It's time I reveal the secret behind something you've been seeing…
You're not hallucinating. Let me explain.
Until just recently, YouTube has been letting only certain creators use their Thumbnail Testing feature (commonly called A/B Testing). I still see some comments about thumbnails changing so I want to explain what's happening behind the scenes.

The latest video (8/26) features two stories that sound fake but are 100% true…

But this was a residential neighborhood. There wasn’t a single cave for miles…

“Who’s Out There?” - Very late at night in an isolated rural cabin, a middle-aged woman was trying to relax by herself, when she heard a shuffling sound outside the window.
