A story came to mind whilst I was listening to this. Would mind if I told it? ~ "Piano Man." He was known far and wide for his musical talent. People would travel from all over to hear him play the piano, and so, to not displease a crowd, he played indeed. Oh, how the people loved his music. It reminded them of sweet Summer days, of young love and of great joy. Yes, they loved his music.... but they didn't necessarily love him. They didn't know the man creating the music, didn't bother to know him. They didn't care to know about his love of books and animals, his dreams of finding someone dear to love, his plans to change the world for the better. In a way, he'd already accomplished his last goal. His talent brought people together. Only, it wasn't he himself that others remembered. Only his music. He knew this, and he knew it well. He was an ambitious man, one who wasn't known for giving up easily, so he decided he would do something about it. His home was a grand, luxurious mansion that had been in his family for years. It was admired by all, and any opportunity a person could get to be invited inside was seized. On one night in Spring, he held one of his notorious concerts at his home and, just like any other time, people flocked to the mansion to hear his music. He played all through the night as people danced, a wonderful party ensuing. Laughter and chatter rang through the halls, as well as the glorious sounds of the piano. The night was perfect. Only at dawn did the event end, and people soon left the manor, the man's songs replaying in their heads. However, the man stopped a young woman on her way out, inviting her to stay a short while longer. If he was honest, he'd had his eye on her for a while now. Perhaps it was her eyes that shone like sapphires, or her wispy hair that rested on her shoulders like dark waterfalls. Perhaps it was her sweet laughter that always brought a smile to his face, or her own smile that radiated with joy. Whatever it was, he simply couldn't turn away from her. He promised her more music if she stayed. She agreed. In the hours to come, the sounds of the piano continued on, all played for the sweet girl. She laughed and sang and danced, and one time, even played alongside him. It was a perfect duet. He convinced her to stay for the rest of the day, continuing to promise her more music. Like everyone else, she was infatuated with his talent, so she had agreed almost immediately. This continued for days. She came to visit him, to listen to his songs.... to even get to know the man creating them. Soon enough, he didn't even have to ask her - she came to the manor willingly. "I love you." He heard the words after months of her visits. He smiled. Finally. He had done it. "I love you as well." They made a life for themselves at that mansion, their love growing stronger each day. Music filled their lives, surrounding them with joy. Rarely did they ever feel unhappy. But outside of their perfect little world, the people began to notice a change in the musician. He hadn't played for them in such a long time. They knew he was still alive, for they could faintly hear the sounds of the piano drifting down from the mansion and into the town. Perhaps.... he didn't care about them anymore? Ever since that girl had entered his life, and especially now with the addition of their new child, fewer and fewer of his concerts had been public. Oh, this made them angry. This infuriated them!! They would not settle for the snippets of music they could hear from the town. They wanted _all_ of it. But, it seemed as though he would not be hosting another concert for a long while now. So, if they could not have his music.... nobody could. There was only one way to guarantee this. One night in Spring, the people stormed the mansion. Driven to madness without his music, they found each of the manor's inhabitants, and promptly ended their lives. The home was broken and ransacked in the chaos. Nothing was left behind. Some say that, even to this day, if you listen close enough, you can still hear his music still playing up in the manor. You might also hear the creaking of doors and floorboards, and an infant's sweet, innocent laughter. Nobody has ever dared to venture inside, though.... but will you change that? ~ Oh, this was so much longer than I expected it to be. So sorry about that. ^^' Would any readers mind giving me some reviews and criticism, please? It'd be greatly appreciated!! :D
That was a neat story, short and concise, not too long at all. It's quite difficult to pack that much into so short a text but I think you pulled it off quite nicely. A couple things I thought about as a reader were the amount of spacing between paragraphs and the village people themselves seemed petty, jealous and vindictive. Was that intentional? If so, that works to create a cruel world around the main character that he ultimately fell victim to. A few questions I had were: Did these townsfolk make any attempts to persuade the pianist to perform for them more? If so, were they simply turned away? Those are my thoughts, consider them if you will.
@@williamerickson520 Thank you very much for reading my story and leaving your thoughts!! Here's what I have to say in regards to them: 1. Yes, the townsfolk are supposed to seem selfish and jealous. They adore the pianist's music, but don't care to actually know him ((With the exception of the girl)). When they are eventually without that music, they turn against him in their rage, showing how vindictive they are over something as simple as music. 2. I didn't give a whole lot of thought as to whether the townsfolk tried to persuade the pianist to play for them more, but I can imagine that they did. Thinking about this now, I think that they would have tried to persuade him and that things went on as usual at first, but because of the pianist's new life with the girl being his focus, he gradually would have denied them more and more, giving more of his attention to the girl. This is where the people's jealousy would come into play. I hope these answers are what you were looking for, and again I thank for reading my story and leaving your criticism!! :)
Ok, this was amazing. I enjoyed every single word that you've written. Especially this one: "will you change that?". It fits well for an RPG, in my opinion. As someone obsessed for ghosts, I thank you for sharing this story. Have a nice week!
This is mesmerizing. Listening to these sound ambience sounds while writing a novel is amazing, really helps you to dig deep into the story. Thank you very much
I generally refrain from commenting on youtube, but I just wanted to pop in and say I really appreciate the work you put into these videos. I work from home and I have them on all the time -- it's what keeps me sane :) Also, I _love_ creepy ambience stuff. Hope you'll come out with more videos of that style! Edit: Forgot -- Kudos to all the artists making the background videos too! The work you put in is definitely not wasted :>
Thank you for your comment! It's always nice to hear that my ambiences are helping people through their work day :D I will definetly do more of those in the future as well!
I really like crows too. I think they're very pretty, and they're very smart as well. I watched a program where they had made a food dispenser which only worked if you could solve puzzles; puzzles involving concepts such as water displacement, weight, length = things of that nature. And there I was watching and thinking of how I could not figure out how the things worked, but the crow did!
Someone lives in this mansion , and who is walking ? Cant know never , dont sleep alone in any room at the might night ,because who may come to your side
"Hill House itself, not sane, stood against its hills, holding darkness within; it had stood so for eighty years and might stand for eighty more. Within, its walls continued upright, bricks met neatly, floors were firm, and doors were sensibly shut; silence lay steadily against the wood and stone of hill House, and whatever walked there, walked alone." -Shirley Jackson, "The Haunting of Hill House"
Dude congrats to both you and your players. Horror is by far the most difficult genre to pull off in table top gaming. Requires loads of cooperation between GM and players. Totally worth it though, so effing fun
This mansion has seen a lot already. Maybe even too much. What do you think has happened here over the centuries and... Is that a hand on your shoulder?
This mansion is the villa of the Duke Gaius Flavius Draconius, Duke of Colonia Aquila in Italy, and Chieftain of the Nosferatu Vampire Clan. Draconius was originally a Roman soldier, born in the Third Century AD; eventually (and sometimes through unscrupulous means), he climbed the ranks to become the personal bodyguard to the Emperor himself. It was during this time that he was attacked and turned by a vampire, and concluded that he had been granted a gift by the dark gods of Tartarus. As a vampire, Draconius survived to see the fall of the Roman Empire in the west, and during the medieval period he became a knight in the service of higher rulers, and eventually was granted the Dukedom of Colonia Aquila. As Duke, he formed the Nosferatu Clan, which has the goal of bringing humanity under the rule of vampires forever. From this mansion, Duke Draconius oversees the operations of Clan Nosferatu, including their ongoing war with Clan Revenant, a rival Vampire Clan which believes that any attempt to instate vampiric rule will result in humans rising up to destroy vampires forever, and that the best chance for survival is to continue hunting humans from the shadows. Many have been summoned here by the undead Duke, from unsuspecting human victims whose blood sated his Hunger for the evening to other vampires whom the Duke saw as rivals and invited for a bloody dinner followed by a complimentary beheading or knife through the heart. In the cellar is a hidden room, wherein those who displease him are tortured; sometimes he goes down there to watch for his own amusement. Even when he dismisses his attendants, he is never alone in this place, for the spirits of his victims remain in its dark halls, watching the fanged, undead monster who took their lives as he continues plotting and scheming to achieve his ends.
I recently bought new headphones that are far higher quality than my old ones. This has gone from being a quite relaxing wind & spooky doors ambience to being a horrifying nightmare ambience where every noise sounds very real and VERY close. Incredibly well done, would shit myself to creepy baby noises again.
Never empty, never quiet, too many centuries of long forgotten lore. The lives lived within these stones, oh what a tale they could tell. But don't ask me, ask the company that stayed past their time. And when my life is over, when I'm dead and gone. Be sure to visit our Mansion, I'll be the noisy one. 👻 ⚰ Ruby* P.S. I really love this, wouldn't mind visiting. Beautifully designed and the sounds just blended so well. Thank you. 🕎
In the haunted mansion there is someone and who is walking in the house's all rooms with steps strong , dont try to sleep alone never staying in the rooms'one at the mightnight
The mansion is too scary , someone lives in the lonely mansion and yes l hear foot steps with steps strong walking x the door's creak , thoses me are giving fear , the house seems bad aswell , furthermore it seems like to come to.my side fear someone while i am sleeping in any room in the mightnight
Hey! Can I suggest a scary snow theme? Like a haunted ice cave or a frozen wind-whipped cabin? I don't see many snow ambience that is specifically sinister. All Christmas stuff. I want ambience that is spooky, and cold!
This is by far my favourite one you've made. I don't know why, bu this one oddly has a calming effect on me. Helps me sleep. Would love to see more like it.
Relaxing Ocean Sounds at Night,Cemetary Ambience Sounds,Scary Noises in a Haunted House,Haunted Mansion,Cozy bedroom thunderstorm ,I can't decide which is better:)but I like all I think it depends on the moment
Yes it is a bit of a fixer upper but you can't beat the price, and it comes fully furnished! Oh, the coffin? Don't mind that, the previous owner picked it out for himself. No we don't know where he is, only that he hasn't been seen in a few years so we just assumed he's dead and not still walking around in some forgotten corridor. What piano? I don't hear a piano. Oh THAT piano, yes that's just a music box left on repeat. I'm sure you can track it down and get rid of it if it's bothering you. Drafty? Well where I come from we call that free air conditioning. It keeps this place nice and cool even in the middle of summer. And who doesn't like the dim gas lightning? *cough* Saves energy AND your electric bill. Could you imagine paying for electric lights? No way! Don't need em here! The moaning? That's just the spirit of opportunity saying "Boooo-uy now!" This deal won't come along again! -- oh-- you'll buy it? You don't even need a tour? May I ask why?.... oh you're from New York and anywhere's better than there? I see, should've told me that at the start and I could've skipped the sales jargon.
A couple of years ago, my elderly neighbour died. His family lived some distance away, so we took care of the house until they could come and deal with it personally--opening and closing curtains, checking the mail, etc. One night, I went in to turn the lights off, and just decided to sit down in the dark and listen. You don't realise how many little noises even empty houses make until you do something like that...noises that were almost certainly wind blowing outside, the radiators making sounds as they cooled, a bird in the woods out the back, or a tap dripping in the kitchen. Almost. And those framed photographs that look so sweet look different in the dark. A bit more sinister. Like the eyes are following you. I lasted about five minutes of being certain that someone was coming down the stairs or creeping up behind me before I lost my nerve and nearly ran to the door.
My Mother heard her Father calling her name and she answered. He had died 3 weeks before. My sister had experiences at the College that she attended. Noises coming from an empty room. Someone running down the hallway but when she opened the door the noises stopped immediately. My daughter seeing my Mother almost a year after she died. She also saw the previous owners of the house that we moved into. She told me, "He's not happy that we're living here....he wants us to get out!!" I saw the previous owner as well....as a reflection on a TV screen. He was walking down the hallway towards the kids bedroom. I got up the nerve to go check and no one in there except my children....fast asleep. Very scary and spooky experiences that have happened to our family.
I love castles I love castles at night I love castles at night that are also haunted. I wish I could visit one someday, it looks 100 times more exciting than any amusement park.
@no1 Jack Looks good 👻 I wish I'd live in Scotland, I heard it's a very nice country with lots of countryside(I hate the cities) and old towns and castles.
OMG same and i could dream that one day i will live in a castle in the middle of the forest and having a family there not a human but a ghosts or other paranormal friends and witches ❤
So quiet and yet I hear the soft howling wind and the sound of dishes clanking, and footsteps clopping on the wood floor, wood and doors creaking, ravens cawing and music playing from the old piano all kinds of sounds to say the least.
Token comment to prop this up on the youtube algorithm rankings. Really appreciate your work, possibly the best ambient soundscapes I've listened to thus far.
This goes so well as a background sound, and is rich and complex at the same time. It can't be easy to create such a soundtrack; I 'Like' this, and 'Subscribed' .
Okay, this is my favorite Halloween/haunted ambient track. The sounds are perfect, well blended, no one sound overpowers the rest, they're spaced out well so you don't get tired of any of them. Love it.
Listening to this whilst writing a horror story for uni. Its set within a creepy mansion and this ambience suits the tone perfectly! Thank you so much!
No live organism can continue for long to exist sanely under conditions of absolute reality; even larks and katydids are supposed, by some, to dream. Hill House, not sane, stood by itself against its hills, holding darkness within; it had stood so for eighty years and might stand for eighty more. Within, walls continued upright, bricks met neatly, floors were firm, and doors were sensibly shut; silence lay steadily against the wood and stone of Hill House, and whatever walked there, walked alone.
Thank you SO much for this awesome video! I watch it at least twice a week and everything about it is amazing to me! Your attention to detail the sounds are incredible I just want to jump through the screen and be a part of the haunted dinner! My favorite part is when the door creaks open and you hear a monster 'hiss" it cracks me up! I love it! Thank you so much for sharing your amazing talent with all of us!
i was playing a horror game and the horror guy opened a door and closed one and the ambience played a opening and closing sound of a door!! perfect timing
Nice work, very eerie! You can imagine hearing this after getting lost in a snowstorm in the middle of nowhere then coming across a seemingly abandoned house. That open coffin though... :o
This video was so relaxing to listen to. As I worked at my computer this video helped me to be so calm and productive, Thank you so much for posting. I listened through all of it.
Step one - Play this on loop on a high quality surround sound system Step two - Turn the volume up enough to feel the vibrations of the subwoofer in your body. Step three - Turn off all the lights, lie down, close your eyes and clear your mind. Step four - Enjoy the surreal experience.
Houses... are alive. This is something we know. News from our nerve endings. If we're quiet, if we listen, we can hear houses breath. Sometimes, in the depth of the night, you can even hear them groan. It's as if they were having bad dreams. A good house cradles and comforts, a bad one fills us with instinctive unease. Bad houses hate our warmth and our human-ness. That blind hate of our humanity is what we mean when we use the word "haunted". - Dr. Joyce Reardon, Rose Red (2002) Stand back! Protect yourselves! Who knows what evil lurks behind the hallowed walls in the house of the haunted! - Ed, Ed, Edd n Eddy - Honor Thy Ed Either we take our chances with the ghosts or become ghosts ourselves. - Robin of Locksley, Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves (1991) You see, nobody ever goes in... and nobody ever comes out. - The Tinker, Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory (1971)
I cant come never neither downstairs nor the mansion , someone is walking in the haunted mansion , who is it ? Cant know , l must say that , dont sleep alone where in any room in the mightnight , because who may come to your side for kill
I've never made one of these, so I don't know about what effort it takes. But it would be nice to see some movement- like when the door creaks, the door moves... Or a ghostly figure goes across the balcony...

This is beautifully done! I am beyond stunned you deserve more subscribers! This video reminds me so much of the haunted mansion back at Disneyland, beautifully haunting. I'm curious what's the backstory? :)
Thanks, this scene of nature is fantastic inspiring to me. Really great visual video. Sounds of nature, listening to wind sounds are calming and smooth. A wonderful n peaceful piece for all! Infinite love!🙏
I feel at home, it's the most inviting haunted mansion i've heard... i wanna be there, explore and sit by the fireplace~ It's just me who feel comforted by these sounds, so don't mind me xd;; hahah
I remember when I was a kid I would sleep to the haunted house windows 95 screen saver. This is the HD version of it, lol! Just one small nitpick. I found the howling wind to be a bit to loud. I think it took away from the other creepy sounds a little. Great sleeping video none the less!
Surviving a haunted house is easy, just DO NOT INVESTIGATE ANYTHING!!!!!! Back yourself up in a corner with your back touching the wall. Hunch down and wait the night out. Guarantee you'll live and you'll get that 10 million easy.
I feel like the dog in the game, just relaxing and taking a nap in some room in a bed all cozy or taking a nap in the living room on the floor or the couch just listeing to evrything and feeling comfortable and falling asleep, and i love it ( or digging outside and finding a crystal and thne throwing it into a tree branch )
A story came to mind whilst I was listening to this. Would mind if I told it?
~
"Piano Man."
He was known far and wide for his musical talent. People would travel from all over to hear him play the piano, and so, to not displease a crowd, he played indeed.
Oh, how the people loved his music. It reminded them of sweet Summer days, of young love and of great joy.
Yes, they loved his music.... but they didn't necessarily love him.
They didn't know the man creating the music, didn't bother to know him.
They didn't care to know about his love of books and animals, his dreams of finding someone dear to love, his plans to change the world for the better.
In a way, he'd already accomplished his last goal. His talent brought people together.
Only, it wasn't he himself that others remembered.
Only his music.
He knew this, and he knew it well.
He was an ambitious man, one who wasn't known for giving up easily, so he decided he would do something about it.
His home was a grand, luxurious mansion that had been in his family for years. It was admired by all, and any opportunity a person could get to be invited inside was seized.
On one night in Spring, he held one of his notorious concerts at his home and, just like any other time, people flocked to the mansion to hear his music.
He played all through the night as people danced, a wonderful party ensuing.
Laughter and chatter rang through the halls, as well as the glorious sounds of the piano.
The night was perfect.
Only at dawn did the event end, and people soon left the manor, the man's songs replaying in their heads.
However, the man stopped a young woman on her way out, inviting her to stay a short while longer.
If he was honest, he'd had his eye on her for a while now. Perhaps it was her eyes that shone like sapphires, or her wispy hair that rested on her shoulders like dark waterfalls.
Perhaps it was her sweet laughter that always brought a smile to his face, or her own smile that radiated with joy.
Whatever it was, he simply couldn't turn away from her.
He promised her more music if she stayed.
She agreed.
In the hours to come, the sounds of the piano continued on, all played for the sweet girl.
She laughed and sang and danced, and one time, even played alongside him.
It was a perfect duet.
He convinced her to stay for the rest of the day, continuing to promise her more music. Like everyone else, she was infatuated with his talent, so she had agreed almost immediately.
This continued for days. She came to visit him, to listen to his songs.... to even get to know the man creating them.
Soon enough, he didn't even have to ask her - she came to the manor willingly.
"I love you."
He heard the words after months of her visits.
He smiled. Finally. He had done it.
"I love you as well."
They made a life for themselves at that mansion, their love growing stronger each day.
Music filled their lives, surrounding them with joy.
Rarely did they ever feel unhappy.
But outside of their perfect little world, the people began to notice a change in the musician.
He hadn't played for them in such a long time.
They knew he was still alive, for they could faintly hear the sounds of the piano drifting down from the mansion and into the town.

Ever since that girl had entered his life, and especially now with the addition of their new child, fewer and fewer of his concerts had been public.
Oh, this made them angry. This infuriated them!! They would not settle for the snippets of music they could hear from the town. They wanted _all_ of it.

So, if they could not have his music.... nobody could.
There was only one way to guarantee this.

The home was broken and ransacked in the chaos. Nothing was left behind.
Some say that, even to this day, if you listen close enough, you can still hear his music still playing up in the manor.
You might also hear the creaking of doors and floorboards, and an infant's sweet, innocent laughter.
Nobody has ever dared to venture inside, though.... but will you change that?

Oh, this was so much longer than I expected it to be. So sorry about that. ^^'

Haunted houses always have a piano, organ or harpsicord. They never have a kazoo.
People who can afford such a manor may have a Kazoo stored in one of their chests.
@@noldorwarrior7791 No ghost ever plays a kazoo.
I can just imagine being lost in a haunted house and suddenly you hear kazoo noises behind you
the spirits mock you with a kazoo
We need more kazoos in horror movies.

I don't know why I love the sound of a crow... Does anyone else? 🖤
Do you love scary foot steps ? yes in the mansion someone is walking with strong steps . I think that you dont want to see the monster walking where
Me too
@@kiracrystalI think these are ravens. Ravens make more of a croaking sound.
reminds me of resident evil 1 on playstation back in the day
I really like crows too.
I think they're very pretty, and they're very smart as well.
I watched a program where they had made a food dispenser which only worked if you could solve puzzles; puzzles involving concepts such as water displacement, weight, length = things of that nature.

ok, and how many of you would actually stay for one night while hearing these sounds?
why maybe some have aquan tances here......... welcome...
I wouldn't have a choice, since my dead body is not famous for being able to escape...
In Italy, you normally hear these so I'd probably just assume it's a bunch of cats (it always it... Those damn cats!!!)
EZ
I would
This hit hard especially when the music started. So incredibly detailed and creepy. The howling wind sound is just amazing. What a masterpiece!
Damn, This ghost has a more active life than I do ... with all that walking about.
Someone lives in this mansion , and who is walking ? Cant know never , dont sleep alone in any room at the might night ,because who may come to your side
I was just thinking how many steps do they take in a 24 hour period?
They’re restless human souls who can’t find their path to heaven for numerous reasons. Either by unfinished business or a curse. Whatever the reason.
they just touring their new Mansion they won in a contest they didn't enter.....
Put it on the big TV , turn the lights out, perfect! , wish I could live there.
would you really, you do realize that once you enter it's difficult to leave.....
Better yet: play it through hidden speakers in somebody else's house and keep it when they move out in the middle of the night.
What a good idea!! Im going to do this.
I do that at the moment😂
please stay away from me :3

inspiring isnt it....

Ooh, that's creepy!! I love it!! :D
One of the best opening lines ever written.
Reading it now
Used in a D&D horror one-shot. After an hour, my players were saying they heared footsteps in the roof, totally worth it.

I recently bought new headphones that are far higher quality than my old ones. This has gone from being a quite relaxing wind & spooky doors ambience to being a horrifying nightmare ambience where every noise sounds very real and VERY close. Incredibly well done, would shit myself to creepy baby noises again.
Who else wants to have tea at the table and tell spooky stories
I’m in for stories but I’m not sure I’d eat or drink anything I was given in this *particular* domicile...
I'd do it if mad hatter was there
@@JB-xl2jc Try the red wine. It has a unique taste that some might describe as....hearty.
I’m all for it. Count me in.

Your sounds are perfect! I love the continuous whistling wind and the echoing sounds. You are so talented!
Thanks so much! :D

Hard to believe that Pennywise the Dancing Clown would be afraid of children laughing and a little hoarse breathing. lol
Sorry, guys that was just my COPD. I weeze, cough and fart a lot and pee a little when I do. Sometimes i do it all at the same
@@chriskirkland6976 NOPE. Leave the bags! Run to the car!
Never empty, never quiet, too many centuries of long forgotten lore.
The lives lived within these stones, oh what a tale they could tell.
But don't ask me, ask the company that stayed past their time.
And when my life is over, when I'm dead and gone. Be sure to visit our Mansion, I'll be the noisy one. 👻

P.S. I really love this, wouldn't mind visiting.
Beautifully designed and the sounds just blended so well.
Thank you. 🕎
When I'm dead, I'll be the one on the harpsichord and you can sing along with me!
Thank you so much Ruby, always nice to read one of your comments :)
@@AmbienceLab great ambience, thank you guys for such a thought provoking video!
In the haunted mansion there is someone and who is walking in the house's all rooms with steps strong , dont try to sleep alone never staying in the rooms'one at the mightnight
Makes me feel like I'm playing Resident Evil! All the items laying around must be there to solve puzzles! :-D

Very funny, you two 🤣
The mansion is too scary , someone lives in the lonely mansion and yes l hear foot steps with steps strong walking x the door's creak , thoses me are giving fear , the house seems bad aswell , furthermore it seems like to come to.my side fear someone while i am sleeping in any room in the mightnight
@@princessmarlena1359 lol
Hey Ambience Lab! This is super spooky and your audio mixing is on another level. Do you record all your sounds or do you use samples?
Press F to pay respect
Oof
@Andrew Loverich would you dare to stay in so a place at the mightnight ? Forexample l wouldnt have stayed in this mansion
I would like to live in a beautiful place like this, breathing in the antiquity of yesteryear 🖤🖤🖤
Scuzzballs never replied
Yes, this immediately gave me haunted mansion vibes. Sometimes you just want a Halloween haunted quiet ghost vibe. Found it! Thank you. 😊
Hey! Can I suggest a scary snow theme? Like a haunted ice cave or a frozen wind-whipped cabin? I don't see many snow ambience that is specifically sinister. All Christmas stuff. I want ambience that is spooky, and cold!
This is by far my favourite one you've made. I don't know why, bu this one oddly has a calming effect on me. Helps me sleep. Would love to see more like it.
The mansion's inside is too terrible to discover . Aswell The effects of the sounds baby's sound and ghost's sound is very little
Same..😏
Relaxing Ocean Sounds at Night,Cemetary Ambience Sounds,Scary Noises in a Haunted House,Haunted Mansion,Cozy bedroom thunderstorm ,I can't decide which is better:)but I like all I think it depends on the moment
This is one of the best ambience videos I've seen.
M-m-m-m-Mario?
@@clearlyacryptid303 do you get the reference
BOO!!!
Why iz thiz not hearted already
Yes!!
sounds like my house
Thought you lived in a sewer
Wait I thought you were just an illusion made up of fear
sounds like my apartment lol
could i come over sometime
@@luciathekiller5596 would you dare to stay one night in this haunted mansion ? You must know that l wouldnt have stayed never
YES. THANK YOU youtube recs. My August was LACKING THIS.
Yes it is a bit of a fixer upper but you can't beat the price, and it comes fully furnished! Oh, the coffin? Don't mind that, the previous owner picked it out for himself. No we don't know where he is, only that he hasn't been seen in a few years so we just assumed he's dead and not still walking around in some forgotten corridor. What piano? I don't hear a piano. Oh THAT piano, yes that's just a music box left on repeat. I'm sure you can track it down and get rid of it if it's bothering you. Drafty? Well where I come from we call that free air conditioning. It keeps this place nice and cool even in the middle of summer. And who doesn't like the dim gas lightning? *cough* Saves energy AND your electric bill. Could you imagine paying for electric lights? No way! Don't need em here! The moaning? That's just the spirit of opportunity saying "Boooo-uy now!" This deal won't come along again! -- oh-- you'll buy it? You don't even need a tour? May I ask why?.... oh you're from New York and anywhere's better than there? I see, should've told me that at the start and I could've skipped the sales jargon.
A couple of years ago, my elderly neighbour died. His family lived some distance away, so we took care of the house until they could come and deal with it personally--opening and closing curtains, checking the mail, etc. One night, I went in to turn the lights off, and just decided to sit down in the dark and listen.
You don't realise how many little noises even empty houses make until you do something like that...noises that were almost certainly wind blowing outside, the radiators making sounds as they cooled, a bird in the woods out the back, or a tap dripping in the kitchen. Almost. And those framed photographs that look so sweet look different in the dark. A bit more sinister. Like the eyes are following you.
I lasted about five minutes of being certain that someone was coming down the stairs or creeping up behind me before I lost my nerve and nearly ran to the door.
My Mother heard her Father calling her name and she answered.
He had died 3 weeks before.
My sister had experiences at the College that she attended.
Noises coming from an empty room.
Someone running down the hallway but when she opened the door the noises stopped immediately.
My daughter seeing my Mother almost a year after she died.
She also saw the previous owners of the house that we moved into.
She told me, "He's not happy that we're living here....he wants us to get out!!"
I saw the previous owner as well....as a reflection on a TV screen.
He was walking down the hallway towards the kids bedroom.
I got up the nerve to go check and no one in there except my children....fast asleep.
Very scary and spooky experiences that have happened to our family.
I love castles
I love castles at night
I love castles at night that are also haunted.
I wish I could visit one someday, it looks 100 times more exciting than any amusement park.
@no1 Jack Looks good 👻 I wish I'd live in Scotland, I heard it's a very nice country with lots of countryside(I hate the cities) and old towns and castles.
I love old castles , but aswell l am being scared enough not to go old houses and castles in the evening
OMG same and i could dream that one day i will live in a castle in the middle of the forest and having a family there not a human but a ghosts or other paranormal friends and witches ❤
So quiet and yet I hear the soft howling wind and the sound of dishes clanking, and footsteps clopping on the wood floor, wood and doors creaking, ravens cawing and music playing from the old piano all kinds of sounds to say the least.
Token comment to prop this up on the youtube algorithm rankings. Really appreciate your work, possibly the best ambient soundscapes I've listened to thus far.
Love listening to this and Ghostly galaxy theme at the same time, it’s beautiful
There's only one downside to this video. It's too short! I loved every second of this!
Put it on loop
@@jonathancain8142 That....that would make a lot of sense, wouldn't it?
*WHAT A MANSION*
*gunshot in the distance*
Sure is a Funky Old House, ain't it?
We find it delightfully unlivable here in this ghostly retreat. Every room has wall-to-wall creeps, and hot-and-cold running chills.
Me: Puts on litterally any Ambience Lab's vid.
Me, 2 mins in: I have four new elaborate DnD plotlines to implement!
Don't be shy, write them in the comment section
Please! Do what he ^ says!
Geez, that place looks like it belongs in Edgar Allen Poe's The Raven O.O
Hey! This looks almost exactly like my house!
You really deserve more viewers. I love listening to all this stuff!
That organ melody at the beginning sounds like a mix of Castlvania’s Bloody Tears! ❤️
This goes so well as a background sound, and is rich and complex at the same time.
It can't be easy to create such a soundtrack; I 'Like' this, and 'Subscribed' .
Okay, this is my favorite Halloween/haunted ambient track. The sounds are perfect, well blended, no one sound overpowers the rest, they're spaced out well so you don't get tired of any of them. Love it.
LOVE IT.. I was curious for a bit about how the fireplace worked until I realized this wasn't necessarily set in the past.
Listening to this whilst writing a horror story for uni. Its set within a creepy mansion and this ambience suits the tone perfectly! Thank you so much!
I love the little tune that plays in the start.
hopefully the ghost that roams this mansion is hot
My thoughts exactly tho lmaoo
That's a strange thing to say.
Honestly I’d tap some ghost
Oh they are, I've seen them 👌
Ghost lovers, for when your own moaning isn't enough...
No live organism can continue for long to exist sanely under conditions of absolute reality; even larks and katydids are supposed, by some, to dream. Hill House, not sane, stood by itself against its hills, holding darkness within; it had stood so for eighty years and might stand for eighty more. Within, walls continued upright, bricks met neatly, floors were firm, and doors were sensibly shut; silence lay steadily against the wood and stone of Hill House, and whatever walked there, walked alone.
My favorite book of all time!!!!!!!!
I'm going to play this when I have trouble going to sleep. It is so peaceful!
Thank you SO much for this awesome video! I watch it at least twice a week and everything about it is amazing to me! Your attention to detail the sounds are incredible I just want to jump through the screen and be a part of the haunted dinner! My favorite part is when the door creaks open and you hear a monster 'hiss" it cracks me up! I love it! Thank you so much for sharing your amazing talent with all of us!
This was so well done! I expected Vincent Price or Christopher Lee to make an appearance at any moment.
Ok but the child laughing???? While I’m reading a horror novel?? Spoooooked.
i was playing a horror game and the horror guy opened a door and closed one and the ambience played a opening and closing sound of a door!! perfect timing
Nice work, very eerie! You can imagine hearing this after getting lost in a snowstorm in the middle of nowhere then coming across a seemingly abandoned house. That open coffin though... :o
Oh my god, this is amazing!! When that music started I fucking SLAMMED the like button!
I love this new series of ambient videos, so well conducted, especially these spooky ones! I may just play this outside at night in October.
Gorgeous! A squatters magnet!
I'd live here. The ghosts play free music. Awesome.
Love this! I put it on at night and feel like I’m falling asleep in an old, haunted mansion.
This video was so relaxing to listen to. As I worked at my computer this video helped me to be so calm and productive, Thank you so much for posting. I listened through all of it.
I'm waiting for Vincent Price to appear and do his "Thriller" laugh.
The mansion is too scary , who there is in the haunted mansion ? I hear footsteps and the door creak , yes someone is walking the mansion's inside
Great video! Thank you!
I want to live in this mansion. It has the creepy style that I love and there are ghosts. It is just perfect.
Step one - Play this on loop on a high quality surround sound system
Step two - Turn the volume up enough to feel the vibrations of the subwoofer in your body.
Step three - Turn off all the lights, lie down, close your eyes and clear your mind.
Step four - Enjoy the surreal experience.
Lost human sitting at table: ... So will the other guests be joining us for dinner?
Raven from nowhere: *Never more*

This music - and these sounds- . Everything here is AMAZING. Congrats! Thanks for your job!
~Spooky soundscape...perfect for Halloweentime🎃🎃🎃
oh boi a jumpscare in middle of this is just gonna be the cherry on top
I really like how this has the Harry potter forbidden library vibes
Houses... are alive. This is something we know. News from our nerve endings.
If we're quiet, if we listen, we can hear houses breath. Sometimes, in the depth of the night, you can even hear them groan.
It's as if they were having bad dreams. A good house cradles and comforts, a bad one fills us with instinctive unease.
Bad houses hate our warmth and our human-ness.
That blind hate of our humanity is what we mean when we use the word "haunted". - Dr. Joyce Reardon, Rose Red (2002)
Stand back! Protect yourselves! Who knows what evil lurks behind the hallowed walls in the house of the haunted! - Ed, Ed, Edd n Eddy - Honor Thy Ed
Either we take our chances with the ghosts or become ghosts ourselves. - Robin of Locksley, Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves (1991)
You see, nobody ever goes in... and nobody ever comes out. - The Tinker, Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory (1971)
14:00 Are you coming downstairs for dinner son?
Son: Hiiiiiissssss
Nevermind!
Ettthallliiaarrmmusssss
I cant come never neither downstairs nor the mansion , someone is walking in the haunted mansion , who is it ? Cant know , l must say that , dont sleep alone where in any room in the mightnight , because who may come to your side for kill
O-M-G! This is exactly how I pictured the great hall in the book I'm reading! This is perfect!! Thank you! Book - Haunted: Purgatory by Lee Mountford
Really cool. Thank you
At a certain point u gotta just accept the ghost and get carpets installed and wd40 your hinges so they can walk without stomping like 5 yr olds
I've never made one of these, so I don't know about what effort it takes. But it would be nice to see some movement- like when the door creaks, the door moves... Or a ghostly figure goes across the balcony...

Fantastic work!
This is beautifully done! I am beyond stunned you deserve more subscribers!
This video reminds me so much of the haunted mansion back at Disneyland, beautifully haunting. I'm curious what's the backstory? :)
This is just awesome! I didn't searched for this but the TH-cam algorithm seems to know what I needed.
Epic background, epic sounds, thank you! :)
Absolutely Love This one. 🤘
Another Masterpiece!
Such a good ambience
Excellent work.
Apparently, I've been thinking about Malfoy-manor while listening this.
Thanks, this scene of nature is fantastic inspiring to me. Really great visual video. Sounds of nature, listening to wind sounds are calming and smooth. A wonderful n peaceful piece for all! Infinite love!🙏
Reminds of the Von Everec Estate from Witcher 3: Hearts of Stone
I feel at home, it's the most inviting haunted mansion i've heard... i wanna be there, explore and sit by the fireplace~
It's just me who feel comforted by these sounds, so don't mind me xd;; hahah
listening to this while all of the house's lights are off, just my lampshade and me studying in the middle of the night.
u r a god
I love this!
Wow this is awesome!
The same , cant stay even one night in this house
I love this! you feel like you are there i want to live there x
This looks exactly like the inside of the Haunted Mansion at Disney World
J adore this job...a very castel😍😍and music perfect
Yeeeeees, that's the way i like! thanks
I remember when I was a kid I would sleep to the haunted house windows 95 screen saver. This is the HD version of it, lol! Just one small nitpick. I found the howling wind to be a bit to loud. I think it took away from the other creepy sounds a little. Great sleeping video none the less!
I wouldnt have gone the haunted house , it is scared enough me even aswell when the hounted house's window was made to look from.outside
What fun !!!
That’s so awesome
Wow, what a mansion!!!!
Surviving a haunted house is easy, just DO NOT INVESTIGATE ANYTHING!!!!!! Back yourself up in a corner with your back touching the wall. Hunch down and wait the night out. Guarantee you'll live and you'll get that 10 million easy.
I feel like the dog in the game, just relaxing and taking a nap in some room in a bed all cozy or taking a nap in the living room on the floor or the couch just listeing to evrything and feeling comfortable and falling asleep, and i love it
( or digging outside and finding a crystal and thne throwing it into a tree branch )
