Username 666
Classic and oldie internet video. An internet user tries to look at youtube account 666. I guess some things are better left untouched and unknown. Turn up the volume, turn off the lights, and enjoy this early viral sensation. Creepy/Scary/Disturbing Factor: 7/10
Dining Room or There is nothing
Made by a Dutch filmmaker, this video is both creepy and strangely existential. Meant to be watched in a looped format several times, it can quickly get under one’s skin and is thus one of my personal favorites. C/S/D Factor: 9/10
Crooked Rot
A little corny but strangely entrancing like Dining room. Most hate it but I like it because of its surrealistic style in the form of "Don’t Hug Me I’m Scared" …you be the judge. C/S/D Factor: 5.5
Transfiguration
Similar to crooked rot..but less corny and more disturbing. The jist of the video is a guy mutilating his face for the sake of art. Definitely prefer this one than crooked rot. C/S/D Factor: 8.5/10
Heaven's Gate Cult tapes
Heaven’s Gate Cult Initiation tape—real tape from a real cult leader. Oh, by the way, He and several dozen of his cult members committed suicide a little while later which I guess makes this video more creepy. C/S/D Factor: 5/10
Jared Loughner's Genocide School Rant Video
Kinda like the cult video. It’s always interesting seeing how these creeps and criminals thought before committing their crime. In this video, Jared walks around ranting about his school and life showing his disturbed nature. C/S/D Factor: 6.5/10 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bLYeSwMVg_0
911 Call of House Invasion
Pretty moving 911 dispatch of a women shooting an intruder in her house. The first 10 minutes shows a whole variety of emotions including fear, anger, and sympathy ultimately climaxing in soft sounding gunshots and an anguished caller. C/S/D Factor: 7.5/10 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o_bhp-_e_D8
Unedited Footage of a Grizzly Bear
Though made for adult swim’s show on tv, it was later posted by adult swim’s youtube account for internet consumption. A strikingly effective condemnation of corporate pharmaceutical drugs and the dangerous side effects many of them contain. Visit the fake website embedded in the video and read the fine print on the bottom for an extra creepiness factor. C/S/D Factor: 7/10 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2gMjJNGg9Z8
Elisa Lam Elevator Footage
Thanks to several wonderful posts by imgurians, many of you are familiar with Elisa Lam. If you don’t know who she is, then google her name. I felt obligated in sharing the video footage of Elisa before her disappearance and death. C/S/D Factor: 8/10 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JQcTuTXpj3c
Lost Man in Paris Catacombs
Commentary on footage found in a camera found in the catacombs. Not much else to say about this one. C/S/D Factor: 6/10 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-bmJuwqvV6M
Ghost Girl Crying
There are tons of stupid ghost videos but a few gems as well. This one is my personal favorite. Brief and to the point, the execution is a little sloppy but fun none the less. C/S/D Factor: 7/10 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5ytF0_8mcVQ update: did a few more hours of research, and found that the paris catacombs video was a subject of some syfy original documentary. The film maker decides to go searching for clues to see if the man had lived or perished...He concludes (though a little too superstitious in my opinion) that the man had found the "gate of hell," or in other words, was an amateur who wandered down the wrong corridor, got lost, panicked, and most likely died in the dark from want of resources. Here is one source I used to further conduct my research. It is an expansion of the previous video i posted. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wkiaJDtt4II update 2: I'm a fan (in the sense that I appreciate the disturbing nature of the content) of the transfiguration video. The subject and creator of the video is an artist who have multiple videos circulating the world wide web. I stumbled upon another one of his more recent videos and quite honestly I got shivers and was more than just disturbed....here is the link to it. Its called Samsara Office man. C/S/D: 9/10 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dTuvmQNiO3w Update 3: thanks for all the feedback (positive and negative). Also, all the other videos you rascally imgurians keep posting have made my skin crawl. Kudos to all of you. Perhaps, a second list is in order though i want to make sure to find more good sources so it may take awhile. Update 4: Currently making a new list which I will release this Sunday Afternoon (maybe sooner depending on my schedule). If any imgurians want to contribute, just message me the link and a description. Cheers
