I have never heard of a couch potato being abducted, so I should be fine.

No, usually TV and Internet monsters get dibs on those.

Yeah, as soon as I heard the "..hello" I was already suspicious.

Hell naw, mad sus, and you bet I'm leaving with my friend for help. You lasted this long alone, you can wait another hour!!

That "Peek-A-BOO" freaked me out!

[@NicoleChorney]

I've had a rough week already and this was just what I needed. Thinking about the question of what ghosts could walk up a wall with such distended proportions made me think about the video game Fatale Frame. It was a Japanese import and the Player was fighting off all sorts of ghosts in a VERY haunted house. We spent some nights watching our other friends playing games in college and I was surrounded by 4 of my big tough guy friends and my boyfriend for this one. We were all scared witless, but my BF and I at least had someone to hide with during the really bad parts.

[@LighthouseHorror]

Hope you have a better weekend Nicole 👊

[@DrawMorQuest]

You have spoiled us completely with your uploads. I noticed that every evening I start looking at the clock when it gets closer to the time you usually upload your videos. Not sure what I would do without them in the evenings. It's my favorite time of day.

[@GrimbolTheDruid]

It’s funny he mentions Alaska because I’ve driven through Cantwell, AK and stopped at the rest stop many times in my life. It’s basically a gas station and another building or two maybe but that’s it. I’ve never heard of the cliffs but it’s a great place to snowmachine. This one creeeeeped me out for sure by the way! 🤙

[@kayokay470]

The way you read this made it super creepy! I was listening while trying to fall asleep and had to find a different story because this one was freaking me out a little bit.

[@jasonalbran376]

The normal yet sing song voice the creature had gave an extra level of an unnerving feeling. Still, what was it's purpose for pulling people down there? I guess it forces people to stay until they die of dehydration, starvation, hypothermia and/or injuries It apparently doesn't eat them though. The worst part is the creature has no known history or lore. That terrifying as well as commendable. It shows a higher intelligence compared to other creatures and less of an ego or simply plays it safe. Most cryptids are arrogant to a point that their overconfidence leads humans to figure out their weaknesses. This one stays out of sight plans each abduction carefully as to not have witnesses or survivors to tell their tale of how they escaped and if they learned any weaknesses.

[@kimicappiello5480]

You bring this old lady so much joy! ♥️💀♥️

[@tehwicked1]

Best narrator on KZbin, dropping another fantastic story. Thanks very much, Lighthouse. Your stories help me finish my day on a positive note. Take care of yourself, my friend.

[@itjustmemanning8441]

I'm glad I was never into hiking. I loved long walks... Great story. The twist at the end with a girl found dead was creepy. Thanks to you and your team for all your hard work. I'll be looking for your next one.

[@quintonbottoms5766]

I also like long walks. . . Up mountains, through snow, and with big treaded boots. But not hiking, never hiking

[@InsertMyChineseUsername]

I loved hiking until one time some meds made me see monsters and then I noped out of the forest and haven't been back 😂its too creepy being alone in the dark wilderness

[@nunyabizness3101]

It feels good to settle in for another story, thank you so much I needed this. Living at home with my family for spring break wore down my psyche till I had a breakdown in a parking lot at midnight, and its not even the end of the week yet. Stuff like this keeps me going though.

[@raymondmckinney1565]

Thanks for the story as usual Lighthouse you did a phenomenal job.

This story hits close to home because I live just north of Cantwell Cliffs in Columbus, Ohio 🤣🤣🤣 don't make me paranoid to hike in the Hocking Hills region

Cantwell cliffs is a hiking area only a few miles from me. Its very popular, i have been there many times...afraid I won't be going back anytime soon...thank you. Stephen...lmao

Don't ever tell a psychologist about cryptids and the paranormal that's for a sure. Trust me you try to get help for trauma or help sorting through your feelings about stuff like that they call you crazy no matter how many see things. People that see cryptids or paranormal phenomena are not crazy to many people experience it to be crazy. No we've just seen something unusal
