Actually Edgar’s story after death gets more strange as he was in financial distress and was actually buried in a mass grave as a pauper in Baltimore. Funds were raised for a memorial but it took several years to get something there and even the body they took out was not even believed to be Edgar because his body was to the bones already. The people had no way of knowing who it was. The strange things is that every year on his death date a person sets out flowers and leaves red lipstick near the grave. The graveyard placed a fence to keep people out. But also a raven sits on the grave every so often despite the grave being straight white marble. It gives most people the creeps at night despite being fully lighted. Heck even Edgar’s spirit might appear as a ghostly head at least in local legend.

Technically every good KZread video is a story

As someone who suffers chronic nightmares, I can 100% believe it can kill. There have been times I felt very close to being scared to death. I even have a heart monitor at home and nightmares are a big trigger for arrhythmia (the fear and breathe holding only amplifies this). I imagine that the chronic stress of adapting is what triggered the intensity of these nightmares. Now that I’m with a very loving partner for the first time in my life and feel safe, my nightmares aren’t as intense.

Hi, I am a medical student and I just wanted to say that his portrayal of this is wholly false and irresponsible. If you have nightmares and or panic attacks they will not kill you. It was discovered that the laotian refugees all came from a community with a history of congenital heart disorders. I say this not to ruin the fun of this video, but to hopefully bring you comfort in that what you are experiencing will not harm you suddenly like that. Obviously chronic sleep deprivation isn't good for your health, if that is what your nightmares are causing, but anyways. I just wanted to reassure you that you will be OK!:)

All from “bad dreams”. Technically it would be my bad dreams that gave me a stroke or heart attack and killed me but yes I do have SCI. Extreme stress can kill in certain circumstances, don’t be one of those doctors that discredits anything that isn’t textbook.

As a Baltimore native, I loved that you covered Edgar Allen Poe! Growing up, we were always told his death was syphilis & alcoholism-related complications.

As for saying Poe's death was scary because it was real, here is a fun fact: The military barracks he was trained in, upon renovations, found a body in the walls, dated to around when Edgar Allen Poe was there. So there is speculation that some of his works were based on real life, and he was venting his guilt into his works.

My uncle once had a terrifying dream in which he felt suffocated and unable to breathe. My aunt noticed him shaking and making noises as if he were choking. My uncle explained in the dream, he found himself in a bed surrounded by elderly people who appeared to be asleep. Despite his efforts, he couldn't wake them or free himself from the bed. Upon closer inspection, he realized that these people looked deceased. Although he became aware he was dreaming, he couldn't wake up, even when he tried to yell in the dream, no voice came out. He began to struggle for breath. My aunt, witnessing his distress in the real world, noticed him shaking and making choking noises. She quickly woke him up by shaking him. Following this ordeal, they performed a Hmong ceremony with jingle bells to address the unsettling nature of his dream. Lastly, my uncle said he was fortunate his wife was there to wake him up. As he tried to awaken himself, he felt the dream becoming darker and began to sense a looming death within the dream.

I had to do a video research project on Poe in high school he was a heavy opium user as well.

I actually learned about the Hmong deaths in my Cultural Anthropology class last year. There was a preexisting heart condition among many of the Hmong, which made them more susceptible to cardiac arrhythmia. Part of their beliefs is that if they perform the right ceremonies and worship correctly, good spirits will protect them from evil ones (It's been a while since I read the article so some of the details might be off). When they emigrated to America, many of them couldn't participate in their faith as much as they should have. A lot of the Hmong immigrants (mostly men for some reason) were believed to suffer from sleep paralysis, which involves a deep sense of dread and the feeling that something is weighing you down or watching/attacking you. They believed that the sleep paralysis was an evil spirit trying to kill them because they had no protection, and their intense fear triggered their heart condition and caused a heart attack. The only Hmong who died in their sleep this way had both the genetic heart condition AND suffered from sleep paralysis, and those who were able to keep up their participation in worship did not die.

When I heard this story for the first time, it was really surprising, but I also appreciated my grandparents even more for overcoming such difficult events. And from other stories of this event, ppl also think that Hmong people may have had sleep paralysis from their trauma, which is why any survivors would say that they saw "shadows" or "demons" when they went to sleep or were lying in bed. 12:21 And I don't blame Dr. Mike for butchering the hell out of these Hmong words lmao.

I adore Edgar Allan Poe. I have a book with all of his works. I have a shirt that says “we loved with a love that was more than love”. It’s one of my favorite lines.

Who else came back here after Dr. Mike's recent horse accident video?

I love these, I know animations are hard to make but please carry out making these. They are so fun to watch :)

A little off topic. But i just wanted to say thank you for how much this channel taught me about how doctors, nurses and hospitals work. Recently my grandfather passed away in hospital from injuries related to a bicycle accident. If it wasn’t for this channel, i wouldn’t understand much of what they were doing to first treat his injuries and after the decision was made, everything they did to make him comfortable so we could be there with him and talk to him for the last time. He was so glad that both his children and all the grandkids were there with him. And i was at ease understanding he was treated really well and as comfortable as he could’ve been… I can’t believe why I haven’t subscribed yet. Once again. Thank you dr. Mike

Pls keep this series a thing! Its so good and i love the animation and your story telling skills!

This was so cool! Would hope for more videos like this in the future!

This is one of my favorite videos youve made by far!

Doctor Mike has turned into a documentarist, and I can't complain at all.

Being from the field of Literature, I was always intrigued by Poe. He had a painful life actually and turned to excessive drinking due to his broken heart. His poems like The Raven, Lenore etc. are indicative of that. It's really sad that the literary world lost such a great author so soon. He had made some truly great contributions to the genre of Dark Romanticism. Will always remain one of my most favourite authors of all times😊 Also the Hmong men might have witnessed some severe war horrors which might have manifested in even more terrifying nightmares...... repetitions of which might be fatal😢

I read a theory that there was an election going on. It was a technique to get people drunk and get them to vote for a candidate, eligible or not. In Dr Mike's video the man does write they are near a poling place. And he may have gotten bad alcohol, like the poor scientist in Antarctica.

I experienced this myself, I died in a dream before and it probably was one of the most scariest and depressing experience I’ve ever endured.. I don’t want to tell the story how I died because it’s kind of weird but basically after I did die in the dream, I suddenly was back to my house but it was dark and nobody was there but me. It was like an alternative world where I was alone, I started feeling depressed because there were things I still wanted to do before I pass away, during that experience I honestly thought I was dead for sure I was even wondering what my close friends and family would think of me after I died. In the dream, it felt like I was there for hours and in the real world I had slept for 17 whole hours without waking up and after I did wake up, that’s when I realized it was all a dream and I started crying because of how grateful I was that I’m alive, I didn’t want to leave yet. After I woke up though, it felt like I just finished riding a rollercoaster, that’s how much adrenaline I had in my body and I was sweating. I’m also just so glad that I am not experiencing it anymore, I don’t know the reason why I experienced this but I looked it up and it was apparently just stress.. 😅

Please do more videos like this! :) I enjoyed the storytelling and animations. Is there any Halloween related spooky stories perhaps?

Doctor Mike, please keep this as a series! Loved hearing you story tell

I’ve had absolutely awful dreams when coming off of Zoloft cold-turkey or having withdrawal from illicit drugs. C-PTSD also gave me lots of distorted flashbacks in dreams. If a dream alone could kill someone (likely if one had a cardiovascular problem), a dream from Zoloft withdrawal would certainly suffice. I will never forget the feeling. It was as if I were an infant lost in space, with no one to save me even light years away. No one to here my screams, and no adult defenses to soothe the horror even a little bit. I also didn’t know about my life outside the dreams. Anything is possible in the mind.

I love this. Videos like these are my favorite

I once had a scary dream, well the dream itself wasn't scary, but the effect it had on my body was. I remember it just being a normal dream at first, where I was back in middle school. At some point in the dream I became so angry at the teacher, which I didn't like in real life, but also didn't hate that much, especially 10 years later. I just became angrier and angrier until I woke up with enormous chest pain, because my heart was pumping so hard. It would be easy to imagine, that you could get a cardiac arrest, with something like that happening to you.

How did I not realize I wasn’t subbed after watching doctor mike for a whole year

Hey, as someone who is Hmong, I am glad that you mentioned us. Even though I have no clue how to talk and understand Hmong, myself. Thanks, Dr. Mike.

The dreaming deaths were caused by guilt. They had to watch their families get murdered right in front of them. The women and older men didn't die from the same community because they knew they couldn't save anybody. The young strong men always thought they could have saved their brother or their mother and the guilt from not trying killed them. It's really sad.

The Old Hag in folklore. And sometimes associated with succubus & incubus. (I’d also add alien encounters). Anyway, the reasoning behind the folklore was that some of those that experience sleep paralysis either feel a presence and or see someone at the foot the foot of their bed. I’ve experienced this twice. I’d just wake up, breathing hard, couldn’t move, and something like a shadow of person standing and looking over me at the end of the bed. It only lasted a few seconds and I’d fall right back to sleep.
