In 2017, artist Adam Ellis posted a tweet claiming his apartment was being haunted by the ghost of a dead child named Dear David. What started as a strange sleep paralysis experience quickly spiraled into eerie photos, unsettling videos, mysterious phone calls, and thousands of people following the story in real time online.

In today’s Spooky episode of Macabre Mondays, we break down the entire Dear David timeline chronologically, from the first nightmare to the disturbing footage that made the internet question whether this was an elaborate horror story.. or something much stranger.
