    the little red riding hood scene was definitely disturbing on the first watch, but her blowing away her family somehow undercut the horror of the scene for me because it wasn’t the method i was expecting. every rewatch since, though, it works better for me and doesn’t take me out of the scene anymore. especially when Red says “what did you do to me?” at the end

      Also the moment emily when like
      "i guess i just kind of wanna...
      have they left the house yet"
      that was soooo disturbing and so good like god emily is so good at this

    emily played a scared 12 year old so well, i genuinely get a bit emotional at the way red says "i can fix it something's wrong i can fix it" and then the way she gets so angry after entering the house is just jabdnansbajkdbs i love it

    I CANNOT BELIEVE HOW WELL BRENNAN SET UP THE BACKSTORY FOR LOU’S PINNOCHIO! Having all of the fathers in the village die a gruesome death once their name is spoken, so that Pinnochio has no other choice but to lie! Fucking brilliant!!!

    8:55 i was so surprised Brennan gave Siobhan the other option even after she rolled, given that it’s the horror season. i thought “huh, maybe the aesthetics are harsh but Brennan will not go super hard on them”. then episode three happened

      as someone who’s very new to horror, the body horror stuff so far has been some of the scariest for me, and Siobhan really sold that scene with her acting

    Brennan’s story for Siobhan is so incredible. The briars representing fear, her singing to soothe them so they let their guard down, the damage she endured while escaping. Knowing Brennan, I wouldn’t be surprised if Siobhan in real life was struggling with the comfortability of fear so he set up a way for her to work through it by proxy. Her body language suggests she was a little uncomfortable with the realization. Brennan is truly an intentional human being with great empathy and a master storyteller.

    i really really reallly loooove the like
    the slow realization of the thing in the wood as red riding hood touches the book,
    it's very much like
    and it goes from "oh shit" to "OH SHIT" real fast and the like
    god that was so good

      I was telling my partner when watching that part that I understood bc it felt like when I had sinus surgery and then had to get the gauze out. It had been in my nose for like a week (so I couldn't breathe out my nose, which was the worst part tbh) while the blood formed around the gauze tubes and I swear when they ripped them out, my brain shut down and then rebooted in real time lol. I had been listening to this podcast called "Cabinet of Curiosities" and so the only thought my brain had during the gauze ripping out was "I'm...Aaron Mahnke. And this. Is Cabinet of Curiosities" as if it just went back to a save point lol. It was wild.

    So another thing tthat spikes a similar kindof interest as this is have you ever heard about the mechanics?
    it's a series of like narrative albums about stories and stuff and it's really really really good
    look for "once upon a time in space" and you'll see what i mean it's soo fucking good

    It's good horror but like it's kinda weak just imagining it idk. I'm a visceral person, I love gore and horror. This just doesn't do it for me.
