Personally I'd hear the words 'satantic cave' and run in the other direction, but one YouTuber did the opposite as he went straight into the belly of the beast.
YouTuber Aquachigger has amassed more than 1.4 million subscribers on the platform with the help of his intriguing videos, in which he searchers for 'river treasure', explores the outdoors and investigates inside caves.

In one particular video, the YouTuber - whose real name is Beau Ouimette - filmed himself approaching a low cave where he speculated people may have once carried out 'satanic rituals'.
"I've heard about a place up in this area where they have satanic rituals. This might be the very place, the very cave that it happened," he said.
As he explored the shadowy cavern using the light from a torch, Ouimette's eyes fell on a concerning sight; what appeared to be dried blood in a drip mark running down the rocks.
That alone would have been plenty for some explorers, but Ouimette kept searching the cave and found more blood on another section of rock.
The eerie discoveries didn't end there, as the YouTuber then stumbled upon the skull of an animal left abandoned on the floor of the cave.
The YouTuber speculated the skull had been the result of 'animal sacrifices' which may have been conducted on what he described as a makeshift 'altar'.

Finally, Ouimette turned the camera on a set of tracks that he described as being from 'some kind of human' - but 'not like us'.
"That's a creature that's much smaller than us, but walks on two legs," he said.
Viewers were captivated by Ouimette's discoveries, with many praising the YouTuber for venturing into the cave.

"Love your videos, wish I was as brave as you!," one person commented.
Another wrote: "I've been watching alot of your videos lately and you sir are insane!! I'd rather take a pickaxe to both eyes and both kneecaps simultaneously than shimmy into one of those tight confined spaces ! I die a little inside Everytime I watch..."
Other viewers, however, weren't entirely convinced by what Ouimette had found.
Referring to the 'human-like' tracks, one commenter wrote: "Those tracks were made by a human hand.

"Essentially the hand rolled into a fist using the side of your fist (pinky side) to make the imprint of the "foot" and you simply make the "toes" by using fingers. Oldest trick in the book."
However, the various discoveries got there, they at least provided a lot of entertainment for viewers.
