Just a tip, coming from an old soldier. When you solo camp in a forest take some 2mm para cord and run it around the trees surrounding your site, do this at knee height. If needs be attach some tins to rattle if the cord is disturbed. Great video.

I live about 50 meters from a forest, right beneath the ruins of a medieval castle with a very eerie history. There are also tales of a lady in white, although I'm not really spooked by paranormal stories. I love taking overnight trips there. One night, around 2 am, I was woken by my dog, who was going absolutely bonkers. I heard something screaming-it sounded like a woman or a child being murdered, with absolutely crazy screams. Of course, I was scared shitless, but I decided to check it out and possibly help. I only had a knife with me for protection. When I arrived at the source of the sound, I realized it was a deer caught in a fence. As soon as the deer realized I was there to help, it stopped screaming and looked at me peacefully while I worked to free its leg. My dog also stopped barking, and in that moment, everything felt so peaceful. In the end, I managed to free the deer, and it calmly walked away. What started as a terrifying situation turned into one of the most beautiful moments of my life.

I'm a birder, and I've gone on night hikes to go owling, for example, and that certainly seems like an ideal spot to be doing such a thing!

@@niqa246 Haha, I did that two weeks ago, while owling in the mountains. Okay, it was only 45km from the nearest town. I didn't have any hiking gear, but I did carry my phone to record owl sounds. Among other night birds, I got Northern Saw-whet Owl, which I hadn't heard in that area before. It is also in the extremely isolated areas of that mountain range that a birder has a chance hearing or seeing the extremely rare, extremely desired Northern Spotted Owl. They only live in the most remote, untouched and ancient parts of forest, and that kind of thing attracts birders. At night. I'm not saying it's always going to be innocent, just that there ARE innocent reasons people are out and about in the dark in remote locations. As I said, it's the scariest thing I could hear in the woods, and my mind would always go to "serial killer" but when I'm thinking about it rationally once I'm home again, I realize that there were many reasons someone would be out there... just like me. In my four decades of camping, hiking, and birding, I've had a few weird encounters with people. Some were scary, but thankfully I've never been hurt by any humans while out in the wilderness. They were always in the front country, or at least on popular trails, rather than the backcountry.

Ahhhhhh ! From a female retired lone camper- to a much younger new one ! I camped alone all over the world in the early 90s, climbed up into some woods with my Djembe drum on the Island of La Palma in the Canary Islands, ‘‘twas an ancient wood called Los Tilos wood where prehistoric ferns still grow, La Palma is a protected Biosphere, and you may know it from the recent volcano eruption there. Anyway I reached the beautiful camping spot, which had a few local Spanish people cooking out on huge stone barbecue grates built beautifully into the huge rocks and a smaller cave covered with the greenest moss I had ever the delight to see. As the sun went down, every single person left, I was really happy built my fire filled my stomach , and sat down in front of my fire tv and played my djembe drum. I had never before experienced such a sudden change in energy and sound in the woods anywhere in my life. Suddenly it was pitch black and not a single sound could be heard, all the birds, seagulls , and moving brush sounds of nature came to an eerie abrupt, as if ordered, end. Not a single sound, I felt a sudden urgent need to put my fire out jump in my tent zip it up, and get the hell to sleep. I was that hard 😅 I had never felt afraid camping alone, not ever. Not even on uninhabited ( by humans at least) Islands. As I climbed into my green maggot, for no reason I found myself struck by a real sense my life was in imminent danger and I was frozen in literal terror, there was only one sound the sound of approaching heavy small feet, as the four or five- of whatever they were - drew closer and closer to my tent ( how? No moon and I couldn’t even see my hand in front of my face) were they walking across a steep 100ft ravine, down a path whilst talking in these incessant terrifying whispered voices, surrounding my tent , stepping around and around endlessly with their small feet , as if they were discussing what they were going to do with me!. I stopped breathing lest they heard me, whilst hot tears rolled silently down my cheeks, I was trapped sitting bolt upright !Glacier! frozen in terror. I sat like this for what seemed an eternity, until it was as if they lost interest in me the tent or the drum; they moved off some 30 ft away behind me still whispering menacingly the only thing I was sure of was that they were pint sized little people with voices; I remembered the back shaped rock that I had been playing my Djembe on, (So dam loudly) I made another horrendously loud zipping noise, darted for that rock in the blackness, and dug till my fingers were bleeding faster than Bolt can run 100 meters, I had curled into a foetus position with my back against that rock, and covered my body and face with dirt and leafs and small pieces of dried twig. I laid there with my hand over my mouth and nose and very strangely fell straight to sleep for what seemed like five minutes, the breaking sunlight through the ancient forest trees awoke me, and the sound of nature so beautiful all around me. I was alive ! I , to this day, will never forget this experience nor ever understand it, save for, when I reached the village of Los Sources’ for coffee, on asking an old Spanish man about the woods, he replied “ You look like you have met the little ones, with a big grin on his face, as he took another puff on his cigarillo ; did you sleep in Los Tilos haunted wood in the night”? “Crazy English girl” still laughing he assured me no one ever sleeps up there who is an Islander. This is a true story, you are the third person I have ever recounted this too in my life, one of the other persons being an African Shaman, Yosuila smiled and simply said with a glint of sunshine in his eye, “ digging that dirt and covering yourself with it was the best thing You could have ever done”. Thank you for sharing your night with us on KZbin where you were also unaware of where you had found yourself, You were very brave staying the next night too ! look what I remembered because of you, I look back at that night now with wonder and awe , very contented , with not knowing.

If anything, camping in the USA or Canada sounds way more dangerous! You guys have bears there that can rip open a tent, we don't have any large carnivorous land animals like that.

Anyone willing to approach and attack a campsite will do so expecting it to be a man camping within, as well over 90% of the time it would be a man camping alone by themselves in the woods. This means the attacker doesn't give a stuff whether you're male or female. This isn't about some woman walking home at night from the clubs.

I was once fly fishing in the boondocks of Yellowstone; where no one else goes, about 2 1/2 hours hike off the main road...in Grizzly bear country. I was having such a good time I lost track of time and knew I would never make it back before dark. So I quickly built a fire and spent the entire night out there by myself. It's amazing what you think of at 2 a.m. when you are all by yourself out in the wilderness.

[@pauljefferies2091]

About a year ago my sons and I went winter camping in a very remote part of Washington State. This area is so remote that we had to hike 5 miles from our rig to get to our camp spot. We like it because in fifteen years we have never seen another person there. Anyway, we ate dinner and went to bed. At around midnight I heard someone calling my name from the canyon next to us. To make thing even more weird it sounded like my grandfathers voice! Then this voice started calling the names of my kids but in the voice of my wife! It circled the camp at a pretty good distance for about a half hour and then left. Soon as light came we left as well. We never went back there.

[@StrayCatInTheStreets]

The tips you have been given around using a tripwire with cans (paracord etc) are excellent. I have done this many times. I would add if you are in an exceptionally remote area or are alone and not quite comfortable I would suggest some extra steps (be mindful these can be considered a little bit much) 1) Place your trip wire/ paracord around 15-30 cm above the ground attached to trees. Place the cans on the ground with some pebbles in them (for extra noise) and attach them with a string to the tripwire. This will stop the wind from moving them but will still make them move if someone hits the wire. Don't make your tripwire too taught or too loose and make sure you spread the cans around 2 meters apart. 2) Just inside the perimeter, on 3 sides (the sides facing the back and sides of the tent or in your case on the foot, head and one side of the hammock/tarp setup) about 20-30 centimeters from the perimeter wire in you can dig a small trench of around 20cm deep and 30cm wide. The tripwire should scare animals away, the trench can cause an intruder to trip given you much more time to react. You can place little mounds of twigs around the campsite to also give extra noise alerting. The trenches can be dangerous, but if someone has gotten over your trip wires and noise alerts while not announcing themselves, the trenches are fair game. This depth is sufficient to be noticeable and create a significant obstacle, but it should still be shallow enough to avoid causing serious injury. A wider trench will be more effective in making it difficult for someone to cross, as it will be more noticeable and force them to adjust their path. You can place some camouflage branches over them if you want but this is not necessary 3) On the side that doesn't have a trench (if in a tent, the one with your tent door or hammock the side that faces inside the camp). You should place natural or artificial camouflage to create the appearance of a barrier. This can confuse or deter intruders and may make them more cautious about approaching the open side. Use light branches with twigs, don't stack it too high or make it dense, so you can run over it. In the dark it may look more dense and force intruders to the other 3 sides but still allow you to escape. This acts as an improvised barrier that can be easily removed or stepped over if needed. This can provide an extra layer of defense without significantly impacting your escape route. 4) High Lumen Emergency Flashlight - You should have a flashlight that delivers exceptionally high lumens and can effectively illuminate and potentially blind an intruder. Some models such as the Acebeam X80-GT have settings for different lumens including one that is 25,000 lumens and a range of 300 metres. It can blind intruders and will scare off most if not all animals. It has a flashing mode that can disorientate intruders or animals too. Yeah it costs 500 bucks but it's amazing. Works good as an emergency search light too. Wouldn't use it for anything other than an emergency or for alerting. In the morning, make sure to cover in the trenches with soil , scatter the twig mounds and make sure that the temporary barrier is destroyed.

I agree, that was very brave to stay another night indeed. I wonder if they (the ghosts) didn't mind Lou's playing as it was great and maybe they could've thought that she's not there to bother them so they didn't bother her the second night - the first night might have been curiosity on their behalf, who knows.

[@pavlovsdogman]

I solo camp in Australia and one night I swear I saw a ghost but that was nowhere near as freaky as the three times I had weird people just approach my camp in the middle of the night! One turned out to be a lost hiker desperate for some help which was cool but the other two times were creepy! Luckily I was awake and had a roaring fire going both times. One time a guy with a cowboy hat and a clearly visible hunting knife just slowly approached my camp at 2am with no sound or torch? He acted as if I couldn't see him? When he got within fifty feet I shouted "hey there" but he said nothing and kept approaching at the same rate so I stood up and grabbed my machete which I pointed at him. He stopped slowly turned around and just walked away at the same rate he arrived at, very creepy Wolf Creek vibes! Didn't sleep that night and left at dawn. The second time it was just as I was getting into my tent, luckily the fire was still going and I had placed dry twigs and leaves around my campsite, after I got in my tent I heard twigs breaking and leaves being crushed by footsteps but they were coming from two different sources? I grabbed my machete again and some pepper spray I bought online and jumped out the tent and turned on my headlamp, I couldn't see who it was but I could hear them stopping still and I could see a human shape behind a tree crouching down about 30 feet away, I just barked out in my deepest voice "you come any closer and I'll cut your throat!". I heard one set of footfalls slowly retreat while I watched the shape of the other one walk backwards into the bush and out of sight. I was terrified and if they had guns or if they were braver I might have ended up a missing person lost in the bush forever? I now have my German Shepherd as my camping buddy and nothing weird had happened with him around! The ghost encounter was kinda cool and unusual compared to the terror of some unknown psycho watching me from the deep bush! Always take some sort of weapon, be it a knife, a dog, a hatchet or a machete. You'll probably need it for wood chopping, cooking, cutting rope etc anyway 🤷

Hi Louise, another great video, i never used to believe in ghosts either until I lived in a 500 year old cottage in a village in Essex (Great Yeldham) many years ago, so many strange things happened there including our dog just standing at the foot of the stairs looking up and barking at nothng and my wife (at the time) her 5 year old nephew refusing to go up stairs for a wee before they left after a visit saying "the man said he would push me down if I come up stairs," things moving from one room to another, Im getting goosebumps just remembering this stuff. We ended up selling up and moving because of it, a few months later we found out the couple who bought it off us sold up too because of the strange things that also happened to them.

Very entertaining. Those noises really did sound like footsteps. The thought of someone wandering around your tent when you are sleeping is way more disturbing than the thought of ghosts. That tree stump with the face reminds me of when I was about 12 yrs old and my mate lived on the other side of the local park. To get home I had to go through that park. There was a narrow path with a tree stump on a hill which the path passed. At night that stump looked like someone crouching ready to pounce. It didn’t matter that I knew exactly what it was, I always legged it past that tree stump at night. Daft really.

it's amazing how the thin fabric wall of a tent can actually make you feel safer. i've felt this many times. too scared to get out and look. You're quite brave to have stayed the second night! I will say, though - the footsteps did not come along with a light. so if it WAS a living human... did they have nightvision? not something most nefarious opportunistic people would carry. It's odd that there was no light. Even if they know the woods super well, if there's no moonlight it'd be difficult to get around and walk with such assured footsteps. Do you have large toads there? I once had a toad crash through my campsite and was CERTAIN it was a BEAR! haha

[@PHUCKyoutube689]

I personally think this was staged but I fish at night in the desert and don't use a light due to it spooking the fish in the shallow canals. Once your eyes adjust to the dark you don't really need a flashlight. I can bait a hook and have even tied on a few hooks in the dark. It also depends on the moon that night. A little moon light goes a long way.

The dark, in the woods, alone can sometimes play with your head - even for a seasoned camper/bushman. It's highly unlikely it was a human walking in the woods at night. After all, they would likely need a flashlight to see where they are walking especially considering your camp was not emitting light, or else they would be making far more noise than merely the sound of footsteps while they stumbled through the woods. You're much more likely to encounter trouble during the daylight.

[@Skelath]

Shiey goes on night hikes all the time to abandoned places, especially during his two trips into the chernobyl exclusion zone. And yes when he got to Pripyat he heard tons of weird noises and footsteps everywhere. Why? Cause tons of explorers, aka stalkers explore the place on the daily, even during the night an entire group of stalkers stumbled into their abandoned hotel room. There is an entire community of night hikers, some hiking with no torches and relying on moonlight. Should also note that night vision exists.

The footsteps were not indicative of a wild animal, as they were repetitious and with rhythm, wild animals do not do this unless they are spooked and running away.

[@santadavid3320]

OMG. I was horrified!!! Ketchup on steak?!!! Nothing is more frightening than that!!!

[@carlam3194]

Very cool, very British looking woods.. beautiful and you’re too funny! I think you actually calmed the woods by talking about their hauntingness😀

[@yayaglass]

Wow, SO brave! I agree that it was a person, could even have been a local who saw you drive in, just messing with you. Animal steps have a 1-2 cadence, step-step, step-step, 4 legs. A person, unless hopping like a woodland Sprite, not, lol. That's a funny visual (add the tutu) for outside your tent at night, lol. For camping in spots like this, I'd suggest putting up an infrared camera, wide angle covering the camp. You could get some really cool shots of critters that wander into camp. Love to you both, and to the fur babies.

[@campervibe]

Yeah you could actually 😀

[@lizusedon9237]

Great filming Quite uncomfortable to watch as scared for you! I kept looking in the background when you were talking to us and imagining someone was going to appear!🫣 You are one very brave woman! I wouldn’t of attempted it for anything! 😱 Well done you 🙌💪🏻

[@jow6845]

me too! kept thinking I was going to spot something before she saw it 😵‍💫

[@cathywarriner]

I love your playing it was very soothing! You're video scared me, definitely footsteps, yup that's when you wish you had the power to make the sun rise 😂

[@devoloid]

It's usually deer 🦌 always sounds like a lost bunch of old croaks trying to locate route at night (yep me 😁.) Thing is.. deer are just curious at night. Great vid again 👌

[@danielbast352]

There’s just nothing better in the world than days , weeks and even months alone in the woods.. my heart aches every time I’m not there

Hi from Australia I just read your comment and Thought you might like to look at my set up, Australian locations such as Fraser Island and camp cook ups. Cheers Out There Touring

[@ibizenco]

Yeah, alone in the woods, with 14 ghosts in the area. Coudn't get any better. 🙂

[@RavenousMedicine]

Wow, this was fun to watch! I like that you didn't make the video all about the ghosts, as creepy as that would be to find out in the middle of your stay. To just go out and exist for a night or two in the woods is an adventure in itself. I definitely would have lost my grip and gotten out of there by the 2nd night, lol.

Just discovered this channel just now. I could listen to you talk all day! Subscribed! 🤙🏻

[@xhogun8578]

Great video, so glad that you stayed a second night. Just heading out to walk my dogs in the forest, everyone always tells me I am mad. But I love walking in the woods at night.

[@campervibe]

I love the woods but I am not about the nighttime in there, you and Lou are braver than me 😆

[@barbarawiddowson635]

Now it's going to be the most haunted woods with the melodic sound of strings being played! You're certainly braver than I am Louise.

[@dorothysuenkel8933]

I've never heard crows like that in the middle of the night and I've lived in the country most of my life. You are a lot braver than I am. Stay safe.

[@jogrant3851]

That's what I thought. They were upset all right.

[@hArtyTruffle]

As soon as I saw Pluckley, I was like… she ain’t gonna sleep well. Great to see your woodcamp skills ✨🫶🏻✨

[@THEDOGHOUSECUSTOMMOTORCYCLES]

I would of been out that tent like I was shot out of a canon swinging that axe 😂Last summer I was riding back through the Peak District in the middle of the night and stopped on a small road passing through woods, it was pitch black and totally silent till i started hearing what sounded like several people whispering, I tried to make out what they was saying but couldn't quite work it out, soon as i turned the ignition and my lights came on it immediately stopped, It sounded quite close but I couldn't see anyone with my lights on.

[@campervibe]

That’s pretty weird as well

[@zzmike]

I got vicarious goodbumps at a few points, I have to admit. Those noises you captured were pretty . .. er . .. UNSETTLING. Great video!

[@IulianMateiciuc]

Thank you that you had the courage to stay in the woods for me and everybody who didn’t wore enough healed to do this.❤🤗You wore brave and helped us without knowing.

[@natalieclarke1540]

Louise you're so brave, it was like watching a horror moving listening to those footsteps. I would not have camped there a second night. Would Emily have camped out there on her own? Loved the video 30 mins went by so fast!

[@campervibe]

No I would not and definitely not after seeing this 😂

[@heatherangellight8558]
