Imagine being that intern tho. Famous last words: 'Was just a prank, bro.' Legend has it, he's still out there... making VHS tapes whisper.

All this cursed tape talk is bs imo. People love to add supernatural flavor to tech screwups. Makes for a good yarn but I bet it was just an edgy intern trying to be funny. And everyone fell for it lol

i saw a thread about this on a diff forum! didn't realize it was a known thing. new here btw, so this kinda spooky stuff actually airs?

DUDE. Yes! I totally remember this, it was so bizarre. I remember being at a friend’s place and we were just waiting for something to happen on the screen, like a hidden camera show reveal or smth but nope. nostalgia trip right here haha

been on the hunt for any trace of this for years. if anyone has leads on that supposed 'intern' or any tapes, dm me! this is like the holy grail of pranks-turned-urban legends.

This incident is a fascinating footnote in broadcast history. The intern's stunt, while irresponsible, presented an unintentional psychological experiment on the audience. People attributed meaning to the static and whispers, giving rise to various interpretations and legends about the 'cursed' nature of the tape. In reality, the effect was a testament to the power of suggestion and the human tendency to seek patterns and meaning, even in randomness.

lmao 😂 'This Episode Sucks' and then no content? Truth in advertising if you ask me. The intern's the only person in TV history to get fired for honest work.

Omg! That story is classic, used to be all over the creepypasta sites too. Somehow the whispering part made it viral, with peeps swearing they heard different creepy messages. Anyone got the audio or did it get wiped from existence??
