- "Are You Afraid of the Dark?" is a 90s children's horror anthology show that air on Nickelodeon. The show is about kids who sit around a campfire and tell scary stories (also known as the Midnight Society) and us as the audience get to watch those scary stories.
In todays video we take a look at "The Tale of the Ghastly Grinner" a comic book villain brought to life to terrorize the kids of the episode. He has the power to laugh so loud it causes his victims to turn into "Giggling Idiots", so his victims just laugh until blue goo comes drooling out of their mouth. The Grinner himself has a terrifying aura and with his horrifying laugh and hideous smile he if definitely one of the SCARIEST villain's in all of "Are you Afraid of the Dark". JOIN ME WHILE WE WATCH/BREAKDOWN THE TALE OF THE GHASTLY GRINNER

My man watching my Paramount and Making Banger videos with it 🎉
I tried to not disappoint
@@kingnusmiW
The Midnight Society's sleep schedule must be absolutely fricked
AGREED but also what teenager’s sleep schedule isn’t
Or is it irony and they just meet up and after dark? 🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@Nicol3c87 it seems they aren't very afraid of the dark!
Well they dont call em the noon society
Nah, they’re teens. It’s normal for them to
5:35 To be fair, the guy _blew up a hotdog_ in a see-through _microwave_ for his class. I doubt he "hates fun." Also, the line "Correction, it's _none_ of a kind" hits *really* hard.
I was SO disappointed when I found out it was just non dairy creamer. 😭😂
RIGHT
I used to think it was Sawdust!!!
I thought it was color changing sand
I remember that he is the homage of The Joker
Oh yeah it’s pretty obvious they just made him a Jester and not a clown
I knew the Grinner has to do with the Joker. Thanks for the info.
@@kingnusmiDevil May Cry 3 had a monster clown as well, that being Jester, Arkham's alter ego. The fact everyone(Dante, Vergil, and Lady) gets annoyed by his mere presence and Adam D Clark's performance as both characters really made them sound distinct. Hell, the entire voice acting of DMC3 is so damn good(including Reuben Langdon as Dante, Daniel Southworth as Vergil, Kari Wahlgren/Stephanie Cheeva as Lady, Larry Leong as the demons/Cerberus/Beowulf/Agni & Rudra, Lani Minella as Hell Vanguard, and Mary Elizabeth McGlynn as Nevan). One of the best exchanges between characters was during Mission 13: "Don't be a bad girl, Mary." *Throws her* "Or you'll expect a spanking from daddy later!" "Ahahahahahaha!" 🎵Jester's gonna spank your butt, spank you in the buuuuuuutt!🎵 "Insane buffoon!"
I suggest doing: Tale of the Dead Man's Float, Apartment 214, Laughing in the Dark, Dangerous Soup, and Tale of Old Man Corcoran.
completely agree with your choices
Is apartment 214, that one with the old lady on the End of the floor?
@@Timberfake678 indeed
@@TheIgnoredGender that one is so intense!
Yes
I love watching this guy's videos because he reviews shows like Goosebumps, Are You Afraid Of The Dark, and other shows. Which you don’t see a lot and he’s also funny. Nice seeing someone from a Goosebumps episode in this show.
Always prefered his over "Attack of the Mutant"; still goofy though
Very goofy I love this episode
Attack of the mutant was goosebumps biggest flops that was an awful episode
I remember reenacting the blue goo scenes with gushers as a kid with my best friends.
I was going to make a gusher joke! Now I wish I did 🤣
My favorite episode of Are You Afraid of the Dark is Tale of Station 109.1. It isn’t scary but full of humor and stars Ryan Gossling and the wonderful late Gilbert Godfried
The series must really like having clowns as villains, Crimson Clown, Zeebo and Ghastly Grinner
Can't wait love this episode the thought of a comic book villain coming to life is terrifying😥😰😨😱
I think that would be really fun!
@@kingnusmiscary but fun none the less😂also love the channel❤❤
Evans Dad is dressed like biff at the end of back to the Future
LOL he is I didn’t even notice
They always reminded me of the parents from Matilda
Who up frightening their villain rn 🤣😂
😈😈
@@kingnusmi WAIT KINGNUSMI SAW THIS?!
@@maximumtommy8554 I’m always watching 👀
I'm up grinning my ghastly rn.
@@maximumtommy8554calm down.
watching your channel grow makes me happy man i love how you go over my early childhood shows
Great vid! Was a pleasure to hang out.
Thanks bro! I appreciate you coming out!
Seeing you wear a Junji Ito shirt in a video a little while ago and now talking about PTSD radio makes me totally want to see you do a video/ videos on disturbing/horror themed Manga/Manhwas! Great video!
like I know that the Ghastly Grinner power like the Joy from Gumball
Holy crap he does 🤣
To be fair, the only thing Ethan's parents really did was tell him to get his grades up or they would take his art supplies away, which i think is more then called for if his grades were slipping that badly. Seems like they may have been a little absent emotionally, but that is a common pit fall for a lot of parents. They weren't perfect parents obviously, but who parents really are/were? Not to mention, who bought all those art supplies for him in the first place? I think they were a bit more supportive then we are lead to believe. Great video btw!
another banger!! i didnt know abt this show before i found your channel and now im so happy i did because it become a new favorite
Another banger, g👌🏾 You’re my guy! You’re doing amazing and I’m really rooting for you✊🏾
This is a very interesting and frightening episode with a cool and frightening monster here. It's like the Joker with deadly powers of making others laugh to be kinda like him. Or as the description to his super powers says, "the power of his looks being so ugly that makes other people into giggling idiots". Or something around those lines.
One of my favorite episodes for Are you Afraid of the Dark. Cool to see you do another video for a episode of Are you Afraid of the Dark. Hope to see you cover more episodes here since so far you did only two here.
I recommend checking out the clown episodes of this show. Or if you want less creepy laughs and clowns, I also recommend watching, "The Tale of the Hatching".
The ghastly grinner is definitely one of the better AYAOTD episodes! I do want to make more videos on this show! especially the later seasons have some really good episodes
Been watching for a while. Thanks for bringing such good content. Keep it up man
I always put my comic books in the microwave
You’re not the only one apparently
I got this cool book that was part comic and my stupid 5th grade teacher didnt take kindly to me reading during his lame lecture and took my book and chucked it on top of a tall cabinet and smugly says "its dusty and gross up there, I aint gonna get it back"
Hated school man
One of my favourite shows as a kid was "round the twist". It was about an Australian family who lived in a haunted lighthouse. It had one of the best theme tunes ever.
I’ll have to check it out! It’s peaked my interest
Keep on rocking my man hope your week is going well
Excuse me whilst I pause this stellar content so I may add ALL of PTSD Radio into my Amazon cart.
So glad I found your channel!
1. The teacher dumping the comic book in the fish tank was way out of line.
2. Excellent episode w/ an good ending :)
How much for ptsd radio sounds like a lovely summer read
lol his parents "Pay more atteention in school while we pay as little atention to you as we can."
Damn this is your best video yet!! I really liked the part where the guy was afraid of the dark
That’s my favorite part too!
Man just slaps the posters from his 10 year old siblings bedroom on his wall and calls it a backdrop.
You have an odd fixation on my posters 🤣
Fantastic episode as always, but I'm actually just thrilled to see someone talking about PTSD Radio! Masaaki Nakayama is the bomb, his other anthology horror manga Fuan no Tane is also amazing fun to read. I would love physical copies of both.
I’ll definitely check out Fuan no Tane I need a new horror manga
The last part reminds me of the end of the music video for take on me, also great video top quality as always.
The Ghastly Grinner scared the hell out of me as a kid, but this is one of the episodes that didn't hold up for me because of the acting from the kids. 😂 It reminded me of The Tale of the Phantom Cab, where those two kids couldn't act, either. Still a memorable episode, though. The Grinner's design is just 😩🤌
After looking back at the episode,I realize how much Ethan's parents acts like Matilda's parents in the movie.
Hey King, there's an episode of the haunting hour with a vaguely similar concept! It's one of the best in the series imo. It's called "Brush With Madness." Also, great video, live this channel!
thanks man! Its already on the list hopefully I can get to it soon!
Man, this episode was a banger. This, Laughing in the Dark and Dead Man's Float are easily the top three scariest episodes
Love your videos man!
Thanks bro!
love these videos, it would be really cool if you watched the reboot episodes they are really good and each season has their own story throughout each season and its really cool. ALl in all keep up the good work I really enjoy your videoes.
the Ghastly Grinner in my mind is what a child of Pennywise would be like
Glad I was able to watch the premiere
Same here bro!
One of the first episodes of Are You Afraid of The Dark I ever saw. I didn’t think much about it at first, then a couple nights later it started to give me the creeps.
This was my favorite story from the series, and I forget how heartfelt that ending was.
This feels like “Attack of the mutant” done right.
100% agree
Coincidence that the comic episode with joker reference includes a teacher that looks like Stan Lee.
That comic that got fish tanked since its 1 of 1 would be worth millions just from a collectors prospective
Would love to see you review the tale of many faces!
yay more vids
I love these vids so much
Let’s go!!! Thanks for the support!

Woah, woah, woah,
In Earth- 12180, he also is just a comic book character
Such a sad existence for both universes
Genuinely the art they made for this episode was really cool
I have to assume the individual who learned that creamer was the best thing to use for the flames learned a few hard lessons along the way...
“I wonder what happens if I put gasoline in the fire”
i like how as the series went on their where little hints that something supernatural was REALLY happening, like the fire starting in this episode, it makes for good build up for tale of the silver sight
Just discovered your channel watched the crimson clown one episode terrified me as a kid since you like creepy dolls you should do the tale of the dollmaker
I can't take the guy seriously with a name like "The Ghastly Grinner." Like OH NO here comes the SCARY GRABBER!!!
Actually it would be the ghastly grabber
King:not surprised
King:*leaving us to watch his 360p videos* jp lol
Ethan was also in Billy Madison. "wait till they start with the wedgies"
I used to love this show just started watching it with my boyfriend all thanks to seeing your videos on it ❤
You should cover Haunting Hour episodes too like Best Friends Forever. That ending got me 😅
It’s on the list! Maybe I can get to it soon
Man actually has a funko Spiderman poster and says his not soy.
Seems like someone is jealous of my cool ass spiderman poster 😏
There is one Are You afraid of the Dark? episode that stuck with me all this time.
Well, one of many, but this one in particular because it's weird.
"Station 109.1" is about a kid obsessed with funerals and sleeping like a corpse in the coffin. One day he hears a radio station 109.1 in a hearse or something? And it turns out this is radio for the dead souls.
Apparently Ryan Gosling played the kid.
I think in the 90’s, everything negative was called creepy.
I’m already so exited for the rest of this also the amount of times you said the f bomb that’s new
heheheh I might’ve went a little crazy with the cursing in this video
@@kingnusmi yeah but at least it’s still a good video I may watch this epiosde cause I watched it when I was younger I fucking pissed my self and let’s see if I’m still scared and opps I swore
First of all, fun story: the Joker gas(at least in btas) didn't make his victims laugh themselves *to death*. It literally couldn't, because TV censors wouldn't allow the cartoon villains to actually kill people and the show writers had to come up with a way to get around that. So they invented a gas that put victims in a coma, and frankly, the show would've been less nightmare inducing(and less frickin awesome) if he'd just been allowed to kill people. Yes I am fun at parties, why do you ask?
Second, Hooper was weirder than the creepy ass villain. She introduces herself to Ethan on the phone("I sit across from you in science class"), then when they run into each other outside she starts saying the exact same thing before he cuts her off like he didn't already know her?? Then she introduces herself AGAIN in the science class like they haven't been fighting for their lives this whole time. Idk if she's supposed to be neurodivergent or whatever, but it comes off as weird.
Third, is there a rule in these spooky kids shows that the parents have to suck total butt?
LOVE WHEN MY FAVORITE YAPPER DROPS NEW CONTENT ‼️
Teacher that threw the comic in the fish tank is the real villain.
Amazing video bro this is my first time hearing of this guy
Oh boy do I have the video for you then! Thanks for the tip big yellow!!
Oh boy do I have the video for you then! Thanks for the tip big yellow!!
IM IN THE PAID CREDITS MY POOR BOBA EMOJI 😭😭
The king is back!!!!;do you plan on talking about irl stuff or cripteds agine
I want too!! Maybe I can work on one soon!
I have that manga on my wishlist. Ty for letting me know I should order it 😊
How tf did she erase a fully inked piece as a artist I WANT THAT ERASER 😭
My man I think I remember watching this weird clown manipulate people into fighting I think anyways, I think I watched this episode in church which is crazy. I love your work man keep up the great job.
lol watching a horror show in church is awesome 🤣
Joker decided he wanted a new suit
The joker in his PJ’s
My mom could have sworn I watched this movie when I was about 8. My first R rated film I had watched was The Conjuring and I watched that around 9. Then a few weeks later, I bring it up and she swears that then I watched it. Either I have no memory of anything or she is fuckin delusional because this was a few years ago and she STILL remembers me watching this movie. I know not a single character, nor a monster, not even the plot or setting.
This guy not having over a million subscribers is scary.
Maybe if I screamed and jumped into my pc set up more I would get there 🤔
@@kingnusmi I believe in you.
"its one of a kind!" Yeah uhh why did he take it to school? Lole!
Tale of the Dead Man’s Float definitely has the scariest villain. Bleghhh!!! I still think about it and i haven’t watched that episode since it prob came out in 1995 because it was that disturbing! And i am someone who loves horror even from a very young age, but seeing that thing at 7 years old just stuck with me.
This one was definitely one of my favorites. If you could do movie madness, the bookish babysitter, jake and the leprechaun, or train magic I would love that
This particular episode was responsible for more bed wedding in the 90s then child abuse was
I’d believe it bro
THIS EPISODE TRAUMATIZED ME BRO. CORE MEMORY UNLOCKED!?
4:41 i wasn't prepared for that sleep paralysis demon looking thing
LOL I told you it has awesome imagery lol
5:50 damn I thought you were about to do a Matilda reference
I woke up n got fresh ahh hell onna Monday 🗣️
As soon as I saw this I just yelled at the top of my lungs “let’s gooo!!!!!!”
My roommate heard me
“Umm… I think the name Aquaman sounds a little bit cooler…” 🤣 big fax
That „Chad Superman looks like the guy from big bang theory. 🤣🤷🏼♂️
Definitely one of the scariest episodes.
Wow I want Frankie’s outfit
Anyways
Yeah very solid episode I can definitely understand why it was/is so well loved
yeah like we need a Magic School Bus review since it is cool to see
Maybe FU DW can do one 🤔
@@kingnusmi I see you do it since it is nostalgia and there is an episode where Ralphie think Ms. Frizzle was a Vampire in the bat episode
The art in the comics with them being turned is actually pretty freaky without a "for a kids show" tacked on.
LETS GO ANOTHER SPOOKY VIDEO
YUH YUH
When my friend wanted to watch AYAOTD and he'd never seen it before, this was the second episode I chose for him to watch
certainly of the best episodes in the series
there is an episode that plays with the ghost of a girl on prom night trope and kind of the woman in white urban legend. that be a dope video essay.
You should talk about some courage the cowardly dog episodes :)
Nice. I didn’t know that was 1 of chuck and Steve it’s the long hair
So it's just scary Captain Underpants😂
Memory unlocked
PTSD Radio is honestly one of my favorite serirs ever!
