This week we're diving into a topic that we've wanted to touch on for quite some time: Park Ranger Horror Stories! Some truly unsettling things take place deep in the woods, and nestled behind the shrubs of your favorite national parks, and this week we're shining a light on some of the creepier stories we've come across. Forest Rangers and other personnel that help keep our parks safe have some wild stories under their belts after years of active service patrolling these pristine slices of nature.

Sure, most can be explained as wildlife or weird humans, but that's not what we're here for today. Oh no, we're taking a look into some truly bizarre and super creepy paranormal experiences ranging from shadowy sasquatch, an eerie old witch shapeshifter, deer bodies found 100' up in a tree, getting chased by bigfoot, and even a creepy 7' South African hyena skinwalker entity.  So if you thought your biggest concern was running into a bear in the wild, buckle up, because this episode will surely be a rude awakening! ----- TIME STAMPS:
