Did YouTube Vlogger Unknowingly CAMP NEAR LANDED UAP?

Maria Barrera aka Roaming Reckless is a travel vlog Youtuber. Since 2014, she and her dog, Blue, have been road-tripping across the US, all 50 states, and parts of Canada, in a 2007 Subaru.

"Living out of her car has become a way of life for Maria, who briefly halted the trip in 2020 due to the pandemic. She was forced to move back home with her parents in Michigan. In 2022, Maria upgraded to a 1997 military Land Rover Defender and re-started her tour. She has since amassed more than a hundred and thirty thousand followers on her channel with most of her videos getting upwards of a hundred thousand views each. Typically they consist of her driving through the day with her dog and then parking at some remote location, whereupon they camp out.

On November 7, 2022, Maria uploaded a video (filmed on October 27, 2022) to her channel called “Solo Car Camping in Creepy Wilderness | Blue's Birthday | Living in my Subaru”. It has nearly forty thousand views as of this writing. Maria has never once shown any interest in the paranormal which makes what happens in her video even more fascinating. Maria, herself, seems almost oblivious to it, and at no point intimates that it might be paranormal in nature. 

After celebrating her dog's birthday with a trip to Petco, Maria drives them to a remote forested area in Minnesota. She does not divulge the exact location for obvious reasons. She proceeds to take her dog for a walk. She is instantly struck by a sense of unease as she takes in her surroundings. “It's almost a little creepy out here which I never feel like that. I'm usually so good in the middle of the woods,” Maria says into her camera. “I don't know, maybe it's just because all those trees are dead out here. I don't know.”

Around dusk, she begins to cook her supper, using the tailgate as a makeshift counter. Her unease continues to grow and she finds herself constantly looking over her shoulder. “It's kind of eerie here, I'm not gonna lie. It's kinda creepy out here. I don't know. I'm not creeped out enough to move but it is, like, it's eerie. That's how I would describe it.”

As night falls, Maria decides to settle in for the night. The back of her Subaru was converted into a sort of tiny living room complete with a bed, a dog bed, and a small counter for her laptop/TV.

Things suddenly get weird as Maria finds herself waking up in the middle of the night. She indicates that there is a bizarre unsettling noise coming from off in the nearby forest. “There's like a whirring sound outside but there's literally zero wind,” she whispers into her camera. She contemplates what it could be but is at a loss to explain it. She soon wonders if it's just her brain playing tricks on her.

It should be noted that at no point does she indicate that it might be a UFO or something paranormal. Though the sound unnerves her enough to declare that they would be moving on from the location first thing in the morning. “I was gonna stay here for a couple days but I'm probably gonna head out in the morning because now I'm hearing sounds.” The only thing putting her mind at ease is that her dog is not reacting to the whirring noise at all. “I do kind of use him as like a warning system like if he starts perking up and freaking out, I'm like, Oh, okay, possible danger here.” She continues to look around, confused by the noise. “It's like we're in the creepy version of the Hundred Acre Wood (referencing Winnie The Pooh children's books), you know what I mean?” Afterward, she manages to fall back asleep.

Anyone familiar with ufology will note that the whirring sound is a prominent fixture in a large number of reports involving people who encounter UFOs. Is it possible that Maria accidentally parked her car near a landed UFO? Might this explain her apprehension throughout the day? And could the whirring sound she heard that night actually be the sound of the object departing? Who knows?

Welcome to Phantoms & Monsters 'Personal Reports' - cryptid & unexplained accounts directly from the archives of Phantoms & Monsters, and the Phantoms & Monster Fortean Research team. Narrated by Lon Strickler. Join us in the chat, discuss, and ask me questions about the accounts.

Featured in this edition:

The real history of the term ‘Ouija’ is a bonafide mystery. But the Ouija board developed out of 19th century America's obsession with spiritualism, the belief that the dead can communicate with the living, and the practice wasn’t seen as bizarre or weird. But I truly doubt that the first Ouija board makers envisioned that they had created a divination tool that seemingly opened the gates of Hell!

Ouija's prolonged success has carved a niche into American culture. But it has also created fear and fascination along the way. Like all divination tools, I treat it with great respect, especially since my own harrowing experience in 1976.

So, please listen to what I have seen, read, and heard over the years. Maybe you will come away with a better appreciation and deference when delving into the unknown. I will present the reports in detail and attempt to answer your questions from the chat room.
