Lived just outside of Newport for years. Those roads are terrifying, so many ghosts/ufo sightings, not helped by the stretch of road between Newport and MArket Drayton being a hotspot for deadly vehicle accidents.

[@GregFessia]

In contrast to the current scientific model of the universe, we don't exist in a gravitational universe but an electromagnetic universe. There are four states of matter; gas, liquid, solid and plasma. That light in the sky was a typical plasma ball which is known to move quite easily, flicker on and off and affect electrical equipment like street lights. Many of the ufos that people witness are actually plasma balls because they can change color and break off into smaller ones.

I live near Durango Colorado and used to haul cars down to oil fields in NM and Texas. Seen some really creepy things at night. Weirdest was in the middle of nowhere at 3am in New Mexico and someone standing on the side of the hwy wearing what appeared to be a bee keepers suit. They were staring off into the distance and as I passed, turned to look at me. I didn't know what to make of it. No reason for them to be there. Also, in Colorado I watched a horse run alone the side of the highway and then cross in front of me. It was so strange though because it didn't look real. It was like I was watching something out of a movie. I could see every muscle rippling on the horse and seemed like it was running too fast to be real. Strangely majestic looking is the best way I can describe it. It still gives me chills thinking about it. This happened on ute tribal land in southwest Colorado, also late at night. I'm kind of curious if anyone else has seen something like this with the horse thing. Also, would it be normal for a horse to move like this at night? By itself? With nothing chasing it? I'm getting creeped out now lol

​@@joeg5414 My dad actually has a similar story from around the time he and my mom first got married. They were driving over Cedar Mountain (37.59304877316277, -112.89508706392505) in southern Utah and my mom was asleep. It was late at night, past midnight, and my dad saw something out of the corner of his eye that was a horse shape and white and slightly glowy in the moonlight (but it was a full moon so it could have just been reflecting the moonlight and not actually glowing). Since that area has a lot of turns and a lot of deer he didn't dare take his eyes off the road long enough to actually get a good look at it. He felt like it was a protector spirit of some kind but it did spook him a bit because it stayed with them for whole mile despite him being a chronic speeder and those roads having no shoulder with the forest and hills right up against the asphalt. My mom teases him about seeing a unicorn. At nearly the exact same spot on that road I saw a shadow person materialize in front of the car just after midnight while on a trip with them, nobody else saw it and there was no impact.

[@armadillotoe]

Many decades ago I was in my 20s and home on leave. When I left Amarillo at night to drive back to Omaha I came upon a Cadillac parked in the right lane of the hi-way with both doors open. I have no explanation for the feeling of terror that came over me. I stopped 25-30 yards behind the car. The dome light was on, the engine was running and the headlights were on. I ran several scenarios of what could be going on, but the sense of terror ruled out all reasonable explanations. I drove into the left lane and slowly approached looking into the darkness for some clue or somebody. I was actually shaking when I drove past the Cadillac. I could clearly see the car was empty. I felt I should stop to see if somebody needed help, but I found myself accelerating away as fast as I could. I don't know to this day what that was all about, but I don't believe I have ever been as frightened in my life of anything as I was of that empty car. It has been almost 50 years since that happened and I still think about it.

[@scallopohare9431]

One of the most terrifying dreams I ever had was of some sort of mangy wig / big ball of cotton wool being thrown at me from behind the sofa. But then again that was a dream, all sorts of wierd stuff could go on with your body chemistry to make you scared of something silly. More recently I had a semi-waking dream of a human-sized stick figure in my room. I went back to proper sleep and dreamed of reporting it to paranormal investigators.

For sure! We tend to forget the big reason we domesticated predators like dogs and cats is because they are far more sensitive to certain things than we ever can hope to be. Sounds literally beyond our ears to process may be as loud as marching bands to them. I always give my animal companions my attention when they are giving something out there their attention, because odds are that there is something there to note, even if I am probably much more dangerous to it than it is to me.

True, there is also the opposite. When people notice something but animals dont react at all. Happened about 25 years ago to me, we( me, my mom and a few others + about 5 dogs) were in our summer cottage in the middle of nowhere in lapland when I heard footsteps from just outside the door, they seemed to go on for about 30secs and then suddenly stopped. I asked if the others had heard em and they said yes, the dogs however did not react to these footsteps at all. In comparison when one of the local fellas came for a visit the dogs started barking as soon as they heard his steps and when we explained to him about those odd footsteps he just laughed and said that stuff like that happen around the area.

Great stories, artwork and narration, as always. I know what it is like to walk down a dark road to get home. I remember leaving a party because I couldn’t get a ride home. My journey that night took me from one end of town to the outskirts of town where I lived. I was tired but I kept moving. I walked along a highway and into a heavy fog bank. It was so thick I could barely see a few feet in front of me. There were trucks moving at high speed and passing within a few feet from where I was walking on my left side. On my right side, I could here the sounds of bull frogs and other creatures in the woods. The sound was almost deafening. I kept walking. I happened to look up to the sky and noticed a single star. The fog slowly cleared up and I made it home safely.

Loved all these stories especially the Australian one. I’m living in central Australia in a tiny community 5 hours or so south of Alice Springs. I can safely say there is a lot of beauty here but there is also an incredibly old and almost wise knowing feeling to the land, the outback is definitely a hotspot for the paranormal and spiritual. I’d love to hear more Australian Outback stories on this channel, they always have a certain eeriness to them.

@@DinnerForkTongue my guess is as good as any. The locals speak of dream time creatures “mammu” or “monsters/creatures” They wouldn’t tell us a whole lot due to most of their culture being sacred.

Luckily I wasn’t eaten at any point, lol, but between the lanes in rural England and Wales that I’ve found myself on in the dark, I can definitely get why it would be unnerving… let alone our plethora of paranormal spookiness

Origionally from England, when i was 13yrs old my parents & i went to Australia as my dads company were opening offices there which he was to set up in Sydney, NSW. After about a year i found a penfriend from way up in Queensland & she was Aborigional. After corresponding for quite a while, she invited me up to stay with her & her family during the long school summer holidays. After speaking with her parents my mum & dad let me go to stay & to see that part of the country my parents drove me up there My penfriend, called Jassy & I had a great time & she took me to see the Elders of her town They told us some great stories of myth & legend but also things that haunt the Outback. These stories were really scary & We were told never to be out at dark outside the town, ever as there were entities that would trick us into thinking they were from my friends family & lure us out there but we'd be wrong & we would never be seen again. They told of drivers on roads thereabouts & at night who came across some terrible things Subhuman things, like man type Dingo's or as we'd term today as Dogmen. These creatures would tear someone limb from limb & eat them. Also the evil Kangaroo devil trapping anyone out alone during the night time. Then there were things that had been around since before the Aboriginies lived on the land To me they sounded like Goblins About 4ft tall but squat, hairy & very ugly & they were strong & killed livestock & people with their bare hands. The elders also described things from swampy areas like dinosaurs, An other creature called the Bunyip & tall wraith like things that took away a persons mind so that they walked about like a zombie until they killed themselves or walked out into the Bush & were never found There is a wealth of Aborigional myth & legend but of the things i heard from the Elders that were extremely unsettling & scary & had happened to people from their town over the years. Thank you Bedtime Stories i love your channel 🇬🇧👧🕊

So happy to get another story before bedtime tonight.

You guys are really on the top of your game. I hope you never get tired of your fans telling you that.

I drive for Greyhound for years and I have to say I've never seen nothing paranormal. But what I can say is since I'm driving at an elevated position. I seen drivers below me doing some pretty strange things.

[@weltonvillegal6258]

Yeah don’t share. My imagination is probably not far off…….🤣

[@chadp363]

......do go on........ Maybe because you're already on a greyhound bus, it's hard to notice anything stranger than some of your passengers

[@Quadrenaro]

Many years ago my Aunt and Uncle were driving home on a dark country road in Florida. They hadn't realized they missed their turn a few miles back and continued west on Hwy 70 towards DeSoto County. They passed an old man walking alone and found that really odd, given how far from anywhere they were. A few miles later they realizing they had missed their turn. My Uncle John did a U-turn and head back. About a mile after their turn around, he noticed a bright light coming up the road. He thought it was a car until it flew over them at high speeds. It made no sound. Unnerved, they continued and were going to ask the old man they saw if he'd seen that light. He was gone. They found their turn. The 3-way intersection was lite by a street lamp that was off when they went by before.

[@amichalap]

spectacular animation for the Kuntilinak story. especially the creature changing.

[@ivanjosephmurray605]

Absolutely one of your best episodes ever guys and there have been many excellent ones. Well done. I can't believe how long the list of financial contributors is, thought it would never end! Greetings from Ireland, plenty of scary stories etc from here that you guys could look into/do an episode on. 👊

[@livea3596]

Your channel is fab. Been binging on these while sick with COVID. Gotta love when an entity scares your fur babies into getting along.

[@borleyboo5613]

Brilliant and deliciously scary. Just the thing for Halloween. The last one was very creepy with a very sad outcome. God knows what scared that young man so badly. And frankly, I’d rather NOT know.

[@DinnerForkTongue]

If I saw that thing I'd pray FERVENTLY for an angel to guard my sorry ass. Biblically accurate angel too, with all the scary shapes and eyes for days.

[@remywolfgang792]

Excellent show guys. That last story was creepy as heck and the way you edit the ending was just awesome.

That "deer" was terrifying.

I love the HWoH series. They scare me out of my whole butt. However, the Emily and Lewis story was truly heart-chilling...tragic. Thanks for more!

Out of all the series in BTS i do agree that the HWoH series is criminally underrated

I so look forward to these new stories, frequently go back to the start & watch them to fall asleep! Thank you, love the stories & appreciate the work involved in the illustrations & behind the scenes. XXX

[@neobogard]

This is was great episode and one of the best for a long time. This channel is at its best when making content about the paranormal far more so than the unsolved mysteries and disappearances. I especial liked the story of the kuntilanak. That one was genuinely terrifying.

[@chasesimons3579]

Was waiting for the Halloween special. Late night bed time story is always a plus. Thanks for posting

I just get so excited when a new episode drops!! I'm like a little kid in a candy shop. Lol. Great episode guys!!

[@devinscott8680]

My lord the vampire story was unnerving, the art was perfect, especially her waving to the guy as he sped down the road.

[@xerxies8947]

There sure are a lot of horrifying experiences that folks will just say "yeah must be the deer", and I say this from experience from living in the midwest of the USA. You see any weird shit and it's either a deer or a raccoon, and you try to carry on and not think any harder about it.

[@nicholaslienandjaja1815]

Would like to see a future episode on the Not Deer.

[@ald1144]

Getting on Google Earth and going to Streetview, you can easily see what the actual location looks like. Seriously excellent job with the artwork.

[@SuperDiablo101]

BTS yet again never fails to keep us on our toes and our faces locked into the screen with their content however the ending of the last story disturbs me not only because of the suicide but because whatever creature that poor man saw almost seemed as if it was the creatures intent for him to commit suicide like a self fulfilling omen of evil

[@whateverchannel22]

These stories are beautifully written, with narration of equal quality. Excellently done, mate.

[@RelativelyBest]

I like how that second one was just a ghost hitching a ride.

I love this channel, i recommend this to anybody i know that's into the paranormal and they always end up subscribing

[@Tree-beard]

About 20 years ago, I pulled onto the M42 motorway heading South from the A5 in the middle of a relatively sunny weekday afternoon. It's usually an extremely busy stretch of Motorway, after about a minute I noticed..... there was no one else there. Not one other car. Not infront, not in the rear view. From horizon to horizon..... nothing. Odd. Then realised..... there was nothing on the Northbound carriageway either. Not a single car. It started to feel really REALLY weird. Then realised there was nothing on the overpasses either (this was not SO unusual) this went on for mile after mile, minute after minute until I started to become a little disconcerted. Usually the distance between junctions is no more than 20 minutes, but I felt like it took twice that before the next junction was signposted, the road just seemed to roll on, strangely empty into the infinite. As soon as the sign for an impending junction came round, the skies quickly darkened and it started raining like hell. Only then, seemingly inbetween swipes of rapidly moving wiper blades did I thankfully see the red tailights of other cars, that just seemed to appear. Now, the whole thing could of just been one of those funny little coincidences. I found a quiet spot. But it certainly didn't FEEL like it. Felt like I was somewhere.... else, just for a little while. Roads are strange places.

@@chonkycharlie Could have been a large species of lizard, the Komodo dragon lives comparatively close to Australia. It has black eyes and can walk on its hind legs, has a nasty set of gashers too. Seeing something unexpected like a large lizard in low light conditions, travelling too fast to focus and heavily fatigued would certainly leave you wondering what on earth you have just seen.

@@Socialistcheese111 totally! Though they cant sustain walking on their hind legs for that long its still a possibility

Excellent episode, IMHO one of your very best and your channel is certainly among my top favorites. It was a great episode in fact with some unforgettable segments. Great, that is, until the final segment; that one made this episode EPIC. Holy *** that thing is utterly horrifying and I cannot fathom what something like that could be other than some terrifying unclean spirit, dark harbinger or demon.
