So who's the small child if it's not Robert?

That's more intriguing than scary but you would have to play it with complete silence imo as your only other available sense is now hearing.

Really, hope whoever comes up with this stupid idea get arrested and fired. That is invasion to priorities.

This is an opportunity for an underwater breathing apparatus that does not require you to carry an oxygen tank imo, hope someone figures out how to synthetically create that net.

Damn impressive. Helluva yogi!

That's kind of cool.

I'm old enough to remember the TV ads reminding people of the danger and to remove the doors from any old refrigerators they were disposing of.

Alot of care shown there. Must be great respect or a whole lot of love by the people applying that.

The murders, a nazi terrorist group. The victims (except the last one, who was a policewoman) were all immirants, mostly from Turkey (one or two from Greece). They were shot in the middle of day in their self-owned shops. I am so truely ashamed to say that for YEARS, German police did not suspect rascist motivation, even when the families and immigrant communites got the message. Instead, police suspected the victims were part of organised d**g crimes and therefore assisinated by some mafia groups, and kept questioning the families about their dead father's criminal businesses. They killed a total of 10 people in 7 cities and only got caught after setting their camping van on fire. The two men died, the women survived and was convicted to life sentence. It is likely that not all supporters/criminals have been detected.

On the next episode of "Nope Rope Island"...

Kathy Bates is really good at portraying characters that are just off. I expect in real life, she's a very nice person.

But now he runs a Chinese restaurant called City Wok. That's his "main" personality.

If your mirror has a monster in it do not shout. This kind of situation does not call for freaking out. And do nothing that you would not like to see him do. Cause that monster in the mirror, he just might be you!

And what if your reflection crawls out of the mirror and grabs you by the ankles? Asking for... reasons...

This post was written by Bloody Mary.

Serious question. Is this what happens during zoom meetings, too? I spend a lot of time in front of the computer, but NEVER have I been as bored as when I had to attend a zoom meeting.

A friend of mine wet her pants at my 11th birthday sleepover after we did "Bloody Mary" in the bathroom. :)

It's not exactly that your brain "wants to scare you" out of boredom, and there are other factors at play here. For starters, this "dimly lit room" is actually dark - with just enough light to see yourself in the mirror vaguely. The whole thing is about sensory deprivation: you're unmoving, sit in complete silence, can't see anything other than this - also unmoving - outline of a person, staring steadily into it. It's foreign enough sensation that after a while your brain will start trying to make sense of it. And one way brain helps you/itself understanding things that are for whatever reason incomplete is extrapolation. It does it all the time, i.e. filling in the details and shapes of things in your peripheral vision. In this experiment, the lack of any sensory input can lead to brain extrapolating even the smallest changes, impulses etc. Tiny flick of dust in the corner of your eye may feel like a person standing by, unexpected blink in the mirror could feel like different person a

Challenge accepted!

Why would anyone want to watch themselves in (presumably) a mirror for ten minutes? Well, ok, there is a sort of niche market for that!

I cant find any science to support this.

I tried this. No such thing happened. Seems made up.

Made up. Not evern reality. People live on their own and without issues

He used to babysit the neighbours kids. Also may have had an accomplice. To dig up a grave in the middle of winter in one just one night would be near impossible with the frozen ground. Especially on your own.

Just call it "the hot hole challenge" or something equally stupid and people will be falling all over themselves to do it for internet clout.

wtf

Kid’s first name was Tyler. https://www.cbsnews.com/news/tyler-hadley-who-killed-his-parents-at-17-then-threw-party-sentenced-to-life/

Personally, I'm ok with him not getting his spaghetti-o's.

The Earth’s butthöle

This does not work with twins though.

I get to deal with sleep paralysis as a symptom of my ptsd. It super sucks being trapped in a nightmare, unable to move, while hearing and feeling my husband trying to wake me. It's terrifying.

There's an episode of Hannibal based around this.

The first thing I thought of was the gom jabbar.

Not long enough.

Which is why it's believed that syphilis is a New World disease. The conquistadors brought smallpox and measles, and returned with syphilis.

...wtf this is fifteen min from where I live?!?!

Where else was he supposed to keep them?

Looks like those £2000 per month apartment units that get advertised now.

I read a book about her and the whole thing was just appalling from beginning to end. The kid was being subjected to horrendous abuse at home. Then she murdered those two little boys and afterwards smilingly asked one of the bereaved mothers if she could please see the victim in his coffin. She was also aided by another young girl who seems to have been drawn in by her and who after their arrest acted like you'd expect a child that age to act, crying and terrified. Mary, on the other hand, was eerily calm and told all sorts of elaborate lies to try and get herself off the hook. She was eventually set free as an adult and even had a child of her own.

No. They were more concerned about overdosing little babies than managing their pain.

The guillotine was meant to be merciful. Before its invention, people were beheaded by axes that weren't always the sharpest. Sometimes it would take several minutes of hacking by the executioner. With the guillotine, one slice and you're done.

The Sawney Bean stories are probably made up. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sawney_Bean#Sources_and_veracity

worse it's also covered in giant spiders

Pretty good movie. Make sure to watch it in Spanish with subtitles (if needed).

Statistics like this rarely mean anything. I'm reminded of a news report stating that prisoners with surnames beginning with M were more likely to reoffend. Guess where the survey was taken? Scotland.

Sleep paralysis?

Now that one was creepy.

An eternity in Heaven is indistinguishable from an eternity in Hell.

So the film she used up during the day, some how got an extra photo on them, taken at night, after it was taken out of the camera...? Maybe update this scary story with a digital camera. Would make more sense

Not quite. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christine_Paolilla#Murders
