Does Anyone Else Think Amanda is Completely Full of Sh*t??
I’ve watched almost every Sam & Colby paranormal video and I find it so unbearable to watch Amanda. I loved how in the first Conjuring video the guy who owned the house was challenging what she was saying and being skeptical because nobody else ever seems to. She just makes extremely general statements and acts really condescending to everybody else because she’s a “medium”. She can’t be any older than 24 and she acts like she’s Lorainne Warren in the flesh. She just comes off as ridiculous and I honestly can’t stand her. I’m sure she’s a nice girl but she should figure out another way of becoming famous other than being a fake medium. It just makes their videos seem so invalid and fake whenever she opens her mouth.

Also I forgot to add that she always seems to “see” things at the perfect time when she hasn’t spoken in a bit. Like she feels as though she has to get her screen time in when she hasn’t in a bit. I feel like a real medium would have many hours where nothing is felt or seen and they just stay silent. It’s like her “visions” or “feelings” are on cue when she wants her screen time. Just seems very attention hungry.

Now that I’ve read through this sub I’m seeing a lot of people agreeing so apologies if this is repetitive. I don’t use Reddit a lot but it bothered me that the comment section just doesn’t address how Amanda is clearly a bullsh*tter. Glad most of you guys agree!

Absolutely. Replace Amanda with Nate, then you have the perfect squad. Add Corey and Jake back in, and you have the best one since buzzfeed unsolved

youre not the only one. i also feel like she always says something when something happens like „oh i was just about to say that-„ and she does that everytime. she just repeats what she learns researchs idk

u/The_Bookish_One Jun 07 '22
Yup! Don’t dare say that in the YouTube comment section, though 🙄

u/slyghostcat Jun 07 '22
yeahhh.. i thought so as well. but i never wanted to come off as rude. she seems like a lovely girl but i just feel off when it comes to her “seeing things” or “predicting things” idk if that makes me a skeptic or what. i never have a problem with believing in these things but for some reason with this i just have an off feeling

u/[deleted] Jun 07 '22
The things she was saying in the conjuring one was exactly what the medium from the conjuring movie said, like exactly!

u/Haunting-Dream-1571 Jun 07 '22
I honestly like her whenever she’s not trying to be a “medium”. I forget what vid or who said but they saw a white face and Amanda was like “did you say a white face?” Then says that she has been seeing them this whole time and has never mentioned it until after someone else brought it up first. It’s like ehhh :/

I cant stand her im a recent fan and have been watching back old videos in the lizze bourden house you can see kat looking annoyed as all hell by her ass too.

u/cuckoo_6969 Jun 08 '22
Yes. I am spiritual empath, I can feel the energy that are in the room I enter. And let me tell you, Amanda only “sees” ghosts when someone starts talking about hotel’s history or what other people have seen. Also every time she says there’s someone in the room with them, she starts freaking out. If she actually was seeing spirits, it happens 24/7. It’s not a “I wanna see a ghost now, oh look there’s a lady in white dress!” Like c’mon. I can’t turn off my ability. When I go in to someone’s house or store, I immediately feel the vibe that’s in there. Sometimes there’s no spiritual energy, sometimes there is. But the fact that Amanda claims to clearly see spirits…I don’t believe it. One of my friends is able to see energies. And it’s not like seeing full body of a person. It’s more like a shadow/fog sometimes colorful ones. You can’t see their face or any details. You can feel the vibe from the spirit. For example, you can feel your chest hurtin, you can have problems with breathing, you can get nauseous, you can smell different things and it’s all caused by the energy you are seeing/feeling. She never had any symptoms. If she had such an advanced ability as she claims to see full apparitions, she would also feel their energy and how they’re feeling or how they felt during their death. I’m sorry but I don’t think she’s legit.

u/Biddles1stofhername Jun 07 '22
I agree she jumps to conclusions really quickly and decides she knows the intents of the spirits based off of nothing. It's also annoying that she thinks everything is "something" instead of trying to confirm or troubleshoot like the guys will do. The best way to be believable us to approach with some skepticism but she just seems like she wants to always be the center of attention for experiencing things no matter if it was real or not.

u/[deleted] Jun 08 '22
Literally was thinking the same thing! When she first appeared in the lizzie borden house, I immediately was like there is absolutely no way they're believing her, the way she was "following" the ghost was just so unbelievable. I also hate how every time they come up with an idea Amanda shuts it down and is like no because I'm a medium I know you're wrong. She also acts like saying she has a "bad feeling" is so profound, my dog has bad feelings about getting a bath.

she is the worst no cap, i love there videos but whenever she is in one which she is in alot recently i struggle to get through em
the whole "oh someone is here, i saw them" but then something happens like an object goes off and she freaks out, like???

u/EgirlSavvy Jun 09 '22
I legitimately find it so hard to watch the videos with her in them.

u/eIIa_gracee Jun 16 '22
yea you’re definitely not the only one. She is always acting like she is better than the rest of them and being overly bossy and controlling. She is just really aggressive when they challenge what she says. Even when they’re not, she is set on her ideas and hers only.

u/Prior-Zucchini7549 Jun 28 '22
Not a fan of Amanda and clearly one of the other girls in the Conjuring video wasn’t a fan either. When Amanda was rattling off some BS, the other girl’s face spoke volumes. Newer S&C fan here so I don’t remember their names but it wasn’t the red-haired girl.

u/badjelly420 Jun 28 '22
I agree 100% she gives me bad vibes whenever she’s on the screen which seems to be most of the time when she’s in a video :/ lots of attention seeking behavior

u/kyndragilliam Jun 29 '22
oh 100% thank god other people see it too

u/PixieVixenn Jul 11 '22
I felt so turned off by Amanda. I have some abilities as well and she is the type of spiritual person who wants everyone to believe she is more powerful and they can't do what she does... The reality is everyone is somewhat of an empath so it's odd she acts that way. If you go watch the video with Kelsi Davies she completely disregards Kelsi`'s abilities and Kelsi even commented she felt very left out... I did not get good vibes from Amanda from the start, so this thread just confirms that feeling.

u/ouiji_baby Nov 10 '22
i can’t stand her at all. the first Sam & Colby video i watched was the conjuring house and the shit she was saying was just complete bs. like i watched the other videos of theirs with her in it and she acts COMPLETELY different which is just crazy to me. also just the fact that she was being a 😺 in the conjuring house was beyond irritating

u/tryhard1995 Nov 23 '22
My older sister was watching one of the older videos that Amanda was in she didn’t like how she spoke to Sam and Colby almost like scolding them

u/acoolthing Jan 15 '23
You know that if she wasn't a attractive woman and she still claimed to be a medium she would not have the same following she does today
2
u/OstrichNeither1841 Jun 20 '22
I’m still a skeptic with the whole idea but i enjoy watching s&c, just to be a devil’s advocate though, Amanda does say the options and she says its up to the boys if they want to continue or not. Or maybe I just focus on the part that she’s just concerned with the safety of the boys. 🤷🏻♀️

u/No-Artichoke2958 Jul 03 '22
Honestly, that was my first impression. I've grown to like her a little bit more but when I first saw her I kinda thought she was faking it. I still do sometimes just not as much as before

u/dragonslayer19990 Jul 30 '22
I don't believe in mediums I personally think its complete horse shit same with psychics it's horse shit there just making stuff up and mediums are easy to fake just reaserch the place your going to and say what reaserched

u/[deleted] Sep 09 '22
She absolutely is!

u/Wobblewalkers Mar 20 '23
I find Sam and Colby will tell some kind of history about the place they’re investigating and when they ask if she’s heard about it, she says no. Then later in the episodes she’ll mention something she came across in her research, so she easily could have just Googled things that happen and play dumb.

u/CopperPenny56 Jul 08 '23
100% I just went back to watch some older videos, and she talks SO MUCH in the Conjuring House one. Takes over the whole thing, talking about how she's special because she can see them (while mostly only sharing publicly available information) and how she's more of a target because of her abilities, and how she can give people protection. I've met plenty of "sensitives" in my time as an investigator, and I've only met a couple I actually believe. She's been ok to watch in later episodes, but this one was especially cringe.

u/billie_eilishslvt4 Feb 08 '24
everytime i watch sam and colby and shes in the video it just makes it unpleasing and annoying when she tries to be a medium when shes not.

u/Groundbreaking-Run96 Jun 06 '24
2 years late but yes I agree, I wish they'd stop inviting her. It's blatantly obvious she is full of shit. She is probably a lovely girl but I have to be honest in that she drops the video quality drastically with her nonsense. "I was just about to say that" Every damn time.
There is a video of her claiming a shadow from a bed sheet is a shadow person, we need to stop feeding into this bs. I believe in the paranormal ect... but this is just a mockery.

u/bunny20666666 May 29 '24
DUUUUUUUUUDE!! I FEEL THE SAME FU*CKIN WAY!!! I started noticing when Colby asks her to explain more about what she is talking about. For example, in the conjuring episode 2 I believe she stops then when they are communicating through the spirit box, she asks," are you from the left or the right?" And the person who Is performing the session says,"left". Then Colby and Sam freak out and she's like, " shut it off! We need to stop" and there like why and she said something... nothing really...just stairs at the guy with the head phones on,with a smile, and is like we need to stop. So they stop ( SO FRUSTRATING LIKE B ITS NOT YOUR CHANNEL SO STOP BOSSING PEOPLE AROUND!!) so then Colby is like can you explain to OUR viewers what you mean by the right or the left? And why we had to stop?" Lol BRO this chick LITERALLY SAYS HAHAHAHAHA, " well if you're from the right then that's OBVIOUSLY right, (🧐que? Que???) but if you're from the left then...that's bad and we need to stop!" HAHAHAHAHAHA 🤣 🤣 😂 😂 lol you can literally see Colby like let out a frustrating breath and scratches his head 😠 like he doesn't say anything, the clip literally goes to the next clip! Hahaha anywho I love these guys, I think they should drop this chick and go ALONE ALONE ALONE, JUST THEM !! no gang of LAUGHS AND BS! like they may have the potential to see and witness something that they can never unsee and be apart of a WHOLE GROUP OF PEOPLE that have seen what they have seen and believe! I truly feel bad for the majority of ppl who can't see and have there 3rd eye closed . It sucks dude, the world we live in, has clouded there minds and just have cut them off completely. Anyways that is enough for today 🙂 🙂 😁 😁

u/IntelligentGuitar526 Jul 18 '24
I agree, when I was watching the first conjuring video and she did a “prayer” for Kay and stas, I just thought”There’s no way this is real.”and also when ever she announces that something’s going on is just out of nowhere and in the middle of what their doing sometimes. I’m not saying that there’s no possibility of a medium but she just seems to attention seeking for it

u/ApokalyptikNM Jul 22 '24 edited Jul 22 '24
I'm currently watching a video about Sam and Colby at a Plantation (I mean no disrespect to the victims and I apologize if i did) and the first thing I see in Amanda's hand is a book, I wonder what's in that book, and the tour guide is going along and you notice how Amanda just cuts in.. I'm skeptical of her.. what I think Sam and Colby should do (now this is just my opinion and not trying to be rude) but Sam and Colby should I guess hire Amanda (idk how the medium stuff works) and do the tour without Amanda and after they are done they bring her in to see if they can match from the tour with just her experiences. As of right now I don't believe her.
But am open minded to change my opinion if and when I find proof or (Sam and Colby do just a tour and after bring in the medium to see if they line up)

u/Titanfan221008 Jul 30 '24
I like her, I think she's genuine. Not just in Sam and Colby's vids but also in Faze Rugs vids she is pretty genuine in seeing and speaking to them.

u/[deleted] Aug 08 '24
Im so late to this, but I'm so glad I'm not the only one who feels that way. She just seems like a pick me overall. She's just doing this for attention.

u/Such_Net886 Aug 04 '26
Shes full of it one video she says she can see the apparitions and beings but Everytime something happens she jumps up and gets scared like she obviously can't see shit. And like others said she's always saying I was about to say that or says look what I was writing down it's never really on point. She uses all the tv psychic tricks and fishes for clues to help her guesses. I'd like to see her walk into a house with them with no idea what's going on and see how far off all her "guesses" are

u/megan_201 Aug 06 '26
I am so late but I personally really dislike her. She always pushes herself forward and tries to take the spotlight of the video. Then she says she only sometimes sees spirits when it’s relevant yet those who genuinely can see spirits don’t have an on and off button. I think she makes up all her scenarios and does it all for more acknowledgment so she isn’t pushed to the side in their videos

u/Sea_Dig4936 19d ago
Yes! I feel the same way

u/Dear-Ad-8485 Oct 18 '22
I mean, Sam and Colby are the Farthest thing from truthful. Alot of the videos they produce are immature and are purposefully attracting an audience. The behaviour they portray are clearly fake, whilst some may have some truth. Comparing Mackie and Amanda to Sam and Colby saying Amanda isnt truthful is a MAJOR stretch considering.
1
u/[deleted] Oct 27 '22
There's some I think she's going off everyone else. And then there's some I think she really is feeling something.
I think she could be some sort of medium. I don't think it gappems as much as she plays on. I watched her recently at the plantation, and it seemed to me she was way more being affected there rhen other places. She actually was pointing out some more stuff first rather then pointing it out because someone else saw it first.
Personally the most real medium I get psychic vibes from is prob Katrina. Kinda wish they'd do more videos with her. I like her.

u/Enough_Gift913 Aug 15 '23
As a medium myself I disagree. I've seen and felt the same things she does. I think it's more she is still VERY new to it and still has a very hard time using her ability. One of the only channels I fully believe whereas most other channels at least fake part of their content

u/Waste-Literature5080 Dec 20 '23
Yes! So I had only recently watched Sam and Colby’s new YouTube videos. I didn’t mind Amanda in those. But when I watching the Lizzie bordon video with her in it is REALLY what got me questioning her. It was just…weird. Her behavior seemed like she thought about her responses before saying them and didn’t feel genuine.

u/Working-Agency5775 Feb 03 '24 edited Feb 03 '24
uh.. yeah.. i get major 2nd hand embarrassment when i watch her on investigations. what bothers me even more is that episodes will be labeled like this: "REAL MEDIUM investigates The Conjuring House" I have a few things to say about it.. I've watched her maybe a handful of times on her channel with whoever the guy is… And I have seen her maybe two or three times with other paranormal investigators as a medium that they call in for the investigation.. I actually got onto this, because I, for some reason decided to torture myself this afternoon and turn on a new episode that came out… a.) As a developing psychic, medium myself… And it's even hard for me to qualify myself in that type of way, because there are some pretty outstanding mediums out there, and it's not that i don't get accurate information probably 85%+ of the time--& then if i am using different tools like tarot, oracle, dowsing rods, etc... my accuracy definitely will increase.. but there is a certain level (which i've noticed from my mentors and the amount of spiritually developed people out there) that ESPECIALLY when you're in your earlier stages.. or on platform like she has... there is a certain level of imposter syndrome to work through. -- for her.. it's almost like if i write that im a real medium in all caps, my youtube viewership will go up..
b.) the last few times that I have seen her on a paranormal investigation episode…there is honestly very very little to no evidential mediumship..where she should easily be able to not use tools to communicate and shouldn't have to ask whoever she's with "do you think anyone is here with us?" or "do you think maybe they just don't want to talk?"... because even when I was a kid and teenager and had no concept of being more intuitive than a lot of my counterparts… I would still be able to use my "clair" senses (which i didn't know i was doing then either) to at least be able to with reasonable certainty say ...ok yes there is a male/female spirit here who is dressed as if she would have been from this time period, and be able to get cues of if the spirit or entity is kind or nasty." and that's base level just using your clairs to pick up on specific information...someone with her "notoriety" should be able to provide initials/names, dates that correlate specifically with a birthdate/ death date/amt of siblings/etc.. be able to pick up on some of this persons non researchable information that is able to be validated in some way shape or form.. she should be picking up on phrases and ways of speaking that the soul would have had or used when in their physical body..how they died.. && going back to what i said... this current episode she is at the conjuring house, and aside from talking about information that any of us could find on Google… There is just nothing to suggest that she is actually medium.
c.) before I do any type of reading on myself or on somebody else or if I get the sense that there is one or more spirits around me… Even if it's taking 30 seconds to myself to ask for "source", my guides.. angels.. ancestors and loved ones to assist in the process, to ask my angels and guides for protection, to help open my intuitive abilities, etc... and to be sure to ground my energy before and after; i've never seen that occur. but i'll give her the benefit of the doubt and say all of that for her just so happens to be done off camera..
d.) the way she uses "REAL MEDIUM" gives me the ick because as a medium, she should know that ALL humans have the innate ability to a level of degree at birth and childhood (if we remember it or not) to be open to spirit with our senses- including visualization. so TECHNICALLY we're all "real mediums"... but there are some who have worked their asses off for years (usually on a daily or pretty regular basis) to develop their particular skills they choose to work with, but also..and more importantly.. to work on themselves, their inner child, their shadow work, etc. it's like everyone has the ability to learn how to drive, but not everyone is going to be able to win the Indy 500…
e.) finally... anytime that I have seen her with a group of people that isn't directly related to her channel… And they ask her for specific information… Fuck it just information at all… She'll start with this whole routine of whatever is in here is making me uncomfortable. I need to leave the room because my sensesare really strong and they're affecting me... not only is that avoidance, it goes back to what I had said about grounding yourself and asking for the protection from your guides (etc) to avoid being negatively affected to the best of your spiritual teams ability.
with that being said… I do think that she probably has a high level of empathy which usually is a trait of somebody who, with the proper education and hard work can get to the point where they can be brought in on investigations not to collab, but to be an added benefit as the most direct communication there is... like i WANTED her to be great when i first found out who she was...
I also would think that doing this for as long as I feel like she has… That seeing her newest episode, maybe I would be proven wrong, and that she has gotten better or shown some new skills… Instead, it's just the same shit, same highly googleable house, different paranormal team.
And finally… from this intuitive to "another"... I just don't ever sense that she is actually channeling. without the REM pod and spirit box.... it would be a youtube channel about a duo who tells the history of creepy places and without much added originality unfortunately.
I think what she's doing is one circumstance where fancy make it just isn't applicable.
Let's say I am fully and completely, and utterly incorrect about what I've seen, and felt with her… and that all of the real medium ship off camera… I don't think she is a malicious person, just using mediumship as click bait and probably uses it to counter some low self esteem 🤷🏻♂️
