No, you don't need to explain everything! It's not unreasonable to ask a reader to use her imagination to fill in the blanks. I think that stories that explain everything are usually boring stories.

hmmm... flashes in the video... what could they be? The story makes it clear that they bainwash or mind-control viewers to go out and kill people and upload more videos.


 * a video virus that replicates itself by using these mind control flashes to make more videos


 * a creepy cult that runs the website and adds interference to uploaded videos


 * scary ghosts!!!  ghosts of people who were murdered in the last video!!!

(I liked the story.)
