About this movie

A viral tale on Reddit. A haunted artifact. An ancient entity. The team behind the award-winning documentary series Hellier now brings you the story of the Catskills Crone. After a strange statue is found by two hikers, chilling phenomena begin to manifest. As the activity escalates, Greg and Dana Newkirk are forced to uncover the truth, preserve the artifact, and unbind the entity inside.

Ratings and reviews

If you enjoyed this, check out Hellier on Planet Weird's Youtube account. Also, the Haunted Objects podcast. Everything the Newkirks do is excellent and thought-provoking, and this is no different. I was left with an immense feeling of peace after my first viewing, and much the same after the second. Do yourself a favor and tune into the Newkirk's projects, and you'll gain a new appreciation for the mystical and strange that lives alongside the mundane.

The Newkirks and Karl Pfeiffer create such captivating and thought provoking documentaries. I love that they go past surface level paranormal investigations to incorporate historical elements to find answers. While other shows explain phenomenon away as "demons", this film dives deeper and takes a very different approach to explain phenomena on a human level. I now want to learn more about the lore of different cultures after viewing this film!
