I come and go on this app, so it’s been many months since the last time before I’ve come back to have a browse now, so I’m not sure if this is just a relatively new thing. I’ve noticed that on a lot of posts the OP will link to photos on imgur and so when I click on them I’ve discovered that I am unable to see the images, due to being in the uk.
I know this post probably won’t make any difference really, but it would be great if when posting to remember that not all users are based in the US, or any other country that isn’t blocked, (and actually there’s a large proportion of users that are from the UK on here), and maybe just post the photo on the post or use a different host site. There were a few that I was interested in that I’d have liked to have commented on yet couldn’t as the photo was integral to the post.
So, yeah, just a request if maybe it could be considered. Thank you.

ETA: apologies, I meant to say that I know one option is to use a VPN, but right now I’d prefer not to (various reasons).

I picked up an animation cel for my wall of Hulk vs Wendigo from the 1996 TV series, and noticed that the background (which is normally just a printed page) for this cell is a watercolor painted original. I checked the frame from the TV show, and it doesn't match the scene, so that means that this background is from another TV show.

Cel and background photos here:

Any leads on what TV show this background likely came from?

I'm a musician based in Paris, France.

A few months ago, while recording music in Ableton Live with a Universal Audio Apollo Twin and studio headphones, I started hearing what sounded like a man's voice coming through my headphones.

It happened intermittently over several hours, then never happened again.

I recorded it by holding my iPhone next to the headphones because I had no idea what was happening.

I put together this short video simply to make the recording easier to follow. The recording itself is original and unprocessed, I'm only trying to understand what I'm hearing.

The recording starts at 0:31, and the clearest section is around 1:41.

I'm not looking for paranormal explanations. I'm simply trying to identify the source. It could be RF interference, a radio transmission, a language I don't recognize, or something else entirely.

If anyone recognizes the language, the type of transmission, or has a technical explanation, I'd really appreciate your thoughts.

Hi Reddit, after years of listening to your stories, life has sadly given me something to write about.

Sorry for grammar errors I'm writing this fast as I want answers and English is not my first language.

My triend and are both 18 and atter shopping at Marshall's we were walking to petco to see the birds and I going through the parking lot we found two cars with orange envelopes and "XOXOXO" written on it and thought we should take one, read it and then put it back thinking it would be a prank love letter, it was far that as you'll see in the photos. After reading it we decided to get the second letter and saw that it was the same thing and decided to throw the letters away in a random gas station. I truly don't know wtf it is but I want to see if anyone has more information on it.

About 1 year ago I helped an elderly woman clean out her home and donate some of her old belongings. As a thank you she left me a collection of cassette tapes to add to my collection. One of the tapes in the set was a home recorded tape, and one side consists of 10 songs by artist Chet Ely & Walbridges Windy City Wonders. The tape has a note written inside the case's label that reads "recorded in 1972 in Chet's garage, Wilmette, IL. Chet died in California in 1984 (11/22/84, age 78. We really miss him!)" I have never heard of this artist but quick searching shows he isn't unheard of, but what I want to know is where could I/should I upload this music, as I doubt any recordings from chet ely's garage exist online and I would love for a fan to be able to hear some unknown recordings. The names of the songs listed on the tape are: Roll on Mississippi, Roll on. Nobody's Sweetheart. 'Till times get better. Jazz me blues. I married a dancin' fool. Tomorrow. My baby knows how. Ready for the river. Kansas city kitty. What a little moonlight can do.

Hi everyone. My son’s dad and I were together for 10 years. Unfortunately the relationship came crashing down a year ago. We own a house together and he packed up his stuff and left. The fallout has been pretty nasty and we argue every day. We have both retained lawyers to fight for custody of my son.
We weren’t legally married so we need to figure out the housing situation afterwards.

The problem I’m having is that today I realized he is stalking me. The last time he and I were intimate was 2 years ago. So naturally, as a 36 yr old woman I have needs. I slept with a new friend who lives on the other side of the US a couple of months ago. Somehow, my ex knows that I slept with this person, what his name is, where he’s from, what his profession is, etc. He has brought up very specific things that I have said in conversations with this friend.

The only way he could possibly know any of this is by listening in on my conversations. This friend of mine has only ever communicated with me via iMessages, Instagram, and FaceTime. I have changed all of my account passwords multiple times since our split. Two factor authorization is enabled, and I have been on the phone with Apple as they walked me through checking to see if other devices were signed into my Apple account and to check for unrecognized apps installed on my phone. Everything was clean.

The only other device he can use to monitor me is the ring app on our front door. I never have phone conversations near the ring app so it’s impossible that he would have heard something on there.

My lawyer told me to call the cops and have them check for a device within the home to see if he’s listening in. I’m going to have them come tomorrow but what happens if they don’t find anything? I don’t feel safe in my home and feel that he is constantly watching me. He’s trying to pile up whatever evidence he can to try to make a case for himself in court.

Thoughts?

Hi everyone,

We're looking for any help we can get.

A truck business next to our business, our business, and a house behind our business were all robbed. The only CCTV footage we have of the suspect vehicle is when they stopped to steal our gate motor.

We believe it's a white Ford Ranger double cab, but the number plate is too blurry to read. I'm hoping someone with experience in video enhancement, forensic image analysis, or identifying vehicles can take a look.

I'm not looking for random guesses. If you can genuinely recover or identify any of the following, it would be a huge help:

• The registration plate (even a partial plate).

• The exact model or approximate year.

• Any unique features (stickers, dents, bull bar, tow bar, wheels, canopy, etc.).

• Anything else that could help identify the vehicle.

Please mesaage and I'll send the original CCTV footage. If anyone is willing to analyze it or knows of better software or another subreddit that could help, I'd be incredibly grateful.

(Also added cctv footage in the comments) Thank you so much. Any help is appreciated.

On Friday, June 19, around 1:15 pm, a pedestrian was struck and killed in the crosswalk at Crestmoor Drive & Colesville Road (Route 29) in Silver Spring, Maryland, at the entrance to the Woodmoor neighborhood. The driver didn’t stop and still hasn’t been identified.

Police are looking for a black SUV with tinted windows and possible front-end or right-front damage. It was last seen around 1:17 pm heading north on Colesville Rd toward New Hampshire Ave, and may have cut through the neighborhood first — possibly Crestmoor Dr, Lorain Ave, or Brookmoor Dr.

Given the time of day, investigators think the vehicle may belong to someone who lives in or was visiting Woodmoor. It might not be visibly damaged.

If you were anywhere near there that afternoon, please check any dashcam, doorbell, or security footage — even a clip of a black SUV just passing through around that time could matter. There’s a $20,000 reward for a tip that leads to identifying the driver.

Please send anything directly to Montgomery County Police: tip line 1-866-411-8477 or non-emergency 301-279-8000.

Last night I went out to my balcony for a smoke and saw what looks like blood dripping down from the balcony above me, accompanied with another substance that looked like vomit or diarrhea. Today I'm even more sure it's blood because it dried a dark reddish brown. Racking my brain for an innocent explanation, the only thing I can think of is that maybe their dog (whose nails I hear clicking on the balcony sometimes) had bloody diarrhea or vomit. Do I just mind my business here? Bc I'm kind of concerned. There's a lot more brown droplets on the rafters of my balcony coming from above that I didnt take photos of, too.

Hello Reditors, i have a kind of a silly or a weird situation depends on ur perspective, i ve met online a person, it’s been a year now, she is a girl and apparently from the same country i was, i can confirm that because we exchanged several voice messages throughout the year, it’s been a year she be saying that she is 19 (i am 20 btw)
anyways throughout our daily texting sessions, lately she been acting really weird sending exactly this:

✂️
🖊️
🔎
🫗
🥄
🛝
🛹
🥌
🧗‍♀️
🎲
✈️
⌚️
🧲
💈
🛏️
🛌
📯
🔗📐
( this last 2 always together at the end separately)

and i noticed that she was sending it daily more than 10 times this last 10days everyday, of course i asked her after a few ones what does that mean but she always find an excuse to not answer me or say “it’s something u will never understand it’s a girl’s thing”.
i really tried to search online and asking other girls about it but didn’t find any answer.
it’s kinda weird because it gotta mean something it’s always sent in that order no mistakes and i don’t think someone will remember each emoji exactly in order or save it in the clipboard for no reason
it looks like a code, so i am really curious if u guys can help me with my lil investigation because alone i didn’t find much.
Thank you.

Update:
Hello again,thanks for everyone’s help
as i saw in most of the comments nothing serious could mean this emojis and i don’t think she is that type of person to try to send a code or something like tht today and yesterday she stopped sending those emojis she just sending tik toks and reels as usual nothing special, i didn’t ask her again about the emojis to be honest i couldn’t care less, so ig it will be a mystery forever,thanks again all of you for everyone’s help, i really appreciate everything because it helped me understand that “the code” isn’t anything serious and that’s all i wanted to know.

I took my children on a week long vacation without my spouse. Our maids cleaned while we were away but otherwise my husband was the only one going in and out or staying at the house (confirmed by front door cameras). When we arrived home I noticed a throw blanket folded up in our home theater and placed with the others. No one in my family has ever seen this blanket before. We have a very modern minimalist home and every piece is thoughtful and curated. We’ve only lived here for a couple years and there’s no clutter or closets full of old linens. Im saying there’s zero chance we just forgot about this blanket or the maids pulled it out from some hiding place. I even watched the cameras to be sure the they didn’t bring it in for some reason. Help me solve this mystery!!

Forbes claims that Bad Bunny said this at the Super Bowl pre-show press conference.

I checked the full Apple Music press-conference video and transcript and cannot find the quote. The closest moments are when he says he does not know how to express something in English, and later says viewers do not need to learn Spanish, only how to dance.

and thousands of other sources repeat it. I wish to know if it's real or fabricated...

EDIT:
I’ve reached out to the author and they will have issued a correction. It was indeed probably a hearsay only.

Someone in my family is using a second phone, and I need help to figure out who it is.

I can see the phone connected to our WiFi, which is how I learned about it in the first place. At first, I thought it was my stepson and he had just gotten a new phone. But today I looked at our WiFi connections (via the app, I’m away at work) to see if we had gotten something connected successfully, and saw that my stepson’s “old” phone had recently been connected to our network. My husband’s phone has also been connected to our network.

The timing of this mystery phone’s connection to our network doesn’t help me - I can’t see history, and the times I’ve seen it connected have been when both husband and stepson are home.

Is there a way to find out a phone number for this mystery phone? Is there some way to use our home WiFi to identify it? I’m not super technical, and I’m way out of my depth here.

Hi, I’m real freaked out right now because of whats been happening. Its currently summer break and I’ve been staying up a lot later than usual and have noticed that the same dodge charger has been parking outside my house almost everyday at 2-3am and leaving a couple minutes after. Nobody ever comes out the car and they always drive really slow while leaving (under 20 mph) and I might just be speculating but because their car is very loud they drive slow to not alert anyone that they were there. Yesterday I was able to get clear pictures of the car, most days the car parks slightly out of my view but yesterday it parked infront of my window. If you need more information about what’s happening like my area or something just let me know.

update: They are definitely just smoking, they pulled up and got out of the car for the first time with a blunt or cigarette. I saw a lot of people say they were probably just smoking and they were right. One side note, theres a park not even half a block away so I would think smoking at a park would be better than a random street. Maybe as some of you people said, better WiFi outside of my place.

I came across a post on tiktok and it had a video of the disney cruise. the caption says "Disney cruise 2011, I take full responsibility for the missing persons case of Rebbeca Coriam, you shall discover her at.." with some coordinations. Has anyone stumbled across the tiktok yet?

Edit: I noticed I misspelled her name in the title, I meant Coriam.

During the late night MTV (I believe) This short bump aired and was captured on a videotape (VHS to be precise, should it matter). Now many years later I have digitised the cassette and noticed this bump, PSAs weren't uncommon on MTV at the time, but I fail to see the message it's sending. Furthermore the song playing in the background is too a mystery! I have not been able to find anyone else mention this on the internet.

Excuse the poor quality, the signal strength was weak, if I remember correctly. It was recorded on the German MTV.

Any help is appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Hey everyone, I'm trying to identify the semi-truck that appears in this video between 00:28 and 00:33. They hit my car this afternoon.

The NJ license plate on the bottom left of the trailer is too blurry to read due to motion blur, but I can make out some letters and numbers. I need track him down and contact his insurance. I know this community is incredible at detective work.

Hi all! Thought I'd put the link here as well. The Australian Federal Police are investigating a huge child abuse case in Sydney at daycare centres at the moment and have asked the public for help.

https://www.afp.gov.au/news-centre/media-release/operation-moonbi-afp-releases-images-assist-victim-identification?fbclid=IwdGRjcATFL1hjbGNrBMUsPGV4dG4DYWVtAjExAHNydGMGYXBwX2lkDDM1MDY4NTUzMTcyOAABHoEC1w4IO0XkBKaFL84nDsiwBYqrzqKqYvh0xllScnmrcvdNbul73BIad9qT_aem_mUfnwQEGZKH50IDrwfoTKA

Does anyone recognise these clothing items? Might help the police if we can find a full photo of that shirt with the orange detail. Let's help put this sick freak behind bars

Couldn't have been google street view since they haven't been down my street. And there's no way any past real estate listings could have a pic of my car i only got a few years ago. This was over text and was followed by several vague religious threats. The number that sent the message looks like its and out of service number that used to be in use by someone who lived near me. I assume that whoever is using this local number to send the messages to hide their identity.

I randomly remembered this AMA today.

• Original AMA: https://www.reddit.com/r/AMA/comments/gvhr5g/im_a_19_year_old_who_lost_his_memory_after_a/ - Update (6 months later): https://www.reddit.com/r/AMA/comments/kefyxc/update_im_a_19_year_old_who_lost_his_memory_after/

I don't know if anyone else remembers this one, but it stuck with me.

A 19-year-old said he lost almost all of his memories after surgery because his brain didn't get enough oxygen. He didn't recognize his family, his friends, or anything from his old life.

About six months later, he posted one update. He said he was doing better, but his memories still hadn't really come back.

After that, it's like he just disappeared. I tried to see if he'd ever posted again, but I couldn't find anything after the 2020 update.

Maybe he just left Reddit. Maybe he didn't want to keep talking about it. Who knows.

I was just wondering if anyone has ever come across another public update from him. Not trying to figure out who he is - just curious what happened after that.

I like to watch videos frequently about online mysteries and cold cases in the real world. However, while I was watching a video today on YouTube, it came across a case of crime scene photos having been discovered in the "sexlexia hotel". They consist of graphic Polaroid images of what appeared to be a murder scene. I can't find anything online about the actual name of the hotel or its real life location. I also can't find anything online regarding whether or not the photos or the hotel itself was ever brought up to local authorities. I'm considering contacting Atlanta PD myself to at least figure out if they've been notified of this since I can't find anything online about it myself.

What I'm finding weird about this is that even though this seems to have gained a little bit of traction online, nobody has apparently contacted Atlanta PD about it and I can't find a single thing online about the actual location or name of the hotel. Apparently on the urban exploration resource forums where the images were originally shared. Somebody went back to try to get the Polaroids of the crime scene but reported that they were already gone, meaning that somebody had either taken them or removed them either on purpose or simply for cleanup.

Here is a link to the to the original form post regarding this matter:

Sexlexia Hotel Crime Scene

For warning that the content in some of the picture galleries are graphic and pretty gory.

My main goal here is to simply find out if anybody has actually contacted authorities about the images, which from what I understand people have deemed to be genuine images or if nobody has even said a thing about it. Furthermore, I want to know if anybody can find out what the actual name of the hotel is or it's real life location.

Hi, I don’t use Reddit often, but found this a suitable community to post this in.

About four years ago, I stumbled across this comment on a soft rock compilation on YouTube, and screenshotted it. One of those foreign run spam channels posting compilations of music over and over again. I’d intended to investigate it at the time, but never got around to it. I never forgot about it however.

The comment reads;

“They hid me me Karen d a w n West in this apartment somewhere I was sitting here for a long time with Marvin in her kennel and my purse here just ready to go and then I fell asleep and they had me so now you're taking my sister Lori she's the one that hit me with the car with her car it was a hit and run now I'm scared you're taking someone who tried to kill me”

This comment is of course disturbing, indicating that the comments writer (Karen) has been ‘hidden’ by someone, seemingly describing her kidnapping by an unknown force, while addressing the comment to someone else (also unknown) while describing how her sister Lori hit her in a hit and run. That is the sense I can make out of it anyway.

I have located the video, it is still up and so is the comment, though the name of the channel has been changed.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IH9uHsAdt1w

Karen’s channel has no videos, and only a single playlist containing similar music to what is in the playlist.

What does everyone make of this?

I first uncovered this about a year ago, and have been stumped since. I have a privated/locked account on a very popular social media platform with a fairly generic, but identifiable name. Like most social media nowadays, it lets you pick both an account name and a display name/nickname. There's probably 50-70 accounts with very similar names to mine.

For whatever reason, I searched up my own username on the platform, and I found an account nearly identical to mine. Nearly the same account name, clearly my profile picture copied but slightly differently cropped, and what's disturbing is the display name (not the account name) is my legal name, first and last. The only thing I have linked to this social media is my phone number, which I've googled and I can't find my name linked to it.

The account name is also only kind of similar to mine. Imagine if my account name was "count_to_8", this account's name was "count_to_6" or something.

I know that many people will make copies of accounts to try to scam people, but this account has no followers, no following, no posts, nothing. And again, how would it have my full name?

What could this be? This has been in my mind since I first found it.

A couple of days ago pretty much my whole family decided to go to a village house my aunt has and stay for a couple of days,our car was filled up with luggage so i had to go with my grandfather’s car,which is an old chinese car with a radio. It had a small LCD display but it had been broken since forever.I was sitting in the passenger seat all the time,at some point my grandfather pulled over to get the car filled up on gas and buy a few snacks and i stayed in the car by myself,he disappeared into the store and i was bored as hell so I turned on the radio,i was switching between stations when i came across one,im not sure what station it was,as the radio’s display was broken and barely showed anything,but on the other side was presumably an elderly woman crying and pleading for help. I didn’t understand much of it but i managed to make out a few sentences, “please,don’t leave me here,I am gonna die” and “it’s burning,i beg you” (they weren’t in English,the original words were in Persian“خواهش میکنم،منو اینجا تنها نزار،من میمیرم” and “دارم میسوزم،تمنا میکنم”) I’m not sure what it was,it practically switched between a man yelling in a very deep voice,his words were genuinely unintelligible. And the woman crying for him. I listened to it for like 10 minutes until i just decided to turn it off. Has anyone come across anything like this? Sorry if my grammar is inconsistent, English is not my first language.
