Sam and Colby Reveal SHOCKING Truth About Afterlife... Dropouts #194

Sam and Colby share chilling experiences within the world of the supernatural, detailing various ghostly encounters that have impacted their personal and professional lives.

Accounts of intense supernatural encounters during investigations

During their ghost investigations, Sam and Colby have encountered numerous spine-chilling episodes which suggest the presence of the supernatural.

Experiences of a little girl spirit named Lucy and entity called Sally following them and causing disturbances

Sam narrates an incident during an investigation where he asked a demon, taking the form of a little girl, to attach to him. This spirit, named Sally, has reportedly been making appearances and causing disturbances throughout their investigations, despite different locations and lore not always involving a little girl. Their equipment, such as the obelisk, consistently referenced Sally in various instances.

Lucy, another spirit said to have followed them from the Stanley Hotel, and Sally, an embodiment of a darker force from the Sally House, have both become prevalent in their supernatural adventures. Though Sam is unsure if Lucy and Sally are the same entity, their presence has become a recurring theme in their encounters, highlighting the emotional complexity that's intertwined with these paranormal attachments.

Colby shares a terrifying experience at Bowers Mansion where he believes a spirit named Bernard slammed a door in response to him, while Jared Bailey cites validating experiences of seeing his deceased grandfather's spirit as a child and later receiving confirmation from a medium.

Rituals performed to cleanse themselves of dark spiritual attachments

After numerous eerie encounters, Sam and Colby discuss the necessity of conducting multiple exorcisms and cleansing rituals. Hiring a professional witch from a church to perform a ritual, the duo underwent an intense procedure that involved lying on a pentagram and having invisible spiritual attachments severed by crystals. Colby's recounting of having three attachments—compared to vines or thorns—removed by the professional signifies the gripping reality of these paranormal experiences.

Sam even conducted a ritual in a forest crossroads, traditionally associated with supernatural pacts, further emphasizing the need for detachment from these entities.

The conversation about the supernatural involves a wide range o beliefs and perspectives. Sam and Colby, along with their friends and family, explore varying degrees of skepticism and openness to paranormal phenomena, as well as diverse perspectives on the afterlife.

Differences between Sam and Colby's beliefs and those of their friends and family

Tara Yummy expresses belief in concepts like guardian angels and mediums, but is skeptical about visible ghosts, like "Casper." Sam Goldbach suggests that skepticism can limit paranormal experiences and notes that children and animals, due to their openness, are more likely to have such experiences. In contrast, both Tara and Zach Justice are more skeptical, requiring personal experiences to believe in the supernatural. Jared Bailey indicates that a convincing encounter for him would involve a tactile experience with something unseen.

Sam and Colby, already believers to some extent, had their belief solidified after a particularly eerie encounter, although they admit some doubts due to debunking efforts on the internet. Colby's parents had different reactions when he showed them raw footage of their experiences—his mom believes, feeling she has communicated with her deceased mother, while his dad, looking into his eyes, said he had no reason not to believe. Sam's father, despite being a skeptic, trusts his son's experiences but remains unconvinced without personal experience.

Tara admits to a personal experience at the Queen Mary that made her question her skepticism about the traditional concept of ghosts. Meanwhile, Zach only experiences paranormal occurrences in specific places, showing limited openness to the idea of ghosts. Sam, now more of a believer than when he started, still seeks more substantial evidence, while Colby yearns for conclusive experiences.

Diverse perspectives on the nature of the afterlife and what happens after death

There is a spectrum of beliefs within the group, from those like Zach Justice, who views death as complete non-existence, to those like Jared Bailey, who communicates with spirits suggesting continued existence. Tara expresses discomfort with certain knowledge about the afterlife, while Sam acknowledges such information might not be accessible to everyone. Tara believes in guardian angels, having been inf ...

Sam Goldbach and Colby Brock of the "ghost hunting" YouTube brand discuss their current success, future content plans, and their transition into a wide-reaching media enterprise.

Strategies for sustaining their "ghost hunting" brand and content

The duo expresses a desire to continue their paranormal investigations and challenges indefinitely. Sam Goldbach indicates a willingness to continue producing ghost hunting content even if it's not as successful as previous work, showing a strong commitment to the genre regardless of outcomes. He specifically states the intention to continue ghost hunting until they are quite old, mentioning the age of 85 as a marker.

Colby Brock discusses the challenge they face moving forward content-wise after their successful "Conjuring" series, questioning how they will top that experience. Despite this, they are exploring avenues like bigger and better collaborations, as well as reprising ones that their audience loves. Brock aims for them to be recognized as the haunted guys of YouTube, suggesting a targeted focus on longevity within their niche.

The duo's staggering growth from hobbyist YouTubers to major media players is highlighted by their successful theatrical release. A cinema company approached them, helping to transition their series from the small screen of YouTube to movie theaters across America. Initially, their intent was to premiere in about 10 theaters, but due to rapid sellouts, it expanded to 30. The reception led to their series being screened in every single theater in the United States with multiple showings. Theatrical demand was so high that other movies were even canceled to accommodate more screenings of their film—all for an event that was originally planned for just one day.

Colby Brock acknowledges that getting their series into movie theaters was an achievement that made their parents appreciate the level of their success. Similarly, Sam Goldbach believes it took until the previous year for their families to ...
