okay look we all know and love the classic “demon shane” theory, but just hear me out: slenderman shane. he's gangly. he's looming. he's got obscenely long limbs for days. if i had to place a million dollar bet on which cryptid-energy exuding youtuber is actually a cryptid, no contest im picking shane madej. you're telling me there ain't an ounce of slenderman blood in that man's family tree? i don't believe you.

WE’RE BACK BABY

Shane Madej is so good at ghost hunting because no matter how haunted a location is, he still carries himself with the same cheerful whimsy during the investigation, like a kid in a museum on a field trip

i miss my gf

“your girlfriend?”

no, ghost files

them: you better not be cunty shane madej when i get there

my silly ass:

watcher fans have few options:

history nerd who want his corpse to be eaten by wild animals, and seeks out dolls in abandoned buildings the way one does a cat at a party full of strangers

jock who believes in ghosts, thinks hair grows through the skull, and can't stop himself from making shit jokes

stressed foodie who seems normal until he opens his mouth and is always one inconvenience from committing arson

bonus:

nervous gay bartender who didn't have this in his 5 year plan

historical beauty guru who's willing to put ground up bugs on her face just too see what it looks like

shane showing ryan something fucked up on his phone, a series

My family: You better not be dressed as a chill Lake Champlain Sea Monster when we get home

My dripping ass:

the fact top5series is tumblr's first ever original series and its lead by shane and ryan like ???? I am so fucking proud of them holy shit they are paving the way!!

ryan “hates to see ghosts” bergara and shane “ghosts hate to see him” madej truly make the most absurd ghost hunting duo in existence. the contradicting synergy never ceases to astound me

the watcher fandom rn

the dropout and watcher fandoms are pretty chill most of the time except this week the dropout fans get to talk about wenis while watcher fans speedrun the five stages of grief

The real reason Ryan and Shane never get any evidence during their investigations

(credit to my sibling for being chronically funnier than ill ever be 😭💖)

I once again ask you to look at my horrible editing skills

i do love that in mystery files debrief shane and ryan are trying to keep the divorce bit going but failing bc they both just think the other one is funniest goddamn person alive is hilarious to me. They're supposed to act like they hate each other for the bit but Shane can't stop laughing at Ryan's stupid fucking jokes
