Ghosts exist in Fallout... | Fallout Lore 

For those wandering why the Dunwhich Building/Borers wasn't mentioned, it's because I felt it deserved it's own dedicated video and while it may seem paranormal, I feel it is more on the subject of "ancient god" but that's just me 👍

The Grandchester house is based on the actual Winchester house from the famed Winchester firearm company. When Mr. Winchester died his widow built a house like this, saying the ghosts of all those killed with Winchester guns haunted her so she had stair cases going no where and so on, much like the lore here. Another interesting tidbit.

Not many people talk about the paranormal aspects of fallout. Glad to see somebody do it.

I think it would be creepy to bump into residual hauntings of ghosts fleeing from the atom blast, hearing disembodied voices in panic, babies crying, people mumbling in fear and screaming from being burnt alive after failing to hide.

The whispering voices you hear in New Vegas's Goodsprings cemetery is creepy. It's only haunted with bloatflies and radscorpions, but when the eriee voices are heard after you take out the creatures, its quite scary.

Nuclear wastelands are scary, but ghost makes it even better... since many peoples from the past died at almost the same time

When I read "Ghosts" on the title I swear I heard no bark whisper in my ear "commie ghosts"

I’ve always wanted to play a fallout game where you’re a ghoul and constantly have hallucinations of areas as they were pre-war, with a stronger psychological horror vibe. Environmental storytelling has always been my favorite part of fallout

What's worse than ghosts? COMMIE GHOSTS THAT DON'T KNOW THEY'RE DEAD!!!!!

Ghosts? Yeah I ran into that one ghost in fallout 2 that was killed by rats or something near Sulik's tribe or some shit. Tried killing the rat. Shot the ghost with a plasma rifle. Blew her in half. That's how I started my career in post apocalyptic ghost busting.

It's nice to see another contender in the genre that is fallout lore

In fallout 2 when Anna Winslow's ghost is given the locket and the players speech bubble says; "This house is clear" is a reference to the movie Poltergeist, as fallout loves movie references. Also well done, this is an excellent video, thank you.

Just Imagine if Radiation not only wreaked the DNA, cells, and deformed the physical body, destroying the person's mind (like with feral Ghouls), but it also affected down to the Soul! It would be interesting to see radioactive paranormal storms as Billions of souls are denied eternal rest, and condemned to a limbo in earth, without even being the spirit of a human, but something much more dangerous and inexplicable. Yeah, I know that might not fully fit into the Fallout vibe, and even if it did, many would complain saying that it's "ridiculous". But it does fit into Metro, Chernobylite, and maybe even into S.T.A.L.K.E.R. worlds.

Sometimes on the crashed Scout Bus in Honest Hearts you can hear what sounds like very faint screaming coming through either a radio or maybe the pip-boy that sounds like the kids falling, though not sure what if anything triggers it. Seems like only sometimes it can be heard and it's very faint.

I'm surprised you didn't mention the dunwich horror ghosts from fallout 3 and 4.

I always loved the ghost encounters in Metro. Both games have great story telling but when you’re in an old creepy metro station and cut your light on and see shadows of people reliving their last moments before the bombs fell just brought it to another level.

It should be noted that the encounter in nuka world is also actually a reference to the winchester mansion a mansion believed to be incredibly haunted and often had doors that lead to sheer drops, stairs that went nowhere and halls that had seemingly no purpose, all with the soul (no pun intended) intent at confusing the spirits that she believed to be malicious

Your channel is underrated I figure you will grow massive soon please keep making content!

So glad I discovered this channel. There has been a void for good fallout lore for sometime on youtube.

that grand Chester house is based off the famous Winchester gun creator family, the real Winchester house was built like that with stairs leading to nowhere

The way fallout portrays supernatural stuff is so cool, they make it rare enough or subtle enough that it feels believable, you can see why ghosts could be considered by most as just myths, specially seeing as how many supernatural events are kind of open to interpretation if it is actually a ghost or something else, except for the ghost in Fallout 2, and Fallout 2 is so full of gags that many things are to be taken with a grain of salt.

Hearing about Post Nuclear Ghosts just reminds me of what Khan says in Metro. "The fires of Nuclear Armageddon have burned away Heaven, Hell, and Limbo. Leaving the souls of those who have died to forever walk this barren world." I'm heavily paraphrasing here, but the message is clear. The Fires of War burned so brightly that the Dead have nowhere else to go, but to forever walk this Tomb of a Planet.

One day this guy will blow up and will probably be one of the best channels for lore out there

I have had Lucy bug out and cause the entire mansion mission to fail. I'm guessing one of the traps must have hit her, causing her to be hostile (though she doesn't attack or actually take damage). As a result, she didn't follow her script and instead ran away from me like I was attacking her. I recommend saving before entering the mansion.

My game glitched in Nuka World and I was able to walk up to Lucy's ghost. All that happens is your character says "Hi" and Lucy stays silent. I did have a video of this on my old PS4, but sadly that systems hard drive fried on me and I had to replace the console. I'm on another playthrough now and if by chance it happens again, I'm uploading the video to yourtube.

The haunted playgrounds where you could still hear children always creeped me out

ghosts could be compared to nuclear radiation kinda. Volatile energy that persists for hundreds of years and are remnants of very powerful events. I’m glad there are ghosts in fallout.

Ayyy, Happy to see 76 get posted in a lore video, suprisingly I havent come across alot of that and I love that game suprisingly, happy to see it shown!

“And trick candles that mysteriously flicker to life” *FUCKING EXPLODES*

so wait, in fallout 76 your character canonically has a good soul? What if you kill a bunch of innocent people before you go there? will it keep playing?

I believe that the top of Goodsprings Cemetery is haunted as well. There's times where i wander up there and as it gets real quiet you can hear some strange whispers in the wind you can't really hear anywhere else. It could just be my imagination though...

I thought I was just high in honest hearts lol! I didn’t think it was a real ghost.

I love binge-watching your Fallout lore videos. Amazing!

Something I find fascinating, is that the Alien worshippers talk about being able to stop spirit interactions with the help of their "gamma ray". Possible correlation??

I like your style. Keep it up and Oxhorn will have a competitor. Far Habor is an interesting DLC. I would appreciate some background info, when you find time in your schedule. Thanks for your time.

Keep up the good work man, you're just as good as oxhorn

9:32 candles that flicker to life….*explodes*

When fallout become The Elder Scrolls

Honestly, credit where it's due for the Fallout 76 one. It's eerie, things get progressively more unnerving the longer you dig into it, and best of all, it's presented just vaguely enough to leave you wondering. An ideal ghost story.

Well done... I like the style of your videos. Keep em coming. 👍

10:37, when you are haunting the haunting ghost.

That one choice when talking to the ghost: "I think you need to turn off your stealthboy maam" lmaoo

11:08 When I had this encounter the AI bugged and started to act like a normal npc so it just started running away and down the halls when I tried to shoot it

Will you make a video about all the Dunwich horrors in the fallout game ?

Nice deep dive on the paranormal Fallout. Subbed a couple days ago after watching some other content. Got rewarded here big time.

I've been binging your lore and challenge videos. They were funny and interesting! Thank you for all the hard work you put into them.

I mean, we never had a Nuclear War of this scale... Who knows? Maybe so much force on the atmosphere and particles CAN open a portal to the other side! ...so it CAN be canon and scientifically accurate... i hope we never find out. Also, the Dunwhich places are Lovecraftian not Ghostly, so TOTALY Scientific!

There is a place in fallout 4 where you can have hallucinations of people commiting a suicide pact, i dont remember the name, but i think they where ghost (sorry for my english, not native speaker)

Just found your channel and happy I did! Very hard to find any other lore creators on here so keep up the work man :-)

Fun fact, in sanctuary, there's a chance that you can have a haunted bench-weight for the people.. if you have Hancock as your companion and you shoot at the bench while it's lifting weights on it's own, he will comment "wait, you see it too?" so.. ya..

Considering Ghost of She will be on fire if you spawn her while NOT on dutura, I think it’s pretty apparent that it is an actual cryptid that consumed the soul of a child.

The Granchester Mansion is clearly a homage to the Winchester Mansion in San Jose, California. For the uninitiated, the Winchester Mansion was home to the Winchester family, the same Winchester that created firearms. Sarah Winchester, wife and widow of William Winchester, was incredibly superstitious and thought that her soul could be captured if anyone took a photograph of her. She also believed that the spirits of people killed by Winchester rifles haunted her constantly. As a result, she had the mansion built with staircases that led to nowhere, windows inside the house that had no purpose, as well as other odd designs implemented. This was to confuse the spirits that she believed haunted her.

The Witching Hour runs between 3:33am and 4:33am. It's supposed to be a mockery of the Holy Trinity.

None of this was really new information, I am a lore junkie (hence why I am here). HOWEVER, these videos are SO WELL DONE. Fantastic watch. :D

I was waiting for a mention of Fallout 4's Dunwich Borer's ghosts. Despite the location being an easter egg/throwback to Fallout 3's other Lovecraft reference, they were still startling. Like, take me, for example. Fallout 4 was the first game in the series I'd played--I assumed it was just an action-adventure and became uber addicted to the game, to the point where I was staying up well into the morning most days playing it. Enter me, having just spent the last half hour not only clearing the quarry topside, but also playing guerilla warfare against that one mfing guy in power armor, and I can finally, FINALLY get that sweet mfing loot. Then I find a crack between two quarry boulders and a loading screen and suddenly, 'What's this?', MORE enemies to kill and loot to horde. Alright. Not to bad. It's like midnight. I'm the only one up. I start reading the terminals. Totally normal pre-war company negligence. Feel bad for the workers. Yada yada. I get to the 'boss room'. And more guerilla warfare of sprinting back up those metal stairs to get distance between me and my targets. Eventually kill them both. Alright. Nice. I see that beautiful chained door that I believe must have all the ACTUAL loot from this giant place. I loot the two corpses and COMPLETELY MISS THE TERMINAL ON THE REACTOR (which would have given me some warning to what was to come) I open the door, and it's not a treasure room, not a room of riches. It's a freaky fecking mine tunnel descending into darkness. I'm thrown off by this and find that first light switch. The first round of ghouls freak me out, but I kill them easily enough, but I don't really understand what's happening yet, so I move on. I find the next switch and think I'm good cuz ghouls don't immediately spawn. I take a few tentative steps forward and the screen flashes and suddenly I'm looking into the faces of a group of pre-war dudes on their lunch break for a second before it's back to the creepy darkness and the ghouls are crawling out of their hidey-holes and I say 'Feck this' and I run Not back, not retreating towards the light. But FORWARD My tired, scared brain believed that Dunwich Borer's worked like so many of Skyrim's locations and that, despite how big the cave or the dungeon was, there was ALWAYS an exit at the end of it. So I sprinted through the dark, panic jumping over things I couldn't see, completely forgetting that I have a Pipboy light in the panic to get away from the (always freaky) ghoul horde that was slowly growing in size behind me. I notice there's a smaller tunnel entrance further back, at the end of the large, open room, and I just run down it. Straight into another, mind-fecking flashback that is just so alien to me it's like I accidentally set foot in Outlast or Amnesia or something instead of what I THOUGHT was only an adventure game. Then I tumbled into the pit of water that would eventually lead to the best blade in the game. In the dark. Trapped by ghouls. And it was then that I decided to go back a save. I fear going back to Dunwich Borer's every time I replay. That felt like those moments in childhood cartoons where that freaky sh!t happens. Like the 'Return the Slab' from Courage the Cowardly Dog or something. It was weirdly out of place even beside all the rest of the creepy stuff in the game.

Now I think about it. The house kinda reminds me of winchester mystery house

Subbed man, these lore videos are awesome.

No word about Far harbors "Fog Mother" So I'm gonna assume it gonna get its own video, much like Dunwhich encounters. Sooner or later... Questions aside, loving the lore videos... Its nice to see some fresh eyes & voice on such topics, Keep it up! I feel like future fallout game makers, will need to look back on this stuff. If they want to fix the dmg done, to the fallout games.

I found that church in 76 by accident and constantly come back to just sit in that chair in the office. Very few places in that game I'm genuinely comfortable in and that's oddly one of them.

I want one these for next video Fallout Lore: Vampires (they’re in Fallout 3) Fallout Lore: Aliens Fallout Lore: Cannibals

I came across a glitch in the mystery mansion where I chased the girl and she stood in the corner of a doorway and I talked to her and my character said something generic that the player character would say to children in the game. She'd only stand there and I couldn't progress further into the mansion because there was an invisible wall.

Honestly fallout 3 should have implicated more horror aspects, it just fits the vibe of the capital wasteland

Fallout 2 had a ghost and nevermind he mentioned it as I was typing.

It’d be great to have fallout have the same kind of ghosts that the first 2 metro games have, they’re actually very spooky and set the atmosphere of destruction and death, seeing how life was before the bombs fell for brief flashes

8:30 im pretty sure that bear was real and really that big because Datura is not a hallucinogen it's a deliriant. It isnt likely make someone hallucinate a giant on fire bear, instead Datura like to make people forget who they are, where they are, that they consumed Datura, and it also causes an intense sense of dread that convinces people they're absolutely sure they're going to die. The fire that closes you in and the fire on the bear might be the designers way of trying to convey that sense of dread.

Yeah, if fallout add more ghosts and paranormal/supranatural encounters that would be complete package, not really a fan of horror games but after playthrough on metro trilogy i'd say, why not, it adds lore and depth to the game.

You missed some ghosts like in fallout 3 and new vegas FoNV in the good springs cemetery you can hear ghosts and in the Dunwich Building in FO3 there are also ghosts voices :P

Great video, love the detail and effort put in to really connect from fallout game to the other. Iv played and watched many videos and you are showing me new things still. Why I love these games

I've gotta wonder if Lucy Grantchester was truly evil or the way she was treated since a child made her go crazy. Edit: I say this because of what you hear while going through the attraction about her childhood. Edit 2: I commented this on a 3 year old video because I've been exploring Nuka World again and going through the building and hearing the story made me wonder. People back then people were not the best at dealing with children. Her father was clearly abusive and her mother wasn't any better. The poor girl could of had a mental issue that made her harder to handle which made her family just consider her a bad child.

I'm here! 😎 Great video, just posting a comment to show some support! Keep up the good work. 🤙

Lucy's house sounds like the Winchester Mystery Mansion. The heiress of Winchester Rifles was said to be haunted by the spirits of everyone killed with a Winchester Rifle and they would leave her alone as long as the house was under construction. So she always had a crew adding another room or hallway onto the house. There is a house near the starting vault in fallout 4 that has a poltergeist. At the right time the house will shake and objects fly around.

Fallout - New Vegas In "Goodsprings Cemetary", If You Stay There, For Long Enough, Especially At Night, Listen Carefully, You Will Hears a Ghostly Whispers!, Emerging From The Graves!.

The fog mother in far harbor always creeped me out.

11:17 That's pretty cool Sounds like the creators got inspiration from The Winchester House & it's history for this part

Witching hour is when the veil between worlds is thinnest

Love it, sound just like “Dark Souls” lore videos. Great job man!!

WHATCHA BE NEEDIN' INTENSIFIES

You did a great job covering these ghost encounters, but I must admit I clicked on this video thinking it was about the ghost people of the sierra madre lol

The Lucy Grantchester Ghost scared the crap out of me

Y’all should watch the movie “the hills have eyes” 2006, it gives alot of fallout vibes

I like ranger ghost a lot, she's cool

Perhaps a video about paranormal abilities? If I recall correctly, FEV had it psionic branch.

You know about the Commie Ghost? In the Mojave Desert by a liable source of Nobark

The grandchester mansion is an homage to the Winchester mystery mansion. The widow and heir tk the Winchester fortune beloved she was being haunted by all of the spirits of the men who her husbands guns had killed so she built endless hallways and staircases that went to no where to try and confuse the spirits.

Aw but he missed the Fallout: New Vegas one! The cemetery on the hill not far from New Springs is DEFINITELY haunted! When you dig up the graves to loot them, you can hear audible whispering from what I can only assume are the spirits being very upset at you for looting their graves

Historically, Witching Hour is indeed 3:00 A.M.

The witching hour is when the vail between worlds is thinnest the ghosts arent more powerful lol

Honestly another ghost you can see is in fallout nv lonesome road dlc you can only see him for a few seconds but it's a desert ranger with a anti material rifle. I forgot where exactly it is just because I don't remember the building name but you'll come out on top of a building and start going down the red grates that lead down to the ground before you get all the way down if you look left across from the building you'll see him but it has to be at the right moment or you'll miss it

u can hear whispers in the graveyard of goodsprings in fallout new vegas

I see ‘Ghosts!’, I think Ghost People of the Sierra Madre. At first I was disappointed this wasn’t a video on their lore, but watching this all the way through, it is very interesting. Btw, I really hate Dead Money, but only because I am absolutely trash at gaming and I simply cannot git gud. It is the only FNV DLC I never could finish. Those dang Ghost People and the Red Mist… Dog is cool though

Considering I fought the ghost of she in hand to hand combat she was a legend truly a worthy foe so I’ll believe the legend I hope she rests in peace now

No mention of the Commie Ghosts What Don't Know They're Dead in the REPCONN Facility. 0/10

The Grandchester house is based on the Winchester house which I'm highly surprised you didn't mention since it would help provide a lot of clues, not to mention the painting in the house is a person we already know from the commonwealth, Abbott.

I think that amulet you mentioned is the regalia of Ra that mistress of mystery item but I could be wrong

Love this stuff im really glad i found your videos respect and keep up the epic work.

I have recordings of disembodied voices at Goodsprings Cemetery. I'd consider that ghosts

Why did she look so young? She had the Child at Heart perk when she died.

i forgot where exactly it is, but in fallout 76, there's a cabin in the woods, near the starting area, where the painting on the wall spins, when you aren't looking.

Ghost are the last thing you'll worry about in such a scenario ngl.

Oh, you want supernatural: my 1st Fo4 character got his head blown off and survived. I only noticed a while after when my crippled head wouldn't go away. So then I'm all "Where the heck did I leave my head?" And eventually retraced my steps, at which point; my head appeared in my left hand. So now I'm like "Well... how do I fix this?... Facial surgeon!" So after goin to diamond city, and having the doc take a look at me; he did in fact sew my head back on. However, he didn't reattach my vocal chords apparantly, and I was rendered speechless; not even subtitles. One heck of a ride that. Edit: typos
