so what was that frustration like 1127 00:46:49,940 --> 00:46:47,460 that despair sort of creeping in that 1128 00:46:52,790 --> 00:46:49,950 you were hitting every dead-end it you 1129 00:46:54,920 --> 00:46:52,800 seemed to hit in this in the first two 1130 00:46:57,020 --> 00:46:54,930 episodes so as a director filmmaker 1131 00:46:58,490 --> 00:46:57,030 where was her headspace during all that 1132 00:47:00,410 --> 00:46:58,500 I mean at that point it was kind of all 1133 00:47:02,510 --> 00:47:00,420 over the place because you know I'd 1134 00:47:04,010 --> 00:47:02,520 heard the story from Greg on the podcast 1135 00:47:06,770 --> 00:47:04,020 that the first time they went to hell 1136 00:47:08,270 --> 00:47:06,780 here they stopped in it one of these gas 1137 00:47:09,799 --> 00:47:08,280 stations was in town was kind of a 1138 00:47:10,970 --> 00:47:09,809 central hub of the town and they just 1139 00:47:12,589 --> 00:47:10,980 had people start coming out of the 1140 00:47:15,140 --> 00:47:12,599 woodwork with stories about different 1141 00:47:18,170 --> 00:47:15,150 levels of weirdness and UFO was a 1142 00:47:21,020 --> 00:47:18,180 Bigfoot cross in the road and so we were 1143 00:47:23,480 --> 00:47:21,030 all kind of expecting you know as much 1144 00:47:25,790 --> 00:47:23,490 as we could keeping open minds that when 1145 00:47:27,380 --> 00:47:25,800 we went back to Helier we'd post up at 1146 00:47:29,690 --> 00:47:27,390 that gas station and people would be 1147 00:47:31,910 --> 00:47:29,700 like oh yeah you know like I'd have more 1148 00:47:33,170 --> 00:47:31,920 stories of that that we would shoot and 1149 00:47:36,200 --> 00:47:33,180 we just didn't have that that first 1150 00:47:39,170 --> 00:47:36,210 night now granted my headspace of course 1151 00:47:40,549 --> 00:47:39,180 like I'm an introvert you know I I don't 1152 00:47:42,559 --> 00:47:40,559 like to call too much attention to 1153 00:47:45,430 --> 00:47:42,569 myself but here we are we post up at 1154 00:47:47,799 --> 00:47:45,440 that gas station it's like there's five 1155 00:47:52,849 --> 00:47:47,809 non-locals hanging out and it's like 1156 00:47:54,710 --> 00:47:52,859 kind of sketchy also rural area just 1157 00:47:56,569 --> 00:47:54,720 like basically everything short of 1158 00:47:58,549 --> 00:47:56,579 having a sign posted that said tell us 1159 00:48:00,920 --> 00:47:58,559 your weird story there was a lot of 1160 00:48:02,690 --> 00:48:00,930 suspicion directed at us and we were 1161 00:48:04,880 --> 00:48:02,700 trying to mask our own suspicions 1162 00:48:07,730 --> 00:48:04,890 directed at others and you know it was 1163 00:48:10,609 --> 00:48:07,740 just awkward just human awkward of being 1164 00:48:12,440 --> 00:48:10,619 in a new place so I was kind of hanging 1165 00:48:13,970 --> 00:48:12,450 back our cameraman was shot he was 1166 00:48:16,549 --> 00:48:13,980 shooting the whole thing with like a 1167 00:48:17,930 --> 00:48:16,559 tiny little camera that's you know 1168 00:48:21,339 --> 00:48:17,940 obviously was not calling too much 1169 00:48:24,710 --> 00:48:21,349 attention to to what we were doing and 1170 00:48:27,109 --> 00:48:24,720 we popped in to the gas station a couple 1171 00:48:29,450 --> 00:48:27,119 of times started some conversations a 1172 00:48:31,190 --> 00:48:29,460 couple of people came by but like that 1173 00:48:33,260 --> 00:48:31,200 whole feeling of just like oh yeah you 1174 00:48:34,940 --> 00:48:33,270 know like if someone had a story great 1175 00:48:36,500 --> 00:48:34,950 if they didn't have a story that usually 1176 00:48:37,910 --> 00:48:36,510 knew someone that was into this who had 1177 00:48:38,990 --> 00:48:37,920 a story because that's how it spread the 1178 00:48:41,990 --> 00:48:39,000 first time everyone started calling 1179 00:48:43,940 --> 00:48:42,000 people this time everyone's like now I 1180 00:48:45,859 --> 00:48:43,950 mean I'd love to help but I don't really 1181 00:48:48,289 --> 00:48:45,869 know any weirdness like there was just 1182 00:48:51,380 --> 00:48:48,299 nothing that first night so that was 1183 00:48:52,270 --> 00:48:51,390 intriguing I think the more you get into 1184 00:48:54,160 --> 00:48:52,280 research 1185 00:48:55,960 --> 00:48:54,170 you know putting aside my own filmmaking 1186 00:48:57,250 --> 00:48:55,970 tendencies more you get into research 1187 00:48:59,650 --> 00:48:57,260 you're kind of used to the fact that 1188 00:49:01,690 --> 00:48:59,660 sometimes this phenomena is on and 1189 00:49:03,190 --> 00:49:01,700 sometimes it's off and to me that's 1190 00:49:04,420 --> 00:49:03,200 always you know the Stanley Hotel taught 1191 00:49:06,849 --> 00:49:04,430 me that like there's plenty of off 1192 00:49:08,500 --> 00:49:06,859 nights that it's always made it more 1193 00:49:11,020 --> 00:49:08,510 interesting to me when there's off 1194 00:49:13,809 --> 00:49:11,030 nights because if we're looking at 1195 00:49:15,730 --> 00:49:13,819 something that you know doesn't exist or 1196 00:49:18,130 --> 00:49:15,740 she's kind of out there like you're 1197 00:49:20,440 --> 00:49:18,140 gonna for the most part any random 1198 00:49:22,839 --> 00:49:20,450 sampling is gonna kind of give you the 1199 00:49:24,190 --> 00:49:22,849 same amount of like false leads right 1200 00:49:26,200 --> 00:49:24,200 you know you're gonna go talk to people 1201 00:49:29,349 --> 00:49:26,210 and they're gonna have the same amount 1202 00:49:31,000 --> 00:49:29,359 of like not true stories as any other 1203 00:49:33,819 --> 00:49:31,010 people you talk to at any other time in 1204 00:49:35,289 --> 00:49:33,829 the same place even but the fact that 1205 00:49:36,940 --> 00:49:35,299 sometimes people have a ton of stories 1206 00:49:38,950 --> 00:49:36,950 and sometimes people won't to me is the 1207 00:49:42,160 --> 00:49:38,960 same ways like a normal sampling of 1208 00:49:43,990 --> 00:49:42,170 people on a ghost hunt has a great night 1209 00:49:45,370 --> 00:49:44,000 and then another night a normal sampling 1210 00:49:47,920 --> 00:49:45,380 of people don't it's just kind of like 1211 00:49:49,120 --> 00:49:47,930 that difference that makes me inclined 1212 00:49:51,130 --> 00:49:49,130 to believe that something was actually 1213 00:49:53,049 --> 00:49:51,140 happening so that was interesting I mean 1214 00:49:55,750 --> 00:49:53,059 it's in and of itself that like it was 1215 00:49:57,490 --> 00:49:55,760 different but it did sort of also set 1216 00:49:59,829 --> 00:49:57,500 the tone of like well shoot this is 1217 00:50:01,750 --> 00:49:59,839 different now is this still a flap area 1218 00:50:04,329 --> 00:50:01,760 is there still something happened are we 1219 00:50:06,099 --> 00:50:04,339 gonna experience when we're here you 1220 00:50:08,530 --> 00:50:06,109 know there was some concern as just 1221 00:50:11,289 --> 00:50:08,540 someone who wanted it to be exciting and 1222 00:50:13,120 --> 00:50:11,299 crazy and weird you know so there was a 1223 00:50:15,160 --> 00:50:13,130 change there was a difference when we 1224 00:50:16,809 --> 00:50:15,170 had gotten there and that sort of idea 1225 00:50:20,460 --> 00:50:16,819 of likely dead end 1226 00:50:22,900 --> 00:50:20,470 that theme winds up being a really 1227 00:50:25,240 --> 00:50:22,910 recurring theme throughout the the first 1228 00:50:28,930 --> 00:50:25,250 season even but I mean dead ends lead to 1229 00:50:31,870 --> 00:50:28,940 like new explorations to which I was so 1230 00:50:34,780 --> 00:50:31,880 happy to see like not happy to see you 1231 00:50:37,390 --> 00:50:34,790 guys frustrated earthly feeling somewhat 1232 00:50:39,490 --> 00:50:37,400 defeated but that's what sets 1233 00:50:43,829 --> 00:50:39,500 I think this apart from many documentary 1234 00:50:47,920 --> 00:50:43,839 series or reality television is it's not 1235 00:50:50,140 --> 00:50:47,930 we don't have an edited filtered version 1236 00:50:52,900 --> 00:50:50,150 of the most exciting moments like we're 1237 00:50:55,059 --> 00:50:52,910 gonna see you guys in true investigative 1238 00:50:57,849 --> 00:50:55,069 form and there are some shitty days man 1239 00:51:00,400 --> 00:50:57,859 I have been there yeah sure but what I 1240 00:51:04,349 --> 00:51:00,410 really respected is by the end of 1241 00:51:05,440 --> 00:51:04,359 episode two you guys make your own 1242 00:51:07,059 --> 00:51:05,450 exploration 1243 00:51:08,230 --> 00:51:07,069 you're not done just because you can't 1244 00:51:10,690 --> 00:51:08,240 find David just because you're not 1245 00:51:13,690 --> 00:51:10,700 finding maybe the case reports you had 1246 00:51:16,150 --> 00:51:13,700 hoped for or sightings or testimony like 1247 00:51:20,200 --> 00:51:16,160 you're not done with Helier clearly by a 1248 00:51:23,140 --> 00:51:20,210 longshot and you guys decide to to start 1249 00:51:24,640 --> 00:51:23,150 to explore so we have the four of us 1250 00:51:32,670 --> 00:51:24,650 that are there and we're extremely 1251 00:51:34,380 --> 00:51:32,680 focused on content whatever was I 1252 00:51:42,260 --> 00:51:34,390 expected it 1253 00:51:47,760 --> 00:51:45,930 and Connor was really a big catalyst for 1254 00:51:52,020 --> 00:51:47,770 that too is to get you guys out there 1255 00:51:53,670 --> 00:51:52,030 and look at these caves again like I 1256 00:51:56,579 --> 00:51:53,680 know that's probably gonna play a big 1257 00:51:59,819 --> 00:51:56,589 part into this all too so could you 1258 00:52:02,790 --> 00:51:59,829 maybe hint to us a little about what 1259 00:52:04,980 --> 00:52:02,800 comes next in Helier after episode two 1260 00:52:09,240 --> 00:52:04,990 and where this series might be heading 1261 00:52:10,920 --> 00:52:09,250 absolutely yeah basically from all the 1262 00:52:13,349 --> 00:52:10,930 early research and everything we knew 1263 00:52:17,309 --> 00:52:13,359 about the area was that this phenomena 1264 00:52:20,099 --> 00:52:17,319 was seemingly bigger than David and his 1265 00:52:23,250 --> 00:52:20,109 mineshaft it seemed like this was a 1266 00:52:24,960 --> 00:52:23,260 phenomena that stretched hundreds of 1267 00:52:26,760 --> 00:52:24,970 miles between Eastern and Western 1268 00:52:29,880 --> 00:52:26,770 Kentucky but also up through the 1269 00:52:31,620 --> 00:52:29,890 Appalachians and that's a cave system 1270 00:52:33,660 --> 00:52:31,630 that's one of the the biggest in the 1271 00:52:37,349 --> 00:52:33,670 world is the mammoth cave system under 1272 00:52:41,460 --> 00:52:37,359 Kentucky and the area of Hellyer itself 1273 00:52:44,069 --> 00:52:41,470 at least from two years before seemed to 1274 00:52:46,140 --> 00:52:44,079 be a real kind of hotbed of high 1275 00:52:47,550 --> 00:52:46,150 strangeness and paranormal activity that 1276 00:52:49,200 --> 00:52:47,560 could have been a flat area in general 1277 00:52:52,500 --> 00:52:49,210 meanwhile we're having all these 1278 00:52:55,230 --> 00:52:52,510 connections to the Mothman Prophecies as 1279 00:52:58,020 --> 00:52:55,240 a we sort of hinted at earlier so it had 1280 00:53:00,180 --> 00:52:58,030 the scope and scale and almost 1281 00:53:02,940 --> 00:53:00,190 intelligence to it that seemed kind of 1282 00:53:04,950 --> 00:53:02,950 aware of us and because of that scope 1283 00:53:06,990 --> 00:53:04,960 and scale in a supernatural and a 1284 00:53:08,910 --> 00:53:07,000 physical sense we were like you know 1285 00:53:10,349 --> 00:53:08,920 what that first one at the end of 1286 00:53:12,540 --> 00:53:10,359 episode two we were like you know what 1287 00:53:14,220 --> 00:53:12,550 let's just like there's forest and 1288 00:53:17,339 --> 00:53:14,230 wilderness all around this cabin we're 1289 00:53:19,140 --> 00:53:17,349 staying at let's go and try to make 1290 00:53:22,859 --> 00:53:19,150 contact if there is some sort of like 1291 00:53:25,740 --> 00:53:22,869 broader nature to the phenomena we're 1292 00:53:27,450 --> 00:53:25,750 trying to get in touch with maybe it's 1293 00:53:29,370 --> 00:53:27,460 right here right now and we can just 1294 00:53:31,559 --> 00:53:29,380 reach out so our first one was kind of 1295 00:53:35,040 --> 00:53:31,569 like a local safe dabbling to try to 1296 00:53:36,390 --> 00:53:35,050 make contact with this and yeah they 1297 00:53:38,400 --> 00:53:36,400 might be these little creatures that are 1298 00:53:40,650 --> 00:53:38,410 coming out of caves but because of the 1299 00:53:42,450 --> 00:53:40,660 bigger nature you get tons of UFO 1300 00:53:43,859 --> 00:53:42,460 stories as you know that have a psychic 1301 00:53:47,940 --> 00:53:43,869 element that's actually one of the 1302 00:53:51,030 --> 00:53:47,950 recurring themes of yeah you for not you 1303 00:53:53,550 --> 00:53:51,040 know contact like alien communication 1304 00:53:54,450 --> 00:53:53,560 it's like there's a very recurring theme 1305 00:53:58,440 --> 00:53:54,460 of 1306 00:54:00,630 --> 00:53:58,450 telepathy and we don't know with the way 1307 00:54:03,089 --> 00:54:00,640 that these UFOs blink in and out of 1308 00:54:05,370 --> 00:54:03,099 reality these men in black things like 1309 00:54:07,529 --> 00:54:05,380 as you get to the bigger scope of this 1310 00:54:11,400 --> 00:54:07,539 stuff there's a sort of intangibility 1311 00:54:13,549 --> 00:54:11,410 aspect that made us wonder can we kind 1312 00:54:17,099 --> 00:54:13,559 of apply some coaxed hunting techniques 1313 00:54:19,440 --> 00:54:17,109 that we've been using to these entities 1314 00:54:22,049 --> 00:54:19,450 somehow like could we communicate that 1315 00:54:23,760 --> 00:54:22,059 way so that's where you kind of see the 1316 00:54:25,109 --> 00:54:23,770 next episode the third episode will take 1317 00:54:27,539 --> 00:54:25,119 off with that first kind of 1318 00:54:29,069 --> 00:54:27,549 investigation that for a lot of 1319 00:54:32,880 --> 00:54:29,079 intensive purposes kind of looks like a 1320 00:54:34,529 --> 00:54:32,890 ghost on in some ways outside and we're 1321 00:54:37,049 --> 00:54:34,539 basically trying to make contact on a 1322 00:54:40,349 --> 00:54:37,059 more spiritual level with these possible 1323 00:54:43,349 --> 00:54:40,359 entities and we get some pretty weird 1324 00:54:45,390 --> 00:54:43,359 stuff from that yeah and that's also not 1325 00:54:48,329 --> 00:54:45,400 the only investigation we do there in 1326 00:54:51,630 --> 00:54:48,339 the season that provide us with a lot of 1327 00:54:55,049 --> 00:54:51,640 little bits and pieces that start to 1328 00:54:57,029 --> 00:54:55,059 apply later on that really kind of 1329 00:55:00,660 --> 00:54:57,039 scramble our brains in terms of what was 1330 00:55:02,220 --> 00:55:00,670 happening there I am so excited guys 1331 00:55:05,010 --> 00:55:02,230 they're bridging the gaps between all 1332 00:55:08,880 --> 00:55:05,020 these these fields and camps and that's 1333 00:55:11,609 --> 00:55:08,890 it seems to be that the this phenomena I 1334 00:55:14,029 --> 00:55:11,619 want to say is leading you down all 1335 00:55:16,769 --> 00:55:14,039 these different approaches and 1336 00:55:19,049 --> 00:55:16,779 explorations and whether it's all 1337 00:55:20,970 --> 00:55:19,059 controlled and they are you know 1338 00:55:23,190 --> 00:55:20,980 bringing you guys along for the ride or 1339 00:55:26,430 --> 00:55:23,200 and you're bringing them along I can't 1340 00:55:28,200
