What are skinwalkers

The movie "skinwalkers" that opened yesterday shows them as boring vampires, but this article: dailygrail.com... about skinwalkers in Utah says something very different. So, what are skinwalkers?

Here's a little reading BrainTrust.

Skinwalkers: What are they?

Skinwalker ranch.... Skinwalkers? Bigfoot? Giant Wolves?

There's probably more info about too. ATS Search

Thanks jonSUN. I spent a lot of time on Skinwalker ranch in the late 1990s, but I still do not know much about skinwalkers! The people who do know would not talk to us.
The movie is an absolute travesty and just employs the name as a gimmick.

Why were you at the ranch? Sounds interesting, tell us more please!

I wouldn't call the Skinwalker Ranch an actual skinwalker situation.

In a classic sense Skinwalkers tend to only operate on Indian land or reservations and mess with Indian families.

Go over to the Unexplained Mysteries forum and do a search. There are people posting there that have actual experience with the classic Skinwalkers.

Haha I'm in the same boat as the OP. I thought I knew what a skinwalker was and then I saw that movie trailer... and I was lost.

Does anyone know about/seen this movie or know why it's called Skinwalkers? Because... it's not about skinwalkers... is it?

Confusion is setting in!

Unfortunately, I think these media sources just believe the term is cool. Knowing that most people don't know a Skinwalker from a night crawler, they embellish it and add their own spin.

Seems that the term is being misused allot lately.

The Ute reservation abutts Skinwalker ranch so the difference is geographically irrelevant. We interviewed local Ute people who instantly clammed up when the word skinwalker was mentioned. The team that spent time on Skinwalker Ranch was the best equipped and best funded in the history of anomalies research. In summer 1997 the team almost saw eye to eye with the skinwalker but somebody blinked. Still not sure who. i agree with xhorrororgasmx

All this stuff really scares me and ive seen one before and the best advice for any one is to try and stay away from any skinwalker because they can kill you no kidding!
