Iran is home to one of the world’s most restricted versions of the Internet, with over 2/3s of the World Wide Web cut off from the country’s residents. And yet, horrors still lurk there. Today we’ll uncover them.

    I had the exact same experience with Elisa like 200 times during the war, when the internet was shut down. I tried so many apps, like Yolla, to call. After trying thousands of times, I finally managed to speak to someone, and they told me the calls were being redirected to an operator in North Africa. :/ They never specified the country, and they would get so mad if you asked more questions.

    Imagine someone answering instead of your mom, and when you ask, “Who are you?! What is this?” they’re like, “Not our decision. Ask your own government.” :/

    Okay, just I will just HOW ? :))

    It's pretty normal in Iran, bro. I'm not saying Iran is a creepy place or anything—it's actually the complete opposite. But if you start digging into Iranian folklore, you're gonna find some insanely creepy rabbit holes.

    We've got places like Rig-e Jenn (Iran's "Bermuda Triangle"), the screaming Jangal-e Jigh, Stars Valley on Qeshm, ancient abandoned villages, old cemeteries, forgotten castles, caves people call the "Cave of the Jinn," and hundreds of stories about jinn, curses, disappearances, and paranormal encounters that have been passed down for generations.

    And here's the craziest part: these aren't just random names people made up. Most of these places became famous because of actual incidents, strange sounds, people getting lost, unexplained experiences, or legends that have been told by locals for decades. Some of them even have scientific explanations, while others are still surrounded by mystery.

    The crazy part? Even a lot of Iranians don't know half of these stories unless they actually go down the rabbit hole.

    Iran's lore goes hard. 🙂‍↔️

    18:05 That’s Iran baby. That’s our government. They make people go on TV and lie for literally doing nothing. Since 2022, hijab hasn’t been as much of a priority for the government, but some overly religious people will still harass you on the street if you don’t wear one. Their logic is that they’re trying to get us into heaven. 😂 I just don’t know how they think they’ll get there after all the harassment and all the killing they’ve done.

    I myself was a victim of the mass poisoning and no it was not a hallucination. as every student was taken by the ambulances some firefighters came and found smoke grenades about 8 of them in the pray room we genuinely forced them to tell us that. they wouldn't tell us

    If he's so worried about the terrorist regime of Iran who killed the people in Iran during the uprising, what is he doing in Iran's enemy country and watching their news?
