Heart Starts Pounding w/ Kaelyn Moore

Before there was Santa, there was Frau Perchta.

She didn't care if you were sleeping or awake. She cared if you finished your chores. And if you didn't? She’d take her iron scissors, cut open your belly, and stuff you with straw.

The origins of Christmas are darker than any Grimms' fairy tale. Dive into the pagan nightmares that birthed our holiday traditions in the new episode. 🎄✂️🩸

Imagine this: You answer a knock at your door. A nice couple asks if you’ve heard of "God the Mother." You politely say no, but when you try to leave, they realize you're alone... and they won't let you close the door. 🚪🔒

In today’s episode, we are reading bone-chilling encounters with recruiters from Scientology, The Twin Flames Universe, and other high-control groups who refused to take "no" for an answer.

If you’ve ever had a "free personality test" offered to you on the street, you need to watch this video. It might just save you.

Why is Mount Everest known as the world's highest open-air graveyard? 🏔️

Over 200 climbers who went up... never came down. Their bodies are still there, perfectly preserved by the ice, acting as grim markers for the trail. Some look like they just sat down to rest.

In our new video, we're venturing into the deadly "Death Zone"—the area above 26,000 feet where the human body is literally dying with every breath.

We're uncovering their haunting stories. Why are they left there? And who were they?

Dare to watch?

The new episode is about a terrifying urban legend that CAME TRUE. The myth of "Cropsy" warned of a monster hunting kids in the woods. But the horrifying reality was that a real-life predator was living on the abandoned asylum grounds... and children were going missing.
