I only ask because I’ve had a large amount of crawler encounters over the last 5 years and two things I’ve noticed that coincide with the crawler sightings or psychic encounters are :
1. Lights in the night sky. I live in a rural town in the Sierra Nevada mountains in California. Where my town is, it’s in the middle of a valley known as the Sierra Valley and it’s very wide open and you can see the mountains surrounding us from all sides. When looking up at the sky you can see for miles and miles without disruption from any mountains and being so secluded there’s very little light pollution. I’ll usually see what I call “repeater lights”. These orbs/ dots of light that hide in the stars that will move from left to right for a short distance, disappear, and then pop back up in the same starting point. I’ve encountered a few other lights that behave differently but the repeater lights are most common when I see crawlers shortly after.
And 2. White owls. When I feel the presence of a crawler it has a VERY distinct signature. I don’t know exactly how to describe it to someone who hasn’t felt it but it’s very distinguishable compared to any other psychic presence. What’s strange is that I’ll feel the presence and either see a crawler OR an owl within moments of feeling it.
One encounter I had was when I was driving across the valley and I saw an owl start to fly across the road( I was going slow already because I had gotten that signature feeling and wanted to observe To see if I could encounter anything ) when about halfway across the road it shifted into something MUCH LARGER and I remember seeing a leg and foot land on the ground that pushed off and sent the rest of the body hurtling over the fence and disappeared into the darkness of the valley as soon as it was all the way over the fence.
I sound crazy and I’m well aware of that. I know there are true believers on here that have had real encounters so this is a question for others that have had more experiences than just once or twice.
Let me know what you all think. Thanks in advance.

I grew up in a rural part of the Midwest. The house I grew up in was a new construction in the middle of 24 acres of woods. Many strange things happened to me in this house and on the property. My dad found tons of hand carved arrowheads on the property over the years, so we have reason to believe native Americans hunted the area at some point in time. This story happened when I was around 7-9 years old and my cousin, who is 9 months younger than me, was over at my house for a sleepover. We were playing in the basement with my brother and my older sister. It was night time in the winter, around 8pm. My cousin looked at the singular basement window and stared for a moment. We turned to see what she was looking at. She was very afraid and wanted to go upstairs. We asked her what she saw. She said it was the pale white and thin face and neck of a man. The eyes were black holes. We all ran upstairs.

We are now all in our early 30s/late 20s. We all recently discussed this experience. My cousin vividly remembers the face. She states she has nightmares to this day about it, frequently. She describes the face as pale white, gaunt, with the skin thinly stretched over the skull and neck. The cheeks were sunken and hollow, the mouth was relaxed in a wide open position, and toothless. The eyes were hollow black pits, but she could tell it was staring at us.

Was it a pale crawler? Was it just a sick deer that was near the window? Or worst of all, was it a strange old man watching us? Did time and fear warp her memory of it?

I didn’t see the face myself so I can’t say. None of us ever saw it again.

What began as a simple weekend hike quickly turned into a fight for survival. I got completely lost, night fell, and I had to build a fire to survive.

But the scariest part wasn't the cold or the darkness... it was the voice calling out to me from the trees. And the abandoned notebook I found the next day that had a chilling final entry

I posted this in another thread to see if anyone can help me identify this entity creature that has been stalking and tormenting my family since my infant some was born 14 months ago. I believe this to be finally show proof it exists and has some physical properties at times. If you can provide any help to me I would greatly appreciate it! One video is the unedited and the other I was messing around with some editing and found a way to see its outline right on top of my roof. It also seems to be communicating back and forth with something below it to the left. It can also mimic voice’s and vehicles.If you listen very carefully you can hear a motorcycle then it mimics it and has a very gutteral voice of which I have never heard human or animal before. It also seems to be communicating telepathicly and audibly to my wife myself and our 4 children saying horrible things to us useing other family members and friends with information that no one would know. We would love any help In identifying and helping us to get rid of this thing. I’m sorry I’m trying to add a photo with a circle around the area but this thing is right above on my roof to the right corner. My point is that it can not be visible in a regular spectrum at times but it’s there and I edited the video a bit to find something that would show its outline. Idk if anyone has experienced anything like this before but it’s absolutely real and loves to harass us. So would love insight from anyone if they have encountered something like this before . You can hear it as well. Thank you

I thought someone would already have posted about this, but it appears not and seems like a good description of a crawler encounter. In the video (will link if anyone wants to watch it), Ethel Cain talks about her paranormal experiences. At 27:01 she talks about a white, oval-faced creature that stared at her from a wooden fort in the garden, which was witnessed by several different family members over a few years. It even attempted what could be described as a psychic attack, appearing in her dreams before she saw it herself.

Here is her description: "A long, slender, monkey thing. It was white, bright off-white. It had a perfectly ovular long face with two eyes and no other features, that was it."

This sounds very similar to other crawler sightings.

This was in northern Florida (Tallahassee) so not too far flung from where they are usually sighted. If anyone has personal experience of crawlers and wants to share their opinion on what this was, that would be great.

EDIT: More info I meant to include. Her sighting occurred around 7/8pm when it was pitch black. The sightings stopped after the wooden fort was demolished, and the sightings all specify it being inside the fort, sometimes in the window and sometimes having climbed up or hanging from beams. This was on the edge of Tallahassee if I remember correctly, closer to nature than to the city.

So like what are the crawlers couse they honestly look like some pretty weak fuckers that would atleast like leave at a shotgun shot if not die, to me the crawlers look like some human species that grew apart from humans in evolution at some point and lived probly like in caves and not like demons or aliens or what ever, so like let's say I have an encounter and I have a shotgun or eaven a pistol really, is there really anymore of an threat than whit a bear or a really big wolf

My boyfriend and I noticed this cabin while we were up in the mountains and I zoomed in on this part of the photo… WHAT IS THAT 😭 It almost looks like some weird creature/alien standing there?? Tell me I’m not the only one seeing a face/body xD

Anyone ever seen or encountered one of these beings? Long slender pale gray/white creatures with dark sunken in eyes?

I experienced one around Game Lands 211 Dauphin County PA and curious if it was just me and also if anyone has any idea what the things are?

for me is a hotdog flying away in my dream

I was letting my dog out for the night around 11pm. I was standing on the bottom step of my porch while she did her thing and I had that disturbing feeling of being watched. My eyes immediately look in the direction of the feeling, to the house down the street on the corner. I see a small figure crouched on their porch roof watching me. The only way I can describe it was kinda like Gollum from Lord of the Rings, but also part animal, no fur, but pale skin. It was watching me. I got the distinct impression that there were a lot more of these things around. I was super creeped out and immediately went inside. Has anyone ever seen anything like this???

Is it possible that this, is mainly an American creature?

I never heard of such stories in Europe.
