Internet/youtube horror

been thinking about house horror a lot lately and it’s occurred to me that a lot of it takes place in houses of evil that there’s no escape from, where you fall deeper and deeper in until you are swallowed. While I love that kind of concept, I watched a couple of spooky videos today that got me thinking about a scenario where you could leave the house and go about your life as normal, but you were still forced to live in it and come back “home” to it every day.

The videos I watched were “my house walkthrough” by nana825763 and “RADAR” by lyrahorrorz. In “my house”, the protagonist walks through a noticeably decrepit, disgusting home that slowly loops over and over, becoming more corrupted and hellish throughout each walk through its halls. This protagonist treats it as normal and describes each room and how it relates to their family as a person who would live in this house, even the ones that were “closed off”. They wander into rooms that have been condemned and show off the corpses of their family as if they are still there with him.

In Radar, the protagonist is seen desperately trying to escape his house, and an entity tormenting him by reminding him of horrible things, flooding the home with an unbearable smell, and removing his hands. He tries to escape by banging his head into his door until it splits open. Eventually he gets out and simply goes out for a casual movie night with his friends, yet having to go back home to this torment directly after. His house also becomes noticeably decrepit and abandoned by the ending.

These aren’t particularly made to display the theme I thought up, but it was interesting all the same. Your house is a place of solace, a place to rest after a long day. Now imagine if this house was a horror eating away at your psyche and your very life the longer you stay in it, yet you have nowhere else to go. Your mundane every day tasks, such as going to school/work, picking up groceries, or watering your garden become your escape, your sense of normality in this nightmare you go home to every day. You may try to run away, or stay with a friend, but you always end up crawling back into the jaws of the house one way or another. You are tethered.

The most interesting and scariest part of this concept to me is that it’s a real thing that some people live. Some people have abusive family members that they stay with because they have no one else. Some people can only afford disgusting and barely livable places infested with things that want to get under your skin. I’ve known loved ones in these situations and I’m sure if I asked them what their house felt like to them, they would describe it as a monster, a sinkhole, a place of stagnation and stress. So is it really much different to be forced to live in a haunted house, or a sentient, malevolent house, or any other sort of surreal, winding nightmare of a place that you just can’t step away from for long?

You tell me.

I've been going down more digital horror rabbit holes lately and it's really weird man

Edited to add a few more I found

So here's a quick list of absolute trips I've subjected myself to

Treatsforbeasts. A classic, but when you watch something other than beasts or plastic men, it starts getting really weird. I think the strangest one I've seen so far is mom ordered ants for my birthday.

Nana8257. I love her work, but Jesus fucking christ there is so much red my retinas are burning

Boisvert may have been depressing but it has so much meme potential

Local 58 is horrifying and You are on the fastest available route actually made me cry, I cannot stand robotic voices saying ominous shit, it just hits that uncanny valley

No Through Road, again, made me cry. That was so well made and actually scary

I can't sleep is basically what my mental state was last spring. All I'm gonna say is I hope she's getting help.

OO390, although it may be a confirmed ARG, is just really creepy. Don't record people without consent just to make an "oooooo spooky" youtube channel.

Robert Helpmann. Yeah, the dead body is almost guaranteed to be fake, but it never fails to horrify me.

Hey Walter, Meet My Girlfriend. Yup, another confirmed to be fake, but realistic enough to genuinely terrify me. Trigger warnings for kidnapping and (implied) sexual assault.

Honestly all that this post has proved is that I get scared way too easily and now I'm gonna need music to get to sleep so I don't think about no through road

thinking about this killer phrase from piropito once again

[uncomfywave]

Close your eyes. Dream on. Dear little child. In the sky, stars are still fading away

PIROPITO MINECRAFT STREAM PIROPITO MINECRAFT STREAM. MY GUY'S A STREAMER NOW. MY STREAMER. MCYT STREAMER. YIPPEEEEE 🎉🎉🎉

It's a bridge-build stream (of course ^^), the plan is to stream for 6-8 hours (???) until the bridge reaches a certain number or he falls off the bridge and dies. He's speaking a mix of English & Japaness & his English is genuinely so good aaaa. He wrote a bunch of stuff in the stream description about his fave music, books etc. THIS IS SO LOVELY 💥

Art like this often is considered disturbing, but I've always found it more comforting, I don't know how to entirely explain why, but it feels so much like what it feels like in my head.

Jagged and jittering motions, surreal grotesque imagery, overwhelming colours, things not making any sense, yet still having some kind of clarity to the chaos.

And the music too... it sounds like music after a breakdown, the calm after the storm, the mushrooms growing on corpses. Something bad happened but its over now, its over now and pretty mushrooms are growing from the rot.

I hope if even if I don't make sense and my rambling just sounds more concerning and strange, you also like this art I happen to like a lot too.

Youtube’s New Username 666 Rabbit Hole - Don’t Misspell “watch”

tw for disturbing imagery all images featured will link off site, images will feature fetuses, babies, and otherwise unsettling images. Images will be still and will not feature jumpscares. I will try me best to describe each image. View at your own discretion.

Lately there’s been new memes going around warning people not to remove the h in a youtube link: “youtube.com/watch”, prompting curious people to do it for themselves to see what will happen when you do that. This will work with literally any video you try it on. It will also work as “wathc” and “wath”.

So, what does happen when you do it? Well, you’ll find a rather simple, but unsettling video. The video is a looping animation that only lasts a couple seconds before looping for the 2:03 video length. It features 4 red babies (or perhaps a fetus), one on the top hanging upside down, one coming up from the right side, one coming up from the bottom, and one coming up for the left side. The baby on the bottom is larger than the other babies. The animation is of their heads spinning around 360. They stand in front of an unidentifiable image, which to me looks like flowers. For a screenshot of the video, follow this link below.

Below the read more I will explain the legendary origins of the video and an attempted explanation of the whole thing. It’s rather lengthy, hence why it’s going under read more. If you do read it, thank you in advanced!

So what on earth is that? Well, it’s a video from the famous Username 666 video uploaded by youtuber nana825763, who is a Japanese horror artist, as well as a minecraft player. The video features someone going on youtube back in the very early days, searching up “youtube.com/666″. At first an error message states the account was suspended, but after refreshing several times, the page starts to change. With each refresh, the the webpage starts getting creepier, starting from thumbnails not loading but being listed as “666″, to the background coming black, until the background looks to be fleshy and covered in holes, a trypophobic nightmare. The channel is now finally accessed, and the user begins to look through videos on the channel. One of the three videos showcased is the one above. Username666 became a legendary creepypasta, and one of the earlier ones on the internet, as it dates back to 2008. Legends even had it that the channel was real, with people trying to find ways to access it, though obviously this wasn’t real.

So what exactly is going on here? Is username666 real after all? Or is it a youtube easter egg? Let’s be real, youtube would never do an easter egg like that with their squeaky clean image. The video is actually a fan-made channel, named 666. We can see here a screenshot of their channel, and the two videos uploaded. The second video actually also comes from the username666 video uploaded by nana825763, though it isn’t the one you can find by messing with the urls. It looks like a woman drowning in blood, with bugs crawling along the video and hands coming up and squash them.

So now we know it’s a fan making the channel and reuploading videos used in the original username666 video. But this wouldn’t be anything to note if it weren’t for the url tricks. To be real, I’m still a bit fuzzy on what is going on exactly, since I don’t understand coding or anything, but I will explain from my understanding.

Youtube urls work in an interesting way. As we take this url from a spunchbob compilation video, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d6v3qgkcH5I, we can learn that a video url is two parts. The youtube.com/watch is the base url, while  ?v=d6v3qgkcH5I is a search query, with the “?” working as a “/” to separate it from the base url, “v=“ being a video, and d6v3qgkcH5l being the ID for the video. In the case of an invalid query, it will simply take you to the youtube homepage. Another thing about youtube search, is that you can simply search “youtube.com/[insert username here]” and find the channel page of whatever youtube channel you searched there. Even if you add an invalid search query, it will take you to the main channel page.

What this means is that when we have a url like www.youtube.com/watc?v=d6v3qgkcH5I, where the h is missing, we’re actually looking at a channel named “watc”. Same for the other variants, being channels named “wathc” and “wath”.

Youtube also has a feature that allows channels to make custom urls that are different from the displayed username, and another partners feature that allows it so that channels partnered with another can make it so the search for channel 1 redirects to channel 2 the partnered channel, though I’m not entirely sure how those work or how to access it. But channels with this feature in use can use a channel search that redirects to another channel. In other words, using one of these features, these 3 channels used this feature to redirect the channels “watc” “wathc” and “wath” to  the channel “666″. As for the rest of the url with search query, they probably have it somehow set up so that video when it invalid search query is entered, instead of just redirecting to the channel page, it redirects to the specific video they have registered.

We can see proof of this in play when we investigate the channel a bit further. We see that 666 follows one channel.

A channel named iluomo. When we view iluomo, we can see their channel page here.

We can also see the “yop was here” video.

The video is simply the text “yop” over a black background with some relaxing music, kind of like lo-fi hip hop beats to relax and study to. The description states, “Yes, your teacher is dumb and can’t paste a link.” This shows that it’s similar to the 666 channel, where it’s a prank that the user plays on people who mistype the youtube url they’re looking for.

We can see further proof when we see the url on their channel page.

We have one of our channels, wathc. Though the display name is iloumo, the channel itself is wathc. Only now, wathc doesn’t lead to yop was here, but it now leads to the 666 fetus video. This is what ties the whole thing together, and also shows us this is very likely the same person just revamping their prank.

Mystery solved... mostly. To sum it up, it’s some fan of the original creepypasta using youtube exploits to creep out people the manually type their youtube searches and make a typo.

The real buzzkill is that the channel owner pinned their discord server in the description, though commenters have warned that it’s full of edgy teens spamming the server and throwing slurs everywhere.
