Why did I do this to myself??? 😭😭😭😭😭😭 I’m in my bathroom putting my makeup on, getting ready to go to a Christmas party and I’m sobbing listening to the first story about Holly. My husband passes the bathroom and looks at me and he’s like are you crying?? I tell him about Holly’s story, he cries too. 😢 R.I.P Holly. This world is so evil. I wish it wasn’t. 💔
There is a pretty good theory that Jonbenet's brother may have killed her and her parents covered it up. The police bungled that crime scene horribly. Love that you are covering true crime cases!
That has always been my theory as well. Way to many inconsistencies in the whole case. The detectives and cops totally blew it and I think they did it on purpose because of who the family was.
"Do you know what happens if you aren't a good boy or girl? Santa will need to get Krampus on you... Krampus loves to punish little bitches and bastards like you! Ho ho ho!"
No they were not an incredible collection they were a sick collection of sick stories of nothing but murder maybe you're capable of something like what's in these stories anyone that could enjoy stories like these are sick in the head
@@debbieshaw9018 I mean, ur opinion is just an opinion. 99.9% here would say ur wrong and a very closed off person. Someone these are based of true stories. The world isn't sunshine and daisies grow a backbone
I have come up with a strategy to keep my kids from misbehaving around Christmas time. I keep empty wrapped boxes under the tree and when one of my kids misbehaves, I throw one into the fireplace. The situation changes, however, when I run out of children
A train driver once told me while we were smoking before departure that suicide by train spikes between christmas and new year. Suicide generally spikes at this time anyways, because its the time when the most lonely people see thier loneliness kind of "rubbed in thier face" because of the "family time" commercials. So extra sad bit for you guys to think about. Be kind to one another, you never know what the other person is going through.
With the Ramsey case it's got to be either the parents, the son or someone so close to them that they helped cover it up. A) the money you mentioned was the exact amount they had in their bank account b) the attack happened IN the house and no one woke up to her screaming, crying and thrashing about? C) the father did a very good job of destroying or compromising any evidence left on her body by by picking her up bring her upstairs and then covering her in a blanket. There is a heap of other things to but they are the main ones. I've read a few books on the case and I started with an open mind not thinking the parents could be involved but after reading the "ransom note" and the fathers reaction to finding her body I started thinking...... Maybe!?!
Not married even a year and Pardo should pay alimony? And she had her own money why couldn't she pay for three kids from a previous relationships? She sounded like a real gem
Merey Christmas from Indiana! I so wish I was in England! I'm dying to visit but I'd much rather have been born there. I'm sure it has downfalls like any place but I've loved England since I was a kid.
Thinking abt the creepy kid story: I'd have told him: "Santa isn't the only one that gets gifts for people on Christmas! We like to get gifts for each other on Christmas to show how much we love each other and make our loved ones happy. We help Santa and people just like you find the perfect gifts."
The story with the creepy, bratty kid in the toy store... if I were the retail employee, I would've just whispered "Santa doesn't exist" I suppose that's why I've never had a job at a toy store
Covina native here. The Christmas Massacre was a terrible and tragic thing that unfortunately happened in my hometown just two streets away from me. Will never forget how shocked the town was and how Christmas was just not the same that year. RIP 😢❤️
If buying from Craigslist (or any MarketPlace type app) meet someplace neutral and PUBLIC. You don't want them to know where you live in case it is someone looking to break in at a later date. (Or cause some other harm). Don't go to their place in case it is a setup. I may sound paranoid, but I don't want to be a 10 o'clock news blurb.
Hey Lets Read! Been a long time fan now, and actually am starting to do some narrations myself (thanks to your influence and many others), wanted to know if you use any special audio recording software? I'm using audacity because its free, just wanted to know your take on that or if you are familiar with it? Also where do you get your stories from? Are they all fan submissions? Thanks again! keep the videos coming!
I use an H4N. It has an SD card in it so i can start and stop, creating multiple wav files, that i transfer over to my computer. Edit the audio together using sony vegas. Take that completed audio over to audacity to remove background noise, then back over to sony vegas for video editing. I ask permission for stories from reddit and also get stories submitted. Best of luck!
Yikes hunny😳 well cuddle up with your loved ones and fur babies (if any) and listen to some lets read stories......hot chocolate, christmas lights, a fire place......sounds cozy☺ Merry Christmas to you and Everyone here💕 From Detroit
I used to work very close to where that massacre ocurred. One of the surviving kids went to where I worked but I never knew the full story. The man was obviously wrong for taking mattters into his own hands, but so hard to feel bad for that greedy woman who helped create that mess. He had ZERO kids with her!
What makes the Poly Sterns story even more creepy is that before he carried out the massacre, he went to Church for Christmas mass. If he was seriously that unstable to kill nine people, imagine if he had planned to start his crime spree at the church... Icing on the cake? He purchased the Santa costume from a lady that was a parishioner there weeks prior. Source: Have a friend from that area who read about it.

There is a pretty good theory that Jonbenet's brother may have killed her and her parents covered it up. The police bungled that crime scene horribly. Love that you are covering true crime cases!
That’s exactly what I think happened %100
I think so too😢
That has always been my theory as well. Way to many inconsistencies in the whole case. The detectives and cops totally blew it and I think they did it on purpose because of who the family was.
A nine year old?
How ridiculous!
@@tessaducek5601 look up the murder of James Bulger.
Your santa voice isn't bad yourself. Would you ever do a mall santa? Haha
Steven Shockley He can tell the kids scary stories lol
His Santa voice is even creepy
"Do you know what happens if you aren't a good boy or girl? Santa will need to get Krampus on you... Krampus loves to punish little bitches and bastards like you! Ho ho ho!"
And I still believe JonBenet's brother killed her and the parents covered up for him.
Me too...
So do I. It seems that her brother killed her, that was my conclusion too.
or the dad...
Me too. Sounds weird, but the night it happened I had a dream about a kid being killed by her brother. Then woke up to the news.
@@PerlaNera729 doesn't sound weird to me, our dreams can tell us stuff.
That one story with the kid with a twisted sense of Christmas straight up freaked me out. I'm so glad I don't work at any malls.
I’d be like well if that’s what Santa does to those who’ve been bad then y hasn’t he gotten u yet
RIP Poly Styrene 💖
And victims of the Christmas massacre
What about the victims of the Texas Chainsaw Massacre?
What an incredible collection! Second to Halloween, this is my favorite time of the year! Thanks, LR!
You both are fantastic ❣️
@The Reverend Jim Jones pass me that flavor-aid
Wait a minute, somethings off. This doesn't feel right. Having CTfDN in LR's comment section. Hmmmmmmm.
No they were not an incredible collection they were a sick collection of sick stories of nothing but murder maybe you're capable of something like what's in these stories anyone that could enjoy stories like these are sick in the head

Yeah I agree with the first reply, I think adoption is clearly the best solution
Would be freaking hilarious if u accidently threw in one with presents
@@skyflyer9095 😂😂😂😂😂😂
I laughed a little too hard at this comment. Good one.
Put seasoning on the children for a delicious Christmas feast with family!
23:20 - “Will be a name you won’t ever forget.” Me: “I’ve already forgotten. What was the guy’s name again?”
MissTapsit I don’t even remember 😂
"Bruce" something.
Last name Pardo
Something having to do with that disease dogs get lol
Some guy that really knows how to handle a divorce.
I wasn't paying attention for a second and then i heard "HOLLY" and got a scare.
Holly Coles Lol
LOL
Well I think his purpose was served ,😂
It gave me chills too
Holly Hale lol
“All I want for Christmas is a friend”
Awhhhhhh my God my heart is absolutely broken 💔💔💔😫😩😭
Robert Ringwald Why everybody have to make this comment anytime someone reacts to a story? Fiction can still make you sad.
RadRich yeah cause you’re ‘edgy’, aren’t you?
@RadRich
Says it's not edgy... Proceeds to write one hell of an edgy statement.
@RadRich
No need to say it buddy, it shows.
It’s a good thing it was fake that dumb mall Santa would have had guilt for the rest of his life.
These stories aren't even scary, they're just super depressing
My vhs of National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation and both DVD copies had all finally stopped working last Christmas. Good luck topping that fear.
That guy who wanted the xbox never give your adress to anyone your lucky they did not come back
A train driver once told me while we were smoking before departure that suicide by train spikes between christmas and new year.

Be kind to one another, you never know what the other person is going through.
Ads are nothing.but make-believe crap to sell products
I know it's easy to say, but people shouldn't take them seriously

Yeah, and I never thought right about them, when they refused for so long, to take a polygraph. They were a strange couple, and their son is weird.
Polygraphs are highly unreliable that’s why they’re inadmissible.
For sure it was them.
I caught this livestream last night now all I can think about while listening to this is you dropping a random F-bomb 😂 Yeets & canned eggs omg 😂
@Daniel Youngblood Several of them 😂
sick in bed all week with a really annoying head cold and seeing you uploaded made my day :))
Dude you should find some scary railroad worker experience stories!
RIP
Jonbenet Ramsey
That first one was heartwrenching!
I cried
I cried when it finished because I have a little girl =(
Dam was she SMH we have story of missing mom newborn baby since Dec
Yeah I almost cried. It was hard listening to.
I looked it up no one with that name missing or remains found it would have been a big news story
Am I the only weirdo who listens to these stories to help me sleep?
That moment when you're so early, and there's no good comments to like yet, and so you become that good comment 😏
Ikr
True dat.
But now we get to like YOUR comments, you trendsetter, you! Woot!
Stonks!
😂
Not married even a year and Pardo should pay alimony? And she had her own money why couldn't she pay for three kids from a previous relationships? She sounded like a real gem
I was thinking the same exact thing! Like wtf what was she doing prior to them dating and while they were dating!?
Right?!
The Ramsey story got to me. I remember when that was happening.
You remember the circus that it was turned into? They were guilty of her death whether they murdered her or not.
Jonbenet was killed by her brother and her parents tried to cover it up.
The true crime ones are good but I'd love to hear some Christmas ghost stories
Something to get me through my night shift in Baltic England.
Hello from Washington State USA!
Chicago ill here my bois hey brothas
Merey Christmas from Indiana! I so wish I was in England! I'm dying to visit but I'd much rather have been born there. I'm sure it has downfalls like any place but I've loved England since I was a kid.
Holiday greetings from Gothenburg, Sweden!
Salutations from London, UK !
Story: I just couldn’t keep that little girl off my mind
Me: that ughh
Just in time for my nap😋 you're my absolute favourite!!
You're soothing wonderful voice helps so much today when my head is suffering with a migraine. Thank you again my friend. Great Job!
You'll have a scary Christmas story if you go into my woods
That sounds sexual 🤣
Bigfoot has WiFi, watch out!
Yeets

Haha thought that was Masterchief enjoying a warm fire.
Thinking abt the creepy kid story: I'd have told him: "Santa isn't the only one that gets gifts for people on Christmas! We like to get gifts for each other on Christmas to show how much we love each other and make our loved ones happy. We help Santa and people just like you find the perfect gifts."
I listened to this while laying down with my eyes closed and it felt like I was floating... :0 waaaa?
The story with the creepy, bratty kid in the toy store... if I were the retail employee, I would've just whispered "Santa doesn't exist"
I suppose that's why I've never had a job at a toy store
It's 2 am and I am watching this
Why? Just why would I do this to myself?
Can't resist?
Eeeeep! So happy i was able to listen to you record this live last night! I remember some of the questions and many “yeet”s lmao
Today is Christmas Eve I'm opening my gifts today at 12 am can't wait that's why im watching this video
Hope you got what you wanted and had a safe Christmas.
The best title for the second story is "X Box One Axe" 🤷🏿♂️
😂😂😂😂

Covina native here. The Christmas Massacre was a terrible and tragic thing that unfortunately happened in my hometown just two streets away from me. Will never forget how shocked the town was and how Christmas was just not the same that year. RIP 😢❤️
I actually watched the story about Pardo a few years ago. Very horrific!! But I enjoy listening to your voice. Merry Christmas to you and yours!!
Christmas should be a happy time for family&friends getting together
Goodnight from Scotland since it’s 00:20 smh
I’m just sitting on my couch eating a candy necklace as I listen to this 🤣😂🤣😂
That angry, creepy kid in that toy store was totally the kid from Silent Night Deadly Night
The first story with Holly broke my heart 🥺
I’m mad....I can’t see my forehead...
Yellow
O
Just what I was waiting for! Thank you:)
My absolute fave vid intro. So retro - futuristic....reminds me of Beyond The Black Rainbow.
I’ve heard all these stories before, is this a replay?
Literally my favorite narrator

None of them are real.

Well thanks for leaving me depressed after that last one gees
Great video yet agin !🙂❤️

I remember the Joanna Yeats murder happening, it was such a sad and awful thing to happen.
I listened to this all on live and I fell asleep to your voice!
I like this intro, do all your videos like that.
Literally had to stop what I was doing when the first one ended. Jesus.. That poor girl..
😩😩🎄🎄 I love your channel
"But in ten minutes or so it'll be a name you'll never ever forget"
I already forgot it 😂
hey y'all stay safe !! especially during the holidays :))
I would legitimately listen to 5 min of adds in the beginning of every video if it meant no adds during. I can’t fall asleep to this lol
What makes the Poly Sterns story even more creepy is that before he carried out the massacre, he went to Church for Christmas mass. If he was seriously that unstable to kill nine people, imagine if he had planned to start his crime spree at the church...
