That abandoned house at the end of your street is pretty creepy. The story your older cousins told you about the guy with a hook for a hand calling the babysitter from inside the house (or something like that, you were too busy trying not to pee your pants to listen), was really creepy. These are creepy things that happen in the real world. So what about the internet?
C’mon, are you kidding?
Between the mid-2000s sea of cat video montages, panoply zoomers lip-sync to 5 seconds of a pop song (proving the world is doomed), and that damn Scotsman singing a sea shack. , there is some of the creepiest, most mysterious and downright gross content out there. You don’t even have to probe the depths of the deep web to find it, it’s right on the surface. The blurred line between the internet and real-life blurs at this point. Here’s a list of 10 of the creepiest things found online.
10. Out In The Cold
Russian YouTuber “Stas Reeflay” (real name Stanislav Reshetnikov) focused primarily on game-based content. Finding it difficult to compete in the genre, Stas also did some sketchy live broadcasts. Stas had done some of these daring currents, generating income by sprinkling his girlfriend with pepper or forcing a friend of his to drink oil for donations. On December 2, 2020, things went too far on one of these broadcasts. A viewer promised $ 1000 for Stas to beat up her girlfriend, Valentina, and lock her outside in the freezing cold.
This was in Moscow. In the winter.
9. r/ControllableWebcams
Most of the creepy or shocking threads on sites like Reddit will leave you wondering “is this real?” In fact, many threads are essentially creepypastas or ARGs (alternate reality games) disguised as true stories to maximize engagement.
Not so on the Reddit dashboard “r / ConrollableWebcams”, a community of folks dedicated to watching hacked cam streams, the posted links allow users to access random webcam streams. Sometimes it is a parking lot. Sometimes it is a workplace. Sometimes it is a bedroom. Yes, we have entered a real-life deep web creepypasta here folks.
The mods have gone to great lengths to make sure nothing too nasty happens on this board, but they can only have limited control (short of removing it entirely, of course).
This blatant and gross intrusion into people’s right to privacy is more common than you might think – check your Nest or Ring settings now!
8. Nizamul Khan
Another famous YouTuber has found himself on the wrong side of the law, this time in India. Nizamul Khan is a popular creator who specializes in motorcycle stunts performed during skits, often with Nizamul’s girlfriend. The couple were said to be madly in love, and that Nizamul planned to propose to her. The problem? The girl’s brother, Kamal Sharma, was vehemently opposed to his sister’s involvement with Khan. Sharma forbade his sister from seeing Khan, even going so far as to confiscate his phone.
On October 28, 2020, Khan and two accomplices followed Sharma on her way home from work. The three attackers were walking alongside Kamal while he had stopped his bicycle at an intersection. He was shot in the back and he died. Nizamul Khan and his two co-conspirators are awaiting trial.
7. 112 Dirtbag
Maury Murray disappeared after leaving his crashed car in a snowbank, apparently to avoid police after a passerby called them. If you want a deeper dive into the mystery of his disappearance, check out the video above.
In 2012, 8 years after Maura’s disappearance, a clue apparently appeared out of nowhere. A video posted on YouTube by a user named “112Dirtbag” showed a middle-aged man looking directly at the camera and laughing, before ending the video with a wink and a message that read “Happy anniversary.” Now, the username and message suggested that he knew something about Maura’s fate, if not directly responsible: the name is a reference to a quote from Maura’s father, speculating on what might have happened to him; He said that maybe some “dirty” on “Route 112” could have kidnapped her. Also, the video was posted exactly 8 years after the day Maura disappeared, which made the final message incredibly disturbing.
It turned out that this guy was just a troll. Alden Olsen, a Massachusetts resident, was cleared of any involvement. Since then, he has started a blog about Maura’s case, apparently trying to help solve it. So, we can assume that Olsen was trying to bring more attention to the case (?!) By posing as the killer …
Although he has definitely been cleared of suspicions regarding the case of Maura Murray, one cannot help but wonder why he, and many like him in other tragic cases, do these kinds of maneuvers, which inevitably aggravate and aggravate the misery of beings. loved ones of the victim.
6. Hungry?
With a prominent NSFW warning, this post on Reddit’s “r / IAmA” board should also have a YMMV warning: “May vomit.”
User “u / IncrediblyShinyShart” lost the use of one of his legs after a motorcycle accident. He spent some time in severe agony with the doctors suggesting that the leg should be amputated. When the user asked what would happen to his leg, he learned that she would be cremated and then dumped in a landfill. This wasteful action did not please IncrediblyShinyShart, so she took the amputated limb home after she cut herself below the knee. After initial plans to freeze her leg fell through due to the exorbitant costs involved, she decided to get a cast. One problem remained: what to do with the leg?
Fortunately for the new legless poster, a friend of hers was a chef … and he had a group of friends who often argued whether they would be curious to try human meat if it were ethically healthy.
And they do it like that. In some tacos, with some vegetables and Mexican-style seasonings, all topped with a dash of tomatillo sauce.
“It had a very pronounced meaty flavor. The muscle I cut was tough and chewy. It tasted good, but the experience wasn’t the best. “Later, one of the guests texted IncrediblyShinyShart:” Hey, just so you know, I pooped you. Sorry”.
5. Weird Stores
On the r / TooAfraidToAsk subreddit, people have a space to ask the community any question that might be deemed too stupid, taboo or embarrassing in real life. In July 2019, a user named “u / icemanthrowawy123” took a different tack: he wrote “Twelve identical and mysterious shops open on my street. What could be happening?” The post quickly climbed to the top of the board; no it was the usual “shit my pants in public” post, typical of the average Redditor.
He wrote that these “stores” only sold expired and dilapidated Walmart food products and accepted only cash. Referring to the signage in all these random stores:
“The names are all small variations from one another, like {townname MART} or {Market of Townname}, and they all clearly bought their signs from the same place, since the fonts, colors, size, and shapes are identical. stores don’t see any business that I’ve witnessed, but they are heavily staffed and are surviving much longer than the old stores that closed down on this street. ”
Could a Food Stamp Fraud Scam Be a Front for Money Laundering? Some users thought so, but others doubted the veracity of the story; the poster had not provided additional photographs or evidence, although it promised to do so. Silently from late 2019, it seems like this was simply a creepy post made for clicks.
But you never know, maybe ‘they’ got him.
4. What Happened To Om?
Om Sayf is a Syrian refugee living in Turkey who gained a huge following for her live broadcasts playing PUBG (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bLhUu-4LyRM). Her star was on the rise until, on January 10, 2021, she posted a video in which she claimed that she was leaving YouTube. She also left social media. Exhausted creator? Maybe she had gotten another job? Unfortunately not.
It seems that something much darker and more immediately dangerous to Om might be at work. At the end of his ‘final’ video, he made a hand gesture that appears to be the new universal signal to indicate domestic abuse (https://www.walesonline.co.uk/news/uk-news/secret-hand- sign-allows-domestic-18387107).
His fans peppered Twitter with concerned messages and called for an investigation. Since then, she has made videos showing that she is indeed alive, if she does not confirm that she is okay. Although there is still no solution to this story, we can only hope that the Turkish authorities can provide her with the help she needs, whatever it is.
3. “Ubisoft goes Steamworksm bye-bye always-on DRM”
Back to the strange and wonderful world of Reddit. A user named “YAYVIDEOGAMES” made thousands of incoherent and confusing posts, all a variation of a single sentence: “Ubisoft says goodbye to Steamworks always-on DRM”. Each post is unique, including bold, italic, and differently formatted letters, suggesting that each of your posts was typed by u / YAYVIDEOGAMES. Embedded in many of the posts were a number of bizarre, sometimes creepy image files, including a photo showing a handwritten variation of his confusing message scrawled messily on a piece of paper. Plus, all of this was completed in just a few hours.
What was this? Was it some weird form of trolling, a guy losing his mind, a fancy new robot? Nothing made sense, it was a real mystery.
Well, after some grade A online research from the Reddit community, we finally have an answer to what happened here. It appears that YAYVIDEOGAMES was bedridden and suffering from chronic pain and the aftermath of delusional paranoia. During attempts to improve his situation through pharmacological intervention (opiates and antipsychotics), the user made repetitive messages while he was in a safe center, either due to being in an altered state or to overcome his immense pain.
2. Getting Proof Of UFOs, One Leak At A Time
“At last!” Yelled all the true believers as this footage was leaked. Hold your horses though, this is all not proof of the existence of aliens, gang. It is simply proof that the US authorities know and study the UFO phenomenon (and seem to have no idea what is happening).
In itself, this is the closest thing to proof that UFO fans and fans have ever had. You must admit, skeptics, that the whole thing is quite intriguing. Keep looking at the skis … I mean the skies (required full Simpsons reference).
1. Hell IRL
One of the prevailing dictates of the Internet age has been “The Internet is not real life.” However, it is also true that real people in real lives use the Internet. The intersection of these converging “realities” can be a scary place. Nowhere is this more apparent than in the tragic case of Brandi Worley and her husband, who turned to reddit for advice under the username “u / Jasoninhell.”
The man visited the site in 2016 to seek advice about his terrible home life: a manipulative and deceitful wife who had cheated on him, even berating him for being nicer to his neighbor, with whom he had been having the affair. Jason, after following the advice of Reddit users, filed for divorce and sought custody of his two children.
Three days later, Jason’s wife waited until he fell asleep (he was sleeping in the basement, out of his reach), before stabbing their children and attempting to kill himself. She was found guilty of the murder of Tyler, 7, and Charlee, 3, and sentenced to 120 years in jail.
In 2018, Jason returned to Reddit to give an update, stating that while he was still mourning the loss of his children, he was doing better. Additionally, he advised that you always take the time to tell your loved ones what they mean to you and value your time with them, ending with:
“Always make sure they know how much you love them, I was lucky that the last thing my kids heard me say was,“ I love you, good night. I will see you in the morning “.
