When I see an online post that's in journal entries and one of them starts with "NOPE. NOPE NOPE" I know its a person flexing their creative writing skills lol
That's close to my theory. Spoof the MAC of the camera and the image you send will look like it's coming from that cam. If you can get on their wifi, you can mess with their cameras.
I have problems with these "stories" where a person continues to live and SLEEP in the house. You can't expect people to accept the idea you genuinely believe someone is gaining access to your home AND you continue to live there. It's ridiculous.
honestly I think more characters should be portrayed as having a hard background because that will absolutely give you the horror movie idiot personality, because you're used to brushing things off and having to survive when afraid. I have a lot of trauma and I would absolutely die in a horror movie
I think I listened to a creepypasta once with ukulele music in the background, and then suddenly after talking about some eerie shit it goes real loud DOOT DOO! A ukulele jumpscare. -_-
Felt like people where forgetting the main thing, that some dude or woman was scratching the cat door. Seems like it was a hoax that took off and the dude didnt plan the whole hoax so he made shit up as it went then got bored with it or didnt know how to end it so he just ended it abruptly
He actually planned out at least the later parts of it, he set up the spiderweb in a clear storytelling fashion so that when it was used to prove the camera wasn't moved it was something the reader already knew. It's the classic Chekov's Gun situation.

1. This is fake, I used to sell, install and maintain security cameras, including wireless Zmodo branded ones, you definetly have the option to disable motion detection and record continuously. With a 1TB hard disk, a 2MP camera (most commonly used) will record 4 months of continuous video at 1080p. An 8MP 4k security camera (extremely rare) will record for a month. In fact back in 2016 most wireless Zmodo cameras were 720p. 2. On top of that if the cameras were setup to only record on motion detection they would record a VIDEO! Not still photos. In fact they would record footage from 5 minutes before it detected any motion (the DVR records continuously even on Motion detection and deletes the videos after a certain period). 3. It doesnt matter what app you use to view the recording or watch the stream, you would never lose the videos if you changed apps, because the VIDEO IS STORED IN THE DVR!! The app only connects via p2p to stream the video from the dvr into your phone. The app does not store the video on your phone, unless you download a certain clip.
I can imagine this person isn't really all that tech-savvy, as they're talking about how the app 'changed' and they're only sharing stills, they don't seem like someone who knows that you should a.) change the default password for wifi cameras and b.) how to go through settings and set up a camera to record. My dad's had security cameras for our property for years, he stores a lot of construction equipment and they help monitor the comings and goings of the people he employs, works with, etc. I think OP didn't know how to set shit up properly and wasn't about to admit that he screwed up some setting(hell he could have even set up his own phone to take stills every time the phone failed to unlock). He never shows us a screenshot of the app--and the cameras are totally hackable if you've set up Password123 as the password then figured it's totes secure--like I bet you can even save stills from your phone to the app/device. Why not share video? Why not double check all their wifi and camera settings after the first instance of obviously-inserted photo? So I would say--Fake in that OP clearly isn't able to manage settings correctly, and is probably misinterpreting stuff as paranormal when really OP needs to brush up on their wifi security. It's like if I was one of those parents who kept the wifi password default on a camera or something and then when it was logged into by a random stranger I went "oh my god the camera's haunted!"
@@jakefreeman8485 Defending your home is legal in the constitution, the supreme laws of the land. If they die while trespassing on my property because of a claymore then it's not illegal. Off of my property is another story.
@@minoxiothethird did you even Google the laws? Placing a mine,claymore or even a pitfall trap without a sign warning of explosives or traps on the area will get you arrested
I had instant doubts when none of the cameras ever recorded anything but the creepy pictures shown in the video. Also "nah I'm not gonna unplug my fan or light to plug this camera in, it's not like someone is apparently sneaking around my house even while I'm home!"
I was drawing while listening to this video and looked up right when the ghost hit the door. Made me jump out of my skin since it was a sudden sound effect that wasn't Nexpo's voice LOL
I'm an Electrical Engineer that has installed dozens of security systems & hundreds of sensors & cams. Although I've never installed Zmodos in particular, here's what I know: - There is no way in Hell for anyone to approach, unmount & move the cam around without getting caught by it. Not even a ghost, since the cam's motion itself would trigger an alarm. But! Like I said I don't know those cams, but if they don't send alarms upon video loss/disconnections, then I guess it's doable if they're switched off before someone enters their visual range. - There is no way he's picking up some neighbor's cam, as someone commented. Seeing neighbor's cam (which is connected to a different router) is as possible as it is to see a random cam from the other side of the planet: not possible at all. (Also, why would his neighbor have CCTV cams on his bed? 😛) So, what are the possibilities? - He's lying. - He's using Zmodo's cloud storage instead of a DVR, from which he received some old snapshots from, I don't know, when he was testing/setting the cam on his bed? Although it sounds weird & it's probably a rare glitch, something similar has happened to me personally (albeit only once). I was installing an IP/cloud cam & when I got it online, I received snapshots of a workbench, the factory & the guy that presumably was testing it. - The app itself &/or the previously stored snapshots are messed up & out of order (perhaps due to wrong timestamps or whatever), so he's seeing older snapshots as new. - The ghost of a hacker or a cat burglar (no pun intended) is haunting him. 😱 Although I'm a cynical, skeptical Engineer, I can't dismiss that last possibility. You see, my own cams have caught some weird crap over the years, at my in-the-middle-of-nowhere home. Who knows...
Do you think it’s possible to send false footage to the app or camera? Basically hack the camera or app to edit videos or images, or even send new footage entirely?
This justifies my paranoia and distrust of anything "stored on the cloud". Hell, all "cloud storage" even means is "our corporation will be able to access anything on your computer*" *short of any sort of extensive software design, I know there's plenty of people who will go the extra mile with shit like VPN's and similar things that encrypt the data better, but for the average person, all cloud storage means is "sign here and trust us to have access to all your data, and we pinky promise never to delete your data if it takes up too much space or becomes an inconvenience(and you can TOOOOOTALLY trust us, right? It's not like silicon Valley isn't constantly "leaking" or losing data to hackers and rival entities") Fuck cloud storage. If I get security cameras on my house the last thing I want is amy sort of internet connection running them together.
This is probably a hoax, because if you check out FlexGunship's account he posts fake scary stories on subs like r/nosleep and r/shortscarystories, so this was probably one of the scary stories that he wrote that he decided to continue due to popularity
I agree. Also the fact that his thread was moved or continued in the paranormal subreddit. Letsnotmeet is for true stories and events, not the "fake but real" style that nosleep is supposed to be.
@Major Cbass Also, they could have easily used extension cords to take the pictures that were either inside or in the forest. Or maybe they just took normal pictures and photoshopped it so that the quality looked like something a camera would take
@@blue---monday Mellyanda Ratu I think he might've wanted to make up a convincing story to post on r/letsnotmeet for Reddit karma because his older stories didn't gain a lot of karma. Stories like his are very common on subs like r/nosleep, but they're uncommon on r/letsnotmeet due to the fact that the stories there are usually real, and when they're made up they're usually not as extreme as FlexGunship's story, cause they're trying to be convincingly real. FlexGunship probably just wanted karma and attention, like most redditors do, but decided that making very realistic fake stories on subreddits for that kind of thing was not getting him enough karma, and that posting one of his very convincing fake stories to letsnotmeet would probably gain more traction and give him lots of attention and Reddit karma, which it did.
I dont care if it's a hoax, I love stories like this, especially when they're framed so solidly in reality. It's entertaining. The fact that you're not able to trust something so important as a camera is terrifying. It serves for a fantastic narrative and horror story.
I don't. They are boring and totally take away any intrigue from the mystery - I want real shit that will scare me, not a hoax or ARG. It's not entertaining at all. I want reality, not fiction.
@@Wackaz then why are you watching videos you're sure are a hoax? I didn't ask whether you liked it or not. I was just making a comment that I personally don't mind.
Obvious fabrication, and not even a good one... "Someone got into my house and moved all of my cameras, let me just STAY HERE and also WALK AROUND NAKED" come on, man
I have evidence someone was in my room not half an hour ago! I should get out of here! Oh, but, let's update reddit on the situation first, they really need to know!
It's kind of the point The paranormal board writers and those who visit it go to get scared and you don't really expect something true It's just good writing most the time
Something like that was one of my first thoughts, but if that was the case there's no way the camera would be getting shots of the bed without someone moving it, whether or not it's hacked.
0rbital That's what I was thinking. Hack the existing cameras to see when OP is home, sneak in and plant new cameras, make OP think they're being haunted.
You know what really kills this story for me? The fact that it started with scratching and actually catching someone doing it, but immidiately after we are told to forget all about it and hear about some weird unexplainable phenomenon going on.
"Oh it's probably just some kid messing with me, good thing I don't care enough to catch them. Oh, cops said theres someone living in my walls, guess I'll just uninstall the cameras so if i get attacked theres no evidence"
If the post is true, they could have had the camera somewhere else (say the front of the house) just not included it's footage as there wasn't anything of note on it
Smugumin the second camera I believe was just unplugged and in the house but that still means that he could’ve just plugged it into somewhere and taken the pictures (also the fact that this guy was behaving just like a character in a movie or something says a lot lmao)
There is also the possibility that the camera was never moved at all. It's possible that someone was able to override the signal by using another camera. If the intent was to mess with this person, that would be far easier than all the nuanced installation and moving around of the original camera.
they're wifi cameras... that shit can easily be faked through the use of a phone connecting to their wifi, then sending a signal to the camera system, and voila, magically the cameras are moving without actually moving.
Yeah, cause the picture of the bed supposedly coming from the “camera” seemed higher quality than the shit quality from outside, so the person must’ve connected to it, make the cameras believe that the phone camera is the real camera, turn on the flashlight in the dark, and make the picture black and white.
The thing that killed this for me was the fact that OP was so dismissive of his back door being opened up in the middle of the night. Imagine exiting the shower to find your personal space being wide open to the pitch black night, especially considering the events previous, I would be scared shitless
Yeah tf?? Most people at that point of pictures being taken of their bed and shit would go for the nearest weapon and call the police...not close it and go to bed 🤦💀 that's a quick way to end up as a statistic
The biggest red flag for me is his inconsistencies with how he handles the situation, both by himself and with police. He calls the cops right off the rip with no issue - showing that he's willing to do so when feeling threatened - but then when hes out with friends and getting a bunch of alerts on his phone, he decides 'Hmm I'm gonna investigate myself', when a normal person would call the cops if it was legit. Not to mention he was allegedly so scared that he wouldn't stay there, why the sudden confidence to investigate? None of it adds up lol.
The scratching at the cats door is strange but their are starving people who will eat the carts food right of of the dish, I have seen it happen where a man I saw in Hollywod, CA. in the 1980's go behind a mans house who always left his dogs food dish out on his back porch next to the driveway. The unidentified man was seen digging his hands into the dish and eating the food that was left in the dish and...then...drinks the water from the other dish that was also left for the guys dog. I stopped and watched him do this because I saw the guy go behind this house and knew he didn't live there. I was on the way to the store so I though I would get him some real food along with my own and when I returned to the area he was still there but he seemed to scary to give food to so I kept walking not knowing if he was all together there you know. I stopped though to see if he would respond to me and as he looked at me I knew, well, not a good idea at this time. True story.
"someone could be living in their attics or walls, this has happened to people in the past" excuse me what??? you cant just brush that shit off, please make a vid about those stories

I once had my security cameras hacked into by my neighbor and they connected their camera to it and recorded my window to creep me out, but once I got really scared she fessed up
I knew it was horseshit as soon as they said the camera didn't record anything. You're going to buy a nannycam and NOT have it set up to record? Sure. Another Reddit roleplayer. Theres also the "uhh..", "hmm", "edittacular", all the ellipses. They didn't even try. Not to mention how they tried to explain away the sleepwalking thing with how difficult it would be, unplugging it, dismounting it, etc.. But someone else is doing that? Someone else is unplugging it, dismounting it, running an extension cord into his living room, triggered some motion senses, unplugged it, put away the extension cord, remounted it, and plugged it back in. Dude sealed his own fucking coffin with his own excuse. And then he just.. sells the cameras? All this shit is going down and theyre terrified, as it seems, so they just sell the cameras and forget about it..? Lmao, fuck this is rich.
Also, the redditor that posted it also posts fictional stories to r/nosleep and other scary story subs. Yeah, clearly fake. I've noticed that this channel isn't very thorough with research and mostly just regurgitates reddit stories.
@@damienjohn Extremely easy to produce basically. Garbage horror channels salivate over reddit posts because of how easy it is to throw it into windows movie maker and vomit out a video their gullible subscribers will eat up. Hide in the comments D:
The motion cameras would have been going off the entire time they were moving about. Not just snapping a rando with exactly no context. Every time. And its clear he unplugged something so he could take angle shots of his room, he then chose the best one. But pointed out the discrepancies after he thought someone might notice.
A better moral of the story is that you shouldn’t contact authorities. They’ll say your house is haunted, and you wasted your time asking them for help.
I know I’m a bit late, but working in network security, I can tell you that there are devices out there that will clone your WiFi enabled Camera. So this is entirely possible. A device clones the camera and temporarily disabled it and the new camera becomes the current feed. Then, upon disabling it, it goes back to the original one. It’s not that hard to do. Just a thought
Riis, read about MAC spoofing. Also, when you set up the cam, you probably only assign it a custom DHCP lease based on the MAC, not add it to a network whitelist, so if one would be to set a static IP on a device and disconnect the other one (either physically or by dropping it off the network with a ton of malfunctioned ARP packets (netcut-style)), it would be totally possible. I'm wondering how did they get cameras compatible with that system to work exactly like the other ones did. Probably a fake because of this.
Kind of long? Are you serious right now? His name was two words...its not like it was a sentence of 4 syllable words. Our future is doomed with youth like this.
@@Chapterhouse86 wtf are you talking about ? You mean that a channel name should be a 4 syllable name ? Wtf it doesn't have to be long. I like shorter names in channels.
those consumer security cameras are notorious for having unsecured network connections - I think it might have even been you that made a video about those awful websites where people just tap into random private cameras around the world. It’s more than likely that the cameras just picked up a neighbor’s feed. Especially since that last bedroom shot had an arm in it while they were supposedly out of town. Still creepy but not impossible. That first time was certainly a real break-in attempt though. Probably some dumbass thinking he was so smart for trying to get in through the cat door.
I was staunchly not looking at the video because I’m a wuss so I’m glad you pointed that out, that is the single funniest video clip I’ve ever seen in my L I F E
You did a lovely job on this video, but this story sounds very fake to me; again, not necessarily due to its contents but by the way it is told. It just strikes me as the way people talk when they're making something up, and not the way they talk when they're describing something that happened to them. Admittedly, there were a few parts toward the beginning that struck me as the way people talk when they're describing stuff that happened to them, but the farther along it went, the more it sounded like the way people talk when they're making up a story.
Rainy Jane totally agree. Too much detail and explaining why they were doing things. “I closed the curtains because I like to walk around naked..” that kind of stuff. I’d imagine someone just saying “my curtains were open when they were closed before”
_The cats are here to protect me._ Ah yes, there's nothing like waking up in the dead of night hearing something walking on the roof and then shrug it off cause my cat's still sleeping soundly. _Probably nothing._
Is the camera itself mounted to the wall or is the based screwed in and the camera detaches from the base? I got into the logistics of the camera movement, but then he claims to want to walk around naked when he's supposed to be freaked out. Nope, the power of PJ's to protect us from machete welding madmen is well documented. 😜
You missed a possibility, the dude's account has been comprised, possibly through a leak of major company users, People will often use the same email and pasword for multiple services. Doors can be breached often times without much effort at all with simple tools, not even picking locks, slipping latches is really easy if the door isn't fit correctly. The intruder likely has access to the account and purchases an identical camera. This way, he could turn off the outside camera, walk right in through the improperly fitted door latch, do what ever the hell he wants, including unplugging something, plugging in the camera, then putting the plugs back how they were, or just using a power pack to power the camera. Mr. Guy doesn't know about the third camera because the intruder only joins it long enough to take the pictures, and when there is a manual picture taken and the patio camera is somewhere else, he has just disjointed patio camera and renamed the third camera to patio. I am not a hacker, but I could do what was done to this guy for 20 bucks for some credentials on the dark web, maybe 30 bucks for a camera, and 2 bucks for a bent piece of metal. Also the intruder knows when the guy is gone because he also has access to the app and the cameras can show when the guy leaves the house. This is why proper security is important.
@@xeinbee161 I guess because it doesn't rely on ghosts playing with cameras. It makes the most sense and nothing in my explanation is impossible. If I wanted, I could make a how to guide on doing this. ... But I really don't want to.
Yes I agree, This is what I was thinking the whole time. The cameras sharing information via wifi signal opened them up to anyone with enough know-how. If this is even real, which it very well may not be.
It probably is a hoax, however one theory is that someone was able to gain access to his computer through malware, and was able to send alerts to his phone from his Webcam as if it was from his security system
may yeah I don't get how anybody is believing this lol, the cat is literally chilling there at the foot of the bed while some "intruder" is just walking around and taking some pics.
To be honest just up and leaving the home or apartment is usually not the best idea for most of these things. People don't have that much money or time to just change places all the time or just buy new houses. Staying over someone's place will not last forever. So its either live with the ghost or be homeless and I prefer living with ghosts that just love to play with cameras. Still I don't think this story is true anyways lmao.
"Strange things are happening to me! Im just gonna stop investigating and live in ignorant bliss" What the heck is that dude thinking. Get /x/ to investigate it. That's what i would do lol
Maybe the app is fxcked up and it's taking pictures from his phone's front camera without him noticing and without his consent? I mean, idk if I understood the story but to me it makes sense more than ghosts or even sleepwalking.
Hey Nexpo, I know this video is old but here is what FlexGunship had to say about your video. "Meh. I don't live there anymore; bought a house across town. Nothing happened after the cameras came down. I got called a liar and got shit on enough to basically just ignore questions. Video seems fast paced compared to real life... Took months for all of that to happen. Weird to see it distilled down to a few minutes."
The reason these stories immediately come across as bullshit is that the people claiming them to be real always act like characters in a horror movie. The only thing missing in the story was him calling out, "Helloooo" when he got home after the "motion sensor" alert. No one in their right mind would go home. You would immediately call the police and tell them there's a possible break in happening at that moment. This is also why all haunting stories are bullshit. No one would stay in a house/apartment/cardboard box where an entity you have no control over is intruding. You would immediately leave.
It was a dead giveaway when they said they had no outlets and they couldn’t go without their fan or lamp... if you’re buying all these security cameras you might as well buy a $10 power strip
Looks like a selfie, you can see the arm and the chest while tucked under the cover, with a weird figure or shade of something light/white standing at the end tip of the bed...
wow so fake. probably bought a kit with 2 cameras, installed one, and used the other for the spooky pics. especially with them then using that camera to point at the first camera. And It was convenient that getting rid of the cameras "solved" the issue even though it seemed the issue was just that the cameras were moving, sounds like they were done with the story and getting rid of the cameras essentially ends the story as it was 100% of the content.. Also if it's not triggering right why not just have it go full-dvr mode for a day or two. because it's fake, that's why not.
That is definitely a possible explanation, but what the redditor himself was arguing was that the intruders were likely there just to mess with his cameras, thus removing the cameras caused the intruders to not mess with him anymore.
I love how the narrator sometimes pauses for dramatic effect, but what I love even more is that the effect has absolutely no impact on me and many others either lmao.
Okay not staying this is real but I can explain the different year on the camera. They were new security cameras and he probably just set up the time and just hadn't set up the year yet. My dad got a dashcam and it was the same way and still is the same way. (It says 2012 if anybody is wondering lol) and also sometimes some dash cams on cop cars are the same way where the timestamp is correct but the year is not they usually try to correct this though.
doesn't explain why the time is not matching on either camera, he finished a game of starcraft, which can range from 10 minutes to an hour, but usually lie within the 20-30 mark, I find it hard to believe that he had not checked the alerts earlier, seeing as the game is not full focus the entire time, and with our assuming range of anywhere between 15 to 40 minutes, which could account for differing game factors, also since he had technical difficulties, we can assume he lost 5 minutes, so using the 15 minute number, he would have had to start the game at 9:26pm ish, and that would be well past the timestamp of the original pictures that were mysteriously taken. if we assume it was the 40 minute mark, that would mean he started at 9pm ish which makes this seem a little more reasonable, but not by much more, if we assume it was 30 minutes, the most likely number, it would have had to start at 9:10, which is also out of the plausible range, seeing as he would have cleared the alerts/checked them before, if he was so paranoid. So this claim only makes sense if the game time was upwards of 35 minutes. while this is possible, it is unlikely. what probably happened is he took the pictures, played a game, and set them back up where they were, which using the 20-30 minute estimate average, he would have enough time to re set up the cameras and write the post. that is assuming that a range of variables fit, but overall makes the most sense of this situation. and it is possible that those sets of images were not faked, and he did have the camera moved (based on the assumption that he is telling the truth, although that is already unlikely due to other behavior). if the cameras were moved by a 3rd party, it could fit the timestamp of the images. Assuming the game was upwards of 35 minutes. That does not explain why the second camera has such a fucked timestamp (after he quickly took still photos to check the camera location). the year on the inside camera does not match the outside camera, and while others have explained this as a common occurrence with these types of cameras, that does not explain why the cameras time is set incorrectly and it also doesn't explain why they dont match up with time zone differences, as well as the idea that a guy this paranoid about ghosts/intruders would not set up the camera. As well as the camera is connected to the internet, there should be automatic time sync (although it may not be a feature). also, why would a ghost take two pictures separated by almost 6 minutes exactly, just doesnt add up. conclusion: this, along with many other discrepancies, make op, almost certainly guilty.
I always liked the idea of setting up cameras in my house for security and just the experience like getting a backyard fence built or paint job done but then what if I catch something i wouldnt want to see like in this video or even if they get hacked or sum shi

Aryan Dey the fact that your comment was edited amazes me
Felt like people where forgetting the main thing, that some dude or woman was scratching the cat door. Seems like it was a hoax that took off and the dude didnt plan the whole hoax so he made shit up as it went then got bored with it or didnt know how to end it so he just ended it abruptly
This makes the most sense
He actually planned out at least the later parts of it, he set up the spiderweb in a clear storytelling fashion so that when it was used to prove the camera wasn't moved it was something the reader already knew. It's the classic Chekov's Gun situation.
True.
yep
that actually makes a lot of sense
"A scraggly person scratching at my cat door." Sounds like Floridaman's been putting meth in his beer again.

1. This is fake, I used to sell, install and maintain security cameras, including wireless Zmodo branded ones, you definetly have the option to disable motion detection and record continuously. With a 1TB hard disk, a 2MP camera (most commonly used) will record 4 months of continuous video at 1080p. An 8MP 4k security camera (extremely rare) will record for a month. In fact back in 2016 most wireless Zmodo cameras were 720p.
2. On top of that if the cameras were setup to only record on motion detection they would record a VIDEO! Not still photos. In fact they would record footage from 5 minutes before it detected any motion (the DVR records continuously even on Motion detection and deletes the videos after a certain period).
3. It doesnt matter what app you use to view the recording or watch the stream, you would never lose the videos if you changed apps, because the VIDEO IS STORED IN THE DVR!! The app only connects via p2p to stream the video from the dvr into your phone. The app does not store the video on your phone, unless you download a certain clip.
I can imagine this person isn't really all that tech-savvy, as they're talking about how the app 'changed' and they're only sharing stills, they don't seem like someone who knows that you should a.) change the default password for wifi cameras and b.) how to go through settings and set up a camera to record. My dad's had security cameras for our property for years, he stores a lot of construction equipment and they help monitor the comings and goings of the people he employs, works with, etc.
I think OP didn't know how to set shit up properly and wasn't about to admit that he screwed up some setting(hell he could have even set up his own phone to take stills every time the phone failed to unlock). He never shows us a screenshot of the app--and the cameras are totally hackable if you've set up Password123 as the password then figured it's totes secure--like I bet you can even save stills from your phone to the app/device. Why not share video? Why not double check all their wifi and camera settings after the first instance of obviously-inserted photo?
So I would say--Fake in that OP clearly isn't able to manage settings correctly, and is probably misinterpreting stuff as paranormal when really OP needs to brush up on their wifi security. It's like if I was one of those parents who kept the wifi password default on a camera or something and then when it was logged into by a random stranger I went "oh my god the camera's haunted!"
This should already be pinned.
Edit: I'm so stupid. Need to sleep.

I'm a cop & am backing up that this is fake.
He's got footage of everything but the cops checking out right where the cops would've been checking.

Can I get a Timestamp?
I'm an Electrical Engineer that has installed dozens of security systems & hundreds of sensors & cams.
Although I've never installed Zmodos in particular, here's what I know:
- There is no way in Hell for anyone to approach, unmount & move the cam around without getting caught by it.
Not even a ghost, since the cam's motion itself would trigger an alarm.
But!
Like I said I don't know those cams, but if they don't send alarms upon video loss/disconnections, then I guess it's doable if they're switched off before someone enters their visual range.
- There is no way he's picking up some neighbor's cam, as someone commented.
Seeing neighbor's cam (which is connected to a different router) is as possible as it is to see a random cam from the other side of the planet: not possible at all.
(Also, why would his neighbor have CCTV cams on his bed? 😛)
So, what are the possibilities?
- He's lying.
- He's using Zmodo's cloud storage instead of a DVR, from which he received some old snapshots from, I don't know, when he was testing/setting the cam on his bed?
Although it sounds weird & it's probably a rare glitch, something similar has happened to me personally (albeit only once).
I was installing an IP/cloud cam & when I got it online, I received snapshots of a workbench, the factory & the guy that presumably was testing it.
- The app itself &/or the previously stored snapshots are messed up & out of order (perhaps due to wrong timestamps or whatever), so he's seeing older snapshots as new.
- The ghost of a hacker or a cat burglar (no pun intended) is haunting him. 😱
Although I'm a cynical, skeptical Engineer, I can't dismiss that last possibility.
You see, my own cams have caught some weird crap over the years, at my in-the-middle-of-nowhere home.
Who knows...
What kind of weird crap? If you dont mind me asking
One hell of an analysis. Could be turned into a video!
Do you think it’s possible to send false footage to the app or camera? Basically hack the camera or app to edit videos or images, or even send new footage entirely?
This justifies my paranoia and distrust of anything "stored on the cloud".
Hell, all "cloud storage" even means is "our corporation will be able to access anything on your computer*"
*short of any sort of extensive software design, I know there's plenty of people who will go the extra mile with shit like VPN's and similar things that encrypt the data better, but for the average person, all cloud storage means is "sign here and trust us to have access to all your data, and we pinky promise never to delete your data if it takes up too much space or becomes an inconvenience(and you can TOOOOOTALLY trust us, right? It's not like silicon Valley isn't constantly "leaking" or losing data to hackers and rival entities")
Fuck cloud storage. If I get security cameras on my house the last thing I want is amy sort of internet connection running them together.

This is probably a hoax, because if you check out FlexGunship's account he posts fake scary stories on subs like r/nosleep and r/shortscarystories, so this was probably one of the scary stories that he wrote that he decided to continue due to popularity
I agree. Also the fact that his thread was moved or continued in the paranormal subreddit. Letsnotmeet is for true stories and events, not the "fake but real" style that nosleep is supposed to be.
@@Jessika28 Agreed
@Major Cbass Also, they could have easily used extension cords to take the pictures that were either inside or in the forest. Or maybe they just took normal pictures and photoshopped it so that the quality looked like something a camera would take
Yknow but r/nosleep and r/shortscarystories are supposed to be fictional horror threads
@@blue---monday Mellyanda Ratu I think he might've wanted to make up a convincing story to post on r/letsnotmeet for Reddit karma because his older stories didn't gain a lot of karma.
Stories like his are very common on subs like r/nosleep, but they're uncommon on r/letsnotmeet due to the fact that the stories there are usually real, and when they're made up they're usually not as extreme as FlexGunship's story, cause they're trying to be convincingly real.
FlexGunship probably just wanted karma and attention, like most redditors do, but decided that making very realistic fake stories on subreddits for that kind of thing was not getting him enough karma, and that posting one of his very convincing fake stories to letsnotmeet would probably gain more traction and give him lots of attention and Reddit karma, which it did.
I dont care if it's a hoax, I love stories like this, especially when they're framed so solidly in reality. It's entertaining.
The fact that you're not able to trust something so important as a camera is terrifying. It serves for a fantastic narrative and horror story.
I dont believe in any of this but damn the stories are cool
I don't. They are boring and totally take away any intrigue from the mystery - I want real shit that will scare me, not a hoax or ARG. It's not entertaining at all. I want reality, not fiction.

Something like that was one of my first thoughts, but if that was the case there's no way the camera would be getting shots of the bed without someone moving it, whether or not it's hacked.
Mmmm true.

You know what really kills this story for me? The fact that it started with scratching and actually catching someone doing it, but immidiately after we are told to forget all about it and hear about some weird unexplainable phenomenon going on.
"Oh it's probably just some kid messing with me, good thing I don't care enough to catch them. Oh, cops said theres someone living in my walls, guess I'll just uninstall the cameras so if i get attacked theres no evidence"
3:28 "Cameras"
There's 2 cameras, he only installs one, so he could just use the other one to take the inside shots without moving the outside camera.
I feel stupid for not thinking of this
This needs to be seen
It checks out as the listing does say it's a 2 pack.
If the post is true, they could have had the camera somewhere else (say the front of the house) just not included it's footage as there wasn't anything of note on it
Smugumin the second camera I believe was just unplugged and in the house but that still means that he could’ve just plugged it into somewhere and taken the pictures (also the fact that this guy was behaving just like a character in a movie or something says a lot lmao)
There is also the possibility that the camera was never moved at all. It's possible that someone was able to override the signal by using another camera. If the intent was to mess with this person, that would be far easier than all the nuanced installation and moving around of the original camera.
I'm deep in the comments
Or maybe, hoax.

they're wifi cameras... that shit can easily be faked through the use of a phone connecting to their wifi, then sending a signal to the camera system, and voila, magically the cameras are moving without actually moving.
Yeah I wondered that, maybe they're even seeing another camera's feed by accident or something.
@@jack1701e that's what i'm thinking his phone is just capturing every camera in the area for some reason
Yeah, cause the picture of the bed supposedly coming from the “camera” seemed higher quality than the shit quality from outside, so the person must’ve connected to it, make the cameras believe that the phone camera is the real camera, turn on the flashlight in the dark, and make the picture black and white.
The thing that killed this for me was the fact that OP was so dismissive of his back door being opened up in the middle of the night. Imagine exiting the shower to find your personal space being wide open to the pitch black night, especially considering the events previous, I would be scared shitless
Yeah tf?? Most people at that point of pictures being taken of their bed and shit would go for the nearest weapon and call the police...not close it and go to bed 🤦💀 that's a quick way to end up as a statistic
The biggest red flag for me is his inconsistencies with how he handles the situation, both by himself and with police. He calls the cops right off the rip with no issue - showing that he's willing to do so when feeling threatened - but then when hes out with friends and getting a bunch of alerts on his phone, he decides 'Hmm I'm gonna investigate myself', when a normal person would call the cops if it was legit. Not to mention he was allegedly so scared that he wouldn't stay there, why the sudden confidence to investigate? None of it adds up lol.

The unidentified man was seen digging his hands into the dish and eating the food that was left in the dish and...then...drinks the water from the other dish that was also left for the guys dog. I stopped and watched him do this because I saw the guy go behind this house and knew he didn't live there. I was on the way to the store so I though I would get him some real food along with my own and when I returned to the area he was still there but he seemed to scary to give food to so I kept walking not knowing if he was all together there you know. I stopped though to see if he would respond to me and as he looked at me I knew, well, not a good idea at this time. True story.

I know I’m a bit late, but working in network security, I can tell you that there are devices out there that will clone your WiFi enabled Camera. So this is entirely possible. A device clones the camera and temporarily disabled it and the new camera becomes the current feed. Then, upon disabling it, it goes back to the original one. It’s not that hard to do. Just a thought
(given its real:) isn't it still disturbing that the pictures captured are of/on/in OP's bed?
Good to know!
So could that happen with his phone if he's messing with his phone at night before he goes to sleep it would take a picture of his bed like that
Riis, read about MAC spoofing. Also, when you set up the cam, you probably only assign it a custom DHCP lease based on the MAC, not add it to a network whitelist, so if one would be to set a static IP on a device and disconnect the other one (either physically or by dropping it off the network with a ton of malfunctioned ARP packets (netcut-style)), it would be totally possible.
I'm wondering how did they get cameras compatible with that system to work exactly like the other ones did. Probably a fake because of this.

those consumer security cameras are notorious for having unsecured network connections - I think it might have even been you that made a video about those awful websites where people just tap into random private cameras around the world. It’s more than likely that the cameras just picked up a neighbor’s feed. Especially since that last bedroom shot had an arm in it while they were supposedly out of town. Still creepy but not impossible.
That first time was certainly a real break-in attempt though. Probably some dumbass thinking he was so smart for trying to get in through the cat door.

Bruh.
You did a lovely job on this video, but this story sounds very fake to me; again, not necessarily due to its contents but by the way it is told. It just strikes me as the way people talk when they're making something up, and not the way they talk when they're describing something that happened to them. Admittedly, there were a few parts toward the beginning that struck me as the way people talk when they're describing stuff that happened to them, but the farther along it went, the more it sounded like the way people talk when they're making up a story.
Rainy Jane totally agree. Too much detail and explaining why they were doing things. “I closed the curtains because I like to walk around naked..” that kind of stuff. I’d imagine someone just saying “my curtains were open when they were closed before”
Odds are the first post was somewhat real (Stray cat or something) but then he just made it supernatural to get more karma.

What if someone was taking pictures with a separate camera; hacked the mounted camera to make it look like the mounted camera took the pictures?
Or maybe it was a hoax and the op himself was taking pictures with seperate cameras.
That was my thoughts. But more leaning towards that so.meone might have bugged his house.
Is the camera itself mounted to the wall or is the based screwed in and the camera detaches from the base?

12:24 fr no one is going to bring this up and just keep a straight face
You missed a possibility, the dude's account has been comprised, possibly through a leak of major company users, People will often use the same email and pasword for multiple services.
Doors can be breached often times without much effort at all with simple tools, not even picking locks, slipping latches is really easy if the door isn't fit correctly.
The intruder likely has access to the account and purchases an identical camera. This way, he could turn off the outside camera, walk right in through the improperly fitted door latch, do what ever the hell he wants, including unplugging something, plugging in the camera, then putting the plugs back how they were, or just using a power pack to power the camera.
Mr. Guy doesn't know about the third camera because the intruder only joins it long enough to take the pictures, and when there is a manual picture taken and the patio camera is somewhere else, he has just disjointed patio camera and renamed the third camera to patio.
I am not a hacker, but I could do what was done to this guy for 20 bucks for some credentials on the dark web, maybe 30 bucks for a camera, and 2 bucks for a bent piece of metal.
Also the intruder knows when the guy is gone because he also has access to the app and the cameras can show when the guy leaves the house.
This is why proper security is important.
Why is this explanation underated??? This is exactly what I have in mind.
@@xeinbee161 I guess because it doesn't rely on ghosts playing with cameras. It makes the most sense and nothing in my explanation is impossible. If I wanted, I could make a how to guide on doing this. ... But I really don't want to.
Yes I agree, This is what I was thinking the whole time. The cameras sharing information via wifi signal opened them up to anyone with enough know-how. If this is even real, which it very well may not be.
This is scarier than ghosts. Someone having complete access to your house.
Xein Bee because a logical explanation for what possibly happened would diminish the creepiness of the unknown/supernatural.
OP’s cat is so cute in the bed pic 🥺
I was confused because I don't remember subscribing to a Nexpo... :D

he ordered two cameras tho. wheres the second one?

It probably is a hoax, however one theory is that someone was able to gain access to his computer through malware, and was able to send alerts to his phone from his Webcam as if it was from his security system
I'm like 90% sure that it's like a GoPro and it's just getting connected to the same connection
no its just fake.. he clearly just used the second camera to take the pictures in his bedroom
may yeah I don't get how anybody is believing this lol, the cat is literally chilling there at the foot of the bed while some "intruder" is just walking around and taking some pics.
@@tommyvenezia3654 the cat when someone is safely outside: *hisses*
the cat when someone is literally in the house: i see nothing wrong here
His solution is to ignore the ghost. _Epic_ 👍
They REALLY love that...
To be honest just up and leaving the home or apartment is usually not the best idea for most of these things. People don't have that much money or time to just change places all the time or just buy new houses. Staying over someone's place will not last forever. So its either live with the ghost or be homeless and I prefer living with ghosts that just love to play with cameras. Still I don't think this story is true anyways lmao.
He could probably take some hints from that postcontent channel on dealing with apparitions

"Strange things are happening to me! Im just gonna stop investigating and live in ignorant bliss"
What the heck is that dude thinking. Get /x/ to investigate it. That's what i would do lol
the only thing keeping me watching this video was making sure their cats would be ok
Maybe the app is fxcked up and it's taking pictures from his phone's front camera without him noticing and without his consent? I mean, idk if I understood the story but to me it makes sense more than ghosts or even sleepwalking.
It's a hoax. There, solved it.
proof bro?
@@frzsri2018 source: trust me bro
@@RedDeadDepressionist Wouldn't this work for the actual story too though? XD
Hey Nexpo, I know this video is old but here is what FlexGunship had to say about your video.
"Meh. I don't live there anymore; bought a house across town. Nothing happened after the cameras came down. I got called a liar and got shit on enough to basically just ignore questions. Video seems fast paced compared to real life... Took months for all of that to happen. Weird to see it distilled down to a few minutes."
Bruh so it was fake lmao😂
Even his explanation seems fake
TreeStain “video seems fast paced compared to real life” that was the dumbest observation I’ve heard.
Or cameras were hacked.... leaving the originals untouched
The reason these stories immediately come across as bullshit is that the people claiming them to be real always act like characters in a horror movie. The only thing missing in the story was him calling out, "Helloooo" when he got home after the "motion sensor" alert.
No one in their right mind would go home. You would immediately call the police and tell them there's a possible break in happening at that moment. This is also why all haunting stories are bullshit. No one would stay in a house/apartment/cardboard box where an entity you have no control over is intruding. You would immediately leave.

So he’s just scrolling through reddit responses and suddenly a whole essay just takes up the whole screen
I'm confused. What am I supposed to be seeing in these pics?
The camera was supposed to be aimed at the backyard, not his bedroom or the couch.
@@chadschmaltz9790 Oh ok! Thanks for clearing that up. I was thinking they had one inside and outside for some reason.
It's spoOoOoOOky
It was a dead giveaway when they said they had no outlets and they couldn’t go without their fan or lamp... if you’re buying all these security cameras you might as well buy a $10 power strip
The ending was just cringe like why tf would you act like it’s real. (Talking about the person on Reddit)
13:38 that looks like a chest but alright
It does, doesn't it? A lot of the images were a bit confusing...
Looks like a selfie, you can see the arm and the chest while tucked under the cover, with a weird figure or shade of something light/white standing at the end tip of the bed...
It looks like somebody with their hand down their pants to be honest
Literally hold there phone and puting a black and white filter on
wow so fake. probably bought a kit with 2 cameras, installed one, and used the other for the spooky pics. especially with them then using that camera to point at the first camera. And It was convenient that getting rid of the cameras "solved" the issue even though it seemed the issue was just that the cameras were moving, sounds like they were done with the story and getting rid of the cameras essentially ends the story as it was 100% of the content..
Also if it's not triggering right why not just have it go full-dvr mode for a day or two. because it's fake, that's why not.
Swizzler121 I scrolled too long to find this comment nobody is talking about how it’s fake
even if it’s fake it’s very entertaining.
That is definitely a possible explanation, but what the redditor himself was arguing was that the intruders were likely there just to mess with his cameras, thus removing the cameras caused the intruders to not mess with him anymore.
I know this is a hoax. But a small camera could easily be feed electricity from a portable charger.
Pretty sure a phone and some basic photoshop editing knowledge would work.
I think its a hoax or someone is hackimg the camera so it shows a camera on a desk
I love how the narrator sometimes pauses for dramatic effect, but what I love even more is that the effect has absolutely no impact on me and many others either lmao.

The timestamp on the picture on the left says 2013
Okay not staying this is real but I can explain the different year on the camera. They were new security cameras and he probably just set up the time and just hadn't set up the year yet. My dad got a dashcam and it was the same way and still is the same way. (It says 2012 if anybody is wondering lol) and also sometimes some dash cams on cop cars are the same way where the timestamp is correct but the year is not they usually try to correct this though.
doesn't explain why the time is not matching on either camera, he finished a game of starcraft, which can range from 10 minutes to an hour, but usually lie within the 20-30 mark, I find it hard to believe that he had not checked the alerts earlier, seeing as the game is not full focus the entire time, and with our assuming range of anywhere between 15 to 40 minutes, which could account for differing game factors, also since he had technical difficulties, we can assume he lost 5 minutes, so using the 15 minute number, he would have had to start the game at 9:26pm ish, and that would be well past the timestamp of the original pictures that were mysteriously taken. if we assume it was the 40 minute mark, that would mean he started at 9pm ish which makes this seem a little more reasonable, but not by much more, if we assume it was 30 minutes, the most likely number, it would have had to start at 9:10, which is also out of the plausible range, seeing as he would have cleared the alerts/checked them before, if he was so paranoid. So this claim only makes sense if the game time was upwards of 35 minutes. while this is possible, it is unlikely. what probably happened is he took the pictures, played a game, and set them back up where they were, which using the 20-30 minute estimate average, he would have enough time to re set up the cameras and write the post. that is assuming that a range of variables fit, but overall makes the most sense of this situation. and it is possible that those sets of images were not faked, and he did have the camera moved (based on the assumption that he is telling the truth, although that is already unlikely due to other behavior). if the cameras were moved by a 3rd party, it could fit the timestamp of the images. Assuming the game was upwards of 35 minutes. That does not explain why the second camera has such a fucked timestamp (after he quickly took still photos to check the camera location). the year on the inside camera does not match the outside camera, and while others have explained this as a common occurrence with these types of cameras, that does not explain why the cameras time is set incorrectly and it also doesn't explain why they dont match up with time zone differences, as well as the idea that a guy this paranoid about ghosts/intruders would not set up the camera. As well as the camera is connected to the internet, there should be automatic time sync (although it may not be a feature). also, why would a ghost take two pictures separated by almost 6 minutes exactly, just doesnt add up.
conclusion: this, along with many other discrepancies, make op, almost certainly guilty.
I always liked the idea of setting up cameras in my house for security and just the experience like getting a backyard fence built or paint job done but then what if I catch something i wouldnt want to see like in this video or even if they get hacked or sum shi
Damn it, I was in that "spooky" mood all the way to the 12:23 mark. I ruined my own mood laughing at that kid.
