| 0:00.0 | So today's story is a very creepy one. In fact, it's so unsettling at times that you're very likely going to think it's just fake. |
| 0:10.8 | But there was a pretty incredible discovery that was made in the early 1900s that very likely means this story is true. |
| 0:21.6 | But before we get into that incredible campfire story, as you can see, I'm literally sitting by a campfire. |
| 0:29.6 | And honestly, it was just because, you know, what I sort of do is I tell scary campfire stories a lot of the times. |
| 0:36.6 | But I never actually sit by a fire. |
| 0:38.7 | And so we decided why not literally make a campfire and tell a spooky story by it. |
