Hi Marek! Us transport team at vestas love the vids, keep up the good work👍 get well soon, we hope you organise a group walking event somewhere for all the cool dudes to come with you one day. Looking forward to seeing more ghost walks👍
I’ve always thought Ventnor sounds a bit other-worldly, like a character out of ‘Blake’s 7’ or something! Scary stuff Marek, - sorry you’re feeling ropey x
Yes, cool dude I thought of that, but I think I might just stick to TH-cam long format as it would mean more editing work. I am sort of against the short form attention content flooding the internet and shrinking my attention span. Plus I never feel l content whenever I accidentally find myself sucked into some 30 seconds reel thing. Do you find that? I don't know maybe I am getting old. Ha.
I am extremely late to the party but I wanted to tell you, cool dude, how much the 'Ventnob' bit made me laugh. I remember a friend of a friend changing the R to a B back in 1992 with some stones from the beach 😂 Makes me think of the Legend of Arse Heath. 😂
Aww I'm sorry to hear you've not been well. Glad you're on the mend though. When you told the story about that drug smuggling guy I was like, "Ooooh! This story was featured on one of my true crime podcasts the other day!" His partner denied everything but I think she got the same sentence as him because it was obvious that she helped him. Also loving the new emoji and the mini Marek tied up with a strawberry lace tickled me. .
Have really enjoyed all the Isle of Wight videos. I went a couple of times as a child but have been fearful to return due to the amount of dinosaurs I can recollect. Now I find out it is also riddled with ... It may take me a while yet to return. Keep up the good work
Ventnor is such a beautiful place to stroll around and great to hear some scary stories to boot. The Botanical Gardens have always been a favourite spot. Lucky that you did not end up being a ghost having been led up some stairs to a locked room with a total stranger
Another cool video, dude. I love your choice of background music too - makes a welcome change from the awful stuff most content creators choose 😊 It fits perfectly.
I really hate the dance music people put on calm walking stuff. I would prefer to use the sounds of the natural environment but it is mainly my heavy breathing. Ha.
I'm a bit late to the party here, but i've got those top two books from Gay Baldwin. I must've bought them about 14 years ago. One of them has an interesting account about a couple of people who discovered and had a drink in a pub they thought was called The Vulcan or similar. When they went looking for it at a later date it had vanished.. Maybe it was a timeslip?
Nice one Coll Dude. Love a good scary walk Rona is pretty impressive innit, absolutely wallops you, sleep and come springtime you'll be back to full health.
I'm sorry, Marek, to hear you're still feeling poorly in the aftermath of Covid. Glad you're feeling better enough to make this excellent video. As a kid I recall Dawlish Beach. Ventnor reminds me of those happy memories. I've always enjoyed a good ghostly library. That storage room is absolutely haunted.
Thanks for the video, hopefully you feel better soon! Libraries seem to be pretty popular places among ghosts - can't blame them, I wouldn't mind spending all eternity in a place full of books either. And what could be funnier than spooking all those annoying kids who scream and run between shelves?! Anyway, the local library in my former hometown is famously haunted - an old librarian lady never stopped working in the cellar storage room, even despite the mild inconvenience of dying. Many staff members have felt her icy cold breath in their necks, or seen a glimpse of a headless lady wearing a black skirt and a white pullover. One librarian who was taking books back to storage even witnessed books on a shelf separating from each other by an invisible hand, making room for that book the librarian was holding. Of course, that row of books split in exactly right place alphabetically...
I love the Isle of Wight and is this marek larwood from tv if so use to watch him on cbbc when i was younger i the ghost walk at the botanical gardens on 25/07/23
Great video as always and awesome facts! Love that area around Ventnor, not visited Steephill Cove yet. Hope you feel back to your normal self soon! Thanks Marek.
Ventnor (aka Ventnob) looks lovely - what a gorgeous day for bumping into ghosts and drug smugglers 😊 N if I saw those cocaine lads, I’d probably offer to help em carry their massive bags.... Cos I’m helpful like that 😅 Hope you’re feeling better now Marek - get well soon n stay cool! 👍🏼💟
Hello Marek, me and my late father saw that ghost ship back in 2008 all be it for a fleeting few moments. Many thanks for the beautiful book, love your art. Cheers, stay cool.
Great walk Marek. Jan did the Stephill cove walk and took a video of the whole thing. That was the one I told you about that I accidentally deleted😢. She is going to do it again with our son when we are back in June. I think if I delete this one I may become a ghost very quickley
I can see a grey-haired lady wearing a blue top (possibly Margaret Thatcher?) lurking amongst the stuff in your storage room clip. You may (or may not?) want to rethink referring to the "longest member"
@@cdwc was thinking more of just a bump for the road but not gonna turn down a kilo. Really feel I'm lowering the tone of this feel good channel, sure Sunglasses Marek will understand
Firstly, get well soon. So we need to start with the huge graffiti in the opening shot. What was it? Also, got to love the front seat of the upper deck! And with regards the last ghost, surely librarian ghosts would be the quietest and most polite. CD#123
I am sorry. I can't keep track of all the pictures as I keep getting sent them on all different platforms. Could you send it again to cooldudeswalkingclub@gmail.com and I will put it in the next one cool dude.
Ooooh, what a treat. Ghostly stories AND Steephill Cove all at once. Lovely jubbly guvnor! (Loving the painting by the way). Sorry to hear the dreaded C word got you😓....not nice is it? Bottles of Lucozade🍾 by the dozen always make me feel a bit better when I am poorly (couldn't find a Lucozade emoji so a Champagne bottle will have to suffice!). You are fast becoming the 2nd most famous Ghost Hunter on the IOW after Gay Baldwin. The car parking prices are enough to turn me as white as a sheet tbh....get well soon Marek Sending some strawberry lace emojis your way to help you recover (and a sausage ) x J x
A cool dude sent me a box of strawberry laces which have been excellent recovery fuel. I haven't had any sausages yet though. Might get some for tonight.
@@cdwc I'd send you some via the post but think they may be a wee bit dodgy by the time you get them, so here's another virtual one coming your way to cheer you up....x J x
Definitely very spooky... especially as I was downstairs having breakfast and just came upstairs to find this video playing. The tablet screen was off, so it shouldn't work... just checked the history and another 2 had played by themselves 😮 free views!
It's not just the car park at Ventnor botanic gardens. Cleaning staff in the main buildings have seen lights switching themselves on and off, strange activity on the staircase and there is something nasty in the gardens just beyond the ornamental pond. Definitely something "wrong" with the place.
Ah... all those locals thinking people in other towns and villages had grown out of calling their town 'Ventnob', then suddenly... 😄 Thanks for another goodun, Cool Dude : although I don't think we're ready for the inevitable Coke Dudes Walking Club. Let's face it, it would never end! 😉 Get well soon
So if ghost ships exist, can ghost houses exist, ghost libraries, or ghost cars?! do people have to have died in them for them to become ghosts? I'm intrigued!
£600k+ outlay plus 3 employees and transatlantic travel costs for just £879 return seems like a poor business model. I thought drug smuggling was more lucrative. If I saw them carrying it I probably wouldn't say anything but would definitely be mentally judging them on their manual handling technique thanks to years of mandatory training. Also, your pen and watercolour drawings are lovely, I reckon you could sell prints/cards of them if you wanted to, maybe print them on tea-towels or bags to sell as souvenirs for tourists. I've personally bought far worse when in the tourist mindset 🖌💰
That is a good shout about the prints. I think I am going to just stick to zines. I might make a birthday card. My problem with all the merch is that I have to buy in bulk to be able to sell it at a reasonable and I end up with boxes of hats, jumpers, stickers and t-shirts I can't shift. Ha.
Oh dear I saw in comments you were unwell? Hope you are okay. Can we get an update about if you got your hat and piles cushion back? Worried seal could be strangled by it. I mean he is a good singer but has he had any hits lately. Probably because he keeps getting strangled by floating plastic. Someone needs to stop him going in the water really… or teach Seal plastic awareness.
It was the start of a stinking cold. I also left my charging cable on the bus, and in the meantime I have misplaced another beanie and a glove. 2023 is a disaster.
£5 for parking?! I guess it really is Mayfair by- the- sea. If I saw those smugglers I think I would be so naive as to what they were doing I would offer to give them a hand. Finally, I never believed in ghosts until @10:08 in the video! Clearly a ghost in the glass! Incredible stuff Cool Dude.
Covid is a monster isn’t it! Recovery can be slow, take care and hope you’re back to full coolness soon very soon Very enjoyable spooky walk this one The Victorian girls appearing at the end of the lady’s bed were particularly scary!!! One question: did you get your hat and mat back????

I really wanted it to be like the one in Ghostbusters.
Just found you and love your ghost walks , there so interesting as an islander. 🙏 thanks
Nice one cool dude.
Get well soon cool dude no 1
Also does anyone else remember the smuggling museum in the carpark of botanic garden’s?
I wish it was still there.
Very cool
That is very kind. Thank you cool dude, much appreciated.
Another great walk Marek. Love the Spyglass Inn; a fantastic pub, as you say 👻
I was there when the Round the yacht race was going on one year. It was a great place to watch all the boats go by.

Nice one cool dude. Hello to all the transport team at Vestas!
I’ve always thought Ventnor sounds a bit other-worldly, like a character out of ‘Blake’s 7’ or something! Scary stuff Marek, - sorry you’re feeling ropey x
Ventnor definitely has a wonderful feel to it. I wish all the empty shops became art, book and comic shops.
You could post the individual ghost stories as reels, Marek. They'd go down a treat.
Yes, cool dude I thought of that, but I think I might just stick to TH-cam long format as it would mean more editing work. I am sort of against the short form attention content flooding the internet and shrinking my attention span. Plus I never feel l content whenever I accidentally find myself sucked into some 30 seconds reel thing. Do you find that? I don't know maybe I am getting old. Ha.

There are more ghosts here than people
Sorry you dropped out of the 'haven't had it yet' club. And hoping you make a speedy and complete recovery. Love your coastal walks so much.
Thank you. It has really knocked the wind out of me, but there will be more videos soon.
Ventnor is such a beautiful place to stroll around and great to hear some scary stories to boot. The Botanical Gardens have always been a favourite spot. Lucky that you did not end up being a ghost having been led up some stairs to a locked room with a total stranger
Maybe the ghost was just trying to tell people it was locked in.
*walks into library*
"Hello, I'm here to see the ghost"
That is pretty much how it went. Ha.
That was a really cool video. Great day for it. Love the hat in camper. Hope you feel better soon
Yes, I had not seen those hats before. It made me laugh.
Another cool video, dude.
I love your choice of background music too - makes a welcome change from the awful stuff most content creators choose 😊 It fits perfectly.
I really hate the dance music people put on calm walking stuff. I would prefer to use the sounds of the natural environment but it is mainly my heavy breathing. Ha.
Another nice one, cool dude! Walking directly along the water is absolutely gorgeous. 😀 You picked a good day.
Great cool dude video 👻 feel better soon !
Thanks cool dude.
Great video & stories, I love your Isle of Wight videos they remind of childhood holidays there
hope you feel better soon
I always try to pick nice days for the walks so it feels more like a holiday!

Ah yes I read that one. I think that story has appeared in a few different ghost books.
Hope you’re feeling better Marek - and I hope you found your mat and hat. That video was well scary… I need a lie down…
Alas the mat and hat are lost. At least it was just a beanie and not my magical Tilley Hat
I saw you filming this , i should have said hello.
Always doing ghost hunts on the IOW
I had a stinking cold so it was probably best you avoided me. Ha.
Okay... Shrouded Hand suggested this channel so i came to see.
Gonna subscribe just for any future ghost walks
Hope you get over covid soon, can leave you tired. Ventnor is beautiful, stay cool dude.
Thanks cool dude.
Nice one Coll Dude. Love a good scary walk Rona is pretty impressive innit, absolutely wallops you, sleep and come springtime you'll be back to full health.
As I read this I am contemplating going back to bed at 11.40am. Ha.

There is a walking festival in May and October.

Cool 👍

Definitely worth a walk down to Steephill Cove cool dude. See if you can find my hat while you're down there.

Super. Thank you for joining cool dude. I highly recommend Newtown Creek if you haven't visited there already.

I am more scared of accidentally deleting videos than ghosts.
@@cdwc you would be if you met Jan.
Pity the Smuggling Museum closed at the botanic gardens. Best stuff I found for covid was single malt........
I think there is a smuggling museum at Arreton Barns now.
HMS Eurydice sank on the 24th March 1878 Marek. Winston Churchill witnessed it when he was 4 years old.
Oh I wrote the date down incorrectly. Apologies.
I would say to them. Hey I think you could start a pretty big blizzard with that.
I can see a grey-haired lady wearing a blue top (possibly Margaret Thatcher?) lurking amongst the stuff in your storage room clip. You may (or may not?) want to rethink referring to the "longest member"
Lovely library 🙂👍
"Is that the real thing?" ....also, hope you make a full recovery soon mate. Steephill bay looked amazing!
Steephill Cove is definitely worth a visit cool dude.
I once commented to my friend about how foggy it was, but he didn't know what I was on about. Turns out I was standing inside a ghost.
