Next on Paranormal Caught on Camera...

A couple in Kentucky is tormented

by a mysterious presence in their new home.

What the.

I was scared out of my mind. I mean, am I going crazy?

A terrifying woodland creature...

...creeps around a forest in Poland.

You see something that's pure nightmare fuel.

A Long Island watering hole that serves the living

and the dead.

I saw something that almost looked like

classic devil-type creature.

A man in Europe reckons with a ghostly roommate.

There is a lot of, like, intense energy

going on in this apartment.

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

...to believe.

Ideally, moving into a new home is exciting.

Maybe you're upgrading your space.

Establishing new roots.

Or even planning to start a new family.

But be careful.

Because sometimes,

there are things that can get in your way.

Specifically, paranormal things.

That's what one woman in Kentucky has been dealing with.

Because her new home

seems to have uninvited guests

who won't leave.

What the.

July, 2020, in Louisville, Kentucky,

Ashley State and her husband Kevin

have just moved into a new town house.

And almost immediately,

Ashley feels there is something about the place

that seems off.

My name is Ashley State, and I was the one that captured the footage.

We moved in in July,

and it only took me maybe two or three days

to really notice that there was activity in the house.

It really just started with,

well, the cabinets are left open,

and we didn't leave those open.

Ashley starts to record the activity on her cell phone

and home security cameras.

And what she captures is...

disturbing.

There are strange noises

constantly.

Cabinets opening and closing on their own.

Random items inexplicably falling to the floor.

And as it continues,

Ashley is getting more and more freaked out.

And then I would hear footsteps at night

and my dogs would bark.

So we took two old cell phones.

I set one on the back of a couch and just left it,

and we caught what looks like an apparition or a person

going up the stairs.

Look closely...

at what indeed appears to be a figure

walking up the staircase.

We set up more cameras.

The more we set them, the more we caught.

And the more evidence they catch,

the more convinced they are

that what they are dealing with

is paranormal.

These series of clips have some pretty incredible evidence in them.

Now, you see moving objects,

you see things sliding across tables,

cabinets begin to open up.

If that happens once or twice, that's really not enough

to assume that there is a haunting.

But when you have this happen over and over again

in ways that can't be explained with simply gravity,

that's when you know there might be something going on here.

Then, one night, something happens

that nearly sends Ashley over the edge.

She hears loud noises coming from downstairs.

And when she goes to check it out...

What the.

...finds her kitchen in total disarray.

When we captured the cabinets opened

and, you know, like, the faucet on,

I was scared out of my mind.

I mean, am I going crazy?

What the.

It's just a crazy amount of activity

to sort of all happen simultaneously.

What the.

It's just got to be a very disorienting

and terrifying experience.

It felt like it was kind of spiraling out of control.

I literally would be in tears some nights

and just sit there and cry,

and think about, you know, how do I get myself out of this situation.

There's got to be something, you know,

I'm searching for answers the whole way through.

In hopes of getting some clarity,

Ashley has an empath come to her house

to assess the situation.

This is where I hear things running back and forth.

But the biggest clue comes from someone

much closer to home.

A former manager of the community they live in.

She sent me a message and said,

"Hey, just so you know you're not crazy,

there's several units, hotspots in the community

where people will move in,

they notice the activity, and they move out."

Apparently, I'm not the only unit.

I'm not really sure why there is activity here,

because it's not like an old property.

I mean, these were built in 2014.

There's a misconception that a place has to be old in order to be haunted.

However, that's not the case.

New locations can likewise have paranormal activity.

Whether we're talking about psychokinetic energy

or whether we're talking about

a manifested presence of some kind...

...people can draw that energy or bring it with them,

or it can be something that exists in what used to be the open space

where these town houses now are built.

I've tried to rationalize that, you know,

my sister is telling me,

maybe you live, you know, in another dimension,

and it's just the walls are thin.

Maybe you live on a hill and things just fall open and fall out.

I just don't know, and I've had so many opinions thrown at me

that it's just kind of like a garbled mess.

Give us this day our daily bread

and forgive us our trespasses...

And at this point, Ashley has reached her limit.

I'm just tired of dealing with it, and I want away from it.

What's this doing on?

It's my advice almost always that if you don't feel comfortable,

the best thing to do is get out.

Which is exactly what they're doing.

We are actually looking farther away from Louisville,

and just have a space that we can call our own.

Of course, you know, I'm leary about anything,

you know, I would hope that I wouldn't run into anything like this again.

What the.

Coming up...

Terrifying sounds in the darkness...

...that lead to this.

Whatever it is, it's definitely not human.

Have you ever heard a sound out your window at night

that was so mysterious, so terrifying,

that it unsettled you to your core?

Now, imagine for a moment

that you had done the unthinkable

and actually followed that horrific sound

to its source.

Where do you think it would have taken you?

One man in Poland knows the answer to that question.

Because he did follow a terrifying sound...

...and found something that will haunt him forever.

January, 2020,

near Lodz, Poland.

It's late at night,

and after hearing strange sounds coming from their barn,

two men grab their flashlights and check it out.

Hearts pounding, they slowly open the barn door.

Listen carefully as something inside

makes a strange gurgling noise.

Still, they enter the barn.

Then...

Watch again, in slow motion,

as something seems to have just fallen off

this stone structure

and scampered around the back of it.

They point their camera toward the top of the structure...

when...

Look closely,

as the head of someone, or something,

pops up from the roof of the stone structure

scaring the men senseless

and out of the barn.

This is another classic horror movie setup.

There is an animalistic growl coming from this barn,

and yet the man continues to explore.

And then he sees something that's pure nightmare fuel.

It looks like it must have been feeding on something.

The sounds it was making,

maybe it had some kind of a kill.

Which is really terrifying.

This just seemed to be a head that raised up.

And I got the sensation that you were only seeing

a minute portion of it.

The creature is not seen again...

until two months later.

When the man who filmed the first encounter

hears the same horrifying sounds...

...this time coming from nearby woods.

He turns on his flashlight hoping to get a better look

at whatever is out there.

And suddenly...

...spots it.

But he has no idea what he is seeing.

So he moves a little closer.

Take a look, zoomed in,

as a strange hairless crouching creature,

perhaps the same one that was in the barn,

shrieks at the man...

...sending him running away again as fast as possible.

This appears to be

some sort of hairless, pale creature,

bald, with glowing eyes,

almost goblin-esque.

Whatever it is, it's definitely not human.

It's all bent over,

but you see gangly arms and legs

kind of poking out from this mass,

that to me suggest

that this is a sinewy, skinnier creature.

The sounds are terrifying,

the visual is terrifying.

So, what is this thing?

There are so many creatures of Polish folklore

that this could be.

My mind went to the Leshy,

a forest entity

that can serve as a protector of woodland creatures

but also appear as demonic to interlopers.

There is this one legend in Poland called the Bebok,

which is kind of like a bogeyman.

And it's supposed to be the souls of dead children.

So this thing is kinda terrifying.

To be honest, it kind of ties into something

I've started uncovering here in the States.

I've received several reports lately

of these creatures called the Pale Walkers.

Now, essentially, they're skinny, humanoid,

they are white or pink in color,

they seem to have big ears, no clothes,

and they kind of act the same way this does.

They show up at nights and they stay in the distance.

This could be an inter-dimensional creature

that's not supposed to be within our space,

yet here it is.

And imagine how terrifying it is

to be a creature on a planet you don't know or understand

and you're being pursued by

what he would consider would be an alien.

Like, what if we're the aliens?

Unfortunately, we'll likely never know what this thing was,

unless someone is able to capture even more evidence.

But don't hold your breath.

Coming up...

Bartenders are harassed...

...by a ghost.

Bars, by design,

are chock-full of emotional energy.

Some people come to celebrate, some to mourn,

some are there simply to be in the presence of others.

But each person leaves behind residual energy

that lingers forever,

and over time, that energy can result in a haunting.

Some more intense than others.

Just consider the case of one particular bar

on Long Island.

October, 2010,

in Smithtown, New York.

At Katie's Bar, a popular watering hole on Long Island,

a bartender named Christine is working her shift,

when suddenly...

Did you see it?

Watch again, zoomed in,

as a glass flies off the shelf behind Christine on its own,

hitting her on the backside.

Two months later, again at Katie's,

as a man in a baseball cap

awaits the attention of a bartender...

Did you catch that one?

Watch again,

as a soda gun lifts itself out of its holster,

suspends itself in mid-air,

and finally, falls to the ground.

January, 2012, at Katie's yet again.

As a bartender chats with a patron...

Watch, as another glass flies off the shelf,

hitting the bartender directly on the backside.

But this time, it's much creepier.

Watch to the right of the frame

as a phantom face seems to be observing

as the glass flies off the shelf.

This is just a sampling

of the strange supernatural phenomena

that has been captured at Katie's.

And owner Brian Karppinen...

has seen it all.

My name is Brian Karppinen,

and the videos are from my bar Katie's at Smithtown.

It takes a lot to shock me,

but a lot of people who come in,

they feel things, or they sense things.

There is movement where it sets off all these alarms and stuff,

so much where the police come

and I owe $2,000 in fines

for the police showing up.

And I have to go to court and explain to the judge,

you know, it's a haunted bar,

you know, what do you want me to do?

So, like, there's a lot of , dude.

And it's really crazy, and, you know, just really spooky.

We're seeing sort of a classic attention-grabbing

type of activity.

Glasses are being smashed on the ground,

objects are moving,

the drink dispensers

are clearly being lifted up out of place,

to the point where patrons are sort of jumping up

and pointing, and noticing.

I think the fact that we're seeing a light anomaly

come out of the soda gun

as it lifts off the holder and falls,

there is more than just the objects moving on its own.

You're seeing the culprit.

You're seeing this light anomaly

interact with that object.

The activity looks like it's connected to the idea

of serving a drink.

On one hand, these glasses are being slid from the shelf.

And on another, we see the soda gun.

Maybe there's a ghost

that just wants to lend a hand behind the bar,

and serve up some drinks.

It's not like the same thing happens all the time,

other than the glasses. That's constant.

And then, there's the face.

The face, a lot of people were seeing that

on reflective surfaces for about a two, three-month period,

and then it never happened again.

I saw something that almost looked like

classic devil-type creature,

like, almost a horse-ish or goat-ish face.

We see a mouth with sort of a prominent muzzle.

It did not look human to me.

It's twirling, it's undulating.

Some people say it's a face,

some people say it's a little animal of some sort.

It's really difficult to see what it is,

but there's something there moving.

And I just can't tell you what it is.

Perhaps the bar's unfortunate history

can give us some clues.

This bar was built on the same foundation

as a hotel that was called the Trainor's Hotel.

It burnt down December 5th, 1909.

So, a lot of feelings are that

the darker element might have something to do

with that hotel fire.

And then, there's an even darker element

having to do with someone named Charlie Klein,

who owned a bar that was near this same site

almost a century ago.

Charlie Klein was arrested for serving during prohibition

to G-men,

and he was having some financial difficulties

and he, unfortunately, took his own life

just a few months before prohibition ended.

It's kind of hard to say who is haunting your place,

but when you have this sort of

multi-faceted and sometimes tragic history,

that'd be the first place I'd look.

A burnt-down hotel,

a speakeasy owner who commits suicide,

there's more than one thing happening in this space.

If the activity really is being caused by a former employee,

that actually makes a lot of sense.

It feels like his spirit

is still trying to do his night shift.

And because he is a spirit, he isn't able to actually

perform his duties properly,

which results in a bunch of glasses falling on the ground.

The history of a place like this,

one that has some tragedy, maybe even a suicide,

can contribute to the initial haunting,

but I feel it's the patrons that keep it going.

Brian agrees,

which is why Katie's and its patrons

welcome the supernatural reputation.

We do embrace it because I'd say nine out of ten of them

really enjoy the folklore or whatever

A lot of people are fascinated with the other side,

with the spirit world.

We still don't know where we come from

and where we go when we pass.

So, to have something like Katie's

be almost this magnet for people to come

and have their own personal experiences there,

have a paranormal experience at Katie's

is something that people will like to knock off their bucket list.

Coming up...

A man in the Netherlands is haunted

by the spirit of a former tenant.

Of course.

Home...

There really is no place like it.

It's where you feel comfortable, safe,

and hopefully,

free from any terrifying paranormal activity.

But be warned...

Under the right circumstances,

all it takes is one small seemingly insignificant incident

to unleash a monster.

That's what happened to one man in the Netherlands,

when a small leak in the unit above him

brought something into his home...

...that terrified him.

October, 2020, in Haarlem, the Netherlands.

Hedde Amama has lived comfortably in his apartment

for 15 years.

And then, something happened.

My name is Hedde Amama.

Hedde suspects that Binky's odd behavior

is connected to the work that was done upstairs.

If this building needed renovation,

someone's coming in and ripping out old material

and putting in new material,

that sort of activity that really

alters the bones of a place,

changes the foundation of it,

really shakes up the energy.

And that can be a positive experience,

and that can be a negative experience.

For Hedde, it's been decidedly negative,

and absolutely paranormal.

And then, late one night,

Hedde captures this...

Yeah. Oh, no.

Huh?

Hedde is freaked out.

And unfortunately for him, it's not over yet.

Later that night, whatever opened that door

returns.

Huh?

Whoa. What?

Whoa. What?

There is a lot of, like, intense energy

going on in this apartment.

I don't know whether I would want to even stay in there or not

after seeing this video of the door opening and closing.

Whatever presence is here,

it seems incredibly corporeal.

It doesn't seem like an apparition

or a residual presence.

It seems like a person...

or a creature.

Something is rattling that door handle.

Something or someone.

Hedde has an idea

and it has to do with the sudden unexpected death

of the apartment's previous tenant.

A lot of times when you have people die like an untimely death,

they don't really know they're dead

and maybe this guy is,

you know, just in this apartment

because he doesn't know where to go,

or doesn't know how to move on.

But Hedde isn't waiting for the ghost to figure it out.

He's looking for a new place to live and until then...

Whoa. What?

Coming up...

A cosmonaut spots this UFO

from the International Space Station.

We know there's a lot of stuff floating around in the cosmos,

but none of it flies like what we see here.

The International Space Station

has been occupied by astronauts since the year 2000.

Orbiting roughly 250 miles above the Earth,

circling our planet about 16 times a day.

Those onboard,

not only have an incomparable view of the planets and stars,

but are extremely familiar with any and all objects

within our immediate atmosphere.

Right?

Well, maybe not.

Because one Russian cosmonaut aboard the vessel,

captured something so mysterious,

it's left both he and his colleagues completely baffled.

August 19, 2020,

on board the International Space Station,

orbiting the Earth,

Ivan Vogner, is a Russian cosmonaut,

researching new techniques

to improve photography of the Earth from space.

One of these techniques involves programming his camera

to shoot a time-lapse sequence of the aurora australis,

also known as the southern lights.

But when the space station is in orbit above Antarctica,

Ivan's camera captures,

something a little more startling than the southern lights.

Watch closely.

Did you catch that?

Watch again, in slow motion,

as a string of what looks to be four or five synchronized lights,

moves along the glowing curve of the Earth...

then quickly disappears.

So, what are we seeing here?

We know there's a lot of stuff floating around in the cosmos.

There are asteroids, and meteorites,

and space debris, and satellites,

but none of it flies like what we see here.

The fact that they move in such unison

and you don't see the lights separate,

or going at different speed, leads me to believe that

we're looking at one solid object.

This craft is hundreds of miles,

if not thousands of miles long.

I don't know what this is, but there's obviously something there.

When Ivan converged the time-lapse to real time,

he discovers that the strange light formation

is visible for nearly one full minute.

But even then, he has no idea what he's seeing.

Stunned, he submits the video to Russian officials,

hoping for an explanation.

It is one thing when an intelligent

and rational everyday person

looks up at the sky and says, "What the heck is that?"

It is a whole other ballgame

when a cosmonaut, living on the ISS,

looks into space and sees something that he can't explain.

This is a man who is

pretty well aware of the types of crafts

that are in outer space,

especially the ones that are manmade.

We have seen videos taken from the International Space Station

that appear to be UFOs

entering and exiting our atmosphere

from vectors that don't make sense.

They're not manmade crafts.

And these have been earmarked as mysteries.

And as of the end of 2020,

there's been no conclusive statement released

from Russian officials or NASA

regarding the mysterious string of lights.

This is not a game or a prank

played by some random YouTuber.

Due to the seriousness of the International Space Program

and the Russian Space Program,

if this could be easily dismissed or explained,

it would have been.

The fact that they haven't

drawn attention to what this thing is, tells me

they probably don't know what this thing is either,

which kinda scares me a bit.

Scary or not,

it's almost certainly

not the last time we'll see something like it.

Mankind is still in its infancy as a space-faring race.

There's an entire galaxy around us

and a universe beyond that,

so we're just scratching the surface

of what we're seeing in our own atmosphere.

These lights,

these might be part of a puzzle that spans light years,

that reach to other worlds

that we're only getting a taste of now.

Imagine what we'll find out tomorrow.

Coming up...

A paranormal investigator

confronts a legendary foe in Jordan.

The jinn...

Shapeshifting, invisible creatures that have occupied

a significant portion of Arabian lore for centuries.

And while legends says

that the jinn can often be helpful to humans,

including the ability to grant wishes,

other times, they can be vicious.

One man in Jordan was witness to that firsthand

because he investigated an abandoned house

where the jinn was rumored to have possessed a young girl.

And what he found

seemed to prove that beyond a doubt.

August, 2020, in Jordan.

Ahab Khwazime is a paranormal investigator,

exploring an abandoned home with a dark past.

According to legend,

a young girl who once lived there

was tormented and possessed

by an entity known as a jinn.

As Ahab walks through the house,

he recounts parts of the story.

Jinn are elemental spirits

that are somewhere in-between angels and demons.

These are very powerful beings,

much more powerful than us humans

and they're highly respected in the Middle East for good reason.

Ahab is determined to make contact with whatever is here...

Jinn or otherwise...

After a few minutes of looking around,

he asks a simple question.

Did you catch that?

Listen again, carefully,

as a young female voice responds, "I'm here",

just before a door slams.

We do hear a female voice

and it sounds much closer

than the other noise that we're hearing,

as if somebody has come wandered in

and is trying to interact with him.

Was that leftover energy

from a possessed girl that once lived there?

Is that an intelligent

or an aberrational haunting happening,

you know, in real time as he's recording?

I don't know. I can't answer either of those questions.

What I can say is I believe

he genuinely captured a disembodied voice.

Or this could be a little bit more malevolent in nature.

It could be this entity, the jinn,

luring him, bringing him forward by saying,

"Oh, I'm just a girl. I'm a victim. I was possessed,"

to get him to drop his guard

to be able to do something more nefarious to him.

Either way, Ahab is starting to get some bad vibes

as he walks into what he believes to be the young girl's bedroom.

There's a lot of different researchers,

some are more sensitive than others.

They follow their gut

and they can feel the presence of somebody else there.

Ahab's gut tells him to stand in front of a mirror.

Then...

Watch again as a shadowy figure with long hair

emerges right behind him.

I don't know what we're looking at,

but it's scary as hell.

Haunts are always like this

layer upon layer upon layer of energy

until it gets to the ultimate point of manifestation.

And I think that's what you're seeing here.

If a young girl truly was possessed in that room,

then, maybe, all of that

negative energy is still lingering inside there.

Ahab is totally freaked out

and makes his way back down the hallway,

but it's not over yet.

Watch closely.

Watch again as a small childlike figure

appears to poke it's head out from a doorway.

Then, quickly retreats.

If you're investigating a house

and you see a small child peer at you

from down a hallway,

chances are you're absolutely not alone.

You have no idea what else is around you.

Regardless, Ahab rushes to confront the apparition.

And finds...

nothing.

But at this point, Ahab has had enough.

He ends his investigation for the night.

One might ask the question,

"Was he in any real danger here?"

I'd say, "Yes."

Anytime you put yourself out into these unknown spaces,

you are taking a risk.

What should you do in the event

you witness something paranormal?

Here are some tips to get it all on camera.

Leave your cameras running.

Follow the noise.
