Of all these phenomena that
happened when you were here,
and may contain
mature subject matter.

-what do you think it is?
-It's a portal.

-You got the trackers?
-Got the trackers.

THOMAS:
Each cow we put on the place
becomes a biosensor.

Animals seem to have
that sixth sense.

KRIS:
There was matted grass

where something heavy had sat.

I presume

that it was a spaceship.

Have you ever tried
to open up a portal?

That I haven't done, but we're
gonna give it a shot tonight.

TRAVIS:
Look, you can see the mesa
glow in that camera.

ERIK (over radio):
Thomas has spotted

a light.

Hey, hey, hey, hey. Right here.

NARRATOR:
There is a ranch
in Northern Utah.

It is considered the epicenter

of the strangest and most
disturbing phenomena on Earth:

animal mutilations,

bizarre UFO sightings

and unusual energies that have
proven harmful to humans.

For 20 years,
the federal government

tried to find answers
and failed.

Now a new team
of dedicated scientists,

researchers and experts
has taken over.

They are determined to solve
the mystery and reveal...

...The Secret
of Skinwalker Ranch.

Is this your guy?

Hey, guys. I want you
to meet Pete Kelsey.

-Hi, Pete. I'm Bryant.
-Hey, Bryant.

TRAVIS: Erik invited Pete
Kelsey, who's a lidar expert,

out to the ranch to help us
with a follow-up investigation

on Homestead Two.

After our meeting last week
with retired Army colonel

John Alexander, who believes
that portals might exist there,

we conducted a laser experiment
to try and prove it.

No definitive evidence
was obtained,

but we did experience
a sudden drop in temperature

-inside the old building.
-BRYANT: Hey, Travis.

Did you feel
that temperature drop?

TRAVIS:
And then we saw a strange light
in the field nearby.

And that indicates
that something was happening.

Wait, wait, stop.
Thought I saw something move.

We've got these sites
on that end of the ranch

that, uh, we would really like
to get a higher resolution

imagery of and maybe even
a 3D model if, you know,

-if that-that works out.
-That's what I do.

Great, get your equipment, let's
load up and let's go down, then.

If the lidar scanning device
that Pete has brought

can create a 3D image
of the homestead area,

and we see anomalies in
the visual data such as bends

or strange shapes
that shouldn't be there...

Y'all ready?

...we can then pinpoint
those exact spots

for more precise investigations

and hopefully figure out what
the heck is happening there.

PETE:
What's going on here?

Well, this is, uh,
what we call Homestead Two.

This area right here
is a hotbed of, uh, activity.

Obviously, we inherited
a narrative around here,

and a lot of the stories--
well, and even

some of the experiences
we have had personally--

have been centralized
around the old homesteads.

TRAVIS:
In addition to possible
portal phenomena,

there are lots of other stories
about Homestead Two

going back more than a century,

where early ranchers
and native people

believe they saw UFOs,
heard disembodied voices,

and even encountered
mysterious, wolf-like creatures.

I've got little bit
of a headache

or something happening.

Last year, I had my own
experience there

when I was hit by a dangerous
spike of ionizing radiation.

Mine's beeping.

And right afterwards,
really bizarre burn marks

appeared on my face and hand.

Anything we can learn
about this place,

I realize that this is
just geometric data

that we're getting, but
that's-that's where we start.

-Okay.
-Uh, you want, you want
to just start here

then and go through these?

Yeah, I think we use
the mobile handheld

'cause we can make
quick work of this.

This piece of gear
I have with me

is a SLAM-based scanner
called a hover map.

So SLAM scanning,
the SLAM stands

for Simultaneous Localization
and Mapping.

Just think of it as a-an amazing
laser scanner that can

create super, super accurate
three-dimensional data.

TRAVIS:
The lidar works by sending out

infrared laser beams that will

bounce off of any objects
or structures in the local area.

And this will ultimately
bounce back and be detected

and enable us to create
a 3D replica of the entire area.

Now, this is going to help us
look for strange phenomena

that might be at Homestead Two

that we can't see
with our naked eye.

So, I'm just gonna hit "scan."

It's gonna take a second.

You are scanning.

Off you go.

You can walk at normal speed.

And just sort of paint the air.

Just swing your arm in an arc.

Yeah, cause the more
that scanner head is pointed at,

the more data you're gonna get.

ERIK:
Okay, I'm gonna go
inside of this.

I'm gonna poke
my head back here.

I don't mind telling you
this place is creepy.

-Okay, I'm gonna be
coming back out.
-PETE: Okay. Sure.

And I'm going to swing
to the left.

And catch this space
between these two buildings.

-PETE: Just sweep with it
and you'll get more.
-Got it.

PETE:
There you go.

So, I'm gonna finish
this portion of the homestead

and then I'll probably make
a sweep back that way.

Okay.

-ERIK: Effectively, we've made
a complete loop on this...
-Yeah.

-...homestead.
-It's-it's gonna be good data.

-THOMAS: So you got
that covered?
-PETE: Yeah. I think so.

-TRAVIS: All right, guys,
we'll see y'all in a bit.
-THOMAS: Yep.

-Well, hello.
-JIM: Hey, guys.
How are you doing?

Hello there. Hey, Jim.

JIM:
I want to introduce you
to Roland, a very close friend

-and confidant.
-Hi.

-Kandus. Nice to meet you.
-This is Kandus. Roland.

-I'm Tom.
-TRAVIS: A couple weeks ago,

the family
of the late Junior Hicks,

a man who spent
more than 60 years documenting

the high strangeness
of Skinwalker Ranch

and the Uinta Basin,

shared some
of his archived research

to help us
with our investigations.

You know, I don't think
anybody's ever shown

data like that before.

Roland McCook is someone
who is not only referenced

in Junior Hicks' research
but also claims to have had

a traumatic experience
right at Homestead Two.

So, while we were waiting for
the lidar data to be processed,

Jim Morse was able to get Roland
to come and share his story.

So, you're very familiar
with this area.

Yeah, yeah. Yeah, it looks,
it looks a lot different.

-Does it?
-KANDUS: I bet.

ROLAND:
I was born and raised
here in the Basin.

Skinwalker Ranch was
approximately about

two to three miles
away from my house.

So, about ten years old,
I'd go up on top of these mesas

and hunt for rabbits.

What I saw, it's always
haunted me for years.

I stayed mainly
up on these ridges,

on the mesas rabbit-hunting,
and that house down there,

at that time, was abandoned,
with the trees around it.

-One of the homesteads?
-Yeah.

-Probably Homestead Two, yeah.
-Yeah. Yeah.
-Yeah.

And so, that's where things,
I think, started for me.

Should we-- do you want
to drive, Tom?

-(overlapping chatter)
-Great, let's go.

TOM:
This is really important,

to hear these stories,
because it's painting

a picture
of what this ranch is about,

and all the strange
phenomena that happens here.

You know,
there's the science side,

but there's also this
human aspect involved.

So, how does it feel
right now to be back here?

It's a little--
I'm a little nervous.

-JIM: Yeah.
-Not-not-- you know,
to be honest.

A little nervous. This is--
I think this is where it, um...

-Began?
-It-it began here, yeah.

The-the...
everything from there.

All-- everything...

went from there. Yeah.

-TOM: You okay?
-Yeah.

How did it start? Tell us--
Walk us through...

Well, when we was up there,
the weather was moving in

and we was looking
for a place to shelter,

um, get out of the weather.

We came in here,
and I didn't really want to go

into... all the way
into the building,

um, but the person
I was with, he just said,

"Come on in, let's get in
farther in, into the building."

And so, we went farther on in,

and when we got in there,
while we was waiting,

I was looking out the door
and I heard,

uh, like, scurrying.

(imitates scurrying sound)

Something moving, and I turn,

and farther in,
that back corner,

some stuff fell over,
just got knocked over.

I told him, "That sounds bigger
than a raccoon."

I took off, grabbed my gun,

-and out the door
I went after it.
-Wow.

ROLAND:
We thought it was raccoons
at the beginning,

raccoons or squirrels or mice
running around,

and then things started
getting knocked over,

and that's when we thought,
"Well, there's-there's

something else going on
in here,"

and then you get that cr--
kind of creepy feeling

that s-- there's something more.

We were looking,
looking for tracks.

We noticed there were
human footprints.

No shoes on.

It was like human footprints.

-TOM: Wow.
-JIM: In the snow?

In the snow, yeah.

And I followed the tracks,
and then all of a sudden

it turned from human footprints
to a big dog tracks.

Like a wolf.

This ground here is the gateway
for skinwalkers.

What I saw doesn't belong here.

-I'm a little nervous, hold on.
-Hey.

ERIK:
The temperature around
the homestead itself

-began to drop.
-TRAVIS: Whoa.

ROLAND: All of a sudden it
turned from human footprints

-to a big dog tracks.
-Yeah, yeah.

Like a wolf.

And it came out red eyes,
probably like eight feet tall.

And then it just,
it pointed at me.

Whatever it is
doesn't belong here.

We shot-- we started shooting,
he had a semiauto

and, "Pop, pop, pop, pop."

And all you hear is...

the biggest roar.

Just...
(imitates roar)

Loudest roar I ever heard.

And after that,
it just, it was gone.

We took off.

I've heard that this
ground here is the gateway

for these shape-shifters,
or these skinwalkers.

Yeah.

JIM:
The legend of the skinwalker

really initiated back
in the mid-1800s.

This is when the, uh,
Navajo and the Utes

got into more than a skirmish.

The, uh, Utes, they say,
were a-abusing the Navajo

at the time,
using them somewhat as slaves.

And the Navajos ended up
cursing, uh, the Utes.

BRANDON: And the Sherman family,
who lived on the property

in the 1990s, they encountered
these giant wolf-like creatures,

that the Native Americans
would refer to as skinwalkers,

that started attacking
their cattle, and were literally

impervious to, you know,
to gunshots.

What happened after that?

We got home.
We would-- I would...

...I would hear things
at night.

Things at the window.

I'd lay down and put
the pillow on my head,

and they'd come around,
and you could hear their hands

or claws just, like,
going across the building.

-Growling the whole time.
-Yeah.

And it still, you know,
that, it...

the vibration and everything
right to your soul and...

-Yeah. Oh, yeah.
-I was just, like,

-"What did we do?"
-Yeah.

-Hold on.
-Yeah.

-You okay? Hey.
-(grunting)

Is something hurt? You okay?

KANDUS:
Do you want to move away
from this building?

-Want to get away?
-Uh, yeah.

-I got a little dizzy there.
-Are you blacking out?

-JIM: Hold on to me.
-Getting dizzy?
-No, no,

-I think I'm okay now.
-Why don't you hang on to me?

-You okay?
-Hang on to me just for...

He was obviously very emotional,
and it all came to a head

when he just about
passed out on me.

You could-- I could see his eyes
roll back in his head

as he turned and looked at me,
and I think he just reached

his breaking point.

-Why don't you hang on?
-KANDUS: You okay?

-TOM: Hang on to me just for...
-ROLAND: Yeah.

TOM:
Strangely enough,
where Roland almost fainted was

right in front of the cistern
behind Homestead Two.

There's been some strange events
that have happened

in that exact spot.

That's where Travis Taylor
got radiation burns.

People visit that go catatonic
and, uh,

just lose their sense
of place and time.

-You still dizzy?
-ROLAND: No.

-I'm good. Yeah. Yeah.
-TOM: Yeah?

I think you're-you're
still a little shaky, man.

I'm just gonna s-stand
right here with you, okay?

JIM:
This area here can really...

-you can get disoriented
really, really fast.
-KANDUS: Yeah.

It's almost like it
just creeps up on you.

So, there is something
out here, Roland.

Yeah. Yeah.

What I saw, it--
I think it was a skinwalker.

And the feeling that I got, that
fear I had of it, came back.

That's hard to explain.

If you wouldn't mind,
guys, I'd like to

-be here by myself.
-JIM: Have a moment.

-And-and, yeah, have a moment.
-Absolutely.

-Just a little bit of closure.
-Absolutely.

We-We'll be here.
Thank you so much.

ROLAND:
I knew I needed to come back
here for me to get this closure.

With that sage, I'm praying to

my god, my father,

to help me move past this

and to protect me once I leave,

so nothing will follow me back.

Hopefully this helps it find
its peace and move on.

Time will tell, on-on this.

I'm a firm believer
that there are things that are

unknown to us,

and I think it got
into his psyche.

My prayer is, with Roland,

to hopefully bring closure
to 40 years

of being tormented
by this phenomenon.

So, did you say that Uncle Jim
got Roland off of the ranch?

-Yes, he did safely escort him.
-Okay.

ERIK: So, after we heard about
Roland-- he became disoriented

and nearly passed out
at Homestead Two--

we decided to load up in the UTV

and get out there and see
if we could find anything.

TRAVIS:
We don't know if this gentleman
had a medical issue or what,

but given my experience at
Homestead Two, we brought Geiger

counters, dosimeters,
and TriField meters out there in

case unusual levels of radiation
could be detected that

would indicate if something out
of the ordinary was happening.

Erik, you got
the Geiger counter rolling?

It's rolling.

-TRAVIS: My dosimeter's on.
-Okay.

Roland was beside me
in front of the cistern.

-We were all looking
toward the field.
-Yeah.

So he was standing here,
he kind of turned to me,

his eyes rolled back
in his head,

and just kind of landed on me.

Did you guys have a TriField
meter or a spectrum analyzer?

-Or a dosimeter?
-Nope.

If we're gonna come
into places like this,

like Homestead Two or
Homestead Three or places,

you know, other than just,
you know, around the house,

I think we need to figure out
which instruments we should

always take with us in case
something like that does happen.

Then we actually get the data
and make sure that--

so you're not being
exposed to something.

TOM:
I wish you guys
could have been here

and just kind of
experienced this guy

because he was,
he's the real deal.

And I f-- You know,
I felt what he was feeling.

Well, we'll tell you that, uh...

I'm seeing an unusually high
magnetic field level

right in this area that
I wasn't finding right there,

and-and this is
backing it up, too.

So, two instruments here
I'm seeing...

What are we looking at
on the radiation

spectrum, anything?

ERIK:
It's, it's troubling.

We're getting neutron counts
that I don't think

we should be getting.

PETE:
I've got some stuff to show you.

TRAVIS:
Something odd happened here.

When you walked
inside the building,

what happened to all
this data right here?

We will invite whatever is here

to communicate.

The-- Holy (bleep)! Right there.

Guys, we're getting
neutron counts

that I don't think
we should be getting.

Um, so, I want, I want y'all
to go on and move around.

Me and Erik will try and sweep,
see if we can find it.

Okay, we'll just move to
the front of the homestead area.

-Yep.
-You guys good?

-Yeah.
-Yeah.

Where in the hell
are neutrons coming from?

It wasn't a dangerous level
of neutrons,

but, again, it was a higher
than normal level.

Which is an anomaly.

Now, I don't know if it's
connected to what happened

to Mr. McCook
or if our experiments here

at Homestead Two could be
stimulating a response

from something
that is still unknown to us.

What I do know is that
Homestead Two needs to remain

the focus of our investigations
right now on Skinwalker Ranch.

Make sure that we don't detect
anything that's dangerous

before we let people
just come wander around in here.

Okay.

Thank you for indulging us
and racing us out here.

KANDUS:
Of course.

-PETE: Hey.
-THOMAS: Hey, Pete.
Welcome back.

TRAVIS: Did you get
all that data crunched?

-I did.
-ERIK: Pete Kelsey is back

with us for a return and report,

having crunched all the data
collected during his surveys

out at the Homestead Two area.

We're all anxious to review

and to see if anything
unusual shows up.

PETE:
Okay, I want to show
you the SLAM lidar.

You took the hover map
and went for a walk

around the structures,
the buildings.

That is what this is.

Now, admittedly,
it's pretty dirty.

TRAVIS:
Well, let's kind of
walk through it

and just see if we see anything.

Now that we have a precise
3D image of the buildings

and all the trees and
the foliage at Homestead Two,

we can examine the site
from different angles

and look for any unusual
phenomena in the area

that we wouldn't be able
to see with the naked eye.

ERIK:
It really does have a spooky
appearance, doesn't it?

-Appropriately.
-Right.

What-what I like is
that we can see through it

-right now. Yeah.
-It's very ghostly.
-Right.

Whoa, what is that?

THOMAS:
I mean, that's not
a data point, right?

There should be a lot more
data points right there

with the two rooms.

I mean, you walked in there.

Something odd happened here.

So, here's the house
in the back.

I mean, look how well
this is all covered up here.

Let me zoom back out.

So, there's the top of it.

What happened to all
this data right here?

Where is it?

-Can't explain it.
-It's like there's data missing.

TRAVIS:
The SLAM scan lidar data
is showing

the foliage and the outlines
of the buildings,

but where we should be seeing
the inside of the main house,

it's just a black hole.

And the data that you do have
came from the door,

-not from being inside.
-TRAVIS: Holy cow. Look at that.

And that means when you walked
inside the building,

it didn't take any data.

ERIK:
Guys, I dwelt for minutes
inside of these rooms.

There should be tons of data
here that we're not seeing.

That is spooky right there.

The only data you got was
from the outside in.

TRAVIS:
What is it about this spot
inside the building?

So, Pete, have--
in your time of doing this,

have you seen other models
that are similar to this

where you are lacking data
in a place

that you definitely
walked through?

(sighs) The short answer is no,
because I was with Erik.

He was in that room
and the hover map was working.

That's just strange to me.

TRAVIS:
Since the SLAM scanner
appears to have gotten good data

everywhere at Homestead Two
except inside the old house,

I don't know how
to scientifically explain that.

All I can think about is how
Colonel John Alexander told us

he believes there could be
a portal at that location.

Man, this is crazy.

I-I mean, something odd
is happening right there.

THOMAS:
Well, the data keeps

adding up that we can't
get data at that spot.

Or something doesn't want
us to get the data there, right?

Well, I got to tell you
that, uh,

it gives us some things
to think about,

some-some points
that we need to go look at.

ERIK:
Guys, this really meets

and exceeds my expectations.

I'm thrilled to have these data.

-PETE: Thank you.
-THOMAS: Thanks, Pete.

TRAVIS: There he is.
How you doing, Ariel?

-How you doing, brother?
-Great to see you.

-Nice to see you again.
-Great to see you.

TRAVIS:
I've worked with this team
to do everything we can think of

to apply hard science
in our investigations

of the strange phenomena that
keep happening at Homestead Two.

We've tried
ground-penetrating radar,

laser scanning, lidar scanning,
drilling and even excavating,

and gotten
no definitive answers.

All I know is that
when we poke this nest,

weird things seem to happen.

So I've decided to invite
a special guest

to see if his methods can help.

-Ariel, I'm Erik Bard.
-Erik.

TRAVIS:
Rabbi Ariel Tzadok is not
only a scholar and teacher

of Judaism, but also an expert
in how that belief system might

explain the portal phenomenon
that we've been investigating.

I don't generally conduct
mystical experiments or rituals,

but at this point, I don't know
what we have to lose.

I was just telling the guys
that you were explaining to me

how the Jewish faith
looks a little differently

at some of these
strange phenomenon

than the Christian faith.

So I don't get it wrong,
why don't you just explain that?

All right, let's go back
to a little bit of Bible study.

The Bible makes mention

of other indigenous races
upon our Earth.

I'm not a scientist,
I'm a clergyman.

And I came to look
at what is expressed here.

Not from a point
of a scientific anomaly,

but from a spiritual
point of view.

Recognize that the Bible
does speak of these entities.

They exist in what in religion
we'll call a spiritual plane.

I guess maybe
in modern terminology,

you might consider that
a fourth dimension of space.

You're the scientist.
You'll discover that.

What seems to be happening here
is that there very well might be

an indigenous earth spirit...

...who has called
this place home

for as long
as it has been alive.

And the one thing that they find
the most offensive

is when human beings
encroach upon their domain.

BRYANT:
There are times on this property

where you do get the sense
of malevolence a little bit.

This reality which we think
is the only reality... isn't.

You could actually have portals
opening and closing

on this property with a living,

non-human, intelligent entity.

Right.

Coming and then disappearing.

-Yeah.
-Coming and going.

-Profound.
-TRAVIS: Now, Ariel

has told me that the Hebrew
rabbis know of a thing

called tonal technologies.

It's an acoustic technology
that is believed to be able

to open up the heavens,
or a pathway or a doorway.

A portal, if you will.

My method,
I believe seeing is believing.

So, what I believe to do

is to teach others
to see for themselves.

-So, that's what it's all about.
-So, let's talk about

how we're gonna do that now.

We are going
to create a sacred place

and do the traditional prayers
for opening of the gates.

We will specifically
invite whatever is here,

if it's willing, to communicate,

to show some sign,
because these entities

are out there.

I already sense it.

The-- Holy (bleep)! Right there.

THOMAS:
What is that?

-What is that?
-TRAVIS: We got,
we got something.

Hold on. Right there.

-THOMAS: Yeah, I see it.
-ERIK: Oh, yeah.

Let's-let's load up,
let's get-- let's get there.

BRYANT: We're about to poke
the hornet's nest

to see what comes flying out.

ARIEL:
Remember, these entities

are always described
as being very cold.

TRAVIS:
Whoa.

Right there.

-THOMAS: Yeah, I see it.
-ERIK: Oh, yeah.

TRAVIS:
It's where it was last time.

It just went away. Dang it.

Right under the sun,
and it was right in that,

uh, portion of the sky.

While Ariel is talking to us
about how he hopes that he can

reach whatever the phenomena
is here on the ranch,

suddenly we notice to the west
there is something

glowing in the sky.

KALEB:
It's been popping up

in that same spot
that it always pops up.

TRAVIS:
Did you see it?

-You saw it, right?
-Oh, I saw it.

There it is again. It's back.

ARIEL:
There it is again, right there.

TRAVIS:
It's gone again.

And it's in the same place

-every time.
-BRYANT: Same exact spot.

-ARIEL: Yes.
-BRYANT: This object
that we're seeing,

it shows up,
it glints really brightly,

and then disappears
as if into a speck.

It was pretty crazy.

-Now it's gone.
-ERIK: So, guys?

-Yeah.
-The transponder data receiver

is running, cameras are running.

I think we need to get out
to the homesteads

and start our-our process.

Let's go. Let's-let's load up.

Let's get-- let's get there.

Let's go talk to it.

-You got it?
-Got it?
-Yep.

Thomas Winterton always says,

"When new people
come on the ranch,

the ranch responds to it."

ERIK:
I've got this--
I've got everything I need.

-I'm ready.
-TRAVIS: I don't know

what to think, but it's weird

that just as Rabbi Tzadok
has come to Skinwalker Ranch

for the express purpose
of trying to reveal

portal phenomena,
we clearly see something

glowing and then disappear
in the sky.

I don't know what that was,
but I saw it.

BRYANT:
You know,
Travis has talked about

wanting to poke
the hornet's nest

and see what comes flying out.

Well, we're about to.

We'll see what happens.

I'll tell you right now,
I'm really excited

-for this ceremony.
-Absolutely.

TRAVIS:
Well, here we are.

This is Homestead Two.

ARIEL:
This is a good place.

This is a rock
let's see if we can work with.

At this time, we're going
to create a sacred space,

and if there is
an entity out here,

which feels
that we are intruding,

this will be a place
as an offering of peace.

As if saying, "No,
we are not here to encroach,

we are not here for harm."

Because these entities,
they understand energy.

And if they feel the place
and power of holiness,

it will be like coming
to a campfire on a cold night,

that they can come for warmth.

Let's see if we can find

-some rocks, if we can...
-BRYANT: You bet.

-...to put around here.
-How big and how many?

ARIEL:
Uh, just enough to cover.

-BRYANT: Okay.
-So, like,
two to three feet away

-from the center stone?
-That would be fine.

-Okay.
-That would be fine.

TRAVIS:
As an astrophysicist,
I approach every experiment

using the scientific method.

But as a scientist, you have to
be open to examining a problem

from all points of view
to find a potential solution.

Maybe a more exotic approach is
what we need for this experiment

to actually yield results.

Kaleb, that's good.

All right, then.

All right, well,
we've got all of th-- our gear,

so I think it's time we start
setting up for nighttime.

-Yep.
-TRAVIS: Let's grab
our stuff, guys.

Let's see what happens.

I guess those just go by
the table, the Pelican cases.

-Yep.
-And, uh, Dragon,
we'll work on that computer,

-we got to set it up
to the audio system.
-Okay.

TRAVIS:
Rabbi Tzadok told us

that according
to religious doctrine,

this particular tonal ceremony

could only be effective
if performed after dark.

BRYANT:
This will be interesting.

TRAVIS:
Yeah. It's been interesting
so far.

So, in addition to our spectrum
analyzers and TriField meters,

which will detect
any anomalous energy spikes

if something happens,
we're also going to set up

infrared cameras
with night vision

to document anything
out of the ordinary

that might not be visible
to the naked eye

and a thermal scanner to monitor
strange drops in temperature.

I think the mic stands
should go about right there.

And finally, we're going
to make a recording

during and after
the rabbi's ceremony

to capture any strange
audio frequencies

or unnatural sounds
that may occur out here tonight.

-Looks like we should be good.
-Okay.

Erik, you about got
that camera situated?

-Yeah.
-We good?

Uh, Erik, you've got the
forward-looking infrared camera,

uh, set up and ready
and recording.

We've got the night vision
googles.

Are they, uh, set up
on the camera? Are they going?

Yeah, the NVG
is rolling as well.

They're both trained
on the homestead area

-and the trees above.
-All right.

We've got, uh, the microphone

connected to speakers,
and we're gonna

be blasting that,
but we are also recording it.

And any other sounds that
the microphone picks up

will be recorded in that,
we can look at later.

And back in my trailer,

we've got the spectrum
analyzer running,

measuring all of the microwaves

for the antennas
pointing this way.

And that's all being
recorded as well?

-That's all being
recorded, yeah.
-Okay.

So, if something happens,
I mean,

hopefully we'll catch
at least parts of it.

ARIEL:
Many of the stories
that have been told

about this place

is that there have been
opening of portals.

Through the centuries,

many of the sages, prophets,
shamans and the like,

have recognized that there
are certain types of sounds,

harmonics--
we call them chants--

that can somehow
influence the movement

or interactions
with these portals.

What I'm gonna be doing now

is the traditional
evening prayers

that are recited at this time
in our Torah tradition.

So, on that note,
if everybody's okay...

-Yes, sir.
-...I'm going to begin.

Thank you.

(reciting prayer in Hebrew)

ARIEL:
I do sense a presence
in this land,

and I sense that this is
a very old presence here.

I asked for its permission
to be here.

I asked if I could give
a blessing to the land

because this is the land
which God has made

and it's the role
of a rabbi, of course,

to be a conduit
of the blessings of God.

TRAVIS:
So, Ariel starts his ceremony,

and while he's doing the chant,

I happen to notice that there is
some kind of anomaly

in front of the doorway
of Homestead Two.

TRAVIS:
Erik, come here a minute.

You seeing something?

TRAVIS:
Look at the difference
in the FLIR imagery now.

It's completely changed.

ERIK:
I have not seen this
do this before.

TRAVIS:
It shouldn't have changed that
drastically all of a sudden.

The FLIR imagery
completely changed.

It's like the canopy
of the trees was superhot.

And then everything underneath
it where the house is--

I mean, look it,
it's just completely cold.

Yeah, it's like in
temperature layers, now.

BRYANT: Hey, are you guys
seeing anything?

KALEB:
We're looking at an eye.

I don't know what to make of it,

but I want you
to see this thing.

TRAVIS: The temperature around
the homestead began to drop.

Look at how it got cold,
immediately.

It shouldn't have changed that
drastically all of the sudden.

ERIK:
One of the most unexpected

and interesting artifacts
that we see during this exercise

is that immediately after
the ceremony

had drawn to a close,

the temperature
around the homestead itself

began to drop.

It began to plummet.

ARIEL: That's usually indicative
of a presence.

Remember, these entities
are always described

as being very cold.

TRAVIS:
So, what that means is suddenly

the treetops are super warm,

and everything underneath it
got super cool.

Guys, look now. Look right here.

-You see how the heat
is coming down this tree.
-Yeah.

TRAVIS:
And it's heating up around
this area and it's creating

this cold vortex in the middle,
suddenly.

That's-- that is odd.

And now it's heating up. Look.

Now it's heating up,
in the middle of it.

Suddenly, the temperature

over the homestead area
turns extremely hot,

and then it starts to fall

and it wraps around
the homestead.

I'm not sure what is going on
with Homestead Two,

what it is about the place,
but since I have been here,

we've measured crazy radio
and microwaves down there.

I had radiation
exposure symptoms

from a signal that appeared
to be gamma rays.

It was really strange.

I'm going down there.

ERIK: You better take
something with you.

Yes, I want
the spectrum analyzer.

Erik, why don't you try
to guide us right in here?

-Please keep an eye
on the monitor.
-ERIK: Okay.

-And if something changes,
let us know.
-All right.

TRAVIS:
There's some kind
of anomaly going on

down here at Homestead Two where
alleged portals had been seen.

And now we're seeing an anomaly
through our FLIR camera

after a rabbi does
a ceremony to open portals?

There is nothing gonna keep me
from going down there

to see what's going on.

Thomas and-and Dragon and I,

we need to take instruments
down there right now.

I am going to record,
start recording on this camera.

THOMAS:
Hey, come here.
Feel the difference?

TRAVIS:
Oh, wow.

-It's freezing right here.
-THOMAS: It is freezing cold.

TRAVIS:
Absolutely cold right here.
Oh, my goodness.

Okay, you are right in
the center of that region.

It is freezing cold right here

in front of the homestead.

As soon as we walked in front
of Homestead Number Two,

it was probably
20 degrees colder.

I mean, it was instantaneous,

like walking
into a walk-in freezer

or something like that.

That's crazy.

We're looking at, it's, like,
almost, like, a-an eye.

There's a black section
surrounded by purple

and it's, like, receding in the
closer you guys get close to it.

BRYANT:
It is bloody cold in here.

-But it is...
-I'm shocked

to have
the temperature difference.

BRYANT:
Yeah, that is strange.
I've never--

I mean, we've been out here
how many times?

I've never felt
the difference like that.

-Yeah.
-No.

TRAVIS:
That's just kind of spooky.

THOMAS: The rabbi told us
that the presence of entities

or beings or spirits

has been described
as being very cold.

So, it makes me wonder
if we weren't walking through

some type of spirit

or entity, you know,
another dimension

that we could feel
but we couldn't see.

TRAVIS:
Interesting and odd
at the same time.

THOMAS:
It is so hard because you can't
really quantify a feeling.

TRAVIS:
You can't quantify a feeling.

That's exactly right,
that's the problem.

BRYANT: Hey, are you guys
seeing anything?

It'll be easier if you come
back here and I'll explain it.

BRYANT:
Well, let's go head back
and see what they've got to say.

It sounded like they had
something interesting.

TRAVIS:
Thomas and Dragon and I
were completely amazed,

startled and confused

by this strange temperature
vortex or anomaly.

I can't explain
any of this stuff.

While we didn't see

a monster crawl out of it...

...who knows what a portal

is supposed to look like?

We couldn't see it
with our naked eyes,

but we did see it
with the infrared camera.

So, who knows?

When you guys started
walking down there,

you could see, uh,
this whole area warming up.

And there was a purple, like,

it looked like an eye
right there.

It was purple
with a black section

right in the middle of it.

TRAVIS:
That's the cold, probably.

It almost was like you were
chasing something that way.

THOMAS:
Well, I'll tell you
what we need.

We need four or five more nights

as a baseline
to compare this to.

I'd like to do that.

I'd like to go back
and look at the-the data.

There's just so many things
I want to do.

I can't wait
to see this replayed

once Erik gets the data

from the forward-looking
infrared camera

and we can analyze it.

This is only one more chapter

in a never-ending story.

This will continue.

-TRAVIS: Yeah.
-You will have other episodes,

more revelations, more insights.

-You are here for a purpose.
-Thank you very much.

-I believe that.
-Well, thank you
all for having me.

ERIK: So, I'm looking
at the thermography footage

from Rabbi Ariel's prayer,
and I'm seeing some things

that I would like
to get your eyes on.

I'd love to see it.

That was an interesting night.

Yeah. It was very interesting.

Last night,
Rabbi Ariel's ceremony

definitely left an impression
on all of us.

I can't say for sure
that what he did caused a portal

to open at Homestead Two,

but the 20-degree
temperature drop

inside the old house structure
was undeniable.

And now that Erik has
analyzed the thermal footage

and all of the data,
I'm eager to find out

what else we may have documented

that wasn't obvious
in the moment.

So, I've got us queued up
to the point

where the Rabbi Ariel completed
what he was here to do.

You know, that's pretty much
what it looked like

-most of the time.
-THOMAS: Mm-hmm.

And then all of a sudden,

this is all rapidly changing.

BRYANT:
Whoa. Look at how it got cold

immediately more than
just in that doorway.

Wow. That was, like,
instantaneous.

ERIK:
We are talking on the order

-of ten, 20 seconds.
-Ten or 20 seconds,

the entire thermal area

of the whole place there
changed.

Look how much colder
it's getting.

ERIK:
It's really dropping.

And then, if you focus
on this part right here...

TRAVIS:
Yeah. As we're walking in
right there,

the spot is, like, super cold

in one spot and everything else
around it is hot.

-BRYANT: Like, really hot.
-Look at that.

THOMAS:
Well, I remember,
when we walked in there,

it was like getting hit
with a wall of cold.

-Like you walked into a freezer.
-It wasn't a gradual thing.

-Yeah.
-It was just a...

TRAVIS:
And look at the difference.

I mean, it's, like,
a vortex of cold right there

and everything else
around it is just superhot.

Even the ground underneath it,
look: is-is hot.

Ariel said that if he was gonna
open up a portal,

it might not look
like what we think a portal

-is gonna look like.
-ERIK: I remember that.

And what we see here,

whether it's a teleportation
portal, you know, I don't--

I can't say anything to that.

I don't know what to say
about it other than

something caused the temperature
to change dramatically

in a localized spot.

That's crazy.

So, we have a localized effect,

-analogous to the portal.
-Yep.

There is one other feature

that I don't know
what to make of it,

but I want you
to see this thing.

It only happens once,
it's very fast.

Where are we looking at
on the screen?

ERIK:
Well, first I want to see
if you notice it.

-THOMAS: Okay.
-So, I think we're looking

at a total of maybe
seven, eight frames.

-Whoa.
-Whoa.

-Whoa, what was that?
-Right there. That.

ERIK: Okay, now I'm frame
advancing, so what is that?

What?

TRAVIS:
It hardly seems possible.

What the heck is that?

TRAVIS:
We're gonna reproduce
the experiment we did

when Rabbi Ariel Tzadok
was here.

(Ariel reciting prayer)

TRAVIS:
Look at the screen.

MAN:
It jumped to 47.

THOMAS: There's something
flickering right here.

Back corner of the house.
Back corner of the house.

-TRAVIS: Guys, what's going on?
-It's moving.

-Something may be hacking us.
-TRAVIS: Oh, crap, look at that.

We're actively being
electronically attacked.

I'm leaving the ranch.
I'm getting a bad headache.

-TRAVIS: Are you serious?
-I'm dead serious.
