What is a red room?

 

Red rooms are said to be dodgy online spaces within the dark web, where illegal activity hides.

 

According to online reports, they're particularly murky areas where sickos can pay to watch live streamed videos, of rape, torture, murder, and worse.

 

Users apparently pay thousands, or even tens of thousands, for access to the dark clips.

 

Urban legends surrounds red rooms have circulated for years, but so far no evidence has emerged that they exist.

 

Their name is thought to have originated from the 1983 horror film Videodrome, where torture is shown live on TV in a red-painted room.

 

Alternatively, it's been suggested the phrase arose from "Red Rum", which spells "murder" backwards.

 

Are red rooms real?

 

Red rooms have been the subject of discussion on social media for years, but there's no evidence that they actually exist.

 

Even if they had cropped up in some grim corner of the internet, it's not clear how anyone could run one.

 

Tor โ€“ the special web browser needed to access the dark web โ€“ couldn't run the rooms, as it's too slow to support live-streamed video.

 

Other secretive browsers would also struggle to host the streams, as they run their web traffic through multiple servers.

 

One case that suggests there might be sites where people pay to view disturbing, illegal content is that of depraved paedophile Peter Scully.

 

The former property developer would entice impoverished children with money and gifts back to his home in the Philippines.

 

He then drugged the vulnerable youngsters and made films of him raping and torturing them for an international paedophile ring.

 

Operating a secret child pornography site on the Dark Web, he sold the videos for up to $10,000 per view.

 

In one sickening case, Aussie sex attacker Scully, dubbed one of the worldโ€™s worst paedophiles, made two little girls dig their own graves.
