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.🤣🤦♂️

@@xposuregaming6084 Not saying the story is true or fake but......I'm guessing you've never heard of bad things happening on dark nights where it is also storming? That may be a fairly standard story trope but just because someone's story takes place on a dark and stormy night doesn't mean their story isn't true, doesn't make it true but that doesn't prove it's false. Basically all I am saying is the weather and time of day that something takes place isn't proof that it is real or fake. I tend to get feelings like I am being watched when I go outside my house at night and sometimes I even get the sensation that whatever is watching me means to do me harm. Sure enough I never see anything but there is an old saying "Just because you can't see something that does not mean it isn't there." so whenever I feel like something isn't right I either get back in the house immediately or if I am on my way to work in the very early morning (around 3:30am EST) I am jumping into my car and leaving. Whether it is just an errant feeling or something genuinely causing that kind of sixth sense reaction in me, I don't play around, I always take it seriously cause you never know when someday, somehow, something could actually happen. Heck I have had instances where I thought there was someone in the house who should not be here and I have walked slowly through the house, turning on every light as I went and armed with my FN 5.7 with a bright light in my other hand to potentially blind whomever is here. Sure enough each time there was never anyone here. Now I am not a paranoid person, I am not run by my emotions, so if something causes me to react as though I am not alone and potentially in danger, I don't mess around, better to be on guard and my senses be wrong then not be on guard and my senses be right. IN SHORT trust your senses, trust what they tell you even if nothing bad happens just be safe and give them the benefit of the doubt, it could save you.

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!

Wonderful therapy to keep my mind busy and not focusing on my negative self-thoughts. I have learned more from mistakes and failures-sometimes my own and now, I am learning from others. I use to dread my son asking me for help and he cried wolf so much 😢- I started to ignore his calls-he’s 25 yrs old. I am so glad her parents didn’t ignore her. I am so glad Bella was okay. When I was a teenager, I loved going to places just like this. Who doesn’t love nature? It’s a shame we can’t enjoy it without being in danger, where we realize it or not.

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.

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.

It makes more sense that they just did this to multiple beavers.

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.

So if you can alert the bears of your presence long before you get too close to them, they won’t consider you a threat and will generally try to ignore/evade you. So many people will wear bells to alert the bears so no mauling will happen

As a short story of mine. I lived in a small town surrounded by a not too dense pine forest with lots of sandy trails since this town was built on a desert. Calling it a “forest” is probably an overstatement but it is still a forest. I knew the trails easily navigating to any point of this forest I wanted to be in and to any way out of it. Some day I decided to spice up my walks with some creepy music in my earphones. Easy to say I overestimated my courage and I really started sprinting down the trail as if a maniac is behind me, also considering there was a cloudy weather, so the lighting around me was dim, even though it was around 3-4 pm, and I felt instant relief making it to the normal road leading to the town. Needless to say, I never stepped into this forest again ever, thinking back about how stupid my decisions were… With that said, we often create our worst fear with our own imagination and it manifests because of the surroundings and the situations we create on our own. Bella choosing to continue walking in a dire weather didn’t help her either.

She kept herself calm for as long as possible, staying on her trail. Then, she called her parents and made a meet-up place. All this basically saved her life. I tell you, this one really freaked me out. It's that paranoia of the bell and something unknown following her. I was backed up against a corner so I could feel safe. I got chills.

I'd be willing to bet the person chasing this girl was an illegal poacher that was all about not getting caught and found out. The bell might have been a lure to a specific animal the poacher was trying to target, or it could've been to scare and intimidate people away.

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!

A couple years ago , on a weekend night.Trying to make a long lasting memory with my recent gf I told her to take a walk with me to the old cemetery about 2 blocks away. So we get there and sit on a concrete bench to talk and a couple minutes into the conversation I start hearing bells ringing , I thought to myself ,they can’t be from the church’s around the area because I’ve never heard them before, these bells sounded big but far away yet as we sat there the sound started getting louder until I finally asked her "do you hear those bells?” She said yea with a confused face and as we listened we both felt the ringing getting closer and closer , we just looked at each other and started running all the way back home. 😅

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.

In Europe, you'd not even worry hearing a bell in the woods or on a hike. Lots of sheep, goat and cows have bells around their neck and wander the forest all by themselves during the year. The beaver would have creeped me out though.

im pretty sure i would be worried. I dont know any animal thats wild with a bell around its neck. Obv cows etc but they are in a field with a fence and not in the middle of a forest :D

@@soggybeanie in the mountains here (Italy, France, Switzerland) cows and sheep usually wander without the fences, every hike (before the pandemic we hiked almost every weekend) you meet some, goats are really annoying when they get close to the road that reaches the starting point and basically block it. Those bells they have sometimes are kind of confusing (the fog, the rocks, and the trees combined change the way the sound transfers so sometimes you are not sure from which direction it comes), but generally i would just assume it's a cow being adventurous and not smth sinister

One of my all-time favorite stories on this channel. I had to revisit it because a park I visit near my home started up a bike-bell lending program for the mountain bikers that frequent it. It's a good idea because the bell jingles as they ride and warns hikers and horseback riders to avoid accidents. Unfortunately, it also means that now there are bells ringing out in the woods and all I can think is... run!!! 😂
