0:01
Hidden within rural Utah. There's a place that Harbors,
0:04
many Secrets, this arid land is considered a hot spot for a wide
0:10
variety of strange and terrifying.
0:12
Activity some consider a cursed While others consider it to be
0:17
haunted. Today we will be discussing the
0:20
mystery of Skinwalker Ranch here on mystery archives.
0:46
Before we dive into the history of Skinwalker Ranch, I first
0:49
want to inform you as to what a skinwalker is according to
0:54
Navajo Legend a skinwalker is a medicine man or which which is
0:58
attained the highest priesthood of the tribe but one that has
1:02
chosen to use their power for evil.
1:06
They are typically known for shape-shifting to inflict pain
1:10
and suffering upon others and to become a Skinwalker requires.
1:15
One of the most devious Deeds, the murder of a close family
1:19
member or loved one. Once this is accomplished, The
1:24
Pact is made. And the priest now gains
1:26
Supernatural power beyond their wildest imagination with it.
1:30
They're typically known for shape-shifting into both animals
1:34
and other people to suit their nefarious.
1:37
They are also still incredibly feared to this day as they were
1:40
in the past particularly by the Navajo, people who refuse to
1:45
call them by their native name, for fear of Retribution.
1:49
Just speaking about could put you in danger, Terry and Gwen
1:55
Sherman. Were just your average cattle
1:57
Farmers. That was until they purchased
2:00
five hundred and twelve Acres. Southeast of Ballard Utah.
2:05
What followed was a series of disturbing events that would
2:08
change them forever. It began with a strange
2:12
encounter with a wolf on their property.
2:15
They saw this wolf attempting to eat one of their calves.
2:18
So Terry shot the creature several times but yet it wasn't
2:22
mortally wounded. It simply looked at him and
2:25
began to slowly walk away. Then the real activity started
2:31
with in seemingly no time at all the Sherman's began to see what
2:35
could only be described as UFOs above their property.
2:39
These range from small circular and cigar-shaped craft to craft
2:43
supposedly the size. Football stadium.
2:46
They would also describe portals that would open in the sky, and
2:50
that these ships or craft would move in and out of that insane
2:55
speeds shortly after the experience of started, many of
2:59
their livestock began to be mutilated and although this is
3:02
odd in and of itself, the animals would be found in
3:06
strange locations around the property and stranger still.
3:09
They would be completely drained of blood and upon further study,
3:14
the Asians found on the animals bodies.
3:17
Could have only been made with a laser type tool because the
3:20
lacerations were burned into the animals with Incredible
3:24
Precision. Other livestock would vanish
3:27
altogether with no traces to where they could have gone.
3:31
And some would be found and utterly bizarre places in one
3:36
instance, a cow went missing and hoof marks were found leading up
3:39
the side of the barn as if the animal had walked or have been
3:43
dragged up the side of the barn, Beyond this particular cow was
3:47
never seen again. And in another instance, a calf
3:51
which had just been let into its pain, seemingly disappeared only
3:55
to be found, 15 minutes later and the top loft of the barn
3:59
startled but otherwise safe with no explanation as to how the
4:04
massive animal could have gotten there on its own.
4:08
When you hear about aliens beaming of cows of all things,
4:11
it's easy to laugh at all. However the There's predicament
4:15
that the schurmann family found themselves in was no laughing
4:19
matter by 1996 for of the family's prized cows, an
4:23
important part of their income vanished Into Thin Air.
4:27
Another three were found mutilated in various ways.
4:30
When Terry Sherman asked other ranchers about the insanity,
4:34
they confirm that their own cattle had been mutilated in the
4:37
past and that the local authorities hadn't been able to
4:40
help the Sherman's also began to describe their experiences with
4:45
Often invisible entities, they called the beings these beings
4:49
would often play tricks on the family, such as Miss placing
4:52
items, locking doors, in moving, livestock, but what started out,
4:57
as seemingly harmless Behavior soon escalated, they began to
5:01
torment the family, not only through cattle mutilation, but
5:05
they also began to visibly make themselves seen on rare occasion
5:09
and would attempt to get into the house, causing the family.
5:13
Immense distress. Finally, in 1998, the family had
5:20
had enough. They decided to put the ranch up
5:23
for sale for a fraction of what they had.
5:25
Originally paid for a billionaire by the name of
5:28
Robert Bigelow, who was also the chairman of the National
5:32
Institute of Discovery science or in ideas have been in contact
5:37
with the Sherman's for years prior in an effort to try and
5:40
understand just what was taking place on their land after they
5:44
reached out to the end ideas for help when the property went For
5:47
sale he quickly stepped in and purchased it.
5:51
A team of researchers. In a plethora of scientific
5:54
surveillance equipment was promptly brought in and the
5:57
ranch was unofficially renamed, Skinwalker Ranch and honor of
6:01
the native peoples who had been studying these beings for
6:04
centuries. The National Institute for
6:06
Discovery Science, although mostly focused on fringe science
6:10
is actually far from unscientific their roster.
6:14
Boasts many researchers with phds ex-military, Arie
6:17
backgrounds and X NASA Personnel among their Consultants.
6:21
I say this because everything in the video from here, on out is
6:25
going to be very unbelievable. There is a specific but
6:32
unassuming spot on Skinwalker Ranch where some uniquely
6:35
terrifying. Things have happened in this
6:39
spot. A researcher was assaulted by a
6:41
creature that he said blended in with the surroundings, rendering
6:45
it almost invisible. Seriously the creature didn't
6:49
hide from the crew once it was spotted it continued to Roar and
6:53
posture towards them until it vanished close to the same spot.
6:58
Another team of researchers witnessed.
7:00
What could only be described as a portable or blowing door being
7:04
opened in a field in the large humanoid creature, that came
7:07
forth from the poor spotted, the researchers, and then quickly
7:11
disappeared as it. Rushed back into the portal
7:14
before it closed. And yet another instance near
7:18
the hotbed of activity, a doctor of physics was suddenly held
7:22
motionless against his will by an invisible force and his
7:27
accounts of the episode. He said and I quote numerous
7:31
entities had invaded my mind while I was being held still and
7:35
communicated to me a single message that I and other members
7:39
of my species were not welcome. Well, this particular spot may
7:45
have been the epicenter for activity on Skinwalker Ranch.
7:49
The activity itself is not entirely confined to the ranch.
7:56
Junior Hicks. A retired school teacher from
7:59
the local area has been cataloging these strange
8:01
happenings for many years. These happenings include over
8:05
400 UFO sightings with photo evidence by Hicks estimate, at
8:11
least 50,000 people in the area have been witness to one
8:14
phenomena or another including law enforcement and other
8:18
reputable members of the community.
8:21
The UFO activity really began to pick up in the 1950s.
8:24
According to Higgs, there were several cases where the entire
8:28
school including the teachers saw things, hover around town in
8:32
broad daylight and in the 1960s and 70s.
8:36
We probably had more UFO sightings than anywhere else in
8:39
the world. Some other noteworthy sightings
8:45
on and around, Skinwalker Ranch have been a plethora of strange.
8:48
Animals have been seen wandering as if lost descriptions of these
8:53
many creatures include an extremely large wolf with one
8:57
eye that walks upright a large and hairy man or bear type
9:02
creature and a creature, that's about the size of a football
9:06
with butterfly wings, but it's wings are entirely reptilian in
9:10
nature. It's easy to argue that.
9:15
There should be hundreds of photos of these incidents taking
9:18
place and to some degree, there are but the bulk of the activity
9:22
happened between the 1950s and 70s aside from the Sherman's
9:27
experiences. And the technology capable of
9:30
capturing photos was not as easily available or widespread
9:34
at the time, although the National Institute for Discovery
9:37
Science was able to document some tremendous activity on the
9:41
land, the happenings grew further and Far between they
9:45
became so scarce, in fact that in 2004 Robert Bigelow close
9:49
down the nids due to a lack of Fringe activity to study and
9:54
subsequently sold the ranch. However, during the time of the
9:58
Skinwalker Ranch studies, the nids had a prevailing Theory as
10:03
to. What was taking place there that
10:05
all occurrences were the activists single precognitive
10:08
intelligence, the leading researcher at the time
10:11
explained, it's not as simple as saying ETS and flying saucers
10:16
are doing it. But rather it's some kind of
10:19
Consciousness. It's always something new and
10:22
something unrepeatable and different it's reactive to
10:25
people and equipment and we've set up the ranch to be a Proving
10:28
Ground for the scientific method but science doesn't seem to
10:32
provide the answers in which we seek.
10:36
This was unfortunately the best theory we have as to what could
10:39
have really caused the activity on Skinwalker Ranch and that
10:43
each event. Too far unique and unlike the
10:45
previous to be repeated on a consistent basis without Robert
10:50
Bigelow. Being able to scientifically
10:52
accredit the site due to the phenomena being too irregular to
10:56
repeat and study. He sold the ranch to a company
10:59
called adamantium Holdings for four and a half million dollars
11:03
in 2016. Nevertheless the research on
11:06
Skinwalker Ranch continues to this day and is more
11:09
sophisticated and secretive than ever before since since
11:13
adamantium Holdings purchase the ranch they installed
11:17
surveillance equipment all over the property including high-tech
11:20
cameras, alarm systems infrared, technology and more.
11:24
The property is also routinely patrolled by armed security
11:28
guards at all times. So please don't even think about
11:31
going there for any reason. What's also strange is that upon
11:35
further digging into adamantium Holdings.
11:38
I couldn't find any more additional information on them
11:41
as a company which would lead me to believe that.
11:43
Some sort of a funnel or front company or company within a
11:47
company for either the government or someone who has
11:50
something to hide. But who knows at this point with
11:54
all that being said, what do you guys think was causing the
11:57
activity and Skinwalker Ranch? I for one think anything is
12:01
possible. The most plausible explanation
12:03
to me is that there's some kind of Supernatural force or doorway
12:07
that has allowed some kind of creature, perhaps one not of
12:10
this world to enter ours and do as they please.
12:13
