25 TRUE Skinwalker and Cryptid Stories | COMPILATION | Raven Reads

A compilation of some of the creepiest cryptids we've encountered.
Also, Mortis Media invited me back on his channel this week. We narrated some super creepy haunted house stories. Here it is if you want to check it out. :)

I mentioned Peter Draws' narrations of The Color out of Space and The Metamorphosis in my outtro. He has a very good narration voice, even though he's primarily an art channel, and his art is awesome. He's overall a quirky, cool dude so you should check him out. I don't know him/am not affiliated with him or anything, I just like to share folks whose work I appreciate. :)

I must say, I accidentally came across your channel last week...and I'm totally hooked. I have always felt that there are other supernatural beings around us..some you would not want to come in contact with..as the skinwalkers. Thank you for bringing so many peoples experiences to life as you do...and hopefully it will truly open some peoples eyes. I never doubt that nothing is impossible.

[@TheBaconStrip]

I'm so glad I found your channel. I listened to you on Mortis Media earlier. With a soothing voice and a calming effect makes it easy to listen and visualize the story.

[@spookymama75]

A few facts for ya:) there is only one way to slay a skin-walker. You have to have a special sort of knife and you have to be a Healer. Though there aren’t that many Healers around anymore, they are kind of like Witch-Doctors. I am a Witch-Doctor so I may be able to slay them but i do not know much about the knife. I have a book on how to make em but its like impossible. Second fact is most of them live in Utah, at Skin-Walker Ranch, also known as Sherman Ranch. Third fact is that all of the stories about “fighting” skin-walkers are fake. It is literally impossible to fight a skin-walker without dying, like immediately. Again, the only way to slay them is with that knife and a Healer. Number four: if you ever find a random bell in the forest do not ring it. It will alert all skin-walkers in that area where you are. If you hear the bell ringing behind you in the forest, that is a skin-walker alerting other skin-walkers where you are. Number five: do not whistle at night because it attracts skin-walkers. ESPECIALLY not in the forest. Number six: Skin-walkers are demonic or fallen witches. Number seven: do not say the word w3nd1g0s out loud, it attracts them. Wendiboys are very much different than Dog men and skin-walkers but they have the same interests. Number seven: I myself have seen a skin walker while in a car, they look like a deer-monkey crouched human with strange legs that bend backwards. they don’t have much hair and are very skinny, and can run VERY fast. Stay safe out there. I hope this helps someone!

[@stechapo4009]
