“Most people think I stopped filming after the 2014 incident,” he said, glancing at the projector. “But the story never really ends. It just hides.”

Developing them in a makeshift darkroom revealed a final piece of footage: the same young woman from the shoreline, now older, holding a lantern, walking toward a hidden cavern.
