A very warm welcome to all the Spooks and Specters tuning into the stream! As always, itās me, |__________| and tonight, we are going to be diving headfirst into the world of the supernatural. Live and unedited, with only the occasional ~spooky~ sponsorship break.
All my long-time viewers will know that today is Spectral Spottersā three-year anniversary, and just like always, Iāve got something special to kick off the new year of paranormal investigation.
Tonight, we wonāt be dropping by any of our usual haunts, or even trekking to a new site. This case is going to take place right here, in my own home. Because tonight, we are going to contact, captivate, and maybe even contain, the infamous, Cyber-Wraith!
Thatās right! Although there is quite a bit of discourse on whether or not the Cyber-Wraith is a true ghostly spirit, or simply a rather convincing program, I am completely confident in the ethereal-ness of these claims. As I hope many of you have seen, my good friend The Apparition Observer recently released a video attempting to interact with the Cyber-Wraith and came to the conclusion that the āghostā was simply elaborate malware designed to get a little attention.
That being said, Iām not entirely convinced that we in the ghost-hunting community can just write this one off, so Iāve pulled out all the usual stops, plus a few extra aids, in hopes of getting an in-house appearance from our special guest.
So without further ado, letās put on our EMF Readers, break out our Ouija boards, and strap in for a bumpy night because the search for the Cyber-Wraith starts right now.
Alright! To catch any newer viewers up to speed, the Cyber-Wraith is a relatively new paranormal claim. This blog site, link pinned in the comments, started receiving messages from an unknown source, claiming to be a long-time user of the network. But, in addition to various public messages about their own death, journeying to and from the afterlife, and general threats of violence, the Cyber-Wraith has been documented affecting the computers of anyone who directly messages it. And in addition to that, there are rumors floating around that the Cyber-Wraith can actually manifest when it so chooses.
So, Iāve backed up all my files, cleared any sensitive information from my PC, and firewalled my Wifi connection to hell and back. Which means, Iām ready to send a DM.
Now, before I send this, I want to make one thing clear. Not only is actual malware no joke, but hostile spirits can also be very dangerous. I have made some large efforts to stay safe, whether it be from phishing scams or phantom attacks. So, while Iād never ask my watchers ~not~ to try this at home, I must insist that you take the necessary precautions and triple-check your work before you attempt to contact any spirits. Technological or otherwise.
Okay! With that out of the way, letās send a message!

{typing aloud}
Hi! My name is |_____ | and I run a little ghost-hunting show. Iād love to talk with you, if youād be up for it!
Nice! We got a quick response! A few hunters have gone for hours without getting so much as anything, so itās nice to make some early headway.
[keyboard clacking]
{typing aloud}
Yes, I run Spectral Spotters. Youāre actually live, right now! Anything to say to the camera?
It looks like the Cyber-Wraith is a fan of the show! Or, itās already managed to crack into a little bit of the info Iāve intentionally left on this device. Donāt worry if itās that second one, Iāve implanted plenty of faulty facts on my computer so we can see if this is just a program reading integrated files.
Ooh! Can everyone see that? The Cyber-Wraith just responded to me speaking! Now, The Apparition Observer who frankly, knows a lot more about computer stuff than me, thought this could just prove that the malware can utilize the microphone in my monitor, but Iām feeling pretty optimistic.
So, I guess that means I donāt have to type out my messages anymore, right Cyber-Wraith?
Iāll take that as a yes.
First things first then, as far as I can tell, youāve never referred to a name for yourself. Or much of any allusion to gender identity. Are you okay with being called, The Cyber-Wraith, or is there a better name I can call you?
Youāreā¦ not responding very quickly. Is it a touchy subject or..?
Oh! Iām so sorry to hear that. So many hunters donāt make an effort to ask for formalities, but I hadnāt considered Iād be the first.
That is absolutely fine! Lots of spirits have a hard time recalling details of their past life. If you canāt remember a preference then I can just keep calling you Cyber-Wraith! Maybe, I could even give you a nickname!
Well then, Iād be glad to oblige.
Now, onto the meat of the interview. Youāve talked about how you died on multiple occasions. Would you be willing to run us through it?
Do you think thatās what keeping you tied to the mortal plane, or are you more of a wanderer-type ghost than an unfinished business?
Thatās good to hear. Iām glad youāve come to terms with it, even if that was admittedly, a little gruesome. Honestly, I think Iād hold a bit of a grudge.
Ever since you first messaged me, Iāve been picking up a dull reading on my electrometer. Is that background static, or are you actually on my side of the network?
Itās totally okay if you donāt know. I imagine you havenāt had a massive interest in a conclusive study on the subject. Really, Iām just looking for a segue into my next point.
Well, there are plenty of rumors, some more stable than others, that youāve influenced objects in the real world and even manifested in the visible light spectrum. Do any of those rumors have some validity?
Right! You said as much with Observer. But, when prompted you didnāt want to manifest on the spot. Observer thought it was because you couldnāt, but looking through all the footage, it seemed more like you were just overwhelmed. Maybe even a little angry that Observer was being so dismissive. So, I was hoping that youād be a little more open to it now, especially with what Iāve set up for you.
Can you see my room right now?
Then Iām sure youāve noticed this very suspicious sheet! And now that Iām sure everyone watching is tearing their hair out about it, itās time to reveal what's beneath!
[fabric rustles]
Ta-da! A custom-designed haunting doll! Complete with old-timey copper wiring, various simple computer systems I looted from old consoles, and hopefully, a semi-functional possession entity.
I was hoping that if you were up to it, youād let me plug in the doll and you could take it for a spin! Then you could lift up a pencil or pose for some pictures on my stream, and get to stretch a pair of legs for once in who knows how long! Does that sound good to you?
Youāreā¦ worried? About what?
Oh! I totally see why you might think that. But I promise, I have no intent of trying to catch you or anything like that! The show is called Spectral ~Spotters~ for a reason. I never capture sentient ghosts. Only relocate the ones who ask, and do my best to detain the ones who present an active threat.
Yes, I have heard rumors of you reportedly becoming violent. But not only do I have no real proof of those, I suspect that if any of them were true, they were likely caused by a string of negligent actions taken by the hunters. With how youāve interacted with me today, Iām not in the slightest bit worried about any of that.
I want to emphasize that you donāt have to do this. For starters, if you just did a couple of tricks through the screen, that would be just as good for my live stream as you possessing the doll. And if even that would be too much, I would never hold that against you. Iām the one sliding into your DMās. Iām not about to start making demands.
Really? Youād like to try it out?
Great! Just give me one second and Iāll plug it straight inā¦
There! Itās all yours!
Woah! Easy there! Your skeletal system is mostly plush, so quick movements might not be for the best.
Got a handle on it?
Oh! I hadnāt even considered youād be unable to message me while possessing the doll! Iāll try to keep questions on a yes-no basis.
While youāre getting the hang of tangible existence, Iād like to take a moment to plug my Patreon! I know, I know, no one likes the brand integration, but donations from specters and spooks like you are what keep this show going! If youād be willing to pop into the description, you may like the sound of some of the rewards from upper Patreon tiers, such as pre and post-stream footage, VoDs of every stream Iāve ever made, and exclusive repeat interviews with some fan-favorite ghosts!
And if that sort of donation isnāt your speed, you could also check my linktree to keep an eye on the current Spectral Spotters merch! Ranging anywhere from socks and hoodies to my personal selection of ghost-detection equipment!
Alright! Sponsorship section is over! Wraith here looks a little antsy about all of this, and honestly, who could blame them? But before we sign off, I would love to get a little movement on tape, assuming youāre up for it.
Thanks so much! I owe you one. Now, Iāve got some pens that shouldnāt be too heavy and some paper right here. In hopes to prove you arenāt just a motor system shoved into a doll, could I ask you to draw something for the stream? Whatever youād like, although, itād be nice if it was safe for work.
No need to be shy! Everyone watching knows I am absolutely hopeless when it comes to art, and Iām going to be drawing with you. Even if you arenāt the best artist, and the plush arms slow you down, whatever you draw will look like a masterpiece next to me!
Glad I could convince you! Now, Iām going to be drawing everyoneās favorite ghost-hunting cat, Jack Oā Lantern himself! For everyone worried on stream, Jack is in perfect health, but he wonāt be appearing tonight. A plush toy body plus cat claws equals one unhappy ghost.
I think Iāll start with the earsā¦ no! His cute little nose! Then Iāll move out!
In all honesty, I just wanted to say that so everyone watching would be primed into seeing a cat in my horrendous chicken scratch. Fortunately, it looks like you wonāt be needing that handicap, Wraith! Even in a possessed body, you are moving incredibly. Iām a little jealous, actually, I could never draw a curve that smooth!
While I struggle to make some fur, Iād open my chat to its usual Q&A! Feel free to ask Wraith or I anything, and my mods will sort up the best prompts and send them over to me! And of course, Wraith, if anything makes you uncomfortable, you can simply pass, no questions asked. Iām thinking you could tap the paper twice to signal that, but whatever works best is fine.
Ooh! Great question! Yes, Wraithās temporary body ~is~ one of the āhaunted dollsā that we bought a few episodes back. Great eye on that one!
Hereās a question for you, Wraith. Are you white-blue colorblind?
Interesting! Rather odd for a wandering ghost, but I think that just makes you all the more special!
Another question for you, Wraith. Can you go anywhere online, or are you stuck in your chatrooms?
Good for you! So many ghosts get stuck in one spot, but I think itād be so much more fun to roam around a little!
For dinner tonight, Iām going to be having some spaghetti. And knowing Jack, heāll probably be swiping a few of my meatballs in addition to his meal.
Are you done drawing, Wraith?
Wow, you really blew me out of the water. Iām only half done, and I think Jackās portrait was going to turn out a bit lopsidedā¦ Oh well, heās a weird little guy, I think this suits him.
I like your drawing! Itās your Elsum, right?
Well, it is very pretty. Maybe someday, youāll tell us about it! But that is just about all the time we have tonight! Thank you everyone for tuning in, and if you liked the video, nothing is more helpful than sharing it around. Have a ~spooky~ morning, evening, or afternoon, and remember, Never Stop Searching!
Alright! Thatās the stream, Wraith! Iāll leave the cameras rolling for the post-stream footage, but thatās edited, so no worries about any bloopers now. Thanks so much for joining me, I had a great time!
I imagine keeping a possessed form isnāt the easiest thing you can be doing, so, Iāll plug you right back in and you can head out of the doll whenever you feel like it!
Oh! You recalled on your own! Nice! And good to know you werenāt entirely reliant on my word! Iād hate to have a power imbalance at work.
Well again, thanks for coming! I try to keep my relations with ghosts as friendly as possible and since we were streaming, I was driving the conversation pretty hard. So, is there anything youād like to say to me before I go pull Jack out of whatever nonsense heās no doubt gotten himself into?
Thank you, but really itās the least I could do! Youāre a person too, you deserve a little civility.
Iām so sorry to hear that. I really try to campaign for a little tolerance of after-living creatures, but I know so many people can be more than a little rude. And I do want to apologize for The Apparition Observer. Itās no excuse, but theyāve been under a lot of stress lately, and they took some of it out on you.
No. You didnāt do anything wrong. You were more than accommodating, and Observer knows that. Iām sure that if they watch my stream and realize you werenāt just a program, theyāre going to feel awful. Not much consultation, I know but, itās something, right?
Well, if itād make you feel any better, Iām sure we could get you an apology too!
Of course! In fact, we might be able to get that sooner rather than later.
Well, you said you could leave the chat site, right?
Right. Now, I donāt want to profile you too hard, but generally, a ghost with no unfinished business, sticking around the mortal coil, talking to the living, appearing on shows, answering questions from a live streamā¦ itās all the mark of a very social ghost. And Iād imagine you havenāt gotten many opportunities for pleasant interaction, what with the average stigma.
So, if youāre up to it, I was going to play some games with Observer and a couple of our friends tonight. Weād love for you to join us! You could get your apology, maybe make some new friends, and, if youād like to try your hand at it, we desperately need a fifth for comp.
That sounds lovely! I thought you could use my streaming PC and I could-!
[crash interrupts]
Oh no. Jack must be getting bored of me ignoring him. I need to go make sure that wasnāt something expensive but, Iāll DM you again in a couple of hours if thatās good with you!
Sounds great! I canāt wait for you to meet everyone, Iām sure weāll-!
[crash interrupts]
Right, Jack is being obnoxious. I almost forgot. Bye, Wraith! Glad to meet you!
[door opens and closes]
{muffled yell}
Jackson Oliver Lantern, if that was my new display case, I swear to God, I will send you straight back to the cuddly orange hell you crawled out of!
