Halloween Day by Day: Top Five YouTube Channels With Scary Videos


The internet is a marvelous and terrifying place at times.  One of those places that is both awesome and at times scary is YouTube.  In addition to theatrical horror movies, I really enjoy watching "real life" ghost videos on YouTube.  As such, I have a few channels I subscribe to that showcases a variety of scary videos- either ghost, urban exploration, cryptid, etc.

Below, you'll find my "Top Five YouTube Channels With Scary Videos"!

This is one of my favorite channels.  They showcase a broad range of videos from ghost all the way to cryptids.  The lengths of the videos are generally just long enough to be enjoyable without dragging on unnecessarily.

The narration is also very good as well.  Suitably professional without being over the top.  It has a nice flow and pacing to it as well.  It fits well with the type of video, and isn't annoying or distracting.

I certainly recommend you check it out here:  Nuke's Top 5.


Another good channel with also cover a wide range of video subjects.  Like to above channel, Sir Spooks tends to post videos that are just long enough to be satisfying, while leaving you with just a bit of hunger for more.  I often find myself working my way through their playlists in the late hours of the night.

He's got a wonderfully eerie voice for the narrations.  It helps to set a proper sense of unease while watching the videos in the dark.

Check out Sir Spooks here.


Lutch Green isn't a channel that does "Top Five" type videos- each video covers one particular case or event in depth.  They're a decent length, and manages to fit a lot of good information into each video- while also having a wonderful mood to them as well.  Very professionally done.

Lutch has a wonderful voice that is both atmospheric and professional- a great balance for a more informational video of this nature.

Check her channel out here:  Lutch Green.

This channel covers topics that are more mysterious than plainly supernatural.  Some of the best ones are ones that cover mysterious unsolved crimes.  Like the others on this list, the videos aren't too long or too short.

The narrator does often sound like they're reading from a script, but they still have an amazingly and suitably sober and eerie voice.  A very professional voice that reflects the mood of the particular video.

Check out Mysterious 5 here.

I must confess that Slapped Ham isn't as good as the others on this list in my opinion.  It feels just a touch over-produced to me at times.  Despite this, it is an entertaining channel just for the videos it showcases.

The narrator, Cal, has a decent voice- though it can be a touch distracting from the general mood of the videos being shown.

So, there you have it- my "Top Five YouTube Channels With Scary Videos".  Check them out!

Grave Questions: Jessica Cameron

February is " Women in Horror Month "- a month in which to celebrate the impact that women have had on the genre and the industry- from writing, to acting, to directing and producing. Jessica Cameron has experienced the industry in all those capacity- making her a perfect choice for me to ask some " Grave Questions " of in order to raise awareness of the great women in Horror. Please not that this article SHOULD'VE been posted in February, but due to technical difficulties, we're putting it up now.  Thank you. TCoT :   Which female horror stars helped to inspire you to not only enjoy the genre- but to get involved in bringing scary movies to the world? Jessica :  I literally said to my " Truth or Dare " producer, "If the Soska sisters can make " Dead Hooker in a Trunk " with nothing, then I can make " Truth or Dare ".  So needless to say that those girls have been a huge inspiration in everything I do behind the

Meridian: Kiss of the Beast (1990)

Sometimes, a director/producer will surprise you- such was the case during " Terrorpolooza 2012 " when I watched Charles Band's " Meridian: Kiss of the Beast " Catherine Bomarzini has come home after her father's death.  Needing company, she asks Gina to stay with her.  Soon, the two meet a wondering troupe of performers that Catherine invites to dinner at her castle. Catherine find herself pulled into a love triangle and an ancient curse that only she can break. After watching movies like " Evil Bong ", and " Demonic Toys ", I really wasn't expecting too much from this Charles Band movie- but I was pleasantly surprised by it. The story is actually quite interesting with lots of potential for eerie scenes, and character development.  It's a nice twist on the classic " Beauty and the Beast " story.  It's a bit slower than most of Band's other works, but moves smoothly and draws you with it. I have to ad

The Phantom of the Opera

  Not too long ago, I reviewed the silent horror classic, "Nosferatu: A Symphony of Horror", and wound up being in the mood to view a few other of the silent horror films in my collection.  The next one I watched was "The Phantom of the Opera", starring Lon Chaney, Sr, and released in 1925.   A mysterious stranger has been threatening the star singer of the Paris Opera House- someone who has signs his letters simply as, "The Phantom".  This stranger wants to clear the way so his protege, Christine Daae can ascend to stardom herself.  Soon, her love for the Comte de Chagny collides with The Phantom's desire for Christine forcing both to take drastic actions in order to be with the one they love. " The Phantom of the Opera " actually underwent three periods of re-shoots and editing, due to poor reception and test viewings.  In 1930, a sound version was created- often assumed to be what is called "The Eastman House Print".  It is
