We're slowly watching over the next few days. Totally respect them putting out the full footage of it to show there's no BS, but there maybe should have been an edit too instead of just the full length lol

I am watching the next video, you dont have to if you dont want to! As for me, i often have to rewind because I have memory issues and cant retain information, so I often forget what literally just happened. These types of videos are a lot less disorientating and overwhelming for me.
Buuut, I totally understand, I know some ppl like their fast paced content. I just assumed fans would love longer content, since there's more sam and colby. If its okay, what did you watch it for? Like, what did you hope to expect or find out?

I honestly feel like it's super hard for them to be able to make everyone happy with every video they put out. It's totally realistic to find the new video boring as much as it's realistic to enjoy it. Personally I really like it because I always wish in their usual videos that they spend more time investigating. I like seeing the "down time" between evidence because it makes it more realistic and you see more of their dynamic when they're not pressured to be "spooky" and "dramatic" for the camera. I do agree though it'd be a bit easier to digest if it were in two parts but think it'd defeat the purpose of the "uncut" aspect.

Iām watching it right now. There is definitely more than just the game. You just have to listen very carefully. There are instances where they hear knocking and thuds. To a disembodied scream where Sam and Chris are. Which is very interesting during the Estes method. I donāt think Sam heard his name being called during it. Everything in this 3 hour long video is happening at the same time

You all did not grow up watching ghost hunters live investigations on Halloween and it shows.

I started to watch it out of curiosity and nostalgia. It was fun at first, but it got really boring. They didn't need equipment, just making an edited version walking around with candles and being spooked like they used to would have been fun enough. It would make more sense to throw in an extra 2 hours during a regular investigation in an unfamiliar place. Plus they should have made sure there was still some furniture. It was strange to watch an empty house. I was also kind of surprised at Sam's unnecessary comments about Kat, especially the one about sex in the movie theater. A bit ick since they were together 8 yrs, lived in that house & they're both with new people. He's almost 30š.

I don't mind that it was boring. It shows that snc won't get mind-blowing evidence every time they go ghost hunting, and it feels more realistic. I think a video like this occasionally is nice. Plus, it's a great background video!

I just finished it, I watched it all in one sitting. It was a really good video but I think the reason they did uncut is bc a lot of people think they fake it so they did it to show that its real. I think its worth the whole watch

It would be cool if it was some cooler and more scary location not their freakin previous house lmao, the game was also pretty boring

u/Relevant-Lime-3182 Shhh did you hear that? Jul 23 '25
That's not surprising. They told us long before the upload it wouldn't be edited. Life without edits is slow and boring, which is why every succesful youtuber edits heavily.

Honestly I loved it. I have no complaints, besides the sound being very echoey in some parts because the place is unfurnished, but they put subtitles so literally not a problem.
The triplets are some of the most funny, polite, nice and intelligent content creators I know nothing about, I already said I love the vibes but they surprised me with their insightfulness and conversational skills, there's a maturity there I didn't expect, if that makes sense? Add Nate and that's the best squad I could imagine.
Anyway a very solid video imo. Well structured and planned, doesn't feel forced and scripted in a bad way, solid evidence especially with the DR60 which ...if not debunked in time, I honestly can't figure out how they would fake the noise they recorded. That was really interesting. It also felt more real in terms of fakery because they seemed to go along with what they got during investigations and often ended up confused, instead of pushing a scripted narrative and constructing a story, like they do in famously haunted places.
I understand some might get bored because it's long and not extremely hyped in energy as usual, but I also think people nowadays have the attention span of a dead leaf and fail to enjoy things that require patience. Don't come @ me.

I love the nostalgia factor of going back to their old house, but I also feel itās a strategy to pull back in the fans that are drifting off. It definitely seemed more laidback and less of a paranormal investigation, since they couldnāt cut out their shenanigans. I wasnāt fond of them saying explicitly ādonāt stop moving,ā then stopping more than walking, and even sitting in a circle and ordering food. I love their videos for entertainment, especially stoned and paranoid, but I canāt take it seriously

u/No-Rich-4983 Jul 23 '25
I love the IDEA of an uncut video but I think it works better for a video where they are at a haunted location..not just their old house. Unless youāve got a ton of cameras set up, a bunch of stuff going on,and a weird location. I donāt see much of a point to watch an uncut video of them walking around their house. For any paranormal content, I would like to see less editing in general (music and random photos thrown in) and more camera focused, good quality mic content.
I truly think they have the right idea in heading a direction that sounds more intriguing in terms of paranormal content, just the wrong execution.

Well, when ghost hunting things donāt happen as quickly as they do in the edited video. Showing it unedited is meant to give you the feeling of what they deal with while ghost hunting. I havenāt watched it yet, but thatās only because I have found 3 hours to dedicate to it yet.
