I've been fascinated by the paranormal and by unsolved mysteries all my life. This is an excellent and very well narrated channel. Keep up the great work!
I really liked the story about the ghostly airforce pilot. How sad that he died out there alone. Hopefully for him it was instant and upon impact, so he didn't suffer..
I often recommend this channel for the research done in the stories, and how well put toghether the videos are. Also it's nice to watch videos about paranormal things that are just telling stories without trying to convince you about anything.
Another great series of stories my friend, excellent research and narration. Your channel should be one the biggest on TH-cam. Thank you for this as always its greatly appreciated, God bless.
Love the channel, you always have great stories. You obviously have a beautiful voice for narrating, and have no click bating. You let the audience come to their own conclusions. Thank you, and will see you next time.
Great video. Thanks for your solid research on original & fascinating stories. It is so refreshing to hear new stories rather than the same old ones. There is something so authentic about the old ghost stories.
It is always very pleasant to find a new Curious World video has been uploaded. Excellent as always with very solid research--the skull in the clouds before the moon is also rather eerily effective around the 6:30 mark!
I've always been sceptical about spirits and ghost's until being in the basement of the hotel where I work. I've never been scared to go down there and haven't seen anything but I sensed a man running down the long corridor, it was as if he were trying to get away from something or someone. I had never mentioned it because I was frightened to be there, however one day at the end of the shift I just happened to say ' basement ' and my boss and another Co worker shuddered. I don't know why I mentioned the running man in the basement but it was then that my boss said ' yeah and he's running to the back door '. I didn't know she had been aware of him. It was a relief of sorts to know I hadn't imagined it.
100% agree it's always something I've never heard of know very little about, I really enjoy a lot of the more historic paranormal stuff on this channel too
Sitting here on Halloween morning, watching Curious World. Great way to start my Samhain holiday! All of these stories very interesting. The one about the pilot in Australia I think is the one I like the best. Thanks for another upload, CW! Always great to see you.
My husband and I bought a house built in 1900. It was definitely “a fixer”. After our first walk around which we did on our own I turned to close the door and a big bang came from somewhere inside like a two by four fell or something. I went back and could not find any sign of anything that fell. We started working on the house right off and there was definitely something that was NOT happy. Mumbling, yelling, black shadows. I just talked to them kindly and included them, if they wished, to participate in joy and happiness. They came around and after 20 years living there they were upset again when we left.
Thank you for making such high quality content, particularly by speaking calmly and rationally and investigating the sources of these stories where possible. I just watched a program on here about 'Hidden London' and honestly it was so over the top and absurd it was embarrassing.
Curious World.. I always love your stories and always wait in anticipation of the next one !. This was great, well narrated, brilliant work. Thank-you...💙🎃
Imagine being rescued by the ghost of a pilot, except rather than "a guy in a rugged and stained uniform" there's a mangled and bloody corpse telling you "follow me north"
If the maid was entrusted with posting the letter and she assumed it was lost in the post, what was it doing hidden in the fireplace? Didn't she remember posting it?
I have some questions regarding the Anna Webb story. 1) why did the specter take the main staircase? Servants staircases were a thing in Victorian times, I’d think the ghost of a servant would take the servant’s stairs. 2) why was her haunting based in the cellars? If the source of her psychic stress was the letter in the room at the top of the house, why wasn’t it that room she was haunting? But the investigator stated that it was in the basement that he felt a presence. 3) how did the letter end up between the floorboards? If it was simply lost, one would think that Anna would have stated that it was lost, and sought help to find it. If it was deliberately hidden, why didn’t she say that she’d lost it and instigate a search for it when she was confronted about the missing letter, rather than committing suicide? My feeling is that there are too many elements in this story that seem more like they were chosen for dramatic impact rather than actual events.
Spot on with your questions, Anna. Elliott O'Donnell, who died in 1961, was best described as a professional romancer, a journalist who specialised in allegedly true ghost stories. This, and another story which has just surfaced on the 'Eerie Edinburgh' site are two of his tamer or milder ones! Usually they progressively pile horror upon incredulous horror until any attempts at veracity or believability die of exhaustion! He was an expert at it.
You ought to do one on ghost stories on Tremont St. In North Chattanooga Tn. I never believed in ghosts until I saw one there Just walking through the house looking so normal person I thought it was one of my son's friends, until he walked through a door that was closed. All of my neighbors had ghost stories, because Tremont had a rough history, I guess. Anyway, just saying.
You've gotta sadly be a lonely guy if when looking for a companion to stay the night at a haunted house, you end up taking someone else's dog. Even the dog wasn't that interested, where most dogs would follow a human around, this one left him to go lay down and nap on a separate floor hoping morning would come sooner then later
That dog was useless jumping into his lap in fear instead of protecting him He would've been better off bringing a cat with him to catch all those " scurrying insects " he heard 🙄 ( more likely rats and mice yuck !)
Love your uploads, your content and presentation is light years ahead of most other channels of a similar nature. I get a bit tired of listening to self opinionated melodramatic presenters, often all regurgitating the same darn material. Big thumbsies up! 👍💯
Another great series, but one question is that the distance from Perth to Fremantle is only 25km and the terrain is rolling green farmland, its on the coast. My guess is you maybe talking about somewhere like Roebourne or Port Hedland where Iron Ore strikes were made in the 50s and the Japanese tried to invade in 1942.
Excellent as always. Also begs the question of some people seeing apparitions, whilst others see nothing. Being mindful of how vision works at a neural and processing level, are we "really" seeing things, or are our brains interpreting information as best as they know how - information that may "appear" to be visual, but may in fact be via another more direct source (direct visual cortex interaction). There has been some work in this area, but it remains very much "fringe Medicine" for the majority of serious researchers., who wouldn't touch it with the proverbial barge-pole (which is a pity since there could be useful information available from a serious approach).
@@KatTheScribe In my Student days, many of us were interested in the supernatural, and we visited many of the supposedly haunted sites in the southern UK mainland (including the site of the former Borley Rectory) without seeing anything remotely out of this world. Decades later I was living in a leased property in Portland, Dorset (doing a locum for HMP Verne Medical Centre) and I very definitely and very clearly saw something, and looked at "it" for a good 15 seconds. Investigation revealed that it had been seen by many others, and from then onwards I have a far more open mind towards what others may have seen. As no doubt many others have said, "I know what I saw", and that is all that matters to me. If others wish to discount this information, then they are welcome to, but they were not there - I was.
@@CuriousWorldProductions My sole encounter with my "apparition" was well over 25 years ago now! Mind you the Isle of Portland is replete with ghostly tales, mainly centring around mariners lost at sea (hardly surprising there!). Dorset as a whole has more than a few ghostly stories, with HMP Dorchester being a "major player" in this area - hardly surprising since this was where Judge Jefferies had his Bloody Assizes - and there is a (now closed off) underground passage leading from the famous Tea Rooms to the Prison, where the condemned met their fates. The history of this area is pretty fantastic!
Yes I really really like this channel too, just wish he would upload more often but he may work full time somewhere & hasn't got alot of time. But, I for one, would rather have quality as opposed to quantity & lets face it, there's alot of crap channels churning out rubbish on a daily basis. Curious World has brought us some very choice subjects & his style is laid back, unruffled, clear & concise but not robotic It's odd that just 2 days ago I heard the 1st story from another Good non-fiction channel. It must be the high up admiralty ghost putting it out there for us Utubers or U- Toobles as I like to say
That's interesting, I'd never heard the story told on TH-cam before. Thanks for the kind words, too. I'd like to upload more, but with work (as you said) and family obligations, I just can't.
@@CuriousWorldProductions oh I fully understand you & I think many of us forget to mention the support the narrators receive from their partners, taking on both parental roles allowing the narrator the time not just narrating but the research involved. So it's 3 hurrahs for the partners behind The Voice! I can only think the 1st story generated the pushing forward of the tale as a few people were seeking info on this case at the same time. It's less than 48 hrs since I heard the story, of course it may have been a similar case, but the bit about people seeing the captain at his wife's dinner party at the very moment of his demise 100's of miles away on the high seas. Anywhoo stay safe kind sir, & don't worry bout us moaning minnies wanting more. They appreciate what you bring as its always quality.

Thank you. I think it's best to stay neutral with the stories. Unless you were there, you just don't know.
When ghosts show more humanity than 99.9% of humans.
I mean, they also were humans tho
@@Momo_Kawashima They may have learned a thing or two since their deaths
I rarely get the chills from these kinds of stories...
...Except when I hear the same experiences I've had being described.

Maybe she was delivering a whole bunch of letters and assumed that the letter with money was in it
And it wasn't in the fireplace. It was found under the floorboards near the fireplace.
