Horror film fans spiral into conspiracy after disturbing VHS tapes surface
Users on Reddit, Instagram, and TikTok are taking to the platforms in search of answers, with many wondering if it could be a clever marketing ploy for a new film.
In a number of States, people are discovering VHS tapes featuring three hours of different horror scenes, and after exchanging theories and findings online, it appears all the tapes share the same footage. Horror film fans have gone into overdrive with their conspiracy theories after a series of very disturbing VHS recordings started appearing across the US. Pic: Getty
On the clip that's been uploaded to YouTube, we can see that the three-hour, 42-minute-long feature has been filmed in black and white and with night vision cameras.
Titled 'WHITEFACE' and uploaded on June 27, the video was uploaded in a bid to gain more context on the elusive video.
In the description, the user noted six locations where tapes have been found thus far.
These include a Hollywood video store, a bar in Nashville, a thrift store in Orlando, and an art gallery in Virginia.
TikToker Nicolas Curcio is one of many who took to the internet, intrigued by these elusive tapes, noting; 'This is either one of the best art projects ever or a case of the possible first-ever real found footage horror film.'
He went on to add that the VHS tapes don't feature any notable or recognisable actors and mostly appears to be a man with a white-painted face wandering around LA.
In other harrowing moments in the video, the man can be seen filming random people, following them home and even harassing a woman at a bus stop.
Some have theorized it may be a student film while others think it may be a form of rage bait.
Under Nicolas' video, one user commented: '$5 this is viral marketing for a movie that's going to drop later this year.' Users on Reddit, Instagram, and TikTok are taking to the platforms in search of answers, with many wondering if it could be a clever marketing ploy for a new film. Pic: Getty.
'I'm so pessimistic that I will never believe that this wasn't created for virality on the Internet,' another penned.
While many are noting that the name on the tape is the same as that of the antagonist of a notable indie horror game called IMSCARED.
What do we think? Marketing ploy or something much more terrifying?

Airline star Jane Boulton in embarrassing blunder as she misses her flight – years after scolding late passengers
STAR of iconic hit TV show Airline, Jane Boulton, has been left red-faced after making a huge blunder. 5 TV star Jane Boulton has revealed she missed her flight - years after scolding passengers for doing the same thing Credit: TikTok/Janeboulton_airline 5 She rose to fame on the ITV reality show - over 25 years ago Credit: LWT Jane, Revealing that she was due to head to Gatwick Airport after attending a podcast recording, Jane found herself stuck in traffic that prevented her from arriving on time. Appearing that karma was out to get her, she said to the camera: "Came to for an interview with Lewis Nicholls yesterday and, guess what guys, for the first time in my life it was not easy because I did not get there on time. "We got stuck in the most horrific traffic on the way to Gatwick, there was an accident and literally we came off the motorway to queue up for the Gatwick turn off and it took us probably an hour to get from there." Read More on Airline In a bitter blow, Jane was just ONE minute late to the check-in desk. And despite being Britain's most well-known check-in lady, her celebrity status and previous credentials did not help her as she was still denied the chance to board the plane after asking very nicely. Jane continued: "We missed the check-in by how long? One minute. And as nice as I was... but no, she wasn't having any of it. "So we missed our little flight with Eastern Airways and had to book on a train, so we should have arrived here at 10 yesterday morning and we got here at about four, three o'clock. Most read in Reality "So I know how people feel now, and I can honestly say a lot of people out there are probably thinking 'karma'." Jane was based at Luton Airport working for EasyJet on their check-in desk and Airline's Jane Boulton reveals she didn't make a penny from the hit show She often clashed with unruly customers and was never afraid to put them in their place. Her fans were quick to make light of the situation as they quoted many of Jane's viral catchphrases that she often used on late passengers on the show, back to her. One wrote on the post: "Well I'm sorry but a coffee shop does not look like departures (love you Jane)." Another added: "Jane, it's a plane not a bus, much love as always though." 5 Jane has been back in the public eye after returning to fame in 2023 Credit: Rex 5 Her mishap left her fans in hysterics Credit: TikTok/Janeboulton_airline As a third said: "It is easy if you get here on time as Jane Boulton once told a customer." Jane ceased working in the airline industry in 2014 and shortly after began running her own business, Party Paradise UK. She found herself thrust back into the spotlight when Airline found a new lease of life via TikTok with various clips and episodes going viral - 20 years after they were first aired. It saw Jane make a return to mainstream fame in 2023 and she has since built up an impressive online following. She has appeared on This Morning and various podcasts reflecting about her time on the show. Jane has also become a favourite for brand partnerships and has raked in the cash working with a whole host of companies. One full circle moment saw Jane collaborate with EasyJet as a brand ambassador for a series of viral video clips last year. 5 She was known as the no-nonsense star on the show Credit: LWT
