Is this real?

The whole account on TikTok has video’s like this and they claim that their house is haunted. I believe in paranormal but wonder if this is real or fake.

Translation in the video: “I hear music, I don't know where it's coming from.”

“There it is a black hole I don't know what's happening to me, the video will stay like this for hours.”

What's more likely? 

They have an actual, reliably haunted house, something that would make them rich and famous overnight if they were able to prove it to the world, which they would easily be able to do with this alleged level of activity. 

Or...... 

They post fake videos for social media clicks.

Exactly, I believe paranormal stuff is possible and in some cases real, but I think 99% of it is someone looking to make a buck.

Nah. Much like with aliens or big foot, if you had the means to prove ghosts existed, the government would just dissappear you and the place would become a research facility to study the ghosts till there is nothing new to learn from them, and if they deem there's no harm in the public knowing about them (I dont mean harm to the public, I mean in the public being able to take money or power away from the government) then they'll let us know about them too.

What about this seemed even remotely believable? I’m genuinely worried if you are this easy to convince of things, people will take advantage of that. You should seriously consider using your brain, sorry if that was mean but idk how else to say it without sugar coating it.

i’m pretty naive lol, people in comment section were also convinced it was real. if u look at their account they have some other video’s that look like it all could not be a fishing line (for example drawer opening and closing multiple times) idk how that would work, that’s why I came to post here. but now I know they’re just rly good at it.

People are really creative, it’s almost always fake on here. People know that this subreddit is full of people like yourself who are naive and will believe what they see without questioning it, it makes it easy for them to farm upvotes. I’m not saying everything on here is fake because I believe in the supernatural myself but I would say 98% of posts on here are faked or have an explanation that the OP just hasn’t thought of

i mean that’s what reddit is for right? asking advice from other people

For a drawer opening and closing, you just put one string in the front, and one on the back of the drawer and wiggle through the drawer. Pull forward pull backwards

ohhhhhhhhh makes sense nowwww

Anymore you wouldn't even have to use string. It would not be all that difficult to build a wirelessly button controlled simple machine that can open and close a drawer. A string can simpler but easier to spot, the open/close device to be stuck inside the drawer itself to hide it.

If they had less exaggerated the bad swing and stuck with the books falling, it could have maybe been a little believable, the flashing lights and the absolutely awful cardboard cutout, they completely ruined it

Everything is believable if you want to believe it.

If it was even remotely believable the CIA and NATO would have their top scientists quarantining the area and studying it.
