"Wolves asleep amidst the trees, bats all a-swaying in the breeze. But one soul lies anxious, wide awake, fearing all manner of ghouls, hags and wraiths." - The Witcher, "Lullaby of Woe" (Sorry, the title of the story in the video title made me think of that song.)

Australia is something else. 24°C water is FREEZING. 🤯

[@conkyjoe8932]

Cool, yes haha. But not freezing 😜 Would imagine that water temps. off the coast of California and the N. Atlantic states is as cool, if not colder. I'm just going based off what I know about white sharks, and their preference for cooler waters w/ seal populations 🤣🤣🤣 so Hell, I could be TOTALLY off.

Hahaha I said the same thing thinking I was first then I saw you had same idea. All good...This channel is my favorite. Funny I love the dogman/ werewolf bigfoot and alien stories..Grew up in Midwest in middle of the woods..Feels like I'm home back in the Midwest when I listen to that guy..waiting for the darkness of the woods and night to overcome grandpa's house..so serene..I miss the forests of Missouri so much

[@FearStreet777]

@@mfelliott87 That sounds nice. I'm from Louisiana, and gre up playing in fields, woods, and by creeks haha. So, the naturey vibes are like home to me as well. Speaking of dogman and alien stories, I have quite a few on my channel that you may like. I'm up and coming, but I'm an experienced narrator and have a big collab coming soon

[@kterhune100]

I've had a camping experience like that guy and his dog... I've been sleeping and something pushes against the tent walls. You can feel it and touch it but I could barley see it. I am super blind when I don't have my glasses on and even I could tell it was a bear or something but no sound could be heard, it DID smell BAD though

"Weird sightings throughout the 70s in and around Sioux Falls." If the Sioux Falls of the 70s was anything like the Sioux Falls of the 2010s, those "weird sightings" were just the locals. I'm not saying that they weren't worth worrying about, I'm just saying that they weren't TECHNICALLY strange, scientifically unclassified creatures.

[@TheTruelakersfan]

Why do you read them like a story ? Makes them sound fake boring and makes me lose interest. It should be read more of a true encounter. I don't know if you add all that extra details or they sent it to you like that . But you should try and verify these stories and rewrite or reword them.

[@conkyjoe8932]

What you suggested he do is exactly what HE DOES. They read like a story, because that's what is gripping and enthralling for listeners (bc true, first-hand accounts can only truly be related as such BY the individual who experienced them). And he does change the wording, slight details, etc etc if the way the witness worded them in their report was either not long enough, not written as well as it could've been, and so on and so forth. He's verified this himself in a past video. So, what you say you'd rather hear in a story from DP is already EXACTLY what he does. Seems there's no pleasing you. Lol 😂 Might be better off finding stories "elsewhere"...Idk...
