The surveillance footage that captured the limp body of a young boy getting dragged into a closet was surprisingly clear.
“You’re pathetic, but I already knew that.” The person talking came into view and positioned the boy in front of the camera. His body was completely nude except for a sagging diaper. To be alive - seemed agonizing.
The little boy’s breathing sounded like a fish out of water - they bent over and pinched the little boy’s lips together.
“See? You don’t need to breathe through your mouth like that - dummy.”
Those would be the last words he ever hears. The boy would die in that closet. After enduring endless torture- starvation, ice baths, and being forced to drink hot sauce. But who was behind the camera watching?

True crime

The first thing they feel is how stiff the table is underneath them… it feels so cold. Then, they open their eyes, and see a masked man staring straight at them holding a scalpel. 

The first instinct is to scream. To run. 
But that would be silly. They paid thousands of dollars for this surgery. 

Suddenly, their eyes start feeling heavy again. The room looks blurry and they start to feel like something heavy is sitting on their chest. 

The only comfort is knowing that they booked the best plastic surgeon in all of South Korea. It was a little strange that they had an opening for a surgery the same week… because wouldn’t his schedule be fully booked? If he’s that popular?

And they could have sworn that he had 5 other surgeries scheduled for this very time slot… how could the doctor be in 5 operating rooms at once?

But that’s why they’re called “ghost doctors.” You book a surgery with a top doctor, pay top dollar, only to have him walk out the room the second you are sedated. Then a strange man will come in and perform surgery. 

The man that worked the front desk? The medical salesman? The custodian? 
They can all be your doctor if they put on a white coat.

#352: The Nurses Watch Him Bleed Out On The Operating Table Because The Doctor Went Home

The summer sleep away camp for youths is held on the Island of UTOYA every single summer. About 500 teenagers will gather on the wooded island.
They sleep in tents, have bonfires, and tell creepy stories while roasting marshmallows.
But when the kids start playing games - that’s usually when the fun starts. Card games, tag, hide and seek -
A group of 11 teenagers were lying down in the grass right off the “Lover’s Path.”
“Here lay down right here and don’t move. Shhhh. Act like you’re dead.”
If a single one of them sneezes, coughs, or so much as moves - their covers are blown. They hear the footsteps getting nearer on the path… closer…
One of the 11 looks up.
There is a young guy, blonde hair, striking blue eyes - just standing over them.
She makes eye contact with him… he lifts his hand up and a black rifle appears.
He opens fire.
Out of the 11. 10 will die. 1 will survive.
Another 59 on the island will be killed within the hour. There is a mad gunman on the loose on an island full of teenagers.

#351: 500 Teens Trapped On An Island With A Madman That’s Hunting Them

There was an emergency at Terri’s daycare. This had never happened before. Ever. 
She picked up the phone - 
“Hi, uh - there’s been a family emergency. Please come pick your children up right away. Please hurry.”
The parents rush to pick up their children and they let out a sigh of relief when they see all the toddlers are in one piece. But something is wrong with Terri. She’s rushing them into their car seats and you can just tell her mind is elsewhere. 
Once all the children are gone - Terri rushes to her phone and dials 911 - 
“Hi, it’s an emergency. I found something in my son’s closet wrapped in a plastic bag. He has a shotgun in his room… he just pulled up. Can you please just come?”
Terri kept an eye on her son that just arrived at home. 
Any louder, and Brian might hear her. 
Any louder and he might realize that his mother Terri knew what he did. 
Any louder and he might investigate and find what’s in the kitchen sink. Underneath a blue towel - lay a decapitated head and pair of hacked off hands. 
Any louder and the Cohee family would have to ask their 19 year old son - where is there rest of the body??

#349: Teen Went On “Truth Telling” TV Show To Win Money, Told 18 Personal Secrets, Then Was Murdered

In the seat facing away from the camera, all they could see was the student’s back and her arms digging through whatever was in her lap. For several minutes, she stayed like this. Then she got up. Turned around. And looked straight into the lens of the CCTV camera in the corner. 
She locked eyes and stayed like that. They felt a chill as they watched the footage. An icy stare. Frozen in place. Then she lifted up her hands and held a body up to the camera. A cat--a campus stray, lovingly named Princess by the other University students. She grabbed the back of the kitten’s neck. Then, with her other hand, wrapped her grip firmly around the kitten’s throat and squeezed. 
Shanghai Tech’s very own serial cat killer. This is the case dubbed the ‘animal Nth rooms,’ about the world-wide cat (crush, torture, and kill) gang that was responsible for the viral video—the cat blender.
Who is behind it all? And why?
