Genuinely fascinated by the idea of Feral humans, especially their origins. Are they indians who escaped the trail of tears, former confederates, people driven to madness, escaped prisoners, former nomads turned feral, ancient stone age humans, inbred cannibals, neanderthals, cursed individuals, descendents of Ancient Solutreans, escaped asylum patients, non - humans, Bigfoot, lepers, mutants, loners, cultists?
People who don't want to deal with shit anymore... sounds like a nice idea
The true quote unquote “Feral Humans” that most people talk about are descendants of a large group of Scotch/Irish settlers who set up a living Deep within the remote forests of the Appalachian mountains. Many of them came over here to start a new life away from the preying eyes of what was considered status quo. As Steve mentioned in this video. Some of them were heavily involved in witchcraft and black magic, some of them wanted to practice incest, and others were just not fit too live in everyday society. As a result, these people are so far removed from society that they truly are feral by our normal everyday standards.
There are feral humans camping in every major city in California.
They are Trump's supporters.

I absolutely love Steve Stockton’s voice and narration! I could listen to him for hours.
Sending lots of love and respect from the Navajo Nation, Steve.
Ahxé’heé!!🩵🪶✊🏽

SAME! ❤
I do too his voice is perfect for these stories ❤
Always carry a gun, i live in east Tennessee theres definitely something in those mountains. People who go unarmed are not very smart.
What is this "something"?
This sounds so mysterious!
@@renacleerican7824every state in the Appalachian range has these stories and myths and places you shouldn't go.
Urbanites have no idea. Especially these hiking enthusiasts who dwell in the city, and escape to the mountains on the weekends to "get away".
Yeah, from experience I can tell you that "something" is other people walking around with guns. If you don't have a gun, you're gonna be victimized by the guy who has the gun. Have a gun, make sure they know you got it = safety. It's nothing more than an arms race just like it always has been with primitive areas.
Bullshit. Its bears or hikers. Nothing strange about the Appalachian mtns. Lived in them my whole life. Avid camper and paddler never saw or heard anything unnatural. @renacleerican7824
I'm seeing more and more feral people in the city and suburbs.
Wild Karen's are especially prevalent.
@@LadyLubdan more dangerous than ferals. ferals won't lie to the police to see them use their guns on you.

How dare you speak of our fine welfare recipients like that.

As usual another hit. Thank u Steve. I was born in Johnson City, Tennessee and the majority of my family is still there. Raised in NY I will always be a country girl. Love these stories I heard as a child as my summers were spent In Johnson City. God Bless u, Nicole and your precious son. ❤❤

Nothing like a good story with it raining in the background! ❤️🩷💜💙🩵

Great stories. The narrator sounds like that of an Appalachian. These stories scare the crap out of me. Its been years since I have done it, but I have hiked and camped in these very same areas in these stories. I didn't see anything or even necessarily heard anything too creepy, but there was a sense by all of us that "something" malevolent out in the darkness of the deep woods. I have never gone back.
These stories are my go to every night I jump into bed at night. Love from Ireland ☘️..god bless you all

I LOVE that song!
Good lol
Corn don't grow at all on Rocky Top. Dirt's too Rocky by far. That's why all the folks on Rocky Top get their corn from a jar.
@@LadyLubdan Yeah boy!

I recognise that voice!! Fabulous!! You got yourself a new subscriber!
Yay! Thank you!
Always carry a pistol or some kind of weapon if u go in the woods
That's Why I Don't Camp!
Sounds like listeners never been in a city! All kind of wild or feral types.
and housed in high elite hotels in NYC, paid by us
It's true. That's why you want to be careful out there in the backcountry.
Don't go looking for them, either.
The Bone Eater Story really hits home. My maiden name is McCormick, Scots Irish. Josiah McCormick was probably my kinfolk.
The blue people were in Kentucky. A genetic mutation. The feral people are not just one species of humans. Some are the white skinned Indians who escaped the Trail of Tears and were here before Europeans ever set foot on this land. They were vicious and cannibalistic and scared the Native American tribes who tried to kill them off. They retreated to the caves and underground tunnels way up-in the hills. Then there are the Wood Boogers who carry people off. They are out there knocking on trees and whooping late at night. Big suckers, some people call them Bigfoot. By the time the stink hits you, it’s too late to run. Yes, there are some regular people out in the woods who are not very sociable. They may be running from the law or just lost their minds and went wild. Funny that the other things don’t bother with them much. I guess they are considered cursed or something. The one that really makes the hair stand up is that thing that can mimic a human voice. They try to lure you closer and even call you by name. If you’re inside, lock yourself in and stay there. If you’re outside, run like crazy as far away from the voice as you can get. You might make it……………
Good story teller❤
I imagine you, in a cabin in the Appalachians woods, by a fire, telling this stories to a bunch of fascinated, terrified children.
Why are this place so eerie and mysterious?
The story is an old one, passed from my grandmother who had the second sight. She made her own medicine for whatever ailed you. Lord help you, if you coughed where she could hear. That so called medicine burned like the fire of hell as it went down your throat and exploded into your stomach. I spent a lot of time at my grandma’s house. She sat me down and explained how the world worked and why I was special because I knew stuff. Things I shouldn’t have known and always before it happened. I experienced the mimic calling my name when I was 7. There’s a chill that runs down your spine and grips your heart and squeezes. I am lucky. I was inside the house. Grandma let me sleep on her couch that night and she watched over me all night. There really are things out there in the dark woods. Maybe the Indians left something behind, but you can feel the presence of those that came before you….
@@NanaBren I could read an entire book of your stories!
Your grandmother was a good witch so?
We have the same legend in Europe about a voice( whistle) in the woid at night, if you answer, you done.
Also thank you very much for sharing your great folklore with us!!
Hello, I think of my grandma as more of a medicine woman. She was part Native American Indian. She didn’t grow up on the reservation but she was born on the reservation. I’m not sure who taught her. In my lifetime, I have only seen her do one negative working or spell. It was on the man who shot her son to death. She didn’t share anything negative with me and I’m grateful. I only deal in positive energy. Her husband, my grandfather was murdered when my Dad was 16 years old. In the end, she taught me how to live with the land. My brother and I took care of her animals before and after school. I learned much from sitting at her feet. Both sides of my family are Scots Irish. I love learning about the history of my ancestors. People scoff at the old legends, but there is a grain of truth behind them. I believe that I was targeted because of the gifts. I was saved from drowning at 6 years old by an angel. My Dad said I was so deep in the water that he couldn’t find me for over 5 minutes. I remember talking to the very pretty lady who asked me if I was ready to go home. We talked it over and I decided to stay. She pushed me up and up until my foot was on a log and my head was above water. The water gushing out of my mouth and my chest hurt a lot but I wasn’t afraid. I will never forget the moment my Dad surfaced and saw me. That was the beginning of my journey and I am 65 years old now. It’s been an interesting journey. I’m glad I made the decision to stay here. 😊❤️🌹Brenda
@@NanaBren Hello Brenda🤗
Witch is not a pejorative word in my mouth, it also means Medecine man/woman, but in an ancient european way. I am glad to read you again! Your GrandMother was for sure an amazing woman, what tragic losses she had to survive! She gave you the gift, it is so precious;
I am also glad your Angel was/is there for you when you were a little girl in danger, because it is obvious to me that you have a real talent of "Conteuse"( sorry I don't know how to translate this french words properly: storyteller? But in a more ancient way..), and beautiful stories to tell.
I, myself love tales, folklore( I'm fascinated by North American Native's folklore, amazing!), and I want one day to sit at a table in a little house, in the countryside, with my dog, a cup of sweet tea, and begin to write many fantastic stories.
I'll be glad to know that you are writing the story of your childhood with your Grandma, and happy to read it!
We, sensitive and creative beings, are here to give, and stories are immortal.
Thank you again, Rena🤗
My buddy lives in Asheville. Told me about a mountain man or feral person he picked up . Said as he drove a mountain road this unsightly character of a man with unkept hair and very little clothes just basically fell out of the hills right in front of his Jeep. He asked if he needed help or ride to which he obliged. Said he wanted to go to a town to sell some things he made and needed some things to take back. As i understand it he said the guy told him he only comes out once a year and lived in a type of shack he made. Ive always believed in feeal people as being the bigfoot many people see. It makes sense to me when people describe the smell and hairy appearance. Animal hides not properly tanned would have a terrific odor as ny buddy also stated about the man he gave a ride to.
If there are feral people living in the Appalachians they are probably in much better shape than the guy I saw talking to a school bus
If you can talk you're not feral
Right time, right mood, right tale from Steve.
This account of feral humans sounds like H.P. Lovecraft's "The Lurking Fear." Your account is every bit as creepy. I'm sure Lovecraft would approve of your take on the concept and your great narration!
Another hit. Love these feral people stories. Born in East Tennessee in Johnson City Tennessee I am a country girl through and through. Raised in NY but spent all my summers there. The majority of ny family is still there. Thank you for your hard work. Much love to you, Nicole and your beautiful son. G on d Bless.💞💞💋💋
Thanks for listening!
I just read this comment but I just seen this it , wait , ill get back to ya on this one i may be high
@@danielhall-wl4qlsame here 🤣✋
The all-time best and well spoken video I have ever heard on the topic of feral humans. I was always a firm believer that the government and military knew about these feral humans for many, many years. They downplay this but they always knew. They have restricted places in national parks for that reason. I don't care what anybody says...I am a firm believer there are feral groups out there who de-evolved over generations and inbred. Also...in uncharted wilderness, you don't know what else is out there that deep in the woods.
I live in east Tennessee and I always love the Appalachian videos!
I absolutely love this one Steve. Love the rain and listening to you tell the tales of your childhood. ❤ Congratulations to Nicole and you on the little guy.
Thanks for listening!
As someone who lives here in the Tennessee Appalachias, I heard about the ferals but I have NEVER heard about the “scorched earth” war against them.
This guy lives in East Tennessee and has family stories about the feral being hunted prior to the establishment of the national park: ruclips.net/p/PLKTzDz772yHHwOD-Ws-rX6pIAPkFXtlK_&si=mKOdxgRZC6yHMB7Y
@@TalesUntoldYT Thanks, I'm gonna check them out. You have the perfect voice for story telling, btw. Just thought I'd let you know. I love listening to you.
That's because it's horseshit. What most folks don't realize is that while the mtns of Appalachia are ancient, these forests are not. The vast majority were clear cut in the 20s and 30s. These forests have only grown back over the last 80 or so years. Hell, game animals have only become abundant again in the last 40 years. People have this weird idea that there are unexplored areas here, but it's just not true.
Horror articulated in a most eloquent fashion. LOL.
I have lived in the Tennessee/North Carolina mountains my entire life. I have personally never seen one of these feral people. All though I have heard the old timers telling stories about them.
If you are going to go camping/ hiking in the Smokey Mountains 90 percent of the time you are going to be safe. But always bring a gun with you. Never go hiking/camping alone. Always bring a dog with you. The dog will alurt you to anything weird. I personally don't sleep in a tent I sleep in a hammock. I off the ground and I can better react when something or someone is sneaking up on me.
Great advice esp the hammock part!! 💥
Good advice.
Nothing wrong with sleeping in a tent. Just set a alert wire around your campsite. And yes. Bring a dog.
Us locals don't seem to be the ones preyed upon lol, there is a reason for that we go prepared and know what not to do.
Thank you for all your work and research on your great videos!!! Much appreciated!
Soooo the movie, Wrong Turn, it's true???
I know the movie Deliverance was written about an actual event!
That's downright scary
It sure is! You should watch the original version of *The Hills Have Eyes* Directed by Wes Craven...much more realistic and it totally freaked me out!! And I'm 40..lol. I watched it a few months ago.
Google a guy named Gary Michael Hilton...
Unto these Hills gave me nightmares. I'm 81 but I saw it 60 years ago.
@user-yi5eh1ki4b I've not seen the movie. I'm 72... do you think if I watch it now I might pass out with fear? Or worse?
I've heard of the movie so I think I'll watch it before I kick the bucket l o l
My dad would not let me watch Deliverance when I was growing up. I think that part 🐖..scarred him for life 😂🤣
I didnt watch it until I became and adult...then I totally understood why lol.
Also, I found the original *Hills have eyes* right here in RUclips. I recommend watching it. 1000x more creepy than the remake! Much more realistic!
I'm from the backwoods and hollars of Kentucky, there were people still using coal for heat and had outhouses when i left in 2001, we hunted and would come across houses in the middle of nowhere, no power lines, still used a well with a bucket for water, our family went back a long time there so I never had any concern because I was one of those people
I've camped there before. I did get chased by someone. I pushed him from atop a switchback down to the other one. He wasn't feral in this sense but, he was a wildman. The owner of the campground saw him too. Said the guy made him feel uneasy.
I'm also from Ohio, was in my thirties, and was with my wife.
Wow Steve i really don't know how i missed this channel but im subscribed to this one too thank-you 💗
Welcome!
True and excellent stories❤
Not true, but fun all the same
Born and raised in Abingdon VA. I was raised up far back in the woods no neighbors for miles. We played in the woods all day never gave a thought that someone or something would get us. I still live in the woods I was never a person that wanted to live close to anyone We heard scary stories of things in the woods but the next day we was out there again
I'm originally from Rush, Ky. My dad was raised on a farm up a holler there. Several of his sisters and him have told stories of a mountain man who lived in the hills behind the farm. I vividly remember two of my aunts and some of my cousins telling me stories about seeing the man and what he looked like.
This was incredibly well written and well read. Very much enjoyed this, got a new subscriber.
Thank you!
You don’t need to go deep into Appalachia to find feral humans. Go to any British council estate. Btw, Steve Stockton? Subscribed!
First time listener. Now THAT was creepy and well read. Subbed!
Thank you! Welcome in!
Only normal people left free and wild.
😮 No, did you not hear the description of these creatures? They are not "normal" people, they're mutant inbred freaks who will hunt you like a deer or raccoon.
Steve you are just perfect at this and are a nice grateful human being god bless
Excellent presentation, thanks!
You're very welcome! Thanks for watching!
I lived in the valley in Oldfort Tennessee. Off of 411 and some nights ya got the feeling not to go outside let alone look out your window. If it gets very quiet at night and then ya hear every hunting dog in the air from miles around.... Ya just get ya but in your place and lock down because something or someone is creeping around.
Thank you. Excellent.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Great channel my friend. Blessings to you
Thank you! Blessings to you and yours as well!
Living in Haywood, and Transylvania counties, there are some places I still won't go unless I'm armed and with at least two other folks.
Stay safe 😮
Down in Florida we have people that live in the Ocala national forest in what we call compounds that unless you know at least one of them and how to approach them they will kill you and make tools from the bones and whatever they can use someone in one of the compounds invited me to take them home for a festival they were doing and when we pulled up to the gate he yelled out something to let them know who it was because they had fully automatic weapons and very well armed and they trained every 2 weeks for a invasion I found out they were all really nice to me and everybody was on some kind of drug I woke up 3 days later with 2 girls I don't remember and had to find my truck and let them know I was leaving cuz they keep count of how many people are there in case someone goes missing most of them were like normal people and some had things wrong with them from I think inbreeding like a guy didn't feel any pain so he would get into fights let the person ware themselves out and then jump on them he was one that I stayed away from but all of them took care of me and while you are there they share everything so if you need anything they will make sure that you get it the ones that never leave don't even want to be paid because they don't use money if you need anything you just get it they farm and take care of each other and live off the grid it was definitely a experience years ago that I'll never forget oh and when hunting or tracking they where putting on dead animals skins and skulls to hide their smell and body that's why when people see them they look like a beast but they will give you warning to leave before they get violent but they are weird about their land and have hidden places all in the woods and know how to move around without making much sound
How could they afford fully automatic weapons if they are forest people with no income? Autos are crazy expensive even if you get them illegally.
Love your work Thank you
You are so welcome! Thanks for watching!
I love your voice. I could listen for hours.
Thanks for listening!
Really good storyteller, and I love the rain background!
Thank you so much!
Good story telling
Great narrating and atmosphere!
Thank you kindly!
Heyyy Steve! Forgot you had this channel❤
Heya Caz! Thanks for listening!
Thank you Mr Stockton.
Found another Steve Stockton video site…AWESOME!!
Welcome aboard!
Oh my God these stories will haunt my dreams forever more.
That's y I carry my pistol and bow and hunting knives. Never go in the woods without protection
I just started watching the Outsider series.
Thanks!
Thank you!!!
Well Told ! B.
Hi new here, I'm from Florida but have spent over half my life coming to Asheville to visit my family for holidays and summers and whatnot, I'm pretty adventurous so I've done a lot of hiking and rafting in the Natahala and was wondering if that story is true?😳 I don't mean to be rude or anything I'm just new to this channel and am not sure if these are supposed to be true stories or not, kinda hoping not because now I never want to go back to Natahala😂
pumpkinheads gonna get ya !
The movies "wrong turn" comes to mind. Hollywood tells you the truth through these indirect stories
Yep
Yes, for sure, it's called predictive programming. Stay safe 😊
If you're a gullible idiot.
Inspiration for the film, Wrong Turn, sounds like 👍
I moved to the Appalachian Mts in Tn. My closest neighbor asked me do i carry, i said yes, he asked what, i told him a Springfield full body 1911 45cal loaded edition. He told us always be armed, there are bobcats, bear, coyotes. And sometimes people.
Well scared the sense out of me.
Hope they aren’t like the people from The Hills Have Eyes.
On a podcast ferals deformed tried to enter locked camper van seen by returning hikers another seen eating swollen human arm terrifying two separate ones
I''m Australian. Our bush andoutback is as creepy as you get. Hence the many movies. You sint have to go far to come across people who are into nefarious activities, wapecially at night.
26:57 "Primal Hunger" is such a good description
They were eaten 😮
Hiking in Europe is rather boring, if you enter a wood on one side there´s a very big chance you leave it unharmed on the other side.
No bigfoots, boneeaters or feral people.
Could this be a way to keep people from moving to such a gorgeous place?
As a 24 year old Army Lieutenant SF, we often went into areas like the Smokey Mountains training and learning to live off of the land. Beautiful land deep off of the trails.
I heard another story a yr. or two ago. About what looked like cave people coming out of the woods around Cades Cove. I remember that one man was shot with an old type of arrow. Park patrol managed to shoot one of the cave people with his gun. Then more arrows started shooting at other guests in the park. More park people started shooting back. Some Cave people got hit. Then more cops/military swarmed Cades Cove. The man who was shot with the arrow was taken to the hospital & of course, the big heads swore him to secrecy, along with any other visitors left at the park. All the cave people were rounded up & taken away. Bet we will never know where!!
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
The narrator call these humans feral, evil etc without irony. But it is us the civilised Homo sapiens that are going deep into the forest, where they live, and gunning them down with gunships, even though the creatures are unarmed and not subject to human laws. If you want to talk about ritual, the military is one of the most ritual heavy organisations in the world.
I don't go in the woods without a weapon anymore. Too many people go missing.
I've done some research on this story, didn't find any record of such events.
Are they INSANE?? You don't give a serial killer a sentence allowing for the possibility of parole!! At least that was changed in the end.
❤
Abduction would make sense to explain people just vanishing.. Clothes and all.
I live in northwest Georgia, and about an hour from the foothills. I've personally seen 2 blue people since I've moved up here. The first was at an apple orchard in cartecay. He stood nearly 7 foot tall, and was as blue as his jeans. The second was an attractive blonde woman, walking the side of the interstate. At first i thought she was covered with tattoos, until i got closer, and saw she was a blue as the man i saw years earlier.
Wow! Thank you for sharing!
This episode of "Tales Untold" is fascinatingly scary.
The prehistoric story about the feral humans of "Great Smoky Mountains National Park" did not end with Dennis Martin in 1969, and still continues.
Are "feral humans" the same ones who if you hear your name being called in the Appalachian wilderness, go in the opposite direction from where you hear your name being called and act as though you didn't hear your name being called, for your safety: ruclips.net/video/3WHf50rhZlw/видео.htmlsi=L77Ql2c_xF0YqVoH?
We've got Ferals here in NSW. The live in Katoomba!
And don't forget de lithgowites too
Oh my gosh that voice.
No feral humans in Cades Cove. It's 35 miles from Walmart.
I live in the middle of the Pisgah national forest, on the cusp of the Linville gorge. It's the same here. People are super gullible.
@@STOB-STICKSON Beautiful area in which you live.
@@bobberguy1 it's definitely that. Wonderful if you're into outdoor activities 😀 Cades cove is gorgeous as well. And y'all have elk! Kinda jealous. Lol
They kind if paid homage to this in an episode pf TWD where 2 characters are trapped in a house inhabited by a fanily of ferals hunting them through the walls and corridors.
Reminds me of the game resident evil 7 where it's like texas chainsaw massacre cause it's crazy cannibal hillbilly family trapping a dude and you have to escape as him
Nice use of big words❤️🔥
I could see this happening.i would however think in this day and time, heat seeking technology would easily eliminate most if not all of these feral beings. No one can narrate as well as Steve Stockton!
Sounds like he's describing my ex wife's family.🤪
Great stories, thank you!
Thanks for listening!
MTG's folks?🤔
Heart She Holler was a documentary.
Too scary
Looking for background a search for the missing "Amanda Willis" or "Amanda Willis disappearnce" yielded nothing. Anyone have a source for more info please?
How tf have I never heard any of this before?!!
My neither.
This is my bloodline, I'm in these mountains
I found you again Steve Stockton.
I'm also back on Missing Persons Mysteries. That's my channel now, too! 😎
I’m sorry, but if you ignore the locals warnings about places you should not visit, or hike through.. Then you are putting yourself in SERIOUS‼️
They are real but only people not from the Appalachian mountains get
Check out the movie wrong Turn
They sound like the Sentinel island people
