Season 5, Episode 9. The Haunted Profile: MySpace, Multiply Ghosting, and the New Digital Self. A chill notification cuts through the silence—it's a message from a friend who should no longer be able to reach you. Their profile picture smiles back, frozen in time, but the words are new and haunting: “Why did you forget me?” What if our digital selves never truly die? In this episode, we explore the unsettling phenomenon of “haunted” social media profiles—the lingering presence of the dead online, from eerie messages and unexplained posts to the blurred lines between memory and algorithm.
Join us as we share listener stories of digital hauntings, examine Filipino beliefs about restless spirits adapting to new technology, and ponder a future where grief and remembrance extend beyond life into cyberspace. This episode touches on themes of loss, digital obsession, and supernatural mystery. Listener discretion is advised.
