Home Made Documentaries on a variety of topics and themes. These documentaries are all made by one person with very basic equipment and know-how. The topics covered have a general focus on social history and nostalgia.
OUT NOW - 'On Shining Wings' is a full remake of one of the videos which was removed. This video has a bit of everything - spiritual musing on ley lines and infrasound, emotional and personal memories, and a whole host of social history displayed with trademark poetry and passion. It even includes a moving performance of a well known folk song. This is a personal topic for me - give it a go and let me know what you think!
I'm pleased to announce that the last 'Copyright Strike' against the channel has today been lifted/expired.
I was utterly amazed when I received a full strike, along with a threatening message about the now deleted Piper Alpha documentary. This came two days before the BBC released their very own documentary on the same subject (just a coincidence, of course... ). Anyway, I watched the BBC show, and found it about as emotionally engaging as a paper bag, whereas mine was, well....very different.
That being said, I can now safely remake the videos which were removed at the time (both due to the strikes, and due to me removing anything at all related to this taxpayer-funded broadcaster). Look out for new and improved versions of these documentaries soon!
Presenting my brand new new documentary - 'The Mystical History of Mascots'! In this lengthy and feature-packed video, I explore both the social history of mascot characters, as well as their esoteric, spiritual and psychological meaning.
This documentary moulds together the two topics most commonly seen on my channel - occult symbolism and social history/theme park memories! There's quite a lot here to see and hear, and I hope this video appeals to a wide cross section of subscribers and fans of the channel!
After a long weekend celebrating the finale of the 2025 Theme Park season, I can now get back to work on creating the next documentary, and it's going to be a unique one!
It's another "Sacred History of..." video, and I will be diving deep into metaphysical and esoteric themes, while at the same time telling the story of a very commonly seen seen social phenomenon. That said, the focus will be very much on the occult side of things, and it has a crazy amount of cultural, historic and psychological themes all coming together into one video! I've been wanting to do a video on this topic for ages, but the inspiration didn't arrive until now.
One part of it has already been filmed, and the rest will be done in between the rain and winter conditions we are moving into. Look out for more updates soon!

Follow Left Hand Path Documentaries on Instagram! When filming my videos, there is always a lot of footage which is never used, and usually it is just deleted. However, I have decided to share some of these clips on this brand new Instagram page for the channel!
You might also get to see behind the scenes peeks, photos of places, and snippets of trailers, projects and bits of fun along the way.
Here it is, the longest documentary I have ever made! This was a lot of fun to film, and more than a little bit unique! It's a full remake of one of the first ever videos on the channel, and I'm really happy with the finished result. The topic is weird, yes - but it still has everything you might expect from a video, including historic sites, artistic musings and all of the moods and mysteries of social history!
The next video will be my first ever feature length, one hour long documentary! It's been a huge project to film, and feels massive in terms of how many moods, themes and historic moments it mentions. I appear on camera a lot too - in fact it's probably the closest thing I've made to a proper 'TV Style' documentary.
The theme itself is really quite quirky - in fact it's a remake of one of the first ever videos I made on the channel (now removed). There's still a lot of editing to do, but do give this one a go if you can - I think it's one of the most unique videos I've made so far. Coming soon!
According to my YouTube analytics page, over 90% of people who watch the videos are not subscribed to the channel. Please subscribe - it is free to do so and helps the channel to grow. There are nearly 8000 subscribers now, which is amazing, but more people need to subscribe to help the videos reach new audiences.
This is important as I have some big ideas for new videos, including interviews with some very interesting and unique people - but they want to know it is worth their time and effort to appear on film. And, well....
The last six videos (since July) have yet to even reach 1000 views, with many plateauing at around 300. This includes videos where I have travelled long distances to visit locations etc. Sadly, these figures are far too low to inspire confidence in the people I want to reach out to as a filmmaker, and they will likely look elsewhere to tell their stories.
You can help this by simply subscribing to the channel, liking and commenting on the videos and by watching ANY of the videos which you think you might find interesting.
