Many reported cases of people going missing in the Appalachian Mountains The search area has expanded as the day stretch into a full week since the youngster was reported missing.
2
that are never found, with people posting videos of them feeling weird, hearing whistling, and even seeing figures.
3
What is going on here?
4
The flashback in here?
5
Oh!
6
Skinwalker!
7
Hello?
8
Yo, the flashback!
9
In case you didn't notice, I'm in the Appalachian Mountains right now.
10
We're going to try to figure out all the theories and see if this is just a trend on TikTok or if it's something real.
11
I'm going to start with my first lead of weird stuff happening in the Appalachian Mountains, Dustin.
12
Dustin is a TikToker who had this video blow up.
13
No, because I'm freaking out, guys.
14
So I just Snapchatted my friend, right?
15
Like, I have tried to...
16
In the back of this video, there is this face.
17
A bunch of people commented on it, trying to figure out what it is, if this is real, and he also acted oblivious.
18
A bunch of people started going crazy, creating theories around this.
19
It's going absolutely viral on TikTok right now.
20
And later, he ended up posting even more weird stuff that happened at that location and other locations in the Appalachian Mountains.
21
He saw a figure, bro.
22
That's crazy.
23
That's crazy.
24
I have to figure out if this is true or not.
25
We talked to the guy.
26
He followed me back.
27
We DMed back and forth.
28
He doesn't want to say where the location is because basically he said the business is scared it will hurt the business So we tried to find the location of this place to see if we could get any paranormal activity there But after searching for literally hours,
29
we just we couldn't which is when I did a little bit more research on Dustin I looked at many of his older videos on the Appalachian Mountains and to be honest the further back I went the more just they looked like skits They looked completely fake Honestly,
30
my theory is that he's just making skits even though a ton of people believe that it's real This is just my theory for now, but this whole lead seemed like a dead end.
31
But there are still so many other stories and videos on the Appalachian Mountains.
32
So I looked into a bunch and came up with three theories of what people think is out there that I'll explain and look for more later.
33
Theory one, feral people.
34
Basically wild people that for many years have been rumored to live in the mountains.
35
Theory two, skinwalkers.
36
Basically ancient witch creatures that can shapeshift.
37
And finally, theory three, ghosts.
38
people believe a lot of spots are haunted, which I will go to and test later on.
39
This trail goes deep into the smoky Appalachian Mountains.
40
We're just excited to find feral people, probably because they're the most likely real.
41
Well, they, I think they are real.
42
Oh, whoa, what is that?
43
We're in a Minecraft multiplayer world right now.
44
I think we're getting into the abandoned town.
45
For theory one, this six-year-old boy went missing in this exact national park that we're in.
46
Literally where we're at right now.
47
Went completely missing.
48
For a while, they thought he wandered off, but they didn't think he could have got that far that quick.
49
So the father basically put out, I think it was like $25,000 to anyone who could find him.
50
The Green Beret went searching after him.
51
Basically, what I'm trying to emphasize here is insane amounts of people went looking after him and found nothing.
52
The creepiest part is the dad said a few minutes after he went missing, in the direction he went missing, they heard multiple terrifying screams.
53
Which literally gives me goosebumps right now.
54
That's a real story, and we hear people talking about screams in the Appalachian Mountains.
55
So that like almost that correlates really well and that's honestly so terrifying.
56
That way?
57
Yeah.
58
All right, Arzu.
59
Don't spook me like that, buddy.
60
Dude, I'm actually scared of feral people now.
61
I'm guessing these footprints of shoes are not feral people.
62
I don't think they would have shoes.
63
All right, let's keep going down the path.
64
I don't know.
65
My friend Tommy even told me a story.
66
I'll probably put the clip in real quick.
67
I've heard stories from people who go camping, and they set up their campsites.
68
They go to, like, go fish or whatever.
69
They come back.
70
Their The campsite is now occupied by wild people, like feral people.
71
There's nothing we can do to really look for feral people, to be honest.
72
That's the one thing we shouldn't have to find.
73
They'll probably find us.
74
I swear I heard something.
75
Like what?
76
Like cracking and then heavy breathing.
77
So many different theories up here.
78
I think that's why like so many people talk about the Appalachian Mountains.
79
But the next theory is skinwalkers, because a lot of people were saying like, Skinwalkers wouldn't be out here.
80
They're Navajo, and we're not anywhere near Navajo areas.
81
But other people are like, oh, well, they can travel like anyone else.
82
A lot of people hear whistling.
83
All right, I say we go somewhere deep in the forest.
84
Search for skinwalkers.
85
Oh, my gosh.
86
This looks like where I would get jumped by a skinwalker.
87
So there's a few things that you're never supposed to do, especially in these areas.
88
Just one, say its name, Skinwalker.
89
Two, whistle.
90
Let's play it like the penis game.
91
Before we call the Skinwalkers to our current location, Skinwalker!
92
Skinwalker!
93
I'm gonna tell you a little bit about today's sponsor, Upside.
94
Upside is a free app where you can earn money just from using it.
95
Last time we called for Skinwalkers, we literally heard a terrifying scream.
96
It's not like these other things where you get points or something.
97
You literally get the hard cash back.
98
But quickly, I'm going to show you how Upside works.
99
You just open the app, put it in your card, and it will show you where you can earn money.
100
This gas station is literally one of the hundreds of thousands of gas stations, restaurants, and grocery stores that are on Upside.
101
I already claimed the deal.
102
Stop.
103
We're processing your cash back.
104
You'll be notified in two to four days.
105
The top users earn back up to $300 per month.
106
To find out how much you could earn, click the link in the description and use code RUBYGAVIN to get an extra 25 cents off of every gallon on your first tank of gas.
107
Or you can scan the QR code.
108
And a little later, I got the money from Upside.
109
So I'll start, I'll start.
110
Skinwalker.
111
Skinwalker.
112
Skinwalker.
113
Skinwalker.
114
Skinwalker.
115
Skinwalker.
116
Skinwalker.
117
Skinwalker.
118
Skinwalker.
119
Skinwalker.
120
Skinwalker.
121
Skinwalker!
122
Skinwalker!
123
Skinwalker!
124
Skinwalker!
125
High up and...
126
Skinwalker!
127
Park Ranger coming for us right now.
128
That's a real enemy, bro.
129
Surprise park over.
130
Dude, we're done for if we see something.
131
I think it's just shadows, see?
132
I feel like I can't hear anything over there.
133
I'll aim the light over there as I whistle.
134
Wait, was it that one?
135
Actually, it might have been the other one.
136
Me when I see your mom.
137
Loki, yeah, we just did like everything that should attract one.
138
You know, walkers and more like skin all talkers.
139
That was actually a good one.
140
That was a good one.
141
Respect.
142
So for the final theory, we ended up having to drive a little bit further to find these abandoned houses in the mountains that people believed ghosts were at.
143
But after a lot of searching in the dark, this area used to be kind of like a vacation spot.
144
And also it was a area that a lot of people wanted to start like logging.
145
Always need more wood, am I right?
146
Okay.
147
Okay.
148
A lot of people died due to logging incidents.
149
And then also there was a train derailment.
150
So that's kind of the story of it.
151
A lot of people died here.
152
A lot of people claim to have uneasy feelings here.
153
People had died.
154
And there's no denying there's a creepy feel when you're there.
155
I've even gone there with a spirit box and gotten some intelligent conversation.
156
But there's a ton more.
157
Boom.
158
House right there.
159
Boom.
160
House right there.
161
Boom, idiot.
162
Oh, shit.
163
What is that?
164
It's a bird, dude.
165
Oh.
166
I actually kind of feel bad for the bird now.
167
He was sleeping.
168
Damn.
169
That scared the...
170
Oh, Jesus.
171
The plan was to set up ghost gear to use, but I wanted to check out the house first, which is when it started to get weird.
172
So I'm just gonna literally set this up.
173
Let me turn on this mic too.
174
So this is the place where people said they feel uneasy in.
175
Do you feel uneasy?
176
I feel like you think that both hands work.
177
Let's look around a little.
178
I'm gonna leave that right there.
179
Let me make sure this works.
180
Yep, works.
181
Okay.
182
Okay, um.
183
There's the bathroom.
184
You think I could take a, you think I could take a shit in there?
185
Oh wait.
186
Hello?
187
My light's freaking out.
188
My light's going on and off.
189
Broke.
190
Broke.
191
My light's freaking out, bro.
192
Look at it.
193
It's flickering.
194
Hello?
195
Dude, I'm shaking.
196
Hello?
197
Bro, I gotta figure it out now.
198
Yo!
199
Wait, stop.
200
Dude, I hear something.
201
There's someone 100% in there.
202
There's someone in there.
203
I think so.
204
Dude, I heard of dad's footsteps.
205
We should get in the car.
206
Dude, I'm spooked right now.
207
A part of me does not want to leave, though.
208
If you're just a normal dude, I'd love to say hello to know you're not a ghost trying to kill us.
209
Dude, but how did we look in every room?
210
Bro, that literally could have been feral people.
211
I mean this is a bro thing like this would be the perfect place.
212
There's literally shelter food
213
We now knew for sure something weird was going on But we still didn't know what it was or even get to use the ghost equipment I couldn't leave here without answers So we went to a different abandoned house much further away so we would be safe to try one more time
214
Alright, so I have the music detector.
215
By the way guys, I didn't even show you how it worked Step in front of this.
216
It doesn't work with like wind.
217
Like I placed it in a convenient spot.
218
Ghosts got to walk downstairs to leave.
219
All right, any ghosts here?
220
Ghosts, ghosts, ghosts.
221
There's a lot of people talk about the Appalachian Mountains, say there's all sorts of stuff like feral people or skinwalkers or ghosts.
222
Actually, they say there's ghosts in this house.
223
They say you are a ghost.
224
You might not know that you're ghosts.
225
and I'm sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but you are.
226
But hey, that's not such a bad thing.
227
I mean, you can levitate, I think.
228
Maybe you could help me out and I'll just step on that stair right there.
229
Are there feral people out here?
230
Could you just step in front of that, please?
231
Okay, are there skinwalkers or some sort of flesh creature out here?
232
Could you just step in front of that?
233
Are there any people that live in this house?
234
I heard there were loggers that lived here.
235
Is there something after the man Dustin Fraser?
236
Walk down the damn stairs.
237
Look at this.
238
All you got to do is go.
239
Look.
240
It's that easy.
241
Just don't step on it, please.
242
I watch these ghost videos from tons of YouTubers.
243
Tons.
244
And they all get crazy stuff.
245
Look at this.
246
There's actually hundreds of ghost videos.
247
Oh.
248
Bro stayed on the step.
249
Now he's standing on business.
250
Alright buddy, buddy.
251
You can hop off the step now.
252
This motherfucker won't get on the step, won't get off the step now.
253
Alright, we get it.
254
Yo, the flashlight in your pants just turned on.
255
That's crazy.
256
Hey, don't touch me there, buddy.
257
Bro just grabbed you.
258
For real.
259
This guy's handsy.
260
Oh, that means there's multiple, bro.
261
No way he reached over there from that step.
262
That was kind of crazy.
263
Let me get in there.
264
And it just doesn't want to stop.
265
All right, mate.
266
Are you good?
267
I could have swore I heard something move in the bush.
268
I'm going to the front of the house now.
269
Sam and Colby seem to experience some of the craziest stuff in ghost history.
270
Ghosts, I think, just love them.
271
I think ghosts literally hate me.
272
The only problem is they only collab with people with millions of subscribers.
273
How many subscribers do I have Ethan?
274
Not a million.
275
So I need to get to not a million multiple million.
276
I mean, I'd be really happy with a million.
277
So please subscribe so I can hopefully get in one of their videos.
278
It would mean the world to me.
279
We didn't end up getting any more activity or hearing or seeing anything weird, so we left.
280
And then the next day I saw this video.
281
I am a film student and yes, the videos were for entertainment.
282
So, just wanted to say, for the people who I misled, who don't want to follow me anymore, I understand.
283
I was correct.
284
Dustin was making skits.
285
But as for all the other videos and stories, I have no idea.
286
After learning about feral people, though, I will say I think that's where most of the conspiracies come from.
287
This is a real thing, with many people confirmed missing.
288
And that's probably the best theory out there.
289
As for the whistling, I don't know.
290
Maybe it's all fake.
291
Maybe there's also skinwalkers.
292
Or maybe that's something feral people do.
293
We heard something which I guess could have been a feral person, but it was really weird because my flashlight turned off right as it happened.
294
So what do you guys think?
295
I'd love to hear your opinion.
296
Please subscribe and also follow my Instagram.
297
I post a lot of sneak peeks on there.
298
Help me get to 10k and I'll do something cool.
