The Dead Internet Theory | True Crime Sleep Stories

This isn’t your usual true crime story of murder or mystery—it’s a crime against humanity itself, a silent theft of our voices and connections. 

Dive into the chilling reality of the Dead Internet Theory, where the web we love is a digital graveyard overrun by bots and algorithms.

Follow Ellie, a late-night scroller in 2025 Chicago, as she uncovers a sinister truth: over 70% of online interactions—those heated Instagram arguments, viral memes, and perfect replies—are fake, driven by AI scripts designed to manipulate and control.

From bot-fueled rage wars to synthetic influencers, this episode peels back the curtain on a web where human voices are fading fast. Will you dare to face the truth, or keep scrolling into the void?
