You don't have to go to Appalachia, there are 500,000 feral people in Baltimore. The difference is, they can't survive without tax payer assistance.

[@FreyaVanBuren-go8qn]

That is a lie that they need money assistance to survive there is a lack of jobs in the whole USA and after the pandemic it got worse, we have homeless all over Europe too. 😢

[@jonwoodworker]

@FreyaVanBuren-go8qn You are the liar. I see 500k of them roaming the streets of DC and Baltimore everyday like zombies. There are jobs for people who WANT to work. There are criers, and there are doers. Those who cry live off the taxes of the doers. I have never been on public assistance and would be ashamed of myself if I was. I agree, some people need help, but it is TEMPORARY, NOT A LIFESTYLE.

I've lived in the deep Appalachia all of my life. I knew some people who kept to themselves pretty much. In Appalachia, you have only two types of people, your friends or your worst enemies. Here, you build respect through kindness, and enemies are made by too much drinking. So if you come, be nice or don't come here at all.

It is a whole different world in those hills. Most people traveling through Kentucky might travel south on I-75 and they are fairly safe. However if you wander too far into the deep forests, then you are in an entirely different world. I too was born there but grew up elsewhere. Even though I have many relatives there I have not been back for many years and would be considered "an outsider". It is a beautiful land though and I have fond memories of my childhood.

Wood boogers are Sasquatch not feral people. An old man when he was a kid told the story about he went fishing with his grandpa and he left his grandpa left his lunch on the edge of the woods while they went down and went fishing. The boy asks his Grandpa Grandpa Grandpa why are you leaving or lunch on the edge of the woods. Is grandpa said I'm leaving them for the hairy people. All the sudden he made a whistling sound and said come to the top of the hill and look over but don't go down. The boy said there was a several of what he would say were Sasquatch. Is grandpa said this is the way I communicate with them and I always leave them alone at the edge of the woods so they know we're not aggressive. One of the creatures had a gray patch of hair on his back. Well they done this for years and Grandpa would always take him to the cafe after fishing and they would have a hamburger. Don't tell your grandma about this. He asked his grandfather as they were looking at them what are they called grandpa. He said folks call them boogers or wood boogers. Well they would see these creatures every time they went fishing Grandpa would make the special whistle. Many years later he went to the same area where him and his grandpa went fishing of course by now his grandpa was dead. The boy had a sack lunch that he left at the edge of the woods and then done the whistle that his grandpa had told him about. He said he saw them literally come up to the bag and get the lunch and since he whistled like the grandpa one of the creatures was looking around as if looking for the old man. He said and I know why it was the same creature with the gray patch on his back that I saw so many years before. He said he was looking for Grandpa they were friends of sort. Grandpa told him around that area they were common knowledge but mostly The Men who were out in the fields or in the woods are the ones that have seen them. Every time he comes to that area of the woods he said he leaves a lunch and whistles so they can know that they have food on the edge of the woods. It's kind of a horror story to believe but it is a feel-good story.

That goes right along with what my father told me. Sometime before my father died, I asked him what part his people took during the Civil War. Did they side with the North, side with the South, or did they split apart and go to both sides? His answer was, "None of them." They took back the old ways (the Cherokee ways), what they needed, and went so deep into the woods that nobody knew they were out there." "They stayed out there long after the war was over; and, then they returned to what was left of their land and homes." The History books I studied in Public Schools never stated one word about people going feral before, during, and after the Civil War. Things did not go smoothly for a long while after they returned; but, they stayed with the so-called Civilized World. Other people stayed feral. Please note: Daddy did not tell me this part of his family's history until I asked for it. I would have never learned this, if I had not asked. What is scary to me is that some of those feral people still living out there in the woods may be kin to me. Daddy is the name I was taught to call my father.

When I was a kid growing up in the mountains of E. Tennessee we called them Haints. One night when I was in high school in the 70s, deep in the woods, cross country skiing on a one way motor nature trail in the National Park that was closed, literally in the middle of no where, 30 miles from any civilization, we came across a set of footprints in the 6" deep snow crossing the road. The tracks came out of the woods, crossed the road, and went down the hill. Boy did we start booking it down that road to get out of there as fast as we could. We figured it was either big foot or a Haint and we weren't staying around to find out which one. Absolutely true, there is "something" out there.

I've lived in Appalachiaa all my life and I've never seen them up close but back when I was 14 years old I came face to face with the dog man he stalked me from up on a ridge line above me for about 3 hours and tried to mimic my steps I couldn't smell him at all because he was up above me I was hiking up this long drawl at the bottom was about 80 feet high cliffs on both sides and I was hiking from the bottom to the top ok and when i was 3 quarters to the top the cliffs was still a good 12 to 15 feet high above my head and I'm 6 foot 2 inches tall 200 pounds ok and that's the first time I heard it so I thought nuthing of it other then a squirrel or deer run off that I would of liked to off seen ok so I kept on climbing hiking ok well about another 8 or 10 steps I heard it again and somthing was off like it was a mistake noise I've spent all my hole life running these woods and river bottoms right so I knew that it was trying to mimic my steps or even more scarier hunting me ok so a few more steps and I hear this thing take off about the time the top of my head clears this sharp cliff and I would be able to see except just a few feet in from the edges it's covered with so thick brush that you couldn't possibly get through it so I make my way to the top of this draw finally ok and it's about a 4 foot drop ok from the ground dropping in to this draw ok and the brush was so thick that it was keeping me from standing up so I knew that I was going to have to crawl out of it how ever far it was that thick like that so I'm getting ready to put one leg up on the top of the draw to climb out but I'm hunched down to a crawl position and I heard the God awfulest loudest noise right in front of me came busting through the brush now this is green briers big as round as your thumb and trees as big as round as your wrist like spider webs and this thing monster busted through all that and was right in my face his face was face to face with mine it started growling the scariest growling I've ever heard till this day and I'm 46 years old now and it turned and tore off up through the brush busting Trees like tooth picks up the rest of the mountain and down the other side ok and the only reason that I can think of that it didn't take my life was because I believe that it's smart enough to know that if it did more of my kind would come looking for me back there and it didn't want that and I think and believe that it had a family just over the top and down the other side of the mountain that it was trying to protect that's what I think so well my name is Warren Brumfield and that's what happened to me back when I was 14 years old

I come from southeast Texas. We have similar stories and I’ve had similar feelings. I used to go fishing in some sloughs that were way off the beaten path on the Neches river. My dad would tell me to watch out for river rats. My dad liked to drink and he had a smirk on his face so I brushed it off. One day I was way back off the river in a slough I’d never seen before and there was an old flood ravaged hut. Didn’t think much as there was a lot of them out there. The stench of rotting fish was overwhelming. I glanced the paddle of the side of the canoe and 4 dirty men came outta that hut , screaming bloody murder! One of ran at the water and jumped in, swimming my direction. I think I left a rooster tail behind me, I didn’t wait around. Scared the ever livin outta me. Went back with my Dad and some friends and that shack was pushed over in the water and no sign of those folks. Whenever I’d fish that slough, I’d leave one on the bank by that shack. Never found any bones or rotted fish….

There were many, especially Appalachian people who resisted the government and civilization at the turn of the 20th century, Appalachian people have always loved and never wanted to live anywhere else. The mountains have every resource in abundance that humans and animals alike need to thrive. The Indians here in the North Carolina Appalachian mountains retreated into those hills only to disappear and stay undetected, if they did it for well over 100 years, then so could original Appalachian settlers who refused to conform or relinquish their land. It wont stop me from 1day taking off on the trail, however, i believe in being completely respectful to the the land would serve almost if not more efficiently than a firearm, which I'll 100% have that too. If they've been there this long, they'll move through the thicket like a ghost, they'll know where youll be a few hours later before you even know. At any time they could easily drop you, arrows are silent, if something is going to happen then something is going to happen, I believe if you respect it, and their space you'll have a better chance rather than if you want to investigate things you see or hear, or if you want to blaze your own trail.

I used to like to drive. And I used to like to drive through those mountains. Until the day I had to go down a jinky road to get some gas. Didn't have a choice. The car was on E. I was not making it off the mountain without gas. And I'm tellin ya. I've been to the ghetto. I lived in it. This place was way scarier. I have never had worse - I am NOT safe - vibes in my life. My brain was screaming - GET THE GAS AND LEAVE. DON'T LOOK AT ANYTHING. DON'T HANG AROUND. DON'T GET SNACKS OUT OF THE BACKSEAT! GET OUT! I got the gas and got my ass out of there. I don't know what the problem was with that place. Never went back. Drove 400 miles out of my way to not go back through whatever that was when I was going home several days later after spending some time on the coast. nopenopenope

[@cccentertainment8085]

The exact same thing happened to me in Alabama. We went to the gas station to get gas and take a piss. I had to go real bad, I could not hold it. It was pitch black outside, but there were people at the station, and some were coming into the station. This must've been the towns main station because it was late, and it seemed like regulars were still coming at that time of night. I could tell they were selling more than gas there also. Drugs, I'm talking about drugs! The car parked at the pump next to us was talking to someone who worked there by the entrance door. He looked like a dusty, dirty scumbag type of dealer. Everyone there had this layer of dust and dirt overlaying their skin and clothes. When we got out of the car, it was as if time stood still when they saw us. All eyes were on us, I mean all eyes. They stopped their conversation and watched our every move. So, to be safe I told my spouse you stay in the car, I'll go in first after I come out then you go. And the place was a hole in the wall. I mean poor, poor, poor, dirty and ran down type of place. The people looked just as bad. I'd describe them exactly the same way im describing the gas station. They weren't ferral people, but that was the vibe. We pulled off and got out of there as fast as we could. Then, the GPS took us driving through the town and it was the most backwoods, old rinky dink dirt roads, the homes were spread far and wide apart, it was pitch black, the entire area was creepy AF. Then, headlights from a distance were on us. You couldn't see anything except car lights from afar. I got so nervous. I'm please don't let one of these hillbillies start following us. We both were like we have to get out of this town. We were praying to get to a main road. The headlights got up on us, but as soon as they got close enough, the car turned on one of those "no-name" roads. My heart was beating fast. We just kept driving, no stops. About 30 mins after leaving that gas station, we crossed a railroad track. After doing that, we finally found a main road that put us back on the highway. We didn't make another stop until the sun came up. On the way back home to the city we did not stop anywhere in Alabama in the night. We filled up the gas each time when the sun was up at places that looked safe, not in the black community "No offense" to anyone, and we went to no gas station that veered far off from the highway. Definitely was not going through that experience again. Alabama is a different breed of folks until you get to their city. Then, it gets better and is tolerable.

Yes , Ray only barks and doesn’t know how to use a toilet, he just goes in his pants. And his deceased brother who looked just like him I don’t think spoke either. And Timmy, the nephew barely speaks. His mother doesn’t either. But the sister who does speak and basically takes care of all of them tells a story of when Ray was young and disappeared for a couple days. She laughs and says he found a young girl or woman in the woods somewhere and “had his way with her”. Can you imagine being attacked and r@ped by a “feral”, inbred man who only barks and is as scary looking as Ray is. I’d die of a heart attack. It’s not the Whittaker childrens fault, but their parents were first cousins from a set of twin brothers, so more like half siblings. Most of them are severely retarded but a few are somewhat normal. But what a bunch. Before they were discovered my Mark Leota people really feared them.

I believe this story 200% cause of stories I's told when I was younger. I've lived in the mountains my entire life and heared alot of things that I'm not going to ever say ain't true cause why would my elders make the stories up. Feral people lived amongst us as a kid cause I remember an old man that would come down from a holler that was a creek when it rained. He lived in an old shanty and that was his home until he died. He would come out long enough to get jars of peanut butter and I'm guessing that's pretty much what he lived on although people was always giving him stuff and he had a bad odor that could be unbearable at times. Even when people would try cleaning him up he still had that odor. Everyone called him Herb and I don't remember if he could talk. He had a scruffy like way of speaking that I didn't understand... He'd come to church every now and then. I didn't think it was right when they preached about love thy neighbor and treat others good but when 1 of the men at the church asked ol Herb to leave it was upsetting for the man and I saw hurt in the man's eyes, I instantly lost interest in church people and got in trouble with my mother cause I brung it up and I even said something to the female pastor and I reckon the decon of the church. Needless to say I was shunned and nobody liked me but I didn't mind cause they all had more than 1 face. At least 4 faces is what I saw of em. I'm guessing I'll end this but I believe alot of Feral people live in the mountains of Wva but so far out that we may never see em but I'm sure their out there somewhere and you haven't lived until you find the highest mountain in the Kanawha Valley and climb all the way to the top at a place called Alloy Wva. The mountain has a flat rock at the top and you can see for miles and miles of wilderness and miles of community's in all 4 directions. Me and my brother climbed the mountain back in the mid or early 70s and I'm so happy that we did cause it's the most amazing thing I think I've ever seen and done..

I live in the Ozarks, and the stories around here can be very similar--I guess hill country is much the same everywhere. Our homestead is next door to Mark Twain National Forest near Hercules Glade Wilderness where I frequently walk with my dogs in the forest, sometimes on old logging tracks but more often just taking deer trails. Over the last 32 years, I have several times had that same eerie feeling this guy describes, and when it happens, I always notice that my dogs stick closer to me and everything goes eerily quiet (even birds and insects stop making noise). The feeling of being watched is palpable. Once, near an old forest pond (probably scooped out by rangers for a water source because it's near a spot that used to have a fire lookout tower on it decades ago) I even found a place that someone had hollowed out under the roots of a big tree on a steep slope. The roots had been cut and the interior of the little cave-like space was charred to get rid of rootlets hanging down. It was smoothed out and large enough to sit down in--like a cozy, rounded chair, sort of egg-shaped. Someone could easily sit in there and not be seen at all unless you approached from down slope and walked up directly under the spot. Another time, I surprised someone at the same forest pond when I approached without making as much noise as usual. I didn't see whoever it was, but I smelled him from about 150' away and spoke to my dogs about the stench. I'm sure it was the sound of my voice that made him leave in such a hurry that he left behind a ratty old scrap (about 12" x 18") of foam cushion (the sort of closed cell foam people use for putting under a sleeping bag) under a group of cedar trees a few feet from the pond. I always took my dogs to that spot for a drink on hot days when the creeks went dry, so I would have known if that bit of foam had been there previously--especially since I have been in the habit of walking 3 to 10 miles or so in that area almost every single day and had been there just the previous day. I could hear something moving fast down the hill on the other side of the embankment around the pond, but by the time I got around to where I could look down the slope, there was no one in sight. Anyway ... just two examples of the many anecdotes I could tell. I am familiar with my woods for miles around and I almost always have dogs with me, but for people who don't know what's what in the woods ... my advice is to stay in the city and don't venture too far out in the Ozark hills.

The first year that National Park rangers carried firearms was 1970. After the hippies took over a part of Yosemite N. P. in 1969, saying "this belongs to the people" and when being evicted by the rangers, a barrage of pre-positioned rocks were rained down on the rangers. Injuries were sustained. The next year, after so many visits to the National Parks previously, I found it quite shocking to see the rangers packing for the first time.

I live on the far southwest edge of "Appalachia", which has been occupied by more civilized people, including the aboriginal Cherokees and Chickasaws. Sure enough, as you move eastward into the mountains, you will encounter more and more people whose speech is almost indecipherable (Hill Country dialect), and sometimes you will get a whiff of somebody's lack of hygiene. To say it's the odor of "deal animal carcass" is a bit mild. I have literally detected them well before I could see them, sometimes even from inside or outside buildings. Yes, venturing into the true backwoods, you will notice a change in demeanor among the locals -- they act like you're not welcome. But if you know how to engage them, everything will be alright.

man, ive seen legit unbelievable things in the forest throughout the years , and this is in indiana all over it had this happened. Now I do have schizophrenia, but the thing is im aware when im hallucinating. ive seen what I called a wearwolf, but no human form, and this things eyes glowed red, and was the biggest dor form animal ive ever seen. now lets get to the juicy one, I truly 100% believe this is a skin walker, and its been following me for about 5 years now. I moved back here to indiana a few years back, and was at rum village trails, and was blasting, as fast as I could possibly ride, and had headphones in. now I play ALOT of shooters, and my eyes see out the peripherals really well. soo im blasting this trail, our my left periphal, I see this white figure running as fast as im riding, about 100 feet from me in direct parallel to the direction I was going. I legit started to freak the living F out, I just started screaming leave me tf alone!! then proceeded to say, listen you dont wanna change into me, my life is straight trash it legit aint worth it. it smelled like PURE SULFUR, and ROTTING EGGS. this thing was a humanoid figure, and it had not genitalia, no eye sockets, nothing was a white humanoid. It made this weird chittering noise somehow though. eventually I made it to the road, ive seen it there a few times since, and its usually far away. now at potatoe creek state park in indiana, ive had a encounter with that exact same humanoid creature, it started chasing me hella deep into the mtb trails. but this time it got aggressive, and started through sticks at me that was pretty freaking big, and I was seeing this whiz past the left side of my fullface. thats when I lost it dudes, I started screaming for help, started screaming im gonna unalive it, started saying just face me 1 to 1, why do you always gotta be so far away I dont understand. eventually got ahold of a friend who was there with me, he was helping our mentally challenged friend jimme riding on flat trains cause he is mentally slow. got him on the phone, and was legit almost in tears, telling him it was chasing me again! ive seen this thing maybe 5-8ish times now in the past 5 years. now, the other weird thing I though it could be, was someone from the future using a cloaking device, and cant show themselves but are watching me, but then that poses the question as to "why" would that person be doing that to start with. who cares about me im just a nobody. also about the feral people in TN, I know a girl, we will call her K, and she is about 34ish, and her family came from the ferals, and inbreds, and I swear she told me all this on my mothers grave, and about everything ive said. on my late mothers grave, I give everyone my word im being 100% truthful, and very honest about my reactions. K also explained to me her feral family lived deep deep deep in the tn mountains, and that a certain part of their entire family is pure "incest", and that mothers , brothers, fathers, sisters, aunts, uncles didnt matter everyone was game. she said she refuses to speak or even really mention them cause they are such a nightmare to her. I still ride alot in the trails, and im glade ive not seen this walker thing lately, im legit terrified to not ride without a go pro on now, like if im by myself, the go pro is legit on. its like the moments I turn them off it all goes away. I did have this weird footage but lost it from like a year or two ago, where my hallucinations started, and I was in the woods, and was like "if I publish this" someone please tell me you see this thing standing in the woods etc. but I was tripping because , it was like instant fear, panic, anxiety, that super deep gut feeling something is off, and or wrong. always trust your gut, and your dog people. have a good one, sorry this was so long.

Wow 😮. I've always wondered about those type of people and how did they happen to be. Thanks for putting this story up Jared.

Them stories always show up when the weather is above 60 at night and the first week of August 😂😂

[@vickiparrish3235]

Excellent story! Their deformities & inabilities to speak sound like they’re highly interbred. Which makes sense from their way of living. They may even be cannibals & that’s why so many hikers have disappeared over the decades. Even in the deep wooded areas in the mountains of Arkansas there are semi feral families that are flat scary.

[@JaredKingTV]

Howdy Vicki! Yeah I agree! I definitely believe they're part of the reason for hikers going missing due to cannibalism. Thank you so so much for watching and enjoying! God bless you Kinfolk and have a mighty good'n!!

[@anntunaley9974]

Yes similar to the Whittaker family that mark Leota shows. They’re not cannibals but inbred and Ray is quite feral.

[@dinarusso3320]

​@@anntunaley9974 I've seen the Whitaker family, they're a little slow from inbreeding, but far from feral, they went to public school, live in houses and speak English. Not what this video is referring to

WOW!! 😯 This is a true story?? I can believe it because I grew up in the Appalachian Mountains of WV. I was "privileged" enough to be exposed to many mountain cultures that most don't get to see. Thanks to my father, who unfortunately passed away when I was 19. But never quite heard of such feral people. Thank you for sharing!!

Hi Ramona! The gentleman that submitted it swears it's very real. I grew up in the TN mountains so I can honestly say...the mountains do have some strange things in them as I'm sure you know too. Sorry you lost your father 😔 may he rest in peace 🕊️🙏 thank you so much for watching. God bless

My dad's ancestors came from the Kentucky mountains and I never heard about the hills being said of what they did expect moonshine. They mostly moved to Missouri all around. As a kid seeing and meeting dad's kin, they are still hillbilly as they come. I have a hillbilly accent that people think I am from avalanches. I'm from the Ozarks.

I live up in North Wilkesboro NC, before I became paralyzed I used to drive all through back woods and car camp hill and dale. There are definitely interesting folk up off the Appalachian trail. Mind you that goes all the way up North. I definitely seen a thing or two in New York State Forest system as well. But I'll tell you what... don't knock that mountain medicine they use. There's folk magic 🪄 and healthier stuff than big pharma is pushing.

I believe you 100% I'm 65 years old I've been hunting since I've been 15 and I've heard things in the woods that I cannot explain never been able to see anything but have heard some sounds that absolutely made my hair stand up weird sounds that was not normal sounds that I'm used to hearing in the woods it scared me so bad that I put my back against the tree and took the safety off my gun fully expecting to have something run in on me once it got daylight I went down to the area and inspected it really really good for the sound was coming from found nothing out of the ordinary nothing that looked out of place everything looked just normal like it should have at the bottom of the hollow was a sinkhole that I was not going to try to explore but it's only thing I can figure out still don't know till this day and this was at Taylorsville lake Briar ridge in Kentucky only about a half a mile from the parking area as the crow flies so it ain't like that I was way back in the woods someplace I've been there too but I haven't heard anything out of the ordinary I will say one thing I did find a lot of old stills and still sites at Land between the lakes and strangely enough a lot of abandoned cars that actually there was no way to get them to where they were I still ain't figured it out to this day how they got there cuz there was most definitely no roads out there up into them woods and then the cars would be down into a Holler and you can tell they just been shoved off the cliff down into the hollow and to be left there but like I said I ain't figured out how they got them up there a lot of the Stills were actually pretty close to intact except for a few axe holes in the sides of them no submarine still just pot stills most of them look to be around 30 gallons give or take 5 gallons

Sounds like that show on Hulu called “Outsiders” I guess you can say it sparked my interest in these type of folks. My grandma used to talk about these people her daddy told her as a girl back in the 30’s we were supposedly kin to that lived up in the mountains that she said great grandpa called feral folk. I wish I could have pressed more on finding out who and where there were, I bet that would have been crazy as hell!

[@christenascott5280]

I’ve heard of Mountain people, who live in out lying hills. Not the forest that you described They live in the mountains around us. My grandmother called them spirit people. People have chosen to leave civilization and live alone away from everybody. I don’t think there’s anything wrong with it. We all make decisions that affect our lives, and they have the same right as I have in their decisions. of the lifestyle they want to live. Grandmother showed me some evidence of her spirit people had been, but she never did teach me to be afraid of them. I never saw them but that was over 60 years ago. Are they still there? I don’t know I have moved away from that area. But this story reminded me of the mountain people/the spirit people. I was not taught to fear them, and they weren’t known for their destructive nature.
