People Recall 42 Innocent Videos That Hide Creepy And Disturbing Stories Behind Their Scenes

Mother Love by Queen. Freddie got most of the song recorded, but Brian has the last verse.


At the studio, Freddie said he was tired and would finish the rest some other time. He never did, resting at home during his final days. Brian came back later after Freddie's death and finished the last bit.

Back in the 90's, there was a segment on The Jenny Jones Show where a guy (Scott Amedure) confessed that he had a crush on a male friend (Jonathan Schmitz).

Schmitz was so embarrassed by the appearance that he shot and k**led Amedure 3 days after the taping.

So I wouldn't call this innocent, but surprising. A news reporter is interviewing Stephen McDaniel about a missing woman, Lauren Gidding. During the interview the reporter tells him that a body was found (turns out to be her body), and McDaniel just kind of mentally shuts off.

That would kind of be a normal reaction; finding out an acquaintance of yours is missing, and then a body is found in the area where she disappeared. The kicker is, that McDaniel is the one who m******d and hid Giddings body, and he's coming to the realization that the police found her and hes officially f****d. Definitely eerie.

The song Anne Marie sings in ‘All Dogs Go to Heaven’ about wanting a loving home. While recording, the voice actress, Judith Barsi kept crying. Her home life was awful. Her father was a*****e to both her and her mother and would often threaten to k**l or hurt them. Judith died before the movie came out. She and her mother were k**led by her father and then he k**led himself. She was 10.

There's a film called the Beastmaster. The titular Beastmaster has a large, black panther that is just a tiger painted black. Apparently the black paint was toxic, and the tiger died as a result after filming concluded. :(.

Curb Your Enthusiasm were filming in Dodger Stadium during a live match.

If they hadn’t been there, a man called Juan Catalan would have gone to Death Row for murder.

The cameras caught footage of him sitting in his seat and he was exonerated. There’s a Netflix documentary on it called Long Shot.

Maybe not that innocent to begin with but extra creepy knowing the truth.

A video of an African Grey parrot named Bud saying "don't f*****g shoot". He witnessed his owner (Martin Durham) being m******d by his wife. IIRC Bud also mimicked both sides of verbal fights, alternating between two a male and female voice.

I believe the parrot testified in court, the wife was convicted.

Edit: Bud did NOT testify, sorry to get your hopes up. He was however a useful witness during the investigation!

This video of a band performing in a bar in Thailand. Minutes later, the entire place catches fire and more than 60 people are dead.

Also, the band's name is "Burn" and the song they're singing is Linkin Park's "In The End."

It was on an old episode of Oprah (way before I was born, but it was featured in the anniversary box set) this mom had made several recordings of essentially 'mom tutorials' for her daughter. Which is really sweet, but it was because she was diagnosed with cancer and she was expected to die when her daughter was 3.

Her daughter said she watched them throughout her entire childhood and still plays them when she feels like she needs her mom around.

Edit: The reason why I put this here is that it was originally presented as cute videos like 'how to tie a ponytail' or 'how to alter a prom dress'. Then you found out the mom was dying and that this was basically a prolonged goodbye letter. There were scenes of her speculating how her daughter would look like a woman, what kind of guy she'd date, the shenanigans her dad and her would do, etc. I found it terrifying that she had to film them all in such short proximity, but it's also pretty wholesome.

That part in Supersize Me where they're talking about how Jared Fogle is good with kids.

Edit: Holy c**p this blew up. Thanks for the karma and the destroyed inbox!

Look up the Hart family crash. One of the victims was a child who had been in a viral video/photo for hugging a cop during a police brutality protest, and later was m******d by his parents after years of horrific a**se. The interaction looks a whole lot more like a child desperately in need of help rather than the feel good moment it was made out to be at the time.

This surveillance video of Timothy Pitzen, it just looks like he and his mother are checking into a hotel but in reality it is shortly before his mother kills herself and leaves behind a note saying Timmothy is safe but will never be found. He is still missing..

The 2004 Tsunami videos. People having fun on gorgeous day, enjoying the now very wide beach not knowing the wave of death coming towards them.

This video from June of 2012 showing a 20-year-old man playing Dance Dance Revolution at an AMC theater in Connecticut. He is being unknowingly recorded from behind by some people who spotted him and they are both mocking him and admiring his skills at the game.

Six months after this video was taken, the young man in the video, Adam Lanza, would shoot his mother 4 times in the head while she slept. He would then drive his car to the nearby Sandy Hook Elementary School, where he would m****r 6 adults and 20 children who were between the ages of 6 and 7. During the shooting, he yelled a***e and obscenities at his victims. One student reported that he heard one of his classmates cry out "Help me! I don't want to be here!" and Lanza replied "Well, you're here." Upon hearing the sirens of responding police units, Lanza pulled out a 10mm pistol and shot himself.

No motive for the shooting was ever found.

This isn’t really terrifying, but it always gives me the creeps to hear it. It’s a video of Alessandro Moreschi, who was a Castrato singer. This is him singing in 1902, I believe, and he was in his forties.

If you don’t know what a castrato is, basically they used to be really popular to use in opera and other genres of music way back a few centuries ago, mostly to use in place of female singers. A castrato is a male singer who has been castrated before puberty. Basically, if a young boy had a high voice in choir or something along those lines, they would be castrated while young so that they wouldn’t lose their abilities to reach the high pitches because their voices wouldn’t drop due to puberty. Honestly, the recording completely creeps me out because it was such an awful thing in the history of opera, and it’s so creepy that only a little under a hundred years ago did the last official castrato die. Thousands of boys died while being castrated or after, and this recording is absolutely haunting.

A popular 18 year old CSGO Youtuber uploaded a reveal of the super car he had just bought.

His Steam account containing around $100,000 of in-game items was banned 6 months later, causing him to have a serious mental breakdown. 2 months after his ban he drove this car 100MPH down ~~an LA~~ a San Diego highway the wrong way in an attempt to commit s*****e. He crashed head on into a van, k**ling himself, a mother and her 12 year old daughter.

Tears in Heaven - Eric Clapton.

It’s a song written to his 4 1/2 year old son who died after falling 53 stories out an apartment window that was accidentally left open.

Tommy Cooper death on stage. People was thinking he was still acting when he collapsed on the ground dead, for a heart attack.

One day I saw a news report on a womans body dropped in a lake. The police were still looking for the body. They interviewed a man who said "that could've been someone's mother" A few hours later they find out the body was that mans mother.

In 2017 there were two girls (13 and 14) who were k****d in an Indiana park. The m*****s remained unsolved. The last Snapchat that one of the girls posted shows an unknown guy in hoodie approaching them.
