Full Ransom Saga Documentary Transcript

Of all the places on the internet people go to find scares,  Reddit is among the most widely frequented. There, among a host of other "creepy" subreddits, lies NoSleep, a forum devoted to telling creepy stories with the motto "It's all true, even if it's not." This has led to many series and alternate reality games in which commenters take an active role in how the stories unfold. One such series, memorialized on NoSleep's list of most fabled tales, was started sometime in 2013 by /u/capnjammer80, under the title "My Hometown Doesn't Exist." Like most NoSleep titles, this one sounded sensational, and the content was similar to a million other similar stories: a man discovers that the town he grew up in not only doesn't exist, but possibly never has, as there is absolutely no evidence for it and nobody he talks to from the area, including commenters to the story, had ever heard of it. This was the town of Ransom, Virginia. As ...

The original story

Sometime around 2013, a post appeared on Reddit's /r/nosleep by a user called /u/capnjammer80 called 'My Hometown Doesn't Exist." He described finding out one day that the town he had grown up in,  Ransom, Virginia, didn't exist, and leaving his normal life and job as though compelled to go investigate. The story stayed on the front page of NoSleep for a while, and eventually became a series known as "The Ransom Saga." OP describes the terrifying supernatural experiences and visions he has on the road while driving there, and commenters begin offering advice and researching the story so far... ...oddly enough, most of the information they come up with corroborates OP's story, and they find the likely site of Ransom. Once OP arrives at the town, at different points he finds it abandoned and ruined, run down, and relatively new-looking and populated,  but by people acting very odd. OP draws a map overlaying a Google Map of where the...

My Experience with the Night of a Thousand Hells

This story was uploaded to NoSleep by me the day after the original investigation post was made to NoSleepOOC. It was taken down, understandably, because I didn't have the OP's permission to use his story. However, this is, as I say quite explicitly in the text, a real  story that I really  experienced myself, and is therefore in fact my  OC as well. __________________________ Hey everyone. I thought I'd post some of my experiences with ESPER here. I want it to be understood, however, that this is related to my investigation into a NoSleep series that I believe may be real (see my post on NoSleepOOC here ), and this is not a fictional story. In no way is it to be thought that this is supposed to be a NoSleep. I know the rule is to normally believe that this is all true even if it isn't, but I am sincerely writing this not to continue the original ARG/stories, or to capitalize on the success of another NoSleeper by rehashing his stories, but genuinely to help pr...
