Maybe Slenderman is the true shape of the internet, Slenderman is the entity of non space, an almost human expanding man. In pre-america it'd be known as a skinwalker/stag God
@@JunkyardGod no I know I'm talking like... Why do we keep coming back to that archetype as spooky internet feeling, it's like a mirror of our souls being destroyed by the internet
i think its really scary that the humanoid has the magical power of turning your VHS footage into a still frame with digital shake and rebalanced lighting. truly frightening stuff.
It's also horrifying how whenever a clip with a real person is shown, there is either a huge cut with some some strange effects added on it or the fps drops from 60 to 3.
All these analog horrors with monsters taking people's appearances kind of makes me want a crossover where all of them try to mimic one guy and fight over it.
@standardhuman8675 It's why they're all trying to take over his appearance, they think he left since he wasn't seen recently and can just usurp him and go stalk and trap his roommate, but are fighting for the place. The dude meanwhile just changed his appearance and lives alone.
I want one where all of them are in a room together thinking they are the only non-human. So it's a bunch of doppelganger monsters trying to act like they are human
hearing the lincolnshire poacher, one of the most well known and widely used english folk songs of all time, and comparing it to a fucking sonic game is one of the most unintentionally hilarious things i have EVER seen in a creepypasta analysis video
watching an analog horror or any horror in general before bedtime is both a blessing and a curse blessing: its memorable and amazing with such fear curse: your brains believe this exist. not to mention if YOU sleep on odd hours, its "over"
@@0verpricedcoffee553 It would be hard, but possible. However, we'd only be able to understand every other word, if that. From a creative standpoint, the writer should've actually put effort in and make it sound remotely archaic while still understandable to a modern audience. Here's what I pitch: Ware the snecklifter, Who roams the night With eyes so deep, And skin of bone Flee the daemon, Gone from sight For it speaks like friend, But walks like foe.
3:35 Yeah, that's the exact point where this series lost me. I can suspend my disbelief around people using VHS camcorders in 2022 because hipsters do exist, but this isn't how Middle English works. The illustrations look really good and eerie, but the writing here is "beginner LARPer at a renfaire".
That's the bit that got me too which pains me to admit, but then in fairness I don't think thaaaat many people can read 'proper' middle english. Old english even less so, old Icelandic even more less so.
@@livf3107 Fair point, but also this is analog horror we're talking about. This is the genre that's fond of hiding obscure historical/religious references in its work that are essential to understanding the themes, the genre of "hey, do you want to find this crucial plot point? solve this cipher and punch the string of numbers that you get into a TH-cam URL." Plus, Middle English is close enough to modern English that I'm pretty sure it wouldn't be too hard for the audience to decipher given the context. Maybe I'm being pedantic, but it's kind of jarring considering all the effort that went into the visuals. You have all of these well-done eerie creature illustrations paired with the most lazily-written "Middle English" that could have possibly been inserted in there. I don't know. It didn't need to be perfect, but I think as a general rule if you're going to include something from another language in your writing, you should make sure it's at least passably accurate.
@limetime9045 The English used was more so Shakespeare's English, early modern English is what that was called. That would make it from around the 1600s, which is a bit more fitting for the series. Middle English is like what you'd see in the Canterbury Tales (that's some wacky English, yet just tangible enough that it sounds like english).
I think it's the limitations of the format that comes with the genre. Some stories just get pigeonholed by having to always be VHS/camcorder rips. It's crong
The music is the Lincolnshire Poacher. It’s an old British song but it was also used as a station identifier for a number station which was also called the Lincolnshire Poacher.
I love the sketches that were clearly hand drawn! It sucks that this series just doesnt really have anything standoutish to itself. It feels like a really wishwashy Mandela Catalogue x Slenderman monster
Maybe it's just being in the space too much, but modern analog horror feels oversaturated with "extremely fake model with creepy face looking at camera" for the scare. It doesnt have to be the best costume or editing, but when it looks like they just inserted a .jpg, its hard to susbend belief. In a time when skinwalkers are at all time highs in popularity and the Mandela Catalogue is still going strong, having another mimic story means that the scares have to be better or else it just feels like its copying homework.
Its just an easy way to get likes tbh Mandela catalogue, gemini, etc are all actually good and have effort put into them, while these are just boring slideshows with pngs and no atmosphere
I’m so grateful for how much you describe the videos as someone with a seizure disorder so I can still ‘watch’ the video without having to worry about having a seizure ❤
if they can jump to different worlds to try to kill and take over imagine the sheer horror those things would face if they popped into the DOOM universe.
That "get outside and watch the sea" part reminded me of the Local58 segments that actively worked against keeping people safe from what was going on. But it gave up trying to hide its true intentions in what looks to be around ten seconds. The Basswood County Nightmare series feels like it's trying to emulate other analog horror things, but it's just.. not doing it for me. All of the recorded footage swaps over to a freeze-frame of someone with a cartoonishly elongated face. Even the moments when a creature is supposed to be rushing down the hall toward the camera, it's just a couple of still frames shown in rapid succession.
yeah i actually know where its from its a sort of radio song that was used to transmit messages secretly i forgot where it was used but it was very intresting
26:50, the song is 'The Lincolnshire Poacher' a folk song/rhyme, the specific version of it used in the video is taken from a recording of The Lincolnshire Poacher number station, based originally in the UK and later Cyprus before it was deactivated around 2008. That tune would repeat over and over only being interrupted occasionally by a young sounding girl reading numbers. There's no connection between any of this and the story of the analogue horror but interesting all the same.
The music at 26:14 is actually the Lincolnshire Poacher; popular nursery rhyme that was famously used for a Numbers Station during the cold war. The actual audio is just as haunting.
Basswood County is honestly one of the best Analog Horror series I’ve watched. Please cover more like it, maybe Gemini Home Entertainment or the Mandela Catolgue. Big fan of your Analog Horror content!
Sadly this one feels pretty mediocre given its just a somehow less interesting slenderman Maybe visually more interesting, but other than that it doesnt have much going for it
26:25 When I heard that I remembered it was a meme from tf2, i went on the coment section of a video of that meme and I found it was "1_06: The Lincolnshire Poacher" The Lincolnshire poacher was a radio station that would give 5 random numbers every few hours if tuned on other stations, these were found in Cyprus in around the 1960s and were decommissioned in June 2008, it could be found at RAF akrotiri, Cyprus and also had a sister station called cherry ripe.
"i like analog horror because of the originality" The originality in question: Ancient Monster that steals identities and possesses mind breaking knowledge is killing people in a specific county and shows up in drawings, tapes, and speaks using a creepy text to speech.
I’m such a weird person. Every time I go to sleep after watching one of these videos I can’t sleep despite the fact that I know it will make me unable to sleep. Yet I still come back to these😭
This is a great example of how low the standard is for analog horror, lazy story, lack of storytelling, no characters live long enough to get attatched to or care about when they die, no character development and it's all just cheap scares. The monster's aren't original at all they are just a regurgated goofy face that mimics just like every other analog horror creature. I hope analog horror gets better because I love it and wish for it to be better.
I think they put too much money into these horror movies. Having a bright 4K 60FPS UHD LCD OCD LSD screen is also a lot less scary than a VHS tape from like 40 years ago, they got that eerie feel to them. And the people who make the actual horror movies are usually a lot older and aren't really familiar with what our generation find scary.
You dancing to Sonic 06 music somehow made me even more awake tonight. And to that, I thank you. Also, minor thing, but the old note at the first tape lacks proper classical flair and structure to it, which isn't the worst honestly. Just a very minute pet peeve of mine. The illustration accompanied with pre Art Nouveau styled lettering is pretty good though
Really funny part about this is that my dad lives off of a Basswood road, I haven't felt perfectly safe sleeping in that house since I've seen this series.
yep. as a big fan of the classic analog horrors, these new ones just make me sad. nothing original at all anymore... i've watched over a dozen to see if there's anything novel, but i literally could not tell you the differences between any of them. just goofy photoshopped faces... and yet people still think they're good - mostly little kids i assume, but views are views.
@@ArmundJay it’s kinda the worst of both worlds, it’s not even good, but it still freaks me the fuck out, just without any entertainment value. I’m going to forget about this video until tonight when it’s time to turn off the lights and get in bed
@@ArmundJay the worst part is, whenever something interesting and new comes out, dozens of people immediately start copying it. there are so many youtube horror series that are just beat for beat gemini home entertainment and local 58, when mandela catalog came out suddenly every analog horror was PSAs and police reports about tall slender humanoids with uncanny faces, when Lacy's Games blew up everyone was making "children's flash game website with a dark secret" videos...
I absolutely did Not expect the Sonic ‘06 shoutout. I’m glad I’m not the only one that thinks White Acropolis’ music, and all of its music tbh, is pretty great.
I think that's the creator not knowing old English. "It looks likeith a human" had me rolling bc of how incorrect it is. "It doth appear as a man" would be closer.
Gonna be honest, expected this channel to be video game exclusive analog horror and topics. Not going to stop me from listening from it, just felt i should point it out.
I think the art of this series is really good and unsettling but that bit right at the beginning with the old poem thingy, it was just adding eth to literally every word, other than that this series is great
13:56 that looks more goofy than scary. It's like that meme "Hello X from Y". Liebet's delay is just a cherry on top. 19:20 doc censored face, but not shadow
My question is what would happen if multiple met at one location? Would they fight in a death match against each other to see who gets the prey? Or would they decide which one gets the prey civilly? Or even worse, would they work together to eliminate their target quicker?
The melody you mention at 26:00 is a recording from a numbers station, which is a real life phenomenon where a certain audio loop is transmitted over short-wave radio. We estimate these to be from intelligence communities but we arent sure. The specific melody is from a more famous station named "Lincolnshire Poacher". I don't know how it connects to the ARG but it is equally creepy.
Well we know without a doubt that the Lincolnshire Poacher station was an intelligence station, it was broadcast from the HM Government Communications Centre in Buckinghamshire and later from Cyprus.
@@phenk3294 Yeah, it was run out of that building here but then moved to a military base in Cyprus later. Fun fact, from what I've been told the Poacher got copied by the North Koreans after the original shutdown in 2008, they even used the same frequency.
I like to imagine this wasn't what the creature looked like at first before encountering a bunch of stoners and alcoholics that seemed to think it was one of them in some alleyway
Oh! I actually know the origin of the music accompanying the face from tape 7: it’s from a numbers station! The Lincolnshire Poacher, I believe. If you don’t know, numbers stations are radio stations that identify themselves using codes, phrases, or sounds ( simple musical tunes, for example), before listing off numbers, and then ending the series with a simple “end” or string of zeros. They’re commonly believed to be a method of espionage, sending encrypted messages around containing information.
@@hansvonflammenwerfer2817 do you mean in a James Bond kinda way or the actual horror of the unknown being transported in plain sight? Anyways, I think it doesn’t actually have any real significance or meaning, it’s pretty much a ghost story with little to no merit, and was probably added to make the video a bit creepier.
This analog horror is filled to the brim with AH cliches. If I discovered it first, I would have said it's one of the best AH has to offer, but as a seasoned enjoyer of AH, I'd say it's alright, there's nothing here that breaks the mold. That said, it's not bad by any means, I commend the creator for making and sharing this stuff, it definitely has plenty for the newcomers.

Fun fact: that slowed music is actually some kind of meme song. I forgot the name, but it's usually used for spinning animals and whatnot.
explains the weird face my dad has been making lately...
14:27 his head shadow dont change
That makes it even more creepier.
Probably bc it’s a fictional series
22:40 I believe the second [....] says " He is not seen normally, by/my lord, help us"
26:55 wasnt expecting this dance lol
Ok but can he handle getting filled with some good old lead.
I think the art of this series is really good and unsettling but that bit right at the beginning with the old poem thingy, it was just adding eth to literally every word, other than that this series is great
13:56 that looks more goofy than scary. It's like that meme "Hello X from Y". Liebet's delay is just a cherry on top.
19:20 doc censored face, but not shadow
My question is what would happen if multiple met at one location? Would they fight in a death match against each other to see who gets the prey? Or would they decide which one gets the prey civilly? Or even worse, would they work together to eliminate their target quicker?
This seriee goes ham with the creepy distorted faces to the point it's not even scary
everetjwoodward wouldn't let this shit happen for sure
22:36 100% sure that says "He runs around"
22:40, sure that says something like "he's not seen normally by anyone"
26:21 The music is the lincolnshire poacher number station's tune
8:21
*Casually becomes an Alternate*
The melody you mention at 26:00 is a recording from a numbers station, which is a real life phenomenon where a certain audio loop is transmitted over short-wave radio. We estimate these to be from intelligence communities but we arent sure. The specific melody is from a more famous station named "Lincolnshire Poacher". I don't know how it connects to the ARG but it is equally creepy.
Well we know without a doubt that the Lincolnshire Poacher station was an intelligence station, it was broadcast from the HM Government Communications Centre in Buckinghamshire and later from Cyprus.
@@drunkonsuccess779 Oh damn, I didn't know that it was run by Brits. I mean it makes sense but I didnt know it had been confirmed.
@@phenk3294 Yeah, it was run out of that building here but then moved to a military base in Cyprus later. Fun fact, from what I've been told the Poacher got copied by the North Koreans after the original shutdown in 2008, they even used the same frequency.
12:15 The picture used is the alien species from Fantastic Planet. Real trippy movie.
those glass breaking background noises scared the shit out of me
0:37 the heck is it describing me 😂
Please don't play EAS noises at the beginning of videos, or even without a warning. Certain devices listen for EAS sound and react to it.
I like to imagine this wasn't what the creature looked like at first before encountering a bunch of stoners and alcoholics that seemed to think it was one of them in some alleyway
Oh! I actually know the origin of the music accompanying the face from tape 7: it’s from a numbers station! The Lincolnshire Poacher, I believe.
If you don’t know, numbers stations are radio stations that identify themselves using codes, phrases, or sounds ( simple musical tunes, for example), before listing off numbers, and then ending the series with a simple “end” or string of zeros. They’re commonly believed to be a method of espionage, sending encrypted messages around containing information.
So it's a spy's theme?
@@hansvonflammenwerfer2817 do you mean in a James Bond kinda way or the actual horror of the unknown being transported in plain sight?
Anyways, I think it doesn’t actually have any real significance or meaning, it’s pretty much a ghost story with little to no merit, and was probably added to make the video a bit creepier.
@@Pseudoaquanaut TF2 inside joke.
13:57 bro when I heard libets delay after he said that I genuinely got chills.
How to live a happy life?
Shows grass
*And then I took it personally*
The Detective named after Jerma took me out of it instantly
Bro, if I saw a warning of this creature on my TV, I’d be driving out of that place immediately.
This analog horror is filled to the brim with AH cliches. If I discovered it first, I would have said it's one of the best AH has to offer, but as a seasoned enjoyer of AH, I'd say it's alright, there's nothing here that breaks the mold. That said, it's not bad by any means, I commend the creator for making and sharing this stuff, it definitely has plenty for the newcomers.
I was watching this off and on at work
With how many Analog horror series there are, i want an Analog Horror Fighting game
In terms of the non world ending ones, The man in the suit would be a top tier.
If i saw that thing I'd call kevin
Nah you got it all wrong. You gotta call Saul.
GOD NO NOT WISCONSIN IM EVEN MORE SCARED NOW I LIVE THERE
Haha cope
The Basswood County humanoid sold me fent behind Dollar Tree
He touched my ass in a denny's
13:56 I feel like I heard this song in a meme once
The music is from a number station, I can't remember the name of the song but it was a british number station and an old british song
”Look mandela chatalogue did great so lets copy it and make it our own idea”
I can't believe the basswood creep was the Manhattan Mangler
Yeah hell no they can catch me on the earliest flight to California i am not staying in that county if i see one and survive the night
I couldn't sleep bc of this. Even though I know it isn't real, my brain still had the fight or flight response ready
I don't know how I even watched Basswood... it's less creepy than the "jumpscare" in the mortal kombat krypt
