About Normal Ends Here
Normal Ends Here is a home for real stories of the strange, paranormal, and unexplained.
UFOs/UAPs and extraterrestrials. Cryptids, such as Bigfoot/Sasquatch. Ghosts and haunted places. Strange things in the woods. Glitches in reality. High strangeness. Experiences that people carry for years. Experiences with the unexplained ranging from positive to traumatizing and deeply unsettling.
This channel exists for those stories.
Created by Zach Cutler-Orrey, indie horror author of Screams of the Jungle, founder of Zenraith Tales and Publishing: Stories That Make a Difference—and co-hosted alongside His Excellency Chairman Meow (Zach’s supervisor)—NORMAL ENDS HERE shares reportedly true personal encounters submitted by real people. Stories may be narrated on the YouTube channel and shared anonymously.
Absolutely no AI-generated stories. No fake creepypasta passed off as real. Just real people sharing the moments when ordinary life suddenly became anything but ordinary.
But Normal Ends Here is about more than the unexplained.
Disgusted by recent high profile cases of violence against women (think: Cornell University), Zenraith Tales and Publishing: Stories That Make a Difference—a brand new mission-driven storytelling brand—has pledged a committed percentage of future net profits to support vetted organizations working to prevent abuse and help make the world safer for women, children, and vulnerable people.
The videos themselves are about the paranormal, the strange, and the mysterious. The kind of stories we love to hear around a campfire. But the larger mission of the channel is simple:
Tell meaningful stories. Do some good along the way. Create a place for the unexplained and real-world impact to converge.
Have you had a paranormal experience involving aliens, UFOs, ghosts, cryptids (bigfoot, mothman, chupacabra, mokele-mbembe, etc.), or something else entirely?? Or know someone who has??
Submit your story through the official submission form. Anonymous submissions are always welcome.

Who Runs It
I'm not an expert in anything. I'm just a neurospicy guy who loves his family, loves this topic, and answers to his cats.
I've been fascinated by the great mysteries of our world for as long as I can remember. Not because I can explain them — I can't. But because I believe these experiences are real to the people who have them, and they deserve to be heard without ridicule.
Video publishing schedule is entirely dependent on story submissions. It may be slow at first, with a long-term goal of at least one episode per week. Every story gets read personally.

Stories are presented for entertainment purposes only. I cannot verify their accuracy. Stories are on the topic of the paranormal/unexplained, not true crime or abuse survivor stories. Normal Ends Here is not investigative, legal, medical, or mental health advice. Nothing on this channel or site – or anything affiliated with Zenraith Tales and Publishing: Stories That Make a Difference – should be treated as expert opinion on any topic, paranormal or otherwise. Do not take me too seriously. I just want to create a better life for my family and I by exploring topics that I love, while hopefully doing some good along the way.
