☠︎ Found the secret easter egg in today's video? Be the 1st to comment what it is and where it occurs in the video, and you will get pinned!! ☠︎
14:26 Jason mask on the bell
wow you are fast! you got this 6 minutes before anyone else did, well done!
Dang I was looking so hard for that good spotting
Just noticed it too. 😭
Ahh I was sorta close! Good job though!
@@MrBallen I even made sure my time stamp wasn't 1 second early like last time! TWO TIME CHAMP!!!
I have my own experience with hearing a bell at night in the forest....when I got out of the military, I spent 6 months working on a ranch outside Whitefish, Montana. While there i spent alot of time cross country skiing, climbing and camping in the Bob Marshall Wilderness. One weekend I took off by myself with plans on camping that night and then climbing this mountain on the continental divide the next morning. That night it dropped to -8 F with an snow/rain/sleet mixture. while curled up in my tent I kept hearing footsteps and a bell ringing sounding like it was circling my camp area. It would come and go for minutes at a time almost the entire night.....being alone it was pretty creepy.. it really felt like I was being stalked so i slept with a glock 21 right next to me. Early next morning maybe 430am, I got out of the tent, ate, packed up and headed towards the mountain. Not a quarter mile down the trail i hear that same damn bell....I look over and to my horror............................. it was a fucking cow that had obviously gotten separated and was just walking around grazing the spots where grass was still coming out of the snow.🤣🤦♂️
But was it truly a cow? I mean the large wolf story also seemed crazy weird and got even weirder later on...
this is seems a little unreal... because didn't the cow speak? like at all? not even 1 moo?
@@localchibigameuser9732 for what its worth, I assure you im not bullshitting. I never heard any sound that resembled a moo or any other animal noise. I just heard the crunch of snow and occasional bell ringing.
The first thing I thought of was a cow while listening to this story.
LOL
Bella obviously wasn’t the brightest human ever born. “Since I saw a mangled beaver and heard some weird bell last time, this time I think I’ll go alone again-but in the dark.”
I just saw a freakin perfect cutted headless beaver and an unknown bells…..anyways so to the lake!
The university she attends has file a lawsuit to keep her from saying she is a student there.
@@GrislyAtoms12 prove this or bullshiat
@@GrislyAtoms12 btw., this is in europe..not the USA...you can't file a lawsuit bcs of such ridicolous BS..but i am openthat you prove it to me lol.
Bella needs a gun if she’s gonna do this kind of stuff.
Bella’s dad is the main character lol , guy hears his daughter is in trouble and charges towards a crazy bell in the dark to save his kid.
Hahahaha
its actually scary how good he is at describing every minuscule detail
Maybe he was there with the bell💀🤣
@@tarzan7506I was about to comment this exact thing lol
Well, he wrote the script
In story format
It’s not surprising he caused the deaths of all the people who die in the stories
"Why don't I just casually stroll around the woods at 6pm. What could go wrong."
- Every horror movie protagonist ever
I often casually stroll through the woods at even later times and nothing has ever happened to me.
@@eftheusempire But it always can happen, so one should take precautions because once it does... well, it could easily be your last trip there. Doesn't matter if you're a man or woman, the woods are a dangerous place, especially at odd hours like that or once it becomes dark.
You can always stumble upon a maniac, drunk/druged person, or into a wild animal. Wolves, bears, bobcats, poisonous snakes are common in most forests or wood areas... Nvm that, you can also fall, slip, hurt yourself into a trap etc and have no one to help you or get lost/disorienrated due to the fog, similar looking trees etc.
So be wary of your surroundings, possible dangers, and always have something with you to help you fight and locate you...Always go with other people and into places you know. It's better to be safe then sorry.
@@eftheusempire **nothing happened "YET". Dont go into the woods. You dont want to be Mr Ballen next story
@@OneThiRD595 YE
Catch This L
Plus it was raining and she should have turned around as soon as it clouded up but.......NO. It was a duh moment for her. Not a credible story. Any female walking around in the woods alone could be in danger from some A-Hole with bad intentions.
"If you got something out of today's episode..."
Uh ya, high blood pressure, anxiety and paranoia right before bed is what I got. Thanks lol.
You must have just finished listening 10 min before I started! Goodnight Candy.
@@alexnelson6196 nice
High blood pressure?
Lol candice, I'm with you there, this story had a very dreadful feel to it, and this guy explains the story's so good that u can literally put your self into the story
@@Dream_Spark Yes...
Bella is the main character in every horror movie. She consistently tempted fate to the point that I started routing against her Lmao
Fr fr. There’s fuck around and find out, and then there’s fuck up and finish up lol
Hey I heard a bell and found a surgically decapitated beaver that WAS JUST killed. Nah, it’s cool
Sounds like a perfect time to go on a late night walk 🥰 @@colleens1107
Jason Himself could've came out of that lake Bella would've still went back in dark 🤦🏽♀️
Rooting?
Just once I want a story like this to end with "The stalker didn't realize that the person they were hunting was a Navy Seal, and was promptly dispatched with extreme prejudice."
Good one.. not
You mean “and was promptly aroused by the possibility of an “at sea” romance taking place”?
Susan. The nurse who beat the shit out of an assassin and killed him with a hammer. I heard about it on this channel I believe
Yeah, I'm thinking the whole time, run TOWARD the thing instead of away from it.
Or just anyone who is smart enough to carry a firearm lol
Forest monster: "sweet a handbag.... Im going to put my beaver in it."
🤣🤣🤣
Must not have been room for the T-shirt
He was just tryna bring her purse back to her!!!
And he was practicing his taxidermy skills and SO PROUD of his work that he wanted to hang it up and admire it...
She left him a parting gift lol
Forest monster: "sweet a handbag.... I'm going to put it in my beaver."
Mr ballen "if you got anything out of today's episode"
Me-yeah I got fuckin anxiety lol
LOL same!
pls this video scared me more than every horror movies i've ever seen 😭
More like fuckin nightmares
🤣🤣🤣
Yo ! This shits crazy! Mr. Ballens stories get my heart feeling like its gonna jump outta my chest!!
Lmao !😳
Then a stranger appears. Just when Bella thinks he's gonna save the day, she hears, "do you know how to get to Bell's Canyon?"
Dude, i heard that saying in this strange voice from the video😂 holy sh!t😂
😂
YES.
hahaha i just watched h the is video
BAHAHAHAHA!!!! YES!!!
the monster when bella got to her father: understandable, have a nice day.
The monster: I was close tho! I almost had ya!
His ability to drag out a story but still hold your attention is uncanny...
Right... sometimes I'm like ..."get on with the story"... but then I'm also largely intrigued by what will happen next.
Extended too much in this one IMHO
I love all the small details he gives, these types of stories are usually very vague.
psy ops army... hes one of th men who stared at goats lolol
Hell yeah!
The amount of anxiety this whole thing gave me is unbelievable. That's how you know if someone is a good story teller.
There was something about this story that really freaked me out.
It's probably related to the overwhelming fear I feel while being chased even in a video game 💀
Me too, and I don't scare easily.
I was v anxious, until I got distracted by thinking about how the forest freak had a bell and her name was Bella. If her name was Crystal, would the forest freak have a huge crystal tied on a rope around his waist? What if Bella was a guy named Lance? My head was busy thinking up different names and objects for the characters.
It makes you feel like you're IN the story
I couldnt sleep at night later, thats how scared I was...and I am more than 30 yo.
I consider myself a very brave person I don't get scared easily. But this one had me SHOOK. It sent chills down my spine for like 5 minutes straight and my cat looked over at me like she could feel the fear. Hats off to you man you do a remarkable job telling these people's stories please never stop.
I am not either, but it's the way this guy tells stories. Every miniscule detail, he describes it so perfectly. The only things that could make it creepier would be if he slowed his pace and had a deeper voice (that one isn't very changable)
You seem to get scared quite easily.
You sir, scare quite easily then. 😂
It was demon. Tall, moving unnaturally, very fast, doing terrifying, frightening and extremely weird stuff. Yep, hits all the marks. There are no unnaturally moving giants in the woods as giants were hybrids, who were destroyed. Also tall humans are usually clumsy and they aren't so fast, unless it's sportsman. I'm like 99% that this was a demon who appeared in physical form and he purposefully made all that setup with beaver to scare that woman to death or posses her maybe. People usually are too narrow minded, that's why they instinctively exclude everything "paranormal", even if the evidence was front of their eyes. 😉
PLOT TWIST: it was actually just a tall person who enjoys hunting and keeps a bell ringing to scare off any bears, and when he saw the girl he tried to hand her an umbrella but for some reason she kept running
"kid, slow down, It's raining, WHY ARE YOU RUNNING, I AM GIVING YOU UMBRELLA"
Explain the beaver head? 🦫
@@kround4782"Why you running? Why you running?"
Gee spoiler alert
Yup
RIP to that beaver that got beheaded for this scary story
ok
Ever eat beaver. Furless is the best to eat.
You scare me Mustache man
@Roth Asta fake and bland enough for you to leave a fake and bland comment? Go watch more 5 min crafts chuck.
Was it you
I can literally see in my head everything this dude is saying. He is an amazing story teller....wow
I swear
I totally agree he is amazing. When he tells a story we are in it!
I can a bit lol
Now that you mentioned it, it seemed like a dope movie when i was imagining it lol
@@elprofee2937 Agree
Currently being homeless living in an abandoned house in the forest. After watching these storys every crack and unidentified noise becomes extremely upsetting. I love it
Omg you westerners are weird
This is why I always go into the woods with my good ole pal mister gun
I wouldn't even go to woods im not familiar with unless i got my dogs n i mean at least 2 or 3
Yep, me and my pals, Mr. Smith and Mr. Wesson 😂😂😂
I like how he starts looking from side to side when he says how Bella was looking around. He really gets into the narration.
He really does an awesome job.
Yea
The fact that she is even alive at all is astonishing. There’s so many bad choices made in this story. Like this could’ve easily turned into missing 411
Idk it could be false from the description of it being tall and if the bell was moving correlating to its steps it should’ve have been way faster and able to catch up to her but ig we really don’t know
I mean I’m pretty sure that was like stock audio of a bell so I’m sure that’s not what it sounded like
@@zillidisplays7983 Guys, this story is taken from Reddit...
@@hristol7537 Thank you! _"unverified first hand account from Reddit."_ It's a great story and all, but, that's all it is - a story.
@@djackson9247 yeah exactly. this and the "bells canyon" one are such obvious bull shit tales it blows my mind that people believe them
"Don't Fear the Reaper" ... It was Will Ferrell practicing his SNL "More Cowbell" skit in them woods then.😂
12:00
Idk why but this image of a beaver suddenly taking all the screen made me laugh way more than it should have
look at its eyes they're clearly stoned
Man, if you ever hear bells in a forest you should immediately think 'those are cultists, I am going to depart'.
THIS. FUCKING. THIS. EXACTLY.
Bro exactly whenever I hear weird shit when I'm in the woods i immediately turn around bc i don't want to be sacrificed
Do not fear the bell in the woods fear the creature that answer it's call...
The bell use to be used to ward of evil but more Celtic in origins bit like when you find windchimes in the woods or church bells. The bell and being near running water would suggest in some circles pure life and rejuvenation while removing harmful entities from the area.
THATS WHAT I SAID
Thankfully, i live in America, so cultists wouldn't be much of a problem.
"Dear diary, I tried to tell a girl I liked her today, But I think she took it the wrong way, I beheaded a beaver, I rang a bell at her, I sewed the beavers head back, I don't know how much clearer I can make myself..."
Dear diary *BUM!*
😂
Hahahahah
Hahaha
MOØŒŒŒÔ
In my little town of Beverley in the North of England, which has a great deal of Medieval history and ghost stories, the most famous one has bells too! Monks during the Black Death of 1348 would carry bells on the stretchers of the deceased and dying plague victims, so that healthy people would know to avoid them.
They were tasked with disposing of the bodies, as no-one else was willing to do it. Perhaps they also carried bells on the ropes around their waists, but from what I remember they were attached to stretchers. Legend has it you can still hear the bells today! 🔔 🔔 🔔
The ancient pub called: ‘The Monks Walk’ right outside of the Beverley Minster has a painting of a hooded figure carrying a bell. Apparently there are thousands of medieval bodies underneath the Victorian train station too!
That was absolutely terrifying. Glad Bella and her family survived!
They didn't. They never existed to begin with.
it’s fake bratha
The way you narrated about she sprinting, I actually felt myself being chased in the forest
I felt this comment to deeply lmaooo
Maaan...I started sweating at that point hahah
Omg same I was scared and my kids are asleep atm and I'm like do I wanna go to bed now.
Yep I
sammeeeee
The fact that he has a bell practically giving away his position makes the stalker/potential serial killer more terrifying. He's not even trying to mask his position. He's proud to let his victim know where he is and where he's coming from.
Its a fake story obviously (since it came from reddit with nothing verifying it). Tho i still enjoyed it as a fake fiction story like i would a movie or some other form of media.
EDIT: and yea there are obvious plot holes in the story but still i wasn't disappointed after watching this video
@@stirve674 Yeah, I actually know it's just a reddit story the first time it was uploaded. Most likely fake, but one of the best fake horror stories ever from this channel.
This comment just gave me the heebie jeebies 😳😬
If it was in Alaska I would bet the bell sound was from a bear with a hikers bell sticking out of its anus.
@Justan Notherguy bells aren't digestible.
This happened to me when I was in an oak forest in Transylvania... except it wasn't a bell, it was a man whistling a repetitive melody. Was kinda spooky, but it turned out to be an old goatherd whistling to his goats 😂
"Bella has a hard time accepting that" Bella also has a hard tiem with common sense!!
so she saw a headless beaver, heard some weird bells continously ringing and still decided to come back ALONE at night with a fcking thunderstorm? what a smart person bella is
Fr
I'd say sheltered, not stupid. She has no survival skills, so barely any survival instincts. Had this been my daughter, she'd be jogging in the dark rainy forest armed, and idk why Bella didn't use her phone flashlight unless this story is just way old. Too many feral people in our forests, not worth taking chances.
Fr
I would have been running out of those woods as so as I heard that bell let alone seeing a headless beaver, no way I would be staying around to become some freak food or trophy they will hang up on their wall.
it'd make a good movie though.
Reddit.
The craziest part about this story is someone choosing to casually and routinely walk over 4 hrs to and back to a lake deep in the forest.
Between the wild animals and phsychopaths and that apparently seem to frequent the forests i will not be going, and most certainly not by myself. 😭 now i Gotta add paranormal creatures to the list. It's not gonna happen.
Yeah, like WTF?... we have 24hrs in a day and you choose to spend 4 of it just randomly walking to a spot that you've seen and been to many times already? Also going there at a weird time, knowing that the sun is about to set in a few hours.
Personally, I'd be like... oh manmade lake, cool to see once, but I'd probably not return back in a long time.
If the story is true- a lot of this doesn't make any sense.
@@michaelangelo975 I don’t buy this one at all
You all are honestly some crybabies. I've been to forests many many many times, and i still go once a week. Shit can happened anywhere. Just because u heard a few stories, doesn't mean it MUST happen to you. If you rather waste ur life, than going outside, go ahead.
This has to be one of my FAVOURITE MrBallen story ever told.
I have recently found this youtube channel and man i have never listened to stories so immersed. Im like okay im gonna listen to this while im eat, then i have finished eating already and its impossible to stop listening. My time is consumed in a blink of an eye. I can see every detail of the story in my mind and almost as if im experiencing it myself. Dude has a talent
When he starts talking louder and faster, to raise the drama, he's really good at that. I never noticed that before. Great storytelling
He's one of the best. I forgot to breathe at some point lol.
Genius
Me too, I was almost as out of breath as Bella, and nearly as freaked out.
Mr Ballen is one extraordinary story teller. Would love to have him around on a camping trip to liven up the evening around the campfire.
The way they edit him taking his breaths while he’s doing that really adds to the suspense too. We subconsciously realize something isn’t normal and it adds to the feeling of unease as well. It’s really clever.
Or the rehearsals in front of the mirror.
The creature wasn’t chasing Bella, it was actually running away from a voice that kept asking “do you know how to get to bells canyon?”
Plot twist the creature throught she was bella of bells canyon
Lmao this never gets old😆
That story actually makes me want to go find Bells canyon, it's in Utah
Ha ha ha! I was looking for this comment!
Yah see I got this bell........
This is genuinely one of the scariest stories I'ver ever heard! I was freaking out just listening to you. I'm glad Bella and her parents survived that nightmare.
it’s fake brother 😂, the fact it was dark and thundering like come on
That is quite literally the scariest story I've ever heard on this channel.
Bell Monster: "Do you know how to get to Bells Canyon?"
Bella: 'Runs'
Exactly what I was thinking. Quite the bell theme from Mr. McBELLen. You better BELLieve it!
@@b3yonddr1v3n Bella could return back there for Christmas and sing jingle bells while running away. "Jingle bells, jingle bells, McBellen smells, Bella runs away..."
lol
That one creeps me out.
This comment should win this thread lol
The energy he used while narrating the running emitted off the sheer anxiety of the girl which we all were able to feel
Genius
This guy is absolutely brilliant 😌
I haven't found another person yet that tells a story as great as John. He conveys so many different emotions while telling the story and with such enthusiasm that it makes you feel as if you are experiencing it yourself. Thanks John! I've missed you!!
Yes! He’s the best at storytelling to really make you feel like you’re experiencing it. And the visuals are great too!
help i think im actually gonna cry im outside and its raining and im off the trail. listening to mrballen and im gonna fucking pee myself
i wont lie, this was by far the scariest for me. great story telling Mr Ballen
I live in a small town that doesn't have a forest, but it has a lot of open desert and haunted old mining towns all over. This story reminds me of a time I went out to one of those old mining towns and felt like my car was being chased by something. Then of course, all the hand prints on the back of my car when we got home didn't help. Thanks for the story sir, this one reminded me of that fear.
This reminds me of a time I was hiking out in the sierra nevada mountains. I was out alone in the woods looking for a campsite and I too started hearing an eerie bell sound. I paused to listen and couldn't hear any sort of pattern to the ringing. Right as I started to hike some more I heard the sounds of a large creature crunching the dry underbrush to the sound of the bell. As my adrenaline started really to kick up, a cow walked out from behind a tree. It gave me a sideways look and then its bell gave a merry little jingle as it bent down to eat a bit of wild grass. Apparently some ranchers graze their cattle way out in the backwoods lol.
People wear bells too when backpacking to alert bears of their presence.
Lol 😆 PHEW 😄
For a moment my heart was beating fast my friend..😅
Bro the story is fiction
Ha the way the cow looked at you, it sounds like the cow was spooked by yah.
From what I've learned from all of Mr. Ballen's stories. Never, ever venture into a forest, unless you bring at least a knife, a sword, a crossbow, a gun, a rifle, and some handful of grenades. And a satelital phone, plenty of food, water and a flashlight with tons of batteries. Otherwise, you'll be another Mr. Ballen's story.
Adding to list a RPG as well 😂
You'd be sure to end up in one of his stories if you just randomly appeared with a sword or a crossbow in a forest (but obviously on the side of the creepy villain) 😂
Don't forget a battalion of self-propelled artillery
Maybe also add to cart: A hammer, holy water, garlic, one copy of every religious book, climbing gear, a helmet, kneepads, wrist protections, boxing gloves, chicken feet, a nun chuck, a poney because poneys rule, a harpoon, a fishnet, the Flying Dutchman, duck tape, a first, second and third aid kit, a hazmat suit, a wizard's wand, breadcrumbs, and Chuck Norris.
I think a pistol and knife would be enough 🤣. A sword doused in holy water might be a good option too.
This was my absolute favorite story ever. I hope this was a genuine encounter
As a farmgirl my first thought would be a cow with a bell but this sounds more like a ritual or something she stumbled accross
It was demon. Tall, moving unnaturally, very fast, doing terrifying, frightening and extremely weird stuff. Yep, hits all the marks. There are no unnaturally moving giants in the woods as giants were hybrids, who were destroyed. Also tall humans are usually clumsy and they aren't so fast, unless it's sportsman.

People usually are too narrow minded, that's why they instinctively exclude everything "paranormal", even if the evidence was front of their eyes. 😉
14:40 the bell sound effect really does make this whole thing feel more intense.. idk why but that damn bell is making ME feel that sense of urgency like I'm the one who needs to run for my life lol
Yeah ... that feeling certainly rings a bell.

@@EJ_BBall You don't get it, do you?
I was injecting sarcasm into a story that is most likely untrue. No one goes out alone at 6 PM into a wooded area for a stroll that will likely take hours before getting back to the safety of their vehicle, especially in an area that will not be lit. And then seeing a beheaded beaver just before rigor mortise sets in and thinks it's OK to continue on even more? Especially when hearing a bell, a sound that's totally unnatural when alone in the woods? Sorry, but this is a story that's made to order for a campfire group of adolescent tweens while someone off in the dark starts ringing a bell.
She starts crying and pleading with her dad on the phone and her dad says, "GUESS WHAT?! I GOT A FEVER. AND THE ONLY PRESCRIPTION... IS MORE COWBELL!"
Anyone else start screaming “why Bella why?!” When she decided to go for a fun hike at 6pm?

I don’t know if it’s the bell or branches snapping, but the story telling mixed with the sounds really get me spooked. And I’m listening to this in the middle of the day in a very bright office. Lol keep up the good work, love the channel.
This is the first story I’ve heard on this channel that has actually frightened me. The way the story was told had my heart pumping and I was filled with anxiety throughout it
The moral of the story: Don't let your emotions for a manmade lake put you in a life-or-death situation. Always get home before dark.
Facts
Unprepared sure, but bushcraft is fun:)
Yes 👏🏻
The lesson that should be learned from this is. Never go anyplace without a flashlight and a gun.
@@TheGrimTruth2 struggle to get a gun in Europe unless you need it for work
the addition of background noises have just added a whole new level to this man's already legendary storytelling
Yes the timing of the cutting/chopping noise when talking about the head of the beaver being cut off got me for sure!
At first I didn't know those background noises were coming from the video, I was fricking out cause I though I was hearing strange noises coming from outside my house from the Windows, I Really gotta stop watching this videos late at night
I understand what you are saying, I personally don't enjoy them though.
I really enjoy them but they are creepy af and I want him to stop putting those but at the same time they make videos 10x better.
he's ben using 3d audio on his videos.. the amount of times I thought someone's been trying to break in and I've ran out with weapons half way through a video!..
Actually the fact that she did get safely home reveals fiction. Usually such encounters in missing 411 ends by police finding some bones.
The dad making me fricken cryyyyyyy . Thats a real hero❤
I could almost feel that thing chasing me. He sure can tell a story.
Of course he can
I know right... I even felt the father's fear. Just hearing her screaming and hearing the bell. Just going bounding head first toward her cries...
@@Newjerseyblows I was about to cry, it was like I was in her shoes and...speechless.
He's an amazing story teller and the fact that he doesn't put jump scares in his videos makes these so easy to watch/listen to
Yes. This particular story really got to me. Listening to this at night - bad idea lol!
Except when he uses voice changers and it’s 1 an catches you off guard

oh no he's done some jumpscares lol albeit unintentionally but still some of the images he uses are nightmare fuel
In navy seal ,i thinks he told this type of story to his seal's buddy..He is definitely a good story teller..
I love how some people are baffled at how someone would spend 4 hours solo hiking to a lake, but are fine with watching CZcams for endless hours by themselves.
I’ve spent days alone in the woods, my whole life was hiking, paddling, rowing, hunting, swimming, exploring, fishing, camping, diving, airboating, 4wheelin, basically Living.
I can't be attacked by weird bell monsters on CZcams 🥲
Nah people dont have a problem with spending your time that way. Its that you are in constant danger of the unknown
lmao that is two completely different unrelated things, anyone who decided to walk deep in the woods alone to cure a boredom needs to go to mental hospital.
@@jugg9140 are you serious? You must have zero appreciation for nature. Going alone into the forest for hiking or hunting or just camping and enjoying the solitude is a beautiful and spiritual experience. I rarely take people with me when I go into nature because they're annoying and discourage the birds from coming out with their talking. If you don't get it, you don't get it. The Universe is God and nature is church.
Wow! John is a phenomenal storyteller… I was completely enthralled with the retelling of this girls horrifying incident. This was my first video from him, and I look forward to watching more of them.
At least we hope that Bella is now safe from Shia LaBeouf
No one is safe from shia, unfortunately
Actual cannibal Shia LaBeouf?
Fighting for your life with Shia Labouf!
DYING!!!!🤣🤣🤣
Wait! He isn't dead (Shia surprise)
There's a gun to your head and death in his eyes
I love that her parents didn't hesitate to save her. And I know she felt immense relief when she landed in her dad's arms

This is BY FAR my FAVORITE mr.ballen story EVER ive listened to it over ten times! Keep up the great work Mr.Ballen!
heading into a forest at 6pm is insane
No worries Bella: maniacs, serial killers, psychopaths, and sociopaths don't hide in the woods and hunt human prey. Keep going out into the woods by yourself, and make sure you are at least an hour away from your car at night!
Exactly. Lol
@@deepbrar9750 She and her parents have got to be insane!
And worse when the weather is bad lol I never go to the woods if it's so much as cloudy :/
@@lobo53695
Bella is bat $h*+ crazy!
RIGHT?????? 😂
Stephen King always said, "It is the tale, not he who tells it". Not true. Mr King has clearly never listened to MrBallen deliver his stories, this man MAKES the story!!
So true!! I believe everything he did in his life brought him precisely to where he is now, in all of our lives!
Agreed, Michelle. He is fantastically engaging! I have no doubt that he could elevate even the most poorly crafted story to a mesmerizing masterpiece.
Steven king also doewnt make youtube videos. Hes pretty correct about novels, cause thats what he does. Im curious what he would think about this style of storytelling though, i like to think he would enjoy it like so many of us do
Stephen King really said that? Lmao I guess he's never heard my girlfriend or my sister take 9 years to tell a story before 😂
@@jamalginsburghasidichomebo6009 My mom is the same way. She also says "so forth and so on" a lot! Then she'll ask me "You know what they said?" Uh, no mom, I have absolutely no clue what they said cuz I wasn't there. 🤦♀️
Even after years of listening to other stories this one is my favorite still lol
He is the best story teller he brings U into the story and holds you there with visual representation.
We gotta appreciate this man bro stood in a creepy forest for 20mins amd told us a scary story
🤓: Actually that’s a green screen, you dumbo.
Exactly! Definitely not a green screen.
Definitely a green screen
@@HollowJack_666 r/woosh
He could've been the next scary story 💀
Suddenly the man comes out and say “do you know how to get to Bells canyon?”
Good one
Ah, that episode was terrifying
LMFAO!!!!
I was looking for this comment
I think it was Christopher Walkins in the trees ringing a cowbell 🤔
Gave me goosebumps. Kudos Mr.Ballen
It’s scary because you articulate the story so naturally I feel like I’ve walked this path my whole life
*Bella turns around*
"Do you know how to get to bell's canyon?"
Yup. That's good.
I want to find this place to
Lmaoooo yesssss.
🤣
LOL, that one stuck with me too.
This story was such a relief. I've heard so many stories that end badly bc people are too afraid to run in to save the day. Proud of her dad!!
I'm thinking it must have been some kind of Elemental.
Exactly, it was such a relief. Can't imagine the relief Bella felt when she leapt into her father's arms. ❤
I wouldve been driving through that road after all it's not public.
I had chills the whole time thinking if that was my daughter😳 I definitely would've done the same!!!
@@Kiwi_kiki15 if that was my daughter,, I would've gotten her few big dogs and guns to take on her adventure she's not allow to go to any woods without it. especially a place that is an hour of hike through that much trees.
I am hooked on MrBallen's stories. This one actually raised my anxiety!
Out of all of the videos I’ve watched from this channel this one freaked me out the most because I have a huge fear of camping for somewhat these reasons
MrBallen going to have us scared all October
Trying to gain more subs eh?
thats actually a good news for me..
Man I love my birth month
With Stupid Made up Stories Like this?!!!!!!!!!
And I’m so excited
Forest monster: “Damn this girl’s fast, ahh well i tried my best to return her bag. Thought for sure she would’ve heard my bell.”
“Ma’am ma’am!!!! You forgot your- oh damnit never mind. Why is everyone so scared of me? 🥺”
Lol🤣
hahahah.....that was good
😆😆😆 that was really good 😂
😂😂😂
I watched this year's ago now, and still to this day, it's the most chilling story I've heard from you. I couldn't imagine this happening 😭
She is my sister the girl in the video😭😭😭😭😭
You are definitely a terrific story teller. I absolutely love watching you. I watch you every single day. Thank you for sharing and doing the research on these mysterious stories
I love how graphically he tells the stories. As if you're experiencing it for yourself. Maybe I won't watch the next one at 3AM.
Naaaaah, you're fiiiiiiine...maybe.
It’s 5 am and I regret watching this rn
Ah my friend, you're probably fine......
Probably-......
Dude's insanely good at story-telling.......
Same 😂
Poor guy, he was only asking for directions to ‘Bell’s Canyon’.
I think about that one a lot honestly
Awww, could you imagine if Ballen ended the exchange with that?
Hahahaha!!! I remember that one oh my god 🤣
😂😂😂
I love that so much. Every video someone mentions it
That's why the parents rightly named her BELL 🔔 AA.😂
That's insane! I use to go to a similar area by a creek bed when I was 19-20 and I too heard a bell but with a bit of a lower tone than this one. Once I finally found out where exactly it came from I got startled and I can feel my adrenaline shoot up to my chest. My heart beat was extremely quick and hard my face had gotten flush 😳 There WAS a hunter just standing there. Half of his body "the lower half" was exposed by the sunlight but from his belly button and up was very dark and hidden by the cast of the tree he was standing near.. so I couldn't see his face features just a dark shadowy face. And I swear I froze "now thinking to myself I am a coward" but once he started to speak I trembled from the tone of his voice. All he said to me was.... Do you know how to get to Bells canyon. I ran... 😮 😂 Thanks for reading lol
dude this comment is amazing lmao my anxiety was high during this story so thanks for the good laugh
The sound of a knife cut while explaining the severed beaver's head is perfect! Gotta love the small sound effects. They definitely add to the drama.
And love how it gives us 100+ anxiety
seemed like a warning
the dead beaver is a death warning
my favorite line is "his steps weren't normal, they were ABNORMAL"
Oh no! _N-not the abnormal steps!_ 😱
Perhaps they were referring to an "Abby Normal"?
@Justice for Laundrie no fucking way show proof or isn't true
Whoa... wait, they were what?! 🤯
Timestamp next time ...
Mr. Ballen really got into this story!! Had me going! He has the knack!
If that happened to me then I probably would’ve passed out! Like that is so terrifying!
When he started talking about the first story, I was expecting something like:
"And as she followed this trail towards the river, a loud voice spoke out from within the woods asking, "DO YOU KNOW HOW TO GET TO BELL'S CANYON?"
How is this not on a t-shirt yet?
LMAO I don't know why that don't have a meme yet 😂😂😂😂
IM DEAD
Okay but what if those stories/creatures/beings were connected..

Mr Ballen, is an adequate person to tell stories in the most brilliant way. His animation with his body language, helps listeners stay captivated, while his voice in combination with his narrative, in every story I have heard is soothing and interesting. Thank you for your great and continuous service.
She made one smart move this whole story and that was turning around before she could get stuck having to navigate the whole trail in the dark
“She was not afraid ,she was intrigued” yea right thats how people die in horror movies
Me. 😂😭☠️
Imagine the bell was in between in this evil figure's legs and when that figure start walking its start ringing,when its walking quickly the bell ringing louder and louder😁😁
To be fair it's human nature. Look how many people go explore the beach when a tsunami comes.
Usually it's good and important... unless you're being chased. Like use your heart (intrigued/curious not afraid) but also use your brain (know when you're in trouble and don't be stupid about it!)
That’s what happens in horror games
It was smokey trying to warn her, "only YOU can prevent forest fires!"
😂
Especially when there is pouring rain, thunder and lightning -
🤣🤣🤣
Maybe it was someone trying to talk to her about her cars extended warranty.
Or it was the annoying scam callers wanting to talk to Bella about her vehicle warranty.
This is my fav story you’ve told. I genuinely felt like I was being followed by mr bell man with them.
That was the most gripping storytelling you've done, I think. Loved it!
Bella: *hears bell* "Hmmm. Intresting."
Me: *hears bell* "It's the bloody Wraith."
Dead by daylight be like
Soon as I saw the title of this video I thought about the Wraith 🤣
Lmao
Lmao yeah
im glad i wasnt the only one who thought this
'I'm bored - Let's go to the forest, alone, in the dark while raining'...I prefer to stay very bored in my home.
It probably is not that you are any safer with a partner, as the big monster can just kill both of you, but it feels better to be with someone.
Thank you 🤣🤣🤣🤣
XadowMonzter same!!!
@@janeaparis Depends on the partner but overall 2 stands better odds than 1, especially against a person
Lol, some of us are different
I've watched all of your videos and this one, along with "DO YOU KNOW HOW TO GET TO BELLS CANYON?" are my two absolute favorites. This one because it is terrifying and you made a simple reddit story so much more interesting by explaining it in your own way instead of just reading it word for word. Bells Canyon is great, bc it is scary and absolutely absurdly hilarious at th same time.
