Never tell the police that "something" is on your property. Tell them "someone" is trying to get into your house.
i be like fuc* this shi* iam out
Officer down I think there's an officer down and someone is burglarizing his patrol car on my gravel. Also they have someone filming it for TH-cam you better get here quick before they post it.
"officer someone is recording a rio-"
"we're sending 10 trucks and 31 cars, please remain where you are"
Not cool. Just tell them the truth so they can respond appropriately.
I mean, when they don't respond at all...
I've been through Palmyra. When i lived in the Bangor area, I used to work in Dexter, and had to pass through Palmyra often on the way back from Dexter. I can tell you that inland Maine is VERY different from coastal Maine. It's ALL very deep forest, and there's a constant, definite sense that you're being watched by something that HATES you and doesn't want you there. It's VERY creepy.
Yea my uncle lives up in palmyra, New England is just a creepy place in general with the history, the forest, etc. but palmyra especially gave me the creeps idk why. Something about the woods up there is different.
I hunt in the Dexter/Cambridge/Athens/Harmony area every year. It’s a bit spooky once that sun goes down. Never seen or heard of anything like this.
Just a guess, you don't work for the Maine Department of Tourism ?
@@moondawg3693 NO WAY
Activity in Carmel. Supernatural.
I don't know why this particular story fascinates me so much. Love this one
Have you seen the film (Werewolf in London) ?
@@The-Mighty-Orange American Werewolf in London actually. Pretty good for it's time
I’m like that with the Pine needle farm story by Mr b
Guns in the barn??? That’s a TERRIBLE idea!
That’s what happens when a guy lets his wife tell him what to do!
539strt exactly
Just the condensation from being outdoors will ruin the guns
@@539strt Yep.
WORST. I'd secretly stash one or two in places around the house...
living in a two-story large house in the middle of the forest and noticing that everything has gone quiet in the middle of the night is another level of horror
That must be terryifing, I also live in the country so if that happens to me im just gonna probally move to the ocean.
@@man_noplan you should check out some ocean horror stories then, lol
Do you have any weapons? Firearms? Dogs?
Hello does anyone here believe in Jesus???
@@connorlancaster7541 yea i do
How every paranormal story starts: *Family moves into cheap house in the middle of nowhere*
That's the truth - cheap house means no or inadequate security system and middle of nowhere means easy targets for just about anything - robbers, drifters, animals, ghosts?, werewolves?, etc. Moreover, empty houses out in the middle of nowhere could also mean it might have been inhabited before by just about anything one or twice before, including former but now deceased occupants. Anybody with a decent means will never want to leave in a place like this, and those desperate enough will likely vacate in no time or......
@@markchee4457 yeah you're right though. But then again, we can't blame those who get cheap housing like this. They're most probably suffering a financial crisis, that's a common factor in such stories. This is why you gotta have connections with literally anyone and everyone possible to make sure help arrives if you're in danger
🌸 it’s cheap for reason lol
I binged on Mr. Ballen about two years ago. I’ve watched all of his videos but now I’m back rewatching and I swear it’s just as captivating as the first time around.
Same here!
Me too.... Lol
Ikr lol
Shelly is the first person to die in any horror movie. Literally has both iq and survival instincts of a damn grapefruit.
This is a perfect summary 😂
Its like a family of Grapefruit, a family of grapefruit growing like a hand of bananas.
Little miss "no guns in the house" was the one who said "get the gun".
Fun fact: Grapefruits have an IQ of 347 and survival instincts of 598
Her husband should have said well too bad they staying inside the house
If everything in the woods goes quiet, it usually means there's an apex predator nearby.
Yea I hunt and I have one story that scares the absolute shit out of me that i lived through
Actually thats a myth, when an apex predator shows up sure the land animals get quiet but the birds, crows literally shout in their own way to alert the land animals that there is an apex predator nearby.
@@GeekRaj not in my story I was hunting one time and there were birds chirping which were normal and out of no where it was just quiet and just dread washed over me like I wasn’t alone anymore
@@zerotwo6396 so you were armed with gear and it went from normal to quiet and then you got that watched or stalked feeling?? Any other disturbances, like disorientation or strange sound?
@@bfreeman8786 So I was planted up in a tree stand with a rifle and a Flir scout because I hunt when it’s dark out in then morning but there’s some light that birds are about, so it just makes it easier to look for deer, while I was there about a good 35-45 mins of sitting there, that’s when everything went dead silent, and I started to have the back of my neck start to have the hairs rise up and I felt uneasy about everything at that point because I was alone and had no cell reception in a dense forest, then I started hearing branches break about 50-60 feet away from me, so I went to go look with my flir and it just would not turn on what’s so ever so I just sat there listening to this thing move and it sounded massive, I felt like it knew I was close by and was looking for me, so I stayed in the tree for another 40 mins till I no longer felt in danger and high tailed it through the woods for a good 3-4 miles to my truck, but while I was running it felt like something was off in the distance watching me. Other than that one time I never felt threatened ofc I live in Maryland where we do have black bears in a certain area but they normally don’t scare me at all so I shrug them off besides this time it felt like something else.
I love these stories I'm living in the woods about 160 miles north east of there and in this time I've heard packs of wolves / coyotes 2x and the dog looked out and said NOPE not going out.
As a zoologist, I can confirm, those animals weren’t woodpeckers😂😂
Thanks to the husband's 5 friends with parkor training and werewolf costumes he will always be able to keep the guns in the house.
Lol
Dead💀

This guy is so talented. Mesmerizing storyteller. I'm chronically ill and he has provided me with hours of entertainment and distraction from pain.

This was my very 1st episode from John Ballen, and by far my most favorite episode. Watched it 4 times now, followed by that one "When you hear a bell, RUN"...
The two creepiest ones for me. The bell episode absolutely TERRIFIED me.
Owning a gun or any other defensive weapon is useless if it’s not accessible almost immediately at any time.
I think the husband should have insisted they keep the guns in the house.
@@jackoh991 you have a good point but I would hope responsible adult gun owners would keep their guns put away from children. My husband and I have grown children and no grandchildren nor any small children around but we still keep our guns secured.
Jack Oh I grew up around guns and was taught etiquette, and that you don’t friggin touch them without permission. Additionally, you can keep a locked gun case in your room and hide the key if your kid is, I don’t know, a little shit who doesn’t listen.
Exactly
@@jackoh991 That almost never happens. Most people's kids are WAY smarter than that. -but I suppose that depends on the parents.
And that’s the story how the husband won on having his guns back in the house. Respect.
Guns yes the more the better
Damn right! Weapons should always be readily available!!
Fool put his guns in the garage for his wife? There's the door babe. Have a nice life......maybe.
ROFL
I mean, a man gets no respect for having to win an argument to have equipment to protect his family in his house.. maybe he shoulda just put his foot down and made her get over it
This episode is special to me because this is where I discovered @MrBallen. I remembered the Paranormal Witness episode when visiting my mom in Maine, and played this for her since she had not heard the story. Been hooked ever since.
Yes! I knew this story was familiar. Paranormal Witness! That episode was so scary!
Yes I also know about this story but is this story copied from Mr Ballen podcast or from the series paranormal witnesses I am confused can anyone pls clear this to me because if this story is the same then I am just again watching it , i mean I don't mind re-watching it but it's repetitive right.
I believe this was the first one i watched also. Then i got hooked on Dogman stories lol
I live in Tennessee and know that you should not be outside in the dark woods at night… especially if all the surrounding wildlife goes quiet. I have also seen creatures I cannot explain, and they are much bigger than any human I have witnessed. Eric had some serious courage and bravery to do that in order to protect his family; I am glad they all survived.
How did you see them? Were you in your house or in a car?
Not wolves, not bears...
Jehovah Witness night shift
Yay for nightmares
Yeah
soon as I read this had to take a quick glance behind, for safety reasons
I'm a Jehovah's witness and i found this the best comment ever Bahahahaha
Fuck I laughed too hard at this😂
I'm not personally a gun person, but what the hell is the point of having guns for protection, if they're not in the damn house.
None!!!
exactly bro like you always put your damn guns in the damn house because if you don’t then whatever you come across demon person or what you’re probably gonna die or be hurt
‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️
Stupid, right? And you just know that a creepy clown or other movie killer is going to come across it and use it on you.
@@ameliafroehlich2577 it's not stupid, he had guns for hunting and suddenly super creatures came to attack. An incident or an outcome is not someone's fault, even if it's a mistake as one does not predict, control nor create results for a whole situation. Your actions and thoughts result in something and are altered by other results which end in other results which makes an outcome. Mistakes are not known or predicted ways, and predictions and thoughts might've been of something else, stupidity is when someone is carelessly ignoring of or not understanding of one basic clear part. Don't misuse the calling of stupidity.
This is what got me hooked on Dogman stories!!! Plenty Creepy
I live in Mathews VA and this here kinda' puts some trails to what I saw back in July/August 2014. I was 17, had two buddies with me and went for a walk up to the good ole 711 from a place we all stayed at that summer. Took a back road walk on Seaford road to get there and it's a long stretch of gravel to the main road, and it's pitch black thanks to the covering of trees, we all agreed early we felt something watching us and we didn't pay it much mind really. Halfway down we for whatever reason could hear chains drag occasionally and then they semi skidaddled and I just kept walking normal. As I caught up at the end of the road, I came into some light from the street post and I was maybe 25-30 foot into the light, we all got a feeling to turn and look back and there was a 7.5-8ft tall wolf/coyote that had mint green jewel like eyes standing up walking towards the light and then got down and lowered it's head slowly into the light and we all ran after that. It was the most random thing but it was very real
Shelly is a rural lady and *doesnt* want guns in the house? No way. If you’re isolated you want guns around.
Yeeeeees! If someone DARE to say that to me while in a isolated area i would throw them out of the house unarmed. And if i saw those demons myself and they didn't believe it i would throw them outside no mercy. Be smart don't be a dumbass.
I live in a rural area and our guns are in my husbands shop about 150 ft from the house. In 25 years we have never had the occasion to need them.
Whether you live in the city, country, car, or even an island you always want to keep a gun around. Better to have one and not need it than to need it and not have it
And instead of trusting her SO's instincts on the porch she fights over it. She annoyed me a couple of times during this story. You listen to each other and if one of you has an instinctive feeling you act on it and don't stand around arguing.
If your not isolated you need them close. No point to the statement
Survival Tip: when moving into a house in a rural area, be sure to keep pets inside for the first few weeks, as other predators will consider the animal an intruder until they realize the home is now inhabited.
Survival Tip 2: If your inside, and the woods go silent, bring pets and children inside. This means a much larger predator is near. Silence is only calming when you are indoors.
Great tips! I don’t use these a lot!.
Agreed
If animals are dead silent and refuse to go somewhere TURN AROUND
Great tips! I want to note at times animals in the woods will not go quiet when there is a large predator. I live in Montana and the birds and other various small animals will get louder when a predator is near.
@Lewi Cifer your saying you think it was just wolves?
@Lewi Cifer wolves stand on 2 legs now?
Mr. Ballen, without a doubt, was the one who gave the best narration of this story, congratulations on the excellent work
I grew up in the remote woods of Maine. I've been an outdoorsman since I could walk and have an intimate understanding of the wildlife. I'm an excellent tracker.
Without going into much detail, can say that my family and I saw lights similar to those that you describe on a winter's night in 1983. A group of friends and I also saw one of these creatures on a lonely road to Quebec in Northern Maine back in 1988.
I've always been sober and I don't have any mental illness. That said, the things that I have witnessed both in the woods and on the water along the coast in Maine would make a bald person's hair stand on end.
I've always been an atheist, but what I have seen during my lifetime, especially in the remote areas of Maine have convinced me that there is far more happening than we understand.
why is your nickname in russian if you grew up in Maine?
@@bj_cat103All the Soviets spies moved to Maine. All those creatures are soviet experiments.
Am I the only one that felt relieved when she found their two dogs safe at the master's bedroom? 12:08
ME I WAS SO HAPPY
I caught myself holding my breath until she found them.
My brother left when he started to talk about the dogs because he didn’t want to hear about the dogs dying.
I had to go it him and tell him they were safe lol
I was so afraid they were outside
If them dogs were out there I would use myself as human bait and let the dogs run inside
“This experience was so traumatic they left and sold the house”
The next family that moves there: Honey
are those wolves?
He says "Hang on, let me use the scope to get a better look." BANG! "Nice big one, love! Can't wait to take some pictures."
Shoots it and it looks at him. To Be Continued...
Naa, Can't be wolves. They're all standing up tall and looking at us.. must be the neighbors.
@@kevindouglas8768 Damn, the neighbors are Furries
@@seigwardofcatarina5776 lmao
This is probably my favorite story on this channel. It gives me the creeps every time. Once they get on the porch and roof and the scratching....
I’ve come back to this story so many times along with Mr ballens first post of the ghost that haunts him. Two of my fav stories of all time
I have seen this same story on paranormal witnesses but I don't get it is this story copied by Mr Ballen sir from their podcast by the paranormal witnesses or vice versa pls clear this I am actually curious.
I just want to say if the wild life goes dead silent and u get an eerie vibe that means there is an apex predator there.....seen or unseen
Yep, sometimes even just another person (which can also be a threat).
True true
When wild life goes silent *get in the house don’t ask why just get in it might be a werewolf but it might be a very big bear or animal pasing by
Yep
@@charliedallachie3539 nah, people won’t have that kind of effect

Thank you for telling this. This was on the SiFi channel a couple of years after it happened. Linda Godfrey also has it in one of her books. Thanks again, from Maine.
Werewolves: cool
Dogmen type creatures like this: fucking terrifying
3 days a month compared to dogmen and I've heard Bigfoot encounters with dogmen dogmen get the crap beaten out of them, cool it's like Godzilla vs monster zero
For sure dogman
@@deusexmachinamotorsports1505 ikr they are scary
They sound like amazing creatures. Equally terrifying tho. 🔥🙀
I heard from a investigator speak on TV that skin walkers are not just in Utah but spread all over the USA, kind of disappointing to me because I liked the deal with bigfoot getting competion of another nonhuman humanoid species racing about terrorizing people in the woods.
Who else randomly found his channel is now addicted?
me I SWEAR I found this last thursday or something but its is SOo addicting i found this channel when i was watching bedtime stories skinwalker ranch
yes sir
Kinda
Yep
Yep! Just got here today
Randomly remembered this video and came back to rewatch it. Great stuff dude
Dang Mr. Ballen, you have blown the heck up since I've been following you!! I think that is wonderful!! 😄🤗
Husband to friends: "My wife doesnt let me keep my guns in the house"
Friends: "Dont worry bro we got you"
Later that night:
Excellent plan to make a believer. Nice.
The Truth! 😆😆😆😆😆
I'm not quite sure that that is true, but it'd be funny if I just got scared of forests only to find out it was some dressed up people or whatever you wanna call them.
Halloween: Yeah I know what to be next year honey.
He also keeps his BALLS in his wife's purse
What would’ve happened if the wear wolves grabbed the guns 🔫
Here is a piece of advice: When you get "that feeling" that "something is off", wrong, etc et al, TRUST IT. Leave. Now. Do. Not. Second. Guess. It.
Exactly right my friend, exactly right...Apart from the obvious, another reason why we should always trust our gut feeling is because if you start ignoring it, you'll stop getting them. Or it'll be off kilter, like you'll get the gut feeling when you shouldn't...
So yes, ALWAYS listen and trust your gut feeling ☺💖☮
Great advice I am always preaching listen to your gut you never know when it just might save your life.

True it is instinct.

This was my first Mr Ballen video glad I continued watching
This was the video that introduced me to MrBallen, great video :)
12:15 who else just is SO HAPPY that the dogs are alive.
AAAAw meeeeeee. So happy
Me. I also had my dog watching with me and she understands the human language so she was scared. Poor thing.
Right!
me too. the dogs welfare was my first thought!!!
As soon as he said she didn’t know where they were my heart dropped
Imagine at the end of the story the creatures say, “We’ve been trying to reach you about your car’s extended warranty.”
😂😂😂😂🤣
Dumb
They just wanted to let them know they can make up to a thousand dollars a month donating hemoglobin
Ok cole

Years later this is still one of my favorite stories from Mr. Ballen.. what brought me back AGAIN today is because another TH-camr was telling this story and told all the way messed up I got so mad at how bad his story telling was that I had to come back and hear my favorite story be told by my favorite and the best story teller of all time Mr. Ballen 🥰💯
I love this story! It always creeps me out.
It’s one thing feeling like your in danger and seeing something but when your dogs express the same thing, YOU BETTER RUN
Freaking dogs have like a million senses

Child eater
Yes dogs are much more perspective about those things
Annihilateanate the monster
I remember some years ago I was walking home from work around 3am. The road I walked was surrounded by forest and not many lights. That night the forest went silent and I could have sworn I was being watched, so I hurried my pace and made it to a taco bell that a friend worked at. Thankfully they had a maintenance guy there so I ran up to there door and called out to him. He saw me run up and opened the door to let me in. Not even a second later a pack of wolves ran right up to the door. They had been following me for about 3-4 miles. A silent forest is not safe. My advice, get to shelter fast.
Where do you live? I'm in West London, UK - not a problem I'll ever have to endure whilst here!
@@lurkster1974 when this happened I used to live in Tumwater Washington in the US. There was alot of forests between there and my work in Olympia.
@@lurkster1974 for sure. One of my fondest memories of Washington was standing in the middle of the street and on my left it was snowing and on my right it was raining. That place is so mystical. But one day I would love to visit London. I hear great things about the country sides from friends.
The wolves should be happy u didnt go to Taco Bell before you met them
@@VenomBurst mystical is good. I found Kathmandu that way.
I'd love to go to Washington state day, mountain biking, but for now I'll stick with Scotland and Wales.
Mr. Ballen,
You're an excellent narrator, this was such a good story. I have a Chromecast plugged into my TV so I can watch all the videos in my livingroom. Many times I have fell asleep but not this time. I'm subbed, left a thumbs up, and a tap on the bell. I'm looking forward to seeing more of your stories, thanks for sharing.
Hey Mr.Ballen.. I'm from Brewer Maine... not too far from your old haunts...
Great stories..

I think this is my fav Mr ballin I love the creepy creatures and goul stories he started with! Now it's more true crime than paranormal I miss these early days! A lot!!!! He's changes things and I miss the creepy things like this and 411 and the unexplained!!!!!!!!

It's funny tho because In the majority of Mrballens stories the animals always come smarter then the humans 🤣🤣
The dogs were already upstairs hiding together🤣 they disowned the family when them creatures hit the porch 😂😂

Ive lived in Maine my whole life. Wolves are very rare here but are seen from time to time, they come down from Canada and usually spotted up north in our state. We do have coyotes up here but usually they are pretty skiddish of humans. And they dont get that big. Funny thing is ive never heard this story before and i know a lot of stories in maine. Ive also found mounds in the woods like the ones you described from the story. I will have to look more into this now.
Same!
This is my favorite story you ever told...😊😊😊
Someone breaks into the house: Oh hello there.
Them: hey wait let me go get my guns from *THE FUCKING BARN* .
Hhaahahah legendarno
🤣🤣🤣
let me go get my guns
from THE FUCKING BARN .
lmao for real, aint right
If anything I would keep my guns under my bad or in a closet or if had a handgun I would keep it in a drawer, the last place I would put my guns would be *MY FUCKING BARN*
The wife refusing to go inside did it for me ..I've never asked questions when someone felt something was off and suggested we leave or go inside .....🤦🏾♀️
‘Better safe than sorry’ is always the better philosophy to follow. The fact that the story led off with that she refused to allow guns in the house despite living in a rural, borderline wilderness, area of Maine tells you she’s not that thoughtful about things.
KucklePuff Exactly. Not having easily accessible protection in such a place was a pretty stupid decision.
@@QixTheDS I can’t imagine having a wife tell me that guns had to be kept in the barn! First of all, EVERY child should be taught about the safe handling of firearms as soon as they enter public school. As a society, we’ve gone completely off the reservation when it comes to this. Second, how secure can you really make your weapons in a barn? If the safe isn’t properly anchored into concrete with Hilti anchors, anyone can take it.
For over 20 years, I’ve slept with a suppressed SMG next to my bed, and I’ve only had to use it once in anger. I travel nearly every week, and I have a special bag that conceals my MP5. If I’m flying, I only travel with a handgun, but I can’t imagine living like these folks without a gun ready at all times. Seems like lunacy to me. Can you imagine if they’d had firearms and killed an unidentified apex predator? That would be a world-changing event!
@ororogrey IKR… also the husband going out leaving the door unlocked to get to the barn 🤦🏻♂️. They could’ve just called the police while staying inside
@@ncrawford1488 If they'd actually managed to shoot it, and had the body, that story would be buried *so* fast.
Oh Heck! Ive just been watching the brilliant cult film

NEVER EVER LET A WOMAN TELL YOU THAT YOU CAN'T KEEP YOUR FIREARMS IN THE HOUSE. EVER!!!!

You know, the glowing orb, followed by the appearance of these wolf-beings sounds very similar to the happenings at the skinwalker ranch.
Yes Similar The Skinwalker Ranch one is Mr Favorite Mr.Ballen. Video
That's exactly what I thought

I thank my teacher for showing this channel to us years ago still really addicting.
As this finished up, my dogs started freaking out. There was a deer on our porch. I was scared 😂

Wow timing lol that’s scary but funny
The video summoned it 😆🤣

I've been using TH-cam for 10 years, followed thousands, watched maybe a million videos... even made a few myself. There has never been a TH-camr that I was so excited to see a new video uploaded. I've never waited in anticipation for a new video from a particular TH-camr like I do from Mr.Ballen. Thank you! Much respect to you and yours. Most of all thank you for your service. Stay frosty my friend.
Same here can't get enough. I love how he describes everything. I strongly dislike when it's over, Ahhhhhhh no more. I guess there would be to much of a good thing tho. (maybe) John and Dixie Cryptid my two favorites. 🐾🇨🇦
Wow I really feel so flattered, thank you for letting me know!!!
Same and i tend to enjoy comments more than the content.. nope Mr Ballen gets my full attention and hit the comments after!
Same. He’s like Bob Gymlan but more horror stories.
I hate seeing these new videos. I have no time to recover in between.
Wrote this for my english activity.
Gave my classmates nightmares
Plot twist: the creatures were just trying to reach them about their car's extended warranty

How/why did they not just break the windows? That's the problem I have with all these close-call paranormal/UFO abduction stories. They're so fantastical in every which way except a few key ones. Like 8' tall monsters scratching at wooden doors but glass windows are somehow entirely anathema. Aliens travel whatever distance you want, from another planet or dimension, and are dumbfounded by things like humans feeling pain (Travis Walton recalling aliens apologizing to him for stabbing a needle into his leg), or various concepts that such beings should just be able to reason out (Betty Hill's discussions with the aliens onboard their craft seeming like a cultural exchange rather than an abduction). I don't know man. Maybe they just had neighbors that didn't like them and wanted to force them out.
Most animals don’t actually understand glass because it’s a clear thing that isn’t found in nature at all. Like birds can’t see glass which is why birds will try to fly through windows on people’s houses. Also the family had the windows covered so maybe the creatures didn’t realize that there was glass maybe they just thought it was a different colored wall. Or maybe they see in black and white and couldn’t make out the different colors so they just thought it was a normal wall.
And well I don’t believe most alien stories I do believe that initially aliens would try to learn about us not just murder people. Idk if you’ve seen it but MrBallen has a video about skinwalker ranch, which is ironic because if that story is true it sounds like aliens and not at all skinwalkers, but the creatures on skinwalker ranch would press their face against windows and look though them they also never tried to harm the people or get into the house. So I believe Aliens in these stories aren’t trying to destroy people but more so observe them.
Also about the pain thing I would imagine that aliens probably invented very advanced medical treatments maybe one of them is removing or highly limiting pain so that could explain why they’d be shocked about a human feeling pain. I mean we have medicine that removes and limits pain so it isn’t impossible for aliens to have a more advanced version.
Animals aren't' known for breaking into windows.
Wood feels softer to them than a window. Yeah if they lunged into the window they could probably break it, but animals tend to use their claws to dig/burrow rather than use blunt force to knock things down. This is actually pretty consistent animalistic behavior. Throwing their bodies into a surface that to the touch feels harder than the wood would make no sense and could result in them causing harm to themselves.
What killed it for me was hearing that the police refused to come out and save them. That would never happen in real life. And you're right about the windows too. Those things would have smashed their way inside somehow.
Because they're dumb animals. Fantastical or not.
I miss Mr.ballen old school way God bless you brotha and thank you for your service
Wife: What are they doing out there?
Husband: They're just standing there....MENACINGLY!
GET OUT OF THERE, SPONGEBOB!!!
You had to say it😂😂
Ha ha 😂
Don't be a jerk and invite them in for coffee
And that's when we knew it was bullshit
Dogmen definitely exist, I'm native American and there's a legitimate reason why the elders always said don't go out after dark and never whistle after dark or else you will call the darkest creatures in the night directly to you
I’ve noticed that when I’ve visited relatives in rural areas they are super insistent on being in before night. I’m used to dealing with urban danger at night and up in the foothills outside the city, one can explore at night.
However I learned that exploring the woods at night isn’t a good idea. Especially when all the noises of the woods stop and a feeling of dread comes. One great uncle told me, The woods are a lot more dangerous than you know, there are things out there that you don’t want to run into.
Aren't the wendigos as well in native america culture
Please tell me your spooky story XD
They really do. I too have Native heritage. I have had many different types of experiences because we were raised with an openness that did not shut down reality.
@@rougealfa5361 yes, but this is the wrong geographic region and would have had no problem getting into the house
THIS NEEDS TO BE A MOVIE!!!
They’ve already done it! It’s called “The Pack.” It’s the exact same premise as this story, and a very good movie.
This is my favorite Mr. Ballen story.
Sure babe, if an intruder comes I’ll ask them to kindly wait as I get the rifle from the barn.
😂😂😂😂
Exactly, so stupid to have them in the barn
Yea she gonna have to get over that crap, the guns gonna be in the house wether she likes it or not!
69th like. I deserve a sub
Female logic
They see five "ceatures" stalking them or waiting for them to come outside. I'd be worrying about any they can't see.
Especially when the couple saw 5 creatures at the field but after they came to the yard, they could only see 3..... Pack predators are known to circle their prey while one or more distracts the prey.
Sidenote: american door knobs are supreme with these kinds of events, paws are not great for rotating knobs. European "press down and open sesame" handles don't require much intelligence or trial to open. Just hope you had time to lock the door after you.
Its not the dark you're afraid of. Its whats in the dark.
Clever girl...
@@_mdgamer4289 omfg fix your absolutely terrible spelling
Pack mentality/hunting will have them trap you and make you think you can get away but really you’re being played with and led into a setup.
I think that these creatures are a new species or a species that has bin around and not bin noticed. So those footprints could be a huge way to see if someone else found them. Thank you for making this video!
Its been years since i first heard MrBallen tell this story, and ive listened to ot 50 times or more. Yet, it still gets me every time. My spine chills and my muscles contort, i know whats coning next and yet, the imagry Ballen gives is such that i still want to go hide under my covers at 27 years old.
I have spent thousands of hours hunting in the wilderness of the rockies, not like sitting in a stand but actually tracking elk and walking many miles each day and let me tell you being in the woods when it’s completely silent is of if not the scariest things I’ve experienced
@@Wisdom-Nuggets-Tid-Bits everyones a tuff guy till they encounter something they can't explain.
@@Wisdom-Nuggets-Tid-Bits 100% you've never experienced it lol. Quit yapping online
@@Wisdom-Nuggets-Tid-Bits highly doubtful lmfao. nobody I've met including myself and my friend has experienced anything nearly as scary. what do you do for a living? patrol a haunted hotel?
@@Wisdom-Nuggets-Tid-Bits no shit it happens all the time, doesn't make it any less unnerving to experience lol.
@@Wisdom-Nuggets-Tid-Bits Yeah....that's why they call it uncanny. And anyone that isn't worried when it happens is completely clueless. Every single animal out there is not making a noise so they don't get attacked or eaten but not you?? It does not make you the bravest .....just the least aware.
The moral of this story would be don’t let you wife talk you into keeping your firearms in the barn instead of the house! Thanks for your service man and enjoy your channel.
Hahaha
Wife isn't TELLING me anything about my guns because they will still be around long after she is gone lol.
@@treerat6959 amen
Well I just recently got rid of the internet at my house because my wife apparently knows everything I’m now second guessing my decision.
Also if you call 911 don't complain about animals, say it's a home invasion. That way your'e not lying and you get police response.
My favorite Mrballen story 🙏
I don't know what it is about this story but It really scares the hell outta me and I keep coming back to it several times a month now after an encounter I had in upstate PA.If more people knew of this story, would others be more open to talk?Just knowing what these people had seen and felt and comparing their story to what I'd seen and interacted with, knowing these creatures exist is truly terrifying.I witnessed one of these things 30ft from me and they witnessed and were stalked by a pack/troop of them on their land that the family moved on to.These creatures know that it's their territory and they will protect that den from man and mans terrible habits of destruction and perishing nature.This story is just scary as fudge.. LoudLove
“You know those guns that might be needed to protect our isolated, helpless little family? Go ahead and keep them anywhere but in the house where we can get to them”
Yep! Guns stay in the house; wife stays in the barn.
For real, I get being worried about kids but that's what gun safes and keeping ammo in a separate area are for
@@christiniakollar8397 That isolation is the very reason I wouldn’t feel safe unless I had firearms. When authority response times can take 10 minutes, I’d rather at least have the option to protect myself, my family, and my property. Guns aren’t the answer to every problem, but when they are the answer they’re a damn good thing to have. I almost clicked off the video when I heard him say he kept the guns in the barn😂
Woman moment.
Exactly. Children that are raised by responsible gun owners are taught to be responsible themselves. Common sense and fear of an ass whopping would keep those kids from messing with their parents guns. It's typically the ones with dumbazz parents that do otherwise.
Bet his wife never took issue with him keeping guns in the house ever again. And started trusting his honed hunter instincts.
I’d hope so!

This is by far my favourite story
My wife , “the baseball bat in the room looks untidy, I’ll put it back it the utility cupboard downstairs where it belongs”. Exactly four days later, “I can hear noises downstairs, go and see what it is, take something with you just in case”. Me, “Like a baseball bat?” My wife, “Good idea there’s one in the cupboard downstairs”.
Tell her to go get it 😂

My half acre property has a 5 ft fence all the way around the property. A week ago someone was on our property --the hood on car was jarred so now we keep the outside lights on at night and i (30 something mother) keep a alloy baseball bat next to me as I sleep.
Oh hell yes its on.

I wonder how many times that house has been bought and sold. Sherif has probably gone out there before and said Oh HELL no! Not again!
We lived in a house that had “something” in it. We sold and it’s gone though 5 owners since. I can’t help but wonder...
Why don't they kill or capture those creatures? Cuz fake

Welp, here it is 2am and this story scared the shit out of me. Nice job!
This is one of my favorite stories.
Shelly : Babe, you’ve gotta put the guns out in the barn btw make sure they are stored inside a heavy box and lock the barn door on your way back.
Shelly : Babe , let’s just sit outside everyday in the evening and sip hot coffee after dinner.
Shelly : Babe , wait wtf is that near the tree line ? let me check by flashing my flash light on it .
Shelly : Babe , you a fucking chicken ? let’s just wait outside the house and have a clear view of what’s running towards us at Mach 5 speed !
Shelly : Babe , our teenage daughter is sleeping peacefully let me just wake the bitch up and traumatise her for the rest of her life.
Shelly : Babe , I’ll call the cops and tell them that I think we are being hunted down by ummmm “Something” that’s running outside our house.
You gotta love Shelly , you don’t find a gem like her even if you search for one with flashlights !
Man, this gave me a good laugh. I'd say, "it really makes you wonder about people sometimes," but I wonder about people a lot of the time.
This situation shoud have resulted in the guy just moving his guns back inside without a word.
Naivete isn't a crime, but it's surely isn't helpful in this situation.
Wait doesn’t Shelly have fun of her own? I’m just joking when I heard the name Shelly I thought of Shelly from brawlstars
@@BriggsDCory She really should have listened when he said to get back inside. Good hunters know that if all creatures are quiet, it means a predator is out and is hunting. Have some survival instincts. “But I want to sit outside a little longer and enjoy my coffee, even though something doesn’t feel right.”
@@R0gueM Urbanites are the most clueless creatures on earth. Yet they like to tell rural folks how nature works.
Shelley sounds like one of those horror movie characters that survives only because the plot demands it.
@Ken Fullman how do you explain them seeing 8 foot tall creatures
@Ken Fullman explain scratch marks?
@@Nothing-ru4ft Pretty easily, to be honest. It's the same reason why people can look pictures taken from the sky that show entirely normal land formations, and instead interpret them as buildings/structures that don't exist and create conspiracies about what they must be. The human mind instinctively looks for familiar patterns and shapes, and can often succeed in either convincing us that we've seen things that aren't there or severely exaggerating their features.
In the case of fear and anxiety, it's not terribly unusual for us to exaggerate the characteristics of something that we find threatening. Likely a leftover survival mechanism from a long time ago, when it was probably safer for Ug and Throg to interpret a predator as bigger than it is and run instead of underestimating it and trying to fight. Throw in low visibility due to limited light sources, and it's easy to mistake things around the predator (or even the predator's own shadow) as an actual part of said predator, thus making it appear far more massive in our mind's eye.
There's a good reason why anecdotal evidence - personal experiences, such as eyewitness accounts - is generally considered the weakest form of evidence. The human mind is an incredible thing, but it's also *very* flawed and easily capable of tripping itself up. After all, we're talking about the same brains that can make us do ridiculous shit like frantically turn a room inside out to find "lost" car keys that we're literally holding the whole time.
