Inside the investigation

For this Daruma-san attempt, I explain the Bath Game legend and record the bathroom experiment. Listen to the original audio and distinguish the ritual story from the sounds the recorder picked up.

About this recording

Original published title: Is the Daruma-san Bath Game Ritual Real? My Experiment

YouTube publication: 2016-11-08 · Duration: 26:50

Recorded experiments and folklore accounts are presented for review. A reported experience, an apparent board sequence and a sound from a scanning radio are different sources and should be evaluated separately.

Read the original YouTube description
I test the Daruma-san bathtub game, explain the ritual as an urban legend and use an EVP recorder to capture sounds in the bathroom. I'm Tim Wood from LiveSciFi. This is the original investigation or on-camera account—not a dramatized reenactment. I keep the attempted communication, equipment checks and reactions in context so you can review what was actually recorded and decide how to interpret it. 🔎 PARANORMAL EVENTS & EQUIPMENT TO REVIEW • RITUAL: I explain the bath-game story and position the camera for the experiment. • EVP: I record and replay possible responses. • AUDIO: I hear tapping and an unclear vocal sound while asking questions. • OBJECT TEST: I ask for a bottle to move but no verified movement is documented. • ENDING: I discuss whether the ritual produced anything convincing. ⏱️ YOUTUBE CHAPTERS — EVP REACTIONS & KEY MOMENTS 0:00 Daruma-san Bath Game Introduction 1:21 Discussing the Legend 2:24 RITUAL: Repeating the Words 3:42 Washing and Setup 5:50 RITUAL: Feeling Watched 7:42 EVP: Reviewing Audio 10:45 Reaction to the Experiment 13:38 EVP: Possible Phrase 17:53 VIEWER REPORT · ROOM SOUND: low growl 18:27 VIEWER REPORT · ROOM SOUND: possible growl 20:30 Viewer Questions 25:43 Closing the Broadcast 💬 COMMENTS & VIEWER OBSERVATIONS Several viewers joked about waiting for the bottle to move and noted they were nervous watching from their own baths. 🎧 EVIDENCE REVIEW NOTES • VIEWER REPORT timestamps are shared by viewers and are not independent evidence of paranormal activity. • The broad chapter boundaries came from caption-based chapter analysis; exact spoken EVP reactions still require a playback check before any definitive label. What did you actually hear or see? Post the exact timestamp, identify whether it was the Ouija board, EVP recorder, ghost box, camera or another device, and include any ordinary explanation you would test. I review specific observations—not just claims that a demon or ghost was captured. 👻 WATCH MORE ORIGINAL LIVESCIFI INVESTIGATIONS https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLInSFRdFs5pg https://livescifi.tv/episodes/ EVIDENCE NOTE: The Bath Game is folklore; this is an account of an experiment, not evidence that a legendary figure appeared. Recorder artifacts, reflections, radio reception and viewer expectations can affect the interpretation of apparent activity. #DarumaSan #BathGame #LiveSciFi
