Next, on "Paranormal Caught on Camera,"

a poltergeist torments a family.

Until it happens to you, you really don't understand

how powerful it can be.

A UFO in Arizona...

Holy. .

...drops even more UFOs.

Hey, hurry.

A man in North Carolina sneaks up on a Bigfoot.

He's moving, he's moving, he's moving.

Yeah, your stomach will definitely turn cartwheels

when you see one.

A mysterious dark entity

emerges from a storm.

Just got shivers, kind of, you know, goosebumps.

You know, "What is that?"

And even more paranormal footage

you have to see...

...to believe.

Realizing your house may be haunted by a poltergeist

is terrifying enough.

Leave my house.

Moving to a new house more than once

and discovering that poltergeist has moved with you each time

is a living nightmare.

Add to that the arrival of a life-threatening illness,

and it becomes a fight for your very survival.

One family in Boca Raton, Florida

knows this all too well,

because it happened to them.

What was that?

In the summer of 2014, in Boca Raton, Florida,

Jeff Geragi's two sons began to complain

about sounds waking them up at night.

And the more it happened, the more they freaked out.

So Jeff set up a camera in their rooms to calm their fears.

But when they reviewed the footage,

their terror, and Jeff's, went through the roof.

First, the shade on the window shakes for a moment...

...though the window is closed.

Now, keep your eyes on the bedside table to the right,

as a book is pushed off.

Then, strange lights flash across the room

and another object is pushed off the bedside table.

Then, all hell breaks loose.

I'm Jeff Geragi.

That particular evening, my youngest child

went into my older child's bedroom

because he kept getting woken up in his room.

And then we captured all that activity

that happened in that room.

Um, unfortunately, there was

much more activity that happened.

My son cut the camera off

as they were leaving the bedroom.

When my kids came to me with this,

I mean, it was a really hard time for them.

I now understand what they were going through

and they were trying to tell me.

And it was just difficult for me to comprehend that in my head,

until I experienced it first-hand.

And Jeff's first-hand experience

with this entity was only just beginning.

The activity continued for years,

forcing the family to move multiple times.

This is my third place, uh, in less than six years.

But unfortunately, moving homes didn't work.

In 2018, four years after he filmed the first video,

Jeff captured this in a new house.

Watch as a large orb suddenly appears...

followed by a few others.

Then, even more activity.

Moments later, Jeff enters the room.

He immediately notices objects out of place,

and when he reviews the footage, his blood runs cold.

The poltergeist is still with him.

I think that something was attached to us,

and then when we moved, it stayed with us.

A lot of times, we think about haunted houses,

but people themselves can be haunted.

Objects can be haunted.

So it's not just about a building,

it can be people.

Sometimes it'll be orbs.

Other times, it can be movement.

It's -- It's unpredictable.

Let me put it that way, it's unpredictable.

This is one of the best films I've ever seen

for capturing of orbs.

They do seem kind of intelligent.

Like, they're not just, like, floating in the air.

They're -- It looks like they're walking, like,

or floating around the room.

And when the man comes into the room,

he obviously doesn't even notice that these orbs are, like,

on him and all over him, which is even more creepy.

Making matters even worse,

Jeff believes whatever he's living with

has taken a toll on his health.

I was fine, um,

and then this activity started.

And I am now --

uh, I have completely lost all, uh, function of my kidneys.

Um, so I rely on dialysis every day to, uh --

to keep going.

I do believe that the stress and if I get aggravated,

that it -- it allows the entity to maybe feed off of that

and then come back at me

even stronger than it -- than it does, you know,

say, on a normal day when I'm not as aggravated or whatever.

It targets me at my most vulnerable times.

When I'm doing my dialysis, it'll target me then.

When I'm trying to hook up to the equipment,

it'll mess with the equipment.

It definitely feeds off of the negative energy especially.

The fact that this guy

is also undergoing some severe health challenges

actually tracks with paranormal activity.

It does make sense that

as his body is in a weakened state,

that there might be some more entities, spirits

trying to communicate with him, influence his environment.

The flip side is it could be him

that's actually the catalyst behind the activity.

It's impossible to diagnose

just by watching the video,

but if he feels the stress of the unknown,

the stress of this thing, whatever it is, following him,

it definitely wears down on your health.

I mean, it's stress. We live it every day.

And the last thing you need is something unseen

that so much of the population doesn't even believe is real.

For now, Jeff is coping

with the situation as best he can --

focusing on his health while trying to capture

as much proof of the activity as possible.

It can be, uh, hard at times to -- to -- to deal with,

but we're trying to understand it.

We're trying to -- to document it.

And, um, you know, as long as it keeps on happening,

we're gonna keep documenting it

and, uh, trying to move forward.

I don't think it's something we can run from.

I think it's something we have to either find out

what's going on and deal with it ourselves,

or maybe someone will -- will help us with this.

Until it happens to you, you really don't understand

how powerful, uh, it -- it -- it can be.

The South Western United States,

a beautiful part of the country

known for gorgeous national parks,

striking desert beauty, and of course...

...legendary UFO activity.

But even by South West standards,

the footage captured by a couple in Mesa, Arizona,

is truly remarkable...

and utterly unexplainable.

What is that?! .

What is that?

On the evening of December 8, 2019,

in Mesa, Arizona,

couple Douglas Maier and Kerri Burnett

saw something bizarre in the night sky.

Is that a comet?

A strange orange orb hovered in the air.

The sight was so stunning that they both

pulled out their phones and started to record.

Guys! Come here, look!

Hey, hurry.

My name's Douglas Maier.

I'm Kerri Burnett.

I looked straight up above, kind of, our tree,

just up into the distance,

and it was such a bright orange-ish light that, for me,

first I said, "Babe, what the heck is that?

That's, like, Venus or something,

that's, like, super bright in the atmosphere."

Then I see that it looks like it's heading towards us,

so heading, like, North-bound in the sky.

So it just kept getting, kind of, brighter,

looking as if it's getting closer.

And then, suddenly...

- Look, see that? - What?

What the hell that?

There was four there.

All of a sudden, it starts dropping pretty fast,

these orange orbs.

And it was -- they were just heading,

like, shooting straight down.

And it was, "Okay, what the heck is that?"

It didn't look like any tracers...

you know, chem trails,

no fire, uh, nothing that looked like it was burning out.

The orbs were the same brightness

as the actual flying object.

And when it did release these things,

it was almost like the object itself got brighter.

It was like a "boom."

What is that?!

What is that?

I don't know what the that is.

It is dropping stuff.

I have to offer a lot of kudos to these people.

What they did was smart.

They utilized two separate cameras to document this,

and that adds a lot of validity to what they captured.

I had it on video, too.

- Wow. - Did you s--

There it is again.

What is that?

Kerri has the better phone, so her video footage

showed it close up and saw it doing

what we were just talking about,

but I switched to Facebook Live.

Dude, I'm Facebook living this.

Look at that. Do you see that?

You can't fake a live stream, man.You can't fake that.

And it shows the neighbor, actually, coming up at the end.Yeah.

Hey, did you guys see that?

I don't know.

And so, she goes,

"How long have you guys been watching, and what was that?"

And she -- you could hear her say it.

She's actually scared.

I'm a little scared.

Made me feel like scared. I don't know why.

Yeah, it was weird.

That there was something in the sky that night

was undeniable.

But what exactly was it?

- That was creepy. - Yeah, just a little bit.

Are we gonna have to evacuate?

Is this an attack? Is this -- W--

Oh, my God.

- It's going-- - Holy.

It's pretty much the only reaction

that the average, sane person,

would think when seeing what th-- whatever that is.

And the fact that they had the wherewithal

to get out the camera,

document it.

Other people saw it, they documented it.

They're all asking the same question...

"What was it?"

Say, is that a comet?

I don't know what the that is.

It is dropping stuff. Watch guys. Do you see it?

Douglas and Kerri still have no idea

what it was they saw that night.

But it was something that neither they, the children,

nor anyone else that was there with them

will ever forget.

I don't know what to make of that experience.

And whenever Kerri and I came in the house,

the kids -- you know,

you heard them in the video them, too.

What is that?

I don't know what that is, honey.

- UFO! - Look, it's going higher.

The four of us saw it.

We didn't say anything to each other

almost for 45 minutes.

Everybody was in shock.

- What is that? - Holy.

What is that?

Coming up...

a lightening storm gives birth to a sky monster.

Extreme weather

can result in unusual atmospheric energy...

...and incredible natural beauty.

It also makes a great subject for photographers.

But during a powerful late-summer storm,

one man captured something far more impressive

than just a photo of lightening in the sky.

In September of 2019, near Detroit Lakes, Minnesota...

...a lightening storm is expected any minute.

Amateur photographer Todd Mitchell,

who runs a campground in the area,

uses his security camera

to capture what he hopes will be

some impressive shots of the storm.

But instead of lightening, he captures this.

A mysterious black amorphous shape

flying through the sky.

It goes away after a moment.

And then returns again...

two more times,

before finally disappearing for good.

When reviewing the footage, Todd was sure of one thing --

whatever this was, it was not from these parts.

Todd Mitchell, uh, Detroit Lakes, Minnesota.

I backed it up and played it again.

And I backed it up, and played it again.

And I just got shivers, kind of, you know, goosebumps,

'cause, you know, what is that?

I was just freaked out.

And it appeared to be, you know, way up in the sky

and kind of darted around sporadically,

you know, with a -- with a trail.

This is the first time we've ever seen

anything like -- like this.

I mean, I don't think anybody that I know of

has ever talked about seeing anything like that.

Um, and we lived here -- well, we --

My wife grew up here, and aside from our time in the air force,

uh, we've lived here our whole life.

I totally forgot about the lightening.

I didn't even end up saving any lightening photos that day.

Over the past decade or so

of research that I've done,

I've seen hundreds, if not thousands

of UFO videos and pictures.

And I got to say, I've never heard of anything

that sounds anywhere close to what we see in this video.

McNEILL: That's, like, straight out of "Lost" --

smoke monster stuff.

That was super creepy.

I have no explanation for that, but I love it.

I wish I had been there.

To come across something like this

that nobody can explain and nobody's ever seen before,

is pretty exciting.

I would say, even for, you know,

paranormal enthusiasts and scientists

to try and figure out what this thing could possibly be.

It kind of reminds me

of what a Will O' Wisp would look like.

But usually, those are forms of light.

This is like a shadowy, soft-looking Will O' Wisp,

and I've never seen anything that looked like that before.

Some people thought it was some kind of a spirit.

Um, I think "entity" was a word that some people used.

One of the clips looked like it shot out of the lightening.

Could the weather have played a part

in explaining why or how this entity appeared in the sky?

Whether this thing is alien or not,

um, it's definitely using the extreme weather

to either garner energy or to use it to cloak itself

and to mask during this time.

The strange object hasn't been seen since.

And Todd is no closer to solving the mystery

of the flying sky monster.

I was totally miffed. I was stunned.

I didn't know what -- absolutely no idea.

And I still don't know what to think of it.

Coming up...

an intrepid Bigfoot hunter has a very close encounter.

He's moving, he's moving, he's moving.

When you're a cryptid hunter

in search of an illusive creature,

patience and consistency are a must.

It may take repeated attempts, hundreds even,

sometimes waiting hours for the faintest clue --

the snap of a twig...

...a sudden rustle of leaves...

...and even then, you can still end up with...

a deer.

But if you're persistent and dogged in your search,

eventually, you may actually pull off the impossible

and come upon something truly special,

like one North Carolina man did,

when he suddenly found himself a stone's throw...

from Bigfoot.

He's moving.

He's moving, he's moving, he's moving.

It's the summer of 2019 in a remote area

of the Pisgah National Forest in North Carolina.

Bigfoot enthusiast Doug Teague ventures out

into the big brush with his dog, Crazy Daisy.

Daisy, get down here. Come here.

They're in search of the legendary Sasquatch...

...known to frequent these parts.

I'm Doug Teague in Hickory, North Carolina.

It was hot, you know, 95 to 100 degrees,

and, uh, I didn't expect to see anything that day.

We just went into the woods to retrieve some trail cameras.

And I heard knocking.

Just figured it was woodpeckers.

Then a rock was thrown in front of me, down the hill.

So I stopped, starting scanning the hillside, looking around.

Had a couple more rocks threw.

And then I spotted the big one up on top of the hill.

It looks like it's looking over the top of that stump.

Look at it.

Doug is sure of it.

What he's seeing through the trees

is Bigfoot.

Here, you can see what looks like an arm.

And here is the head.

He's moving.

He's moving, he's moving, he's moving.

It's slick, beautiful.

It had thick hairy arms and thick hairy hips.

And where I measured on the tree,

I looked, you know, on the video and the tree as he walked by

and he was right around, 8.5, 9 feet,

somewhere in that area.

Your stomach will definitely turn cartwheels

when you see one.

There is, no doubt, something there.

It's right there. You can see it.

He's still up there.

I had a lot of ridicule about,

"Why didn't you walk toward him?

Why didn't you do this? Why didn't you do that?"

Well, when they're throwing those rocks,

that's their way of telling you, "You're close enough."

This always really scares me

when I see Bigfoot or Sasquatch imagery

that is this close to the person who's taking it,

because there's imminent danger.

Like, you're not supposed to be that close to any cryptid,

much less a Bigfoot.

But Doug's personal safety

is not the only reason his shot of this encounter

is relatively brief.

I gave the media 22 seconds of video.

I just figured that's all the public needs to see.

I know they're there and, uh,

I just don't like to be ridiculed.

That's the reason I've never showed it.

And I don't know that I ever will.

And believe it or not...

this wasn't the first time Doug had seen Bigfoot.

In fact, he claims to have seen several at a time.

I've been as close as... 25 to 30 feet.

Me and Crazy Daisy has followed these tracks.

This is the best one of them.

I'm gonna try to cast it.

I've got multiple pictures, videos.

I've collected a lot of evidence.

This is a cast of, I believe to be, a female.

She's only got three toes -- missing some toes.

One day, we hope that Doug

will be willing to share even more of his evidence

with the public.

I just want people to -- to know that,

you know, they're out there. They're real.

I'm sure they want to be left alone.

But they're just as curious as we are.

They don't want to go to Walmart, you know,

but they still want to know what's going on.

And I honestly think they want to mingle with us

every now and then.

He's moving, he's moving, he's moving.

Coming up...

get ready to have your mind blown.

Since the early 1900's,

there has been a suspected connection

between UFO sightings and the military.

For starters, with the naked eye,

it can be difficult to differentiate

a military aircraft from an alien spaceship.

And when it comes to what the government

really knows about alien visitations

versus what they have told us they know,

well, let's just say there exists a certain lack of trust.

So naturally, when videos like this pop up online...

it's going to cause some uproar.

Italy, 2011.

Roberto Godani is walking alone in the woods,

when suddenly, he hears this.

And then sees this.

Take another look.

As two jets appear to be escorting

what looks like a flying saucer.

Roberto quickly runs to get another shot.

Sure enough, there they are.

Roberto's mind screams, "Impossibile!" --

"Impossible!"

This footage is unbelievable.

If this holds up to scrutiny,

this is the most impressive and convincing footage

of a UFO craft I have ever seen.

Let's assume it's not a hoax,

because we get a really clear, uh, image

of two jet fighters, um, flying in a very tight formation

with what is your typical flying saucer.

What's really impressive about that video

is that the light is dispersed so evenly.

Usually when there's stitching,

and, like, there's an overlay of, like,

"I'm putting this thing into this video,"

you can see that they're two separate files,

like, on each other, 'cause the light is different.

But that's not what's happening here.

Like, there -- the light source

is coming from the same place

and it's shifting with it.

This is, like, "Wow!"

This video is not asking, "What is the truth?"

This video is asking, "Who knows the truth,

and why haven't they told us?"

Because the truth is evident in this video.

If we take this video at face value,

it's a flying saucer being escorted by two military jets...

fairly obviously.

So, if this is real,

then we don't need to say, "Are UFOs real?"

We need to say,

"Where is it going, and who is taking it there?"

But let's just take a moment here.

Is it really plausible that the military

would be escorting a UFO anywhere?

Believe it or not, I've actually heard of UFOs

being escorted by military craft quite often.

It's something that people report

seeing after big, uh, UFO cases,

they'll see an armada of jets show up.

It just reinforces the whole storyline

that the government knows exactly what's out there

in the skies and what's going on.

They know of our alien visitations

and is somehow in cahoots

with this other alien civilization

unbeknownst to the masses of everyone here on this planet.

Or perhaps, the explanation

is even more mind blowing.

Seeing this formation,

One might assume that this is two human pilots

escorting an alien visitor.

That might not be the case.

This might be three humans piloting three human vehicles.

And this is straight out of the 1950s.

This is "War of the Worlds."

This is what you would expect.

It's very possible that

in our experimentation with different crafts,

and, indeed, if there is any credence

to reverse engineering of alien spacecraft

to our own technology,

maybe we're finally developing saucer-shaped ships.

I fully believe most of the time,

the UFOs that we see, or are captured on camera,

are UFOs that are either manufactured by the government,

or obtained by the government.

If it's one of our crafts

that they just haven't told us about,

they're light years ahead

of where we think they are technologically.

Whether we're allied with an alien civilization,

or more technologically advanced than anyone thought possible,

one thing's for sure.

The secret is out there.

We have what appears to be

a substantive body of evidence...

...that suggests that it is not

just random people's unexplained sightings

that are the evidence for UFOs.

We have government information on this.

We have files. We have Area 51.

People have thought for decades

that the US military knows more than they're telling us

when it comes to UFOs,

and this footage is definitive proof of that.

If you didn't trust the government before,

there you go.

Coming up...

a security camera captures evidence of a powerful entity.

When confronted with an unknown entity,

our mind generally tries to categorize it as best it can,

even if the categories themselves defy logic.

For example, could it be a ghost,

a cryptid, or an extraterrestrial?

But what if the entity defies all logic?

What if it fits into more than one category?

Like some kind of hybrid alien ghost.

That's what happened to one family in India

who were visited by a mysterious and powerful entity

in the middle of the night.

And they used an age-old method

to figure out exactly what it was.

It's winter of 2018 in New Delhi, India.

Residents of an apartment awake to a disturbing sight --

a large heavy planter has been moved

5 to 6 feet across their back patio.

And when they check the video from the security camera

on the back of the house, they see this.

Watch the right side of your screen

as a dark, shadow-like figure walks down the stairs,

turns to the left,

and pushes the planter across the patio.

Then continues on it's merry way along the back wall.

I've seen objects of all shapes and sizes

seemingly move on their own,

or due to some sort of paranormal force.

However, this is extra impressive

because of the size and weight of this thing.

The pot that it moves

is actually a really heavy ceramic pot.

Like, would require a lot of energy

to be pushed in the first place.

So whatever it is that's in this video,

is pretty powerful.

Because spirit doesn't have a physical form

that we're aware of,

in order to interact with our physical universe,

it has to be some form of PK, or some energy transfer,

because everything in our universe

is energy and vibration.

After viewing the video

and witnessing what this thing did,

the family believed the figure was either a powerful ghost

or maybe an alien.

My mind does go to ghost when I see this footage,

but what I find so fascinating is that these people think,

"Alien."

They don't go straight to ghost.

So what is happening there in that scenario

that they are thinking about extraterrestrials?

In order to help them figure out what exactly it was,

and hoping it would return, the family came up with a test.

Their hope was that the alien, or ghost,

would leave some kind of imprint in the ashes.

I thought was really interesting

was, uh, the woman resorted to

one of the oldest tricks in the books

of paranormal investigations,

where she brought out ash to capture footprints.

That an alien could leave footprints,

or some kind of mark, seems reasonable.

But could a ghost?

Well, that depends on who you ask.

I always try to explain going, "Look, ghosts don't have feet.

so they're not gonna be able to make the footprint,

unless they want to." You know?

Unless they know what you're doing, and they say,

"Okay, we're gonna give it to you."

There's a few rare cases around haunted swimming pools

where entities supposedly leave a track of wet footprints.

So to think that a ghost may leave some sort of track

isn't unheard of.

We see this spirit

interacting with a physical object,

so, in my opinion, it means that it could interact with ash

that's left on the floor.

But when the next morning arrives,

there are, sadly, no footprints.

Instead, there's something far more confounding --

a trail of ashes.

It seemed that the dust which she had

really just laid out all over the ground there,

collected in a very narrow path

that was the exact same path

that the shadow figure walked on.

It looks like whatever this thing was

kind of swept it in a straight line,

which makes think it may be not a human form.

The odd pattern of the dust

only adds to the confusion.

Regardless, whatever this thing was,

it hasn't returned since.

At least, not yet.

I wouldn't call it a ghost,

unless it's the ghost of an alien,

which seems like a lot.

I'd say, "open your mind a little bit."

call it an alien and...

understand that we don't know what that means.

It's hard to deny that something's going on here.

And it's definitely sending a message

to whoever lives in this place that they are not alone.

Coming up...

a close encounter in Canada.

On May 20, 1967,

in the Manitoba Province of Canada,

a man named Stefan Michalak

was looking for some valuable minerals near Falcon Lake...

when he saw a large metallic UFO

land about 100 feet away from him.

He walked up to it and touched it with a gloved hand.

It suddenly blasted off again, letting out a jet of hot gas

that knocked him back and set his clothes on fire.

Amazingly, he lived to tell the tale.

This event became one of the most famous

and thoroughly investigated UFO encounters

in Canadian history.

So much so, that in 2018,

the Canadian Mint released a $20 coin

commemorating the event.

Nearly 50 years later to the day

and just a few miles from that same location,

two young men had an incredible UFO experience of their own.

In May, 2017...

...two men were driving along

the Trans-Canada Highway in Manitoba --

a long, monotonous stretch of prairies and farmland

that go as far as the eye can see.

When suddenly...

A massive, bright, shining, white object

appeared in the sky, followed by a smaller one...

...which flashed in and out of view.

The men continued to film the objects for miles

as they drove along the highway.

My biggest complaint about UFO videos

is how shaky they are and how blurry they are.

But this video, it's pretty clear,

wide open space.

It's your traditional pie-plate UFO,

but it's great these camera people

actually took the time to really film it,

try to steady the camera, so we could all see it

and try to figure out what the heck is going on.

You know, at first,

I thought it was the moon coming up,

but then you notice that there's two of them.

There's one of them, and then there's a-a smaller one.

McNEILL: There's one main light and another one appears,

and then sort of seems to merge with it,

or move around it.

One bright light is compelling enough.

The appearance of another one that behaves

in some sort of different way?

Even more so.

Something that I think

lends credibility to this footage

is how quickly it takes place.

These guys are driving fast,

however, when you look at the sky,

it is being obscured quickly by the trees,

by the telephone poles.

So they are not faking this. This feels legit to me.

Narrator: What makes this sighting even more remarkable

is how long the crafts are visible

and how close they are to the horizon.

Compared to the horizon,

this thing must be huge.

I mean, it's not just a little speck in the sky.

It looks like a huge, round object.

The UFO is very bright and sort of low to the ground,

which is a little bit unusual for UFO videos.

You know, it's not being very discreet,

so maybe it wants to be seen.

They don't seem too concerned about being noticed.

And if you think about it, that's a bit of a scary thought.

What I noticed was,

where is this ball of light hovering over?

A giant field -- a field with tons of cows.

I am just thinking that the next day some report

is gonna show up being, like,

"Our cows are all dead and drained of blood,"

or, "There are giant crop circles in our field."

Fortunately, no mutilations were reported

after this sighting.

Regardless of their agenda, one thing is certain --

for at least half a century, alien life forms

appear to have had Manitoba, Canada,

on their radar.

If you think about it, it's a lot of open farmland,

it's a very rural area

so a lot of people will be looking up.

So it makes perfect sense

that people are gonna see things up there.

These are UFOs, man.

What should you do in the event

you witness something paranormal?

Here are some tips to get it all on camera --

install cameras everywhere...
