Chet cook was driving late at night through rural Maine when he saw a mysterious shadow in front of his car.

He didn't see or feel that he had hit something, but the idea kept pestering him, and he looked at the dashcam footage when he got home. When he revised his route, he saw something much more sinister than a deer.

"As I was watching my ride, trying to find the spot where the deer was on the road, I saw a shadow darting in front of my car," said cook, an it worker.

"I was shocked. I watched the video over and over again, the hair stood up on the back of my neck," he continued. "I don't remember seeing this last night."

Cook said he was so alarmed by the sight that he sent his dashcam video to 207 Paranormal, a local Ghost hunting group, to see if they could identify the figure or point to some supernatural presence.

After the group shared the video with their followers, some went the logical way and claimed it was a bear, a deer or a big cat. However, others thought it was something else.

"For all the people who say it's a live animal, you can clearly see that it's transparent throughout the video," said one of the group's followers.

Regardless of what theory the group puts forward, cook says living in rural Maine means getting used to these unnatural species.

"When you're alone, traveling at night, Maine can be very intimidating," he said. "There's a reason a lot of Stephen king stories happen here."

Cook said that given the state's rich history, there are many traces of its past.

"There are many old cemeteries with tombstones that are hundreds and hundreds of years old," he said. "One of these cemeteries near where I live is known for its pampered nature. Because the stones are very old, people RUB them regularly. That's when the supernatural manifests, " says cook.

"They will Park their car on the side of the road, and when they return, the car doors will be open, or it will move a few meters away."

Original news

A MAINE man sent his dashcam video to paranormal activity hunters to see what unidentifiable object sped past his car in the middle of a deserted road.

Chet Cook was driving late at night in rural Maine when he saw a mysterious shadow flash before his car.

He didn't see or feel like he hit something - but the idea kept pestering him to look at his dashcam footage when he arrived home. Expecting a deer when he later rewatched his route, he saw something much more sinister.

"As I was watching my drive, trying to find the spot where the deer was in the road, I saw the shadowy thing dart in front of my car," Cook, an IT worker, said.

"I was shocked. I watched the video over and over, the hair standing up on the back of my neck," he continued. "I didn't remember seeing that the night before."

Cook said he was so disturbed by the sight, he sent his dashcam video to 207 Paranormal, a local ghost-hunting group, to find out if they can identify the figure - or point to some supernatural presence.

After the group shared the video with its followers, some took a logical route and claimed it was a bear, deer, or big cat. However, others were reasoning it was something else.

"To all the people saying it was a living animal, you can clearly see that it is transparent throughout the whole video," said one of the group's followers.

Regardless of what theory the group confers upon, Cook says living in rural Maine means one has to get used to these unnatural sights.

"When you are alone, traveling at night, Maine can be most spooky," he said. "There is a reason that a lot of Stephen King's stories take place here."

Cook said given the state's rich history, there are plenty of markers of its past.

"There are a lot of old cemeteries with headstones dating back hundreds and hundreds of years," he said. "One such cemetery near where I live is known for its haunted nature. Since the stones are so old, people do rubbings from them regularly."

That's when the supernatural comes out, Cook says.

"They will park their car on the side of the road, and when they return, the car doors will be open, or it will have moved metres away."
