PO BOX 6437
Aurora IL 60598
Don't look under the internet. Look at that. I think we're just gonna have you do both. Sunk it up perfectly, the last episode.
Speaker 2:I think we're just gonna have you do both.
Speaker 1:Sunk it up perfectly.
Speaker 2:The last episode was a breeze to fucking edit. Oh, it was so nice.
Speaker 1:Well, and the problem is I agree. You see, the problem is.
Speaker 2:You know God, hello everyone, we harmonized there. You know god, oh, hello everyone, we harmonized there we harmonized.
Speaker 1:I am like I don't, I don't, I don't, wouldn't say it's perfect pitch, but I have. I'm really good at harmonizing with like any tune any tune or tone tone.
Speaker 2:So if I make one you'll harmonize with it. Yeah, I can't go that deep.
Speaker 1:So if I make one, you'll harmonize with it. Yeah, whoa, whoa. I can't go that deep, whoa.
Speaker 2:Whoa, whoa, that was cool.
Speaker 1:Whoa, I can just do it. That was so fast I got the perfect pitch.
Speaker 2:I hate you and. Kelly in the same room because she does the same shit Words and sounds. You do it one time.
Speaker 1:I'm a good mimic, yeah, I can mimic whatever. When, uh, uh, amelia just talks her gibberish, I'll just do it back to her and she'll be like what?
Speaker 2:it's a fake. What? Why are you doing this? To me, you're like those birds that can make chainsaws in the amazon starlings can do that.
Speaker 1:Fun fact, they can really. Starlings are better than like parrots at mimicking voices there's one, there's a.
Speaker 2:There's a bird that has I forget how many vocal cords, but it's similar to how many we have, and it lives in a jungle oh yeah, I've heard them when they do deforest yeah, and they're just imitating their trucks and their chainsaws.
Speaker 1:You're just fucking creepy, jesus. I get, I get how, like native villages or or like, uh, uh, like pioneer pilgrims or something, thought woods were haunted. Oh yeah, because the minute I'm in a woods by myself and I just hear hello, hello I'm like and I pooped, yeah, uh, there's poop everywhere, there's poop everywhere uh, welcome everyone to there's poop everywhere a podcast no, don't look under the internet, the podcast where there's poop, and it's everywhere. Here's my co-host, poopy Hello.
Speaker 2:Poopy Jason here and I'm Mike.
Speaker 1:No, you're Poopy Mike. Poopy Mike, come on. As you'll notice, doug and Amut are not here today, and that's Because they're fucking each other in the woods. Honestly, yeah, tis the season To wander in the woods. Honestly, yeah, um tis the season, so under the woods and get fucked. Yeah, uh, no, they're. They're off until next week, we, uh. So we're gonna see how that goes. And this is chasing me, which we. I think the glitter episode was the last year me one. That was a fun one it was a fun one.
Speaker 2:we have fun when it's when it's the two of us, and I don't want to say we don't have fun with Doug and Matt. However, there is less fun, less loudly, to sift through.
Speaker 1:I think it's a good way to put it. Less voice is more efficient this way.
Speaker 2:Absolutely. We get sidetracked and everything. So maybe we'll be able to buckle down and really sink our fucking teeth into whatever the fuck it is we're talking about we're gonna see right after deludy above your head.
Speaker 1:Uh, easy one. Today we have one new personal shout out. It's zidruik, zidruik, zidruik zedruik.
Speaker 2:I'm gonna say zederik, zederik, because that sounds cool fuck you and you're hardederik, I like that one.
Speaker 1:No, you know what it's original 10 out of 10.
Speaker 2:I will give it. I would give that name to an eldritch god.
Speaker 1:Ooh, yeah, that does sound kind of cosmic Lovecraftian Zederik. Zederik, that's our one. Thank you, zederik. Our website, deludycom, or patreoncom, slash deludy pod, yeah, today. Oh, that concludes housekeeping concluded. Um, yeah, we got an interesting one today. Um, we have a one on face value of looking at it, it looks terrifying, oh yeah it's and honestly it, like it is there there are some very, very very a lot of great imagery, yes, in this if you like culty things, if you like analog horror, I have seen the words um hillbilly, uh, satanic hillbilly ritual.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I've seen that at least five times when describing what this is.
Speaker 2:So this is like if the hills have eyes, we're a legit cult. I feel like that's. That's what we have going on here. It takes and I'm sure everyone around is listening to this knows exactly what we're referring to right? Obviously?
Speaker 1:yeah, I mean, everyone here is just like us. It takes a dark mind to. It does appreciate what we're looking at today. That was a good one. You, you got me with that one uh, we're looking at dark mind today, specifically dark mind one on youtube. Yes, so this is a pretty quick, pretty short. Uh, it's a fun collection of stuff. This is like analog horror slash, just collection of things um yeah, it's.
Speaker 2:It's almost like a I don't know, almost like a gallery of the creepy and the weird.
Speaker 1:Yeah, a lot of this. The imagery looks very fun and I picked it because I believe it was Theo from the Sun Vanished. Someone asked them if they had any recommendations and they said Dark Mind is a very fun story that they wish got some continuation. And, wouldn't you know it, it kind of did.
Speaker 2:Yeah, it started to.
Speaker 1:Yeah, so I want to check it out. Just based off of what Theo said, they didn't recommend it to us. I just saw on Twitter that someone.
Speaker 2:It has a recommendation.
Speaker 1:Yeah, they just posted about it on Twitter and.
Speaker 2:I was like oh fuck it, why not? By the way, on Twitter today, so a week ago from when you're hearing this uh, there's just a. Just hide your image previews on twitter. There are so many upsetting images there right now.
Speaker 1:It's wild, it's not okay. No, it's spooky pooky, uh. So I say we just dive into this. What?
Speaker 2:do you think? I think that's the best way to do it.
Speaker 1:We got a fucking catalog to get through, yeah so I unfortunately and I say unfortunately in kind of a good way, but I'm going to pretty much cliff note the shit out of the first like seven videos here.
Speaker 2:Honestly, you're probably going to cliff note the shit out of the first 23. Very true.
Speaker 1:So we're going to start all the way off at the beginning and you look like you're ready to swing that back. Are you trying to swing that back or are you just holding on to it?
Speaker 2:I was gonna, but again, I don't have any talking to you unless I'm making fun of you or adding to something. Do you want a?
Speaker 1:clinky drinky report.
Speaker 2:Why not? What are we drinking, oh?
Speaker 1:what are you drinking? What are you thinking? There's a bottle here and it's empty Honk.
Speaker 2:It's leftovers from last time you want some leftovers, let's pull it.
Speaker 1:It's more bullet, it's good.
Speaker 2:It does bring me back to last week.
Speaker 1:Turns out, they drank a lot last week, Ooh buddy, we drank a lot. I haven't been down here in the week and that bottle is like empty.
Speaker 2:The handle. Yeah, it's a big boy.
Speaker 1:So first video we're going to start off with is called 4 AM. I'm in a Nightmare and it is a very high art likey, uh student film style thing where it's just a bunch of like creepy imagery starts off with like this there's like little toy bear in its bed and there's a shadow that keeps going by and the bear's like what the fuck it gets up.
Speaker 1:It's kind of stop motion okay um, and then it shows like this creepy face and the bear disappears, and then it's just more random creepy aesthetics. Um, there's like a person with what looks like like a pillow sack over its head with like the eyes drawn on like what's in the thumbnail, and they're just sitting in a chair, uh, and they're just kind of going like back and forth, kind of swinging like that. Um, and there's some other imagery of like a person that looks like they're kind of wearing like a weird mask and I think there's like a doll head in it as well, and it's just creepy for creepy's sake. You know what?
Speaker 2:I mean.
Speaker 1:It's nothing like it's Halloween, honestly. Yeah, it's more just unsettling, if anything.
Speaker 2:I do like the unsettling, yeah, and that, yeah it's. It's more just unsettling, if anything um I do like the unsettling, yeah, and that face that you see as a thumbnail, that's just it's a fucking pillow sack, yeah, um.
Speaker 1:The next one is just summoning antitheus, uh trailer, and it's just a trailer for the next video that's gonna be coming up. No good, summoning antitheus, which this is when you get into that like trailer park satanism a little bit, it is literally, um, like this imagery of I it. I thought it was supposed to be baphomet, but it might be. Whoever this antitheist guy is, he's got the cross yeah, and I'll show you what I mean.
Speaker 1:Just because, like I, I I expected to be baphomet, but the fact that it's called antitheist makes me think it's supposed to be that character and it could be.
Speaker 2:It's so it's hard it's definitely satitheus makes me think it's supposed to be that character it could be, so it's hard to honestly say it's definitely satanic imagery.
Speaker 1:Yeah, everything is satanic. With this one, which I dig the imagery, I dig all that stuff. It's very fun. Everything looks hand-drawn too. There's a book full of instructions and sigils.
Speaker 2:It all looks hand-drawn.
Speaker 1:It's very impressive looking it's very impressive looking really. Yeah, definitely. Yeah, there's lucifer right there. The uh not spoilers, but uh, a running theme that you'll see in this entire channel. The art is fantastic. Oh, it's so fucking love it. This. This was not at all one of my favorites, unfortunately. Not to like, not to get too down on this thing too immediately, that is the that is the bath on it.
Speaker 2:That's baffling, yeah, so not to get down on this thing too immediately.
Speaker 1:That is the. That is the baphomet, that's baphomet, yeah, so not to get down on this thing just wasn't wasn't my most favorite thing we've covered, but the art is up there, so I would watch this just for the art look at that alone.
Speaker 2:It's very fun. I'm coming on visuals that no one can see. I'll stop. No, you gotta be really fucking annoying it's?
Speaker 1:it's very much just visuals of people essentially setting up like a some sort of like like devil worship seance type of thing, Like they're. They have, like the, the pentagram on the floor. There's people in robes that appear Um, but it's nothing like cohesive, it's just like flashes of all these things.
Speaker 2:It's like little boop, boop, boop, yeah, but it's kind of fun. Well, I mean, especially in the first, what I'm seeing, like the first four, there's just heavy, a lot of it's heavy.
Speaker 1:The next one's called uh, daemonium, yep. There it is, yep, and it's just. It's an image of this guy. Uh, he kind of looks like uh, he's in like priest robes satanic priest satanic priest robes with like more of a demonic face, with like horns, and he's holding these candles. And it's just creepy because, like I love the one thing I love about this image not to talk too much about images on a audio right.
Speaker 2:I know this.
Speaker 1:Nothing here is moving except the candle lights. They're just flickering. I love that. It's such a. It's just a subtle little thing. It adds so much though I love it. Yeah, um, but it's just more subtle little thing it adds so much though I love it.
Speaker 2:Yeah, um, but it's just more imagery, um, it's more again, more art of this, this demon, my God, yeah. So, okay, I did not watch these beginning ones. Um, I only watched the, the, the section that I had watching this is, it's kind of like watching somebody set something up yeah.
Speaker 1:Well, here's the downside. That's it with the demon stuff. Oh man, yeah. So that's why I think these first couple are just this creator yeah just kind of showcasing what they can make you know what, just having fun with it you know what I mean.
Speaker 2:So everything that you just talked about in the titles has something to do with like demons or satanism in some way. And looking at the next couple, and the thing that they have in common, except for one of them, is either mp4 or found footage, which, in my opinion, is close to the same thing that's why I think they were the.
Speaker 1:I think the beginning of this was just a fun yeah yeah, I think they were. Just they had great fun ideas I just want to put out there. Nothing is okay attaching together, it's just uh, here's some fun satanic imagery here's some really fucking cool art. Yeah, there's a very loose, not very important story to go with it, just in case uh, the next video is called night tripmp4 and the image it is like a clown mask, that's, it's 40, 45 seconds of a person wearing a clown mask.
Speaker 2:it is it is unsettling, unsettling I don't like.
Speaker 1:It looks like it's wrapped in saran wrap.
Speaker 2:That's the point.
Speaker 1:Yeah, it kind of does in the video too, um, but it's just, yeah, it's just a clown face like it's just this, we're not I'm not, it's just uh it's just a clown face and there's like a doll that, like a like a barbie doll head that they like painted like the eyes black and I gave it like a red, like oh yeah, creepy smile, and it just kind of stays on that for a bit. So again, more just unsettling stuff to be unsettling, yep uh. The next one is called um unnerving found footage pictures I made, and or sorry, my unnerving found footage pictures, and it is literally just a bunch of creepy pictures. That's where I think this guy again is just showcasing his art and his creations. We got a cool stuff.
Speaker 2:This one's called the corpse walker almost like the spine and skull are coming out of this. It's fucking cool.
Speaker 1:This guy knows how to make some cool art dead roots like it's like a wire frame. Oh my god, yeah, I make some cool ass shit.
Speaker 2:That's cool that that's Jesus. Some of these are really unsettling.
Speaker 1:That's what I'm saying, like I love. Yeah, guys go check out this artwork. I love the aesthetic they have going on.
Speaker 2:It's very creepy, it's dreadful, like it gives you this sense of unease and dread. I like it, just unknown.
Speaker 1:Yeah, it's pretty much the same as the um night trip one. It's just a bunch of creepy aesthetics just to be creepy. They don't mean anything. They they're very haphazardly thrown together. It's just creepy for creepy's sake. Okay, uh, that's where the original ones that, um, I originally intended to cover ended. Okay, next we're going to d's topic. Doug, take it away. All right, go, doug, go. What's that?
Speaker 2:He lost his vocal cords.
Speaker 1:Oh, I am handsome. Thank you so much, doug. What was that? One more time? No, you're not stupid. Don't say that.
Speaker 2:You're a smart boy, all right, so the next one I'll take over for dogs uh.
Speaker 1:The next one is called uh n streetmp4 and we start off with this like black and white photo with the title of the n street. Um, get a bit of text on here that is asking about a man that's standing across the street with a chopped head, and it's the head is like floating there and this person is like holding something and in the text they're like is it a weapon? Like what's he holding? I don't know um. It cuts to a close-up of the image that they're referring to and it's this creepy face. Um. You get this jump scare of it.
Speaker 2:Even it's a jump scare of this scary face um, but there's no like it's just like this zoomed in enhanced picture I do, yeah, this next, yeah the next thing you're about the uh scary stories yeah, this art is kind of reminiscent of scary stories to tell in the dark.
Speaker 1:I didn't really put that together.
Speaker 2:But seeing that, yeah, that this, some of this artwork is, it reminds me of that, just without the color and maybe done in charcoal versus like doug doug put this outline together.
Speaker 1:this is all doug's outline. I'm reading off it because I watched the videos, looked at what he wrote down, I was like, yep, 100%, that's all you need. So the next one is called VHS Tape 1, noises in the Old House. So this guy starts off with someone recording sorry, a recording of someone shining a flashlight around like an old looking home, like it's kind of dusty, some stuff is kind of tattered looking, it's nighttime. Um, the date is september 29th 2007. Odd thing about that is they're using like a vhs filter.
Speaker 1:no one's using vhs yeah but we'll get past it so just don't pay attention some uh, there's a couple of those that happen. It makes sense if you don't think about it yeah, um, in the background there's this like eerie ambient noise going on. It kind of creeps in, so it's kind of like chilling a little bit and, um, it's a little hard to make out anything. Um, but these, as they're like going around, the tapes will like pause at certain times, yes, and it'll reveal these faces that are appearing around a corner or something.
Speaker 2:I had some yeah now.
Speaker 1:I like it because you get to see some creepy stuff. It's fun.
Speaker 2:Um now, here's what I'll say the, the, the draw, like the artwork portion, amazing. The video editing portion could be a little better. Could be better. I don't want to say I don't want to show this.
Speaker 1:This is definitely a a younger person. Yeah, making this themselves, so I am gonna give hats off oh, fuck yeah if this was like a bigger, bigger name or someone that was doing this like a full time. Look at what we do with like like eight people, exactly like nothing, nothing at all nothing of substance, exactly, so I'm giving my hats off to him.
Speaker 1:Yeah, it's, it's janky, it's not smooth, it's rough in a lot of parts, but all in all, it's some kid that made this on their own time for fun and they blended their own art into it. So I'm not mad, no, but I do think it is fun to poke fun at this without you know. You know what they say, destroying it. You criticize the things you love exactly because you want to see them get better. Exactly and and and dark mind, if you're out there listening to this, which why are you? Don't take any of this as like harsh criticism, because we're a bunch of idiots that are just talking about a thing you made. I've never made a thing. I don't know how hard it is, so I I'm not even going to begin to be like you suck.
Speaker 1:I'm not even going to be like this sucks, Do better. I'm over that part of my life. But there are little critiques I'll have, but critiques aren't bad.
Speaker 2:Critiques help. We want to see this get better because we care about it.
Speaker 1:Exactly.
Speaker 2:I legitimately find this very cool. The artwork and everything around it is fucking awesome. And I mean, you've got the presentation down. Honestly, I think you just need some more time.
Speaker 1:Yeah, time is definitely a restraint on a lot of people, especially for one person, but let's get back into this real quick.
Speaker 2:Let's stop the dick sucking. Yeah, let's get back to what we're talking.
Speaker 1:So, um, like I mentioned before, it's the throughout the video. It does tend to keep doing this. One of them it stops, um, to show this long arm coming into a room and then it proceeds to show a full face and body of that the thing that controls the arm, and then it ends abruptly with this like tiny little jump scare. Which the the creature looks like it. It looked. I don't know how to describe it. It looks. Which the creature looks like. I don't know how to describe it. It looks like a creature. It looks like a fucked up human being, like a demented looking human thing, just like amplified the lesser features.
Speaker 2:Yeah, and that's what you got Pretty much.
Speaker 1:The next one is called Funny man VHS Video. It's uncanny, that's what it is.
Speaker 2:That was the fucking word I was searching for.
Speaker 1:That works. The date on this one is April 12th 1997. We see a black and white film from inside of a home and a door opening to again just a home. We're kind of just investigating another home. It's weird. We now get some text that pops up and it's just saying is this a nightmare edition, nightmare, um. It clips over to a creepy looking monster man I don't know what to call him. He's in a hat and he's standing into the door.
Speaker 2:In the doorway oh, that was the um ah okay, yeah, the hat man.
Speaker 1:Yep, that's what happens. We take too much bendrol, this guy, you see, that's why I don't take bendrol? Because I owe him money it asks are you a ghost? Uh, and then the video kind of cuts to this text saying showtime and a shot of the tv with some weird faces like flashing on the screen.
Speaker 2:You started breaching into mark hamill's.
Speaker 1:The joker with that one oh yeah, showtime I was going for. Uh, uh, uh. What is yeah, showtime I was going for what?
Speaker 2:is it Bats?
Speaker 1:Oh, batman, I was going for more Jim Carrey's Ace.
Speaker 2:Ventura, ace Ventura, I think, yeah, okay, I think those are not far off from each other. Well, Batman. I can't do it.
Speaker 1:Only Mark Hamill can. Yeah, only Mark Hamill can, Anyway. So the man in the hat says that it is not a nightmare. It's not a nightmare is this ready? The video ends ready. It might be, hey bitch shit showtime bitch, that's exactly what he would say. The next one is called the projectoror Display Our Nightmares. Fun names in these by the way.
Speaker 1:Oh yeah, so it starts off showing a creepy like monstery man and he's only got one eye. There's some audio playing, but it sounds like an old recording of some like TV show or radio show or something. You can't really make it out too well. It's very muffled. This is a very short video, um, and the last couple are pretty short as well, so again, I'm just kind of brush through some of these, but it's fine. Um, the video is real short and the last few things that we see here is the one-eyed man. Uh, his face is now like mashed in, like you don't see how it got there. It just shows the one-eyed man and then it cuts in his face just like like someone stomped him out, just took a piece out, pretty much fucked it up.
Speaker 1:12 is called unnerving image time lapse instagram fucking catchy title. This is pretty much just him advertising for his instagram. Um, uh, we start off in a room uh, it's got these like backroom vibes to them, you know what I mean where it's kind of like familiar, yet haunting, yeah, you know. Um, it seems like the creator again is just kind of showcasing his creations, the monsters. He can make things like that. Um, it's just two minutes of this man with like a floating head among like other art, but that's the one it focuses on the most and he's like it just okay.
Speaker 1:Yeah, he's like another creepy, fucked up humanoid thing but it's like floating off and like again it's it's just too many. It says him plug it in, right, that's all I mean. The title fucking gives it away yeah it's not hard to figure out, yeah here we go. Number 13 is called the csc corp uh we're in analog horror territory a little bit.
Speaker 1:Oh god yeah so this is a rare products company. Um, this is a very short one, extremely short. Yeah, this is literally like a vhs uh camera zooming in on some sort of tree cube thing. It's like a tree in the shape of a cube. Oh the the date says december 7th 1995. That's cool. That's it, it's very short.
Speaker 2:Oh, okay, I think I I understand the tie-in for the tree yeah.
Speaker 1:Um, the next one is csc corp title music. It's just, it's just a music video for this music, that's all it is. There's nothing to it attribution. Yeah, the next one is csc corp the broken man game commercial. Oh, this one was kind of it had me for a bit, lost me a little bit but, it had me for a bit.
Speaker 1:So it starts off with the csc logo and it's playing the music. Then see a head and a hand in a box and it says I want to see a real life dead corpse. This is how you do it, number one I'm giving it the voice, but in real life it's um, this is where I kind of hate it. It's like no, it's an ai. Like it's like do you want to see a corpse? Number one, and I'm like, why did you? You should have recorded it yourself. Fella just fucking pitched it up a little, yeah. But uh, number, it gives you instructions. The first one is to place the corpse and the head on the table. Don't do it. Number two no, do it. Oh, okay, do it? Touch the?
Speaker 1:corpse as much as possible and place its head on it Really molest this corpse. We can never just have a little, get real perverted with this corpse just never have a little bit of bat shittery.
Speaker 2:It's like you know, just you know, put it on the table, just fuck it, just have sex with it in front of people for a live show audience it's a corpse.
Speaker 1:Do whatever you want. Honestly, if I died and someone did some weird shit to my corp, I don't care. I'm not using it anymore you're done with it.
Speaker 2:Yeah, your meat mech has run out of power. Yeah exactly.
Speaker 1:I don't care. Do whatever you want. Play bocce ball with my eyes, I don't care you know there's.
Speaker 2:Oh, okay, I have played jacks with my testicles that means something different to other people. Fuck it anyway.
Speaker 1:Number two take the wooden eye lens and place it on your eye to stare into the corpse's eye and it gives you a start. There's this little like wooden, like I'm not gonna do this. It's this little one thing. You put it over your eye, kind of like. It's a little like lindsey thing, like that, like you're like right, like when you go to the eye doctor.
Speaker 2:Yeah, yeah, it's like when you go to the eye doctor and then I want you to stare into the corpse's eyes too. One or two, one or two, they look the same, okay. Two or three, three or four, three or four.
Speaker 1:They look the same as well. I think number one maybe Okay. Number one or eight? What?
Speaker 2:Eye exam humor. Yeah, some of you won't get it?
Speaker 1:That's just the fucking family guy bit. What was it? Jafar? That's just the fucking family guy bit, was it jafar? Goes the the optometrist or whatever. Um, so yeah, you're supposed to take this wooden lens. You're supposed to just look through the wooden lens, oh, through the wooden lens, at the corpse's uh eyes balls oh yeah, number three look anywhere around you in your surroundings and, okay, this doesn't make much sense, but it says as long as it is three meters away, you're good, oh, doesn't make much sense.
Speaker 1:But it says as long as it is three meters away, you're good, oh, doesn't make much sense at first. But then it's like we just you can see. Then it literally says you can see the man standing there, lifeless and dusty, and it's like what? And then just a man just is there in the view. Yeah, and he is. He's a corpse looking guy and he's wearing like a tan, dusty, wrinkly suit. I get it and it's like if the man is still there without the lens, you're fucked.
Speaker 2:That's it.
Speaker 1:You're fucked. It just cuts off there. That's it. It cuts off, yep, it just says so. The man's still there without the lens, done you figure it out?
Speaker 2:I don't know, you fucking figure it out. You got a roommate. Now I don't know what to tell you. You have somebody to help you with rent. Good job congrats.
Speaker 1:You paid income, um so on to the next set of videos here. Oh, you'll probably notice that a lot of this is me. It's because I made the outline dumb and, uh, I had to scramble to cover a bunch of shit. Um, it's okay, you're doing a great job, thank you. The next video is called uh, basewood county, humanoid alert now we're getting into something interesting basewood county.
Speaker 1:So I don't know if you're aware of it. Basewood County has been a relatively popular and growing analog horror, slash series, slash theme that other creators are creating stuff with.
Speaker 2:Oh, absolutely, so it's kind of like. It's like SCP. Yeah, it's like an SCP, like an open world.
Speaker 1:Yeah, so it's very interesting to see that this is where it came from. Yeah, so it's very interesting to see that this is where it came from. Yeah.
Speaker 2:I was noticing that and as I was going through, like you can kind of tell, especially with the first sections, that you just did, a lot of that stuff is very disjointed, like it doesn't really have a common thread, I think our guy not I want to say found his groove per se, but was like I have this really good art Instead.
Speaker 1:Not I want to say found his groove per se, but was like I have this really good art. Instead of just making random shit, let me see if I can make a story. Yeah, I think that's what happened here is he was tired of just making rando bando shit and was like yeah, you know, what I can. Let's see like a piece together let's tell a story like a plot, so I love it. So with this human alert it starts off. We're definitely in analog territory oh fuck yeah, uh, horror territory because it's an eas it's a tv broadcast.
Speaker 1:Everyone's seeing these. I, that's my thing. I I'm not putting this against this creator. Analog horror guys, you gotta come up with something new. I'm tired of seeing these and fucking slideshows come up with some new fucking shit. It got me for like the first year. Analog horror is supposed to be like a retro horror yeah something that is is reminiscent of like the 90s right. We had more than just eas's and projectors in the slide projectors right give me something new, man. I need something new, I'm getting tired of it.
Speaker 2:Um so this one is like an ir. That's just the IRS, because they're still analog they send you mail IRS is the original analog bar.
Speaker 1:So this one shows that people in Do you think it's Basswood or Basewood? I think it's Basewood.
Speaker 2:I have been saying Basewood, but now that you ask the question, I don't honestly know. I'm going to keep saying basewood, but now that you ask the question, I don't honestly know.
Speaker 1:I'm going to keep with basewood, so people in basewood counties should be on alert for these tall, skinny humanoid creatures with long arms and fingers. Their face is usually one of two things it's either smiling uncomfortably or it's distorted Sorry and distorted, or showing no emotion at all.
Speaker 2:So there's a blank face. So you get the movie Smile or you get fucking uh, patrick bateman yes, from from uh american psycho oh no, who's just psycho. Oh uh that norman, patrick norman norman is dead face um, so I'm just picturing raincoat dancing to keely lewis in the news. I still have to watch that movie. I haven't seen it. You would love it. Yeah, you would think the end is stupid though yeah, that's fair no spoilers or anything but I'll give it a shot someday anyway.
Speaker 1:So we get some video of one of these things and this thing is like living in a sewer, like it's. It's, it's supposed to be vhs video of this person like looking into a sewer and you hear it laughing and you see it kind of appear like like pennywise to georgie in the sewer, um, laughing, and you see it kind of appear like Pennywise to Georgie in the sewer. And then you get another video of one attacking a man that's hiding in a closet it's that old-fashioned where it's the guy with the camera and he's pointing out of the closet in like a door and he's like For like 45 seconds and then it just shows his dead body. Oh, they must have heard you. I think that's what I try not breathing like that. Yeah, breathe like you've done it before. Yeah, breathe better, uh. The next one is called detective alberson's tapes, a name that'll pop up.
Speaker 1:Yeah, no, I've seen that this starts off stating that there is an investigation um with duck, duck, detective albertson gets. Oh, I don't know what happened there there I thought you were about to say duck, duck, goose detective duck duck really duck duck goose albertson um. He was investigating a victim's home um when detective albertson found some old tapes and sketches in the home. The sketches look like. They look like mark zuckerberg. I'm not gonna lie to you. Yeah, these, these sketches look like of creepy. Mark Zuckerberg, did you spill your drink or something?
Speaker 2:No, no, no.
Speaker 1:These faces look like Mark Zuckerberg, like the drawing. It's funny, that's.
Speaker 2:Never mind.
Speaker 1:Keep going. He might be one of these humanoid creatures.
Speaker 2:That's what I'm saying.
Speaker 1:So then we cut to a video it's just a dude driving, that's all it is, and then um, his car. Then we cut back to another video of um, this guy who is like he's looking down this hallway, here's some like rustling, and then he like goes to a room and it's a dark room.
Speaker 1:There's a big window and there's that face that was in the sketch, it's outside the window and he just turns the lights on and it's still there, um, and then it cuts again and then the next is a still image of this like fucked up looking humanoid thing, like standing over a guy with like these razor sharp teeth, these like black eyes do you know what?
Speaker 2:what these things remind me of? The, uh, the mimics from vita carnis?
Speaker 1:that that's what this looks like oh 100. Yes, that is what I think I know exactly the one you're talking about.
Speaker 2:They look just like the mimics from vita karnas that's a good comparison. Oh, hell yeah.
Speaker 1:Um, I loved that series, so that's, I think that's why I took a, a decent, like vita karnas is great because it did the thing that more um more youtube horror should do it, which is make things in unreal engine. It looks real enough to pass, and you especially in analog horror, and it helps you tell a story. Yeah, in a different perspective and you don't tell stories through, like security cameras and shit.
Speaker 2:Yes, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme gimme, gimme um.
Speaker 1:We're not talking about vita carna we're talking about dark mind sorry, so um, the next video is called the staring girl. It's like a minute and a half. Basically it just says if you see this chick chilling in your apartment stairs she's going to kill you. Oh, and it's just a lady with like a dead face. And yeah, if you. Thankfully, it's apparently only if you live in an apartment. If you don't have an apartment you're good. Yeah, yeah, yeah, okay, because it specifically is like if you see her in your apartments, buildings stairs.
Speaker 2:She's gonna kill you and I'm like well, I own a home, so I think I'm safe.
Speaker 1:I'm good. Yeah, I am fine there. The next one is called the identity test and, fun fact, this yep, this is the one that I turned into a game. I've seen this and this is uh, markiplier played this game.
Speaker 1:It's like the haunted test, right where like it convinces you that something's in your home uh, to an extent, yes, yeah, um, it doesn't go real good into that, but yeah, that's what it tries to be, I think. Um, but basically what this is is, um, it starts off showing you some simple faces like hey, are these normal people? And that shows you an image of a person.
Speaker 1:It's like normal, not normal look at the photo, you yeah, and you click if it's normal, not normal. And as it progresses, some of the faces get more and more fucked up and you gotta choose if they're normal, not normal. If you choose wrong, then you die. Oh yeah, um, while this is high school, all over again, exactly, you get it. Yeah, um, maybe this guy's fresh out of high school when he made these and he's like.
Speaker 2:This is just what real life is like. This is actually not even a horror video. This is just. He goes in my high school yearbook saying normal, not normal.
Speaker 1:Oh, I'm dead, yeah. So, as the test goes on, there are video clips and pictures that we see um randomly. The phrase I will tell you what your mind can't comprehend will pop up on screen.
Speaker 1:I don't know what that voice was I loved it there's then this video of a man knocking on a door and a creature is on the other side and text pops up and it says a chamber in the woods where they come from. And we get some more creepy imagery as we end the video uh, end with a video of one of the creatures just kind of sitting. Still it's like yeah, it's literally doing that, and then its face is kind of yeah, it's very, very fucking early 2000s, you know grudge ending where it's like there's a sequel baiting, where it's like I'm alive and it's like, oh, what's the next come?
Speaker 2:out freddy versus jason. I has to be the biggest perpetrator of that, the fucking carrying his head off and he just goes, hehehe.
Speaker 1:Literally winks to the audience. He's like, oh, come on, it's pretty great though, yeah it is.
Speaker 2:I love Robert Englund.
Speaker 1:I love Freddy versus Jason People are likeong.
Speaker 2:It's great, it's fantastic it's.
Speaker 1:It is a bad movie. It's so bad. It's creative, it's creative. Yeah, I'll give them that fucking freddie's playing pinball with jason um the next video the next video is called manifestations. Um, there's a. There's a reoccurring person in a lot of these videos. It's the creator.
Speaker 1:I don't know if it's supposed to be the same person, or he just doesn't have anyone to play these parts, so he's doing it. But in this video we see the creator and he is writing in a journal and then he opens up a plastic tub and there's this freaky little bug guy in there and it's like a creepy. It's got like six tentacles on each side and then kind of like a humanistic head.
Speaker 2:So it's like the fucking cockroaches from mimic cool yeah, spot on, it looks pretty close to that. Yep, I'm in my so I'm in my creature feature halloween. I'm so happy. I love me a good creature feature.
Speaker 1:That's just the theme that came out more together I dude, I'm about it.
Speaker 2:I've seen so many, uh, if you have not seen psycho gorman yet, you should oh, I have.
Speaker 1:It's great, it's fucking great it's stupid, but it's so hunky boys. The next one is called uh, family's little friend, and this is a commercial for this little clown toy. Uh, it cuts to a kid and he's like diane, where'd you get this doll from? Whenever the lights go out, it looks like it's watching me, oh, and then it cuts to like it looks like this dad. Like looking at this, like sketchy looking magazine, but it's handmade by the creator.
Speaker 1:That's I can't tell if it's supposed to be a magazine but it kind of looks like an old, like it's got the fucked up drawings and no, it looks like it looks normal, but in like a like gonna scam you type of way, like it looks like in comics when they were like 50 cents for x-ray glasses yeah kind of like that, like that, okay, yeah, mix, when they were like 50 cents for x-ray glasses, yeah, kind of like that, like that, okay.
Speaker 1:And um cut to a video at night and it's like this person running around and they're like looking at this doll with the camera and the doll's face gets a little fucked up and freaky. Uh, then the dad comes in a frame and he's more doll-esque, like he looks like he's made of wood, his face is kind of splintered and whatnot. He looks like a doll, he looks like a dog. Pinocchio, pinocchio. Dad, when can I go out and be on my own?
Speaker 2:You should also watch the horror movie Pinocchio. Pinocchio, yeah, it's fucked, it's so fucked.
Speaker 1:I'll think about it.
Speaker 2:Don't ruin my childhood I don't know if it's, it doesn't really have much to do with the actual Pinocchio.
Speaker 1:It's like the Winnie the Pooh Blood and Honey. It has nothing to do with Winnie the Pooh much.
Speaker 2:Kind of yeah, this one's about a cybernetic sex slave. Yeah, it's fucked. That's the.
Speaker 1:Pinocchio I like. That ain't a nose, that's growing baby, that's a dilly-do, so the dad's a doll figure and then you see the whole family and they become doll figures as well. So this doll cursed his family and made them into figures and it's even like oh they're part of my family now, krusty.
Speaker 1:Yay. The next one is called Peaceful Life and it's just a person, person's voice over all this, like over, like a meadow with, like a breeze and like the wind blowing through the trees, and it's like you should breathe in and breathe out more and keep your heart rate low, and all the while, yeah, all the while, like occasionally, like a creepy face will pop on, be like just jump every couple yeah, it's kind of annoying, but whatever, the last one for me is called the chamber, and then I swear I'll let you talk, jason, that's fine.
Speaker 1:So with the chamber, we learned about a man named calvin uh basewood, who is the person that discovered basewood. Um, in 1896 he discovered this odd building in the woods. He said that it looked like a futuristic building that no human of our time could make in 1896 yeah, which doesn't really speak much.
Speaker 1:You could just make a building out of like bricks and they'd be like what the fuck is that? I'm used to straw or something. I don't know what they're building. And he didn't my house is made of wood. It's gonna burn down. Yeah, um, as he enters this building, he saw what he thought were humans, uh, but he mentioned that they looked odd, it's not this time that they started to attack him and he fled for his life.
Speaker 1:Um, one of these creatures pops up on the screen and says I will wear your skin like a suit, uh-oh. And we are then introduced to Andy Stevens, which is going to be another reoccurring person who is a missing person. We see his missing person's fire. We see his before and after of a transformation that he went through, where he's starting to look like one of the creatures. He goes from looking like a regular guy to his face being looked like a mimic type of thing yeah, 100 percent um no skin yeah, and so we then learn after this imagery.
Speaker 1:We learn about a group of seven people called the philadelphia group, um, who went to explore this chamber in the 90s.
Speaker 2:Uh, we get this video of is this like from the philadelphia experiment?
Speaker 1:I think that's probably where the inspiration came from, for sure yeah, um, we get video from them and in this video we see uh, andy stevens missing poster. And as they enter the building there's a mangled body with like half its head cut off and this big old open wound right in the heart area. Oh right, in the core of the body. Yeah, you see the core of the body. You see a creepy guy is sitting at this desk and he looks it looks like a ventriloquist dummy, but I don't think it's supposed to be, but that's what it looks like a ventriloquist dummy.
Speaker 1:But I don't think it's supposed to be, but that's what it looks like.
Speaker 2:It looks like slappy from goosebumps, goosebumps. Yeah, and christ, that dog gave me nightmares.
Speaker 1:Yeah, and it's it's sitting on a desk and right next to the to him on the desk, is a monitor and they're playing the identity test game that we referenced earlier. Yeah, um, above it, uh, above it is a piece of paper that says the the words that were in the uh identity test. That was um. I will show you things that your mind can't comprehend, or whatever yeah, yeah, um, we have such sights to show you, yeah it's great, it's so great.
Speaker 1:Um. So they explore further on into the building and they find a corpse of a woman with her eyes missing and it looks like her skin is melting like wax, which which is a creepy description. I like that description, yeah, melting like wax Creepy, because then it's like goopy and thick in some spots but thin in others you know what I mean?
Speaker 2:Oh God, yeah, I've been picturing like a burn victim, because that's how they describe burn victims with horrendous burns.
Speaker 1:That's how they describe it Waxy Melting, waxy skin, not great, as the group leaves the building and it's not just like specifically one building, it seems like it's a couple buildings connected, or at least like a small town or something, because they leave the building and they encounter a creature in this alleyway. That's why I say I think there's multiple buildings, because how are you going?
Speaker 1:to get an alleyway if there's just one building in the woods Right right. So the creature in the alleyway attacks him, and only two of the seven survive this attack. We are then shown a map of the chamber that the Philadelphia group was able to create, and it's showing all the things that were just stated. It shows where the two corpses were, the desk was all that stuff, Recapping everything.
Speaker 1:Yeah, like that the two corpses were, that the desk was all that stuff recapping everything. Yeah, um, it shows above the corpse. It shows this black void that looks like a window. Oh, no, weird. Um, we then get this footage. It cuts this footage of a doctor and he's like I'm gonna tell you about the anatomy of the humanoids and, uh, this is their stages of life. And he's like this is how they infect you, they get into your core and they take over and you got to let us in. He even says he's like let us in.
Speaker 2:Oh, I wonder who you are.
Speaker 1:You might be one of them. I don't know.
Speaker 2:Might.
Speaker 1:And so it then shows you the creatures through their stages of life as well. They go through, I think, four or five stages, but each one gets progressively more humanistic looking they start off fucked up and they slowly just look like a human with no emotion. Hmm, yeah, that's horrifying.
Speaker 2:Mm-hmm yeah, introverts unite.
Speaker 1:That's what I got.
Speaker 2:Well On to Jason, finally. So, after we get that terrifying little piece of media suggesting that there are thousands, if not millions, of these things just living amongst us, but as old people, we're going to do a next video called Arbitrator. This is it's. We are in full, full, full analog horror swing right now. The first we get is this it's like this uh, this type text that says a basewood county. Uh, oh, I'm sorry, the description of this video is a basewood county reel about dr, redacted and the notebook in the chamber, um. And then we get a bunch of text that says it's got a picture of one of the humanoids and it says scream and scream. No one will hear your screams in the doomed forest. And then we get a bunch of sketchbook images and there are all of these humanoid things and they're all hand-drawn. They're all hand-drawn and apparently these belong to Doctor.
Speaker 1:That's the doctor that was in my video too. Okay, same thing, yeah, Okay perfect.
Speaker 2:Apparently this is his notebook, his sketchbook, and it's just full of these humanoid drawings that are horrifying, fantastically drawn. After we go through a couple of these, we get some more text that says it's only a matter of time before they find you. No one will be saved. That's the end of Arbitrator After Arbitrator, we get one called Picture Dash. After the Arbiter Huh. After the Arbiter. After the Arbiter, huh. After the Arbiter. After the Arbiter yes, chief, and the Arbiter, yes, god, arby. And.
Speaker 1:Chief, is that what it was? Do you remember those?
Speaker 2:Arby and Chief. Arby and Chief. No, oh, never mind, I'm thinking of the Arbiter from Halo. Yeah, they made a series.
Speaker 1:There was a series called Arby and the Chief.
Speaker 2:That's kind of great.
Speaker 1:It was a Master Chief toy and an Arbiter toy and they just kind of dick around together. It's called Arby and the Chief.
Speaker 2:You have such specific media in your brain vault. It's so specific.
Speaker 1:It was very popular.
Speaker 2:I believe you, I have never heard of it.
Speaker 1:Yeah, look that up now while you're doing your thing.
Speaker 2:I just got to see what that's like right now, to see if you didn't just make it up. Um, anyway, so the next one's called picture dash analog horror short. Um, we start off with an eas says oh yeah, they're machinima originals.
Speaker 1:I forgot about they are machinima produced. I forgot all about that.
Speaker 2:It's the same people that did Red vs Blue.
Speaker 1:Yeah, nice, and then they went bankrupt because they were a shitty company.
Speaker 2:Yep, very much so. Anyway, go ahead, anyway. So we start with an EAS and it says Global Chaos Alert An unidentified secret has been passing from a person to another that causes insanity, derealization and abnormal behavior. It says do not engage in long conversation with strangers. This is basically telling you, like, what to do to avoid this, uh, insanity, derealization or abnormal behavior. Um, do not engage in long conversation with strangers. Do not listen to the underground music, as it may contain the dangerous information hidden. Turn off any electron, uh, electrical device. After this message ends, do not look at this picture. Ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever. I'm sure you get the point look at the picture, don't look at it.
Speaker 1:Um, I have to know. Sorry real quick. You don't know about arby and the chief, but did you ever watch Cactar and Tom Berry?
Speaker 2:Why does that sound familiar?
Speaker 1:The Final Fantasy no All right.
Speaker 2:Sorry, my guy, it looks like we have some things to watch. You got to catch me up. Old Flash animations from Newgrounds, oh my God. Yeah, I've got a lot of those Flash animation videos or the videos under my belt, but I've never heard of that one, anyway. So after it tells you not to look at the picture, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, big red letters pop up and say too late, and then the picture flashes in front of you. Oh man, it's like what the fuck.
Speaker 1:You just told me.
Speaker 2:It's like you wanted me to. So it shows the picture and then afterwards we get some more text saying I'm aware I'm alive, I can feel it. My mind cannot comprehend it. The mind is shattered, horrors beyond comprehension. The only mistake was you looked. That's the end of the video. What does this sound?
Speaker 1:like I wouldn't say mistake you made me.
Speaker 2:What does this sound like? I wouldn't say mistake. You made me. What does this sound like? All the tropes we're hitting right now, my mind cannot comprehend it. The mind is shattered. Horrors beyond comprehension. The only mistake was that you looked. What do you mean? This is straight from fucking HP Lovecraft. Okay, that's what I thought. The fact that one of the dates was taking place in 1896.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I thought you're referencing like a specific thing. I was like, oh no, no, this sounds lovecraftian.
Speaker 2:There's definitely a cosmic god, yes, horror to this. You can tell the body horror is. It comes straight from like thing on the doorstep haunter in the dark or whisper in the darkness. Yeah, um, literally, like I I'm pretty sure lovecraft was a huge inspiration here and you can definitely tell with like the tentacle goodness that comes out.
Speaker 2:I think, in general, analog horror would not serve, not have existed without about lovecraft oh I think every analog horror is based off of lovecraft in some way, shape or form and, as we're getting into like the more modern day, I would say a solid 30 of the horror movies that exist would not exist without lovecraft. Oh yeah, thousand percent, like it's the amount that are coming out. It's great, I love, I love it. Anyway, just wanted to give that little reference. I caught on to it. I could be wrong, but I saw it.
Speaker 2:So next we're going to get a video called unwanted feelings restored ad. Don't know what that means, but anyway we're going to get some more text text on screen with some, with some static, and it says sometimes unwanted feelings hit us without knowing the reason. These feelings might be anxiety, depression, paranoia. What can cause anxiety? Sorry, sudden anxiety, work, sleep issues, staring in the mirror too long, hearing its call and not answering. You know those are all anxiety-inducing things. I hate them, I know. Those are all anxiety inducing things. I hate them, I know. And then it says I know you do the dread, do you feel it? Hundreds of faces, but only one is watching you. And then we get a fucking, real creepy dude at the door at like three in the fucking morning. He's just staying like a doorway in this person's house. You get the time stamp. I didn't write down the date because I forgot, because I was way too fucking scared.
Speaker 1:Just put the chain lock on, you're just like all right, well, it's in his hallway, it's in his house, we'll get him a gun Dark room, oh yeah.
Speaker 2:And then after that it cuts to this red screen and then it's it's. There's some tagline I don't remember now because it was so jarring I'm like what the fuck you think?
Speaker 1:that's just like something that the creature yells to surprise you polar? Ox, wait what, just kick you off guard. Just wait what, and then you get killed. Healthy mind for healthy life what?
Speaker 2:yeah, I don't, I don't know, and I'm assuming this is another one of the uh analog horror tropes where you throw in like an ad for a fake thing, like think, uh yeah, unedit footage of a bear stuff like that. Um, I it's, it's a good way to to add to the world without actually building any actual information yeah, you know what I mean, it's just more stuff it's showing like oh, this, this other things are happening.
Speaker 2:Right, it's not just this. Um, okay, that's the end of that one. Uh, the next one's called we're going back to basewood. It's called basewood country killer or basewood county killer. Um, and hey, guess what?
Speaker 2:we get again uh, you get uh creatures eas alert oh shit again, um, and says, basically say that everyone should be on high alert for a suspected murderer. We get like a description, like a basic description, and a couple sketches, like it looks like Freddy Krueger had sex with Elmo and like that's what came out the back, and it's just like looking straight into the camera. And basically, after we get this description and everything, we get some CCTV footage of someone's back porch and says this is footage of the guy and like it shows, and there's nothing there, it flashes and he's standing in a flower pot, just like standing there with a big fucking tree I am a tree, now I am tree and he's just standing there looking at where the camera is. And that's about it. For the. Uh, oh, I'm sorry, it's not, I'm sorry, that's the end of that section.
Speaker 2:After this we just get big red letters and say keep running. And and then, uh, this is so. I this it. It made me startled. And and then I realized, like what I was looking at and like it shows a guy with a camera and there's like a stack of concrete or some tiles or something, it almost looks like a construction site or something and as he's looking, a pasted, drawn image of one of these humanoids like just goes, like no filter, no transition, no nothing. It's just there and it's like peeking out behind one of the stacks of concrete. I'm just like, oh, and I'm poorly drawn here, right, and it was just kind of I looked, I'm like man, okay, uh, the drawing is super cool, but it is absolutely it's just kind of there yeah it's supposed to be like he was hiding behind the same stack, that the guy was just on the other side and so like he peeked out.
Speaker 2:So I get that, um, and after that we get a hard cut to a yeah, that right there like come on, it's to be fair, that's kind of a staple of 100 this whole thing. Some of them were done better. That one was was. It was hard for me to make excuses for that one and again not shitting on this, it's just.
Speaker 1:These are areas that I think would keep people like immersed there was it's vita carnis again, but vita carnis did use like they had, like the costumes.
Speaker 2:Yeah, for some of the live action things, I think this could have worked well with at least one more person mask or a costume or something and I think all of that would have been solved with just manpower yeah, I think that time, that's time, time and manpower, the, the, the constraints here and for what? What's happening like it's, I'm entertained. I'll take it. I didn't think I was going to be as entertained, but like I'm actually enjoying.
Speaker 1:It's still creepy looking, so I'll take it and that's it's. It's creepy month.
Speaker 2:That's why we're doing it, because this is, this is creep galore so, um, the very last thing we see in this video is a hard cut to what looks like the very like last fifth of a body bag, and then we just see like a, just like like a little motion, like a toe wiggling in the body bag. Oh, they're not dead. Get them out of that, get them out, come on. But that's the end of that video. Oh, my god, my throat. Um, after the twitchy toe body bag video, how we get, before you sleep, informational tape. Oh, just in case you didn't know what you were doing going forward, I didn't, okay. Well, this is the tape for you. You need to watch this. Um starts off with some text that says my, I feel like my soul is being dragged into that place. I don't know why, but I feel like my son is watching me.
Speaker 1:I don't know why. I thought you were going that direction.
Speaker 2:I feel like my son is here. Yeah, billy, dad, dad. So I feel like my soul is being dragged into that place. I'm going insane.
Speaker 2:And then we get like a robotic voice that says something about the guidelines for sleeping. It says, like, only fall asleep at 10. 10. I fucking hate you so much. God damn it, mike. I just pooped and I got to do it again. Anyway, fuck, that got me real good. No, I get it, you get it. It says guidelines for sleeping Only fall asleep at 10, 12, or 2.
Speaker 2:It shows a clock and then it asks is the clock stopped or is it still moving? Is? If it has stopped, why is it stopped? It is the battery is okay. He goes into this whole thing about it and after that it goes, let them in, and just this big letter says let them in. And it goes into instructions on like just some basic steps on how to like open your mind more while you're sleeping, apparently. So from what I'm gathering from the end of this tape is that opening your mind while you're sleeping is one of the ways these things get into your body. And so they show this guy sleeping normal. He wakes up and you see his skin to start.
Speaker 1:Start like freddy kruegering some like uh cabin fever absolutely, oh god, yeah.
Speaker 2:Um, he looks freaked out and then that's that's it okay. Okay, now that I'm not fucking dying. Um, we're done with some wow wow, he's how it is. Um twitchy foot body bag cool, uh, we did that. We did the before you sleep instructional thing. Right, yeah, okay is that? My new band name twitchy foot body bag that's a fantastic, that's a really good like tweaker metal band name. Um, okay, the next video that we get is called Every Thought. Sorry, every THOUGHT in all caps.
Speaker 1:Yeah, thank you.
Speaker 2:Yeah, it starts off just by asking questions what color of underwear About the faces you see before you fall asleep? Oh, never mind.
Speaker 1:Yeah, it's a little different.
Speaker 2:It's asking questions like what's the face you see before you sleep?
Speaker 1:Do you? Remember what it looks like, it's my wife's.
Speaker 2:That's why I have nightmares.
Speaker 1:I knew that was coming. No, I'm just kidding. I love you, sweetie. That's why I go to bed every night with a smile gross, um, anyway.
Speaker 2:So it asks questions about the faces you see before you fall asleep and you get a flash of like it's. You see, uh, like the ceiling of a room and like somebody looking around and they're blinking. And then it goes dark and you see a flash of one of these humanoid faces in the bottom right corner. It's a little creepy, honestly. It looks like, uh, the nun from the movie the nun. Oh, those movies suck they're, but none is creepy looking. I will say the creep factor in those movies fantastic. Everything else garbage.
Speaker 2:Boopy garbage, yeah. So we see that face pop up for a split second and it starts suggesting more or less that through asking of questions, you know how you ask people just leading-ass questions to get them to think something you want them to think. That's what they're doing here. It suggests that reality is not real. Okay, you've been ignoring all the signs around you pointing the fact that it's not real. Um suggested that the places in your dreams that you see are all real places that you have been to before, and that's the only reason your brain can create them is because it's experienced it before.
Speaker 1:You don't like a mean gas lit?
Speaker 2:Yeah, I think you might be. They are, so I do know that. No, you've been here before. Oh, stupid Idiot. What are you fucking dumb? Gas lighting is not real, because you made it up, because you're crazy.
Speaker 1:That's the best way to find gas lighting that crazy. That's the best way to find gaslighting.
Speaker 2:That's funny, um, but yeah, so ask more questions. It suggests that all the places in your dreams are places you've actually been before, which is fucking wild, considering some of the dreams I've had. Um, the very end, it just nails it right on home. Everything brings you closer to madness. Oh, there it is. Yep, uh, that's the end of that video, the every thought video. Um, next we get bad dream mp4. Uh, this is a creepy drawing of a man with a fucked up face. Yeah, I see it, yeah, it's. I mean, I don't, I don't really know what else to say about it um, looks like a crash test dummy that's missing the eye part of his face and yeah, so the image you see in the thumbnail for this one is the highlighted humanoid.
Speaker 2:I think we can go ahead and start calling him that right?
Speaker 1:Yeah, we can just call him humanoid.
Speaker 2:This is the highlighted humanoid in this video and it asks why are you following me in my sleep? Which is just a terrifying question all by itself. And then you get more of the guy in the thumbnail just all over this guy's house, a room and somewhere else, and then that's. That's the whole thing. This whole video is 44 seconds long. So it's not. There's not a whole lot of substance. Um, next one is nightmares bring familiar monsters. Um, you get a guy in his house and it's dark and he sees a picture of a humanoid on his wall and he goes this looks familiar. Oh, I'm sorry, this is the silent movie style, so this is like black and white, like with the film lines, and then after every so often, you get the white text to narr narrate what's actually going on, because you can't hear anything. It says this looks familiar. And we see a couple more face shots and picture shots and face shots.
Speaker 1:This looks familiar, walks away.
Speaker 2:And then you see the thing in the picture hanging upside down in the guy's darkened hallway. There he is. And yep, the guy's darkened hallway, there he is. And yep, that's the exact shot. That's it and that is the video. The last one I'm going to talk about solo is going to be the analog horror drawing tutorial which we can probably guess what this is?
Speaker 2:Wouldn't you know it? It's a drawing tutorial on how to draw analog horror monsters. I enjoy that. He put that in there, though I'm not gonna lie I will say the flair that he added was the fact that he drew this thing and then he like heard a noise and then you see something that says it's out and he walks up some stairs and the thing he drew is like coming out of like one of the rooms upstairs. It's fucking freaky. Yeah, it's a freaky looking thing, but it's. It's cool how he did that. I can. This is absolutely like a. This is how you do things like this.
Speaker 1:I also wish more creators would um put out a video where it's like this is how I made this thing, or how I came with the idea, or you know what I mean, because I love the behind the scenes of these kind of things. I would love some like behind the scenes, like production. Yeah, you know what I mean oh yeah, I go crazy for that shit.
Speaker 1:I love that shit Like show me, show me that behind the scenes. How, like fucking Marble Hornets or something, show me the behind the scenes, or Boisvert, or Boisvert. Yeah, show me that kind of shit. Let me know what I love that I love that.
Speaker 2:Those stories are great because, you see, like the content for what it is and like how it's supposed to be told, there's something just really interesting about like the process.
Speaker 1:Like how did you? How did you? This blank sheet of paper to like this. In my opinion, too, this is not to sound like a fucking overdramatic, like like stroke of myself or something like that.
Speaker 2:But to me the dramatic stroking of my yeah, there, there, there is more, uh, I would say more horror in the like the how you created these things than what is like the thought process behind it and stuff.
Speaker 1:Yeah, what is uh able to be shown, because that's just raw oh yeah, it's usually based in reality.
Speaker 2:Some creative horror you know what I? Mean like the where you, where you made that from, to me is a probably a darker and scarier spot than what you are physically able to manifest in this medium or any medium you know I mean I know I mentioned boivere, but like boivere is one of those that is a very like a feeling conveyance series and like knowing the turmoil that was going on through the creator's head for that series, it just puts a hole.
Speaker 1:That's scary, it's like holy shit, that's real.
Speaker 2:Yeah, the stuff on the screen might not be real, but that did exist in that person's brain. And what the fuck? So yeah, we literally. It's just a drawing tutorial.
Speaker 1:Yeah, you um. So yeah, we get. We literally. It's just a drawing tutorial yeah, you see the monster.
Speaker 2:And that was the last video.
Speaker 1:It was until until yesterday or two days ago when we were digging into this, and there is a new upload called the forgotten humanoid. Uh, 13 and a half minutes basewood county analog horror.
Speaker 2:So let you know it's an analog horror and so basewood county is the name of the series that this belongs to, and you'll notice a couple of videos we talked about had the name basewood in it. Yeah, there's a playlist on this channel that goes over the only like the basewood county analog horror series stuff, and there's the rest of his stuff.
Speaker 1:Um, there's, I think what nine, eight, nine videos for basewood, something like that versus the 30 whatever for like the total count um, it's yeah, this video, I think we can kind of just pitch through it.
Speaker 2:It's literally it's it's about. It's an epic. It's like an epic about andy stevens and and how he went from human to humanoid. Yeah, yeah, it's, it's, I mean it. Cool I. This was one of my favorites content.
Speaker 2:Yes, because the imagery in it, the image and horrific and dope like all of these images are awesome and the story that goes along with it, because it like it, it takes, it takes a creepy thing that you've just been showing people and it gives it a reason for existing. And I think that's really where you find terror existing and I think that's really where you find terror is like, yeah, you can, like there can be terrifying things that exist, but as long as you know that that's not based somewhere, it's that's whatever. You can't really get behind it. Right, yeah, as soon as you have like a, like a create, this is the. This is fucking genesis. You know what I mean.
Speaker 1:Like the creation story, yeah, that's right here and that's this goes into like a little bit more detail about some of the stuff that we were talking about before, like the philadelphia, the philadelphia group.
Speaker 2:Yep, this shows another and it talks about the seven researchers that were from there and that it shows another video from them that we just now acquired.
Speaker 1:Yep and it. It just adds a little bit of extra lore, um, while giving us some really great imagery like again, take away from this what you want. It's not the best structured plot, but we're talking or anything but the art in this, the fact that it's all hand drawn, that's what. That's why I wanted to cover it oh, yeah, and this is, is this? This seems like a person who has genuinely good artistic creation.
Speaker 2:Oh yeah, and wanted to showcase that well, I mean look at this last video yeah, and all the videos.
Speaker 1:We just, we just looked at this one is, hands down, my favorite, yeah like you get more footage of, like the chamber yep um from the philadelphia word of those, the drawings, and yeah assumedly from the sketchbook, right, yeah, this is, this is from the sketchbook and like there's, there's, there's a drawing that the philadelphia group finds of, like the black void window, which is where all the creatures supposed to be coming out of. There's, um, like the different stages of the creatures on this, like piece of paper that they find shows the core. Yeah, the humanoid inserts into a human to make them one of them as well.
Speaker 2:It shows the, the creature called the void, which I personally think is the same thing as the window.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I think it's supposed to. I think this is like the the living. It's a living portal. Yeah, it's a living board. Yeah, thank you. Yeah, um, but all, all in all, like you just get a lot out of this and the world building. It shows the three different distinct types of these creatures even like up until now, I thought it's coming off the heads floating around it like there's different one.
Speaker 2:There's different versions of I thought it was. I thought it just fucked you up and like there was no criteria for it apparently there is, though apparently there's three different types.
Speaker 1:There's there's footage of the doomed forest, or what I was talking about. Yeah, like there's, there's a lot going on here. That again, it's not that it's this guy's turning into a tree, right, it does seem like that. Maybe he's becoming one of the trees in the Doom Forest.
Speaker 2:That's where I think this is going. I just don't know where it's ending after that. Yeah, I don't know. Super interesting story, oh yeah. So after we get these three different types, we get some more found footage of the guy walking around with a camera and he finds, like scrawled on a napkin, a drawing of a very happy version of the tree root growing out of the back.
Speaker 2:I think it's humanoid Stevens guy, I think. I think it is Stevens. Yeah, this is probably the beginning of his transformation, while he could still create human emotions. Yeah, in this case it's terrifyingly happy.
Speaker 1:Yeah, they find it in like a it's just like a shrub. And then there's a guy, I think we find stevens. Yeah, I think that's supposed. Yeah, that's what I thought too. I think that's what the hat?
Speaker 2:yeah, I think, because which is?
Speaker 1:the same hat man from yes previous.
Speaker 2:So this is it all. This video ties a lot of this stuff together and if if I was going to be 100, honest, I think the eight videos that have to do with Basewood are the core content and I think all of the other videos, aside from the first six or seven or something, are all like. They're just like yes, they're not part of this anthology of Basewood, but they exist in the same universe and they do add content and they add rules.
Speaker 1:Yeah, that has rules. Yeah, that that's as rules. I like that. And we find one thing here of something that does kind of put a close to one of the stories. Here is um Albertson, detective Albertson, yeah, uh, we find out he goes missing in this video and we find out that he became one of the humanoid creatures, so he was captured cord yeah, cord yeah there is.
Speaker 1:Oh, I'm sorry, uh, albertson is the hat man yeah, sorry, but you see um a before and after of albertson and yeah, he's, he's, he's a thing, and you you kind of find out that he is the hat man from before.
Speaker 2:Yep also, I kind of think he's the, the murderer in the the other. Oh yeah, I got the flower pot and I got that too, yeah, and then you get like live footage of. Albertson is the creator um dressed up as him, and he does have like fucked up shit on his face for a scene, for like a frame and then it's gone, unfortunately, but it's very freddy krueger though yeah it's, it's honestly like yeah, honestly, this was nice Again because art Art, you know what I mean, it's crazy.
Speaker 1:This helped add a lot of plot oh yeah, but the fact that there's not a whole lot of plot to work with it didn't add much. You know what I mean. Absolutely this video added about as much plot as the entire thing has right um, oh, this is the whole plot.
Speaker 2:Everything else is just like sporadic instances of these human.
Speaker 1:Yeah, exactly so I would say, I mean, we're at the end of this thing and we're an hour and 15 minutes in, so like yeah I said we just get down to. Oh, nothing broke. There's a penis on the table there's a penis on the table. There's a penis on the table, that's okay. Watch your drink. Watch your drink, pick up the booze yeah, so it doesn't spill over or anything. There we go. We did it. Anyway, we did it.
Speaker 2:So we only caused a small scene.
Speaker 1:So let's get down to our I guess quick review of this. What did you think I'm like? On a scale of one to ten, I'm gonna give it like a three and a half for plot. I see what they're going for, but they did not flesh enough out for it. But I'm gonna give them like an eight and a half for the art. Oh yeah, I think the art really put it together. Um, it's very. The fact that it's handmade, um, and there's plenty of it, I think, carried this, which is the art style like, I feel like if you looked at any of these drawings without the filters, they would still look analog.
Speaker 2:Yes, yes, and I like it, just like this picture that we're looking at now, the very end, the closing image of the 13 minute video, the forgotten humanoid. Like it's got an analog horror by Dark Mind. It's got the picture of Alberson behind it. It's like a severed head. It just it looks like it belongs there. You know what I mean? Yeah, like it's. I don't know. I don't think I could improve the imagery in this at all.
Speaker 1:No, and that's that's a good and a bad thing for this, because it's a good thing, because you know your art, that your art is that good. But the bad thing is I this if it wasn't for the art, you would have nothing here, right? So dark mind again if you're listening. My biggest critique is you know, it looks like you have a good thing going with the, the base wood yeah. So keep focusing on that.
Speaker 2:I'm interested in the story. I want to know more.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I need you to flesh out this story.
Speaker 2:We need your fleshlight.
Speaker 1:Yeah, we need your fleshlight. They say, when you're making a story, you start with a beginning, or you start with a beginning and you start with an end Yep.
Speaker 2:And you fill in the gaps, fill in the gaps.
Speaker 1:I feel like that's what you need to do. I feel like he's just making shit on a whim.
Speaker 2:As he goes.
Speaker 1:You need to have, you already have your start. I need you to be like. And then they lived happily ever after.
Speaker 2:Yeah, whatever the world looks like. Or then they all fucking died. Yeah, whatever the world looks like. How do you want the world to look like after you're done with this?
Speaker 1:And then work backwards from there is what I need to be able to carry you for so long.
Speaker 2:That's how I write dnd campaigns. There you go. Yeah, literally, you guys give me the beginning with your characters. I have an like an end spot in mind. I just kind of just fill in this loosely fill in, because you guys never do the things I want you to. Why would you?
Speaker 1:yep, it's all part of the game. Um, but yeah, honestly, all in all, if you take my my art rating and the plot rating, I'm gonna give this like probably a cool five and a half yeah, you know, that's not the worst thing I've ever seen by far. I we have covered worse things on this channel, um, and the art definitely doesn't make up for it. So I'm gonna give it a cool five and a half. If I'm being generous, I'll give it a six.
Speaker 2:I'm actually so total. I'm gonna start with my total score. I'll break it down. I actually think I'm gonna give about a six and a half to a seven out of ten. When I first, I fucking praise. When I first looked at this, I legit thought that you had sent us like an artist's portfolio, like just a portfolio youtube. I was getting that, that's what I thought. But then I found all this basewood stuff and like the monsters and they made a game.
Speaker 1:You know, I'm gonna give it a. I'm gonna give it a six and a half because they were able to make a game out of the base wood stuff. Six and a half.
Speaker 2:And that's what I'm saying. The dedication is there for me. I want to know more about the humanoids. I can't help that. I need to know more about that. So I'm hooked on the story. I obviously fucking love the artwork. That shit was great, the. The only real thing that I'm missing is like higher production value. Yeah, that comes with money, that comes with time and that comes with people.
Speaker 1:That might be something that they don't have doesn't have, which is fine. So I can't really dock them for it.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I can't dock the creator. I will dock the actual series, just simply because, like I am trying to enjoy it, I would enjoy it more if it had a little higher production value. I know that's. The appeal for analog horror is that it could be like fucking nothing and I get what I'm good, but you know what I'm talking about and again, dark mind.
Speaker 1:This isn't a criticism on you, it's just I mean, it is a criticism. No, I mean a bad like rad, you know, I mean it's a criticism, it's not like fuck it's not like a fuck you, chris, yeah it's, we're telling you, if you have the ability to get another person on board to give you ideas. Maybe try. If you don't, that's fine too, yeah.
Speaker 2:But just don't Find someone that's not us, because as much as we'd love to help with any of the projects that we actually cover, we just don't have the time right now. So I don't know. More people would be good, but keep the idea. I like the idea. I think you have a good thing going there. I just think you need to figure out where you want to go with it, and once you kind of figure that out, you can fill in the points. Yep, exactly, you'll just create a great, a fucking banger story when it comes to it.
Speaker 1:So want to know what else is a banger of a story? Bang bros 9. Yeah. I mean technically, which is on our website, deludycom. Go there. You can see bang grows nine um.
