Ask HN: What's the most compelling paranormal evidence you found online?

3•johnnyfived•1h ago
Interested to see what this community might come up with, or whether it gets instantly trashed on for being too whimsical of a question. I don't mean aliens or UFOs necessarily, but more ghosts, hauntings, skinwalkers, Missing 411, Bigfoot, and other sorts of entities that are of Earth but not earthly by our understanding. Do you think there exists phenomena that can't be explained by our current knowledge of creatures, humans, and science?

Years ago I stumbled upon this channel: https://www.youtube.com/@ghostsofcarmelmaine451 which is a bit notorious already on Reddit and other paranormal threads but has always been on the obscure side. Even with a TV show feature they had, though I haven't seen any clips of it or know where you can watch it: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt32872957/.

There's a lot of noise but there was one video in particular that was unlisted and is currently removed entitled "DAYMARES", which contains some of the most interesting footage or paranormal entities I've ever seen.

DAYMARES features 10 if not 20 minutes (I forget) compiled of the craziest footage Ken's captured in his home. An actual very visible entity figure darting out a second-story window that looks human but not quite moving at inhuman speeds. A "shadow" face on a wall mouthing words and making expressions, talking to Ken, which he called "Shadow Dude". Another shadow face peeping out at the top of the stairs with a blurred expression, then knocking over the set-up camera. Visual sightings of entities that look completely seamless (yes it's not high-res, high-def footage, which makes it easier to fake) and very clear recordings of the action. If you watched it with an open mind, you would genuinely be stunned.

The visual evidence showed in this channel's (Ghosts of Carmel Maine) YouTube is so insane to me, with practical and visual effects that could rival some of the top studios working today (if it was faked!). But the way these videos are presented and edited, Ken clearly is quite amateur at videography and editing skills, with a possible but unlikely explanation being it's purposefully done to throw viewers off from the high-end editing done in videos like DAYMARES but I find this unlikely.

Did anyone catch it, and back it up and can share a link? I emailed Ken multiple times even offering a donation, but got no response. I assume they got busy with life and circumstances; the last upload was 2 years ago. Some TikTokers have uploaded edits with images but it's like no one even bothered watching that video fully cause that genuinely had some of the most interesting clips you could find online that aren't documented anywhere with visuals now.

Nothing. Being online has convinced me there's no such category as "paranormal".
