Next onParanormal Caught on Camera,

an urban explorer in Ohio confronts his first spirit.

It really made me truly believe in the paranormal.

The family in Ontario is haunted...

That wasn't there a couple of days ago.

...by a spectral handprint.

This isn't just a brief "Hey, I'm here right now.

I'm reaching out."

This is a "Hey, I'm here all the time.

This is my space too."

Is this toddler in Nevada

dancing with a child's ghost?

The fact that there is no second boy in the room at the time

is really kind of chilling.

A family and their dog in Minnesota...

...catch a Bigfoot in the backyard.

Oh, my God.

Whatever that thing is in the backyard,

obviously, this dog has never seen anything like that before,

and it's probably never smelled anything like that before.

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

Have you ever heard about the black-eyed children?

They're usually anywhere from 6 to 16 years old,

appear suddenly in one's home,

and look just like any other child,

except for the pure black eyes and in rare cases,

feet that look like talons.

No one knows specifically why they appear,

but those who have witnessed them

describe an overwhelming sense of dread when they do.

And if you think they are simply the result

of an overactive imagination,

listen to the story of one father in Reno, Nevada,

who may very well have captured one on camera.

December 2009 in Reno, Nevada.

Tony Noguera is watching a live concert on television

with his two-and-a-half-year-old son, Elijah,

when Elijah starts dancing to the music.

Inspired, Tony films Elijah with his phone

and doesn't think too much more about it.

Hey, look at Elijah. Go like this.

Elijah, hey, like this. Elijah, look here.

Hey.

Elijah, go like this.

Cheese!

But three years later,

Tony is showing a friend the same video

and they noticed something strange.

Watch closely.

Hey, look at Elijah. Go like this.

Elijah, hey, like this. Elijah, look here.

Hey. Elijah, go like this.

Cheese!

Hey did catch it?

Watch again.

As a child-like figure can be seen behind Elijah.

And is then seemingly acknowledged

by the two-year-old child himself.

It appears again one last time

before finally disappearing.

Tony is spooked.

My name is Tony Noguera.

I'm the one that filmed the video.

I happened to see someone in the background

and I'm like, wait a minute, I've never seen that before,

you know, and it was only us three that were at the house,

my son, my mom and then myself.

And what kind of shocked me as well too

is when my son was dancing to the video,

he kind of like stopped and looked that way.

And then he kind of like, realized, Hey, what's that?

You know, and then he turned back around.

It just looked like a... like a child or something like that.

It's weird to describe.

This one creeped me out.

I mean, this is one of those, in my opinion, ideal captures.

If somebody told me this was a living boy,

I wouldn't have thought twice about it,

but the fact that there is no second boy

that was in the room at the time, it is really kind of chilling.

At first, I was like, oh, maybe this is like a doll in the background.

You know, it didn't seem exactly human.

But when I see it actually kind of move

and walk to the left, that's when I realized, okay,

this is not just some doll or a reflection of something.

To me, it looks like a child standing back there.

What's especially cool about this

is that as the little boy is dancing,

he seems to take notice at some point

of this other tiny dancer.

He's clearly cool with whatever is taking place there.

He's not super freaked out, he's not really upset,

but it helps confirm.

Okay, there's someone there.

That's not a piece of furniture

that we're mistaking for another child.

Elijah saw it too.

So what is the it that Elijah saw that day?

Tony's house's unique location might give us a clue.

When we bought this house,

we didn't know at the time, but years later,

people that lived in Reno told me that this property,

where I live at, this whole site is an old burial ground.

I do think it has something to do with it,

because I mean, that's not like the only thing

that's happened in the house.

I've seen shadows in the house before,

you know, when nobody else was here,

just random stuff, you know.

You've got to be careful when you buy a property

that was built over a former cemetery,

because a lot of times they don't get all the bodies up and out.

The fact that this community is built on top of a cemetery,

it's very disrespectful of the dead.

Maybe this child that's appearing

is one of the children that was buried in this cemetery.

Well, maybe he saw what Elijah was doing,

and he's like, "Hey, this kid's dancing,

maybe now let me get in there and play with him."

Who knows?

Maybe.

Or could it be something far more terrifying?

I see what looks like a small child.

And I'm seeing the hollow black eyes.

Very telltale sign of like the black-eyed children.

Black-eyed children have a tendency to target children,

because it's easier for children

to allow these types of entities in.

A lot of people say that in order for black-eyed children

to get within your space,

that they need to be invited in almost like vampires.

It seems like the child in this video

acknowledges the presence of this child of this other being

and it seems like he already had that invitation to be within his space.

So maybe unbeknownst to this child's parents,

this young boy had already given permission to this black-eyed child

to enter into their home.

If that's the case, it appears to have been a one-time invite,

because there's been no sign of the mystery child since.

And even if he does come back, Tony is okay

with whatever happens.

If there is a, you know, a spirit here or whatever,

it's never bothered me at all.

I don't have any issues with it, you know, I'm still here.

Coming up, a family in Minnesota...

Oh, my God, did you see that?

...gets a little too close to Bigfoot.

We better get back inside, guys.

Fiercely loyal and instinctually fearless,

dogs will do anything to protect their families...

...no matter how bad the odds.

So just imagine what it would take

to send one of these canine heroes

running for cover.

A family in Minnesota found out the hard way,

one Christmas Day.

Oh, my God.

When their brave pooch ran full speed into the woods,

only to find himself snout to snout...

...with Bigfoot.

Oh, my God.

December 2014, Northern Minnesota.

The Byrd family is celebrating Christmas

home movie style.

Say Merry Christmas, everyone.

Merry Christmas.

But when the camera pans toward the living room window.

Who is that?

Oh, my God. Did you see that?

Watch again.

As a massive dark bipedal figure slips behind the garage.

Stunned, the entire family rushes outside

to see who or what it is.

Did you see that?

It was really big.

Moments later, it appears again through the trees.

Then suddenly, their dog, Riff,

catches wind of what's going on

and heads straight for it...

Only to turn back around seconds later...

Stay here, Riff.

You stay here.

Rattled, Riff stays close to the family at a safe distance.

But the family is determined to get another look.

I'm gonna get closer. I don't know.

I still hear it.

Then ripping through a clearing in the trees,

they see it again.

Even closer than before.

Riff, stay here.

And it is now clear that whatever this thing is,

it is not human.

Finally, the family makes a wise choice.

We better get back inside, guys.

Once inside, they are sure of it.

What they just saw was Bigfoot.

This is really compelling footage.

We have an obvious family gathering,

clearly a normal time that someone might be filming Christmas morning,

the camera pans past the Christmas tree

and it pans to the window where it stops.

Who's that?

And then we proceed to get this really awesome footage of Bigfoot.

- That can't be. - It's large, very dark from head to toe.

It seems to be hairy, and then we see the way it walks,

and it's got this long stride as it plods through that snow.

Oh, my God, did you see it?

Yeah.

It's covering terrain, fast, snowy terrain,

which is not easy to do.

There it is, right over there.

Instantly, what I noticed right away

was the way that the leg and knee were bent,

that it didn't seem to move like a normal human being.

It seemed to have a different stature

that was very reminiscent and very identical to a Bigfoot

or Sasquatch creature.

And then their dog, their dog comes running out of the house

and he goes cranking towards this figure.

And the thing that makes it most legit for me,

as quick as the dog is running and barking,

it gets to a point, turns around and runs right back

and stands its ground closer to the family.

The dog is spooked. Whatever that thing is in the backyard,

obviously, this dog has never seen anything like that before,

and it's probably never smelled anything like that before.

A lot of dogs will go after mountain lions,

bears and they'll get right up close, no fear.

But when it comes to Bigfoot or Sasquatch,

there seems to be this wall that stops these animals from moving forward.

But if this is Bigfoot,

what is it doing so close to a house full of people?

There are more stories of Bigfoot encounters because,

you know, we are encroaching on their space out there.

So maybe this thing was just looking for food,

because it was that close to the house.

So what does it mean that Bigfoot or a Bigfoot-like creature

is being pushed out of the depths of the wilderness

toward that boundary where wilderness meets civilization?

It can't be anything good.

We better get back inside, guys.

Fortunately, whatever this thing was,

the Byrd family hasn't seen it since,

meaning maybe Riff was a bit more intimidating than he thought.

Coming up, a man in England captures evidence

of a ghostly legend.

She was literally hunched over walking into nowhere.

Launched by the Royal Navy in 1765,

theHMS Victory is most widely known as Lord Horatio Nelson's

flagship during the Battle of Trafalgar in 1805,

during which despite claiming victory for the British,

Nelson himself was killed.

Today, theVictory is docked in Portsmouth, England,

and visited by 350,000 tourists a year

with many believing that the famed ship is haunted,

which might be why one particular tourist

captured this on a recent visit.

March 2018, Portsmouth, England.

Paranormal enthusiast, Tony Ferguson,

is exploring the HMS Victory, a 250-year-old naval warship

with a ghostly reputation.

My name is Tony Ferguson and I filmed the video.

I had a lot of reports of people seeing apparitions

and having sort of experiences on the ship.

So I decided to go and have a look at the ship myself

just to sort of see if the speculations were true.

Tony boards the ship in the morning

as soon as it opens to the public

and has the place essentially to himself.

Though to him, it certainly doesn't feel like that.

Are there any spirits down here?

Can you tell us your names, please?

You felt like you were pretty much

being followed around the whole time.

That's the best way to describe it.

You never felt like you were on your own.

Using infrared night vision and a spirit box,

Tony searches the corridors and cabins below.

Can you say ship?

Thank you.

And as creepy as the EDPTs he captures on the lower deck are...

Did you die on this ship?

It's what happens on the upper deck

that truly shocks Tony.

Watch closely.

Did you catch that?

Watch again.

As the ghostly figure of a woman walks through the next room

and apparently right through the wall.

Tony isn't aware of the apparition in the moment.

It's only after he reviews the footage later

that he spots it.

I was shocked in the sense of

how solid it came across on camera.

She was literally hunched over walking into nowhere,

and that's what really surprised me.

And even then, he can hardly believe it.

I was sort of looking and thinking,

how could that be?

She's so solid, but then I'm look at her dress

thinking I definitely didn't see anyone looking like that

on the ship.

This is really an incredible capture,

because we have a full-bodied apparition.

It doesn't look like the stereotypical type of ghost.

It's not vaporous, it's not see-through.

It looks solid. It looks three dimensional.

The figure itself has an interesting demeanor about it.

The way it's carrying itself, it's sort of in its hands

clasped behind its back, and it's sort of bowing forward

a little bit as it walks,

as if it's worried or concerned about something.

The fact that she disappears through the wall,

that's what makes this seem like, okay,

even if I'm not taking his word for it, where did she go?

Tony had the same thought.

I went back to go and try and debunk it,

because I wasn't sure where that part of the ship leaded it to.

So I went back there and in my shock I was like,

okay, so this leads to nowhere.

But if this is an apparition, who is it?

For Tony, given what he knows about theVictory,

one person comes to mind.

When the ship went out to war,

there was a lot of death on theVictory

and according to reports, Lord Nelson died on the ship as well.

And what I find interesting about this capture was that

where the camera picked her up,

that's the area where apparently where the lady and the man of the actual ship

would have been spending a lot of their time.

So could it be that maybe the apparition that I caught on camera

was actually Lord Nelson's wife?

There are a lot of stories about theHMS Victory being haunted.

People have seen apparitions of Admiral Nelson himself,

but also his wife, Frances or Fanny, who was set to visit him there

in the upper quarters of the ship,

quite often while he was stationed on.

I think there's a really good chance

that the woman we're seeing here is the wife of the captain of this ship.

If people have reported seeing her before,

then it would make sense that this would be the same woman.

I believe that there's a lot of residual energy in there,

because residual energy is whatever replays itself.

So I think a lot of stuff, what people are seeing

there could just be like a residual of things just appearing

in their own time, but we're pick it up on their own time.

And Fanny or not, considering the warship's checkered history,

it's haunted reputation makes sense.

There's a romance to haunted ships,

but there's also the fact that a lot of them saw a very bloody battle.

So there were a lot of lives cut short.

Which is why Tony keeps going back.

I've been back a couple of times.

I always go back to locations two or three times

just to sort of try and work the spirits there.

There's been a few things caught.

I believe theVictory is very haunted.

Coming up,

what kind of creature leaves a permanent handprint.

I don't see it ever going away.

I think it's going to be there.

The vast majority of paranormal encounters

are mercifully fleeting.

But there's one specific supernatural occurrence

that when it happens, is seemingly quite permanent,

a spectral handprint.

And as one family in Canada has learned,

if your house is marked with one,

be prepared for it to stay there forever.

The exact same print is still there,

even though it's had another coat of paint over top of it.

Hamilton, Ontario.

For years, Lori-Lee Craig has lived in a house

that she is sure is haunted.

My name is Lori-Lee Craig, and I filmed the video.

We had a little oven.

There's been times when the little oven had come down

and opened up by itself, like up and down.

We'd just kind of catch it out of the corner of our eyes,

so we can see it happening.

The little book that had the recipes on it

would move sometimes as well.

Predominantly, though, we would hear things going on at nighttime

and we'd be sitting there going,

"Oh, the cats are playing downstairs,"

and then we would look over

and they'd both be sitting on the bed.

The odd activity certainly spooked Lori-Lee and her husband,

but it didn't freak them out too much.

That is until May 3rd, 2014.

When late one day, Lori-Lee is walking up her staircase

and notices something strange.

So you can't see it and then suddenly it's there.

A mysterious handprint

plastered high on the wall above her.

There is no way

anybody could physically get there.

And as Lori-Lee's husband demonstrates.

You look and there's the stairs,

this thing is six feet above the stairway.

I'm standing on the stairs, for Christ's sake.

It's so far above them

that how it got there is beyond explanation.

There is no way anybody Could have gotten that handprint there.

It's physically impossible.

And it wasn't there a couple of days ago.

Lori-Lee and her husband are now genuinely freaked out.

Because there's a handprint,

you can't reach it and you're over six feet.

There is no way.

It was definitely something freaky, to be honest,

because you don't expect to find a handprint

and especially not a handprint

where someone can actually reach.

My husband is over 6'1"

and even standing trying to position his hand there, he couldn't reach it.

And so it became a big question of where did this come from?

Why is it there?

This is a peculiar phenomenon,

because where the handprint is placed

is at quite the height,

certainly not somewhere that a person would

normally naturally smack the wall.

And the fact that it's overlooking this stairwell

makes it even more odd.

It looks like a very large human hand,

and it's not like straight up either, it's sideways.

So whatever this creature was,

it could probably reach taller.

Believe it or not, it gets even weirder.

Five years later, the family repaints their entire house,

and...

The exact same print is still there,

even though it's had another coat of paint over top of it.

What really changed the whole tone of the story

was seeing the second clip shot five years later in 2019

after they tried to paint over that hand again.

Something like this where this handprint remains

despite additional coats of paint.

That, to me, says that this is something a little bit more staying,

a little bit more permanent.

This isn't just a brief "Hey, I'm here right now.

I'm reaching out." This is a "Hey, I'm here all the time.

This is my space too."

I don't see it ever going away,

unless someone like actually removed the...

that whole section and put a new one up,

I don't think it's going away.

Which, despite how bizarre it might sound,

is a more common occurrence than you think.

One of the most common manifestations of a human presence

that we see in paranormal activity is hands,

handprints, handprints showing up on glass,

on a mirrored surface, on a wall.

A handprint as a sign of a remnant of humanity

is an incredibly common traditional trope.

These are signs or indications

that there's somebody else in the room with you,

that there is another form in the spiritual

or astral form that can take this physical form

for a few moments and actually transfer a handprint.

I am immediately reminded of the Jim Thorpe prison in Pennsylvania.

They have a similar handprint on that wall,

which is said to belong to one of the Irish miners,

who are part of the Molly Maguires.

He was hanged in 1877

and yet that handprint remains.

So if that happened more than a century ago,

then this house might have a long road ahead

of being lent a hand.

Fortunately, there's nothing to suggest

that this particular handprint is a sign of bad things to come.

Energy is everywhere, and it's attached to everything,

individuals and inanimate objects and even locations.

There's nothing especially aggressive

or malevolent about this particular manifestation,

it much more is a communication of presence,

a sense of I'm here and whatever I am now,

I was once a person like you.

Which is why Lori-Lee is okay

with whatever is living with her family for now.

They accept the fact that it's going to be there

and we just kind of leave it alone.

There is no way anybody could have gotten that handprint there.

It's physically impossible.

Coming up, a man in Ohio...

...is tormented by an evil spirit.

I just felt like something was up there, almost like it was waiting for me.

Founded in 1717,

Freemasonry is one of the oldest secret societies on Earth,

and there are many who believe

that this secret society has been involved in some questionable activity,

from controlling world order

to dabbling in the dark arts of the occult.

And if you think these are just crazy conspiracy theories,

consider the case of one urban explorer in Ohio,

who stepped inside an abandoned Masonic temple

and witnessed paranormal activity that changed him...

...forever.

February 2021, Cleveland, Ohio.

The historic Miles Park Masonic Temple

has sat empty and rotting for nearly 40 years,

which is exactly why Christopher Hill

has come to explore it.

Hi, my name is Christopher Hill,

and this is my video.

I'm an urban explorer.

I explored the Masonic temple, because I heard rumors

that it might possibly be haunted.

But Christopher is also a skeptic,

which is why, despite the rumors,

he feels comfortable exploring it alone.

I explore alone, because I didn't believe

in the paranormal at first.

When I went inside, I was expecting to maybe find a person

like squatting inside.

Maybe, you know, a few rotting floors.

But it doesn't take long for his skepticism

to be put to the test.

Watch again.

As a chair rolls over on its own.

I was almost ready to leave the building

after I saw that chair move.

But I tried to stay calm because I'm there alone

and rationalized the situation,

so I entered the room after the chair moved,

assuming maybe it was wind or an animal

just darted past the chair.

So Christopher forges ahead

and things are relatively quiet,

until he gets to the fifth floor.

When I got to the top of the stairs,

I felt like something was up there,

something was almost like it was waiting on me.

So I checked the closet... there was a closet

leading to the right of the room that...

where the door was.

And no one was there, I was like all right, well,

pretty much time to end the exploration.

Checked outside, you know, just to show the area of Cleveland,

you know where the Masonic temple is

and right as I start to walk away...

Watch again in slow motion.

As Christopher just catches a door falling to the floor.

When it hit the ground, I mean, it felt like

the whole building shook.

It was it was terrifying.

A little freaked,

Christopher quickly exits the room,

but believe it or not, his inner skeptic

is still not convinced.

Knowing that it's an old building,

I decided to maybe chalk it up to, ah,

the building's fall apart, it's old,

so maybe the door just coincidentally fell.

I kind of hung out in the area in the hallway for a bit to

see if anything else happened.

And sure enough.

Another door moves.

This time, creaking open on its own hinges.

What the?

And that's when Chris' skepticism goes down for the count.

I just... I just knew I had to get out of there.

I was running down the stairs...

I just felt like I wasn't alone,

like I was being chased or watched.

There's a lot of stuff that's going on here,

we get sort of a poltergeist activity,

we know that the chair is moving

and that door just tips over

and we're watching these things happen,

so we can see that

there's no one else in the room.

There's nothing shaking the building.

There's nothing that's making this happen.

I can't help but wonder if what we're dealing with here

has a personal history to this temple

or perhaps it was drawn in.

Given that it's a Masonic temple,

either scenario is a possibility.

Masonic lore sort of revolves around a sense of mystery.

Many of these fraternal organizations operate as sort of secret societies,

and their rites and initiations

sometimes involve almost in a cult-like practice.

The secrecy surrounding the Freemasons is such

that they have been accused of all manner of occult activity

and even being behind such massive conspiracies as

controlling the British crown or rigging Oscar nights,

or even keeping Atlantis off the maps.

When you use ritual magic within any location,

you invite energies to become part of your realm.

I think that that's the reason why there's so much activity

within Masonic temples and lodges.

Which might explain how an entity came to be

in the building,

an entity that Christopher now absolutely believes in.

I feel like it was a spirit

trying to get my attention to either tell me to leave

or to be careful.

And this warning has affected him deeply.

My experience in the Masonic temple honestly

changed my life.

It really made me truly believe in the paranormal,

and I'm very leery of every building I enter now.

Coming up, is this tree in the Philippines...

...spouting holy water?

In Philippine folklore,

there is a story about the Bagobo,

who some believe were among the first humans

ever created.

According to legend, they came to be during a great drought

in the area.

Rivers were drying up.

The soil was turning to dust and plants everywhere

were starting to wither.

Except for one lone sugar cane stalk.

The Bagobo broke it open

and found a miraculous supply of water saving their lives.

Recently, a similar miracle

may have taken place in a small town in the Philippines.

But this time the holy water flows through the trunk

of an avocado tree.

February 2021, Santa Rosa, Philippines.

Residents in the subdivision of Lakeville

approach a bizarre sight.

An avocado tree is spouting water

from high up its trunk.

Baffled, they inspect the water main.

And a nearby roof for runoff.

But the flow of water

is not coming from either place.

It's coming from within the tree itself.

So what exactly is happening here?

This video is showing us one of those phenomena

that until you've seen it,

you really can't imagine how mind bending it is.

So we see an avocado tree, it looks tall,

it looks established, it's on what looks to be a fairly typical street,

and it has a steady stream of water.

There is no possible way that this thing could be

sucking water from the ground

and spitting it out of the tree.

We hear stories that date thousands of years back

about trees that have the ability to give life.

So seeing a tree spout water like this is very much reminiscent

of like the Tree of Life in the Kabbalah

or the Garden of Eden.

And so trees and miracles kind of go hand-in-hand,

because it's been a narrative that's been passed down

for thousands of years.

And indeed, many of the locals here

believe that what they're witnessing is a miracle.

And they quickly gather to collect and bathe themselves

in the sacred water.

Filipinos believe in spirits in everything.

There's spirits in the trees.

And we also leave behind our spirits.

And so maybe this water is actually coming

from some sort of elemental that's living in the tree.

There are actually a number of trees around the world

that regularly give forth water like this.

And in each place, there is a collection of explanations.

Some that verge toward the supernatural or the spiritual,

and some that lean more toward the natural or the scientific.

And as any folklorist can tell you,

there is no reason that both of those sets of explanations

cannot exist at the same time.

Whether odd scientific anomaly

or miraculous gift from beyond,

one thing's for sure, this remarkable trade

has brought life to a small town

and the people who reside there.

Maybe there is some form of fountain of youth,

and maybe it's here in the Philippines, after all

in a simple avocado tree.

What should you do in the event

you witness something paranormal?

Here are some tips to get it all on camera.

There is no way anybody could have gotten that

handprint there.

Never stop recording.

What the?

Even when you're scared.

Check your footage and then check it again.

Trust in the legend.

Oh, my God.
