Blackpeople.exe

Once there was a guy browsing the deep, dark web. He found a file called blackpeople.exe and downloaded it, assuming it to be Roblox. He clicked on it then he shrieked at the top of his lungs as a whole ghetto of black people walked into his room and began tearing him apart and eating his flesh.
Then end.

My wife is convinced our house is haunted. She thinks there is a ghost she has named "George" that will show up from time to time. She claims when I was out of town for a few weeks that's when "it" really made it's presence known. She described a shadowy figure about 6' tall walking across the room one night. I have never seen any sign of it but, our dog does act very weird sometimes. Around 2-3 am he'll wake from a deep sleep and start growling/barking at the darkness. Sometimes it's a random spot in the corner sometimes it's the hallway leading into the master bedroom where the 3 of us sleep. He's a dog and he barks, typically he only barks at what he can see. He wakes up out of nowhere very agitated and fixated on something. I've always kept a pistol and flashlight within arms reach of the bed and every time I grab the flashlight I expect to see something and I'm always disappointed. The wife describes him as a neutral ghost, doesn't appear to have any purpose or wish any ill will towards anyone. I've never seen anything or any sign there was more to it than her imagination. I do trust the dog, though. He just acts so sure there is something present in the room. A good portion of the time he's barking at where the face of the average height man would be standing in the hallway. What I'm trying to say is if I were standing in the hallway just outside the bedroom and looking at him making eye contact he'd be staring exactly where he does when he wakes up agitated in the middle of the night. Our house of fort fucking knox, I engineering it myself. NVR cameras with motion tracking, all the doors are double reinforced, no vermin in the home. Every now and then a squirrel will run over the roof the dog will bark after I clearly hear it. This is different though.

First half of this post I was expecting a George Floyd or cuck joke

Do you know the history of your house?

Not a ghost just sleep paralysis and recurring nightmare, but when I was a wee lad I used to sleep like a dog, and have from it a reacuring vivid hallucination of a very black diseased looking teddy bear that I dubbed "black".

The scary thing that I still hate to this date, is that I had to stare it down for what felt like hours, if I made a small noice, it would start screaming and run at me, then I'd start screaming, only to get jumped and noddle arm it while a black mass of disease just fucked me up.

Also for some reason It always came out of an egg, the most vivid experience I ever had was being unable to move, and seeing the football-sized egg at the foot of the bed just cracking and opening.

How the scream sounded like?

How the scream sounded like?

Honestly couldn't say, it was so many years ago, the most memorables things were the silent stare downs that I knew I had to maintaining, and also watching it start the sprint, getting closer and closer as it ran at me in the most unnatural way, like it's back was broken, torso just flailing around all the while screaming.

No idea how my mind created this thing, not only did I not have stuffed toys, but never had actually watched horror before.

Hey, Vsauce. Michael here.

Skeletons are scary and spooky, but you know what else is? Black people.

According to the U.S Justice Department, in 2006, 32,443 women of Caucasian origin were raped by men of African origin.

That same year, the number of African American women raped by Caucasian men... was... zero.

In fact, 90% of all interracial crimes in the U.S. are committed by blacks... against whites...

So what if all blacks were to... suddenly... disappear from the U.S.?

Murder would go down 49.7 percent, welfare recipients would go down 40 percent, SAT scores would go up about 100 points, the average IQ would go up 7 points, and AIDS victims would go down a staggering... 67... percent.

Significant changes for race that only makes up 13% of the population.

This is only adjacently related but I came across an article referencing ultra low sound frequencies and looked up the Wikipedia page on 'Infrasound'. Tldr is basically that vibrations from sound waves affect the human body (bloodflow, heart problems and even death, nausea etc) and certain inaudible frequencies might be responsible for ghostly apparations and the 'someone watching me' feelings. Apparently your eyeballs will resonate at 18hz causing things to 'appear out of the corner of your eye'

Here is the copy paste from the ghost sighting caused by infrasound section:

Spoiler: Ghosts

Suggested relationship to ghost sightingsedit
Psychologist Richard Wiseman of the University of Hertfordshire suggests that the odd sensations that people attribute to ghosts may be caused by infrasonic vibrations. Vic Tandy, experimental officer and part-time lecturer in the school of international studies and law at Coventry University, along with Dr. Tony Lawrence of the University's psychology department, wrote in 1998 a paper called "Ghosts in the Machine" for the Journal of the Society for Psychical Research. Their research suggested that an infrasonic signal of 19 Hz might be responsible for some ghost sightings. Tandy was working late one night alone in a supposedly haunted laboratory at Warwick, when he felt very anxious and could detect a grey blob out of the corner of his eye. When Tandy turned to face the grey blob, there was nothing.

The following day, Tandy was working on his fencing foil, with the handle held in a vice. Although there was nothing touching it, the blade started to vibrate wildly. Further investigation led Tandy to discover that the extractor fan in the lab was emitting a frequency of 18.98 Hz, very close to the resonant frequency of the eye given as 18 Hz by NASA.[62] This, Tandy conjectured, was why he had seen a ghostly figure—it was, he believed, an optical illusion caused by his eyeballs resonating. The room was exactly half a wavelength in length, and the desk was in the centre, thus causing a standing wave which caused the vibration of the foil.[63]

Tandy investigated this phenomenon further and wrote a paper entitled The Ghost in the Machine.[64] He carried out a number of investigations at various sites believed to be haunted, including the basement of the Tourist Information Bureau next to Coventry Cathedral[65][66] and Edinburgh Castle.[67][68]

I found this very neat

The really funny part is about 1-2 hours after posting this the dog had one of his growling/barking at the darkness "situations" and 45 mins later a box of cereal somehow fell off the top of the fridge all by itself lat last night. He does this maybe every 2-3 months and the cereal fox falling off the fridge in the middle of the night has never happened before.

Do the heartless count as paranormal?

I can't lie likenindidnt read it in his voice from the start.


My house has a haunting that happens when my grandnothers ghost gets annoyed at loud music. Also her ashes vibrate off the desk she's on so that means her spirit face plants.

Not really paranormal (I think), more of a cryptid story. It'll need to be told in three pieces - the background of the place, what I've heard from my family and what I saw when I was a kid.

Background:

Spoiler

I grew up in the nineties in the southern country side of Brazil - won't be specific as to not powerlevel too much, but it's a densely forested area with some old, old growth. The region is in a valley, and the mountains around are littered with caves that were inhabited by the natives, Tupi-Guaranis mostly.
My family lives in that region since 1920, so they know the region very well. My grandpa bought the land this took place in the sixties, and my mother grew up there.

What I heard:

Spoiler

As far as I can remember, everyone in the region have some sort of story involving a huge animal in the woods. It's consistently described as having thick darkened brown fur and to be the size of a grown adult - so basically a huge ass grizzly bear in a place that had no grizzlies since the dawn of time, and no primate even close to its size. There are no reports, however, of it being aggressive.
My oldest uncle tells a story, and he's a no-bullshit kind of fella, that once he woke up to go to school (since it was a backwater place, people had to walk about five miles to school) and he saw this huge thing in the porch of the old house, but it ran towards the wood when he screamed. He swears the fucking thing tore throw through small trees like they weren't even there, making a really low growl noise.
The old farmhand that took care of the property when my grandpa died told whoever asked until the day he died (heart-attack in a whorehouse, the madlad) that there were something indawoods.

What little Baron saw:

Spoiler

When I was around 8 my parents had a rough divorce, so me and my mother moved out of the house and went to live in the farmhouse for a couple months until she could get her shit together.
The youngest of my uncles (not the same one who tells the story) is skeptic as fuck, lives nearby and never saw a damn thing - but he hated the opossums that would get in the chicken coop to steal eggs. So one night, my mom called my uncle (on a landline, of course) because the chickens were raising hell, screaming like banshees - five minutes later my uncle was at the door of the farmhouse with his shotgun in hand and asked me to go with him to hold a flashlight while he shoots the opossums (those were the days).
We moved around the property until we get to the barns/shed. There were two big sheds joined by a elevated passageway, with a sort of "tunnel" crossing between them, There was a single incandescent light-bulb in there and the rest of the world was pure darkness - public lights weren't really a thing in the country side yet. For some reason, my uncle took the flashlight from me and told me to wait inside the bottom floor of the shed. I'm not going to pretend I wasn't scared shitless of being alone inside that shed in darkness, but a kid's a kid and I agreed. From my point of view my uncle went to the right (me looking towards the tunnel). Not even two minutes later, I heard a low, scratchy noise, not unlike a dog growling. The doors of the shed were made of planks of wood, so there was some space between them, where of course this dumbfuck here decided to take a peak.
Now, I'm a pretty cynic guy with everything, but for the life of my I can't explain what I saw. Coming from the left of the tunnel (couldn't then be my uncle, unless he circled over a lake in the property which would take way more than two minutes), something passed right in front of the door, not slowly but not rushing - something big, enough to cover all light I had from the outside. It didn't make a lot of noise, which to this day strikes me as fucking odd. It had something of a hunched posture and a big upper body. And it went the direction my uncle had gone.

I guess it could've been the mind of a scary kid seeing shit in the night, but a couple of minutes later my uncle returned (from the same direction he came) telling me he couldn't find any opossums and he was going home. I don't think I ever talked about what I saw with him, but I've told my mom and it was then she told me to ask my other uncle about what he saw in the porch decades earlier.

It's a long story and it's probably poorly written, but yea, tl;dr I might have saw some old cryptid in the woods in southern Brazil.

 

[Bunkerhousing]

This is some guy having a youtubechannel where he camp and do treks.

He went to a field of battle, where people have reported weird things. Ultimately he decied to not stay the night.

He seems to have caught a silhouette on camera. His camera then dies, which is consistent with paranormal phenomena that interfere with electrical devices.

IT is here:

The youtube clip consists of 5 stories, the other are kinda meh, the link goes directly to the second clip who is the campers story.
