According to Navajo legend, Skinwalkers are a type of witch closely associated with underground gatherings. They are "wer-animals" and own an animal skin that is used to transform them into these animals. Any real animal can see through the skinwalker's disguise but even a human can recognize the unnatural creature. For some unexplainable reason even a well seasoned skinwalker cannot obtain the perfect animal gait or leave the proportionally correct sized animal tracks.
While the Uintah County region has a vast history of paranormal events that have been documented for over a thousand years, the highest concentration of events has always taken place at the spot we now call the Skinwalker Ranch.
According to locals in the area, members of the Ute tribe are forbidden from stepping foot on the property, believing it to be cursed generations ago by the Navajo who had been forced from their land by the US Army, and the Ute tribe who was working with them.
There are well-documented sightings of UFOs and strange lights, enormous wolves and various unexplainable creatures, Sasquatch, poltergeist activity, cattle mutilations and disappearances, and much more.
Is this ranch a gateway to another world, a cursed land, or something else? Join us as we delve into the mysteries in part one of our coverage of the Skinwalker Ranch.
