What I bring you today is the eeriest the dark side of YouTube offers — these are 30 scary videos that should come with a warning, and to be honest, you're not prepared for what you're about to see!
Ever wondered why scary videos are so popular online? Why do fans of the horror genre, for the most part, prefer watching them over the usual teen-scream scary flicks? Sure, the jump scares and special effects in horror movies are unsettling, but look past the gimmicks and you’re left with flat acting and an implausible, often laughable storyline. You can't really relate to it much. But coming to real-life creepy videos, there's just something intrinsically terrifying about them... something that makes you think you too can come face to face with the ominous incidents displayed in them some unfortunate day.

But be cautioned — the creepy videos included in this list are some of the scariest clips you can ever come across! The dire chills they'd bring into your life are going to make you experience firsthand what being an active partaker in something nightmarish is like.
