1
00:00:00,560 –> 00:00:06,360
Can you understand me?
Welcome to Paranormal Night

2
00:00:06,360 –> 00:00:09,360
Shift, your home for all things
that go bump in the dark and

3
00:00:09,360 –> 00:00:13,000
your fan stories told here.
Day’s story comes from Calvin

4
00:00:13,000 –> 00:00:16,040
and Syracuse and is called It
Knew My Name.

5
00:00:16,640 –> 00:00:19,360
My cousin and I were closer than
brothers growing up.

6
00:00:19,400 –> 00:00:21,720
We just spent most of our
summers right next to each

7
00:00:21,720 –> 00:00:23,960
other.
In fact, most people at school

8
00:00:24,280 –> 00:00:27,970
thought we were brothers.
But we spent our summers on the

9
00:00:27,970 –> 00:00:31,690
farm doing what farm kids do.
We had chores to do, and after

10
00:00:31,690 –> 00:00:34,690
that there wasn’t a lot of adult
supervision.

11
00:00:34,970 –> 00:00:38,930
About 14 or 15.
My cousin became fascinated,

12
00:00:38,930 –> 00:00:42,170
almost obsessed with skin
walkers.

13
00:00:42,650 –> 00:00:45,050
It was his goal in life to find
one.

14
00:00:45,130 –> 00:00:48,250
He was going to hunt one down.
He was going to prove that these

15
00:00:48,250 –> 00:00:52,490
things really existed, was all
he would ever talk about on the

16
00:00:52,490 –> 00:00:54,290
phone.
At the dinner table.

17
00:00:54,600 –> 00:00:56,920
He would read books upon books
about them.

18
00:00:57,320 –> 00:01:01,480
He read all sorts of things from
Ed and Brian Warren, anything

19
00:01:01,480 –> 00:01:04,040
about the occult, anything about
paranormal.

20
00:01:04,319 –> 00:01:08,360
He was just fascinated with it.
Like I said, we spent majority

21
00:01:08,360 –> 00:01:11,960
of the summer on his farm and
one night we had finished

22
00:01:11,960 –> 00:01:14,960
everything and he had a tent and
the sleeping bag rolled up.

23
00:01:15,440 –> 00:01:16,880
He said let’s go camping
tonight.

24
00:01:17,280 –> 00:01:21,200
I think I know where one is.
I think I can finally find one.

25
00:01:21,800 –> 00:01:25,190
Now I’m going to let you know I
had no intentions of wanting to

26
00:01:25,190 –> 00:01:28,670
find one.
I did not share his love for all

27
00:01:28,670 –> 00:01:30,190
things that went bump in the
night.

28
00:01:30,510 –> 00:01:34,230
In fact, they terrified me.
But what was I supposed to do?

29
00:01:34,630 –> 00:01:39,030
Here I was at midnight, in the
middle of a cornfield whistling.

30
00:01:40,790 –> 00:01:42,870
He had read that whistling
attracts them.

31
00:01:43,390 –> 00:01:46,830
If you say their names out loud,
it attracts them.

32
00:01:47,470 –> 00:01:51,390
Suddenly, throughout the corn, I
started noticing it was moving.

33
00:01:52,200 –> 00:01:55,720
And Cornfield’s probably acres
upon acres.

34
00:01:56,240 –> 00:02:00,840
But right in front of us, maybe
8-9 feet, the stocks begin to

35
00:02:00,840 –> 00:02:04,840
fall over.
He grabbed my hand and took off

36
00:02:04,840 –> 00:02:07,000
running into the cornfield.
We’ve got one.

37
00:02:07,320 –> 00:02:11,360
I think we finally got one.
We’re over here.

38
00:02:12,120 –> 00:02:15,720
Look, man, Stop, stop.
I’m scared, Okay.

39
00:02:15,880 –> 00:02:17,160
Is that what you want to hear me
say?

40
00:02:17,360 –> 00:02:19,040
You got me.
You got me scared.

41
00:02:19,420 –> 00:02:21,780
I don’t want to play this
paranormal game of hide and

42
00:02:21,780 –> 00:02:23,980
seek.
You don’t know what is coming

43
00:02:23,980 –> 00:02:27,620
after you.
And he takes off running again,

44
00:02:27,980 –> 00:02:31,540
whistling and saying their name
loud as he possibly can,

45
00:02:31,540 –> 00:02:33,180
screaming at the top of his
lungs.

46
00:02:33,540 –> 00:02:35,340
Come get me.
I’m over here.

47
00:02:35,860 –> 00:02:38,020
I’m over here.
Come get me.

48
00:02:38,220 –> 00:02:40,740
Great.
Now I’m stuck in the middle of

49
00:02:40,740 –> 00:02:42,460
this cornfield.
My cousin.

50
00:02:42,580 –> 00:02:44,900
I can see him running through
the corn, but I have no

51
00:02:44,900 –> 00:02:47,220
direction.
I have no idea where I’m at.

52
00:02:47,760 –> 00:02:49,680
All I have is the moonlight
guiding me.

53
00:02:50,160 –> 00:02:54,440
I begin slowly working my way
out of the cornfield, trying to

54
00:02:54,440 –> 00:02:57,800
find whatever anything that I
can that would lead me in the

55
00:02:57,800 –> 00:03:02,320
direction of back to the house.
If he wants to go and contact

56
00:03:02,320 –> 00:03:05,600
stuff, he has no idea, then let
him do it.

57
00:03:05,840 –> 00:03:07,840
I don’t want to play this game
anymore.

58
00:03:08,400 –> 00:03:11,680
I start walking my way through
the cornfield, but I still keep

59
00:03:11,680 –> 00:03:15,120
hearing the whistling.
I’m waiting for him to jump out

60
00:03:15,120 –> 00:03:18,160
and get me.
I grab a stick that I find on

61
00:03:18,160 –> 00:03:20,040
the ground.
I’ll give him something if he

62
00:03:20,040 –> 00:03:22,720
wants to jump, scare me.
I got something for him if he

63
00:03:22,720 –> 00:03:25,240
jump scares me and I just keep
walking.

64
00:03:25,240 –> 00:03:28,760
But I feel like I’m walking in
circles and I feel like I’ve

65
00:03:28,760 –> 00:03:34,080
been walking for hours, keep
hearing the whistling over here,

66
00:03:34,360 –> 00:03:37,520
but now it seems like the
whistling’s coming from all

67
00:03:37,520 –> 00:03:40,040
angles.
Behind me, in front of me,

68
00:03:40,160 –> 00:03:44,040
beside me, right on top of me.
I keep hearing it.

69
00:03:46,580 –> 00:03:51,420
Where’d that one come from?
It felt like it was right beside

70
00:03:51,420 –> 00:03:55,220
me.
Now it’s behind me.

71
00:03:56,660 –> 00:03:59,300
Where are you?
I’m scared and I don’t want to

72
00:03:59,300 –> 00:04:02,460
play this game anymore.
Can we please just go?

73
00:04:02,980 –> 00:04:05,540
That’s when I hear the most
blood curdling scream.

74
00:04:05,820 –> 00:04:09,540
It echoes in my head.
Even today I ran directly

75
00:04:09,540 –> 00:04:11,460
towards the screen and there is
my cousin.

76
00:04:11,780 –> 00:04:15,610
He’s being picked up and and
held by something shaken like a

77
00:04:15,610 –> 00:04:19,050
rag doll.
The thing looks at me and says

78
00:04:19,570 –> 00:04:22,290
hello Calvin.
It was tall and skinny.

79
00:04:22,690 –> 00:04:27,330
It had claw like hands, a huge
gaping hole as a mouth with full

80
00:04:27,330 –> 00:04:29,970
of fangs.
It was everything that he had

81
00:04:29,970 –> 00:04:32,610
described.
It looked over at me and dropped

82
00:04:32,610 –> 00:04:35,250
my cousin, leaving him exactly
where he was.

83
00:04:35,770 –> 00:04:37,730
My cousin was unconscious.
He was hurt.

84
00:04:38,050 –> 00:04:40,170
I could tell that he was hurt.
He was bleeding.

85
00:04:40,810 –> 00:04:43,690
The thing ran off into the corn
and I ran over to my cousin.

86
00:04:44,480 –> 00:04:47,360
My cousin laying there bleeding,
beaten and torn.

87
00:04:47,920 –> 00:04:50,680
He was barely conscious and he
said you have to go get help.

88
00:04:51,240 –> 00:04:54,000
I can’t leave you here.
If I if I leave you here, what

89
00:04:54,000 –> 00:04:57,120
if it comes back?
It’s not my turn anymore.

90
00:04:57,920 –> 00:05:00,520
It’s yours.
It knew your name.

91
00:05:01,280 –> 00:05:03,520
I ran to the barn and I woke up
my aunt and uncle.

92
00:05:04,040 –> 00:05:06,680
They were furious.
It took us an hour to find my

93
00:05:06,680 –> 00:05:09,280
cousin.
He had to be taken out of the

94
00:05:09,280 –> 00:05:12,680
field via helicopter and and
then to the hospital.

95
00:05:13,410 –> 00:05:15,730
They stayed in a coma for almost
3 months.

96
00:05:16,170 –> 00:05:19,850
They wanted to blame it on a
wolf attack, but I know what I’d

97
00:05:19,850 –> 00:05:23,330
seen when he woke up.
He knew what he had seen.

98
00:05:23,890 –> 00:05:28,290
Nobody believed us.
Everything that had happened was

99
00:05:28,290 –> 00:05:31,210
bad enough.
But now the more I read into

100
00:05:31,210 –> 00:05:36,250
these skinwalkers, the more I am
absolutely terrified because it

101
00:05:36,250 –> 00:05:39,450
knew my name.
That’s what gives them power.

102
00:05:40,330 –> 00:05:43,380
It knows my name.
Dude.

103
00:05:43,380 –> 00:05:46,940
I love your story.
Absolutely true or not true, it

104
00:05:46,940 –> 00:05:49,860
doesn’t really matter.
These fun ghost stories,

105
00:05:49,860 –> 00:05:52,100
campfire stories, whatever you
guys want to call them.

106
00:05:52,380 –> 00:05:54,700
I’m having such a great time
telling these stories.

107
00:05:54,700 –> 00:05:58,260
If you have one, please send it
in to Paranormal Night Shift.

108
00:05:58,540 –> 00:06:01,500
Also, we have sticker packs
available up here in the link
