MOCEAN MELVIN
(VOICEOVER): Tonight,

on Beyond Skinwalker Ranch.

[suspenseful music]

PAUL BEBAN: This is a new
opportunity for us to figure out

what Bigelow was doing here.

EXPERT: This is like an entrance
to an underground vault.

This is completely unexpected.

We got to go down.

Dig.

PAUL BEBAN: Now, it's
gonna get interesting.

It's gonna snap back.

Yeah.

CARL ANDREASEN:
What in the hell?

[drone whizzing]

ROBERT LEONARD: Whoa.
- Whoa!

ROBERT LEONARD: God.

Oh, no!

JEFF MACBURNIE: This room here,
Mr. Bigelow had an encounter

with what he called a shaman.

Whoa!

What was that?

MOCEAN MELVIN
(VOICEOVER): For years,

scientists have been working
to reveal the secrets

of Skinwalker Ranch.

But is it possible
that the clues

to unlock the
mystery are located

beyond the borders of this
hub of high strangeness?

ANDY BUSTAMANTE: Wow.

MOCEAN MELVIN (VOICEOVER):
Now, an ex-CIA agent

and a veteran journalist
have been recruited

by the Skinwalker team to
go on a high-stakes mission

across America.

ANDY BUSTAMANTE: Look at all
this activity that's happening.

PAUL BEBAN: That's unbelievable.

ANDY BUSTAMANTE: That
is right over our heads.

That's it!
That's it right there!

MOCEAN MELVIN (VOICEOVER): The
goal-- uncover evidence that

may finally expose the truth.

ANDY BUSTAMANTE: How
is this happening?

PAUL BEBAN: Now, it's
gonna get interesting.

WITNESS 1: Look, it's moving!
WITNESS 2: Look at that.

Whoa!
WITNESS 1: Look at that!

[group exclaiming]

[theme music]

ANDY BUSTAMANTE: This
is just the beginning.

[tense music]

BRANDON FUGAL: Guys, one of
the hotspots you investigated

that yielded some
incredible results in phase

1 of the investigation was
Mount Wilson, which happened

to be owned by Robert Bigelow--

my predecessor here
at Skinwalker Ranch.

In fact, we all know that Robert
Bigelow, the elusive Las Vegas

billionaire and now
space entrepreneur,

owned both Skinwalker Ranch and
Mount Wilson at the same time.

I was frankly very surprised
by the incredible results

that you were able to get
in your initial exploration

of that property.

And I think of all the
properties, that is one that I

wanted to go back and revisit.

We couldn't agree more.

First of all, there's
fascinating history there,

you know, connection between
Mount Wilson and Skinwalker.

But we really got shut down.

I mean, we still had
a lot of work underway

when the weather just
slammed the door on it.

You had a blizzard hit
you, basically, right?

PAUL BEBAN: Absolutely.

MOCEAN MELVIN (VOICEOVER):
In their previous trip

to Mount Wilson Ranch, which
is located just 80 miles away

from Area 51, Andy and
Paul investigated reports

that Robert Bigelow and
his team of scientists

were investigating
an alien spacecraft

buried beneath the ranch.

ANDY BUSTAMANTE: So you have
Bigelow's researchers following

up with you because
they believe there might

be some sort of
alien craft buried

in a meadow on this property.

Apparently, down
in the meadow,

there's something
that emits a signal.

A lot of history in
the ground around here.

MOCEAN MELVIN
(VOICEOVER): Magnetometer

readings in the
Lower Meadow confirm

the presence of an unnatural
object below ground.

ANDY BUSTAMANTE: I am blown
away because Robert Bigelow was

digging here, trying to find
some sort of unexplainable

energy source under the ground.

And now, we actually
have evidence that

shows there is something there.

MOCEAN MELVIN (VOICEOVER):
Andy and Paul also investigated

two possible mine
entrances they believed

were openings to a tunnel system
leading to the Lower Meadow.

A survey revealed an
opening under the mines.

EXPERT: it's a huge
magnetic disturbance

that's typically going to
be indicative of a void.

MOCEAN MELVIN (VOICEOVER):
The team tried

to access the mine entrances.

Fire in the hole!

[explosion]

MOCEAN MELVIN
(VOICEOVER): But they

failed after a heavy
snowstorm stopped

them from going any further.

We come out here to our
two best opportunities

to get underground and we've
been able to get close,

but not close enough to get in.

From our first
investigation there, we

have a number of really
powerful data points

that give us an idea
of where we want

to focus on this next visit.

Are there any other
aspects that you're

planning on concentrating on?

ANDY BUSTAMANTE: We've actually
had a fortuitous series

of events recently that
make this the perfect time

to go back to Mount Wilson.

First, the ranch
owner, Jeff MacBurnie,

reached out to us to let us know
that crazy storm that forced us

off the ranch has actually
created what looks

like some sort of sinkhole
that may be an access

point to an underground network
of tunnels that we suspected

was there.

So this is something that
emerged after your visit there?

ANDY BUSTAMANTE: Yeah.

PAUL BEBAN: One thing that
Jeff, the owner, has told us,

there is evidence that this
was in use for some purpose.

TRAVIS TAYLOR: Really?

PAUL BEBAN: So
whether this is part

of some kind of further
underground structure

that Bigelow was working
on, we really have no idea.

Yeah, we're
excited to, kind of,

unearth what it is that the
Bigelow team found there

and what they may have
left behind when they left.

I'll wager it's worth
every minute of time

you're going to spend there.

And then some.

I'm pumped.

I love it.

There's definitely
some connection

between Mount Wilson
and Skinwalker Ranch

that we have yet to
fully understand.

[theme music]

[wind swishing]

ANDY BUSTAMANTE: I am
so excited to be going

back to Mount Wilson, man.

Yeah, and just look at
the difference between--

[chuckles] --when we-- when
we left in the winter and now.

ANDY BUSTAMANTE: I mean, we--
the last time we were here,

we were under 2, 2
and 1/2 feet of snow.

Yeah, this was complete--
and I don't know how much

more fell during that blizzard.

But I mean, it was
a complete whiteout.

We have an opportunity now
to go even deeper than we were

when we were here last time.

We have open soil, open ground.

We're really able to explore
what might be under the surface

here in Mount Wilson.

PAUL BEBAN: It's literally a new
opening for our investigation.

I can't wait to see what
this site actually is.

ANDY BUSTAMANTE: Right.

PAUL BEBAN: Bottom line is,
this is a new opportunity for us

to figure out, maybe, more
about what Bigelow was

doing here for 10 years, right?

ANDY BUSTAMANTE: As soon
as we hit the ground,

I think we should
really take off running.

PAUL BEBAN: Yeah.

ANDY BUSTAMANTE: We'll see
if Mount Wilson has something

more to show us this trip.

MOCEAN MELVIN (VOICEOVER):
Andy and Paul's first plan

of attack is to meet with Mount
Wilson Researcher Carl Andreasen

and Ranch Owner Jeff
MacBurnie to investigate

the new collapsed area.

- How's it going?
- Hey, guys.

Welcome back.

How are you doing?

Good to be back.

Hey, Jeff.

How are you, Carl?
- Hey, gents.

- How you been?
- Good to see you.

We have a ton
to show you guys.

Yeah.

Last time, we were
pushing you guys out of snow

and dealing with all that.

But what we thought was
maybe pushing us off

the mountain was really maybe
showing us the real way, so.

The melt-off
this year has been

the most we've ever experienced
here at the mountain.

[eerie music]

CARL ANDREASEN: Yeah,
basically all of that

snowpack that we had, the
blizzard that pushed us off

from the mines that we were
trying to get access to

in the winter time,
when that melted off

was showing us probably
the real tunnel

that we should have been
looking for this whole time,

which is literally right here.

This is it.
I mean, look--

PAUL BEBAN: This is it.

CARL ANDREASEN: This
entire giant sinkhole

with everything that you
see, it's like 40 feet wide,

60 feet long.

And we got Jerry up here
taking a look at it.

Hey, Jerry.
JERRY PANKOW: Oh.

CARL ANDREASEN: How you been?
- Good.

CARL ANDREASEN: We brought our
friends, Andy and Paul here,

to take a look at this hole.
- Hey, Jerry.

So you're taking a look
at the-- whatever this is?

Yeah, they called
me and asked me

to come over here
and see if this was

some sort of mining activity.

OK.

And, I'll have to tell you,
it doesn't look like any mining

activity I've seen.

This is like an entrance
to an underground vault,

or a tunnel, or cave system.

ANDY BUSTAMANTE: What
makes you say that?

What do you see here
that leads you--

It's too big.

It's just way too big.

This is-- this is big
enough to put a vehicle in.

[metal squeaking]

PAUL BEBAN: OK.

This is a low
ground pressure mat.

The military uses
them when they--

you know, they bring their
rubber-tire vehicles onto

a soft beach, a beach landing.

There's no reason for this to be
out in the middle of the desert

in remote Nevada
because we don't have

any soft ground around here.

But when you go below
the water table here,

you're gonna find really
wet, mushy ground.

And so they were
driving trucks in and out

and had to have
these mats so they

didn't get stuck in the mud?

Right.

Definitely some
rubber-tire vehicles

and able to drive
under ground here.

ANDY BUSTAMANTE: I see
a-- is this a chain drive?

JERRY PANKOW: Yeah.

ANDY BUSTAMANTE: This is huge.

JERRY PANKOW: Yeah.

Now, I am gonna guess
this was a gate,

a motorized heavy gate to
let a vehicle pass in here.

CARL ANDREASEN: Like a door?

This was a giant sliding door?

JERRY PANKOW: A giant
sliding door or gate.

We've got this, what is--
what's clearly, you know,

a hidden entrance to something.

I think what it also suggests
is that maybe there's just

a lot more infrastructure
here that we

have no idea about at all.

ANDY BUSTAMANTE: Paul, this
is unlike anything we've

seen in our investigations.

And it's really
important to me that we

understand what is under here.

We need the Terra
Exploration Group.

PAUL BEBAN: Yeah.
Yeah.

That's a good idea.

MOCEAN MELVIN (VOICEOVER): In
their previous investigation

at Mount Wilson,
geophysical experts

from Terra Exploration
Group identified

several underground
targets for the team.

PAUL BEBAN: What the
Terra guys can do

is just see underground for us.

Right.

PAUL BEBAN: I mean, we
have no idea really where

to begin aside from right here.

This could go in any direction.

This is a hell of a
starting place, man.

Oh, it's incredible.

This is awesome.

CARL ANDREASEN: This
is just the beginning.

We have a lot more to do.

[dramatic music]

MAN: Hey, guys.

Hey, fellas.

What's going on?

Good to see you.

Welcome back.
MAN: How's it going?

PAUL BEBAN: Good.

BRANDON FUGAL (VOICEOVER):
With the breakthrough discovery

of a collapsed area that
could provide the missing link

to the secret of
the Lower Meadow,

Andy and Paul have brought
back Terra Exploration Group

with their underground
surveying technology

to search for any
connecting tunnels or voids

and pinpoint a spot to dig.

We brought a bunch more toys.

Excellent.

Well, I think we're gonna
need them for this one.

BRANDON FUGAL (VOICEOVER): In
2020, the Skinwalker Ranch team

used a magnetometer drone that
identified something hidden

below ground next to the mesa.

ERIK BARD: It's
telling us there's

something going
on in the ground,

particularly there at
the homestead area.

ROBERT LEONARD: I
mean, it's clearly

a magnetic anomaly there.

BRANDON FUGAL
(VOICEOVER): In Andy

and Paul's first
investigation at Mount Wilson,

the Terra team
launched a magnetometer

drone in the upper part of
the ranch that crashed--

It's bouncing
all over the place.

[men groaning]

PAUL BEBAN: What just happened?

ANDY BUSTAMANTE: Oof.

BRANDON FUGAL
(VOICEOVER): --requiring

them to walk the
magnetometer by hand

to collect the rest
of the data, which

showed evidence
of a tunnel system

leading to the Lower Meadow.

Now, the Terra team will
use the same technology

to see if they can
identify any openings

beneath the new collapsed area.

ROBERT LEONARD: Should
we go take a look?

PAUL BEBAN: Yeah, we'd
love to show you the site.

Yeah.

All right.

PAUL BEBAN: And this whole
area collapsed in on itself.

ROBERT LEONARD: Yep.

PAUL BEBAN: What we
can see here, right,

this is maybe some
kind of entrance

to an underground
vault. We have no idea.

ROBERT LEONARD: It
looks like a track.

Like, a train track where
you have a-- you know,

you pull a rail cart out.
PAUL BEBAN: Yeah.

ROBERT LEONARD: What we can do
is throw some technology at it

and see what we see.

And then that can kind of give
us maybe a direction to dig.

Perfect.

That's the idea.

Well, let's get to work.

Ooh, that's high speed.

Look at that.

Bigger, stronger,
faster, better.

I like it.

BRANDON FUGAL (VOICEOVER):
Terra's drone flies

in a preprogrammed
grid pattern using

GPS coordinates for navigation.

The attached magnetometer
will take magnetic readings

with hopes of revealing a tunnel
underneath the Collapsed Area.

If the team can find
an underground pathway,

it may lead them to
the buried craft Robert

Bigelow was searching for.

We got a new drone because
we killed ours last time.

This one's actually
shielded, so it should

be more stable this time.

Hopefully, it comes back.

[chuckles]

Yeah, hopefully it
lands in one piece.

[drone whirring]

PAUL BEBAN: So far, so good.

ROBERT LEONARD: Yep.

PAUL BEBAN: There she goes.

ROBERT LEONARD: Well, this
one's flying a lot better.

ANDY BUSTAMANTE: A
good, clean flight.

ROBERT LEONARD: Yeah.

ANDY BUSTAMANTE: And I really
like the large footprint

that you programmed because
it gives us a chance

to see if there's any
sort of directionality

to whatever anomaly we
may find under there.

ROBERT LEONARD: Right.

PAUL BEBAN: Yeah, whatever
this entrance connects to,

we have no idea what
direction, or what orientation,

or how big it is.

ROBERT LEONARD: Let's come home.

Perfect.

Look, hit the only pothole.

PAUL BEBAN: Almost perfect.

ANDY BUSTAMANTE:
Well, good job, guys.

ROBERT LEONARD: All right.

ANDY BUSTAMANTE: Now, you
got some work ahead of you

to process data?
ROBERT LEONARD: Yes, we do.

We'll be able to compare and
contrast information and come up

with a solid set of
where we want to target

and how we want to proceed.

Yeah, all right.

Got it.

Let's do it.

BRANDON FUGAL (VOICEOVER): Since
it will take the Terra team

into the late evening to
process their magnetometer data,

the plan is to regroup in the
morning to see the results.

But before Andy and
Paul call it a night

in Room 3 of Mount
Wilson's guest house,

Jeff and Carl have some
important information

to share with them.

[knocking]

Hey, guys.
What's up?

- Hey.
- Come on in.

Can we come in?

We're just-- we're just
messing with some gear.

CARL ANDREASEN: Nice.

I kind of felt like we
should make you aware.

Yeah, this room here,
basically, last time you asked,

why would Mr. Bigelow have
sold this place to me?

This room here, Mr.
Bigelow had an encounter

with what he called a shaman.

PAUL BEBAN: In this room?

JEFF MACBURNIE: In this room.

CARL ANDREASEN: While he was
sleeping, like, in this bed.

In this bed?

CARL ANDREASEN: Woke up in
the middle of the night.

And he said the
figure was so tall

that it was stooping up with its
head below the ceiling and it--

what it tell him?

Leave.

CARL ANDREASEN: Pointed right
at him and told him to leave.

That was the message.

And we even talked to a guy from
the phone company that was here

the next day when he woke up,
heard it first-hand from him

and said that Bigelow
was freaking out,

that he had saw this
apparition appeared

to him right here in this room.

PAUL BEBAN: It sounds
like this isn't

like someone sensing a presence
or feeling like something

is there.

This is something
that's visible.

We can set up cameras to-- you
know, if anything does happen,

we'll capture it.

Yeah, we're not
leaving, for sure.

Right, no.
Yeah, we're not going anywhere.

I mean, this is-- this is wild.

ANDY BUSTAMANTE:
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

PAUL BEBAN: Carl
and Jeff were just

kind of giving us, sort of, a
friendly heads up, like, look,

this is the story of this place.

And I always take,
especially these the idea

of the paranormal stuff
with a grain of salt.

But of all the
places we've been,

this place may have
the darkest and most

disturbing, and frankly,
some of the most

bizarre stories we've heard.

But you've got to come
with an open mind.

I thought this was all just
gonna be for outdoor use.

BRANDON FUGAL (VOICEOVER): Andy,
Paul and the production team

set up multiple
cameras in their room

to attempt to record what
supposedly spooked Robert

Bigelow, including a new,
highly sensitive FLIR HD

Thermal Camera
designed to capture

heat signatures from objects.

PAUL BEBAN: Hey, Andy?
- Yeah, man?

PAUL BEBAN: Come check this out.

[tense music]

Look at that.

What is that?

What is that in the corner?

Whoa!

What was that?

- Was that recorded?
- Did you see that?

No!

I absolutely saw it.

I just turned it on.

[tense music]

PAUL BEBAN: Hey, Andy?
ANDY BUSTAMANTE: Yeah, man?

PAUL BEBAN: Come check this out.

Look at that.

What is that?

What is that in the corner?

Whoa!

What was that?

ANDY BUSTAMANTE:
Was that recorded?

PAUL BEBAN: Did you see that?
No!

- I absolutely saw it.
- I just turned it on.

[chuckles]

That was a dude in the corner.

That was a dude in the corner.

But then it's gone.

ANDY BUSTAMANTE: It's gone!
That wasn't saved?

Nope, not (bleep) at all.
Nope.

I just turned it on.

I just turned it on.

Before we even press record on
half the equipment down here,

I thought the shaman, we'd
never get any evidence.

But then, sure enough, as
soon as we turned on the FLIR,

we get some kind
of weird shadow.

Like, is that the shaman?

Oh, my god.
- Crazy.

Dude, go back over there.

- You go over there.
- OK.

OK, roll it.
Roll it.

All right, we're
gonna roll it.

Oh, there we go.

It's live.

OK.

So you were over here.

Blah, blah, blah, right?

Right.

I think you were
messing with the camera.

ANDY BUSTAMANTE: OK.

And--

I left.

It's-- I'm-- It's
as-- you were--

I was focusing on.
ANDY BUSTAMANTE: I see you, yup.

And you're hot as
the day is long.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Right.

And then you came over here.

And when you were over here,
there was a dude in the corner.

So what's crazy is--

PAUL BEBAN: 100%.

--the signature that was
there didn't have heat.

But you had heat when
you were there right now.

Right Did you-- so you saw it
the second before it went away?

ANDY BUSTAMANTE: I
absolutely saw it.

I saw it right before
it-- and then it reset

and the image went away.

It was gone.

That was so wild.

[laughs]

Did Lee-- did you get that?

[groans] Man, I
hope Lee got that.

ANDY BUSTAMANTE:
Oh, man, could you

imagine if we're five
minutes into this room

and we already have that?
CREW: [laughs]

PRODUCER: Oh, my god, I
hope this is on camera.

Come on, Lee.
Come on, Lee.

CAMERA OPERATOR: Here we go.
- That's it!

That's it!
That's it right there!

Now, keep watching.

Keep watching.

PAUL BEBAN: That's totally
[bleep] right there.

ANDY BUSTAMANTE: Look at that.
Look at that.

Lee, you have it.

Oh, my gosh, Lee, you have it.

PAUL BEBAN: And there it is!

Andy walks away and
it's right there.

ANDY BUSTAMANTE:
It's right behind me!

PAUL BEBAN: It's right there.

Oh, look at that, right there.

ANDY BUSTAMANTE: Yes,
it's right there.

PAUL BEBAN: Yeah, you
can [bleep] see it.

Oh, and then Andy blocks it.

[men laughing]

You totally have it, Lee!

PAUL BEBAN: But then it's gone.

ANDY BUSTAMANTE: And yes, just
as soon as my hand clears,

it's gone.

[men laughing]

Awesome.

PAUL BEBAN: Check
this [bleep] out.

ANDY BUSTAMANTE: I
just saw something

that you shouldn't see.

Right?

Here's Andy.

What's that behind
him in the corner?

There's someone standing
in the corner of the room.

There is someone
stand-- exactly.

There's someone
standing in the corner.

I'm like--

CARL ANDREASEN: There's
a person standing.

PAUL BEBAN: And I'm like, huh?
Wait, watch.

ANDY BUSTAMANTE:
Keep watching, guys.

Watch.

Your hands are in the way.
PAUL BEBAN: Oh, my god.

But watch.
CARL ANDREASEN: Move your hand.

JEFF MACBURNIE: He's
saying move his-- move--

PAUL BEBAN: I heard.
Gone.

What?

PAUL BEBAN: Gone.

Weird.

Something is weird
in that corner.

I've seen a lot of things
doing this kind of work.

But I've never seen
anything remotely like that.

Like, there was a
moment where I was like,

hey, Andy, because I'm
about to lose my mind here.

There's something in the
corner right behind you.

I don't even know what to say.

I'm kind of at a loss for
words, which is not like me.

There was-- there was
something in that corner.

I don't know what
it was, period.

I want to see what the
Skinwalker team makes of this.

Absolutely.

BRANDON FUGAL (VOICEOVER):
After encountering what appeared

to be the entity that reportedly
drove Robert Bigelow from Mount

Wilson, Andy and Paul
call an urgent meeting

with the Skinwalker
team to analyze what was

captured on the thermal camera.

BRANDON FUGAL: Greetings
from Skinwalker Ranch.

Paul, Andy, anxious to hear what
is happening at Mount Wilson.

ANDY BUSTAMANTE: Well, I
want to say we've had a hell

of a start to this place.

One of the things that
ended up happening to Paul

and when we arrived
is that we were

given a room that was assigned
to us by Jeff, the ranch owner.

And Jeff came in
and told us later on

that the room actually
had a specific history

tied back to Bigelow.

PAUL BEBAN: This room is
where Bigelow had been

staying while he was there.

There's no other way to put
it but that it was haunted.

And we want to share that with
you because we think we may have

captured some really
interesting, measurable evidence

that speaks to the
phenomenon that may have

gotten Bigelow off that ranch.

Am I to understand
that you actually

took instrumented
measurements in the room

where Mr. Bigelow had
those experiences?

PAUL BEBAN: That's
exactly right.

I can't wait to see it.

Yeah, I'm on the
edge of my seat here.

PAUL BEBAN (ON RECORDING): Whoa!

ANDY BUSTAMANTE (ON
RECORDING): Was that recorded?

PAUL BEBAN (ON RECORDING):
Did you see that?

No!

ANDY BUSTAMANTE (ON RECORDING):
I absolutely saw that.

PAUL BEBAN (ON RECORDING):
I just turned it on!

ANDY BUSTAMANTE (ON
RECORDING): What is that?

PAUL BEBAN (ON RECORDING):
What is that in the corner?

TRAVIS TAYLOR: Wait a minute.

ANDY BUSTAMANTE (ON RECORDING):
That was a dude in the corner!

PAUL BEBAN (ON RECORDING):
That was a dude in the corner.

TRAVIS TAYLOR:
Wait, I saw somebody

walk in front of the camera.

BRANDON FUGAL: No, it
was right in the back.

It was like a hooded figure.

ANDY BUSTAMANTE: Right, you can
see there's the purple stripe

is the cool corner of the room.

TRAVIS TAYLOR: OK.

PAUL BEBAN: When we roll it
back, now look at that corner.

That's from just
a moment before.

Can you frame
advance very slowly?

ANDY BUSTAMANTE: Absolutely.

Now, here I step in front of
the camera until a later moment.

TRAVIS TAYLOR: It's gone there.

ANDY BUSTAMANTE: There's
a very important frame

that I think will help
shed some light on this.

So you're about to see my image
pop up on the thermal camera.

And I'll appear in
front of whatever

that entity, whatever
that image is.

TRAVIS TAYLOR:
That's interesting.

ERIK BARD: OK.

TRAVIS TAYLOR: OK. right there.
- There.

TRAVIS TAYLOR: Stop.

ERIK BARD: There's a
dark feature that we

saw in the initial image.

TRAVIS TAYLOR: I still see the--

the hands, and the face,
and the body shape.

Is that not weird?

Now, it's starting to get
a little more obscured.

ERIK BARD: Well, the
persistence of that dark area

says a lot to me.
TRAVIS TAYLOR: Yeah.

ERIK BARD: You know,
as I said, it's--

yeah, there it is again.

OK.

Ah, goodness.

BRANDON FUGAL: It obviously
looks like some spectral figure,

which is similar to what we've
seen, observed and documented

here at Skinwalker Ranch.

BRANDON FUGAL
(VOICEOVER): In 2022,

a member of Robert
Bigelow's investigative team

returned to Skinwalker
Ranch and recalled

an incident where he saw an
apparition at Homestead 2.

WITNESS: As we walk
closer to Homestead 2,

we felt a drastic
drop in temperature.

[eerie music]

You could put your
arm through it.

And you could feel the
cold versus the heat.

On the second floor
of Homestead 2,

through the night vision
device, we saw what resembled

a dark, shadowy figure.

PAUL BEBAN: And here's one
of the things, a detail

that really struck me, right?

Was whenever--
whenever one of us,

whenever a person passes in
front of the screen, what's

the hottest thing you see?

It's their face.

Your face is bright yellow,
you know, the hottest

ends of the spectrum.

Whatever this face is, is black.

It is cold.

The part that's undeniable is
that you have an image in a FLIR

of a cold object that looks
very humanoid in shape

that just appeared
there for a few seconds.

This is unique because we have
a very distinct image captured

with a very sophisticated
piece of equipment,

with witnesses participating in
observing all of this play out.

What an extraordinary event
to be captured on camera.

And I can only imagine what
will be further discovered

as we dedicate the resources.

All right, gentlemen,
thank you very much.

And we'll see you soon.
- All right, guys.

Thank you, gentlemen.

Nice talking to you.

BRANDON FUGAL: Thank you
so much for your efforts.

ANDY BUSTAMANTE: We got to
go meet up with the Leonards.

PAUL BEBAN: Let's do it.

BRANDON FUGAL (VOICEOVER):
The recent discovery

of a collapsed area above
the Lower Meadow led the team

to order a magnetometer survey
looking for evidence of tunnels.

Now, they meet up with
Terra Exploration Group

to review the results.

All right, fellas.

Well, so I got--

got some cool stuff.

We got all the data crunched.

There is some
interesting findings.

There is weird stuff
going on out here.

The mag data is
gonna blow you away.

This is the magnetometer.

When we use a
magnetometer, we're reading

the Earth's magnetic field.

This is not a topo map.

This is just a representation
of the magnetic field strength.

ANDY BUSTAMANTE: Yeah.

ROBERT LEONARD:
All that black area

there is our collapsed area.

ANDY BUSTAMANTE:
The dark colors?

ROBERT LEONARD: Uh-huh, yeah.

Typically, that kind of
a color indicates a void

or a very loosely-packed soil.

The dark blues and the
blacks like the low magnetism

because it's air.

PAUL BEBAN: Wow.

ROBERT LEONARD: And I'm
seeing some lines in here

that kind of intrigue me.

I see three in there-- one
there, one there, one there.

PAUL BEBAN: Oh, whoa.

CARL ANDREASEN: It
looks totally straight.

Like, unnaturally straight.

ROBERT LEONARD: Yeah.

You don't get a lot of
straight lines in nature.

Yeah.

ROBERT LEONARD: So we want to
look at the satellite image.

There's our collapsed area.

And we overlaid this.

ANDY BUSTAMANTE: Oh, whoa.

PAUL BEBAN: Oh.

CARL ANDREASEN: Wow, that
could be the tunnel entrance

that we're looking for.

It would be consistent
with a tunnel.

Wow.

ROBERT LEONARD: And here's
the most intriguing thing.

These-- there's one there.

And here's this one over here.

Boom.

Wow.

Do you think there's a
possibility that continues

all the way down under there?

ROBERT LEONARD: Yeah.

Right under the meadow.

ROBERT LEONARD: Right
under the meadow.

CARL ANDREASEN: Exactly.

ANDY BUSTAMANTE: It
lines up perfectly.

There's enough data
here that we've also

been able to connect the tunnel
area with the Lower Meadow

with some kind of void
that might connect the two.

Correct.

Right there is the
opening all the way down

to the Lower Meadow.
BOB LEONARD: There could be.

ROBERT LEONARD: So there's
maybe a little bit of an answer

to a big question there.

Maybe this was built to
access under the meadow?

Is it the spaceship
under the ground?

You know, it's just--

Bizarre.

It is bizarre.

PAUL BEBAN: And now
that we're looking

at what may be a
tunnel that leads all

the way to the Lower Meadow.

If they're all the way
up at this entrance,

would there be a purpose
to tunnel all the way down

to the Lower Meadow?

I mean, you can access the Lower
Meadow from the Lower Meadow.

JEFF MACBURNIE: Right, true.

But if you-- if you're wanting
to pull something out of there,

a UFO, you need-- you
need a way to get it out.

You need a track.

CARL ANDREASEN: And Bigelow
did try in the meadow

and got stuck up to the seat,
you know, with their bulldozer.

Because of the
softness of that.

BRANDON FUGAL (VOICEOVER): The
Lower Meadow is a marshy area

located next to a creek.

And when Bigelow's team tried
to dig there with a bulldozer,

it sank all the way up
to the driver's seat.

Later, he brought the same
bulldozer to Skinwalker Ranch.

This is intentional
infrastructure

built by human beings.

And the fastest way to get
underground in the Lower Meadow

would be through a tunnel that
starts in the Collapsed Area.

CARL ANDREASEN: That might
be what Bigelow's team was

following and what made
them ultimately leave

and give up, too.

How can we home
in on that a bit?

Is that possible?

Dig.

We got to go down.

PAUL BEBAN: Right.

If there are those
tunnels going down,

if we can gain access into
those tunnels, get into there.

Now, Robert, I
know you were saying

earlier that you guys find the
anomalies, but you don't dig.

So we'll get to digging and
we'll give you a new target

to explore in the Lower Meadow.

Awesome, let's go.

BRANDON FUGAL (VOICEOVER):
With newfound information

of a possible tunnel
system connecting

the Collapsed Area
to the Lower Meadow,

and an alleged
buried spacecraft.

The team sets out to
excavate and hopefully

reveal what Robert Bigelow was
doing at Mount Wilson Ranch.

ANDY BUSTAMANTE: Let's do it.

PAUL BEBAN: We know we've
got steel down there.

We know we've got potential
risk of further collapse.

I mean, this is a huge
40- by 60-foot site and we

have no idea what's in there.

So to see that excavator
actually do this,

this is what we're here for.

Now, it's gonna get interesting.

Even if this is a tunnel
going in that direction,

there is some kind of void here.

I mean, something has collapsed.

Absolutely.

Look at all that.

What is going on, man?

This is mind-blowing
right now.

This so crazy, Jeff.

[metal clanging]

[boom]

Oh.

PAUL BEBAN: Well,
that sounded hollow.

JEFF MACBURNIE: Wow.

PAUL BEBAN: Just amazed
that this is all covered.

This took some work to cover.

It took some real
work to cover this up.

CARL ANDREASEN: There's a lot
more here than I thought, man.

This is crazy.

PAUL BEBAN: It seems like every
time Jerry puts the bucket

into the ground, we are
pulling out some kind

of mysterious piece of debris.

Like, why is there so
much metal in here?

CARL ANDREASEN: There it is.
There it is.

There it is.

There it is.

Watch out.

Throw it over here, is four--

ANDY BUSTAMANTE: Wow,
that's farm equipment.

Farm equipment?

What the hell, Jeff?

Farm equipment?

It's a giant combine thing.

JEFF MACBURNIE:
What in the hell?

CARL ANDREASEN: Wow.

JEFF MACBURNIE: Well,
that's hooked to something.

CARL ANDREASEN: Watch this
piece of military rig.

Oh, my god.

What is this?

What is that?

JEFF MACBURNIE: What [bleep]!

CARL ANDREASEN: That's
like a big steam engine.

I think there's a
whole truck down there.

That is the
undercarriage of a truck.

PAUL BEBAN: This really is
like an archaeological dig.

We're just pulling all these
mostly metal artifacts out

of the ground, like
these traction mats

for maybe very heavy
trucks to drive in

and out of some kind of site.

CARL ANDREASEN: Whoa, look out.

ANDY BUSTAMANTE: Jeez.

Two for one.

More and more mats.

A stack of them.

There's more coming.

It's gonna snap back.

Yeah, watch out.

More railing.

Like, they just threw
railing in here.

Look at that.
JEFF MACBURNIE: Oh, my goodness.

CARL ANDREASEN: Holy crap, Jeff.

PAUL BEBAN: We've
got all this debris

that looks like it was just
shoved into a hole in a hurry.

CARL ANDREASEN:
There's the engine.

The whole motor.

CARL ANDREASEN:
The engine block.

Whatever was going on
here, they definitely

abandoned it and covered it up.

It's another one.

ANDY BUSTAMANTE: That's
a second vehicle.

CARL ANDREASEN: It's
another vehicle.

PAUL BEBAN: Why would you
take all the time and energy

to bury all this stuff?

Holy [bleep].

Look out.

[windows rattling]

Hey, guys?

Carl and Jeff, step back.

A piece of metal
comes out of there,

it's gonna come out of
there like a tomahawk.

And remember,
this is all a void.

[metal clunks]

CARL ANDREASEN: Oh, my god!
PAUL BEBAN: Look at that.

ANDY BUSTAMANTE: See,
that crack just opened up?

Yep.
ANDY BUSTAMANTE: Oh, yeah.

PAUL BEBAN: A big crack.

Yeah, you can see
there's a void underneath.

CARL ANDREASEN: This almost
looks like an entrance or--

JEFF MACBURNIE:
Careful there, bud.

Look at that.

What the hell is that, Andy?

[engine humming]

PAUL BEBAN: A big crack.

ANDY BUSTAMANTE: Look at that.

PAUL BEBAN: What the
hell is that, Andy?

BRANDON FUGAL (VOICEOVER): As
the team continues to excavate

at the Collapsed
Area, they uncover

what seems to be an
opening, as predicted

by the magnetometer survey.

He's all through here.

I mean, look
underneath here, Paul.

I know, right?

I mean, there's-- you know.

I'm just trying to see if
our void continues here.

I mean, this is--
whatever this beam is, it

goes deep into this hillside.

It just keeps going back there.

There's more buried
metal and equipment.

But why would they
have collapsed it all?

Why would you bury
all this stuff?

This is like it's hidden, right?

Why would you do this?

Unless all of this equipment
was scattered around this area.

And when they bulldozed
in to close this up,

they just pushed the
equipment right in with it.

Yeah.

And I got to go meet
up with the Leonards,

take a look at
that Lower Meadow.

OK, perfect.
We'll just keep working here.

Sounds perfect.

BRANDON FUGAL (VOICEOVER): With
the rest of the team focused

on the dig at the
Collapsed Area,

Andy heads down to
the Lower Meadow

to meet with Terra
Exploration Group.

Welcome back to
the Lower Meadow.

Yes, sir.

BOB LEONARD: Oh, boy.

So we're really
hoping to dig deeper.

OK.

We've got whatever
seems to exist under here.

Travis believes this might be
some sort of advanced tech.

If we can confirm some of
the same magnetometer results

as last time, I see
that as a positive.

But if we can really get down
and get a closer, more detailed

view, that's even better.

All right.

BRANDON FUGAL
(VOICEOVER): The last time

they ran the magnetometer in
the Lower Meadow, the team

picked up a mysterious
interference

signal that obscured the data.

So it's like,
it's an even pulse.

I mean, look how
evenly apart they are.

There's something
that's just stopping it.

Like, the mag is
turning on and off.

BRANDON FUGAL (VOICEOVER): When
Travis reviewed the results,

he theorized it could be some
kind of advanced technology

that's sending signals from
beneath the earth into space.

If Bigelow would have found
that, he would have stayed.

BRANDON FUGAL
(VOICEOVER): Now, they

will try again with a new
drone, with hopes of identifying

what could be buried here.

- You ready?
- Let's do it.

- All right.
- Let's launch.

[drone whirring]

Whoa!

Whoa, god!

ANDY BUSTAMANTE: Oh, no.

ROBERT LEONARD: What was that?

What happened there?

No forewarning or anything.

Well.

That thing just
totally shut down.

What just happened here?

I just watched a modern-day,
insulated, shielded drone

take off and then just
shut off in midair.

Well, the other day when
we did that other grid,

it worked flawlessly.

I mean, it did it-- it flew a
grid perfectly for 12 minutes,

came back and landed no problem.

This thing ain't get up 10 feet.

ANDY BUSTAMANTE: This
machine is built to survive.

It's built to save itself.

Oh, absolutely.

ANDY BUSTAMANTE:
So the fact that it

just shut off and came crashing
down, that's highly anomalous.

What gets me is how
localized this anomaly is.

I mean, this Lower
Meadow is maybe

half a football field in size.

And really, what
this struck me as is

it's like it hits some
sort of persistent boundary

that just fried the
electronics, fried

all of the
self-preservation, and it

just brought it straight down.
- Yeah, I don't--

I don't understand it.

Well, let's go walk it.

Let's go take a walk.

Yeah.

I am so sorry to see--

to cost you guys another
piece of equipment.

ROBERT LEONARD: Well,
it's the price we

pay for being in this business.

First point to
the Lower Meadow.

But we're not done fighting yet.

Yeah.

PAUL BEBAN: I think we keep
going in this direction

and see if we can pick
up our void again.

Keep going.

PAUL BEBAN: I think we just
have Jerry keep clawing away.

We don't know
what's gonna happen,

but I think we keep going
where the data is pointing.

We have to find out if
there's a tunnel or not.

Definitely.

PAUL BEBAN: Like, we can't
figure out, is it a mining site?

Is it a military site?

And then why was it capped up
in what looks like a huge hurry

to get out of here?

Hey, you guys should come
over and take a look at this.

We got a date on
this bag over here.

Oh, really?

Yeah, I saw Jerry
pull this right

out of the hole with a scoop,
kind of towards the top railing.

But is that what this is?

Yep.

CARL ANDREASEN: So we have a
name, a website, and everything.

2005.

So this would be--

PAUL BEBAN: This is recent.

CARL ANDREASEN: --Bigelow trash
on top of all this old stuff.

So you've had it
for 16 years, 2007.

That was bought in 2005.

This was done right before then.

JEFF MACBURNIE: Right
before I bought it.

CARL ANDREASEN: So Bigelow must
have filled this in with some

of his stuff, potentially,
right before deciding

to sell it to you.

JEFF MACBURNIE: So
this is a big deal.

PAUL BEBAN: What it does is give
us a time stamp on this place.

2005, Bigelow still
owned this place.

Yeah.

This gives us a date.

PAUL BEBAN: Right.

What this does is
prove that Bigelow had

a big physical operation here.

And for some reason, buried
all this equipment in a hurry

before he sold it to Jeff.

Now, what that means about what
they were actually doing here,

that's what we've
got to figure out.

BRANDON FUGAL (VOICEOVER):
It has been a constant source

of frustration for the
Skinwalker Ranch team

that Robert Bigelow, who owned
both Skinwalker Ranch and Mount

Wilson Ranch at the same time,
has never shared the data

his teams uncovered
at either location.

BRANDON FUGAL: Bigelow came in
with his team National Institute

of Discovery Science,
or NIDS, and his team

conducted a very aggressive
scientific investigation.

Most of what Mr.
Bigelow and his team

studied and reported
on the ranch

remains either classified or
confidential and is locked away.

So I think we just have
Jerry continue along our axis.

Who knows what else we'll find?
- Yeah.

PAUL BEBAN: Right
along this beam.

JERRY PANKOW: Yep.
CARL ANDREASEN: Start digging.

JEFF MACBURNIE:
Yeah, let's do it.

[engine turns over]

[engine humming]

PAUL BEBAN: There's
got to be a void there.

JEFF MACBURNIE: Well,
the Leonard scan clearly

said there's a void,
so this might be

the entrance to it right here.

CARL ANDREASEN: We're getting
close to finding out real quick.

PAUL BEBAN: No matter what
this is, though, the question

is, why would you bury it?

Why would you go through
all this trouble?

BRANDON FUGAL (VOICEOVER):
As the dig progresses

in the Collapsed Area, Andy
and Terra Exploration Group

are taking a different
approach to getting

data in the Lower Meadow.

That looks like some
vintage equipment, man.

Yeah, I'm telling you.

Some of this stuff's been
around for a long time.

This is an old technology,
but it's very dependable.

ROBERT LEONARD: We got these
big coils we're gonna drag out.

And this one won't
give us an image,

but it'll give us a number.

If there's metal
under the ground,

we're gonna pick that up.

BRANDON FUGAL
(VOICEOVER): The EM-34

is a device that sends
electromagnetic frequencies

into the ground to measure the
conductivity of objects below,

such as metals.

The team will start by
measuring at 50 feet deep,

then go farther down to 100
feet, and finally 200 feet.

Higher readings
would indicate more

conductivity,
suggesting the presence

of a large, metal object.

We're sending a magnetic
field into the ground--

Through those.

--from one of
these into the other.

BOB LEONARD: We're gonna go
50 feet deep, because it'll

read down to that depth.

OK, so what's the reading?

BOB LEONARD: 0.04.

ROBERT LEONARD: OK, let's
move over a little bit.

BRANDON FUGAL (VOICEOVER):
Moving across the field

laterally, the team will take
several measurements until they

cover the entire Lower Meadow.

BOB LEONARD: OK, same, Robert.

ROBERT LEONARD: All right,
let's move over one.

BOB LEONARD: Same.
ROBERT LEONARD: Same?

So far, it looks
pretty low to me.

ROBERT LEONARD: Yeah.

All right, let me go
grab those other cables.

BRANDON FUGAL (VOICEOVER):
After covering the meadow

and detecting normal readings
at 50 feet below the surface,

the team will now move
on to test at 100 feet.

So we got a hundred
feet cable, yeah?

ROBERT LEONARD: Yep.

ANDY BUSTAMANTE: So we're going
just about a hundred feet.

ROBERT LEONARD: Are you
touching the ground?

Yeah.

ROBERT LEONARD: All
right, here we go.

Switch it.

OK.

BOB LEONARD: Wow.

ANDY BUSTAMANTE: It's
hugely different.

Holy smokes.

It's pegging off the charts.

At a hundred feet deep.

So we hit it,
whatever's down there.

50 feet deep was still
basically all soil.

So we went deeper and we
came across something.

Somewhere between
50 and hundred feet,

we're hitting some
kind of material

that is highly conductive.

Highly conducted.

ROBERT LEONARD: Let's
see if it still does it--

all right, about right there.

A little too--
yeah, that's good.

All right, come on, baby.

Come on, baby.

It's climbing, climbing!

So we're 10 feet further
from our last point,

but we're getting the same
results at a hundred feet deep.

We are seeing a highly
conductive, large mass of

something that's underground.

Whatever it is that
we're running into,

it's had the same readings from
here to where you are right now.

What's curious is it really
could be any number of things.

It could be some kind of
device that's never been shared

because it was classified for
some sort of government use

or it could be something
not of this planet at all.

I'd like to see somewhere
where it would stop.

ROBERT LEONARD: Well, if we
run out that bigger cable

and it goes back low, then we
know we've passed under it.

Yeah.

All right, so we'll get
this bigger cable out.

BRANDON FUGAL (VOICEOVER):
With an unidentified conductive

mass detected 100 feet down--

- Are we doing that big one?
- Yeah.

BRANDON FUGAL
(VOICEOVER): --the team

will now measure at 200
feet to see how large

this mysterious mass really is.

All right.

ROBERT LEONARD: All
right, here we go.

Are you on?

Yeah.

BOB LEONARD: I think
it's gonna peg out again.

Still climbing, 0.7.

BOB LEONARD: Something crazy
here, highly conductive.

We're off the chart.

BOB LEONARD: And that
means it's pretty thick

because we picked it
up at a hundred feet

and we picked it up at 200.

So whatever it is, it's big.

That's unbelievable.

ROBERT LEONARD: That's weird.

ANDY BUSTAMANTE: This
incredibly large conductive

mass, 200 feet underground.

What could be so
big and so deep?

BRANDON FUGAL
(VOICEOVER): Next time

on Beyond Skinwalker Ranch--

PAUL BEBAN: What is this thing?
What is it?

ROBERT LEONARD: It's a metallic
object that's shaped like this.

BOB LEONARD: The Manta
Ray, shape of a manta ray,

but being a craft.

ANDY BUSTAMANTE:
Something strange

was either developed on Mount
Wilson Ranch or discovered.

What the heck is
going on out here?

ANDY BUSTAMANTE: We got power.

PAUL BEBAN: They've got
to be Bigelow's right?

CARL ANDREASEN: Well, maybe they
were trying to use these to make

contact or to
communicate with whatever

is out in the Lower Meadow?

ANDY BUSTAMANTE: This is our
first chance to really carry out

an investigation with the same
technology, the same tool that

the Bigelow team may have used.

PAUL BEBAN: So this piece
of 50-year-old tech,

we'll just see what it does.

ANDY BUSTAMANTE: There's
absolutely something

happening that's causing this.

We might be reaching the
Manta Ray 200 feet down.

CARL ANDREASEN: Maybe this is
some kind of a communication?

ANDY BUSTAMANTE: The
fastest way to get

under ground in the Lower Meadow
is going to be through a void.

JEFF MACBURNIE: All
right, we've got a plan.

ANDY BUSTAMANTE: Wow.

PAUL BEBAN: Look at
the size of that thing.

ANDY BUSTAMANTE: Let her rip.
- This is it, Jeff.

We're about to find out.

[drilling]

PAUL BEBAN: Andy, do you want
the bad news or the bad news?

TRAVIS TAYLOR: You guys may
have captured a nefarious set

of oligarchs watching you
or a foreign intelligence

organization watching you.

This could be far stranger
than ghosts and aliens.

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

[theme music]
