"Stitched her eyelids open to decieve her family." This makes me physically sick. He was a straight-up monster

#2 What a gut feeling the dad had. It saved his life and that of his son.

@skywalka5860 5 months ago

"She had a taste for human lungs" ...yeap that definitely took my breath away

Story 2: lesson for everyone is to never get in a car with someone, even at gun point. You’re 100% dead if they take you somewhere secluded. Run away screaming increases your odds of survival considerably.

It's unimaginable how scared and horrified Samantha must have been. There's no punishment fitting for someone who does a deed like that.

@PerlaNera729 5 months ago

The last story is brutal. No second locations!!! If they are threatening to kill you, do it right there fight like hell, bite, kick, scratch. Bite off the fingers ike it is a carrot. Pop out the eye with your fingers. You may kill me today, but you will be hurt.

I feel incredibly sad for the poor victims in these stories. Especially Samantha🥺 Her father must have felt such incredible rage and sadness after hearing what that monster did, so nonchalantly, to his daughter.
Devastating story.

@bkatbamna 5 months ago

The police should have given Samantha's father an hour with the last killer tied up and an aluminum bat in the father's hands.

"Granny Ripper" sounds like the name of a fart on one of those fart prank apps.

@smorgan5830 5 months ago

In regards to the last story with the kidnapping. The guy actually went back to the coffee shop to get her phone like 3 hrs after taking her. The audacity of that, and keeping her at his house with his family nearby.

@Caleb1874ya 5 months ago

35:05 imagine if HE DID NOTICE there was someone wearing a human face as a mask…. I mean… pretty sure he’s lucky to have not noticed and had nightmares forever… sheesh

@mbasatsetsana7034 5 months ago

Speechless. EVERY story gets 100% investment; professionally, personally and emotionally. You not only see it and hear it, but you feel it. That's the Ballen effect.

today I was recommended a vid from a channel called "MrBall Horror Radio". It steals your vids. I reported it as spam, but with how youtube works, typing here hoping you'll copyright them and take them down <3

Hopefully typing a comment this early after you published will help with this comment visibility...

never let someone take you to a second location, claw the guys face, scream, run, if he is going to shoot you, it will be better than whatever awaits you at a second location

Ever since MrBallen started, I still get a laugh everytime I see, “NOT A REAL PHOTO OF THE CUPS” 2:43 😂🤘🏻

45:22 I tell my son all the time, from the time he was old enough to understand, even if only a little bit, til this day and will continue to tell him that no matter what you never do what someone holding a weapon tells you to do. Even at gun point if told to be quiet and get in the car, you scream fight and run. I tell him if they plan to end your life you'd rather them do it there on the side of the road or wherever than go with them where they can do only God knows what to you and take their time. I tell him if you're lucky they expect you to be silent so they draw no attention but if you make a scene they'll likely just drive off. Sad we live in a world like this with so many evil people and a broken justice system.

every time I hear about Israel Keyes my body gets all the chills. This man could be responsible for so many missing persons cases and no one will ever no :( how heartbreaking

@olgter 5 months ago

Safety experts advise never going to a secondary location (a "second crime scene") with an attacker, as this often leads to a higher probability of harm.
