Next on "Paranormal Caught On Camera"...

Holy

...demonic spirits torment a man in England.

Look at the wood. The wood's goin' down!

If they were trying to get me out, it worked.

Horrifying sounds...

...fill the sky over Texas.

What the is that? That is so freaky!

Never heard anything like it before.

A shadow figure

roams the halls of an abandoned high school.

Bro! Bro! Bro, bro, bro, bro, bro, bro, bro, bro!

that!

It was just the craziest thing ever.

Like, I freaked out.

A security camera captures a ghost...

...making itself at home.

I felt kind of like,

"Well, I knew it all along and now I have proof."

And even more paranormal footage you have to see...

I'm not exactly sure what it is.

...to believe.

Having just one UFO sighting in your lifetime...

is considered rare.

UFOs! Hoo-hoo!

Now, imagine experiencing that after witnessing

several other mind-boggling events in a single day.

You may think, "Is it coincidence,

are they somehow related,

and could this be the beginning of the end?"

That's what happened to one man in Texas...

You hear that?

...when he witnessed a series of bizarre events

in one night...

What is that?

...that he is still trying to wrap his head around

to this day.

See that thing in the sky?

What the is that? That is so freaky!

May 2020, Bryan, Texas --

Bunch of fighter jets.

Several fighter jets

are flying past Daniel Robb's apartment complex.

It's a rare sight where he lives...

...so he grabs his phone and starts recording.

Another one.

You don't see many fighter jets over here.

For about 30 minutes the jets fly back and forth,

then they leave the area.

Daniel thinks nothing of it.

But later that night...

...during a bizarre lightning storm,

he's startled by a shrieking sound coming from the sky.

So there's this weird sound off in the distance,

and I'm trying to figure out what it is.

What is that?

It's coming from up in the sky in that direction.

And it's so loud. It sounds like screaming.

My name is Daniel, and this is my video.

I thought at first that maybe there was a woman

that was in danger

because it kind of sounded like a woman screaming.

What is that?

I never heard anything like it before.

What the is that? That sounds so scary.

It sounds like somebody's opening up the gates of Hell

and it's resting on some very rusty hinges.

That is so freaky!

For about an hour

the high-pitched harrowing sounds continue.

Like, it's literally like --

like a demon screaming in the air.

Then, suddenly Daniel spots something inside the storm.

See that thing in the sky? What is that?

Did you see it?

Watch closely.

It's a dark menacing object hanging in the sky

and it's only visible when lightning strikes.

It's coming from up in the sky in that direction.

When I first saw the black thing in the sky,

it kind of blew me away.

It raised the hair on the back of my neck.

It was very eerie.

From my estimation, it was in the same area

as the jets were flying earlier that morning.

It was in the exact same spot

at the exact same height in the sky.

Right there -- There's something dark in the sky.

I don't know what this is, but it's terrifying.

This looks like an apocalyptic scene.

It looks like the end of the world.

That is so scary. I get goose bumps.

Alright, I'm going back inside.

And Daniel's neighbors were just as concerned.

Can you hear that?

I know. It's been going on for like half an hour.

Hoping to find some answers,

Daniel calls his local news station.

And I asked them, "Have you heard anything about this?"

And they said, "No, we haven't got any calls."

And I was like, "Wow.

Because this is something that's filling the entire Sky.

I'm really surprised no one's reported this."

As it turns out,

the noise had been reported...

plenty.

10 minutes later,

the local news department went on air.

And in Bryan tonight --"Hey, Bryan, Texas,

if you heard that sound in sky tonight, it was...

...a steam pipe releasing steam at the college."

They actually said that it was just a valve

that was loose on a boiler in one of the buildings

that was releasing steam under high pressure.

But Daniel wasn't convinced.

The next morning, I went to the building

and the steam was still being released.

You could still see the steam, the steam coming out.

There was no sound.

I believe that they did a cover-up of it.

Even if it were a steam valve making the noise,

what was that black object in the sky?

And did the fighter jets flying by earlier

have anything to do with it?

The Jets were sort of flying in that vicinity

of where this was all going on.

It's like, were they deployed there

on some sort of a recon mission?

You don't see many fighter jets over here.

I didn't sleep for about 5 days after that.

I had a lot of people flooding my inbox asking me questions

and so I was up for a while

responding to every message I could

It was something that really stuck with me.

And Daniel has been looking for an explanation

ever since.

I've had people tell me that maybe it was something

coming from another dimension or from outer space.

I mean, I don't know what it was.

Maybe one day he will find the answers.

What is that bizarre sound?

Maybe.

Coming up...

a man in England...

Holy

...gets the fright of his life.

Look at the wood. The wood's goin' down!

Churches are sacred spaces where many go to find peace,

solace, and hope.

But what happens when a house of worship is no longer in use

and that once faith-filled building is boarded up

and left to decay?

Many believe that's when all the stored-up spiritual energy

begins to act out on its own.

Recently a man in England

went to one of these abandoned churches to see for himself.

That chair just moved.

Holy

And he wishes he never did.

Look at the wood.

Look at the wood. The wood's goin' down!

July 2020, Derbyshire, England --

For the last decade, Brian Hopwood...

...has been taking photos of abandoned buildings.

His friend recently told him about an old church

that he thought Brian would be interested in photographing,

so he's on his way to check it out...

...in the middle of the night.

My name is Brian Hopwood, and this is my video.

But before Brian even enters the church,

he hears a disturbing sound coming from within.

Freaked out but determined to get some good shots,

Brian enters through a broken window

and starts looking around for the source of the noise.

I searched virtually every room in building...

...and when was the wasn't nobody there.

Hello. Anyone in here?

Hello?

Two things are now terrifyingly clear to Brian --

What the

Narrator: Someone was just here....

Hello?

...and the source of the noise is in this room.

Then he examines the room a bit more closely

and his blood runs cold.

Look at these.

What the am I -- What is this

Satanic symbols are everywhere.

This is iconography

that's employed by the Church of Satan.

So this definitely seems to be more

than your run-of-the-mill teenage kid

with a spray can that paints a pentagram on a wall.

Whoever left these here

actually has some knowledge of Satanic rituals.

And for good reason because just seconds later...

What the man?

No! No, no. No, no. That chair just moved.

Holy

No.

I'm o-- look at the wood.

Look at the wood. The wood's goin' down!

Narrator: Watch again as first, the chair moves...

Holy

...followed by the board against the wall.

Look at the wood. The wood's goin' down!

When I saw that chair, I was terrified.

Then the wood went and I was out running.

No, no, no, no, no, no, no!

No, no, no, no, no, no, no. that, that,

that, that, that.

Nope.

Nope. No, no, no, no.

Brian escapes unharmed.

But what was it that chased him out?

And how did it get there in the first place?

In this case, it seems like whatever ritual that they did

definitely invited some sort of energy in,

but that energy didn't seem to go with the practitioners

out into the world.

It stuck around inside this church.

Whatever was trapped inside the church

and whether it was evoked

by the ritual Brian stumbled upon or not,

it shook him to his core.

Look at the wood. The wood's goin' down!

Coming up...

Phantom pets from around the world.

Ask any dog or cat owner

and they will tell you that their pet is part of the family.

And when a beloved pet passes on,

the loss that's felt is real.

Besides the loyalty, the companionship,

and the joy they bring, perhaps the hardest part

is realizing that those departed pets will never be seen again.

Or will they?

April 2020 in Hilltown, Pennsylvania,

Ty and Kathy Jacobs

have installed a trail cam in their backyard

to spy on a fox that's been digging under their house.

One day, Ty checks the photos from the camera...

...and spots an image

of what looks like their golden retriever

named Koda on the porch.

But Ty is baffled because Koda died seven years ago.

Look closely at what appears to be

an apparition of a dog on the left,

and Cathy in the center

bending over to pour cat food into a bowl.

I think what's cool about this

is that it's really obviously a golden retriever.

It's not an ambiguous shadow

that could be shaped like a dog if I squint my eyes.

It's not, "Well, it's a dog but it's not the right breed,"

or whatever.

It looks like a golden retriever,

just standing there looking at the house

like any pet would as it wants to come in.

The interesting thing about the picture

is we clearly see the woman of the house

bending down to pick up something off the deck,

but had there been an actual dog or even a fox

at the time when she was out there,

she clearly would have seen it.

She's only a couple feet away.

And we can kind of see right through the dog,

so that's no living dog.

Even though it was only a brief glimpse of Koda,

the Jacobs find comfort

in seeing her spirit on their back porch.

There's nothing stronger or purer

than the bond between a pet and a pet owner.

That is an unconditional love

and it's also an unadulterated spirit.

The spirit of a dog --

I mean, all dogs go to Heaven. We all know this.

The spirit of a dog is untainted.

It is pure, and that is the strongest kind of energy.

And for you cat lovers,

a similar incident happened across the pond

three months later.

July 2020, Essex, England --

Roommates Juliette Bird and Dee Crawte

are getting ready for bed

when their outdoor motion sensor camera sends them an alert.

My name's Juliette.And my name's Dee.

And this is all video.

I'm was up in bed and the camera alarm was going off.

So I went onto the app and had a look

and there was nothing there. So then I was like,

"Alright, if I press record, record something,

and see if anything appears up when I watch it back."

And I did it and it just so happened

that the cat was walking past as I pressed record.

And then when I watched it back was when I noticed

that obviously I can see the white cap,

but then there was this shadow following behind.

The white cat, which is actually next door neighbor's cat,

Topsy.

You can see Topsy walking past

and then suddenly within, like, a second,

out of nowhere, what looks like another cat.

But as it goes past, it just disappears.

It was see-through,

which you could still see the cars behind it

and the white cat, you couldn't.

So that's how we thought it was strange.

And watch again closely in slow motion

as a split-second before,

an orb seems to come down and land

right where the ghost cat appears.

I walked downstairs after and I had a look outside

and Topsy was sitting outside right by the cars,

but there was no other cats in the area.

This one was really impressive

as far as video evidence of an apparition.

I saw a cat walking from in front of a car

and then something that looks like an orb almost shoot down

from above, hit the ground,

and bam, turn into a spectral cat.

When I saw the beam of light kind of shoot the cat

into frame,

I couldn't help but question if this

was a glimpse into a multiverse.

If this was some copy of the cat

that we're seeing in some different dimension

almost the exact same, just so slightly different.

My first thought was,

"Is this sort of just an after image burned into the film?

Is it sort of just like a repetitive shadow

of the actual live cat?"

But when you look closely at it,

that doesn't seem to be the case.

The image of the second cat

does not seem to be a pure white cat like the first one.

There seems to be markings behind its left ear.

It seems to be slightly darker in its fur,

but it's transparent. There's no doubt about it.

It's certainly doesn't look like a flesh-and-blood cat.

I'm a firm believer that

human beings are not the only things that haunt spaces,

that animals can do the same, as well.

And it's very likely that a cat's energy

can still linger around.

Juliette and Dee are fascinated by their ghost cat capture

and they are hoping to get even more evidence of the afterlife.

I'm skeptic and I believe. Does that make sense?

I need to see before I believe, and this has sort of like

given me a little bit of maybe there is something out there.

I don't know.

Coming up...

a couple spots something in the sky...

What is that?

...that defies all logic.

It's not making any noise.

Dan: I don't see wings on it.

Airplanes are pretty basic when you break them down.

Generally, they have an engine to produce thrust,

wings to create lift,

and a tail fin to provide stability.

According to the laws of physics,

these are the elements required to keep an airplane flying.

So when in Ohio couple saw an object hurtling through the sky

that seem to have none of those things...

What is that? It's not making any noise.

I don't see wings on it.

...it was clear to them that what they were seeing...

I'm not exactly sure what it is.

...was not of this Earth.

July 2020 -- East Palestine, Ohio.

It's early evening,

and Krista and Dan Figley are walking their dogs

when they suddenly spot something in the sky...

...a shiny, cylinder-shaped object moving at a rapid pace.

What is that? Is it like a glider something?

I'm not exactly sure what it is.

It's not making any noise.

It's like a cigar shape.

I don't see wings on it.

My name is Krista.

And I'm Dan, and this is our video.

It was a beautiful summer night. I just happened to look up.

I was looking at the sky, and I saw it.

And in my mind, I'm trying to figure out what is this?

Is it a plane? Is it a drone?

And we've seen planes and drones before,

but this didn't look

like anything that we had seen before.

And it didn't make any sound whatsoever.

It looked like a white Tic Tac shape gliding in the sky.

Then, just 15 seconds after the object goes out of sight,

Krista and Dan spot something they do recognize,

and the difference is clear.

No, it's not shining anything like it was.

Now they are starting to get a little nervous.

Well soon as I figured out

that I didn't know what it was,

I really wanted to get the dogs and get back home

because I thought, should we be worried?

You know, what is this thing?

I just wanted to know what it was.

Then Dan and Krista think of something else

that makes the sighting even more alarming.

We're not very far from the Shippingport nuclear plant

in Shippingport, Pennsylvania.

So, I know they always say that UFOs

go around nuclear plants and nuclear sites.

We thought maybe that's what -- you know,

it was in this area because of that.

So what exactly was this object in the sky?

This is a pretty intriguing video.

What it looks like to me is the fuselage of an airplane

without the wings or a tail.

And we all know that something that shape simply can't fly.

Now, ironically enough over the past 100 years or so,

we've received hundreds if not thousands of reports

of UFO witnesses describing craft

that looks exactly like this.

They describe it as a cigar-like object.

Now, if you look at this video,

that's almost exactly what it looks like

we're looking at here.

I don't see wings on it.

And what about the nearby nuclear power plant?

Could that really have been its destination?

Anyone that's researched UFOs

know that there's some sort of connection

between UFOs and nuclear power,

or more specifically, nuclear warheads.

Past couple of decades, we've had a few instances

where UFOs have seemingly shutdown launches

by our U.S. military.

Terrifying.

And though we may never know why,

or even if that's where it was headed,

Krista and Dan are sure of one thing --

whatever they saw was extraterrestrial.

There's no doubt in my mind that there's other things out there.

Absolutely. You know, I think we'd be arrogant to think

that were the only creatures in this whole universe.

I'm definitely looking up to the sky a lot more.

Just even in my normal day-to-day activities,

I catch myself just looking up just to see what's up there.

He goes out and signals with the flashlight at night,

just hoping that we can bring them in.

I'm trying to get them in here.

We go to take the dogs out at night,

so I might as well entertain myself while I'm out there.

What is that?

I'm not exactly sure what it is.

Coming up --

a shadow figure roams the halls of a high school.

Bro! Bro! Bro! Bro! Bro! Bro! Bro! Bro! Bro! Bro! Bro!

that

When filled with students,

schools have a lot of activity roaming the halls.

But there are some schools that have a lot of activity

even after the kids are gone,

and it can often be of a much darker variety.

The former Crow Creek Reservation High in South Dakota

is said to be one of those schools.

Recently, a team of ghost hunters went there,

and what they saw will haunt them forever.

Bro, bro, bro, bro, bro...

Bro! Bro! Bro! Bro! Bro! Bro! Bro! Bro! Bro! Bro! Bro!

that

July 2020 -- Stephan, South Dakota.

C.J. Long Crow, Phil Wright, and Marlo LaRoche

are about to explore the reportedly haunted campus

of Crow Creek Reservation High School.

It started out as a boarding school

for Native American kids.

In 1971, it was converted into a high school,

but was eventually shut down due to what some believed

were the building's unsafe conditions.

Since then, locals have reported hearing strange sounds

and seeing mysterious figures in and around the building.

Tonight, C.J. and his friends are here

hoping to find some sort of paranormal activity

for themselves.

My name is C.J., and this is my video.

I felt real nervous when I walked in there,

only because, like, I didn't know

what we were gonna find in there,

and I didn't know what we were gonna see.

Holy

Those are dead birds?

Dude, this is...crazy.

There was actually, like, Satanist writing on the walls

in a lot of the rooms,

and that kind of drew a lot of red flags

for all three of us 'cause we're like, you know,

why are people right in the stuff in here, you know?

Oh, my God.

Dude, I heard something in this room.

They are now deep inside the abandoned building...

Do you hear that?

Sound like something moved down there.

...when out of nowhere...

Oh

Oh

Oh

Oh, God. Get the out.

Aaaaah!

Get the out of here.

Wait a minute. Let's see that again.

Oh

Oh

Oh

Okay, it was just a bird.

Oh

Aaaaah!

Go! Go! Go! Go! Go!

But at this point, more than enough

to send all of them running back home.

A few hours later, however, C.J. is restless

and goes back to the school by himself.

Everyone else is asleep, so...

It is pretty creepy out here alone, you know.

Then, C.J. spots something that stops him dead in his tracks.

I mean, just look at this building --

Oh

Bro, bro, bro, bro, bro...

Bro! Bro! Bro! Bro! Bro! Bro! Bro! Bro! Bro! Bro! Bro!

that

Did you catch that? Watch again.

As C.J. points his flashlight toward the 3rd story window,

he spots a dark shadow figure peering back at him.

I wasn't expecting to see anything that night, you know,

but as I get closer to the school,

and I point my flashlight up,

I see something, like, in the windowsill,

and it's staring at me.

And, like, I didn't know what that was,

so I freaked out,

and that's when I dropped the flashlight,

just out of, like, pure fear reaction.

And I pick it up,

and I pan back up with my camera and with the flashlight,

and it's not there no more, and I'm just like,

whoa, you know, like, what did I just see?

And then, not even probably 2 seconds after that,

you see that thing walk across,

and, like, it was just the craziest thing ever.

Bro, bro, bro, bro, bro...

Bro! Bro! Bro! Bro! Bro! Bro! Bro! Bro! Bro! Bro! Bro!

that

That's the money shot.

There is this obvious, clear shadow figure

moving across the windows on one of the upper stories.

This looks like the classic definition

of what a shadow figure is,

being that it's completely black, feature-less,

sort of in the form of a person moving around

and sort of peering out from behind a door or window.

Whatever this shadowy thing was,

it definitely seems to be aware

of the presence of this videographer.

I mean, just look at this building --

Oh

Whether it was aware of him or not,

the shadow figure sent C.J. running back home again.

Bro! Bro! Bro! Bro! Bro! Bro! Bro! Bro! Bro! Bro! Bro!

that

I jetted back home, and then I got home,

and I couldn't stop watching it.

I would replay it, replay it, replay it.

I've seen a ghost before,

but I've never seen a ghost in that type of form before.

That's why it was, like, so scary to me

because I've never seen anything like that in my life.

And although the shadow figure encounter was terrifying,

it also peaked C.J.'s curiosity.

It put a whole new perspective

of, like, you know, what else can be out there?

So, it actually made me more interested

than anything, even though, like, it scared me to death.

Bro! Bro! Bro! Bro! Bro! Bro! Bro! Bro! Bro! Bro! Bro!

that

Coming up --

a man who shares his house with a ghost.

When looking for a house to buy or rent,

many people rely on the vibe they get from the property

to help them make their decision.

If the house seems to speak to you in some way,

that can often clinch the deal,

which is what compelled one man in South Carolina

to purchase his new home.

But he later discovered

that it wasn't the house that was speaking to him...

...it was the spirit that lived inside it.

2014 in West Columbia, South Carolina.

Mark Podmore and his husband were looking at houses to buy

when Mark found himself inexplicably lured

by one home in particular.

My name is Mark Podmore, and these are my videos.

When we first looked at the house,

it was almost an unnatural attraction

I had to the house.

It was a feeling of "I'm home,"

almost like my mother were here greeting me.

They purchased the home and moved in.

Not long after, strange things began to happen.

We'd seen flashes of light out of the corners of our eyes.

We'd seen shadow figures.

Neighbors have seen people standing in the windows.

Those neighbors told Mark

they believed the house was haunted

by a previous owner named Sylvia who died there.

It didn't bother me a bit.

I don't know why. I've never felt that way before,

but it wasn't a scary feeling.

It was just a feeling of...warmth.

Then, in 2016,

after Mark had a motion detector security camera

installed in the living room,

his suspicions that the house was haunted

were finally confirmed.

I was at work, and I got an alert

that the security camera had picked up some some motion.

So I pulled it up on my phone.

I saw a shadow

and then a little, like, a flash of light.

And there's my dog looking over at it.

And then, looked like the afghan started to,

like, try and pick up,

and then the rocking chair started rocking.

Watch as the rocking chair seems to gain momentum.

And then, the afghan is suddenly almost lifted

off the back of the chair.

I felt kind of like, well, I knew it all along,

and now I have proof.

It definitely looks too steady and too much force there

to be just a passing draft or a fan or something coming on.

That chair is really rocking at a good pace for a while.

It seemed like this spirit was intentionally trying

to get the attention of the dog or just attention in general

and the dog happens to be the closest thing to it.

Dogs are able to sense when there is a spirit presence

because they have heightened abilities.

The fact that this dog

didn't seem too upset by this chair moving

makes me feel like it could sense

that whatever was there was friendly and benevolent

and wasn't going to harm them.

And there was more.

In 2020, Mark's home security camera

captured another startling event.

Watch as the living room light fixture

swings back and forth on its own.

We had some friends give us that wagon-wheel light fixture,

and the lady that used to clean the house

stopped by with her daughter one day.

She saw me out in the yard, and she came in, and she said,

"Oh, I see you got Miss Sylvia's light fixture.

It's exactly like the light fixture that was here before."

McNEILL: I think that the story behind it is the most interesting part.

The previous owner of the home, who is now deceased,

liked that kind of style, had a really similar lamp.

I feel like it's pretty clear.

Like, Miss Sylvia likes the lamp.

She's given it a thumbs up.

Spirits have a really interesting

and subtle way of interfering with our lives,

and it definitely feels like Sylvia

is pretty involved in his life.

And I'm wondering if she somehow influenced the gift giver

to give this particular light fixture to him

because she likes it so much and wants it in her house.

If in fact Sylvia is interfering with Mark's life,

he's totally fine with it.

There are certain times when I'll be in the kitchen cooking,

I'll have the burner on,

and something is just about ready to be scorched,

I imagine, and I'll turn back around,

I'll hear a click,

and the burner is turned off.

I mean, it's like she's looking out for us.

I talk to her all the time. I thank her for things.

It's like a relationship you have with somebody

who was like an angel, I guess.

Somebody who's constantly around you.

It's a good feeling. It's not a bad feeling.

And Mark has no plans of ever leaving Sylvia

or her haunted house.

This is our forever home. I don't see us leaving at all.

What should you do in the event

you witness something paranormal?

Here are some tips to get it all on camera.

Keep your eyes on the skies.

What the is that?

Never stop recording even when you're scared.

Look at the board move. No

Aaah!
