Transformers: Analog Horror Style

I've been talking about this on a non fandom related Discord and decided to bring it here. There are various analog horrors that utilize non horror series such as Splatoon 3 or Jurassic Park. It felt only right to add something like Transformers to the mix.

Extraterrestrial mechanical beings who can disguise themselves as various machinery, grainy footage and videotapes that only hold clues??? Perfect material for a horror. Here's some ideas that came to mind.

Decepticons

Nowhere is safe and one wrong move can potentially be your last. The Internet is a stalking ground so post or search with caution. Lest you wind up on Soundwave's radar. This Decepticon will be happy to light up his targets for one reason: an insidious hunt for the spy master's cassettes to enjoy.

Ever seen a beautiful sports car parked by the side with a sleek blood red paint job? DO NOT TOUCH. Unless you want to meet the same fate as all the others who run afoul with Knockout.

A terror in the skies that signals disaster wherever he appears. Pray the lone jet doesn't reveal it's true form. Don't look and hope he hadn't spotted you if a glimpse occurs. Survivors of Starscream are miniscule.

Results are all that matter. Morals? Worthless. Lives? Another opportunity to experiment. Emotions? Not needed. Shockwave only serves for the cause with lethal efficiency.

It is useless to hide. This will only excite him. Run as it chips away at his boredom. Fight and he'll be merry to slaughter the lamb caught in his gaze. All Hail Megatron as humanity is nothing but a plaything.

The only way this information can get through is by the way of analog. Find these tapes at your own risk. There is no turning back the moment the video starts. Decepticons don't lose their prey easily.

Autobots

It's nearly impossible to tell if they have good intentions unlike their more violent counterparts. The Internet is a double edged sword that needs to be regarded with caution. Autobots are at a greater disadvantage than you think. What little information about them is scarce.

Communication and knowledge is minimal. Some can speak but how comprehensible they are varies. The most understandable share only broken sentences that rarely blur into inhuman language. A few offer a 'soup' of linguistics which share little to no connection. Some play by the ear but don't understand what every word means. The remainder are mute, either speaking in their language or have no voice box to respond through.

Most don't understand how humans function. A situation that has led to people being slaughtered by Decepticons, accidental harm to the innocent, or danger by their fellow man who believe they gone insane. This has led to a decision from their leader, Optimus Prime.

Human help is REQUIRED. They need a liaison if the Autobots hope to even catch up to the Decepticons. Government related officials won't do as these humans are too volatile and always under Soundwave's surveillance.

What they need is a teacher. Someone who can offer such knowledge and not marked as a person of interest to their enemies. A bystander will do.

Pay attention to the car that appears outside your driveway. Look closer at the one following behind on the road. Did another join each car? Flee foolishly and they will give chase.

If the lights behind you disappear, DON'T RELAX. The Peterbilt is coming. Avoid him as he will trap you. Stop and the chance of escape dwindles. Turning off the engine was a bad mistake. DO NOT RUN. Optimus Prime will catch you and escape is impossible.

Welcome to the war. You can't escape until one side wins. The Autobots are guardians but also prison wards to their chosen liaison. You will be protected yet caution is still advised. Welcome to this new dangerous life.

That's it for now! Until next time folks, I'll see you later. Transform and Roll Out!

"Red Alert almost forgot to check on Hot Shot at the medbay. Don't worry everything is still fine!"

this is just an alternate aftermath referenced to a TFA episode where Hot Shot got his left leg broken while Red alert ran in to help in this battlefield. Just as to make it more of a horrific plot twist :^

Hai

so, i’m getting kind burnt out with boredom and creative stiffness lately, and i’m getting into my analog horror phase.

and i’ve been coming up with ideas and stuff and

it would follow Sentinel under the Primes for a while and then shift to when he was in power and stuff

it’d also be pretty angsty too with horror-ish elements, would it even be considered an ‘analog horror’? (No wait it would if it were tapes gathered, like data-logs, nvmd)

it would also be fairly art-oriented too, like a more finished looking animatic or something?

idk if i’ll give up on it or not lol

[redfoxdude07]

Transformers is literally the most obvious thing to turn into an analog horror that I'm amazed nobody has actually done it yet.

I don't mean a normal analog horror featuring Transformers characters. I mean an analog horror ABOUT the Transformers. They turn into literally anything. That's the perfect setup for something scary.

Imagine...

You wonder into an old house only to find a random camera on the floor. You pick it up because, hey, it's a free camera. You explore the house more only to find evidence of something fucked up. You reach for the camera but you can't find it. Suddenly, you find yourself face to face with some inhuman abomination that obviously wants you dead because you know too much. You run away and hide in the basement. You look around for some kind of weapon. You find a gun. You know how suspicious it is to coincidentally find a gun so you destroy it under the assumption that it's also whatever the camera monster was. Turns out that was an actual gun, and also was your only means to defend yourself against the other machine-like creatures that arise from inconspicuous objects surrounding you.

Shit like that would be freaky to see, and it's disappointing that nobody in this fandom has attempted it to my knowledge.

You can take that idea btw just credit me or whatever

⚠️CW: HORROR ART AND BRIGHT COLORS AHEAD!

Starting of my new acc strong with this new story I’ve been working on 💪💪💪

For any newcomers, HIIIII MY NAME IS LILLY/LILO!!! I typically post a lot of aesthetic, cartoony artwork on my other tumblr acc. But I’ve been really wanting to explore more sci-fi, horror, alien, and mech stuff, so I decided to make a new acc to share that kind of stuff here 🫶

This story I named "Heartstopper" was inspired by an idea a friend of mine gave me not to long ago when I was looking for concepts for a horror story, which was a play on Transformers (to all my fellow Tf fans, HIII HIHIHIHI 🤸‍♂️🤸‍♂️🤸‍♂️). But instead of robots changing into vehicles, they transform into these freaky meat monsters. This guy, Heartstopper (or Heart), is the main character!

He’s a very genuine, silly, kind spirited guy who wants to be a hero. I’ve been comparing his personality a lot to Bumblebee (specifically a mix of Earthspark Bumblebee and Tf one Bumblebee). But he’s also pretty new to the world. There’s a lot of things he doesn’t understand, about himself and about the world he lives in.

And when it comes to facing villainy and fighting on the battlefield, he can be VERY brutal 💀 That vicious instinct he has embedded in his coding has a lot to do with how he was made.

SPEAKING OF WHICH, here’s all the written lore on his backstory, the story setting, and a few other important characters 👀

As for the side characters, I also have some art of them too! But some of them are still sort of in the concept art stage. I might make some minor modifications in their final designs and post them soon 👀 But I hope you all like what I got so far! Can’t wait to share more art of this story 🙏

◎27, Oh hey dear Cybertronians, if this AnalogHorror has helped you while you were having a relatively boring day, then I hope you can still read it tomorrow, as you never read it ;)

[1dr1nkpa1nt]

so, a lot happened

one of my partners that was working on our story up and left, so we’re down to two (my sister and i)

then, i got really sick again, which set us back even further (damn weather is switching like crazy..wants to be cold, then it wants to be scorching hot again)

im honestly debating giving up on the series, especially since comics are high maintenance and stuff..too high maintenance for two people to handle

im open to anyone who’s willing to help, it would be greatly appreciated, and it’s highly necessary..

ill keep producing stupid doodles meantime, though! keep you guys entertained, at least..
