Next on Paranormal Caught On Camera...

Investigators in a haunted house...

Bro, look at the chairs.

No way, bro.

...find activity around every corner.

Did I just move?

This wasn't just a gentle tip of the painting.

This painting was rattling.

A dog's spirit emerges... from its ashes.

The more I look at it, the more shocked and in disbelief I was

because it really does look like her.

A child in British Columbia...

Why do you think there's a girl dead?

...sees dead people.

- You see a girl? - Yeah.

He wasn't scared at all. He was just like, "Mom,

there's a dead girl in the tree.

Why can't you see her?"

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

You guys, we're seeing a UFO.

...to believe.

In upstate New York, there's a house known as the Sister Sister House.

And it's believed to be... extremely haunted.

According to locals, years ago, two sisters loved a house

that sat vacant in their neighborhood.

- They would keep an eye on it and try to protect it... -

...from vandals as if it were their own.

And although the sisters have since passed away,

many believe their spirits still hang around

inside the house they were so fond of.

Recently, the current owners invited three paranormal investigators over

to come see what they could gather.

Did they just move?

And by the looks of it, it seems the rumors are true.

Bro, look! Look at the chairs.

What, what? No way, bro.

April 2023.

Upstate New York.

We're in one of the most haunted houses in all of America.

James Montanez and his friends Yasko and Omar

are at the Sister Sister House

recording an introduction to their investigation.

So this house sat vacant,

but it was for a number of years

before somebody came through and renovated it

and brought it back to its original glory from the 1800s.

And even before Omar is able to get through it,

something reaches out via a spirit app.

As this house sat vacant...

- Knock. - Knock.

- I hear your knocks. - Mm-hmm.

Bro, no way.

My name is James, and this is my video.

- Knock. - Knock.

I hear your knocks.

Bro, no way.

I think a lot of people would be really terrified at this time, you know?

However, it kind of made me excited in a way

because I knew that we had something

that's unexplainable, that's interacting with us.

I love that the spirit box said it first

and then the knock happened.

- Knock. - Knock.

- I hear your knocks. - Mm-hmm.

Because that suggests some sort of prescience, some sort of foreshadowing.

And suddenly everything else that's spoken or said seems way more significant.

If that's the case, the team may want to pay extra attention

to the message that comes through next

as they are walking through the house.

Woah, what'd that say? "I'm scared"?

What did that say, bro?

"Should be scared".

- Should be scared. - Should be scared.

Why should we be scared, except for the obvious?

And sure enough, less than 30 seconds later...

Are you upstairs or down in the basement?

Can you give me a sign? Maybe a knock or something?

Let me know where you are.

Watch the picture closely.

Watch again...

As the picture on the wall begins to vibrate.

Did that just move?

I mean, the force to make a picture frame move like that...

You can't say an open window or an air vent could have caused that to happen.

I mean, that-- That was-- That was shocking to me.

That-- That was really, really crazy.

Did that just move?

The painting being moved,

it looked like it was about to fall off the wall.

It seemed to be shaked angrily.

There seemed to be some force and intent behind it.

From there, Omar and Yasko head upstairs.

- It's so cold up here. - It is.

It's like an instant change.

While James checks out one of the bedrooms.

What the hell was that?

When suddenly...

Woah! Did you freaking see that?

No freaking way.

Watch again.

What the hell was that?

As a shadow figure can be seen

moving across the mirror in the corner of the room.

The shadow in the mirror seems to be a person walking,

except it's not a flesh and blood person.

I mean, we can-- We can see through it.

It's transparent.

But it's-- It's dark and not a fully formed person.

Seeing whatever it was in that mirror

and then seeing the camera pan over to where it should have been...

Did you freaking see that?

...and seeing just an empty room

and panning back demonstrated to me

that whatever was in that mirror,

might not be present on our side.

Oh, this place is one of the most legit, insane places I've ever been.

Freaked out,

James meets up with Omar and Yasko,

and together they head to the basement to have a look around

where things get even more terrifying.

Bro, look! Look at the chairs. Look at the chairs!

What, what?

No way, bro.

Hanging chairs start swinging on their own.

It was just absolutely crazy.

Because it's almost as if something came through the room

and, like, swiped at all the chairs.

No way, bro.

Not only were they all moving,

but there was tons and tons of dust particles

as if somebody ran through the room.

We could be seeing what looks like a layered haunt.

You could have two paranormal phenomenas going on at the same time,

but they're not totally aware of each other.

- Knock. - Knock.

You'll have an intelligent haunt

that can interact with the investigators

and respond through EVP, knocking as well.

And then you have this poltergeist activity...

Did that just move?

...that just seems to interact with the objects around.

It doesn't really seem to be sentient at all,

but has the capability to move physical things.

Whatever category this haunting falls into at the Sister Sister House,

it's more than enough to send the team packing.

No, I can't do this, man.

Dude, let's-- Let's go. I'm done.

That's the moment when we were all like, you know what?

We've had enough.

It was time for us to go. We had to get out of there.

Luckily, James, Omar and Yasko get out of the house safely.

And even though their investigation was cut short,

James feels they gathered enough evidence

to prove that either the sisters

or perhaps some other spirits,

have staked their claim to the house.

You know, I've been to a lot of places, filmed a lot of stuff.

This is one of the most craziest ones that we had ever been to,

one of the most insane experiences we've ever had.

And honestly, I was happy to be leaving.

Woah! Did you just freaking see that?

Coming up,

A beloved dog materializes

through its ashes.

A casting ceremony is when a loved one's ashes are released into the world...

usually in a meaningful spot,

as a way of symbolizing their spirits passing on into the next life.

And while this is most often thought of as a way for those

who take part in the ceremony to say their final goodbye,

many believe it can also allow the spirit of the departed

to do the same.

Just ask one woman in California,

who spread her beloved dog's ashes at her favorite park...

And got a very clear message from her in return.

Late 2021 in Irvine, California.

Merry Christmas, Biscuit.

Go get 'em.

Natalie Larason has had her beloved dog Biscuit for 12 years,

considering her, as many with pets do,

a vital part of the family.

My name is Natalie, and this is my video.

Biscuit, the love of my life,

I adopted her from an animal shelter

when she was about one years old.

So Biscuit and I lived a lot of life together.

She was with me through thick and thin,

cross country moves, breakups,

in love with my husband, got married.

We moved into a house. We now have two kids.

Then one day, the unthinkable happens.

I was outside on the patio with my young kids playing,

and I opened the door. I came inside and...

She was laying in one of her favorite spots,

which is on the bottom of the stairs.

I took one look at her, and said, "Oh my God, Biscuit's gone."

So that was-- That was Biscuit's last day

which was different than I ever thought it would be.

You know, I always thought I'd have that--

That special goodbye, that final walk, that final meal.

Several months later,

long after Biscuit has been cremated,

Natalie decides she's finally ready

to say her last goodbye.

So my husband suggested, you know,

"How about we go to her favorite park?"

Which I had been wanting to go to,

but wasn't quite ready...

So that's what we decided to do that day.

As Natalie prepares to toss the ashes,

her husband records with his phone.

Watch very closely.

Did you see it?

Watch again.

As Natalie tosses the ashes into the air,

a shape emerges

that looks remarkably like Biscuit,

which neither of them notice until they watched the video later that night.

And Natalie is floored.

It was like a visceral reaction.

I couldn't even look at it again,

and for like a good minute, until I had composure.

You can see, you know, the ashes going up,

kind of like, snaps into her form and they fade away.

And that took my breath away.

The more I looked at it, the more shocked and in disbelief I was

because it really does look like her.

Not just a dog, but it looked like Biscuit.

This one got me.

I see the dog. It gave me chills.

It struck a nerve with me.

And I don't think that it was just

some random pattern of ashes in the air.

I think maybe it was a sign of Biscuit

saying hi to its loved ones.

If you look closely at the ashes,

you can see what looks like the outline of Biscuit.

And if you look even closer to the front legs,

you can see what looks like the legs are running.

The randomness of it all,

the statistical probability

of all those particles of matter arranging themselves

in just the right way to form that shape...

are astronomical.

But it happened and we saw it.

So is it a sign?

...that moment was...

Her way of saying, "Bye. I'm okay.

I have to go now."

And it just brings me comfort.

I gave my dog lots of hugs after seeing this video,

but the idea that just that last little message

of I'm still here, I'm still with you.

And I think the remains of a living being remembering its living form,

there's something really poignant about that

that this short video just captures perfectly.

Natalie couldn't agree more.

This moment did feel special.

I will never forget it for the rest of my life.

But it was important for me to be able to move on.

And when I share it with other animal lovers,

I feel that they are comforted as well.

Coming up...

What pushes this baby in Tennessee?

There are many theories

as to why some young children can sense paranormal activity...

...that adults cannot.

Perhaps spirits are drawn to them.

Or maybe we simply lose the willingness to see the paranormal...

...as we age.

But regardless of the reason,

it can be understandably concerning to parents,

especially when the children...

are very, very young.

You see a girl?

October 2022, Elizabethton, Tennessee.

Ashley Scott is at the supermarket

when her partner Chris sends her footage from their security camera

of what just happened to their one-year-old son Gavin

as Chris was sitting in a chair in their bedroom.

Watch the right side of the screen closely.

Watch again

as Gavin inexplicably falls forward,

as if shoved by an unseen force.

My name is Ashley, and this is my video.

When Chris had sent me the video,

I finished up what I was doing to come right back home.

And we were both like, this is just not normal.

It was obvious that something pushed him.

He even looks back in the video.

You know, like, something had done that.

It just made me think, you know, there's something

that we can't see that's going on here.

It's just unsettling.

When you slow the video down,

it looks as if the baby's knees come all the way off the ground

as it's pushed forward.

It's kind of a very unnatural motion

for a child to lurch forward like this

and to get air, so to speak.

What clinches this one for me is that the child's immediate reaction

is to turn around and look behind them.

And say, "Who did that? What was that? "

I mean, they would know if they had tripped.

What they seemed to know is that something pushed them.

Though they have no idea what or who it could have been,

Mom and Dad are just hoping it never happens again.

It's just scary, and I hope no one ever has to go through that

because you want to protect your children, you know.

Another parent in Canada can identify.

January 2020,

Prince George, British Columbia.

Ashley Leon Torres is parked in her car

when her toddler Elijah tells her that he can see something in a tree.

Okay. What were you telling me about the tree, honey?

What? The tree is dead?

Why do you think there's a girl dead?

My name is Ashley, and this is my video.

He just kept saying, "I see a girl in a tree."

And I was like, "There's nothing there."

And he's like, "Yeah, she's there. She's dead."

I was like, okay, this is getting weird.

Honey, there's nobody in the tree.

You can see somebody? -

Are you sure? I don't see anybody, honey.

You see a girl?

I don't think there's a dead girl in the tree, baby.

There's nothing in the tree.

I was trying to find anything that could look like a girl,

that he would be thinking was a girl.

But there was nothing that I could see.

Honey, there's nobody in the tree.

This one is creepy in the way that little children casually

saying super disturbing stuff is inherently creepy.

At first, it seems sort of benign.

Like, " Hey, look, there's a girl in that tree."

You see a girl?

And then he follows it up

by saying quite comfortably and frankly...

How would he know that?

I'm going to take a guess and say

that this child has not seen a large number of dead bodies.

So where does that knowledge come from?

He wasn't scared at all.

He was just like, "Mom, there was a dead girl in the tree.

Why can't you see her?"

Like, he was frustrated with me

that I wasn't seeing her.

So what is it about little ones like Elijah,

who claim to see something that adults cannot?

There is a thought in the paranormal field

that kids in particular are more sensitive to the supernatural

because they haven't been taught yet

to put up those barriers.

And you can almost t think about it

- like if you move to a new city. -

- When you first move there, you're going to hear... -

- ...and be aware of everything around you. -

Eventually, we learned to habituate those noises

because we have to get on with our day.

We can't constantly be distracted.

But kids haven't learned that yet.

So as they're growing up,

they're just kind of absorbing everything.

If that's the case, Ashley is looking forward

to Elijah growing out of this particular stage.

I've always believed that, like, kids and babies can see

more than we can.

But I don't know. He was two and a half.

I'm not just gonna be like, "Yeah, there's a dead girl over there."

It just seems like a really big burden to see dead people.

I just don't want that for him.

Coming up...

A bizarre object floats by...

You guys, we're seeing a UFO!

...in the California sky.

It looks like what you see on the documentaries.

When watching footage of UFOs

that others have captured on camera,

there are often times when their enthusiasm and wonder

practically reaches through the video.

Dude, what is this?

And shakes you.

What am I witnessing here?

But after seeing one's fair share of these moments...

Oh wow, it just changed angles.

It's got lit up. It's lit up! It's lit up!

Dude, what the

...it's possible the appreciation

of their real life impact might begin to fade.

Which is why it's good to remind ourselves

that when someone sees a UFO for the first time,

their entire perception of the way things are in this world

is completely turned on its head.

And their new life, for better or worse...

...starts from that point on.

Just ask two family members in California

who are still buzzing from the thrill of it.

What is it?

It's a UFO.

You guys, we're seeing a UFO!

January 2024, in Carlsbad, California,

Alicia Yantz and her nephew West are watching the sunset

from a rooftop along with some other family members

when something in the distance grabs their attention.

Jess. Look at my camera, Jess.

What is it?

It's a bulbous, metallic looking object

moving steadily across the sky.

It's a UFO. You guys, we're seeing a UFO.

And as it continues to soar past them...

Look at it in my camera.

It looks like what you see on the documentaries.

...Alicia and West are blown away.

- My name's Alicia. - And my name is West.

And this is our video.

I saw this, like, floating orb in the sky,

and I just yelled, "Everyone, look. There's a UFO!"

I didn't know what to call it.

No, it's not. Look at my camera, Jess.

The shape of the UFO was like a walnut.

It looked really weird.

And when I reviewed the video...

...which blowed me away.

What really kind of fascinates me about this clip is

when you first see this object in the sky

for the first several moments,

it seems to look a particular way.

Toward the middle all through the ending of the clip,

this object now, to me, looks very different.

It seems to have, like, a little mirage,

or like, kind of heat signature around it.

And as you keep looking at it,

it goes from being like an "O" shape

to kind of turning into, like, a diamond shape or oblong type shape.

It's flying closer to us.

It didn't have any sound to it at all, which was so weird.

It, like, blew our mind.

That's why we were calling it a UFO

because we couldn't hear a motor.

We couldn't see a motor.

It was just floating above the 5 freeway,

just like on the same plane.

Like, it never went up, never went down and just really smooth.

It didn't look like anything we had ever seen before.

Mary, look at it in my camera.

It looks like what you see on the documentaries.

You could probably blow this off

as some kind of a balloon caught in the wind, but it's not.

It has a direct propulsion line.

Something is moving this along,

and it's probably a lot larger

than it looks in this video camera.

And as bizarre as it is,

it's not the first time something like this

has made an appearance in this area.

What's really striking to me is that this looks

very similar to footage captured in March 2021,

in nearby Oceanside,

which was featured right here on this show.

Yeah.

I suspect there has to be parallels

between two clips captured in nearly the same spot

under very similar weather conditions.

I think that's too much of a coincidence to dismiss.

I get a lot of reports from Southern California

where you have a lot of naval ships,

bases, marine bases, all the presence that's there.

The theory is that if there's an intelligence

that wants to know what we're doing,

they might come check out the military activity.

This object, we could argue, might be

some sort of surveillance of some sort.

We don't know.

Wherever it's from,

and whatever its reason for being here,

it's left a lasting impression

on Alicia and West.

It was a shock. It was a once-in-a-lifetime thing.

It was crazy.

I definitely believe there's other life forms out there.

How they appear to us, I don't know.

Um, but I feel like what we saw

was something that was really amazing.

And we're just so happy that we saw it together. - Yeah.

It was such a cool experience to experience with our family.

It was the best thing that ever happened to us.

But it was really scary, too, at the same time. -

You guys, we're seeing a UFO.

Coming up...

Two friends in California...

...spot a ghost on a ride.

No one's on there.

In 1924,

the Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk,

debuted the Giant Dipper,

a wooden roller coaster

that still operates today...

...despite a tragic past.

Shortly after opening,

as the coaster went down its first dip,

a 15-year-old boy stood up, fell out of the ride

and was subsequently crushed on the tracks.

In the years since,

three others have also died on the ride.

And some park goers

claim to have seen one or more of their spirits in the area.

And while most believe the haunt is centered on the roller coaster,

two women on a recent late night stroll

think they captured one of the ghosts

taking its chances

on another ride.

No one's on there.

Is there?

Summer 2019, Santa Cruz, California,

it's almost midnight.

And Jalyn Rich and a friend

are walking by the Santa Cruz Boardwalk amusement park,

which is closed for the night...

when they noticed that one ride called the Double Shot

is still operating without any passengers on board.

Perplexed, Jalyn takes out her phone

and starts to record.

Okay. But the boardwalk closed, like, half an hour ago.

Watch very closely.

No one's on there.

Is there?

Did you see it?

Watch again. Zoomed in.

As the ride comes into view,

there seems to be a passenger

who gradually...

disappears.

And Jalyn and her friend, are totally freaked out.

My name is Jalyn, and this is my video.

It looked as if there was a human figure

sitting in one of the seats of the ride.

You could see shoulders.

You could see what looked like a head.

They were wearing some kind of sweatshirt,

and you could see almost a full outline

of what looked like a human body.

And as the ride progressively went down,

you can see it start to dissipate before your eyes.

I 100% think it was a ghost.

You can make out a face and a body.

It looks to me like it has some kind of cloak on it,

like draped in black,

kind of... kind of like the Grim Reaper.

If you look closely, this figure

really doesn't even look like it's sitting in the chair.

It looks like it's sort of behind it.

And as the ride is coming down,

that figure slowly sinks down behind the chair.

It's as if to say, "Uh-oh. They saw me. Time to disappear."

Even more bizarre for Jalyn

is the fact that the ghost is not visible

with the naked eye.

So we're both looking into the camera,

and that's when we both noticed

at the same time this figure.

But when we turned around, there was nothing there.

We turned back, you could still see it in the phone screen,

but we had both just turned our heads and looked at the physical ride

and there was absolutely nothing.

No one's on there.

Is there?

This is not uncommon.

Oftentimes paranormal activity

is captured on electronic devices

that we're not privy to with our given five senses.

It seems as if the electronic device

acts as a conduit where that makes these things

more perceivable to us,

And in this case,

it became perhaps a window

into some of the boardwalks'

darkest days.

So I grew up in the Bay Area,

going to the Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk.

The ghost stories that I know from growing up going there

were entirely focused

on the one big wooden roller coaster.

The first death, I believe

happened shortly after it was built.

And a young man stood up,

fell onto the tracks and died.

People who claimed to have sat next to him on the roller coaster,

operators of the rides seemed to have seen him

or interacted with him and been told later

that there wasn't actually anyone there.

At least four people have lost their lives

falling from the coaster and landing on the tracks below.

There's also accounts of people seeing spirits

both above the boardwalk and underneath in the tunnels.

So is this video evidence of one of those spirits still walking around

and I guess enjoying itself on the rides? I don't know.

But a lot of people believe this is a very paranormal active location.

And after her experience,

Jalyn considers herself one of the believers.

I have replayed that video over and over again.

I've zoomed in on it. I've played it frame by frame.

And the more that I revisit that

and just the feeling that I got once we noticed the figure on the ride

and it was just-- It's an indescribable experience,

and I have absolutely no doubt in my mind that,

um, the paranormal is 100% real.

Wait.

Coming up...

mysterious glowing orbs in China...

...spark fear of an alien attack.

When we think of encountering otherworldly life forms,

what might come most often to mind

are terrifying creatures of the night.

Or little green gray men...

disembarking from their ship.

But there are those who believe some otherworldly beings

have found a much more effective way

to blend in

by imitating a natural phenomenon

that is hard for most of us to grasp

in the first place.

That's what might have been happening one night in China,

when local residents witnessed a barrage of flying orbs...

so baffling they're still reeling

from the effects.

February 15th, 2024, in Deyang, China,

several onlookers in the street are taken aback

by a stunning sight in the night sky.

And one of them grabs their phone and starts recording.

It's a mass of glowing objects

that, though at first could be mistaken for a flock of some sort,

quickly takes on the characteristics

of something much more mysterious.

Are they lights, or are they creatures of some kind,

or are they all part of one creature?

People who witnessed this

are definitely acting as if it's nothing they've ever seen before,

so I don't get the feeling that this is necessarily

some indigenous form of wildlife species

that happens to do this on occasion.

This is really a bizarre manifestiation

of, I hesitate to even use the term nocturnal lights

because this is unlike any other sort of light in the sky UFO I've ever seen.

Although individually they appear small,

collectively, these things make up a very large phenomenon.

Now, a lot of times we're thinking about

visiting extraterrestrial life.

in the form of a massive mothership.

But what if we are visited by alien life

that is appearing in smaller crafts?

We think UFOs,

we instantly think of flying saucers,

but the number one type of craft

or objects that people are seeing are these orb-like objects.

Objects that collectively according to witnesses

stretch out to 1,600 feet in length.

And seem to cause genuine concern

among some of the people watching.

If I saw something, there was 1,600 feet,

moving slowly through the air,

I might as well as you might think

that this might be an alien attack.

Or perhaps less of an attack.

And as its next move seems to suggest

more of a conversation

of sorts.

That moment where they're just circling the moon,

it just seems to me that the movements of whatever

all these glowing items are in the sky,

they seem to be very symbolic.

Is it trying to communicate something?

Is it trying to convey something?

I'm not necessarily sure, but it doesn't seem to me

that anything naturally occurring in nature

would be having movements like that

and patterns like that.

And maybe its otherworldly traits

suggest something more mythological than extraterrestrials.

I read that some of the commentary from the local folks

who were looking at this were saying this is a dragon in the sky.

And I can see why dragons traditionally are understood

to be these incredibly beautiful

and awe-inspiring creatures,

and that this sort of undulating movement

that this cloud of lights gave us

would mimic the sort of serpentine body

of a traditional dragon moving across the sky.

We could be seeing one of the sources of dragon lore.

Whatever it is, it eventually fades away into the night sky.

And while the people who witnessed it

still don't have any definitive answers as to what it could be,

they might be looking a little more closely

the next time they come across a supposed natural phenomenon.

What would you do in the event you witnessed something paranormal?

No one's on there.

Here are some tips to get it all on camera.

You guys, we're seeing a UFO.

Check your footage. And then check it again.

Trust that what you're seeing really is otherworldly.

Don't be afraid...

- No way, bro. - ...to run for cover.

Dude, let's... Let's go! I'm done.

And if you do catch something...

...email us at submitparanormal@gmail.com.

Your footage could be seen right here

on Paranormal Caught on Camera.
