For Paranormal operators

Paranormal is binge-worthy by default. The operators winning are the ones publishing on a schedule.

Ghost stories, hauntings, supernatural — the niche has zero saturation discipline. Most channels publish irregularly. YouDark composes a Monday plan so you stop missing your slot.

What to avoid

Excessive jump scares hurt retention even though CTR rises briefly

These rules-of-thumb compound when you ship weekly. YouDark's Weekly Plan generator combines them with your channel's own retention curve, so what wins for you isn't the same as what wins for someone else in the niche.
