I once had to do my own research of all kind of cases for my final year project and what I learned from all the cases I researched on left a scar on my brain. I am unable to see anything normally now. So, Stephanie and her team working so hard with all the details is really amazing and words can't thank them enough for what they are doing.
Hey Stephanie, there's been a recent case in Pakistan, in Punjab College, a girl was raped by a guard and the school is attempting to cover it up, students are angered and this whole case has sparked outrage and protests, id appreciate if you could cover it to bring more awareness to what's going on.
Students are protesting, videos are being passed around of it. Coordinators and Principals are all victim blaming. At a different school, a coordinator said it was the fault of the girls clothes. She was wearing a school uniform. She is also currently in a coma due to the trauma of the injuries.
As someone who has worked in the cleaning company for 10 years I can guarantee you this was severe black mold poisoning. They have a perfect house for this type of problem. Sadly, a lot of people don't realize the dangers of black mold. Also, black mold isn't necessarily visible. I have been to many houses that were infested with black mold and we'd be terrified and start donning on protective gear and ask people "Why are you still here? This is dangerous. Didn't you feel anything?" And yes, they will tell you about headaches, etc, but they don't connect the two.
Yeah I have same thoughts. The common factor is the home. Especially early on when things started getting weird, things improved for each family when they spent time away from the home. No proper ventilation, no natural light, eating shit, starvation and torture is going to mess with people’s minds eventually. I’m not from Taiwan but I am Chinese and we have the same deities and beliefs, and I can tell you it’s not normally this deep. This family went completely off the deep end and they would have no matter what religion they happened to believe in
Shared psychosis is so horrifying! Theres an Indian case similar to this where the family of 11 hung themselves. Theres netflix docuseries about it "" house of secrets- the burari deaths""
Me, I was watching with my sister and I immediately mute it and folded my laptop screen a bit 😂 my sister just watched me weird out but I said better safe than sorry. Good movie overall
they did SUCH a good job with this movie. the way they incorporated the audience into the story at the end was brilliant and fun. definitely one of my favorite movies
I agree I’m a huge horror fan and not a lot of movies manage to scare me, but this movie managed to instill fear in me like I knew it was all fake but I felt uneasy and it took a bit for me to calm down and overcome that feeling
Those mountain entities are no joke, one time I went into devil's peak and I heard a faint whisper "Would you like to purchase an extended warranty for your vehicle". Exactly one week later, I ran into a deer with my rickshaw. This world is a mystery
@@atmywhitsondamn ....couldn't I hear more normal things like that...the voice I heard said " go homeless"...I was feeling fear and repulsion for money and I was thinking it might b a lesson for me to be more meek.. after months I still couldn't shake that feeling ,One night i was walking on the street and thought>I don't understand, what more can I do?.then I heard that . Another time I was ready to sleep and heard a creepy voice say.....come on, let's go to sleep Once I heard my name And yet another I heard children's laughter in my ears ,while I could hear the main door next room open, a friend of my bro came in and asked where was I. Then I heard my dad next room ask the same thing and i then realised my dad couldn't be coz he was out of town. That time was scary I got up and prayed to Jesus ,The alarm went off and then all returned to normal while peace fell in the room
If you see the family composition, the eldest daughter seemed to be the one that was less in the sick family circle of influence. She lived far away, had a boyfriend and was managing a store. They dragged her IN and suddenly she also start having issues and end up dead? No, that is not just collective hysteria. They K her. Even if it is not 1st degree, they did it. All this feel like they are giving it a pass because it was what they "believed". So coveniently she was the one with more bruises and in worst condition and everybody else survived? No, not believing it. Hope she haunts them forever.
We’ll it’s not that easy. None of us know for sure. But we do know her bruises and marks were just like the others. The Drs also said she passed from dehydration/starvation/stress on body. They all had it but her immune system gave out first. I’m sure the others would have also day/s after. It just happened to be her body first. I mean your theory can be correct but it’s prob maybe not. 👀🤔🤷♀️
It was probably something in the water. Nightshade or something. I heard of small amounts of such things getting into the rainwater or wells that families would use where are the whole family would go crazy, and then die. I understand the laws that surround collecting your own rainwater better now knowing that. 🤷♀️
Pls cover the rape case of PGC campus 10, it’s a college in Lahore, Pakistan. A girl was raped there by a security guard, when she accidentally got locked in the basement. The students of the college are protesting, but they’re being threatened by the police, and some authority figure of the college also threatened them saying something like “it can be you next, if you keep this up”. I believe some students were also arrested for their protests and talking about it on the social media. The owner of this college is a politician and this isn’t the first case of this college. Pls pls pls Stephanie you have to cover this case, it’s really brutal how they bury these cases, there are way too many
I made a comment on this as well!!! My friend goes to pgc and I am really worried for her. Things just keep getting worse. I hope the victim can be brought to justice.
As someone who has experienced psychosis first hand, this was absolutely shared psychosis. Between the sleep deprivation, the anxiety of medical school, anxiety of failure, mostly women so hormones actually do factor here, religious/spiritual up bringing... its a disaster waiting to happen. The brain does some incredible things like making demons real when there is high enough fear. The brain tries to rationalize why the body is feeling the way that it does. Also, spiritual beliefs factor HEAVILY in psychosis. It's more common to feel like you're being chased by demons (which was mine) than to have the psychotic belief that you are a prophet (which also does happen). That being said, I absolutely have to avoid paying too much attention to superstitions because of the sheer anxiety in induces. Most people who experience psychosis do not realize it was psychosis until many, many years later, if ever-- mine was 5 years. It took me five years to realize that my brain, the trauma that occured at the time, my fears/anxiety all of that just spiraled and my brain was doing its best to rationalize it, even by making unreal things breathe life.
spirits do exist tho, I also believe in this case that this might probably be shared psychosis but my sister experienced real "horror tragedy" where her best friend was possessed and threw herself to the cliff (thankfully saved). the friend didn't recall any memory from it
As a schizophrenic, yes and yes with delusions on top. Although I've had it from childhood(rare but possible) some pass some don't. But when it comes to real spirits, I'm not sure I can see that, however I'm with the poster, it's better to stay away than to sift through what is and isn't. But I have heard some real convincing stories.
I think it's interesting how this started off with two family members having nightmares and feeling sick right as they returned home from being away for a long time (college and having moved out), then after a few days in the home they felt okay, then left for an extended time to go to the mountains for a month and immediately upon returning again those three who left all have a mental collapse. the possessions are definitely shared delusion in my opinion, but I would not be surprised if this all started with mold poisoning and returning to a toxic environment after being away from it, while those who lived in it every day still were I guess acclimated to it. the shock to the system after breathing cleaner air for a while would hit harder.
Same thought. I have seen medical shows and stories on the internet about mold poisoning affecting the brain like hallucinations and altering personalities. Also parasite or even cancer may be a possibility. I wonder if the family went through a full medical checkup.
@onionigirin Well, sister A also came home from having lived away for a long time. She could have been poisoned too, and then the already frantic family used it as proof of sorts.
This is exactly what happened to that family in Australia. The Tromp family I believe was their name? I don't think anyone died in that situation and there wasn't anything religious about it they were just convinced someone was trying to end them. Very strange
theres actually a case in india a bit similar to this called the burari deaths where a whole family was found hung inside their home. these kinda cases scare me so bad 💔💔
@@amyfeagin-lv1yx i first heard abt it in a Netflix documentary called house of secrets and there many true crime vids here on yt. i only did a little digging to see how they were hanged and stuff (i don’t recommend looking bro its really sad and kinda gorey)
I keep watching this and I'm thinking "Why does no one bring up the possibility that one or a few of the family members might have obsessive compulsive disorder?" I have OCD and a lot of the earlier repetitive actions are symptoms of OCD. There are people who have what we call "religion OCD" which is where the people worry that if they do not do a certain act based on their religion, they will get in trouble by either God or the gods. I did look up to see if OCD people can get psychosis, and it actually does happen. It hasn't happened to me personally but I can see how it can easily cause a spiral. My theory is this: One or more of the family members has undiagnosed OCD. Because of that lack of treatment and not making any attempts to break the cycle they put themselves through, it completely spiraled and it did cause shared psychosis. I'm not a doctor so I can't diagnose them, but I'm saying this as someone who has OCD and knows that religion OCD does happen.
Technically when they evaluated them they discarded any mental disorder. Sure I am pretty convinced that experts in this cases and circumstances can be very unefficient, it's not like someone seeking help to better themselves in a more timely and proper manner. That's why i'm a firm believer that freedom of religion as we do it now is a huge problem, everybody should be free to follow their believes sure, but religions shouldn't be able to make claims that contradict human rights, health and mental health safety, personal freedoms, etc... I don't care about the Catholic church for example, the religion i grew up in, but that to this day they teach that self pleasuring for example will be punished by god if they don't repent and stop is a clearly trauma inducing behaviour that we wouldn't tolerate anywhere else. We have sex ed for a reason, so kids grow up in a safe environment and reducing traumas regarding sexual awakening, wich we have seen multiple times in this channel can be the trigger for plenty mental health problems in the future. For me a family normalizing going to the temple several times, bringing the master in, wich works unregulated and not having once in the journey of the family descent to madness the mechanisms in place to seek medical health is the real problem here. It shouldn't matter if somebody has OCD, your teacher, your doctor, your spiritual guide, your family or your environment should be informed and be reponsible enough, even legaly binded, to try to detect that you may need help and ask you to seek a diagnosis. I mean I have no idea, but I imagine knowing you have OCD helps a lot in order to progress, no matter how superstitious or religious or not one is.
I was institutionalized in the mid 2000s for OCD. I have intrusive thought OCD and I did indeed suffer from a psychosis. I was convinced if I didn't do my counting bad things would happen to animals. I suffered from this as a child and carried in into adulthood and thought I was "bad inside" for having these awful intrusive thoughts, and because I never wanted to cause harm to any animal ever, I couldn't stop myself. It took a lot of exposure and response therapy inpatient, in a controlled setting to begin to lower my anxiety level. It's a very difficult therapy to go through, as it actually stresses you out intentionally to show you over time you can survive not doing your compulsions, and that nothing will come of not doing them. It also took a lot of behavioral therapy to talk through what was actually going on in my head. BECAUSE I loved animals so much is why my brain "stopped and stared" at my intrusive thoughts that bothered me. We all have intrusive thoughts, but with OCD you have more irregular thoughts like these that your brain "notices". To distract yourself from what bothered you, you feel compelled to counter act it with your "compulsions". Thinking these compulsions will stop whatever you are worried about is called "magical thinking". I wanted to stop these thoughts so bad, I limited what I exposed myself to and was near catatonic. But it really didn't help. I could look at a fork, and see a kitten being stabbed by a fork, so I would do things like counting dots in the wood and tell myself if I counted all of them, my cat wouldn't die. But I would always lose count eventually and think, 'I must be an awful person for putting my cats life at risk'. And my self esteem struggled immensely because I thought I was an awful person. I developed an eating disorder to take my thoughts off the OCD, which fit in perfectly with it because it was more numbers to count. I'm medicated now to help control the intrusive thoughts, but now is I have them I just tell myself "it's your OCD, not you. " and I don't allow myself to get to the counting phase because it won't help anything. Just my personal story I wanted to share, it might help someone realize they too are suffering. It took me MANY YEARS to find my personality outside identifying as a damaged, bad person. Only reason I had thoughts about animals is because I never wanted anything to happen to them; that's why those thoughts were what my brain focused on. Whatever bothers you is probably because it's the thing that upsets you the most.
In Kazakhstan, a 16-year-old boy named Sherzat was brutally murdered right in front of his brother. The perpetrators split Sherzat’s head in two. Despite the family’s efforts to bring justice, the case has dragged on with no response from authorities. Recently, it was reported that Sherzat’s brother was also killed, with claims of suicide being false. Their house was burned down, and their grandmother was placed in a psychiatric institution. The family continues to receive threats. Please share this situation to raise awareness and ensure justice is served
I agree wholeheartedly. I re-listen to her videos when going to sleep and I fall asleep within 20 minutes ( which for me is an achievement since I have had chronic insomnia for over 20 years )
58:16 makes me think of the family who swore their house was haunted and they had all these hallucinations and it turns out they had a toxic plant called Datura in their water tank
I am beyond impressed at your ability to memorize these stories with thorough memory of details and then tell the story seemingly unscripted because I don’t see your eyes move. You’re very good at your job I’m impressed and envious!
I usually stay away from horror movie stories being real in any way but the way Stephanie tells stories just scratches my brain perfectly. So I shall listen....
Is it really scary? I usually watch whatever stepahine uploads here but I'm quite skeptical with this one cause I got freaking scared of the other story of the japanese boy 😅.
@@bessay-k3nYeah, its a found footage film that just slowly gets more intense and intense Imo one of the more terrifying found footage films out there besides movies like Noroi The Curse
the way stephanie talks about these is so amazing. she researches everything before she makes a video and she never makes jokes about death/true crime like other podcasters do
I love all the additional info, because those are knowledge. Like in the hostage situation in Brazil where two girls were held hostage for 100 hours... In that video, Steph explained the nuances of communication between a negotiator and a criminal who held hostages. That was mind-blowing for me.
I believe that I’m suffering of depression and might even have bpd. Your videos help me sleep at night because I struggle with that as well. I hope you keep doing these videos, they help a lot when I focus on the cases it gets rid of all the bad in my life. Thank you Stephanie and the rotten mango community ❤
In high school we had this teacher who’s a believer of feng shui. I can remember her saying that feng shui is also telling us practical things just interpreted differently. Like placing your bed in a certain direction for supposed positive energy. But if you think about it, it’s just suggesting to put your bed in that direction away from sunlight so it will not be so bright when you wake up.
I don’t believe in it but if I sleep with my head facing North and my windows shut out with curtains and blinds I sleep like a baby. If I sleep any other direction….its not good sleep. Likewise even in the dead of winter black as night, if my window is not covered I will not sleep. since painting my living rooms and kitchen yellow my family have become much more energized, positive, and financially blessed. Even without looking for opportunities they fall in front of us. Plants also brightened my home and gave it life I don’t know but as long as they are positive changes, I’m down. 😊
There’s a TH-camr who actually makes shorts about Feng Shui that makes it fairly easy to understand. It’s basically better utilization of space and “flow of energy” in the room. You don’t want your bed next to the door cause it’s where the most foot traffic happens, and can disturb a restful sleep. And if anyone were to break in, you’d at least want a bit of distance to react and get away. Which makes sense since Feng Shui was historically used extensively by the ancient Chinese noble class who had to be wary of assassinations.
i agree with both of you saying that it just spiraled into a psychosis, like a loop that they cannot get out of, once they believe one thing ( the dreams) they will just keep on continuing to believe other things and if they get even the slightest kind of a "proof" (something that they, as spiritual based people, believe to be a proof) they will just believe it more and more and mixing with the fear, they will go insane into the shared psychosis + the kids being surrounded by the "believes" from young age also adds to the story
This is why the environment in your home is a crucial thing to consider raising a child in. With the parents being extreme, they're bound to all go down in one path. It's like a disease passing down from one to another not until they try to get REAL help or try to help themselves to change for the better. What happened was that they spiraled into a circle of continuous paranoia about those dreams. It's like the circle of problems. The more u involve yourself in it, the more problems it will create instead of breaking it off. Like traumas. To move on you have to find a way to break the cycle. It's a really simple thing to understand yet they chose to make it more difficult because of those things they believe in.
I honestly am not too superstitious but I am very well religious and honestly you HAVE to put boundaries upon what you believe in because there's only much limit to smth you believe in. When you're too obsessed with smth, you will be bound to be attached to it and start to make it your whole life and what you believe in.
I stuck my fingers in my ears every time they played the chant and my boyfriend sang worship songs to drown out any sounds that filtered through. It was both a terrifying and hilarious experience. The movie was hella disturbing.
29:54 there is an aunt from my mom's side of family, who got possessed by a goddess on some specific Thursdays. i have not met her but my mom tells stories that she can tell fortune of people on those days and can answer anything of past present and future. like steph said, she becomes a medium on those special days. her voice and demure also changes. the phenomenon is called "mata ana" in hindi. i also have saw this "mata ana" in kali mandir/temple where a lady was crying and veiling loudly in front of the idol of kali, the people around started to play dhols and musical instrument loudly while her hair was a mess. people around her were standing around her like they are praying to her. my mom dragged me from the there coz i was small i and i may get scared.(i was visiting the village to see my mom's grandma on her last breath) i wanted to see more but mom dragged me. it said that the lady got "mata ana". i was small so i just remember the scene (everything started abruptly there). i would definately stayed to see and analyse what was going on if i ever witness that again. i wanna see if this "mata ana" is really a divine thing or that is something else. (but questioning religious stuff is risky business especially the phenomenon of mata ana when people are so firm believer) the incident happen in a village which now is turned into a semi urban area, and i have not visited the village for so long so idk if people there still a believer or not.
There has been a recent case of a girl who was raped by a security guard in Punjab Groups of colleges in Lahore, Pakistan. College principal is threatening students to not speak up about the case but students have been protesting against the college , we all want justice. I hope she gets justice she deserves. Please cover this case.
@@dancesmokesmile344 she has not because this case is recent and we all are confused about what's real what's wrong because of the ambiguity of this case. Authorities are denying the accusation while students are saying such incident has happened there and many students have been injured while protesting as well
2:26 Sounds like the mom got some jinn pretending to be her daughter, they definitely can shape shift and their friends who remain invisible could be behind the moving of things around.
PLEASE PLEASE make a video on Hind Rajab, she was only 6 when she and her family along with two paramedics were shot dead by the IDF. She deserves to be remembered
outside of feng shui, houses on t-junctions have a slightly higher odds of cars crashing into them compared the the houses next to them because there's a road leading straight to the house where drunk drivers and cars with broken brakes can go straight into. so there is a practical reason as to why houses on t junctions are ever so slightly more dangerous to live in compared to neighbouring houses.
@@KimJongUnnierather everyone start collectively believing we have cool anime powers and fights and we end up with it. Sick of this boring ass mudane world where the closet thing to fantasy is a lightbulb
I wish teachers could teach me math, english, science and history the same way Stephanie tells horror stories and true crimes because they way she has me hooked into these stuff and has me learn about deep religious stuff ion even know about
This really sounds like a case of schizophrenia which then caused a case of “mass hysteria” or more specifically “Folie à deux”- Shared delusional disorder (SDD). I think given this family’s very strong beliefs (beliefs none of the other family members would question either and believe right away), they created a perfect powder keg for the daughter’s schizophrenia to ignite. This isn’t to say I don’t believe in the paranormal, I do, but I think this is the most rational answer in this case. Still very sad. Edit: Oop just got to the part of the episode where she says the same. Also we know the rest of them didn’t have schizophrenia but that doesn’t mean the oldest didn’t because obviously she couldn’t be evaluated. Also I saw the movie months ago and I’m fine, it was okay, not at all THAT scary. Worth the watch though. It’s probably still on Hulu for those interested in seeing it.
OCD is also a possible assumption, albeit a lesser one. I also find it interesting that the eldest sister supposedly starts spiraling after a phone call. Either way, horribly sad case of overfeeding a shared delusion. Something hereditary bouncing off one another.
Can you do case of Dana Alatobi? She was of model and got murdered by her marine husband in Hawaii. She reported the abuse but military didn’t do anything instead they were harassing her
I hate seeing comments like this because I always think "she's already covered that" or "someone already has".. When actually, it's because similar things happen THAT often. Breaks my heart and makes me rage. 😢😢 I second this!
A lesser demon possessing one of them is a possibility, even a deity in possession of one family member, yeah, but all of them, and possessed by very important deities? Not likely at all, I suspect some kind of mold or fungus poisoning them.

i need stephanie to talk about the lady who told the police officers “cheer up, at least you caught the bad guy.” that whole situation was so unnerving
I tried it in the 90’s and threw up real bad. I’d rather compare her to something fantastical like that feeling you have when you hit ‘complete checkout’ on a big ass online cart you’ve been building for hours. 😂
Hello Stephanie!! I hope you cover the case of a girl who was r*ped in PGC campus 10 in Pakistan!! The case is still ongoing but the government and campus is lying and trying to pretend nothing happened and hiding the case.Students are currently organizing and leading protests and many students have been injured in the protest.
It would really help us if this case is covered by a large channel like yours and help in spreading this case especially since the authorities are suppressing students and this case.
@Rotten Mango please PLEASE PLEASE COVER lahore pgc incident before the institute presses the matter completely PLEASE there are protests going on in different campuses and in every city police is deployed which is arresting students some are seriousy injured and few brave soldiers got martyred.BOTH Boys and Girls campus the government isnt helping either PLEASE PLEASE cover it so atleast the ppl in the clg can know it aint fake cuz in cities other than lahore students are divided cuz few believe its fake even in my campus and within the class there are such kinda students.the clg has given off to students so they dont protest there are units of police outside every campus and main road,the culprit has fled and clg has temporarily shut down.our board exams are near and most students cannot afford wasting a year.PLEASE COVER THIS INCIDENT SO ATLEAST PGC STUDENTS ARE AWARE .no one is beleiving students not even the teachers. please make a short vedio even if a ten min vedio please just let the case come in light before its too late,the government is taking this situatution as political issue and police has warrant to shoot students who are 15 to 18 yrs old,the police isnt hesitating assaulting boys or girls they literally hit students with there vehicle.the boy passed away,especially in lahore th students are getting assaulted by their own teacher and no one is beleiing them there are 3 news of 3 different students passing away bcz of this instiute a fifth semester student of ucp (punjab university aka uni by pgc) commited suicide in her hostel bcz of blackmailing issues ,protesters are getting arrested there acc are getting hacked and i also heard a student who leaded first or somthg protest was kidnapped
Hey can you cover the case of a young 1st year student being rap*d in a well known institute of Pakistan by a guard and a van driver but the institution who swore to protect the girls is trying to cover up the case so that they do not lose their so called respect. We need international recognition for protests because even our governors are trying to cover this up. Only students are protesting. It's a very fresh case and we want your help
The institute name is Punjab Group of College or pgc for short in Gulburg Lahore. The girl's identity is not revealed yet because she's still under treatment in icu
@W4ltx ofc!! As someone who also lives in Pakistan I hope we get justice for once even if it seems like we won't we need to atleast spread the case as much as we can
My father went through this. Part of me accepts that it was alcohol and drug induced psychosis but one night I'll never forget while he was yelling at the "entity" it spoke over him. Never met a ventriloquist who could do 2 voices at the same time. It was so real to me but then again so we're the ptsd flashbacks I had of him going nuts. Thought it was all real when he wasn't even home. Wild what the mind can do
Did anyone else think that the 'too small to be cigarette burn marks' burn marks were from the incense sticks? I don't think she mentioned that, but it seems obvious, no? I might have to listen to her video again.
ive been burnt by incense sticks before. the marks are small and take a while to completely fade from the skin. i think it's plausible the burns were from incense sticks
I don't know where I saw this but allow me to say it again: I wonder how Stephanie can research and investigate and present these kinds of appalling and disturbing cases and still retain her sanity. It's a tragic marvel and she's a blessing for getting these cases out for more to see and learn from.
The moment you said they were very extreme in their beliefs, and that it would escalate, my thought was (shared) spiritual psychosis. I think now it might also have gotten worse because of the toxins or fumes of the incense, because they closed up all the ventilation too.
the reports also states that the shared spiritual psychosis got worst after they drank the talisment water from the priest they hired. They drank that talismans water for 30 days straight. Which usually is written using a red mineral ink that is slightly poisonous. Which can contribute to organ failure if not for the fecal matter found. There are reports of kids dying of kidney failure and lead poisoning due to drinking talisment water.
*The movie gave me the creeps and after knowing that it was based off a true story I couldn’t sleep for months…* *Thank you Steph & Rm team for all the work and research you do on worldwide cases* ❤️🥭
Hi! Can you please cover the case of rape of a student at PGC campus 10. She was raped by 2 guards and a van driver in the college basement and was admitted in the ICU. Some people are saying that she is dead now. Students from all over the Pakistan are protesting but all the campuses of Punjab college are denying the whole thing and suspending the students. 》It's said that it was done by guards and van driver but it may be someone high-up seeing the way how they're trying to cover the case cause it's not possible for a mere driver to do something like this and run away like he never existed.
i watched it with my sister in my old bedroom and my bed was directly in front of the door. Th way my door is built is that there is a 2 way mirror on it. In the morning i can see my living room from the inside of my bedroom but at night, if someone's in my living room, they can see the inside of my room and i can't see them looking. This was about 2 years ago i think and we were watching the movie on my bed cause that movie was weird af and trust me i don't get scared by horror movies. When the movie was over my sister and i heard a few sub tle knocks at the door. It stopped for a few minutes and it started again, knock knock knock. Needless to say we were scarred shitless. I screamed who is it? the door opened slowly accompanied with a creaking sound made by it. My sister and i got underneath the blanket and soon after a slow laughter emerged from the few moments of silence. i thought to myself that the voice was familiar so peeked to see who or what it was. IT WAS MY FUCKING BROTHER who thought it was a great idea to scare us. He saw us cuddled up watching a movie and knew we were watching a horror one by the expression we were making. I swear we literally thought we were fucked.
I dont think this case has anything to do with Hinduism 5:44 . I've been studying Hinduism as a Hindu myself. From what i understand, all the gods mentioned here has no relation to Hinduism. There are a number of followers of Hinduism that believe god can possess humans but for a short while to give their blessings & go. And its only happens in holy places like Temples NEVER in home or other places thats not holy. The people who are possessed are not really said to be a spiritual medium or anything. Theyre just normal people & they describe the experience as being in a trance like state. I've seen a lot of this stuff & think it is real & but we never know. The piercing body with needles is also followed by a very very small amount of people BUT they're not possessed by anything when they do it most of time. And they dont do it because the god said so but rather because that's what they offered in return for the gods fulfilling their wishes. Its not always extreme like body piercing sometimes they do it very simply like carrying milk pots to bath the statue of god in milk. Its all about what you can do. ITS NEVER ENCOURAGED AS WELL. They say they dont feel pain at all & heal real fast because what they're doing is for god & they take the pain away. All in all if u learn about true Hinduism rather than the Hinduism practiced today which i belive is not so right due to people forgetting the original goal which is to reach 'moksha' & break the endless cycle of birth & rebirth, u can say that its a religion that teaches nothing but good.Its the oldest religion for a reason. More than religion its a philosophy. Its beautiful and i hope people with recognize & appreciate Hinduism & take its good teachings even if they don't want to follow it. Its fun religion! If i made any mistake please do correct me. Thank you Stephanie :)
It's actually terrifying that such things coulda happened Also who knows, maybe it was shared psychosis affecting family members that were in a fragile state of mind
hiii! Can you please talk about Seunghan’s case and how he’s been bullied by his own fans (they even sent him a thousand funeral wreaths to wish him death) and how his company allowed it forcing him to leave his group ?
Personally I don't think it's fans, I think it's SM hiring fake ones. I have helped plan 3 weddings in the last 3 years, and let me tell you, florals are EXPENSIVE. That was thousands of dollars of flowers. Most kpop fans are under 25 and not rich. Who has enough disposable income at that age to spend a couple hundred bucks from the same florist buying matching flower arrangements, huh? And when did they all place those flowers around SM headquarters and why didn't security stop them, because that's super bad for pr so one would think they would stop fans and try to keep the anger online in fan circles, not the broader media out in the open. Because SM's stocks are down. Seunghan is just SM's sacrificial lamb. He's a new idol, recently debuted, not a lot of fans, hasn't made SM a ton of money. They won't miss him. NCT is SM's biggest boy group, that's their cash cow. After Johnny and Haechan's sex scandal, where they allegedly had a 5 some with fans in Japan, SM stock took a hit in June. (honestly we know how male celebrities will take advantage of young female fans, so even though SM claims it didn't happen, I am not 100% convinced). Then Taeil's sex crimes (gang r*pe) come to light later in the summer (hmm seems nct has a problem with group sex...). There's too much proof, criminal charges with police have been filed. With Johnny amd Haechan the alledged fans did not file criminal charges with police, so it's easy for SM to just say "oh we investigated it and it's not true", and of course people don't want to think badly of their parasocial relationships so it doesn't take much to keep them from not wanting to consider the alternative. SM's stock took another 8% hit after Taeil was charged. SM has a pattern of getting the public involved with business matters the public cannot do anything about. They're a publicly traded company, and when Hybe bought the majority shares, the CEO of SM made an emotional video urging the public to protest the "hostile take over by Hybe who will ruin the integrity of our artists" (that's paraphrasing but you can look it up. It's very manipulative, worded so fans will feel they have to protect their idols from abuse. But wtf is an 18 fan gonna do? They can't buy out Hybe. SM isn't stupid, why did they really make that video? To control public image) Getting fans to feel they need to protect Seinghan from other FANS, not the corporation, is a good way to keep the public talking about something other than the fact not one but 3 members of SM's most profitable boy group have bad major sex scandals, and commited crimes against women, this summer. So lets blame the crazy female fans for sending him funeral flowers, not the corporation that protects its idols from scandal so they can keep making them money 💰. Big corporations highering fake protestors to skew public opinion isn't new. When an elderly women got 3rd degree burns because McDonalds kept their coffee too hot, and she sued just to cover her medical bills and the hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of skin grafts, McDonalds hired fake protesters to go out in the street with signs saying she was just a stupid greedy old lady making a frivolous lawsuit because she was too dumb to know coffee was hot. This is an old game out of the big corporation playbook
I had no clue Incantation was based on an actual true story. This is absolutely heartbreaking. You guys work so hard putting these videos together, please take care of yourselves!
Stephanie, you are my favorite person on TH-cam! Your personality sparkles! You and your husband’s banter and relationship is such a joy to watch, and you have the most respect for your cases and present them so fluidly and beautifully. I’m so thankful to have found your channel!!!!
So…steph..there’s a recent case in Pakistan. Well not a case since the government is taking no charges. A collage in Lahore, pgc is covering the SA of a first year student (she allegedly passed not sure).Protests have been going on for the past days, it has became so bad that they were beating up students for protesting. The media isn’t taking this as seriously since the identity of the student and her parents remain anonymous.
I saw you almost cry when you talked about the comfort women and i cried with you 😢 and now im looking at all youre videos i just love you,re empathic voice and you,re realness ❤
As someone that’s not very religious (Christian background) but a bit spiritual, I believe everything is for a reason, even when the director said the chants are all fake, those chants still came from an inspiration For example when Christian’s pray in tongues, to the unbeliever or someone that doesn’t understand what it means, it will sound like made up words or nonsense to their ears but it’s not nonsense because the person praying is under a certain inspiration, they believe they are speaking to angels So when the writers are making up the words for the chants, they fully understand what they want the words to mean to people watching it and what the hidden message is, so that’s their own inspiration
Context: Taoist believes in 三魂七魄 which translates to 3 souls 7 senses. Hence its possible to lose 1 soul and still be alive. It is believe that if a person loses 1 soul for too long, that soul will no longer be able to return and will lead to the eventual death.
Recently a girl was raped in punjab college lahore pakistan by a college guard but the authorities of the college are pretending as if nothing of this sort has happened which is leading reason for students to do great protest all over the country. This is an on-going case and the only thing we want is justice. I hope you will for sure cover this case.
there has been a recent case of a girl getting assaulted in Punjab Group of colleges, lahore, Punjab. The college principal is treating to suspend and expel the student speaking up about it and protesting. it would be nice if u could cover it, it will help build pressure and bring up the issue on a more international level since they r suppressing it.
Hey, can you discuss the case about the orphanage owner who raped children under his care, aged 7 and above, for 18 years? There are about 20 victims. This case is truly heartbreaking, and I want more people to know about it so that it can continue to be monitored until one of the perpetrators, who fled with one of the orphanage children, is found. The case occurred in Indonesia, and while it is shameful, I hope and wish that everyone can help keep an eye on this case until the perpetrator is found! 🤬😭
I loved Taiwanese horror movie but this one Gabe me nightmares I prayed for a whole week and now learning it based of a true story changes everything. I send my love to that family. 🥺💕
It's so crazy the amount of emotions/ expressions your hands show, they always catch my attention with how red they are! I'm so grateful for you covering the content you do! please keep it up
I can see comments discussing the case, and cases to cover in the future, maybe people just really appreciate her content. Sounds odd but I use these videos to chill out, learn a story more chaotic than my own. I imagine quite alot of stephs viewers feel the same, no? X
As someone who had a horrible OCD episode late 2020, when you enter in that nightmare cycle, it takes a toll on you so fast. I couldn't sleep for almost a week, only taking small naps and waking up all anxious. I'm not religious, so my answer to that was: I'm losing grasp on my anxiety; but I could see a religious person creating a whole mystical scenario as an explanation (This I don't mean it in an insulting way) Many people think ocd is the cutesy thing about not liking even things, but when it's religious/thought ocd, you seriously start to believing the lies your brain created after going from thought A to thought B in ten minutes and you're convinced the world is crumbling down. That's mostly my personal experience, so it's just anecdotal, but it feels like that. Many mental illnesses are genetic, so it'd not be that unheard-of.
The birth is the same but then the rest of the story of the third prince is very different. It was said that the third prince wanted to protect his family and he was seen as a deity but the Kauravs were villains. They were evil.
Stephanie, please help us spread the word about Seunghan from RIIZE, who was bullied by antifans into leaving just two days after returning. The antis sent thousands of death wreaths and some are wishing him dead! What’s worse is thats his company sided the antis! If this keeps going on other idols will get affected. Idols should not be treated as robots. Please We really need your support!
I didn't know that it was based on true story, i remember watching it alone in my room, lights off, and whenever they chant the incantation I'd empty my brain because the vibe is way too off. It's not terrifying, but it was chilling, and creepy, they're like mentally unstable.
As someone with OCD who used to take antipsychotics for it as a kid… this sounds to me like if you put a whole family of mentally ill, suggestible people in an isolated environment with each other to escalate. If at any point while having an OCD breakdown my mom (thankfully a medical professional) had told me it was demons or that I was possessed-100% I would have believed it and could see something like this happening. I left the church for a lot of reasons, but one of them is that religion is a HUGE trigger for a lot of OCD sufferers. I’m not saying they specifically had to have OCD-but anything with a link to psychosis makes superstition and religion potentially harmful. I get really mad when people tell schizophrenia sufferers that their voices are demons, or somebody decides to try to push religious propaganda on me when I am at work and can’t walk away. It can really hurt people. There are a lot of kids out there desperately in need of real medical assistance that live under extremist roofs and it makes me really sad and scared for them.
This video kind of reminds of the case of Rina Yasutake. Shared delusions between her and the family resulting in her death, and they basically mummified her. The first time I've heard of this story was from Mr Ballen. I haven't seen any other people cover that story. I would love to see it on this channel. It really creeped me out
Hey Stephanie! I was wondering if you would want to cover a case of school shooting in Prague, Czechia. It happened less than a year ago, but it still has a large impact on people living here. It was the first school schooting that has ever happened here. Thank you :)
I've seen devotees like the spiritual mediums explained at 32:28 in my country a lot. but it still gives me chills to think how painful it is for normal people to do that.
Hi Stephanie, I wanted to reach out to you and say that there has been a recent case in Pakistan, Lahore which has caused an outrage in the country. An assault/r@pe of a student has happened in PGC (punjab college Lahore) I’m not sure how much information is out there but it would be appreciated if you spread some awareness cause the college won’t do anything and the people need Justice.
Steph's voice, presence, her expressions and interaction with her husband make these stories far more interesting like...girl you found ur thing, you win

Hey Stephanie, there's been a recent case in Pakistan, in Punjab College, a girl was raped by a guard and the school is attempting to cover it up, students are angered and this whole case has sparked outrage and protests, id appreciate if you could cover it to bring more awareness to what's going on.
Students are protesting, videos are being passed around of it. Coordinators and Principals are all victim blaming. At a different school, a coordinator said it was the fault of the girls clothes. She was wearing a school uniform. She is also currently in a coma due to the trauma of the injuries.

As someone who has worked in the cleaning company for 10 years I can guarantee you this was severe black mold poisoning. They have a perfect house for this type of problem. Sadly, a lot of people don't realize the dangers of black mold. Also, black mold isn't necessarily visible.
I have been to many houses that were infested with black mold and we'd be terrified and start donning on protective gear and ask people "Why are you still here? This is dangerous. Didn't you feel anything?"
And yes, they will tell you about headaches, etc, but they don't connect the two.
My first thought was the family was being poisoned by mold.
can you name a few more problems/symptons these families face due to black mold? How do you spot black mold with the naked eye?
@@SarahDarbar It's pretty obvious. It looks like a leak on the ceiling but completely black. Stuff is NASTY!
I just started the video, but it sounded like the Haunting of the Hill House
Yeah I have same thoughts. The common factor is the home. Especially early on when things started getting weird, things improved for each family when they spent time away from the home.
No proper ventilation, no natural light, eating shit, starvation and torture is going to mess with people’s minds eventually.
I’m not from Taiwan but I am Chinese and we have the same deities and beliefs, and I can tell you it’s not normally this deep. This family went completely off the deep end and they would have no matter what religion they happened to believe in

If you see the family composition, the eldest daughter seemed to be the one that was less in the sick family circle of influence. She lived far away, had a boyfriend and was managing a store. They dragged her IN and suddenly she also start having issues and end up dead?
No, that is not just collective hysteria. They K her. Even if it is not 1st degree, they did it. All this feel like they are giving it a pass because it was what they "believed".
So coveniently she was the one with more bruises and in worst condition and everybody else survived? No, not believing it.
Hope she haunts them forever.
I suspect the same. Very creepy.
Yes I agree. Let’s call it out like it is
We’ll it’s not that easy. None of us know for sure. But we do know her bruises and marks were just like the others. The Drs also said she passed from dehydration/starvation/stress on body. They all had it but her immune system gave out first. I’m sure the others would have also day/s after. It just happened to be her body first. I mean your theory can be correct but it’s prob maybe not. 👀🤔🤷♀️
It was probably something in the water. Nightshade or something. I heard of small amounts of such things getting into the rainwater or wells that families would use where are the whole family would go crazy, and then die. I understand the laws that surround collecting your own rainwater better now knowing that. 🤷♀️
But the youngest was also far away , she lived in dorms and only came to see her family from time to time , I don't know I'm confused lol
Pls cover the rape case of PGC campus 10, it’s a college in Lahore, Pakistan. A girl was raped there by a security guard, when she accidentally got locked in the basement. The students of the college are protesting, but they’re being threatened by the police, and some authority figure of the college also threatened them saying something like “it can be you next, if you keep this up”. I believe some students were also arrested for their protests and talking about it on the social media. The owner of this college is a politician and this isn’t the first case of this college. Pls pls pls Stephanie you have to cover this case, it’s really brutal how they bury these cases, there are way too many

As someone who has experienced psychosis first hand, this was absolutely shared psychosis. Between the sleep deprivation, the anxiety of medical school, anxiety of failure, mostly women so hormones actually do factor here, religious/spiritual up bringing... its a disaster waiting to happen. The brain does some incredible things like making demons real when there is high enough fear. The brain tries to rationalize why the body is feeling the way that it does. Also, spiritual beliefs factor HEAVILY in psychosis. It's more common to feel like you're being chased by demons (which was mine) than to have the psychotic belief that you are a prophet (which also does happen). That being said, I absolutely have to avoid paying too much attention to superstitions because of the sheer anxiety in induces. Most people who experience psychosis do not realize it was psychosis until many, many years later, if ever-- mine was 5 years. It took me five years to realize that my brain, the trauma that occured at the time, my fears/anxiety all of that just spiraled and my brain was doing its best to rationalize it, even by making unreal things breathe life.
spirits do exist tho, I also believe in this case that this might probably be shared psychosis but my sister experienced real "horror tragedy" where her best friend was possessed and threw herself to the cliff (thankfully saved). the friend didn't recall any memory from it
As a schizophrenic, yes and yes with delusions on top. Although I've had it from childhood(rare but possible) some pass some don't.
But when it comes to real spirits, I'm not sure I can see that, however I'm with the poster, it's better to stay away than to sift through what is and isn't. But I have heard some real convincing stories.
I think it's interesting how this started off with two family members having nightmares and feeling sick right as they returned home from being away for a long time (college and having moved out), then after a few days in the home they felt okay, then left for an extended time to go to the mountains for a month and immediately upon returning again those three who left all have a mental collapse.
the possessions are definitely shared delusion in my opinion, but I would not be surprised if this all started with mold poisoning and returning to a toxic environment after being away from it, while those who lived in it every day still were I guess acclimated to it. the shock to the system after breathing cleaner air for a while would hit harder.
this!!! why is no one talking about this more?? this is most likely what happened
Same thought. I have seen medical shows and stories on the internet about mold poisoning affecting the brain like hallucinations and altering personalities. Also parasite or even cancer may be a possibility. I wonder if the family went through a full medical checkup.
@onionigirin Well, sister A also came home from having lived away for a long time. She could have been poisoned too, and then the already frantic family used it as proof of sorts.
Why does this feel like an school reflection lmao
This is exactly what happened to that family in Australia. The Tromp family I believe was their name? I don't think anyone died in that situation and there wasn't anything religious about it they were just convinced someone was trying to end them. Very strange
theres actually a case in india a bit similar to this called the burari deaths where a whole family was found hung inside their home. these kinda cases scare me so bad 💔💔

I keep watching this and I'm thinking "Why does no one bring up the possibility that one or a few of the family members might have obsessive compulsive disorder?" I have OCD and a lot of the earlier repetitive actions are symptoms of OCD. There are people who have what we call "religion OCD" which is where the people worry that if they do not do a certain act based on their religion, they will get in trouble by either God or the gods. I did look up to see if OCD people can get psychosis, and it actually does happen. It hasn't happened to me personally but I can see how it can easily cause a spiral.
My theory is this: One or more of the family members has undiagnosed OCD. Because of that lack of treatment and not making any attempts to break the cycle they put themselves through, it completely spiraled and it did cause shared psychosis.
I'm not a doctor so I can't diagnose them, but I'm saying this as someone who has OCD and knows that religion OCD does happen.
The same with psychotic disorders like schizophrenia, it can be genetic
Technically when they evaluated them they discarded any mental disorder. Sure I am pretty convinced that experts in this cases and circumstances can be very unefficient, it's not like someone seeking help to better themselves in a more timely and proper manner. That's why i'm a firm believer that freedom of religion as we do it now is a huge problem, everybody should be free to follow their believes sure, but religions shouldn't be able to make claims that contradict human rights, health and mental health safety, personal freedoms, etc... I don't care about the Catholic church for example, the religion i grew up in, but that to this day they teach that self pleasuring for example will be punished by god if they don't repent and stop is a clearly trauma inducing behaviour that we wouldn't tolerate anywhere else. We have sex ed for a reason, so kids grow up in a safe environment and reducing traumas regarding sexual awakening, wich we have seen multiple times in this channel can be the trigger for plenty mental health problems in the future.
For me a family normalizing going to the temple several times, bringing the master in, wich works unregulated and not having once in the journey of the family descent to madness the mechanisms in place to seek medical health is the real problem here. It shouldn't matter if somebody has OCD, your teacher, your doctor, your spiritual guide, your family or your environment should be informed and be reponsible enough, even legaly binded, to try to detect that you may need help and ask you to seek a diagnosis. I mean I have no idea, but I imagine knowing you have OCD helps a lot in order to progress, no matter how superstitious or religious or not one is.
I was institutionalized in the mid 2000s for OCD. I have intrusive thought OCD and I did indeed suffer from a psychosis. I was convinced if I didn't do my counting bad things would happen to animals. I suffered from this as a child and carried in into adulthood and thought I was "bad inside" for having these awful intrusive thoughts, and because I never wanted to cause harm to any animal ever, I couldn't stop myself.
It took a lot of exposure and response therapy inpatient, in a controlled setting to begin to lower my anxiety level. It's a very difficult therapy to go through, as it actually stresses you out intentionally to show you over time you can survive not doing your compulsions, and that nothing will come of not doing them.
It also took a lot of behavioral therapy to talk through what was actually going on in my head. BECAUSE I loved animals so much is why my brain "stopped and stared" at my intrusive thoughts that bothered me. We all have intrusive thoughts, but with OCD you have more irregular thoughts like these that your brain "notices". To distract yourself from what bothered you, you feel compelled to counter act it with your "compulsions". Thinking these compulsions will stop whatever you are worried about is called "magical thinking". I wanted to stop these thoughts so bad, I limited what I exposed myself to and was near catatonic. But it really didn't help. I could look at a fork, and see a kitten being stabbed by a fork, so I would do things like counting dots in the wood and tell myself if I counted all of them, my cat wouldn't die. But I would always lose count eventually and think, 'I must be an awful person for putting my cats life at risk'. And my self esteem struggled immensely because I thought I was an awful person. I developed an eating disorder to take my thoughts off the OCD, which fit in perfectly with it because it was more numbers to count.
I'm medicated now to help control the intrusive thoughts, but now is I have them I just tell myself "it's your OCD, not you. " and I don't allow myself to get to the counting phase because it won't help anything.
Just my personal story I wanted to share, it might help someone realize they too are suffering. It took me MANY YEARS to find my personality outside identifying as a damaged, bad person. Only reason I had thoughts about animals is because I never wanted anything to happen to them; that's why those thoughts were what my brain focused on. Whatever bothers you is probably because it's the thing that upsets you the most.
My husband has religious ocd, it’s scary how easily he can get lost in it without his medication.

Their house was burned down, and their grandmother was placed in a psychiatric institution. The family continues to receive threats. Please share this situation to raise awareness and ensure justice is served
That's terrible why will anyone do that to 16 years old boy? Like what's is wrong with creatures these days...i hope the family is protect by god

I am beyond impressed at your ability to memorize these stories with thorough memory of details and then tell the story seemingly unscripted because I don’t see your eyes move. You’re very good at your job I’m impressed and envious!
I usually stay away from horror movie stories being real in any way but the way Stephanie tells stories just scratches my brain perfectly. So I shall listen....

In high school we had this teacher who’s a believer of feng shui. I can remember her saying that feng shui is also telling us practical things just interpreted differently. Like placing your bed in a certain direction for supposed positive energy. But if you think about it, it’s just suggesting to put your bed in that direction away from sunlight so it will not be so bright when you wake up.
The earth does have a magnetic field - wether that effects our lives who knows but at least there is some science to it
You know what so weird- when I was younger I couldn’t sleep with my feet pointing toward any known cemetery, so I’d move my bed
Did we have the same teacher? I had a professor who taught feng shui this way!
I don’t believe in it but if I sleep with my head facing North and my windows shut out with curtains and blinds I sleep like a baby. If I sleep any other direction….its not good sleep. Likewise even in the dead of winter black as night, if my window is not covered I will not sleep.
since painting my living rooms and kitchen yellow my family have become much more energized, positive, and financially blessed.
Even without looking for opportunities they fall in front of us.
Plants also brightened my home and gave it life
I don’t know but as long as they are positive changes, I’m down. 😊
There’s a TH-camr who actually makes shorts about Feng Shui that makes it fairly easy to understand. It’s basically better utilization of space and “flow of energy” in the room.
You don’t want your bed next to the door cause it’s where the most foot traffic happens, and can disturb a restful sleep. And if anyone were to break in, you’d at least want a bit of distance to react and get away. Which makes sense since Feng Shui was historically used extensively by the ancient Chinese noble class who had to be wary of assassinations.
i agree with both of you saying that it just spiraled into a psychosis, like a loop that they cannot get out of, once they believe one thing ( the dreams) they will just keep on continuing to believe other things and if they get even the slightest kind of a "proof" (something that they, as spiritual based people, believe to be a proof) they will just believe it more and more and mixing with the fear, they will go insane into the shared psychosis + the kids being surrounded by the "believes" from young age also adds to the story
This is why the environment in your home is a crucial thing to consider raising a child in. With the parents being extreme, they're bound to all go down in one path. It's like a disease passing down from one to another not until they try to get REAL help or try to help themselves to change for the better. What happened was that they spiraled into a circle of continuous paranoia about those dreams. It's like the circle of problems. The more u involve yourself in it, the more problems it will create instead of breaking it off. Like traumas. To move on you have to find a way to break the cycle. It's a really simple thing to understand yet they chose to make it more difficult because of those things they believe in.
I honestly am not too superstitious but I am very well religious and honestly you HAVE to put boundaries upon what you believe in because there's only much limit to smth you believe in. When you're too obsessed with smth, you will be bound to be attached to it and start to make it your whole life and what you believe in.
@@anetae This is yet another reason why religion (or just 'magical thinking' in general) is a danger to society.
This is so true. I witnessed this with my own eyes. It happened to my husband.

I stuck my fingers in my ears every time they played the chant and my boyfriend sang worship songs to drown out any sounds that filtered through. It was both a terrifying and hilarious experience. The movie was hella disturbing.
I legitimately turned off the movie for that reason lmao
volume ALL THE WAY down and covered my screen towards the end because I had the same fear of being cursed halfway through loll
Hahha my mind would chant it, but the religion ,and hand signal, chant everything was made up. It was inspired by this case tho.

29:54 there is an aunt from my mom's side of family, who got possessed by a goddess on some specific Thursdays. i have not met her but my mom tells stories that she can tell fortune of people on those days and can answer anything of past present and future. like steph said, she becomes a medium on those special days. her voice and demure also changes. the phenomenon is called "mata ana" in hindi.
i also have saw this "mata ana" in kali mandir/temple where a lady was crying and veiling loudly in front of the idol of kali, the people around started to play dhols and musical instrument loudly while her hair was a mess. people around her were standing around her like they are praying to her. my mom dragged me from the there coz i was small i and i may get scared.(i was visiting the village to see my mom's grandma on her last breath) i wanted to see more but mom dragged me. it said that the lady got "mata ana". i was small so i just remember the scene (everything started abruptly there). i would definately stayed to see and analyse what was going on if i ever witness that again. i wanna see if this "mata ana" is really a divine thing or that is something else. (but questioning religious stuff is risky business especially the phenomenon of mata ana when people are so firm believer) the incident happen in a village which now is turned into a semi urban area, and i have not visited the village for so long so idk if people there still a believer or not.

outside of feng shui, houses on t-junctions have a slightly higher odds of cars crashing into them compared the the houses next to them because there's a road leading straight to the house where drunk drivers and cars with broken brakes can go straight into.
so there is a practical reason as to why houses on t junctions are ever so slightly more dangerous to live in compared to neighbouring houses.
People can’t think of practical reasons and make up shit instead
Yeah, I wouldn’t want to live on a T-section specifically because of the car crash risk.

This really sounds like a case of schizophrenia which then caused a case of “mass hysteria” or more specifically “Folie à deux”- Shared delusional disorder (SDD). I think given this family’s very strong beliefs (beliefs none of the other family members would question either and believe right away), they created a perfect powder keg for the daughter’s schizophrenia to ignite.
This isn’t to say I don’t believe in the paranormal, I do, but I think this is the most rational answer in this case. Still very sad.
Edit: Oop just got to the part of the episode where she says the same. Also we know the rest of them didn’t have schizophrenia but that doesn’t mean the oldest didn’t because obviously she couldn’t be evaluated.
Also I saw the movie months ago and I’m fine, it was okay, not at all THAT scary. Worth the watch though. It’s probably still on Hulu for those interested in seeing it.
real🤚🏽i saw the movie a year ago nearly
it was good. not the scariest
OCD is also a possible assumption, albeit a lesser one. I also find it interesting that the eldest sister supposedly starts spiraling after a phone call. Either way, horribly sad case of overfeeding a shared delusion. Something hereditary bouncing off one another.

Can you do case of Dana Alatobi? She was of model and got murdered by her marine husband in Hawaii. She reported the abuse but military didn’t do anything instead they were harassing her
I hate seeing comments like this because I always think "she's already covered that" or "someone already has".. When actually, it's because similar things happen THAT often. Breaks my heart and makes me rage. 😢😢 I second this!
Military spouses being abusive is so scary, because they have so much social power, and they can have so much knowledge of torture sometimes

The moment you said they were very extreme in their beliefs, and that it would escalate, my thought was (shared) spiritual psychosis. I think now it might also have gotten worse because of the toxins or fumes of the incense, because they closed up all the ventilation too.
the reports also states that the shared spiritual psychosis got worst after they drank the talisment water from the priest they hired. They drank that talismans water for 30 days straight. Which usually is written using a red mineral ink that is slightly poisonous. Which can contribute to organ failure if not for the fecal matter found.
There are reports of kids dying of kidney failure and lead poisoning due to drinking talisment water.

i watched it with my sister in my old bedroom and my bed was directly in front of the door. Th way my door is built is that there is a 2 way mirror on it. In the morning i can see my living room from the inside of my bedroom but at night, if someone's in my living room, they can see the inside of my room and i can't see them looking. This was about 2 years ago i think and we were watching the movie on my bed cause that movie was weird af and trust me i don't get scared by horror movies. When the movie was over my sister and i heard a few sub tle knocks at the door. It stopped for a few minutes and it started again, knock knock knock. Needless to say we were scarred shitless. I screamed who is it? the door opened slowly accompanied with a creaking sound made by it. My sister and i got underneath the blanket and soon after a slow laughter emerged from the few moments of silence. i thought to myself that the voice was familiar so peeked to see who or what it was. IT WAS MY FUCKING BROTHER who thought it was a great idea to scare us. He saw us cuddled up watching a movie and knew we were watching a horror one by the expression we were making. I swear we literally thought we were fucked.
I dont think this case has anything to do with Hinduism 5:44 . I've been studying Hinduism as a Hindu myself. From what i understand, all the gods mentioned here has no relation to Hinduism. There are a number of followers of Hinduism that believe god can possess humans but for a short while to give their blessings & go. And its only happens in holy places like Temples NEVER in home or other places thats not holy. The people who are possessed are not really said to be a spiritual medium or anything. Theyre just normal people & they describe the experience as being in a trance like state. I've seen a lot of this stuff & think it is real & but we never know. The piercing body with needles is also followed by a very very small amount of people BUT they're not possessed by anything when they do it most of time. And they dont do it because the god said so but rather because that's what they offered in return for the gods fulfilling their wishes. Its not always extreme like body piercing sometimes they do it very simply like carrying milk pots to bath the statue of god in milk. Its all about what you can do. ITS NEVER ENCOURAGED AS WELL. They say they dont feel pain at all & heal real fast because what they're doing is for god & they take the pain away. All in all if u learn about true Hinduism rather than the Hinduism practiced today which i belive is not so right due to people forgetting the original goal which is to reach 'moksha' & break the endless cycle of birth & rebirth, u can say that its a religion that teaches nothing but good.Its the oldest religion for a reason. More than religion its a philosophy. Its beautiful and i hope people with recognize & appreciate Hinduism & take its good teachings even if they don't want to follow it. Its fun religion! If i made any mistake please do correct me. Thank you Stephanie :)
It’s great hearing Stephanie telling these stories but then I remember they’re real and get so so sad for the victims and family’s

hiii! Can you please talk about Seunghan’s case and how he’s been bullied by his own fans (they even sent him a thousand funeral wreaths to wish him death) and how his company allowed it forcing him to leave his group ?
@gretelcadiz That k netizens r worst people to exist fr
Personally I don't think it's fans, I think it's SM hiring fake ones. I have helped plan 3 weddings in the last 3 years, and let me tell you, florals are EXPENSIVE. That was thousands of dollars of flowers. Most kpop fans are under 25 and not rich. Who has enough disposable income at that age to spend a couple hundred bucks from the same florist buying matching flower arrangements, huh? And when did they all place those flowers around SM headquarters and why didn't security stop them, because that's super bad for pr so one would think they would stop fans and try to keep the anger online in fan circles, not the broader media out in the open. Because SM's stocks are down.
Seunghan is just SM's sacrificial lamb. He's a new idol, recently debuted, not a lot of fans, hasn't made SM a ton of money. They won't miss him.
NCT is SM's biggest boy group, that's their cash cow. After Johnny and Haechan's sex scandal, where they allegedly had a 5 some with fans in Japan, SM stock took a hit in June. (honestly we know how male celebrities will take advantage of young female fans, so even though SM claims it didn't happen, I am not 100% convinced).
Then Taeil's sex crimes (gang r*pe) come to light later in the summer (hmm seems nct has a problem with group sex...). There's too much proof, criminal charges with police have been filed. With Johnny amd Haechan the alledged fans did not file criminal charges with police, so it's easy for SM to just say "oh we investigated it and it's not true", and of course people don't want to think badly of their parasocial relationships so it doesn't take much to keep them from not wanting to consider the alternative.
SM's stock took another 8% hit after Taeil was charged.
SM has a pattern of getting the public involved with business matters the public cannot do anything about. They're a publicly traded company, and when Hybe bought the majority shares, the CEO of SM made an emotional video urging the public to protest the "hostile take over by Hybe who will ruin the integrity of our artists" (that's paraphrasing but you can look it up. It's very manipulative, worded so fans will feel they have to protect their idols from abuse. But wtf is an 18 fan gonna do? They can't buy out Hybe. SM isn't stupid, why did they really make that video? To control public image)
Getting fans to feel they need to protect Seinghan from other FANS, not the corporation, is a good way to keep the public talking about something other than the fact not one but 3 members of SM's most profitable boy group have bad major sex scandals, and commited crimes against women, this summer. So lets blame the crazy female fans for sending him funeral flowers, not the corporation that protects its idols from scandal so they can keep making them money 💰.
Big corporations highering fake protestors to skew public opinion isn't new. When an elderly women got 3rd degree burns because McDonalds kept their coffee too hot, and she sued just to cover her medical bills and the hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of skin grafts, McDonalds hired fake protesters to go out in the street with signs saying she was just a stupid greedy old lady making a frivolous lawsuit because she was too dumb to know coffee was hot. This is an old game out of the big corporation playbook

A collage in Lahore, pgc is covering the SA of a first year student (she allegedly passed not sure).Protests have been going on for the past days, it has became so bad that they were beating up students for protesting. The media isn’t taking this as seriously since the identity of the student and her parents remain anonymous.
Yes!!! Hope she covers this case
BOOSTING!!
Hoping she see this
boosting!
When I watched Incantation and saw ‘based on true events’ I REALLY wanted to know what the story was… as usual, Stephanie has my back 😂
Same😅
I saw you almost cry when you talked about the comfort women and i cried with you 😢 and now im looking at all youre videos i just love you,re empathic voice and you,re realness ❤
Living in a T junction house to me means bad drivers can drive straight into your home. I would never live in one.
As someone that’s not very religious (Christian background) but a bit spiritual, I believe everything is for a reason, even when the director said the chants are all fake, those chants still came from an inspiration
For example when Christian’s pray in tongues, to the unbeliever or someone that doesn’t understand what it means, it will sound like made up words or nonsense to their ears but it’s not nonsense because the person praying is under a certain inspiration, they believe they are speaking to angels
So when the writers are making up the words for the chants, they fully understand what they want the words to mean to people watching it and what the hidden message is, so that’s their own inspiration
Context: Taoist believes in 三魂七魄 which translates to 3 souls 7 senses. Hence its possible to lose 1 soul and still be alive. It is believe that if a person loses 1 soul for too long, that soul will no longer be able to return and will lead to the eventual death.
This case breaks my heart and freaks me out at the same time. The human mind is a crazy thing.
12:20 that must be burn marks of incense
I was going to make this comment too.
That’s what I thought too. Idk why she didn’t think of that.
@@DrewFishBlueFish she didn't notice maybe
@@DrewFishBlueFishShe said it in the video...
I love how her husband always pronounced chinese word correctly after Stephanie look at him with doe ayes
Stephanie is glowing these days, I love it
Recently a girl was raped in punjab college lahore pakistan by a college guard but the authorities of the college are pretending as if nothing of this sort has happened which is leading reason for students to do great protest all over the country. This is an on-going case and the only thing we want is justice. I hope you will for sure cover this case.
there has been a recent case of a girl getting assaulted in Punjab Group of colleges, lahore, Punjab. The college principal is treating to suspend and expel the student speaking up about it and protesting. it would be nice if u could cover it, it will help build pressure and bring up the issue on a more international level since they r suppressing it.
Hey, can you discuss the case about the orphanage owner who raped children under his care, aged 7 and above, for 18 years? There are about 20 victims. This case is truly heartbreaking, and I want more people to know about it so that it can continue to be monitored until one of the perpetrators, who fled with one of the orphanage children, is found. The case occurred in Indonesia, and while it is shameful, I hope and wish that everyone can help keep an eye on this case until the perpetrator is found! 🤬😭
I loved Taiwanese horror movie but this one Gabe me nightmares
I prayed for a whole week and now learning it based of a true story changes everything. I send my love to that family. 🥺💕
It's so crazy the amount of emotions/ expressions your hands show, they always catch my attention with how red they are! I'm so grateful for you covering the content you do! please keep it up
I swear 90% of these comments are bots. Not a single one discussing about the case and just praising Stephanie.
rite i was confused too
Hmmmm… Interesting theory. I haven’t thought of that 🤔
Probably bcs she just uploaded the video (?
I can see comments discussing the case, and cases to cover in the future, maybe people just really appreciate her content. Sounds odd but I use these videos to chill out, learn a story more chaotic than my own. I imagine quite alot of stephs viewers feel the same, no? X
Okay? As long as no one is being inappropriate or rude, I don’t see an issue. I just don’t understand the reason behind pointing that out.
As someone who had a horrible OCD episode late 2020, when you enter in that nightmare cycle, it takes a toll on you so fast. I couldn't sleep for almost a week, only taking small naps and waking up all anxious.
I'm not religious, so my answer to that was: I'm losing grasp on my anxiety; but I could see a religious person creating a whole mystical scenario as an explanation (This I don't mean it in an insulting way)
Many people think ocd is the cutesy thing about not liking even things, but when it's religious/thought ocd, you seriously start to believing the lies your brain created after going from thought A to thought B in ten minutes and you're convinced the world is crumbling down.
That's mostly my personal experience, so it's just anecdotal, but it feels like that. Many mental illnesses are genetic, so it'd not be that unheard-of.
The way she described the brith of the third prince I could only think about the birth of 100 Kauravs from Mahabharat
The birth is the same but then the rest of the story of the third prince is very different. It was said that the third prince wanted to protect his family and he was seen as a deity but the Kauravs were villains. They were evil.
"Marinating in the poop..." hahahaha excellent imagery!
Stephanie, please help us spread the word about Seunghan from RIIZE, who was bullied by antifans into leaving just two days after returning. The antis sent thousands of death wreaths and some are wishing him dead! What’s worse is thats his company sided the antis! If this keeps going on other idols will get affected. Idols should not be treated as robots. Please We really need your support!
Justice for seunghan
What is making a video about this on a true crime channel gonna do?
BRING BACK SEUNGHAN
BLAME SM who didnt have any teeth to keep Seunghan!!
@@dreamfyres many international netz watch this channel it will give them awareness about how pathetically Korea treats kpop idols
Watching this at 1 am was a mistake, especially when my friend accidentally called me while I was watching and that scared the crap out of me 😭😭😭
I'm watching at 3 am haha
Lol. I waited to watch in the daytime! 🫣
While I was watching my brother started tapping against the door. My heart nearly fell out of my ass 😭
@@zahraaakoo4802 🤣🤣🤣
I didn't know that it was based on true story, i remember watching it alone in my room, lights off, and whenever they chant the incantation I'd empty my brain because the vibe is way too off. It's not terrifying, but it was chilling, and creepy, they're like mentally unstable.
As someone with OCD who used to take antipsychotics for it as a kid… this sounds to me like if you put a whole family of mentally ill, suggestible people in an isolated environment with each other to escalate. If at any point while having an OCD breakdown my mom (thankfully a medical professional) had told me it was demons or that I was possessed-100% I would have believed it and could see something like this happening. I left the church for a lot of reasons, but one of them is that religion is a HUGE trigger for a lot of OCD sufferers. I’m not saying they specifically had to have OCD-but anything with a link to psychosis makes superstition and religion potentially harmful. I get really mad when people tell schizophrenia sufferers that their voices are demons, or somebody decides to try to push religious propaganda on me when I am at work and can’t walk away. It can really hurt people. There are a lot of kids out there desperately in need of real medical assistance that live under extremist roofs and it makes me really sad and scared for them.
This video kind of reminds of the case of Rina Yasutake. Shared delusions between her and the family resulting in her death, and they basically mummified her. The first time I've heard of this story was from Mr Ballen. I haven't seen any other people cover that story. I would love to see it on this channel. It really creeped me out
hey i wasn’t able to find Mr Ballen’s video on this. do u mind sending the link here?
Hey Stephanie! I was wondering if you would want to cover a case of school shooting in Prague, Czechia. It happened less than a year ago, but it still has a large impact on people living here. It was the first school schooting that has ever happened here. Thank you :)
I haven’t heard about this, I would also like to see her cover that
There's a form on their site to request videos
I've seen devotees like the spiritual mediums explained at 32:28 in my country a lot. but it still gives me chills to think how painful it is for normal people to do that.
I just found out about this channel. But im already obsessed with the way you speak en story tell. You gained a new follower
Hi Stephanie, I wanted to reach out to you and say that there has been a recent case in Pakistan, Lahore which has caused an outrage in the country. An assault/r@pe of a student has happened in PGC (punjab college Lahore) I’m not sure how much information is out there but it would be appreciated if you spread some awareness cause the college won’t do anything and the people need Justice.
Hope she can cover this case
i refuse to listen to any other podcast or channels that talk abt crime cases other than rotten mango legit the best ever
I claim no bad energy from this
Steph's voice, presence, her expressions and interaction with her husband make these stories far more interesting like...girl you found ur thing, you win
Here to watch another video while I (hopefully) get write and finish an essay to submit to college! I was hope Steph keeps up the great work with informing us about these cases and I hope her husband keeps asking all the right questions we were all thinking.
I’ll be back to comment once I finish the video!
Halfway through and I’ve been so locked in to this essay that I haven’t been listening 😭 I’ll be back to listen intently tomorrow while doing claywork
ALMOST DONE WRITING MY ESSAY! Thank you Mango for being great background noise! I promise to be an active listener tomorrow 🙏
I love doing my work while listening to Stephanie too 🎉
I was thinking the rice and salt on the floor was a sensory nightmare… and then I heard about the rest of it 😭
