ok I’m like… back to this. I do love that the coffin of andy & leyley is so brutally bluntly HORROR as in not pg 13 blumhouse ghost horror movies that shy away from anything too taboo but horror that’s meant to offend & upset. I like the way it sees shit you’re not “supposed” to talk about & goes as hard as it can like - I don’t think at this point it’s a secret to literally anyone who follows me or has ever discussed fiction with me ever that the controversial or daring are obvious draws for me in any genre but particularly my favorite genre of horror.
like an anon suggested this to me, I saw the words “cannibalism” “incest” & “botched satanic ritual” as soon as I googled & was ready to check it out BUT I think it’s worth noting that it’s not the dark concepts themselves that got this game its well earned hype or that ensure that it lives rent free in my head & the heads of other fans.
I think the writers have created really compelling & complex multilayered characters & a fascinating storyline with a lot of questions left unanswered about the nature of these demons & of human souls & the world these characters inhabit & I’m being so sincere here I also think it’s a really thought provoking critique or at least exploration of the american nuclear family.
I already said this but I would’ve stopped caring pretty fast if andrew & ashley were not more than their archetypes which SURE are fun we love a quirky evil girlboss & her simp boyfriend brother but the fun archetypes are not enough on their own to keep me hooked. luckily, these are some of the least 1 dimensional characters I’ve ever seen. this got carried away talking about how good I think the game is & giving an obligatory disclaimer that yeah, I totally got into it initially for shallow & edgy reasons lol but I actually wanted to talk about the themes because I genuinely think it’s an incredibly well crafted story. anyway -
I think it’s really interesting that ashley is the one that is originally shown believing / hoping their mom hasn’t truly abandoned them. andrew discourages her from having hope in their mom or considering trying to find her until it’s about finding sacrifices for the demon & getting money. yet this initial dynamic is totally forgotten once they’re home. ashley just wants to kill these motherfuckers while andrew is busy playing mind games & - one might argue- playing house / pretending be a happy family. it’s andrew who is offered the olive branch. who we see considering sparing his parents or at least feeling conflicted about killing them. in the flashbacks we see that “andy” was forced to take care of “leyley” & she uses it against him “mom says you have to play with me.”
ashley is so depressingly achingly desperate for any hint of affection & it’s so obvious the reason she’s latched into andrew is that he’s the only one who’s ever chosen her. that’s why she’s so obsessed with calling andrew “andy” despite the conflict it constantly creates. andy helped her hide a body. a possibly hot take but I don’t think leyley was going “yay murder” in her child brain - I don’t think she cared that the girl died don’t get me wrong - but I do believe it was an accident. this is a happy memory though because it’s the only time in ashley’s entire life that someone has chosen her with that level of commitment. yet for andrew it’s horrific & traumatic & he wants to get away from it - or so he tells himself. maybe his parents were decent to him or at least not actively hateful how they were to ashley but it’s abundantly clear based on the fact the story’s premise relies on them leaving him to fucking starve to death that they do not give a fuck about him.
when mrs. graves tells andrew that there’s still hope for him & that she always cared about him the compliments she chooses are telling - they thought he was easy, quiet, a good kid - they thought they could have another (& hand her off to him to take care of). and ofc it’s worth noting mrs. graves only says all this to save her own skin & would never freely talk about caring about andrew.
so andy is living this cold not abusive but certainly empty & devoid of nurturing life & along comes leyley. she’s annoying & needy but she loves him with such reckless abandon. adult ashley’s words say it all. “If only you could love me with half the heart I love you with.” but he DOES he just doesn’t know how to show it the way she does. so he chooses her again & again & tries to make her happy with violence & bending to her will & showing her he’d do anything for her with everything he can except the one thing she wants which is simple affection.
as things get more & more dire ashley gets more abusive, controlling & manipulative embodying the worst aspects of her mother - a cold heartless bitch who never cared about anyone but herself - & andrew gets more & more apathetic just like his worthless father who’s barely even a person in his wife’s shadow.
it’s a really tragic story & I love this idea of characters on the run but they’re really running from themselves & that’s something you can never escape. how telling is it that the one thing ashley doesn’t want is to be buried in the same grave as her parents? but this story is about a grave it’s always been about a coffin in one way or another, they thought they escaped when they got out of the apartment but they’re still in it because they’ll always still be in it, you can’t escape from who you are at your core & there’s a reason ashley having tarred soul is such a glaring theme & episode 2 (in some versions) ends with andrew gaining a mark on his hand from the demon. they’re marked & there’s no escape. I’m sorry it’s just REALLY good horror. ok I’m done for now

90. Mikael Granlund (I literally had his poster on my wall when I was 11. Finland won gold and literally every girl in Finland had #64 on their cheeks the next day)
91. Sebastian Aho (I know his girlfriend a bit too well to simp over him but I also have few pictures with him from the time I was 16 and didn’t know her)
92. I have now cancelled both Kasperi Kapanen and Jesse Puljujärvi but I’ve been a big simp so it makes this 93.
4 players from my favorite Liiga team Ilves
94. Lukas Dostal
95. Eemeli Suomi
96. Ville Meskanen
97. Arttu Ruotsalainen
And then I can literally add 10 guys who play in smaller leagues that I simp for, but they shall not be named here.
So yes, I could name 107 hockey guys I love 😆 didn’t expect it tbh

kian andrew mathis . beat up playing cards with odd symbols etched in black sharpie against dulled red backs splayed out on cracked & darkened wooden floorboards that smell of moss & sink heart - poundingly low when walked across with too heavy a foot , the slam of a hole - ridden back screen door of a house after a late evening screaming match , just to sit down in the middle of a field full of laundry hanging & the sound of cicadas & crickets harmonizing in the dark blue distance – pounding a fist on the ground under bloodshot eyes , & a body full of tattoos meant to harden the skin underneath that sings relieved songs above rigid - seeming muscles when it’s touched – every once in a blue moon – by love rather than malice .
rumor . his family – his mother , father & younger sister -- ditched town when kian was sixteen because they thought he was possessed & would hurt them .
out of character . aubs , twenty - one , she / her , est , & i would live & die for andy dufresne from shawshank redemption . i watch speed racer ( 2008 ) unironically & it’s one of my favorite films of all time , barbie in the nutcracker is unequivocally the best barbie film & i’ll take that statement with me to my mf grave , & sam giddings & josh washington deserve it all . idk what ‘ it ’ entails but . . . they deserve it .
✷ * ˚ 𝑑𝑖𝑣𝑒 𝑖𝑛𝑡𝑜 𝑠𝑜𝑚𝑒 𝒔𝒕𝒂𝒕𝒊𝒔𝒕𝒊𝒄𝒔 / 𝒉𝒆𝒂𝒅𝒄𝒂𝒏𝒐𝒏𝒔 𝑏𝑒𝑙𝑜𝑤 . ˚ *
nickname . ki .
character inspiration . stanley barber ( i am not okay with this ) , billy russo ( the punisher ) , poe dameron ( star wars -- except i would never ruin his character like d*sney & co did so jot that down ) , chris chambers / teddy duchamp lovechild ( stand by me ) , will hunting ( good will hunting ) , & kirby reed ( scream franchise ) .
age . twenty - five .
pronouns . he & him .
orientation . bisexual .
occupation . mechanic at pineview mechanical .
frequents . wheel - a - while roller rink . his family used to frequent the rink . he’s an expert rollerblader who goes to the rink to get lost in the nightlife & music scene . kian’s infamous for picking up dates there & never following through .
tattoos . he has tattoos all over his body -- up & down both arms , a few scattered along his legs , a tree facing upward along the right of his torso , and wings against his shoulder blades .
face claim . jordan fisher .
zodiac . gemini sun , leo moon , & aries rising .
alignment . chaotic neutral .
hogwarts house . ravenclaw .
demeanor . he’s incredibly independent & is angrily forthright whenever he feels like he needs to protect himself . you’ll usually find him smirking from across a room or smiling to himself -- minding his own business & enjoying his own company . he treats every room like he owns the place ; a bit of a jay gatsby meets tom buchanan type , sans the simping . he’s the type to down a drink , give someone a smile , & when they don’t return the sentiment he’s quick to throw the smile away , replace it with a bored expression , & throw the glass over his shoulder so he can get back to what he was doing before someone tried to ruin his mood ( which is always secretly poor to begin with -- he just pretends he’s happy because he doesn’t understand what real happiness that doesn’t rely on acceptance feels like anymore , so he’s gonna have to suffer ig ! LKSMDFL ) .
positive traits . beguiling / charming , indulgent , & quick - witted .
negative traits . trenchant / sharp - edged , irritable , & selfish .
phobias . enclosed spaces & being locked inside rooms , his limbs being tied together ( being cuffed to something , etc ) & being unable to move , not being able to remember things , & feeling like he’s about to be cornered .
drug use . frequently . he has experimented with plenty of things in the past , but secretly only does it because he feels like he remembers things / his childhood better when he’s high .
alcohol use . on occasion & in small increments . he drinks socially , but doesn’t enjoy getting plastered . he hates losing gaps of time & tends to panic in morning - after situations post - blackout .
diet . average but chaotic . he eats as clean as someone with a lack of money & time possibly can . he’s infamous for eating out , getting takeout , stopping at diners for a pick - up meal , flirting with waitresses while he waits , etc . but eating oats in the a.m. & keeping things simple with a salad by noon isn’t too off base for him .
birthplace . radisson , alberta , canada .
has he experienced strange radisson happenings ? absolutely . he considers himself a strange radisson happening , but he’ll get instantly irritable if someone tries to make smalltalk about anything like that -- talking about radisson transparently brings back memories & makes him anxious , which is a mood that turns sour far too quickly & seamlessly in kian’s book .
family .
andrew & deanna “ dee ” mathis : kian’s mother & father . they were kind , but religious to the point where it became a fault & paranoid people who attempted to keep kian extremely sheltered growing up . when kian began acting up in school , getting in fights , getting into it with his parents & inciting household scuffles , his parents began to fear for their son . things only grew worse when kian contracted appendicitis when he was sixteen & grew pale & sickly with the same attitude , but wasn’t audibly in pain . he can’t remember much that happened at home during his childhood / early teen years , but he knows he has the scars to prove that he eventually had surgery to remove his appendix . the most he can recall is being in bed a lot , being angry often , being spiteful & fiery whenever he could squeeze the sentiment in , not wanting to go to church , getting his first tattoo when he was fifteen & making sure it was visible just to spite his parents , etc . kian ran away from home after a large family fight that ended in what he remembers as a scuffle where his father pinned him on the floor & screamed for him to calm down while he urged his wife to take kian’s sister & wait in the car . funnily enough , kian recalls , during this memory , feeling completely calm & content beneath his father . the warring dichotomy between what he remembers feeling & how he remembers his father reacting haunts him to this day . when they left , kian was able to emancipate himself & prove that he was able to take care of himself instead of being forced into a foster home .
younger sibling whomst i might add a wanted connection for so i won’t name them : kian’s younger sibling probably was closer to kian than their parents were , but they ended up leaving town initially with their parents -- either by force or willfully , he never found out . kian being kian , though , attributed it all to his family ditching him without a second thought & hasn’t taken a moment to actively miss them since .
education . went to public school his entire life & left alberta about seven years ago to go to study theology for two years , only to wind up back in radisson , where he studied auto mechanics through a trades program & now works on cars for a living .
languages . english , asl , & spanish .
