Max headroom is creepy. Would be awesome to see it live on tv.

The Lincolnshire poacher is a favorite. Can I use it as my voicemail greeting?
 
The toyota 911 phone call is sad. You can hear the wife and kid in the back.

Never looking at this thread again. The daughter's scream at the end. Jesus fuck.
 
I've always found this one infinitely horrifying.

Also, not creepy but, the sound of Jupiter is an interesting listen. Very calming, helps me sleep.

Good ones.

There are a few "creepy" ambient/drone pieces I like that are in the same vein:

Maenad - A Thousand Petals - mainly the "Pigs My Fly" track.

"Dead People's Things by Deathprod - minimalist drone but really amazing

"Ghosts on Magnetic Tape I" by Bass Communion

Anything by Darcy Odrai - lots of AM/white noise sounds infused into ambient drone

Biosphere & Deathprod - Journey to the Centre of the First 1.1 - this always reminds me of "The Shining" if the little girls were playing down the hallway and their voices were recorded.

518 vs Joel - The Singularity
 
The Station Fire video at the top of that Reddit link is truly gut-wrenching and scary. The whole place went up in flames in less than 5 minutes, if you hadn't gotten out of the front door in the first 90 seconds or so, you were dead or badly injured.

Not to mention the screams of the people being burned alive.

a 100 people died in that fire....
 
That Station fire video. Ive tried watching it three times now and I just can't. The 5 minute mark is so depressing.
 
Basically its a concert (of the band great white) in a really small venue with about 300 people. They do some pyrotechnics that catch fire, someone in the crowd was filming like a video documentary. The flames spread and people start rushing outside. Eventually the camera man goes back to one of the doorways that is now billowing black smoke, and you see a ton of people stuck in the door way, they are on the ground piled on top of each other trying to get out, but their are too many people behind them trying to get out. The fire spreads VERY quickly in it. The fire department is on the scene fairly quickly actually, but its too late by the time they get their. You don't see anything graphic or nasty, but the screams when its happening of everyone trying to get out, and knowing how many people died in their is a bit hard to watch.
 
The Trumpets of the Apocalypse one I am watching right now and it's not very convincing. Sounds like a bunch of echoes from vehicles, people playing music or construction in the distance.

I stopped watching after the first trumpets one, it's from around the hanging lake area near Glenwood Springs, Colorado. There is a train that runs along the river in the canyon, makes banging noises that echo up when you hike. Great hike though.
 
Oh yea, forgot to say. Fuck you thread again.

I listened to the majority of stuff in this thread and the reddit list at 2am while my gf was sleeping.

I had trouble sleeping for 2 nights in a row. I hate the internet
 
There's basically a part in the video where the cameraman goes back to a doorway he was at earlier. The first time he filmed the doorway there was basically a wall of people three feet high. The second time he goes back, 2 minutes later he can't even see the doorway. All he sees is thick black smoke and hears the cries of people as they're being burned alive. It's chilling.
 
I saw the station fire video for the first time Saturday night. I'm still deeply disturbed by it. Goddamn this thread and my curiosity.
 
Just finished the video. Holy fuck. This hit me harder than the Kevin Cosgrove one. Seeing that guy absolutely engulfed at 6 minutes is horrifying.

Man I stupidly clicked on some of the comments links to parts of the video on youtube, one of them being that dude at 6 mins. I just ate 20 mins ago and i'm not sure if it's staying down >.<

Oh god, at the six minute mark you can clearly see a man stuck at the front entrance burning to death. What horrific way to go, he was so close...


:(
 
The Station club fire video isn't creepy. It's horrific. It spread so fast.
 
I'm incredibly claustrophobic, so seeing the station fire video, and imagining myself in that situation made me sick to my stomach. I couldn't make it past the 6 minute mark.
 
I just watched that horrible fire video, too. I don't know why I did it in retrospect. I don't think I'm going to sleep well at all tonight. Good lord, I can't imagine anything more horrible right at this moment. I keep thinking what if I and my wife were in there? Would we have made it out?
argh.
 
Can one of you give me a vague summary of the "brick through the window" that people keep talking about? Not sure if it's something I want to see.

It's a windshield cam showing a car driving down a road when a brick flies off the back of a truck heading towards the car. The brick smashes directly into the passenger seat, and you hear the desperate screams of a man, presumably the driver.

Thanks.

I couldn't understand why he was crying for his mom. Then read the discription and found out that the brick had penetrated the windshield killing the passenger which was his mom. So very very sad and tragic. :(
 
God, that brick video and the one where the old lady is being murdered and screaming for help... omg :(

I'm getting goose bumps just remembering her screams. Dammit.
 
The terrifying thing about the Fire video was how quickly it spread, which is emphasized by the timer in the vid. The whole place is literally a towering inferno in 10 minutes. And basically, if you didn't get out in the first 90 seconds or so and tried to get out the front entrance, you were dead.

Not to mention I read the power went out right after the cameraman left, so you really were likely fucked since the billowing smoke with no light would make it impossible to see, unless you happened to know your way to one of the alternate exits aside from the front (but therein lies the worse rub that most of the Fire Exits were welded shut to keep people from sneaking in)

Huh, I read that it was his wife (she was only 28), and their baby was in the back seat which you can hear. Not that it makes it any better (probably even worse).
 
Hmm. I could've read it wrong. I'll need to go back and reread it.

I just finished listening to the missing 411 show from C2CAM. Knapp is so great. His guest, and the stories, were surpurb. Classic Coast.
 
Anyone else listening to C2C right now? This current story about the missing boy in Tennessee is bone-chilling. When Paulides mentioned the family in Cades Cove (I've been there many times before) that noticed a strange figure darting between trees while watching them, and then hearing a blood-curdling scream, I had to get up and go take a coffee break.

I love George Knapp's shows.

Listened to the YouTube link another GAFer kindly shared on this show (thanks INDIGO).

Man, oh man... very creepy stuff. I'm just fascinated by the Dennis Martin case. What the hell happened to that kid? Why were the Green Beret there (same with the Douglas Legg case in NY two years later)?

Also the Bart Schleyer case. No way a guy with his level of skill and expertise gets overtaken by a bear without some kind of struggle. Also: his pants were found, undamaged (although this conflicts with another report I read), and inside out? What the hell? The guy was apparently completely consumed other than a few small bones and a piece of his jaw. Something is just very wrong about that one, especially.

Started the one on Mel's Hole from Art Bell (1997 through 2002, was it?). Only got about 7 parts in and look forward to picking it up again tonight. Read up on it, though.
There is no trace of anyone by the name of 'Mel Waters' in that area, especially one that owns property. There is speculation of where the hole might be, but nothing that matches caller Mel's descriptions (i.e. metal cover, etc.). People are still looking for it.
. Even if it is just a classic nutty Art Bell caller, it's a fascinating little story so far.

argh.

one of the parts that bothered me the most was at the beginning when the cameraman is (fortunately for him) one of the first people out you can hear a woman among the escaping people yelling/crying "WHERE'S MY HUSBAND? MY GOD WHERE'S MY HUSBAND?"

:(
 
The fire department was their in like five minutes, which I thought was amazing time given how fast it all started. Ashame even that was too late.
