The Hole: It Saw Him First

The Hole: It Saw Him First

A 22-year-old engineering student made a 4-minute, 37-second recording describing a doorless concrete room with a circular hole. He died eleven days later, two fingers removed, convinced something had been watching him. What did he discover in that impossible room?

In this episode, we delve into the chilling case of Zachary, an engineering student whose meticulous records of a recurring dream became a terrifying reality. We explore his precise observations of a mysterious room, the unsettling changes he noted each night, and the chilling premonition that something on the other side of a dark hole was aware of his presence.

Date of final recording: March 6, 2026

- Zachary made his first recording alone in his apartment after 11 PM, whispering to avoid waking his roommate.
- He described a room with no doors, concrete walls, and a circular hole approximately two fists wide.
- The air in the room had no temperature, a detail he noted in every recording.
- He woke one morning with soreness in his feet, as if he had been standing on a hard surface for a long time.
- Zachary calculated the room's dimensions and concluded that if real, it would have to be underground.
