Texas UFO: Two Died, One Survived. Why?

Texas UFO: Two Died, One Survived. Why?

On December 6, 1997, a search party found a pink trail of blood hundreds of feet long in an Eastern Russian forest, leading to a cabin door smeared with a dark, frozen stain. What happened in those five days between a hunter's bad decision and the terrifying discovery that changed what "hunt" truly means?

In this episode, we delve into the chilling story of Vladimir Markov, a hunter in the Russian Far East, and the inexplicable events that unfolded after he took meat that wasn't his. Discover the details that defy rational explanation and leave investigators with only one terrifying conclusion.
