Hopping on top comment to say 35:00 the symptoms of a werewolf sound a lot like the symptoms of rabies. The whole extreme thirst, fatigue, looking pale, drooling, aggressively attacking people while behaving like an animal and growling, the fact you become a werewolf in most Legends by being bit by a werewolf, that just screams rabies to me. Sometimes rabies victims are afraid of water but not always I wonder if cases of rabies were actually the origin of werewolves. And wolves themselves can and do carry rabies but healthy wolves for the most part totally avoid humans but lived in very close proximity to humans and livestock back then (because there were a much much larger amount of wolves because there wasn't as much development back then). A wolf with rabies would have no fear of humans it would just stand there and drool and then attack and bite if not kill the humans. So to onlookers and witnesses all they would see is a wolf not acting like a normal wolf who bites someone then they gets rabies and start behaving like a wolf. It would seem to them a clear case of lycanthropy. Rabies definitely existed back then but they didn't know it existed so cases of rabies would naturally be categorized as cases of lycanthropy.
"Can you imagine being the person who has to do these lines in the studio?" I have some AMAZING news for you: the person who played the parrot... also played Nancy, so she's just talking to herself in a parrot voice lmao
no but he had a best friend who he did everything with and was buried with. they also used to send letters to each other where they seemed to be role playing, one of them as a woman.
@@nocturnalizzie pretty much everyone i went to school with had a monsters and mythology phase at some point, and I graduated in 2001 :p it has nothing to do with "hotness", kids are drawn to the unknown.
I used to play these games with my grandma. We’d sit and make notes together and laugh after I’d scare myself. They’re some of my favorite memories. Seeing Gab play them again gives me the warm fuzzies.
my best friend and i used to play these games all in one sitting. we'd sit in the same chair and doodle notes on post-its to figure out all of the puzzles. i still have some of the notes from 8th grade tucked inside the cd cases! somehow i still have that damn song jane hums burned into my memory
Me too! Eventually I just bought little journals to write all the notes down. I think I have a couple different ones that have like all the answers to a couple of the games 😂
@@allison8396 I always played them with my mom too! I have the games on CDs so I can't really play them on new computers, but my boyfriend recently said he'd love to play with me. I'm so excited to make new memories with these wonderful games :D
These games *love* putting references to each other wherever they can. Brady Armstrong is an actor you meet in the fifth game, The Final Scene. Nigel's computer background shows him in the castle that the fourth game took place in. The Bul game Jane forces you to play to hear about the passageway was part of the sixth game. Oh, and clicking the chattery teeth a bunch of times makes something fun happen. :) If I remember correctly, the lady who voices Nancy is also the voice of Loulou. (She did the voice of some dark elves in Skyrim, too.) And the cakes you make for Loulou don't need to be proper ratios for nutrition, you just can't poison her, haha. An exclamation mark on the phone just means something has changed, like a new thing to search or a new thing that someone will say when you call them. I tend to ignore that when I play. :P
YEEESS! This was my first Nancy Drew game when I was a kid. There were some parts that actually scared me so bad that it took a while for me to come back to it, but my mom helped me through it and we beat it together. Thanks for bringing those good memories back to mind!
I'm 12 minutes in and got to the point where the girl "whacks the frog back into the pond" and it reminds me of the best job I ever had, when I had to start walking there at 5am and I'd see either frogs or toads on my pathway, I'd always make up stories for their journeys in my head, because it would make my walk more bearable at such an early hour. They were always heading to a tea party or a fancy luncheon with the frog/toad Queen!
Nancy drew!!! I’ve been playing these games since I was in elementary school. It was something my mother and I played together. Even now that I’m about to graduate from college we still play them together when we have the chance. This game in particular is actually one of my favorites!
I LOVE the puzzles in this game. They’re difficult without being unfair or unintuitive, and there’s so many without it overwhelming the story. Beautifully integrated and designed. ❤️ Imagine an escape room but instead of a single room you had an entire manor to explore!
I swear you always play Nancy Drew when I'm going through the most stressful times in my life. It's such a great pick-me up to see you laugh and have fun with these types of games like I did when I was a kid. 💖
I've never played these Nancy Drew games, but seeing you and other people in the comments so excited about it, with fond memories and all, I also get so hyped and nostalgic for some reason ahuaahahahah Great content as always!
I didn't realise it was an opera until I looked it up. I recognised it as the ring of nibelung but from the old stories my mom told me (with german to english translations. I looked it up because I couldn't remember the name of the epic (which is Nibelungenlied btw) I just remembered that the ring of nibelung was an important item in the original epic. I'm only familiar with the stoies my family passes down through the generations though.
Oh, so it's an Opera! Okay, that's great. I only remember bits of the Nibelungen (Nibelungenlied) due to my courses... But wasn't that aware if one of the stories contains a ring ... But that's interesting!
@@christhesquirrel9432 Specifically " the ring of Nibelung" is an opera but it is based on on an old german epic called Nibelungenlied (which translates to "the song of the Nibelungs")
They're in Essex. But the cook at the pub is using Cockney rhyming slang. "Robin Hood" is "really good", "Uncle Fred and Johnny Rutter" is bread and butter, "Dogs Eye" is meat pie, "Pinky and Perky" is turkey. But "Becks and Posh" seems to refer to the Beckhams? "Fish and taters" is "see you later". Bangers are yummy sausages!
@@WhitneyDahlin Well she *is* Dutch, but since she knows Japanese so well and has lived in Japan she always reads Japanese with the correct accent and pronunciations Except... That was Latin, which was adorable xd
MY MOM AND I USED TO PLAY THESE ALL THE TIME!! We hardly solved any of the puzzles aside from the obvious ones, but we were happy to play and spend time together.
Gab struggling to pronounce 'lycanthropy' because she's already said it so many times, is the cutest thing ever. Words really do lose their meaning if you say them too much.
Oh my gosh the nostalgia! I loved these when I was younger but this one has a special place in my hear because the beginning freaked me and my friend out so bad.
I kept saying "someone tell her it's like quartets!" to my screen when Gab was trying to figure out Go Fish 😂 Can't believe she didn't ever play with a proper set of quartets cards, they can be quite cute or fun!
This game is so nostalgic for me, I've played through it so many times when I was in middle school, and hearing the music almost made me cry from all the memories it brings back! I have never been happier to see someone play through a game, so glad to see you playing it and hope you play it all the way through!
Work is very slow today so I got to spend some time in the back and watch this video and now I feel so cozy and happy. This was a fun Nancy Drew. There is something about puzzle games like this that remind me of childhood and making up mysteries by myself and creating clues and silly solutions.
Here's some info about the poster in Jane's room that says "Der Ring des Nibelungen" for those who are curious: "Der Ring des Nibelungen" (translation: The Ring of the Nibelung) is a very well-known German opera by Wagner that is an adaptation of an old Germanic epic poem called the Nibelungenlied. The titular Nibelungs are a race of dwarves in the legend. My guess is that Jane has this opera poster and all those other ones (Aida, Madame Butterfly) on her wall because they're shows her mother has performed in
Man, I was just rewatching your playthrough of the Ghost of Thornton Hall to keep me company while I worked, was bummed when I got to the end and then realised you've just started another Nancy Drew game. Perfect timing, Gab!
I'm so excited for this! Me and my sister used to play this together and then when there were scary parts we'd wait for my dad to get home and make him play them for us
17:10 - Yes, that is really how Cockney rhyming slang works. Most slang is an attempt to talk to a friend without anyone overhearing. It's a way of signaling who is "one of us" and who is not.
I had a heart attack when I saw this! I grew up playing the Nancy Drew games and have played them all. This one is one of the best ones and it brings back so many memories from my childhood. Thank you for playing this!
Me and my best friend were so obsessed with these games in middle school! I have such specific memories of buying the games from Best Buy and looking up walkthroughs on the HER interactive forum when we were stuck.
Ohhhh, my favourite Nancy Drew game, can't wait for more 🥰😭 All the secret passages, alchemy puzzles, monsters and ghost, gargoyles, the overall aesthetics - sooo cool!
28:47 This sparked my SIX knowledge, Cathrine and Anne were the names of four (almost five) of king Henry viii’s wives, and Mary was Cathrine of Aragon’s daughter.
Why do I feel like Jane inherited Mrs Drake's brother's humor and talent in pranks so she just wanted to prank her new step mother and is actually the one suggesting her becoming a Werewolf by giving her books about these stuff and using her family knowledge to create some sort of illusion.
I love these kinds of games, there are a bunch based on Agatha Christie's books too and she's one of my favourite authors of all time! I recommend Death on the Nile or Dead Man's Folly :D
Stop, Gab and I are both Virgos and the year of the dragon!!!! And I find out while watching Nancy, my fav JR detective! This is the best day of my life :)))
I played all the games as a kid with my sister and we still play them whenever we hang out and see each other. Brings back so many happy memories. Thank you for playing these
Literally found this channel last night through puppet combo Night Watch and had no idea Gab also did ND. Super excited, nothing quite like a good first time playthrough :)))))) This game is smack dab in the middle of the ND golden age (9-13) and is such a fun and moody adventure of creepy occult sciences, fantastic soundtracks, and two separate but parallel mysteries, each with plenty of clues sprinkled throughout the game hiding in plain sight. Could definitely make my top 5 favorites :)
THIS IS MY FAVORITE NANCY DREW GAME!!! It was the first one I ever played! I even had a while walkthrough on paper that I made from way too many playthroughs. 😍 I'm so excited to see you play!
This absolutely made my day 🙌 thank you for the video. These games are so much fun, I love piecing all the clues and puzzles together. And this one has so many minigames lol!! Poor Jane, she just wants someone to play with. 😊 Can’t wait for the next part ✨
AAAAAAHHHH!!! I have such good memories tied to this game. Me and my 2 sisters crammed together around a laptop. Writing down every little detail in our "detective" journal, spending hours on certain puzzles... Watching you play this makes me feel like I'm 10 years old again. Thank you for playing this. P.s. Absolutely love the twilight princess play through.
Yess, I've been waiting for new Nancy Drew series, thank you so much, Gab! And I feel so bad that I missed this stream, because of my studies. By the way, you look so pretty with this hairstyle
My God, the voice acting! I couldn't stop giggling. I'm exciting to watch you finish this! I never did get into Nancy Drew Games as a kid, but I loved the books.
Got so excited when the paper about the Futhark came up! I’ve started leaning how to read and write old Norse, and I just got my first rune set! It’s made of labradorite! 🥰
This is one of the first ND games I played, I got a two-in-one with this and The Secret of Shadow Ranch :) I'm so happy you're playing these, they're fun to share and it brings back a lot of great memories! I can't wait to see more :)
My daughter watches your ND videos. We used to play these games together when she was a young girl. We used to look forward to new releases. This brings back a lot of fond memories. Thank you! ❤
I'm so excited that you're playing more Nancy Drew! I played most of these growing up and I'm so excited to see your playthroughs. Your channel is a such a bright spot on TH-cam.
I'd love to see you play the Captive Curse. It's one of my favorites in the Nancy Drew games, and it also takes place in a spooky old castle with a monster
Hello 👋 Half German half American (Irish ancestry) here. "Der Ring der Niebelungen" is an opera by Richard Wagner . The Poster next to it "Aida" is also a famous opera.... I've forgotten by whom at the moment. Der Ring Der Nibelungen is based on old german saga basically about Siegfried the hero who slayed the dragon protecting the "Rheingold" a treasure hidden at the botom of the Rhein a big river in Germany. He famously bathed in the dragons blood which made him invincible exept for a tiny place on his back where a leaf landed and the dragons blood didn't get to. It's a whole saga it starts with the daughters of the River who are the treasures keepers ... I think. It's a looooooong story and I'm afraid I've forgotten most of it. The opera goes on for DAYS and I'm not even exaggerating. Anyways her mom starring in a Wagner opera and Aida must mean she is a dramatic soprano (female opera singers who specialize in singing very high and loud basically they typically have very mature voices that can produce a lot of volume... there are also lyric sopranos and coloratur sopranos more delicate voices that specialize in other fields of opera )
I apologize for commenting three times on the same video, but 28 minutes in and you've got yourself a typical Irish family tree. I only have to go back three generations and I can match all of those names to the Irish versions in my family!
Can't tell you how big a smile I had watching this video! These games were so important to me growing up, seeing your reaction to the little quirks of the characters and puzzles is so therapeutic after a hard week. PLEASE don't stop.
Rewatching this for background noise when I hear the part about the "bow-tie" rune being Othala at 33:21 .... that's... that's Dagaz.... "D"... they mixed up Othala and Dagaz...
I was reading out the 'bling' 'bah' 'woop's with Evelien whilst she was going up the stairs, and was like "woah" at the same time when she came across those switches 😄
Also, as someone who spent thee first 31 years of their life living in London, that cockney rhyming slang is even beyond me. (Though I have had a few glasses of pinot)

Der Ring des Nibelungen is an opera. Combined out of four music dramas. Richard Wagner worked on it from 1848 to 1874

Fun fact: there's actually a name for that. It's called semantic satiation!
I've seen her videos she has trouble pronouncing everything

I love when Gab plays these Nancy Drew games. They are so fun.
“PP haha I typed PP”

I love these kinds of games, there are a bunch based on Agatha Christie's books too and she's one of my favourite authors of all time! I recommend Death on the Nile or Dead Man's Folly :D
Keep the Nancy Drew games coming Gab! I’m sooo stoked!
Grenny's fairytale feels like a game of Zelda if it ended right after Link got the Master sword. xD
"you will be the fellowship of the ring" *end of whole series*
ez
The Curse of Blackmoor Manor is one of my favorites. I love the parrot so much. Lol
Stop, Gab and I are both Virgos and the year of the dragon!!!! And I find out while watching Nancy, my fav JR detective! This is the best day of my life :)))
"What kind of little girl reads a book like that" Linda I'm standing right here
I played all the games as a kid with my sister and we still play them whenever we hang out and see each other. Brings back so many happy memories. Thank you for playing these
Literally found this channel last night through puppet combo Night Watch and had no idea Gab also did ND. Super excited, nothing quite like a good first time playthrough :))))))
This game is smack dab in the middle of the ND golden age (9-13) and is such a fun and moody adventure of creepy occult sciences, fantastic soundtracks, and two separate but parallel mysteries, each with plenty of clues sprinkled throughout the game hiding in plain sight.
Could definitely make my top 5 favorites :)
Funny seeing you here 👀
@@thenerdyberty ERM UH I CAN EXPLAIN
THIS IS MY FAVORITE NANCY DREW GAME!!! It was the first one I ever played! I even had a while walkthrough on paper that I made from way too many playthroughs. 😍 I'm so excited to see you play!
This absolutely made my day 🙌 thank you for the video. These games are so much fun, I love piecing all the clues and puzzles together. And this one has so many minigames lol!! Poor Jane, she just wants someone to play with. 😊 Can’t wait for the next part ✨
I am so happy to see Gab playing Nancy Drew. These games have good puzzles and I am looking forward to her commentary.
AAAAAAHHHH!!! I have such good memories tied to this game. Me and my 2 sisters crammed together around a laptop. Writing down every little detail in our "detective" journal, spending hours on certain puzzles... Watching you play this makes me feel like I'm 10 years old again. Thank you for playing this.
P.s. Absolutely love the twilight princess play through.
Yess, I've been waiting for new Nancy Drew series, thank you so much, Gab! And I feel so bad that I missed this stream, because of my studies. By the way, you look so pretty with this hairstyle
My God, the voice acting! I couldn't stop giggling. I'm exciting to watch you finish this! I never did get into Nancy Drew Games as a kid, but I loved the books.
Got so excited when the paper about the Futhark came up! I’ve started leaning how to read and write old Norse, and I just got my first rune set! It’s made of labradorite! 🥰
Love, love, love Gab playing Nancy Drew ❤️
Lūdi sine gaudio, lūdi non sunt
A game without joy is not a game
Ludi is latin for game
Gaudio is happy/fun
Non sunt means "are not/is not"
I have 31 Nancy Drew games on my Big Fish Games account. Loved every single one, this included.
This game legit scared me when I first played it! One of the scariest ND games hands down. So excited to see you play it!
This is my favourite ND game! The setting and the story are so extra. And you get ALL the puzzles!
I played this when I was younger. This brings back memories.
This was one of my favorite Nancy Drew games growing up. All the puzzles and spooks, good times!
"I hope you don't mind, I put butter in your door."
I loved playing these games! Really brings back memories. So cool you like them too.
This is one of the first ND games I played, I got a two-in-one with this and The Secret of Shadow Ranch :) I'm so happy you're playing these, they're fun to share and it brings back a lot of great memories! I can't wait to see more :)
My daughter watches your ND videos. We used to play these games together when she was a young girl. We used to look forward to new releases. This brings back a lot of fond memories. Thank you! ❤
DUDE I PLAYED THIS WHEN IT FIRST CAME OUT AND COULD NEVER SOLVE IT CUZ I WAS LIKE 11! You just unlocked a memory for me! I LOVED this game!!
I'm so excited that you're playing more Nancy Drew! I played most of these growing up and I'm so excited to see your playthroughs. Your channel is a such a bright spot on TH-cam.
When i got this notification, i basically screamed because this is one of my fav nancy drew games and also happy cause gab is finally playing it!
Not even 3 minutes in and the aunt really said "If you heard something, no you didn't" 😂
I'd love to see you play the Captive Curse. It's one of my favorites in the Nancy Drew games, and it also takes place in a spooky old castle with a monster
When Jane talks about Brady Armstrong he’s actually an actor that’s a main character in Nancy drew game #5 The final scene :)
Hello 👋
Half German half American (Irish ancestry) here. "Der Ring der Niebelungen" is an opera by Richard Wagner . The Poster next to it "Aida" is also a famous opera.... I've forgotten by whom at the moment. Der Ring Der Nibelungen is based on old german saga basically about Siegfried the hero who slayed the dragon protecting the "Rheingold" a treasure hidden at the botom of the Rhein a big river in Germany. He famously bathed in the dragons blood which made him invincible exept for a tiny place on his back where a leaf landed and the dragons blood didn't get to. It's a whole saga it starts with the daughters of the River who are the treasures keepers ... I think. It's a looooooong story and I'm afraid I've forgotten most of it. The opera goes on for DAYS and I'm not even exaggerating. Anyways her mom starring in a Wagner opera and Aida must mean she is a dramatic soprano (female opera singers who specialize in singing very high and loud basically they typically have very mature voices that can produce a lot of volume... there are also lyric sopranos and coloratur sopranos more delicate voices that specialize in other fields of opera )
I wish I hadn't missed this live omg, love the series, one of the all-time best puzzle games for Nancy Drew, yeeeeeeesssssss!
I apologize for commenting three times on the same video, but 28 minutes in and you've got yourself a typical Irish family tree. I only have to go back three generations and I can match all of those names to the Irish versions in my family!
Can't tell you how big a smile I had watching this video! These games were so important to me growing up, seeing your reaction to the little quirks of the characters and puzzles is so therapeutic after a hard week. PLEASE don't stop.
So is Linda a werewolf?
"can you imagine having a wallpaper of yourself" bruh people do that tho oof😂😬
Gab is just out there roasting people
Rewatching this for background noise when I hear the part about the "bow-tie" rune being Othala at 33:21 .... that's... that's Dagaz.... "D"... they mixed up Othala and Dagaz...
Dudeeee you have no idea how excited I am for more Nancy Drew games from you! This one's gonna be great. Think you'll enjoy it.
Can't tell you how happy I was to see this game again!!!! I loved playing these games when I was a kid!!!
I was reading out the 'bling' 'bah' 'woop's with Evelien whilst she was going up the stairs, and was like "woah" at the same time when she came across those switches 😄
More, please you have to keep playing more of the classic Nancy Drew games. Brings back so many memories from when I played these with my mom
Also, as someone who spent thee first 31 years of their life living in London, that cockney rhyming slang is even beyond me. (Though I have had a few glasses of pinot)
