    Ryan gets possessed Shane: It's just a phase
  • @ath1fa
    demon: pushes shane down shane: it was probably only the wind ryan: swallows bottles of holy water
  • In this episode I feel like Shane was actually kinda sad/disappointed that he couldn't fully believe in it, and I call that character development
  • @hogkan
    i adore this woman...she opens a portal to hell and then goes and gets a sandwich like, "brb guys gl" LMFAO
  • @noralindberg738
    Ryan: *sitting on the floor scared to death, explaining his child fears. Shane: I took an improv comedy class once.
  • @maddiek963
    Ryan: * describing how he would kill Shane with a voodoo doll * Shane: wait, what
  • @multiaudios4421
    Bloody Mary and Shane: laughing at how the fan is moving without electricity Ryan: having a mental breakdown
  • @deriale6015
    When Ryan asked the spirit in the house, "is there anything you want to say to the giant?" (Referencing Shane), that's when they picked up a distinct whimper of what sounded like fear. Zach (the man who murdered his girlfriend in that house), was 6'8". I think about that moment in this episode a lot.
  • @sweetlpepper
    Ryan: gets possessed, crawls down the stairs backwards, yells Shane: damn that's some good gymnastics, have you been taking lessons?
  • @seaquarian
    the real voodoo magic is how she just drew that perfect circle on the ground witchcraft
  • @hrtylocket
    “I’m gonna buy you one of those for Christmas.” “Shut up Shane. “
  • “Less than a decade after the murder, a woman named Mary “Voodoo Queen” Millan leased the building on Rampart Street and set up shop as “Bloody Mary Haunted Museum and Tour.” For a fee, visitors are let into the Bowen/Hall apartment to view the very stove and fridge where Hall’s remains were found. Reports are that the apartment was decorated like a schlocky horror film, complete with fake-blood splashes and a bride-and-groom set of Chucky dolls. One friend of the couple called it “despicable and atrociously exploitative.” And I agree — the event was horrible enough. Decorating it like some cheap slasher flick turns it into entertainment, erasing the reality of the actual people who lived and died in that apartment.”

    Did anyone else think it was adorable when Shane said, "Ryan, sometimes we argue on this show, I don't want to murder you!" 2:44
  • @maddiee2024
    ghost holds conversation with Shane Shane: Wow my imagination is so wild sometimes
  • Ryan jumping over the wall and Shane just casually filming was probably the most funniest thing ever 🤣 3:33
  • @ewenwyd2464
    "and where you a scared child?" Ryan- "All the time" Shane- "I took a improve class once"
  • @plaidkazoo
    Ryan: /is having an experience/ Shane: I took an improv comedy class once.
  • @zeronaia8730
    a full bodied ghost appears in front of shane Shane: shrugs
  • As someone who's lived in Southern Louisiana for more than 90% of their life, it kills me that they label what is clearly an owl as a whimper.
  • @michal_placzek
    I knew I recognized that house right away! I've read that there was a voodoo shop and that the owner was organizing some really distasteful tours to Zach and Addie's apartment. A tragic, painful story. Should not be sensationalized. As shouldn't be voodoo itself. Alas, here we are.
