Operation Ghost Stories: The Secret Russian Plot Hiding on Google Images
In June of 2010, the FBI arrested 11 Russian nationals for working as unregistered foreign agents in a ground breaking cold war style spy roundup called Operation Ghost Stories. This CIA and FBI task force spent close to a decade on this operation, watching these Russian spies, including the now famous Anna Chapman who had gotten into the most elite parts of society.
One of the overlooked aspect of this case was a novel new type of spycraft called steganography, which allowed them to hide secret messages inside publicly available images even viewable through a search of Google Images.
Today on MidnightDocs, let's take a second look at this case and the technology uncovered and what it means for the world of spies and spying in the modern world.

Since the late 20th century, a mysterious hum has been recognized by people all over the earth. In the first episode, we explored the Windsor Hum, a mysterious acoustic phenomenon that was heard from Windsor, Ontario in Canada. But underneath all sorts of localized sound phenomenons like this, is a hum that we think goes back, though unrecognized, for perhaps all of human history. Today we’ll speak with Dr Glen MacPherson about the mysterious World Hum.

Ever since he was strategically placed in the seat of power by Stalin and the USSR in 1945, the founder of North Korea, Kim Il Sung has been the subject of countless conspiracy theories. But one theory that many believe today is rooted in so much historical fact that it's worth diving into the historical record to find the truth. Did Kim Il Sung steal the identity of another man to get into power?
Was Kim Il Sung an imposter?

Recently, my good friend @Oki's Weird Stories released a 30 minute documentary we collaborated on called "How I Infiltrated a Bizarre Conspiracy Cult" about how we flew to Las Vegas to investigate the "Secret Space Program" or SSP - a strange movement full of people convinced that they are genetically enhanced super soldiers fighting aliens and insectoids on Mars for hundreds of years at a time and then de-aged back through time. What's even stranger is how many people BELIEVE them.
In Oki's video, there was TONS of stuff that had to be left out for the sake of time, and I wanted to just make a video where we could really let loose and talk about the insane experience it was being around all this stuff. Hope you enjoy!

In 2014, news media around the world began reporting about a hotel in Onitsha, Anambra State in Nigeria, saying police had shut the hotel down after it was discovered that the restaurant was serving human flesh.
This video began production in June of 2020 as what I thought would be a fun little short video debunking claims about the ludicrous notion that cannibalism restaurants actually existed. What I stumbled upon turned this into a fun short video with a short turnaround to improve my upload frequency into the single craziest story I think I've ever uncovered.
What you'll find in this film you're watching today is a story about how rumors or a cannibalism restaurant were potentially used as cover for government corruption leading all the way to the highest office in the Nigerian government. It's a story of hostile business rivalries where a potentially corrupt politician who ran as Vice President of Nigeria in 2019 used his significant influence to sabotage and destroy a business rival. A politician who was the former governor of the state, accused of embezzling millions of government funds into his family's private business, was impeached, and used his influence to reinstate him in his government position while the people of Nigeria adore him, completely clueless to the character of the man he really might be.
This video was an enormous undertaking and I genuinely put everything I had into it. If you at all feel like I deserve a tip, I would welcome the support with gratitude (think of it like purchasing a ticket for admission haha)

I owe an eternal debt of gratitude to my wonderful friends on this YouTube platform.
Right at the very end of making this, after everything I had already gone through to make it, right before I finished it, my computer had a catastrophic meltdown and refused to boot. I spent days trying to get it to turn on so I could finish this video finally, and since I had lost my job back in June, hope was qui

The Beast of Gevaudan is a mysterious beast that terrorized the countryside of Southern France in the 1700s. Over the course of three years, it killed and devoured upwards of 300 people. One of the first ever international news stories, its final end gave rise to the modern tales of werewolves. To this very day, the ferocious Beast of Gevaudan (La Bete du Gevaudan) remains unidentified.
