31:27 “if you let a man in there. . . some of them will do very vile things” that’s actually why female egyptian mummies are more decayed than male ones. that’s because the family would hold onto the body until it started to decompose so no one would be ‘tempted’ while she’s being embalmed. tale as old as time, unfortunately
jesus…
Yea, especially in India apparently, I remember reading a story where this very young girl was buried and the undertaker waited till night and dug out her corpse to have sex with
Oh my 😳… I didn’t know that. Respect for the Egyptians who made that change
Thousands of years later and we’re still being preyed on by gross men🫠
There are many obscure rituals found in texts from Ancient Egypt, hadn't thought of that one, theTransgendered Pharo was one whose whole family was desecrated and removed from history because they changed the gods that were worshiped, and a power struggle, and murders took place within the family. During Roman history as well some obscure beliefs, rituals such as Caligula, who would have been imprisoned today for sexual deviations..
women aren’t granted peace even with death and that’s so sick :(
I have recently learned that in Pakistan people need to lock up and have literal gates over women's graves, especially young ones, because of necrophilia.
That is beyond devastating.
I’ve read recently that a lot of coroners rape female corpses like ,,, it’s sick
Marilyn Monroe comes to mind. Just insane.
I saw a woman say, and it really affected me, that if she were ever the last woman on earth, she would kill herself by setting herself on fire or otherwise destroying her body so the male's couldn't defile her corpse.
Just horrible like stop
I broke down crying when I heard people will negotiate for a "body" while someone was ALIVE in the hospital fighting for their lives. I'm not quite sure why, but imagining that plus the vulnerable women kidnapped was just too much.
33:29 like Stephanie said that's part of their culture, so don't judge them for it.
39:39
@@Valchrist1313 Fuck that, I'll judge their damn culture if it's vile. You could say the same shit about someone with a culture that is okay with the rape of children and it would still be wrong and should be judged for it.
grow up
@@johnmatthews4717 You think youre cool or something?
@@kanalmimi just an adult. you?
Nah. If i died and then got sold to some dude to "take care of him" for eternity in the afterlife regardless of who he is, you could BET everyone involved would never have a day of peace from that moment on. Not if i can help it.
You wouldn't be able to do much, being dead and all.
@@Vulhalashe can be a bitch to him for all eternity in the afterlife 😆
Oh, a haunting I would go.
@@VulhalaYou know what haunting is right?
@@inflatedskunk7768 Yes. Not real.
the people egging her on are absolutely disgusting.
It probably happens more than we all realise as well too. I can't believe people like that exist.
Yes, They literally helped someone who wanted to lose their life.
Maybe they were jealous or something, but that was way, way, way too far. What the fuck.
there was a case about a Japanese child called Roro chan who did a suicide on stream, jumping from her apartment. She jumped with her camera so you can even see the moment she hits the ground. What's disgusting is that there's someone that encourages her to jump, as doing so will "make her a legend". Her stream was removed- however a gif of the moment she jumped was still available in the internet for some reason. there's even a song about this incident
thats the crazy thing about the internet. behind a screen, anybody could say anything without suffering any consequences
@@skittles1975 Yes, and this is a prime example for how very very wrong this can go, with real consequences.
I feel so bad for her, and it doesn't matter how pretty or how rich she was or whatever. She was a young woman who deserved to live longer than that☹️
It’s horrifying to think that there may be other women who were buried alive that we don’t know about.
That’s what I was thinking 😰
.. Holy shit
I thought the same thing…how many woke too late and were never heard 😩
😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😅😊😊😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮
Yeah I felt really sad for how that poor woman was abused and thought of all the others and what you just said .
I stopped listening at 29:23 ... just too depressing and sickening I didn't want to hear anything more .
My heart breaks for all the vulnerable young women who were sold and violated. Poor Mei, she deserved so much better than this. 🥺
Nice to see that woman have once again no rights
Na poor guys she got everything she wanted
Has society always been this cruel and depraved or has social media brought everything out in the open? Also Cyber bullying is an evil, evil thing.
It’s a crime punishable by imprisonment. A teen committed suicide in my town and the girls that were encouraging her to jump on her Snapchat live were sentenced to life in prison last I knew. The over all court on the day may have different levels for each girl but they all went to jail.
Always have been
I mean historically we're known to throw people in arenas and watch them fight to death for fun, so pretty sure we've always been cruel and fucked up, social media just created new ways.
@@marilou5285 I'm not going to steal from Jordan Peterson so giving credit him to quoting him. " Men settle conflict by violence and fist fights. Women on the other hand by gossip and destroying a good name and reputation. " the latter is far worse.
Humanity and human beings have always been evil. We like to deny but social media just brings that out in the open more clearly.
From a Chinese who followed this case since her livestream-You got the facts all right. Good job and thank you for telling her story. May she rest in peace.
I'm with Chinese heritage, never heard of ghost marriage. My uncle died after university. He was about to get married... my aunt also died when she was 2 yrs old due to high fever. It's crazy why people believe in ghost marriage. Do you want to marry the 2 and 3 years old? In fact, mum to me a fortune teller was invited to my grand parents house to tell fortune etc. he told my uncle there is a little girl that is with you. She loves you and brings you good luck. He then realised it's his older sister. So maybe kids just just remains kids.... I'm a Christian so I don't know how it all works?? Maybe Christians goes to heaven and the rest ... may be get another form of life in another world?
Anyway, he then said there's another younger man in this house. Not sure if he mentioned about an old man. That would be my grandad but he's a Christian. I better check with mum to see if grandad is still around.
@@steph4922 literally what’s the purpose of this story…
@@drewyfazbear , what I mean is my dad's sister died when she was 2 years old. So she's my aunt in that sense
@@tylerjeremiah7149 , I'm not making a story, Just stating my family's experience of death.
@@steph4922 ohh
A womans body is worth more sometimes even in death :((
The sick and gross reality we live in. Prayers to all the victims.
Sadly 😔 i have to agree 😢 with you people are heartless wether it's a woman,children, and even babies there is a lot of hate in this world 😢
*disabled womens
Women can’t have peace even when we’re dead it’s atrocious! I saw an article state in Pakistan some places properly lock graves to protect them from being raped even when their dead
Also reading how funeral homes prefer female morticians cause a huge number of male mortician violating bodies….. it’s frightening
the black market selling of dead bodies and human traficking are a much, much bigger reality than anyone ever wants to think about. It's so bad that the nations of Belarus, Austria, the Uninted States, Canada, German, Switzerland, Japan, Singapore, Australia, and several others, including a handful in the Middle East and Africa all have task forces within their police that are specifically there to help combat human trafficking. Another sad fact is that the majority of human trafficking and black market dealings go through military bases, at least here in the U.S.. It is incredibly upsetting.
Unfortunately true think of Marilyn Monroe 😢
Just finished the video and I feel the original story was forgotten when it transitioned into the ghost marriage thing. Would be nice to hear some more about the streamer and the aftermath. Truly saddened to hear about her suffering.
Her body was stolen to be a ghost bride for someone. That’s only conclusion I can come up with since it’s included in all the rest of the stories. So this video is about stealing brides for ghost marriages. She was one of them presumably
Yes! I was so confused, waiting for her to come back to the original story! This should have been two different videos.
I was listening to this while walking our dogs and I legit thought the video had switched to a completely different story while my phone was in my pocket. It wasn't until I got home that I looked and realised it was the same video.
I’m happy to see I was not the only one finding this completely incoherent. She’s usually having a main story with some small related stories throughout. In this one it was like the title story was forgotten. Oh well, it was interesting nonetheless.
This is her style tho so I’m sure if u don’t like all the unnecessary details and backstory, you can find other true crime storytellers to listen to 👍🏽
Stephanie is such a good storyteller, I'm binge watching her videos
I can tell you, I discovered her 3 days ago and I've been doing the same nonstop.
Like, I'm certain that even if she was rumbling about random stuff, I could listen to her for hours and not get tired.
Such an amazing talent.
In the South Korean series "Hotel DeLuna" they explained a common and controversial tradition that involves marrying off your dead child to another person's dead child. It was their way of making sure they wouldn't be alone in the afterlife. It's controversial due to the lack of consent.
I love Hotel Del Luna 🙁😋
That's sad, cute, and creepy all at once :(
I'm Korean. It's not at all common.
It's actually a Chinese old tradition as in OLD.
@@lorettaevans3242 they’re just saying that in a k drama they mentioned this. they did say that it was a tradition in the comment!
Sex offenders and human traffickers are no longer human and should be treated as such. It’s a shame that guy got to live.
I couldn't agree more.
They’re humans that have betrayed the species. Just like drug dealers who essentially turn people into zombies, they’ve made the decision to destroy lives for personal gain.
𝙰𝚐𝚛𝚎𝚎𝚍 !!
Meat eaters are also inhuman. Pigs and cows are raped by humans when being raised but who’s gonna tell the tale of the mute?
People care about sex offender and human traffickers human rights more than their victims.
It's horrible how one little rumor can spread into something so messed up, how so many people have nothing to do with their lives than to shit on someone who they don't even know personally. I felt so bad for Kitty, she did nothing to deserve any of the things that happened to her, I want her to rest in peace, and I hope that she's doing fine, wherever she is now.
It's shocking how a little lie can control a person's life. I remember in high school how easily rumors could get out of hand. People could loose friendships over something that never existed. boys would claim they s** a girl to gain manhood points. fat girls would be accused for being pregnant. The youth minister's daughter of my church started a rumor about me because she wanted 10min of fame. Luckily I had photos and 1 video to prove to everyone she was lieing. She was very embarrassed.
Haha word nerd!
the fact that the people on her stream told her to drink it instead of trying to convince her not. its just messed up and what happened after is even more heartbreaking. i wish she was still here but i kno shes in a better place rest in peace and perfection
Poor Little Kitty. :( I hope she is resting well in the afterlife. Being an influencer and trying to spread happiness while dealing with so many struggles... We all have to be nicer to each other.
It's always the ones who tries to be a star to other people. They are struggling themselves so their act of love to others is trying to be the light that they need themselves in their lives. 🤍
she reminded me of moonbin..🦋
he seemed like an any worry free and full of life person who had many many many lookin forward things to live for. seemed like he could outfly any difficulty..
😿 cant even guess how much such people suffered. its on another level
i forgot that part I thought it was about ghost marriage
@@annejia5382his caused of passing is believed to be illness, the officials said that there are no signs of su*c*de or murder. pls do not spread any misinformation regarding his passing, it will cause a tremendous amount of grief to others who knew personally.
@@jennkkmm of course im sorry, i didnt mean to.
little kitty just reminded me of moonbin. both young, charismatic, super talented and successful yet they are gone..
she doesnt say "thats just what i want to show you guys" she says "i want everyone that watches my videos to be happy, feel happy, also to see that i am happy" this is so heartbreaking
and "thank you guys for accompanying me for so long, thank you"
As someone who has struggled with depression for years and having dealt with a lot of trauma, I have delved into some pretty dark places, even so far as attempting my own life twice. I knew right away when you mentioned the dark liquid exactly what it was, and it brought back so many terrible memories for me.
I know how difficult it can be to find a reason to continue when it seems like there is nothing worth staying for, but there is always something, no matter how mundane. You deserve to be happy and experience wonderful things, and it is hard as hell, I know from experience, but it's worth it to fight.
❤
Found this channel in my suggestions and I'm enjoying it so much. The host tells the stories with intelligence, Grace and compassion. Great find!
If you like female true crime TH-camrs you should watch boze vs the world!
U boring
I’m a true crime-aholic who just recently came across Rotten Mango. So far, every episode I’ve watched has been a story I’ve never heard about. Thank you Stephanie (and mystery man off camera) for putting in the hard work of researching the obscure and/or foreign crimes that as an American I would have otherwise not heard of or fully understood…because so much is lost in translation. And thank you to those who make respectful comments on here to give further insight or to clarify details.
The mystery man is her fiancé 😊
Agreed!
Junko???
Same
Such a sweet comment ❤ thanks girl
we love it when stephanie brings attention to foreign cases!!!!!
This is also why I love this channel. The world is huge and full of people. These stories deserve to be shared and heard.
This is why love her channel and I never knew about this ❤
east asian cases*
Basically only popular Asian country cases, never others
Especially from Asia that's why I'm subbed ❤
There's a movie in the Philippines called Ghost Bride, it's about a girl who struggles with her family debt. One day she receives an unusual business proposal and it's being a ghost bride. When I first watched it I was fascinated by it, I didn't know China has that kind of tradition/culture.
Theres a book as well by yangsze choo with a similar plot
I just found you. You are such a good story teller. Honesty, factual, emotional and entertaining. It's refreshing
As someone who has been harassed by a man I rejected in the past, a bitter person will always act like they are the victim when in fact they are the ones who are toxic.
So true, they act like their feelings are your own fault and that you're bad for not appeasing those emotions…
Very common of Malignant Narcissistic Disorder.
@@islanderbyrd1881 also very common with borderline personality disorder which is often comorbid with narcissism.
So true, it's called a woman scorn for a reason and I'm glad I survived it.
Faaaacts
God the girl who couldn't speak absolutely broke my heart. I can't imagine how terrifying it would be to endure so much and not be able to talk about it
Timestamp
She couldn't hear as well. A deaf mute. And yeah it's sick.
@@stevethea5250 24:55
Around @23:00
Whats that?
the way you tell the cases - it's a story. not only facts but emotions, details, like having a sit down with a friend that always has the craziest stories. it brings such a different angle to true crime/real life horror genre. been binge watching you last couple nights, probably need to find more lighthearted stories from you ahah!
Love your voice and the way you tell the stories, with so much passion so much emotion. I am totally glued and wait for your new videos
I saw a quote once that said “Tradition is just peer pressure from dead people.”
While keeping an open mind to cultures outside your own is important, I think this quote is also good to keep in mind when deciding when to tolerate or when to speak out against things for the sake of “respecting” culture.
WoW. Thts a good one and something to think abt.
Damn, interesting perspective. Never thought of it like that before.
I think too, they'll keep tradition for religious reasons, hoping it pleases God.
Bet whoever originated that quote was a marxist. And whaddayaknow, quoted in two books by marxists authors . Original quote attributed to "unknown."
Amen!!! “Tradition! Keep tradition!” Everywhere from all these dead practices. Let the dead bury the dead
Obviously, there are good traditions and there are bad ones. I pity the fool that lumps them all into the same basket.
It's horrific how every now and then I find another thing that makes more scary to be a woman in this world, my heart goes to all the victims.
Meanwhile on social media you have all these girls who wanna desperately show their tits for attention and clout... yes its so scary indeed.
Put men in rice
@@sabsain2399 not even the place for jokes..there nun funny bout this n how scary the world is for women...

I wish I could hug her. 😢 I have recently started watching you. Ty for putting out good and positive msgs and information that could help someone in a similar situation. Side note, you are one of my favs now
Stephanie where do you get all these stories from??!! But i think it's amazing how you tell stories and make people aware of these horrible crimes. Condolences to all the victims.🕊❤️
Your storytelling is absolutely phenomenal. They way you deliver facts and set up a scene and show so much compassion for these poor victims. Seriously love your channel.
I agree
Agree. Her story telling is fire 🔥 but her voice is cringe. Super cringe.
Romans 10:9 = eternal life_+++

i agree!
The first & ONLY true crime channel that ive ever actually enjoyed!!❤ usually my anxiety & ptsd make it impossible but somehow this channel is more comforting & feels more respectful to the victims
As a Chinese, thank you so much for explaining so much about the cultural and historical reasons why something is done. I really appreciate the respect and thoughtfulness! Thanks Stephanie!
As a Chinese person, thank you. Not as a chinese. Bad English. I can help you. Keep in touch.
@@stigNothing wrong with that english, stop being language police. Its not your job.
@@stig Chinese is used the same as the word "American." You can say "as an American" and you are not required to say "as an American person." So, obviously you can say "as a Chinese."
@@bixie0987No.
@@bixie0987their English isn’t “bad” as it’s comprehensible, but in terms of correctness, “a Chinese” is not correct. American is an adjective AND a noun. Chinese is only an adjective. You can say “that’s an American” (noun) or “I’m American” (adjective) but you can’t say “I am a Chinese” as it’s not a noun.
As a chinese who has been very concerned since I saw her livestrea, I'm glad I found you bcause you stated some facts I never knew. Thank you so much for spreading awareness.
May Little Kitty rest in peace and she will be missed.
First I wanted to clarify that the most important take away I had from this video was the stories of the victims and I never want to downplay that. That being said, your outfits are always so well thought-out and put together!!
the story about marrying off the two dead people is so disturbing and disrespectful. they disrespected her body for a random man. it’s insanely disgusting. they did all of that so he can be “happy in the afterlife.” no care for her at all. no respect towards body or her wishes. gross af.
Being so entitled to use Woman for such a morbide Deed. Respectless to the Dead. Hope she hunts them for a while, then finding peace.
Only men would think of something like this.
you only focus that "HE can be "happy in the afterlife"", it goes both ways, how do you know SHE isn't happy and have someone WHILE HE isn't happy?
This is done in Chinese tradition so the parents from BOTH are relief that their son or daughter have someone to take care of each other.
Asian parents want to see their kids (both male and female) married in life and in death.
With that said, I do not agree on selling the deceased.
Actually, in traditional Chinese belief, single women are the angriest ghosts. Marrying them off is seen as being beneficial to both families and both ghosts, but especially the single woman.
@@bingbingbaobeiStudies actually show that the happiest and healthiest Women are single or in a relationship with another women. While studies also show single Men are lonely, depressed and often catch porn addiction. If someone did that sht with my corpse I will come back and haunt their entire bloodline.
My mum is a neonatologist (doctor for newborn babies with problems) and she once was looking after this new born Chinese girl who had down syndrome. I don't remember the details, but I remember her telling me that one of the assistants, who was Chinese, told them not to send the baby back to her family, because it was likely that the grandmother would drown her.
EDIT:
checked with my mum; so the parents were very young, and didn't want the baby, so they were going to send her to their parents (her grandmother). The Chinese ambassador there was strongly against it because she thought the grandmother would drown the little girl. The baby ended up going to a foster home, my mum said that if they couldn't find anyone she would have adopted her and my dad agreed.
How to deal with a situational dillema like that? Yeah, it's possible that this could be a practice and there's historical context behind it, but how prove this will happen? There's so many repercussions that'll happen for not giving the baby to the family when there's no "legitimate" reason. It's something that hasn't happened yet, we just think it'll happen due to assuming. Especially hard for families that have no DV or CPS records because of the hush-hush culture.
I don’t see why the girl would be in danger in the UK/aus? I’m assuming you’re in the UK or Australia and that this happened there due to the use of “mum” but please correct me if I’m wrong. But yeah I don’t see why they’d harm the girl if they’re in a country without the one child policy
Oof. It’s not fair to judge with our povs, because these kind of things happen because people know these children don’t have easy lives, and it’s kind of like a dog mom eating her weakest puppies to save the stronger ones. A "small evil for the greater good". And these practices are more common in very poor and third world countries where life truly is hard and weakness equals death. We are only able to see how horrible it is because we have extremely privileged lives where situations like that could never happen here. At least not for the same reasons. That’s why education is very important. People shouldn’t be blamed because of their ignorance, they should be taught.
Holy shit hopefully that kid is okay
@@elliewolfe9197 Some of the older generations still hold old beliefs and assume that they apply to all countries or that the laws are stupid and don’t actually have to abide to them and since they are older they will be let off. No one really thinks they will have to drown a child with Down syndrome or if it’s legal or not. There’s a story of a brother who went on a mission to find his sister after she was sold off, I believe Reddit helped him find her. That was all planned by his father and his grandmother, who hated the girl. I don’t really remember what race or ethnicity they were but selling girls off to marriage was normal. In the end both the father and grandmother were arrested. The brother and sister left the family and cut off contact.
I'm so glad I discovered your channel! In a sea of so many True Crime creators, there aren't many good ones these days but I love your Channel❤
That was an extremely quick 1 hour!! Thank you for making this video, it was so interesting to learn about these cases :)
Marrying off your dead son to a dead girl you managed to get your disgusting hands on is beyond disturbing. This is one of the worst example of people's superstitious beliefs making them commit horrific crimes.
Here's a crazy idea: just grieve and move on. No amount of shotgun death weddings will change anything/ bring people back.
"Shotgun death wedding"... that's wild. I'm keeping that.
@@FacemeltsWasteland 😁😅
It’s a cultural difference, it’s not rly a way to cope it’s trying to get their son someone to live in the afterlife but anyways still very weird and creepy
This is entire thing is disturbing and even dumb, but you know what's even crazier than your crazier idea? You don't just grief and move on, if it's that easy people won't be having PTSD and mental illnesses, in fact maybe these spiritual weddings are their way to grief and get closure.
Even animals are known to grief for their dead, which means this is something that has been coded into animal DNA for millions of years. And it's not the families of the dead at fault, it's those who exploit their beliefs and commit crime for money that's at fault.
@@ksng767 well said!
I've been living in China for almost 8 years I always felt welcome and always thought people here is very nice, all until started to live stream in douyin, people in douyin live streams are the worst, the kind of comment they do, they just plain insult you and say really mean things just for fun. Its very sad because most of the streamers who recive the most hate are young girls, and most of the viewers are all men. I streamed for 4 months and never felt so bad about myself in my own life, and i'm old. I feel very sad for these girls.
As in many places, anonymity behind a screen gives them not only a false sense of bravery to be nasty in a way they know they'd get hurt for doing face-to-face, but also seems to make some people forget that the person they're speaking to is a real person and not a cartoon character.
@@prettyevil6662000 people will say things online they would never say in real life. This fills me with both hope and disgust.
Sorry you had to go through that with those callous heartless asshole trolls. But there is one remedy to this issue,get off the internet. Seems drastic? yes, but at the end of the day, your mental wellbeing should always come first.
Under-endowed men hate women.
@@prettyevil6662000 This makes me worry about how people - mainly men - really are. If just by being anonymous and being given some freedom this is how you act and "really" are, does that mean everyone is just hiding being monsters? Is that why every sci fi apolcolypse movie has almost every guy turn into a r*pist as soon as they see a woman just because they dont "get it" often? The only thing making men behave a bit more in reality are laws and social systems when it goes against their nature? It's really scary to think of, espeically when you look at less regulated areas like during war or in poorer places.
i love stephanie,she talks and explains thing perfectly and w respect,plus you can learn not only about the case but about things involved in it that are so random that i would never know about them unless i listen to this podcast ❤
I love your story telling! You are so respectful and engaging! Love the mangoes ❤❤
It's just so sad that women are just seen as that. Brides that should take care of men, that should serve them. It's so sad that even in death, that's what they see us for. It's also really maddening to learn that women who people see as "less valuable" should be treated and sold like that. Sure, times are changing but it's still a long way to go. Hope the victims rest in peace, on their own. I hope they are happy in the afterlife and not become some man's caregiver. 🕊️
there is a manhwa called Her Tale of Shim Cheong that revolves around that premise exactly. it's really maddening 😢 i didn't expect the manhwa to touch so deeply on this topic because of how it looks, but it really touches the soul.
@@wsphh2692 Just for your information, if you'd like to look into it, the manhwa is based on a traditional Korean folk tale. I don't exactly know how the manhwa treats the story, but originally it is kinda supposed to be a sweet one
@Maps rights are valid no. throughout history women have been victims of extreme misogyny and oppression by men. Men were the ones who held the power.
@Maps rights are valid I see and understand your point, reading back at my comment it does seem that way, but I said it in connection with the topic in the video. With regards to the custom/tradition about women being ghost brides. Not saying that it can't happen to men, but in this case, this happens more to women.
@@thisstuffisminenotyours yes it gives information on the original tale at the beginning. i looked into it while i was reading the manhwa to see how the author took bits of it and weaved it into their story. i think its a very interesting take on the folk tale because it really makes you despise most of the characters, even the father. it is not sweet in the same way as the original, but sweet in another. however, it doesn't disrespect the original either.
As someone with depression, its so hard sometimes. Its so sad she ended it all. I hope she feels better in the next life.
There is no next life. When people die they are in the ground until judgment day.
My dear I believe in God... I know that is quite scandalous these days lol however I truly believe that those who suffer such sadness on earth are rewarded with pure joy and peace in the hereafter 🙏❤️🙏
No matter what you believe this poor sweet soul is now at peace... but please KNOW this... this life here and now is so precious... try to live every moment to its fullest. I will pray for you tonight for God to relieve you of your pain and give you peace 🕊️😇🙏
Depressed about what? Sorry but I don't understand this whole depression crap. You probably have a good life compared to others. It's a selfish way to live your life, and a cop out so you have an excuse for the way you act and treat others
Stop the bullshit, grow up and quit making excuses, sorry but that's just the truth
There's no next life and when people die they don't stay on earth as ghosts. We all die and soon stand before God our Creator, Jesus Christ, for JUDGEMENT and you go immediately to hell or with Jesus if you accepted and followed Jesus while alive. So search for Jesus Christ, repent of your sins and follow him. There are no next lives and you won't become a ghost.

The people who encouraged Little Kitty to take her own life are absolutely revolting, grotesque excuses for human beings. I wish that cyber harassment and bullying was taken far more seriously than it is, so many people have lost their lives to it or been driven to self harm and when you add onto what happened to her remains and the other victims, it just makes it worse. I feel so horrible for Little Kitty. She and the others deserved better than how they were treated.
You will help so many with your posts. Please take care and stay safe. I appreciate your courage and strength !
As someone with a disability I’m always on edge with new people, I will give you the dirtiest look of distrust possible. I remember I was in Walmart (this place is literally known for attracting weird people) with my grandma and I noticed immediately a man was following us, maybe not us but me because he thought I was an easy target. I told her that he was following us and we needed to report him and she was like nahhhhh. Anyone we looped back and forth through aisles and he still followed! Eventually I think he picked up that we were onto him. I still think he was a trafficker and I have not gone to Walmart by myself since then. Always pay attention to your surroundings and just because someone is nice doesn’t mean you have to be.
That happened recently at a Ross near me. Though I think the girl was kidnapped or there was an attempt, I don't remember the details. Crazy.
@RedRoseSeptember22 some people in this world are crazy, im even finding out family members cant be trusted. I really hope she didn't get kidnapped, that would be awful.
"Just because someone is nice doesn't mean you have to be" AMEN and wise words well taken to heart. Being "mean" will at worse give the other person an unpleasant moment in their day (if it's truly a mistake), and at best could save your life. It's not a problem to be mean when you feel in danger or uncomfortable.
I never got to Walmart without another person. Watch your back while loading the car.
Why would a trafficker want someone disabled? And, why would they walk around Walmart with all the cameras and security? Doesn't make sense.
I am an adopted chinese girl from china who was born in 2001, and my family kept in contact with 8 families from the orphanage and we are all girls and the same age. Also I was found in a box across the street from a police station the next day after I was born with my birthday month ripped out and birthday circled with a name which means "double" I believe so I feel like I was a twin or a second child and they decided to keep the other one lol. This vid reminded me of that and how it was so common for people to get rid of the girls and want boys, as well as the single child law was in effect. Makes me feel a little better and that it wasn't my fault for being given up which doesn't make sense but still.
How wonderful, that your family kept in contact with the other families. Then you have some kind of roots with your past and culture. I hope your family has been good to you. I adopted two kids so I know the feelings it can create. Good luck to you.
Do you think they did that thing where they had the other baby in one hand and you in the other and they "weighed" you two to decide which one to keep?
Maybe the other child was a boy? But if your family kept contact, could one of the other people know that info? You are now 22 years old. Have you come to terms with your adoption?
I am so glad you were chosen by a family who would love you and take care of you. I am sorry that you were disposed of in such a heartless way as a baby, but it seems God had better plans for you❤
There is no reason under this sun that would make it your fault. Your birth mother cared enough to leave you somewhere safe, with information about you that you would never know otherwise, it feels to me that your birth mother loved you so much she wanted a life for you that she knew she could not give you. I'm so sorry that you are dealing with the unknowns but please know you are and will always be good enough ❤️
No one thought to call the police beforehand?! Smh 🤦🏾♀️
THAT IS SO SO SAD 😢!
I'm sorry I know I'm not supposed to laugh but literally when she goes "meow get me out b*tch" I freaking hollered
The thing about women being thrown into her husband coffin is true. In Nepal it is called "Sati Pratha". In this tradition, when a husband dies his wife has to be cremated with her dead husband. If wife dies before, husband can marry younger child and live their life happily. It was ended by King Chandra Shamsher in 1920 AD. There is a Nepali movie called "Jhola" about this tradition. I would recommend watching it but make sure to keep some tissue because it's extremely emotional.
Most horrendous thing I’ve ever heard
Wow. And we call this civilization....
WTF I like this channel to get perspective about other people's struggles. But this is so sad and tough. I'm not a true crime person I just stuck it out because I never see stories from a Asian perspective. It's tough all over.
In Ancient Egypt, when the Pharaoh died, all his servants were also interred with him in his tomb, to serve him in the afterlife.
This is such a sad reality, the fact that even though she was dead they still used her money for profit. Thank you so much for bringing light to this case and working so hard to make content on cases that in return spread awareness. :(
Just because you asked, "what are your thoughts on ghost marriages."
It's disgusting. N it's not a marriage anyway, the dead can't marry.
This is honestly so sad… people who take advantage of people who vulnerable physically or mentally…. 💔💔💔
I feel so bad for Little Kitty, I honestly can't imagine how anyone could ever hurt a sweet soul like that. I don't really know her but she sounds like such a beautiful and amazing person. It's so scary how the beautiful world we are living in is filled with disgusting people.
I like how you went from little kitty to giving us a whole history lesson on culture. this is why I love your podcast
As a west asian I’m so much obsessed with these east asian stories,movies,series ,you are such a smart natural storyteller Stephanie,we love you ,your brother,your husband and Tiffany to the moon and back❤
Where’s Western Asia? Like Central Asia?
I really greatly appreciate Stephanie for the disclaimers on Asian culture. As an Asian myself, even though these particular customs are not a part of our country's culture, I could imagine how people from other parts of the world could misconstrue some Asian customs to be a bit backwards. I've never felt this feeling before, but the phrase "representation matters" was overwhelmingly running through my mind and in my heart. Thank you Stephanie, I appreciate that your delivery is not bystander-y, while at the same time giving emphasis on how the people involved in all the cases you cover are not a representation of the rest of the population.
I've never heard of Ghost marriges before but it's horrifying to say the least... To think that some people could profit of someone else's grief, and kill innocent women, using their bodies as just merchandise. I was so sad and angry with Lee's story It made me cry.
if there's demand... Someone needs to supply...
If men demands, women supplies.
i think the ghost marriages were harmless until people decided to supply the market with live women. i imagine parents just didn't want their sons and daughters to be lonely in the afterlife and hoped to find them a person they might fall in love with.
and then assholes decided it'd be fun to commit murder and bury people alive
@@lscherehazade_317I hate how people think like 5hat
Burying people alive along side with death people, that's a practice for thousands of years until they replaced it with clay models.
However, the reality is that practice still carry on but in secret.
I feel so bad for her, she deserved better and none of these people feel bad or will ever be held accountable.
Shut up... if you're putting yourself out there then you deserve what you get.
They’re probably miserable people with burner accounts and the thought ppl would say such callous things.
welcome to china! or basiacally any asian country.
There is something deeply disturbing going on with mehn's minds. I was reading comments on a TH-cam video about a necrophiliac in the UK who murdered several women in order to assault their bodies. There were a TON of mehn in the comments DEFENDING necrophilia, claiming that it wasn't a real crime, that we should accept it as an orientation, and/or that somehow mehn partaking in combat/war made assault of women's dead bodies a non-crime or non-issue. I suspect a few defenders of necrophilia were ex-soldiers who likely repped female's bodies in combat zones. I wish I was joking. There is no kind of torture of females that males will not engage in. Internet prawn normalizes torture and dehumanization of females, and many of them think of SA as a normal thing that should be fully legalized, if not encouraged.
The sexism is STRONG in this comment🤦🏻♀️
There's some really toxic people online, trolls and keyboard warriors. If you can't handle bullying then it's best to stay off of the public social space of the internet, people can be really mean and disgusting especially behind a screen where their identity is protected for the most part. Thank you for explaining this case to us.
For some odd reason people love to hate & people love drama, involving themselves in drama even when they say they don't, they actually do.
Thank you for respecting as well.
Blocks, mutes and so on are there for a reason. Give bullies their space.
You cant block hundreds or thousands of haters. @@peagames2002
i’ve been OBSESSED with your channel recently! i usually try to avoid true crime videos because i don’t like the idea of being desensitized to these stories. STEPH IS THE EXCEPTION! she always tells these stories with so much detail, emotion, and ALWAYS includes so much information about the VICTIM. i find it really important that we remember and understand the victim(s) story rather than the perpetrator. keep up the binge worthy content steph! this is what keeps me going as i have to start adjusting from highschool to college… 😭❤️
good luck in college
EXACTLY BROOOOO like i don’t wanna treat true crime like entertainment or something
I love how respectful you're towards other cultures.
Some things deserved to be judged as bad. It doesn't make the whole culture bad though, just that thing.
Except white culture, lmao.
@@epic7224 Of course. But people with influence have a social responsibility to be as careful as possible when discussing other cultures. More than once have a seen a TH-camr carelessly speak out against a particular cultural practice, only for their audience to absolutely jump on it and take it as an invitation to be racist and xenophobic in the comments section, and then the TH-camr having to go and tell them to stop and/or delete those comments...
I love how you story tell. I feel like im sitting on the couch just eating popcorn and sipping a beverage.
I am devastated that she could not get the help that she needed and ended her life. It does not matter which culture it happens in. Having a public status comes with pros and cons. One needs to be so grounded in order to cope with a public negative response. RIP Little Kitty.
2021, a well-known live streamer named "Little Kitty" took her life on camera, sparking public outrage against cyberbullying. The story made national headlines and dominated social media feeds for weeks.
Yet just when people thought they had heard it all, the case took an even stranger turn. It was later revealed that three men had stolen Little Kitty's remains, all in the hopes of marrying her ghost.
And as chilling as this tale might be, it's only the tip of the iceberg when it comes to the gruesome underworld of human trafficking involving dead bodies.
Oh my goodness 😮 the body's already gone. Oh my goodness
"But inventory ran out" CHILLS. Chills down my spine. Absolutely amazing phrasing that sent so many chills down my spine perfectly worded
i would feel bad for them, like if they could see themselves as ghosts and stuff and now they are bound to someone that they "should" get along with and possibly wont, and the fact some people literally got murdered for that reason is even worse. : (
This is so good Stephanie. I love how you brought the story back around. I think the Hua (apology if wrong) legend is alike to the Egyptian and before them, the Annunaki. 💞✌🏻
My mom used to warn my sister and I ALL THE TIME about not picking up random money we see on the streets. I don’t think she said we would be ghost married but she did say we would be cursed by whoever placed it there. I guess she just assumed we would say no to ghost marriage anyway.
I'm chinese and while these are all very disturbing I have a cool story about death marriage. My mom once told me that a friend of hers had a daughter that passed. One day, the daughter appeared in her parent's dream and told them " hey mom and dad, I met someone in the afterlife and we are in love. Can you guys please find him and give us a wedding ceremony?" Idk how, either she gave them his details or they posted it online or something, but eventually they found another set of parents who recently lost their son and also had a dream one night of their son telling them that he met a girl and wanted to marry her. The two parents got tgt and gave them a wedding ceremony. The end.
I feel like it's true because my mom has no incentive to tell lies like this and I just thought its a cool story
Edit, they did no re dig the bodies or do anything illegal, they just had a ceremony with either photos or ashes.
That's really interesting. I've never heard of ghost marriages before, but it intrigues me because I am a member of the church of Jesus Christ of latter day saints and we perform proxy ordinances for the dead like baptism. This practice sounds like a correlation to our belief that "what is bound on earth will be bound in heaven". I believe that there are core beliefs in every culture around the world about the spirit and these are truths God spoke to our ancients and the core beliefs have endured.
It's an old custom and usually they'll proxy with a hen or rooster (depending on the gender of the departed). There were also instances (extremely uncommon in the modern age in most countries) where one party is still alive (usually the bf/ gf).
That's so heartwarming, the fact that the families had similar experiences and found eachother
I feel like at least here there is somewhat consent??? it's so weird cause you gotta have to believe the parents. XD
@@teodorasavoiu4664 it's not heartwarming...it is disgusting both families have no respect for the dead, their loved ones
I've never imagine this possibility, what a complex theme. i think you explained in a very good way.
This really have kept me thinking if this being practice in my own country.
Hello from Cheyenne Wyoming, so glad I found your channel!!!!! LOVE LOVE great work
Poor Little Kitty. She was so beautiful and seems like such a trusting person. It is so sad that she thought that was the answer. I hope you are at peace now, sweetie. I’m so sorry all of these evil things happened to you. 😢💔🌹
Don't assume things
@@michaelzero5278???? They said seems. No assumption there. Stop assuming :)
The girl got herself some poison and started drinking it on a life stream, not caring that her main audience is probably teenagers. She kept saying it's Cola, yet she expected her boyfriend to recognise it's not and come save her. Why would he recognise her life is in danger, if she had never threatened to end it before. So I think, if nothing else, she did use suicide as a manipulation tactic.
@@Jabberwocky869She was diagnosed with depression…she wasn’t using suicide as a manipulation tactic she (very obviously) actually was suicidal.
@@tenisawhite4660 i mean, threatening people youre gonna kill yourself is a manipulation tactic, doesn't matter if youre depressed or not.
This one was actually really kind of traumatizing to listen to. I can't believe people can be so cruel. I know what it's like to struggle but I'd never do something do heinous and it's very difficult to even try to comprehend those that do.
I’m with you. I’m appalled at Zeek and social media treated Hello Kitty. Unfortunately there are a lot of low class people. Lee? I just got to that part! I’m horrified.
i would like to buy lots of shit- i think id look super hot in a maserati w butterfly doors and id love lots of disgustingly expensive jewlrey- , but i dont want it if i have to bury someone alive to buy it ------wtf is wrong w people!
I'd be so pissed enjoying my afterlife then here come some man ruining my peace.
“Meow get me out bitch”
That made me laugh to an embarrassing extent.
I’d like to thank Ask A Mortician for making a video that explained the marrying off the dead thing, I legit predicted the twist in this case from the first 10 minutes.
Side note: why is Stephanie’s outfits always so cute!
I also knew it because of Caitlin
Me too, i love Ask A Mortician
Yes, same here. I was like "Wait a sec, that spunds familiar, horrifyingly so.."
Definitely saw that on Ask A Mortician.
I like ask a mortician but that is most uncute mismatched outfit I’ve seen so far today. She’s seems like a lovely girl and tells a great story but whoever dressed her today needs to give their head a wobble
@@Devils-advocate78 She looks really cute maybe it is just not your style also am pretty sure she dresses herself
about ghost marriages. it reminded me of this one case that I've heard about a grave robber (some may speculate a serial killer) who would steal corpses of people in cemeteries and put them in these human sized doll things and display them in his home. Allegedly, when he was a kid, someone had forced him to marry this dead little girl (I don't remember the exact age but I think he was around 10 years old at this time and the dead girl was around his age I think). The people officiating this ceremony apparently forced him to kiss this dead girl after they got "married" and he claims that since then, she's been haunting him. Theoretically, this could've been the catalyst to his unhealthy relationship with the dead. MAYBE. but it was messed up fr.
He thought that by doing what he did, those girls that died too soon, were having a good "life", with good food, clothes etc that they didn't get as a child. The parents didn't even get mad with him after everything was clarified.
Ah I heard of him! To this day, I wonder how his parents didn't notice anything strange or sinister about those "dolls" laying around their house. They didn't even look like dolls. You could tell something was gravely off about them.
i remember watching that case
im pretty sure she forced him to start doing dark magic n he did n then he got obsessed w satanic things (i might b wrong i watched it a long time ago soo)
What was his name?
@@faerydogmotheri looked it up, and i believe it is Anatoly Moskvin
I've listened to and watched many many crime podcasts and you are the best. Great job!!
For the ghost marriage that's two families of young deceased people essentially getting together and relocating their kids to be buried together, I kind of think that one is really sweet given the situation. Two grieving families who just want their child to not be alone in the afterlife, and to not lie buried alone. And then adopting each other as family, I just think it can help a lot in a process and time that is already so hard.
It has always been a concern for me whenever I go back to China to not go anymore alone since human trafficking is still in the news and new types of “traps” (luring girls to danger) are being reported on often. If girls are going to China please be safe and think before helping anyone (cause it might be a trap).
Also thank you Stephanie for not shaming Chinese people for the issues, I always feel like your channel is safe and just a place to bring light to stories without blaming the culture and people around it.
Human trafficking is a real danger everywhere in the world. In America, for example, women are being taken at supermarkets and parking lots, etc. Nowhere is safe to be a woman, unfortunately.
@@kimcheezy3433 in America too???
I’ve been here for the past 5 years . I’ve heard gruesome crime in news in the towns esp the very rural ones . I live in central area of a big city and I have also lived in a bigger town and it’s the safest I have ever lived . I take my dog walks at night or have night walks and I feel safe . So far , it’s the safest or maybe I lived in better area and safe neighborhood always so I can’t really say not to be aware
@@Lin-ps2tl there is a LOT in america as well 😕
She uses her examples very well, not to stigmatize but to inform and show how certain practices exist in many cultures.
I am so glad you mention the mysoginy in your videos. One can only kill a woman without remorse if they didnt see her as a person in the first place and many contest creators forget the issues that lead to cases and situations like this one. That Video is very well done!
If they don't have a conscious for killing a woman you think they would when killing a man? Quit making everything misogyny
@@RB25DET2498cc the fact that you care enough to comment on this says enough about you love. Do something about that anger maybe you'll be happier
@@insykko_6645 LOL You talk about this so called "Mysogyny" to blame the world for your failures as a woman and I'm the one that has anger? Hahaha I've started making 6 digit figure already from mid-late 20s and now have successful businesses. So I'm not angry with the world at all. :) But I know you feminists are angry with your lack of ability to achieve things and you want special treatment so that you could achieve it one way or another. Good work scum
@@insykko_6645 Something wrong happens to a man, that's unfortunate, something wrong happens to a woman, it's "misogyny".
This case about corpses reminds me of a thing that happened in an European country a few decades ago. It's been a while since I saw a video about it, but basically the funeral homes business was booming because of a pandemic or a mass illness, and when it stopped the owner of the funeral homes would bribe paramedics to brings the corpses of dead patients that died in the ambulances directly to them.
The more body you bring, the more money you make. The paramedics would recommend the funeral home to the deceased loved ones, and I think even propose to bring the corpses there directly or something. And the grieving family would be more inclined to accept and follow their recommendations, since the first responders "knew what they were talking about".
When the mass illness was contained and the death tolls stopped going up, the paramedics would just... Let people die when they needed life saving mesures, so they could get money. And some of them would also kill people that just needed minor medical interventions and that weren't supposed to die in their ambulance.
They also called the body that they would bring to the funeral homes "skins".
I would love for you to do a video on it, if you can ever find articles and stuff about it! Your team is crazy good 🖤
Edits : it's "Łódź skinhunters", it took place in Poland, in the early 1990's. It was a video of the youtuber Shrouded Hand that I watched, I recommend you check him out too!
Love your storytelling! I am sad for Kitty. May she rest in peace! The ghost marriage thing is utterly wild. I understand that people grieve differently, but they do not have the right to make these decisions for the dead. I personally believe that in our afterlife, we may still have the choice to marry. In the end everyone can be believe what they want as long as it's not harmful to others and themselves. It's terrifying to see how people can make money on people's grief.
The way he helps her with pronunciation and general Chinese history is so adorable.😊
stephanie still amazes me how she literally memorizes these crime stories to narrate to us without leaving a damn detail. respect😭
She's on an iPad, u didn't see the apple pencil she's holding in her hand? there's no reason for her to be holding a digital pencil if she wasn't on a tablet of some sort.
Yeah, Steph is a great storyteller but she has a script or outline at least. There's no way to tell a story for an hour and keep it clear and in line without notes.
Same!
@@diy_cat9817 Bards would like to disagree lol
No don't think youtubers are that way. She's fantastic but she Def has a script, maybe a team that writes it for her. Have you not ever noticed when she says a very similar phrase twice and forgets to edit it out? 😅
I pray this host is surrounded by nothing but good & motivated energies.
I felt the flip flopping. Me. I went through that. Dudes like that piss me off
On the topic of ghost marriages, there is a similar practice here in Romania, only people are not tricked into it. (Or sold...) When a young man or woman dies unwed (particularly if they also die known virgins), they might be buried in bridal attire; and a young person of the opposite sex who is also unwed might be "married" to them at the graveside by the priests to comfort the spirit and prevent lingering regrets. This young person is typically asked by the family to do this and they consent to it. Sometimes money changes hands for it, but often it’s just people doing it of their own volition because they were friends with the deceased, or want to help. Mostly it’s the peace of mind of the family they’re helping, of course, but, you know.
As for Kitty: God, this poor girl. She only had shitty men in her life. I hope she has at last found peace. :(
That actually sounds sweet though
I h8 those men.
@@Iera_Thaumaturgy No, it doesn’t... Marrying a dead child to a random neighbour at the graveyard is f* up, not to mention that the dead person never consented to be “married” in the first place!
Relatives should really stop messing with the dead-baptising, marrying, selling etc. corpses is not ok.
listened to this on Spotify a few days ago, just wanted to say that I'm so proud of you ! your videos have helped my mom and I bond over quarantine and our relationship is still going strong ! can't wait to see your next video 🤗
I came for the story in the title and instead got a whole deep dive on obscure cultural practises and so much more. This girl knows how to tell a story!!
CONGRATULATIONS & BEST WISHES TO YOU & HUBBY ... MOST SATISFYING JOURNEY FOR YOU BOTH FROM NOW ON !!!
I remember there was a horror movie here in the Philippines literally titled "Ghost Bride". The actors were interviewed later on, and one of them apparently had a family member who actually became a ghost bride, but she was alive when she was paid to get married to a dead guy. The actor described that the arrangement was consensual, and the dead guy's family treated her aunt as an actual in-law. The actor also mentioned that the tradition is not present at this time anymore because it is illegal, so I'm shookt that some people are even making a business from selling ghost brides.
Zee is responsible for little Kittys death. He needs to be held accountable for it.
That’s so sad and heartbreaking to be so depressed to the point you deem yourself not worthy more than someone treating you so disgustingly.
This is the first time watching you! I wanna say that I find other cultures and history very fascinating. I’ve never heard of ghost marriages but I can see why they happen. However, having human trafficking to murder women to marry off is very upsetting. I know there’s a lot of human and sex trafficking every where, now. Thank you for the explanation of what ghost marriage is all about!
