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!

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...

Zombie Bikers From Detroit (2001)

Over the years, it has been shown that with very little money, a skillful director can put together a high quality horror movie (John Carpenter's " Halloween ", " The Blair Witch Project ", and " Paranormal Activity " being a few of them).  So, when it comes to determining a movie's quality, budget is no longer a negative... Ken and his mother have moved from Hell, Michigan to Grosse Pointe near Detroit.  Upon his arrival, he meets the lovely Courtney, and her jealous suitor Chad.  While Ken and Chad square off, an evil is growing within Detroit and slowly spreading towards Grosse Point... where Ken will meet his destiny ... This week's " What Movie Wednesday " winner was " Zombie Bikers From Detroit "- a low budget horror movie that feels like it was put together as a school project.  High School, or College... I can't really tell. The premise- as stated in my little synopsis is interesting- as was the title.  ...

The Black Castle (Les Daniels)

Vampires and witches are often a good basis for a horror novel.  Through in the Spanish Inquisition, and odds are you'll get a pretty good story. In 1496, while the Spanish Inquisition is in full motion, Diego  de Villanueva is seeking a way to rise through the ranks of the Inquistion.  He will do anything he needs to... even use his brother's darkest secrets and knowledge to bring fear and hatred to the world... " The Black Castle " caught my  eye while shopping at " The Book Place ".  I was intrigued by the idea of it taking place during the Spanish Inquisition.  While I did enjoy reading this book, I was also a little disappointed. The style is very fitting to the story- it has an almost old world charm and rythm to it that I found pleasing to the ear.  It's also easy to read, and flows at a nice pace.  While, it's not "fancy", the images it creates are fairly good and atmospheric. The story itself is a really interesting idea....
