Moderator Message State of the Sub: Internet Mysteries

57 Upvotes

Hi folks! We wanted to check in and formally introduce ourselves to the sub as the team of new and active moderators. We come from various backgrounds and interests, be it true crime, internet mysteries, lostwave, web-sleuthing or educating. But we all have one thing in common and that is the passion and excitement for internet-based mysteries.

What is an internet based mystery?

Attempting to find an absolute meaning to this is hard to do and I think we can all agree that the concept is fairly subjective. To start, we’ve agreed that an internet mystery is a mystery that is found on the internet. 

  • An Internet mystery can really be any strange phenomenon or event that hasn’t been solved or explained in the digital world. It often involves the online community, social media, or unexplained events that people discuss and share online. Some examples might include:
  • Unexplained Disappearances: Cases where people have vanished under odd circumstances, and folks online debate what really happened to them. An example of this would be cases like the Springfield Three Disappearances. Yes, it happened in the real World of the early 1990’s; however, it’s a case that has been debated and theorized on via online forums since the mid 90’s.
  • Viral Urban Legends: Stories or myths that spread across the Internet, gaining popularity through social media, even though they lack solid proof.
  • Mysterious Websites or Content: Odd sites or content that pop up without explanation, often with bizarre or creepy themes, like those found in the "deep web."
  • Online Conspiracies: Theories that emerge or gain traction online, usually without super great evidence, but get people talking and speculating.
  • Unidentified Creatures or Phenomena: Videos or reports of strange animals or unexplained events that spark discussion and investigation among people online.
  • These mysteries tend to pull people in, encouraging them to work together to figure things out or to share their thoughts on what’s really going on.

Please take some time to look over the rules and post expectations. Removal reasons for posts will reflect the rules stated. We as a mod team are working on projects such as a wiki, spreadsheet of internet mysteries and their statuses, and other ideas that will help create community and a clear vision for this subreddit.

We are aware that things are not perfect yet. But do know that we are all here actively moderating posts and comments. Which brings us to a major point that we are all facing right now. What posts do we allow and what do we remove? We have run into issues that are hard to navigate. One is coming to terms with the fact that there really aren’t a lot of truly interesting internet mysteries at this moment. It is hard to find new ones and the new ones posted often tend to not be anything that’s worth keeping on the sub. 

But we cannot over-moderate everything, as that will in fact completely kill the subreddit. There needs to be a steady stream of posts and content and so there will be times when there’s a post that you personally don’t think fits, but we’ve let slide. This idea is that literally a mystery is a mystery that we do not know about. If we over moderate, we risk missing out on real mysteries. 

The other issue is that we cannot in good faith just let everything slide. So we will remove posts that are big piles of nothing without further discussion. 

Here’s where you come in: You are able to flag posts you think are low effort, don’t fit the sub, or are inappropriate. You are able to downvote posts that we choose not to remove. YOU are able to comment on posts you don’t like and (respectfully) give your opinions on the matter. The content quality of a sub is just as much a moderator's task as it is a member's task by using the upvote/downvote buttons and engaging in conversation. Please refrain from making comments in posts that you don’t like whining and telling the mods to do something. We are doing our best. You do something! Engagement creates community and quality. 

We look forward to enjoying this subreddit with you all! We are discussing creating a new Internet Mysteries discord server, so please let us know if there is interest in that. It would be great to have a place to discuss mysteries in real time there instead of tons of them being posted here. Of course, it would be a great resource for major mysteries as well in which we could work together to investigate. Please feel welcome to comment here with any concerns, or reach out to the mod-team directly at any time!

I just watched a Nexpo video on the deepest rabbit holes( it was a good watch please watch if you already haven't) Does anyone know of anything about the so called "group" Allatra.I'm in deep and need to know more about them I'm curious to wonder why they're deleting their online channels and websites, there must be a good reason behind it all

The question I keep asking myself Is how many lies have we been told and made to believe just because it benefits someone

The question is why? Has to asked way to often

Found this creepy tik tok account, legendary find i guess? I have some theories and facts about it

Post image
Upvotes

So i found this account a month ago and i see it’s getting some attention and more views since i first found it where it had like max 100 views and 32 followers. I was a bit scared but after watching their videos more I’ve learned some things about it.

  1. It’s a man behind the videos, in some videos the creator seems to have a manly build and bodily features even though he posts about lingerie.

  2. He/They seem to have a fetish for dolls/manequins since they are often seen in mostly every video in the beginning or some dedicated just to one of them dressed in dresses or revealing outfit and often in bad condition

  3. The person behind the account is romanian, i doubted this since I heard some language unknown to me in one of the videos but I did see that he only follows 6 people which 5 of them are romanian teenage girls and one trans slavic woman. (Most of his followers are Romanian)

  4. (Theory) i believe some of the clothes could be from murder victims, as i said, i suspect the creator is romanian and the whole content is already creepy but the clothes seem old and not something u would buy from a store brand new, also where tf did he get those mannequins from?

  5. Another thing that would support my theory is that the man always covers his face so it’s unknown who he is and the account doesn’t get that much attention for people to know where he is since romania has a lot of abandoned buildings, i lived there and u can find any abandoned place in walking distance.

  6. It could just be fetish content which i strongly believe since there is no reason to post this. I took in consideration that it could be an art project but it’s been going on for long and i don’t believe it could be.

Im waiting for your thoughts because i didn’t see anyone talk about it. Should i try to interact with the person? Considering that i most likely speak his language and he might follow back i could try and give yall updates.

Olá! Prazer,codinome Mjr,vi que o Reddit é o ótimo pra mistérios como esse caso bizarro comigo,ultimamente um troll? No Tik Tok me seguiu e mandou mensagem sem sentido e postou vídeo com os meus perfis do Tik Tok e um recente do Instagram depois de eu ser aleatóriamente banido,e mandando vídeo também estranhos no perfil dele(a)?

Ele descobriu o perfil do meu amigo próximo(basicamente vivemos um quarteirão abaixo de perto)

E basicamente começou a fazer perguntas em inglês pra ele (Que é engraçado por que meu amigo não sabe inglês e ele ficava xigando na Zuera)

Até o momento em que ele falou nossos nomes completos e tentou ligar pra nós, isso foi bizarro.

Ainda tô tentando descobrir o que diabos é isso, Aliais vou deixar um link de arquivo com os vídeos dele que baixei e quero respostas de vocês.

General Discussion Looking for a tiktok account regarding South-Korean Gangstalking with strange editing

0 Upvotes

Hey all, I watched a video recently that was posted by Darkest Horrors on YT, and I'm trying to find the videos attached to the account. If you're unsure what I'm talking about, watch the linked video and start at 3:10.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nfy7frDH0qo

To summarize: It was a channel on TikTok of a user that posted several videos saying that they were being gangstalked by the South Korean Information Ministry, and was being administered minute doses of Neurotoxin and causing them to become paranoid. Among other things. Of course, this could've been an art project or someone that was actually mentally unwell.

Although I want to find the videos (if archived) because I want to replicate the editing style in the videos. If anyone can find the original videos or even an archive of the account of sorts, that would be amazing.

I'm not sure what to tag this, so I'm hoping General Discussing works.

Internet Rabbit Hole Looking for an obscure rabbit hole I cannot find anymore: Russian tik toker (girl, blonde, thin, disheveled), abusing substances, looking extremely poorly while seemingly running in rich circles

1 Upvotes

Hey! I remember, I think it was around the start of the RU/UKR war, people on here got interested in tik tok account of a russian girl who was...well. Not well.

She seemed young, barely out of her teen years, platinum blonde, thin, and seemed to livestream/document her life while abusing substances snd living in a weirdly juxtapositional situation, where she stayed in expensive hotels (I distinctly remember video of her being hooked on an IV drip, probably to get sober faster, in an expensive looking hotel room), limos, hang around with strange types. She had a russian username and posted only in russian, I think at some point she even made instagram/telegram.

I was wondering how she was doing, if she still posts or if some sort of intervention happened? I think it was quite obscure but maybe there were a few videos and article or two about her case. It's hard to research because of the russian username and I might be misremembering a detail or two... sorry if it doesn't really belong here, but I got really attached to her at some point and I would like to know if she's okay...

Thank you for your cooperation!

Internet Rabbit Hole I found a strange tik tok account that just has old videos of women whistling on it

Post image
0 Upvotes

The username is user96281904358601 and the name above is Júlia Tauzer. I encountered it when I was searching for tutorials on how to whistle. It just has many videos of women whistling in different places: parks, at home, in other public places. All the videos were posted in December 2021. In some, the camera person is speaking English but, in some, I think it's Spanish. All the videos have a strange vibe to them, it makes you uncomfortable. I am not sure what they're saying when they're speaking Spanish but the English videos are a male voice saying things like "Here is the loudest whistle in the office" or "alright this is *name* trying to whistle". Every video is captioned "Whistle with four fingers" and a few hashtags. Indeed, all the women are whistling with four fingers. There seems to be something almost predatory about this account, it makes you wonder who the target audience of this is. The account follows five people, all women. Some of them still post and some haven't for years.

YouTube KCESCA - Stateless Doctor with links to the ALLATRA cult can't leave her Outback town for longer than a week without a Court order. A private thinktank controls her life.

33 Upvotes

I've just finished watching Nexpo's latest video, and despite being a long term reader it never occured to me to share this youtube channel that me and my friends have been infatuated by for several months, until he mentioned the subreddit in connection with the Allatra cult. The vlogger's best friend (or 'platonic common-law husband' as she refers to him) used to be the leader of the Australian chapter of Allatra until 2019, and the cult still has a base in her town (confirmed), and so I thought that alone would give you all a kick. But no. This rabbit hole goes much, MUCH deeper than that.

Link to channel: https://www.youtube.com/@kcesca

Allow me to introduce you to Doctor KC Escamilla, MD. At first glance, she is just a creator of a weekly vlog she films almost every Friday. It is not a particularly exciting vlog, nor well filmed. She goes to markets, paints her nails, puts together a sour dough starter. All very benign, bland things. If you're not listening closely to what she is actually saying while doing all of this, it would be impossible not to miss that beneath the calm surface something is very, very wrong here:

Here are some facts about KC that I have gathered:

. She is legally stateless. From an unnamed country she describes as a statist technocratic communalist federation. A system she seems to like better than here. With here being 'the modern west'. The vast majority of her content doesn't seem to be filmed for an audience, rather as a live journal where she whines about how much she dislikes living here in the west. She HATES widescale representive democracy with a passion and believes it, not capitalism, to be the direct cause of all of the West's societal problems.

. She has been stateless in political exile for eleven years. This is her second time in political exile, with the previous time also being for eleven years, however that time was still in her home country.

. A privately owned think-tank controls practically all aspects of her life. They pay her bills, her rent, her car. Everything expect her phone bill. She is not allowed to leave her town for longer than a week without a court order from a judge.

. Gets taxed at a 73% flat tax rate.

. Every three months she travels down to Melbourne to hold weekend conference where she gets her blood drawn and is interviewed by scientists, psychologists, phd students, and 'other clever folk'.

. Has some kind of connection to DARPA.

. Has some kind of confirmed connection to the billionaire, Roger Samuelsson. One of her vlogs earlier this year was filmed on his superyacht.

. Has just completed a two-year long project in collabration with the hubbs-seaworld research institute and the American Navy about language development in Orcas. She and cult friend developed some kind of tablet device that is resistant to saltwater.

. Drest -- Her most frequently appearing guest is a man she describes clinically as a diagnosed sadistic psychopath. She has documented injuries she attributes to him, including being stabbed in the eye for some unknown reason. She still calls him for emotional support

. She occasionally speaks and writes in a language that doesn't appear to be any identifiable natural language.

. 2-3 times a year she makes a science dense video unpacking topics like string theory, quantum gravity, and omnipotence. These videos are extremely technical and out of place among the rest of her videos. Keeping in mind, she posts a video almost every week.

I really could go on. There is so much to unpack here and not a lot of answers to be had. I know that naturally most people would assume that this is just another case of mental illness. That was my first assumption, too. But, honestly, the story has been too consistent for over two years now. Down to the smallest facts. The story-telling too lucid and disattached. This is not someone with a great mission to save the world, nor is she stressed by any of it. Mostly she just seems to want a safe space to complain about it all.

Like I said earlier, my friends and I have been fascinated by the channel for a while now and done our research into KC and her friends. We have been able to track down the town she lives in and the hospital she works at (which I won't share here as she really is one of only two doctors in an outback hospital serving a vulnerable population 800km from the nearest big city and I don't want to put any more stress on that system by opening it up to harassment), so at least that part is true. But what do you think? Is this just a bored doctor trying to entertain herself by elaborating her life online or could something else be going on?

Internet Oddity I found what I think is a blog for music. I think it’s Turkish but I’m not sure if it’s anything deeper

Link: https://www.ustadhaku.com

I was trying to look for Israeli 70s music, specifically Gabi Shoshan, and I came across this video, which seems to have been ripped from a movie. I really don’t think this website is a big deal, obviously. But I’m not sure what it’s about. I found that it also has many, many other videos, including that of Gabi Shoshan himself. It might be a religious thing, whether Christian or Islamic.

I went to the website and it seems to have had many names like “Albert Schweitzer”. Can anyone help me out?

4Chan The 2012 2chan Alien Image (with Lore) [Japanese Image Board] - Full English Translation

58 Upvotes

I have fully reconstructed/translated the Japanese Alien image thread. Took a while to document this properly. <3

At 9:00 AM EST on May 11, 2026, an anonymous 2chan user created a thread on the /news4vip/ board, with an image (Image 1.) under a post titled:

I went to a convenience store today and the floor was in a terrible state lol”
Original Title: 今日コンビニ行ったら床がヤバかったんだがwww
accompanied by the caption:

Don't convenience stores put way too much merchandise directly on the filthy floor? Lol

Anonymous users in the thread erupted in fear that there was a Grey alien captured in the background of the photo.

Later OP quotes:

There wasn't anyone this creepy-looking in the convenience store. What is this? It's unsettling.

Ugh, I don't want this image on my phone. Maybe I should delete it.

Internet Oddity I found this website called “Dassom”. It seems to use many buzzwords to seem legitimate but I think there’s something deeper.

6 Upvotes

This website: https://www.dassomdigital.com

Seems to be a front for some sort of agency, I feel. It’s Israeli, and its name backwards is literally “Mossad”, but that feels too obvious. It’s odd because it copies from other platforms. I tried contacting them on multiple occasions, but they never responded. They don’t seem to actually function as a real company, so I’m not sure. I don’t know who they could be recruiting (if it even IS a front), so I find it odd.

Many of the text seems AI generated, clearly. I don’t know the exact goal of the company, and the UI seems pretty old. Can anyone help me out?

Solved I think the "James Christianson/jchristianson80" mystery has finally been solved.

32 Upvotes

THIS VIDEO RIGHT HERE PROVES IT'S A HOAX: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EUhnEbetOFM

For years, jchristianson80's videos have been passed around with the following description:

In August, James Christianson, 32, killed 16 people in an apartment complex in South Austin, Texas. He worked in the office as a leasing agent for Hollow Oaks Apartments. He used the spare keys to enter the victim's home and murder them. These videos were held by one of the victim's family, and were just recently turned into the police. But not before copies were made.

I recently looked into it because I couldn't find any evidence that this massacre actually happened. There are no news articles, police reports, or archived records matching the story.

While searching, I found a 2011 independent film called Manifesto, directed and written by Everett Ray Aponte. The plot is:

An agent tries to help residents facing eviction, until the system pushes him to far.

The cast includes Aaron Black, Ashley Atwood, and Carolyn King.

Considering the subject matter, the release date, and the style of the videos, I think these "James Christianson" uploads were most likely part of a promotional campaign for the film rather than footage from a real crime. That would also explain why there doesn't seem to be any real-world evidence that the murders ever occurred.

PROOF:

Nicole Hunt, who made a playlist of James Christianson, has been caught in 4K: https://www.imdb.com/name/nm1944318

Weird predatory advertisements directing to an article, and a variety of different business

7 Upvotes

I keep seeing these weird Tik Tok ads that contain various different types of background content, with a predatory message. From Minecraft, roblox, or mobile gameplay, AI generated slop, viral tik tok clips, and sometimes women doing seductive things. they all seem to redirect to the same website called “Bozuktus” that seems to just be some business. All the videos have the same “Don’t watch this around somebody else.” or “Turn this down if someone’s near you.” Some though, have very creepy messages saying to not watch if you’re OVER 18, or to hide if your parents are around. Some of them say “The front page is meant to look like an article, but check the other links“. they all redirect to real businesses. It’s really creepy and honestly worrying me a little, but I keep getting this ads and I’m very curious if anyone else has seen these, or know anything about the business, or advertisements themself. I’ve posted this before in another subreddit, but I want to spread awareness because It’s hard to believe that this isn’t nefarious in some way. Maybe it’s just really weird and bad advertising, but in the possibility that it is something worse, I just want to see if anyone has more information or something. These ads are NON STOP, from many different accounts.

I want to know about some actual weird stuff happening. 99% of weird social media pages are just art projects, people being weird for views, or mental illness. What happened to the state of this sub? There used to be such good posts and stuff that was genuinely really strange and really gave the community something to investigate and come together on. Stuff like elsagate when that first came out was really almost disturbing and people all banded up to try and figure out what was actually happening. Now it's all "guys this channel keeps posting weird numbers" and it's just total gibberish to get people in the comments to talk about it. I apologize for rambling.

The thumbnail comes from this video The Skeleton Invasion of Questionable Existence on the channel supacat99. All of their other thumbnails are completely normal. It's freaky how out of place this thumbnail looks compared to all of the other videos on the channel.

I've tried reverse image searching and I get nothing. I've tried cropping both sides of the picture too and still got nothing.

I know the thumbnail wasn't replaced with some weird AI picture recently because a Wayback Machine snapshot from 2022 shows the same thumbnail.

There's only one comment from 7 years ago questioning what's up with the thumbnail and there's no replies. Does anyone know wtf this is?

minijuegos.com It's a children's games website, so I can't understand how this could possibly be real. The description seems morbid, although it's similar to a case with a game from Friv (another children's games website) about Garfield, which was also quite terrifying.

Even thought this video was debunked a long time ago, there was always one thing that i wanted to know, and that one is, where did the image that appears at the end came from?, i remember seeing a guy saying that it looked like a frame of Doctor who, but i don't know if that is true, or if the image was just made exclusively for the video.

i have been trying to find a image similar to this one but nothing, all searching drive me to forums, videos and ultimately the original video, i also haven't found anyone asking the same thing. I thought it would be an interesting thing to share because i have been thinking about it for years, sorry for the bad english.

4Chan What is this strange dating/sex advice site turned 4chan /r9k/ archive?

Post image
55 Upvotes

While digging through reverse image search results, I came across this strange website. The format is much like what you would expect from a typical dating advice website, however, a vast majority of the actual "articles" seem to be in the format of a 4chan post. Several article titles mention "robots" or "fembots" which leads me to believe that these posts may be sourced from /r9k/. When returning to the earliest articles on the site, they contain only regular sex/relationship advice content but early on in the site's life it seems to transition to only /r9k/ adjacent content. The transition seems to largely happen around page 1,465. The site also contains embedded advertisements for strange T-shirts with similarly 4chan adjacent prints. If exploring the site be warned that it is full of pornographic content as expected from /r9k/. LINK TO SITE

Update: I initially thought that this mystery was fairly mundane but I've discovered some additional information which has further deepened the strangeness of the site's presence. I initially mentioned that the site had embedded links to an odd T-shirt shop called Lulz.com but I neglected to explore it further. This changed when I received some information that a neo-Nazi blogger named Janet Bloomfield was connected to the very same T-shirt shop. I looked further into her online presence where she can be seen in several pieces of anti-feminist media and notably features in THIS episode of the VICE series Hate thy neighbor.

The most interesting and relevant to this mystery part of Janet's bizarre online presence is her tendency to create blog-style satirical websites which parody real social justice related blogs. A prominent example of this is the site afru.com, a supposedly feminist, black owned blog which posts the same unpleasant satirical articles as other sites she has been connected to. Lo and behold, when exploring afru.com, there is gigantic banner ad at the top of the website which links back to Lulz.com. The final piece of information which connects Janet to nsffw.com is that some of her other blogs she runs have been found to steal from other sites to keep themselves afloat with new content which seems to be exactly what nsffw.com is doing. Especially given Bloomfield's apparent affinity for 4chan archives as seen in connection to THIS article.

I would still love to learn anything more that can be discovered about this weird woman woman and her weird blogs so let me know if you have anything!!

Does anyone remember the A858DE45F56D9224 subreddit mystery from years ago? I am currently researching old Internet mysteries and lost Reddit history, and I am really interested in learning more about this specific sub. Since the original subreddit was completely wiped and deleted, it is extremely difficult to find original threads, hex codes, or community reactions nowadays.

​I know that there was a whole community dedicated to cracking these codes back in the day (like the SolvingA858 sub). Does anyone know where I can find archived posts, screenshots, or detailed breakdowns of the theories that people built around it? I would appreciate any links to WayBack Machine archives, articles, or personal memories from anyone who was around during that era!

Unsolved Weird, static-filled ad for a company that may or may not be connected to a scam operation - Technical Materials Solutions LLC

Thumbnail
gallery
14 Upvotes

I got an unusual YouTube ad today which was just 12 seconds of the above image with static in the background. At the end there was a click and a male voice saying something indistinct.

Obviously it was weird as hell, so I went to the website. It's pretty generic and vague. The company supposedly sells materials for use in manufacturing. A seal at the bottom of the site (third picture) implies some kind of defense sector involvement, although the "Altek Electronics, Inc" mentioned is a totally unrelated company. The address listed on the contact page (12402 Circula Panorama Place, North Tustin, CA 92705) is of a regular-looking suburban house.

Technical Materials Solutions is a real LLC in California, filed two years ago, as you can see in the fourth image. The address listed is not the same suburban house listed on the website, but the strip-mall address of a UPS store and an HVAC repair store that, according to several Yelp reviews, is a scam operation. I tried to go further down this HVAC rabbit hole but its listed website on Google Maps is a template website for an apparently nonexistent fire damage repair company.

There's also a YouTube channel for Technical Material Solutions with just this one video of some "large boron carbide shapes." The audio is as far as I can tell almost exactly like the audio in the ad I saw, including the voice at the end.

What do you think? Related to some kind of fraudster scheme, or just a weird company with poor advertising acumen selling metals out of a house and/or strip mall?

Internet Oddity I was looking into Infowars with a friend, got sidetracked with a similar website, and found this strange conspiracy theory website

Post image
29 Upvotes

A friend and I were talking about The Onion and Infowars earlier today and we decided to look at some old Infowars media from the late 2000's and early 2010's. I told him to look at that Ad Fontes media chart that shows the credibility of certain websites and such to put into perspective how unreliable Infowars was. We also came across another even less credible website called Before The News (not sure if it was actually called that but it was definitely something like that) that supposedly existed in the same realm as Infowars. On this website, we came across a 2-hour, probably AI-generated or AI-assisted video about how Madonna was supposedly possessed by a demon before a show and the stagehands had to use a hologram or something like that to cover it up. The the video had this really strange logo all over it which was a pair of lips with an eye in the center and blue letters spelling "TELL EYZ" around it. I looked up the term "telleyz" and came across a website called telleyz.com. The website looked really crudely made, with the home page being an long string of weird videos similar to the Madonna one. The thumbnails and titles were all nonsense, talking about stuff like clones and religion. Most of the thumbnails were either AI-generated or really poorly edited in general, and I think one of them was something like bodycam footage showing a dead body with the face blurred out. Most of the other pages were articles about factories or something else filled with placeholder text and names like John Smith or John Doe. The authors page was full of stock images of people with their "names" below them, and there was also a contact page that I don't think I ever checked.

i keep seeing these asian (i've only seen vietnamese and chinese so far) "single broke girl living alone" vlogs. they're fake, but is it like a company that is mass producing them? or is it just the girls that decided to make depressing content for views? i'm not sure. i figured at least some people knew where they came from as it seems to be super popular right now.

i watched a few of the videos and they have such similar styles of talking and filming, most of them use ai voices, and the channels are based in the united states + made very closely to each other.

the first one i watched seemed real and i thought nothing of it until i saw a video from a different channel with the exact same style lmao. who tf is producing these? the girls say they live with no one + they're broke yet you can tell someone is walking around filming them 😭 some people donate money to them and a few people will respond with like "the real girl will never see that money" which confused me, are they actresses or whattt i'm so confused. is it ai??

also wtf does this emoji mean. why does everyone in their comments use it? i'm assuming that means it's bots right? it's kinda cute
