    The man under the car story actually happened to me! A man eluding the police after shoplifting a bunch of expensive coats went missing in my neighborhood, and one day I was exiting my house to get the mail, I walked past my Dad's truck in the garage and heard a shuffling noise. It was barely audible, so I assumed I imagined it (I actually have a medical condition that occasionally induces audio hallucinations), and I soon forgot about the sound. Well, about a day later, my Dad found a ton of clothes hangers under his truck, and I realized that the sound I heard was the criminal hiding under my Dad's truck. Although the man wasn't described as dangerous, it was still a chilling feeling.

    Couple notes on some of the entries:
    The "Halloween Hanging" urban myth I'm most familiar with either says that, A: the body of a murder or suicide victim is mistaken for a Halloween prop, or B: a person accidentally hangs themselves while trying to pose as a hanging victim for a Halloween show.
    The "Vanishing Hotel Room" urban myth I've always heard centers around a young woman and her mother, usually visiting the Paris Exhibition of 1889. They check into a hotel, but the mother starts to feel ill. The young woman calls the hotel doctor, who examines the mother and tells the daughter that she needs to retrieve some medicine from his office on the other side of the city. She does so, and is gone for some time, but when she returns to the hotel, she finds that the room that she had checked in to has been completely altered, with different furniture and wallpaper. What's worse, there's no sign of her mother. Neither the desk clerk or the doctor remember the woman's mother being present, insisting that she checked in alone. Indeed, even the registration book has been changed so that only the name of the young woman is present. The young woman never sees her mother again.
    The "Kentucky Fried Chicken is Not Actually Chicken" myth usually centers around the name change of the franchise from "Kentucky Fried Chicken" to simply "KFC." The myth claims that this is because the restaurant chain started using genetically-altered birds without feathers, beaks, or feet, and legally could not continue to claim that they served "chicken."

    I'd like to point out that the Candyman legend is entirely fictional, as in, the urban legend only ever existed in fiction. It was created by Clive Barker for his story "The Forbidden," which was then adapted into the movies with Tony Todd. The legend didn't exist until Clive Barker came up with it.

      I suspect this is extremely common for up and coming UA-camrs, for example I have been subbed to Wendigoon since he had 10k subs or less and a few others who have since “blown up”. And I think once they become monetized and turn a profit they start polishing their content more and more, and start finding their groove/template that works for them. And once they are monetized enough to pay for an editor their content gets even more polished, sometimes too much and it becomes detrimental to their channel.
      I really like Snook’s content and when he blows up we can look back and say “I remember when he still mispronounced words, occasionally stuttered, and his tempo was so fast he tripped over words he doesn’t normally have an issue with.”

    For those interested in the image on the thumbnail it is of a Thelemic Magician demonstrating The Neophyte Sign of Silence/ of Harpocrates. It is possibly Crowley himself, perhaps one of his A.'.A.'. (Astrum Argentum) students. The image can trace its origins in pop culture after it appeared as the front cover of the magazine Détective in 1929. The robe was sold at Sotheby's on December 16th, 1996, lot 342. It was part of a large archive of material from the Estate of Isador Caplan Esq., one of Crowley's solicitors in the 1930s 'Laughing Torso' lawsuit. Crowley couldn't settle his legal bill and his lawyers took books and personal effects in lieu of payment.
    This sign is part of Thelemic Magick which is Aleister Crowley's occult system. I was involved in Thelema for 15 years, in the OTO for 10 years. I left it behind, taking what I liked with me and ditching the rest. AMA.

    About the dog boy. There actually was an instance of a boy raised by wolfes in the 19th or 20th century. As far as I remember, he spend his first year under human care and 6 more years in the wilderness being raised by wolfes. There are written records of him since a psychologist took to teaching him after a mental ward got a hold of him. He was able to learn words and behavior patterns. He also build a vary strong emotional conmection to his nurse/nanny. Importantly though, he never mamged to aquire proper syntax. He couldnt build complex sentences. This was one of the earliest indicators that humans need to be around humans to develop certain mental functions like speech and that some of these functions need to be trained in certain time frames during early development or else it's too late

I am Lakota-Sioux from Standing Rock, we know "Walking Sam" as "The Tall Man" simply a tall figure with no feet, mostly an urban legend to keep children from doing anything bad, much like Krampus and La Llorna are used today. The Tall Man is usually seen on the tops of the hills along the Rez, he simply stands and observes the ceremonies.

    I mention this on a lot of channels:
    I know this takes a lot of work- I know you write a script, edit, keyframe, all on a time crunch. And for 90% of the video, it’s absolutely fantastic, engaging and interesting.
    But it never ceases to baffle me how people who take such pride in their content fail to do the absolute bare minimum for making sure you’re pronouncing something correctly. I’m not even talking about super obscure Gaelic place names or whatever. I mean words like “Sioux”, “harbinger”, using the wrong prefix, etc.
    It may seem nit-picky, and it may be. But I can’t overstate how much credibility a content creator loses over seemingly basic errors that could have been avoided with a 2 second google search.
    Some exceedingly unfamiliar or verbose words can be difficult, and can be noted in the script like “bruh I’m probably fucking this up”- but Sioux? You couldn’t be fucked to just google it? Or type into UA-cam and click on a news report where they say it or something?
    When the rest of the video is presented in a cogent, and structured way- those “little-big” mistakes predicated on laziness absolutely ruin it for a lot of people.
    Normally I never say anything, but when I do, it’s because I LOVE the content and the creator. It’s nothing personal.

    child in a chimney has quite a few real world versions, but one of the most disturbing ones was of a young boy who posted videos to youtube. The boy was neglected and one day, he wanted to stay home from school because he felt sick, his mom told him to "get your ass to school" (her words not mine) and instead of going to school he decided he'd go into the neighbors home since they were away for either vacation, or for the winter (I can't fully remember). He couldn't get in thru any normal means, so he decided to try and climb in thru the chimney. he got stuck, tried to disrobe in the hopes that less clothes would make him more able to move, and eventually perished... I can't remember if he was found during the missing persons search, or when the neighbors returned to their home, but I know he was eventually found. unsure if it's disrespectful to post the boys name but it's a publicized case that even has some youtube coverage to make understanding it much easier (since you wouldn't have to watch various news station archives and read thru news and police reports).

      Jordan Morlan, 16, died after a prank involving his love of Halloween went horribly wrong.
      Morlan had been hanging Halloween decorations all day and had just returned home from helping his mom do laundry when the tragedy occurred.
      Jordan's mom, Ginger Rodriguez, said he was trying to prank his little sister and her by pretending to be hanging from a noose decoration he put up on a tree in their front yard. The coroner said when he placed the noose around his neck, he became disoriented cutting his brain off from oxygen within 20 to 30 seconds. His younger sister discovered him unconscious and Rodriguez rushed to help cut him down, but said she was unable to remove her son.
      Morlan was taken to the hospital where he was placed on a ventilator because he was in a coma. Rodriguez says her son's organs started to fail. Jordan died 12 hours after this accident.
      Rodriguez said her son loved to play pranks and loved Halloween.

    I liked the video but I won’t lie it feels a little half assed. When you talked about Bloody Mary you didn’t even talk about the origin of her name queen mary. You didn’t talk about how queen mary got her name from her enemy. Basically just old school name calling.
    With the organ trafficking you said it’s extremely uncommon. I googled it and you can find countless survivors with scars on their abdomen from organ harvesting. I saw one photo that had three men who looked to all be from the same village and all three had the same scar on their abdomen. Maybe it’s not common in the entire world but in some areas it happens more often then you’d like to think

    I can give another form of Phantom Social Worker from the US and this is rooted in federal law. A retired State Trooper once explained to me that it's federal law that you are not required to stop for undercover officers regardless of the situation, and if you do, always go to a well-populated and lit area. She explained that around the time undercovers became popular, human traffickere would get blue lights despite the illegality and pose as undercover officers to pull over women or parents with children to kidnap either the woman, or mother and child, and drive off. This caused the federal government to create the law that undercovers can't pull you over and are instructed to radio a marked car if there's a traffic violation.

      We had one in my middle school called “Ratboy”. There was this hallway in the school basement called “Ratboy Hallway”. The legend goes, this kid was having gym class in the one room with all the mats on the floor as we all did when some bullies trapped him in that hallway and locked him away. Since it was an unused hallway for as long as anyone could remember, nobody could find him. He ended up staying alive by eating rats and any students who dared to enter that hallway. It was essentially a closed off corridor in the school basement unused for many moons until it sprouted a little urban legend. I went in there back in seventh grade being the explorer I am (and still am). I never found shit obviously. It was a very decrepit and unfinished area clearly closed off for a reason. Made for a fun place to film for our video and animation class, though.

Dogs have a very high level of hearing and smell as well as better low light vision and will pretty much always be aware of someone before they are of it. And even if your dog is relatively quiet it won’t be towards an unknown intruder.
    There’s a reason burglar’s often avoid houses with dogs even small ones.

    I appreciate the effor you put into narrarating atleast you didn’t go the lazy route and use text to speech like most channels. Keep it up!

      It's not lazy, they still have to do research. Sometimes people just can't narrate.
