Ever felt like your computer was... watching you? That a random glitch felt a little too personal? You're about to find out why. We begin with the bizarre case of a man who claimed a poltergeist was living in his computer, a hoax that ignited a firestorm online. But this is just the entry point to a much deeper, stranger rabbit hole.This is the ultimate investigation into the "Ghost in the Machine." We'll journey from chilling paranormal cases like the Dodleston Messages—where a family claimed to receive messages from the 16th century through their PC—to the hard science that can explain the supernatural. We explore how infrasound, a frequency you can't even hear, can physically make you see ghosts, a phenomenon so real it was a key plot point in HBO's True Detective.But in the 21st century, the ghost has evolved. We expose how elite hackers and state-sponsored adversaries create their own digital poltergeists. Through undetectable firmware vulnerabilities in your computer's BIOS, these modern ghosts can achieve ultimate persistence, watching everything you do. This isn't just a hoax or a story; it's the new frontier of cybersecurity.If you've ever questioned the line between the supernatural and the technological, this episode is your key.
