So, for the longest time, I didn’t actually consider in aliens or something like that – on the identical time, although, I’d find it irresistible in the event that they did exist.

Does that make sense?

It’d be unhappy if we had been alone on this massive area, y’know?

But ghosts, spirits, elementals, demons, and all of that… yeah, that’s one other story!

That’s my jam. I’m positive a few of it’s actual! I imply, it must be! Right??

My associate and I’ve been watching Buzzfeed Unsolved very often collectively. She’s actually within the true crime stuff however doesn’t just like the supernatural stuff. Meanwhile, I’m not all that within the true crime tales and unsolved instances however I like the supernatural speak with ghosts, folks vanishing and even demonic possessions and all of that.

We are type of opposites in that regard and I like what we have now occurring with that, actually, because it type of permits us to observe it collectively and alternate between supernatural and true crime episodes.

For anybody that doesn’t know Buzzfeed Unsolved: It is basically a documentary collection on YouTube that ran from February 2016 to November 2021. It was hosted by Ryan Bergara and his co-host Shane Madej.

While Bergara is a believer in all types of supernatural tales and ghosts and stuff, Madej acts because the sceptic that simply doesn’t give a fuck, which creates this type of comedy regardless of the creepy and morbid contents of the collection.

They go to haunted areas or speak about what precisely occurred in true crime tales earlier than speculating about what might probably be the case right here – and it’s actually, actually enjoyable!

Eventually, the collection stopped being produced, although, as a result of ongoing pandemic – and ultimately, Buzzfeed (the community that the net collection was produced for) ended up doing their very own factor as they parted with Bergara and Madej. Ever since then, they’re probably not getting the site visitors they did earlier than whereas Bergara’s and Madej’s channel, “Watchers”, is branching out into all types of content material codecs that also work rather well with their uncommon dynamic.

Anyway, rewatching these outdated Buzzfeed Unsolved movies has been a variety of enjoyable however just lately, I discovered one other channel that’s… completely different… But it’s additionally fairly attention-grabbing to me.

I do know, I do know… the thumbnails and the preliminary impressions of those folks right here doesn’t appear nice. I actually didn’t suppose I’d watch via all of it… however “Sam and Colby” is an attention-grabbing channel, in my view, as additionally they journey to those “haunted locations” the place they do investigations with completely different instruments which will or might not work. It’s actually fairly enjoyable.

And I do know that stuff like spirit packing containers and different devices like that aren’t “scientific” by any means however I believe that it ruins the enjoyable of it should you attempt to dissect it like that. Rather, I like how these movies play out with you getting back-story on these areas and what transpired there earlier than they ultimately do the investigations.

I suppose the explanation why demonic and occult stuff pursuits me is as a result of it’s one thing comparatively new to me. I type of at all times believed in that stuff in addition to omens and dangerous desires. My useless grandmother appeared in my father’s dream earlier than I used to be born, telling him what he ought to title me and that I’ll be a boy. That’s fairly supernatural, proper?

Also, dangerous stuff occurs every time bizarre stuff occurs over right here. Some time in the past, a crow or raven or no matter hit my balcony door and it simply scared the shit out of me. It flew away instantly however left a superb quantity of blood on the glass pane. So, that’s enjoyable. I hope my practice trip goes properly tomorrow.

But principally, omens and stuff. And I do know there are witches and people who believed in druidism… after which you could have demonic depictions and tales in all elements of the world from instances the place they weren’t even related and stuff…

The identical goes for outdated mythology and non secular tales. I’m positive there’s gotta be one thing to Ziz, Behemoth and Leviathan if additionally they appeared in Australian, Asian and South American folks’s desires and tales.

Anyway, I’m odd. This is an curiosity of mine and I simply sort of love that I found a brand new channel that type of feeds into that with folks truly visiting locations like that and doing “investigations”. I do know that it could possibly’t be all actual or something however you don’t go to a magic present and inform everybody that it’s faux, proper? You watch it and you know the way it really works however you don’t wreck it for anybody.

So, like, I take pleasure in turning off my internal sceptic and simply indulging in these types of bizarre and creepy occurrences.
