DARK WEB: Dear David

In 2017, cartoonist Adam Ellis began posting a Twitter thread that terrified his followers. He claimed that after a series of horrifying dreams, the ghost of a boy named Dear David was haunting his New York City apartment. What he captured on film convinced people his experience was genuine. But one final tweet made them wonder if Dear David may have possessed Adam, too.
