Do you think you can make a thread that isnt just a video? You shouldnt be posting videos and saying "look," the T&Cs state you should tell what we are looking at and give your OWN opinion instead of asking people what they think. I have seen two of your threads this morning that can be made into very interesting threads if you did a little work on them.
You will get more people interested in your threads if you post some info as to what we are watching.


Ok there must be something wrong with the youtube codes..mmm I tried to post all 5 for you and they arent showing up.

Skilz a belated welcome.

Please take mblahnikluver's advice in it's intended way: as a constructive critique. We were all new once, and we all understand that it's not the easiest thing getting your first few posts looking slick. But it's not that hard either.

Think about what you want to say and why you want to show us this particular vid(s).

I think you'll find most people will be very interested to hear your own personal take on the material you're presenting to us.



Good luck with it all

cheers guys ill take it all on board this site is so friendly its ace

Watching it right now. Here it is in full.

topdocumentaryfilms.com...

Here is some information I found while reading about the tube and it's origins.. No wonder it's haunted. It seems its built on plague pits from the Black Death back in the 17th century when it hit London. It also seems, many have died building it and some have committed suicide in it and it has even had an attack in 2005. It also seems fire and a bomb have caused multiple deaths.. Wow I bet that place is jumping with spirits!

Ever since the first line was opened in 1863, however, one of the major headaches facing the engineers and the army of construction workers commissioned to expand and develop the network has been the presence of huge burial pits dating back to the summer of 1665 when London was ravaged by an outbreak of bubonic plague (a.k.a. the Black Death).

Since no-one knew for certain how many of these plague pits were actually dug, nor where they were located with any degree of accuracy, it was inevitable that as the railway network continued to expand more and more of these 17th century plague pits would be disturbed often without any warning. This is exactly what happened when the Victoria Line was being constructed in the 1960s. A huge tunnel boring machine ploughed straight into a long-forgotten plague pit at Green Park traumatising several brawny construction workers on site.

To the southern end of the London Road Depot (Bakerloo Line) there are two tunnels. One exits onto the running line between Lambeth North and Elephant & Castle stations. The other is a dead-end tunnel designed to stop runaway trains. Behind the wall, however, at the end of this particular dead-end tunnel is yet another one of London’s many plague pits.

London Underground or Tube Haunted History

Ah man that's an amazing life-changing documentary. I saw ghosts once when qigong master Chunyi Lin was giving his chi-emitting lecture and I had been training to open my third eye. He says the spirits always come to him so they get help to find peace.

Ghost pollution is considered a real problem by Taoists.

Still these stories are totally mind blowing -- completely believable. Real ghosts!!

cheers guys im glad ur finding the doccumentry as interesting as i did. its crazy that the tunnel system would even carry on been built even if it meant boring through plauge pitts. where i live in york we have a few grave stones from people who died from the black death. the city council are so afraid that it if they move them it could start the plauge off again infact so much so they actually built two roads around them rather then just moving them and saving thosands off pounds

Hi Guys

That is a great video , i have watched it a couple of times , there are alot of tunnels in the underground that are not being used anymore and are said to be haunted , people say that there is even a tunnel that goes from buckingham palace to their scottish residence and that prince Andrew tried to use it and was banned by the queen because she wanted to keep it secret.

Its no wonder that there are so many reports of hauntings when you take into consideration how many bodies were removed during the building and alot of them were found in underground graves that were used during the plague .

Thanks again
regard
ian

Interesting personal accounts and interviews. Actual footage of the activity itself would be awesome!

OP, I know that's not available to you....probably it doesn't exist.

Just sayin......it would be awesome.

Flag for original content. Haven't seen this on ATS before, or anywhere for that matter. Good find.

hey there thanks alot im glad u enjoyed it i thought that it was a really good documentry and not sure about u but it kept me hooked from start to finish

Really interesting. Glad I watched this after I left london. Lived there for over a year and used the tubes constantly. A lot of the time I would be gettin the last tube from work and it would be really deserted. In fact some of the stationed mentioned there I used nearly everyday. I always found elephant and castle to be quite scary for some reason( maybe because it is a very deep station) and admittedly, although most the time I felt very safe, there were times when I have just ran because I was overcome with fear.
