I found out why the children in my town keep going MISSING

[@hobojones3038]

The tall man lashed out from the darkness with a pair a pliers, clamping them down firmly on Shemp’s nose and twisting. Shemp cried with an agonized wub wub wub! Shemp managed to break free and retaliated with a sharp stab of his fingers to the tall man’s eyes. The adversary smirked and blocked it easily, bridging it with a flat hand. Nyuk, he said with a tone of finality.

A genuinely disturbing story, immaculately delivered. Stirred some unsettling childhood memories for me.

[@lisaholtzclaw4947]

I grew up in Chowchilla, California in the 70s and 80s. That is the town where, in 1976, a school bus really did disappear and was kidnapped. Thankfully, I was not on that bus that day, but many of my friends were. It changed the town, and is still talked about from time to time these days.

[@ThatPersonK]

Was that the bus that got hijacked and the kids and bus driver were put in underground storage containers by those 3 idiots who tried to get ransom money.

[@jbear3478]

Well what happened?

So, the face behind the voice! You have now graduated to the level of Mr Ballen. I think you guys are pioneering the genre.

[@dyinhope6840]

...not even the same genre. Ballen's atories are non-fiction based on facts. This guy is just narrating fictional stories sent to him by creepypasta writers and fans. Granted, ballen has mastered making his non-fiction similar in the way he presents it as they are creepy stories. But yeah still...pretty huge difference between fact and campfire stories.

The two girls didn’t. The one girl did and used the two as a sacrifice. So no the teacher just got caught up in fate just like the man who started walking and didn’t stop till he died

I live in Norway. Here the winter is so long, hard and dark that the schools never close. Only if it's below 35 F. and they can't keep the schools warm. The children ski to school in all kinds of weather. And we have studded winter tires on the cars and buses.

[@krowdrah_1693]

Time to relax and listen to a banger! I love me some lighthouse on a Friday night! Question, have you ever thought about narrating books/ doing audio books? I would LOVE (and I'm sure many others, too) for you to narrate some good horror books! If you ever get the chance,, as I'm sure you're busy, could you do Lockwood and Co. by Jonathan Stroud? Even if it's just in thirty minute increments, I would go ballistic haha.

[@TheDarknessDiaries]

Lighthouse horror is by far the best story teller ever!!! He inspired me to start a channel after years of wanting to but because I suffer from dyslexia I could never do it.

[@samanthawatts2733]

So excited and very thankful for another new story from my FAVORITE storyteller.

[@Datrebor]

The stories are so much better when we can watch you tell them from time to time. The way you talk with you hands and expressions make the story that much more scarier. I think the tall man is also called the slender man in other stories. He has been spotted just about all over the place. Man, you can really tell a spooky story. No I have to try and go to sleep, without a nightmare, Right.

[@TowGunner]

Anissa Weier and Morgan Geyser

[@myaccountgotbannedsoimause2548]

My guess are that children are born amoral, like blank canvases waiting to be painted by their surroundings, I was pretty vicious when I was young, and that was due to my internet exposure to gore

[@AvalonDreamz]

Children are easily programmed. They are born innocent, but it's what society turns them into, what those who have access to their minds turn them into. If you don't have morals, structure, love, empathy, all those GOOD things to install into a child... well they will fill the void with what they will. And in todays society that can be a terrifying thing where the internet is concerned. And those with foul agendas. That is why "Protecting children" is a very real necessity.
