  • Red Mist or a certain Squidward creepypasta is one of the most popular and influential Creepypasta, especially in the most episode genre. However, not a ton of video recreations of the story have come out, especially compared to the likes of Sonic Exe and slenderman. Even so, one video has done the story justice and then some. A video by vibingleaf called, “Red Mist Retake”. Today I’ll be talking about why the video is so good, and I hope you enjoy!

And squidward looks funny in the original image but in this re-take he can be seen as depressed and the dark shadowing makes him more unnerving to look at. And the dead censored kids in the original are just there for shock value but In this it clearly means something especially because of the end where you can seen the uncensored versions of them.

      it’s almost like the sadness and depression of not having squidward around was really affecting them, and the red mist was about to affect them just like it did with squidward. But like you said, because they stayed positive it’s most likely they won’t be affected by the red mist and try to move on with their lives the best they can. I really do like how the red mist retake shows what suicide feels and what it looks like. To even showing how it affects them, it’s hauntingly accurate and beautiful. I wish for more creepypastas to show more emotion like that.

    I really appreciate how the end was handled. As someone struggling with depression, the line “sometimes [people] don’t want to live anymore, and it can be for any reason.” really made me feel validated. You don’t really see suicidal struggles simplified like that, and people sometimes don’t understand that when someone commits suicide, it’s not as simple as finding a particular reason for it. The fact is, some people just DON’T want to be here and it’s as simple as that.

    "however unlike the story, he hears a knock on the door"
    Now from my knowledge, you are only Half correct.
    The creepypastas known as Squidward's Su*c*de and Redmist are actually two separate stories.
    Red Mist being the Original and SS being a sorta dumb'd down remake that got the most popular from it's more subtle story and way more graphic details.
    The Redmist version of the story actually does have the Scotfish claiming that the "Red Mist is Coming" so it isn't a new element made for the Re-Take.
    Edit: Aight people told me SS did come before Red Mist and that Red Mist was an improvement of the original SS. But I am still correct about how the Scotfish was apart of the Red Mist version of the story.

    Sometimes, I feel like the red mist mentioned is rather squidwards depression. A feeling which instead of anger, it's his depression. He tried so hard on what he loves and is passionate about it, but no matter how hard he tries, people still hate his talent and his work. It could be the reason he takes his life, as he hit a rock bottom point. I also understand the aftermath of squidwards death, as the ones who were close and loved ones mourn him. They believe they did something wrong and were unable to reach out to him during his time of need. The distortion might be the depression lingering around them, "infecting" them as mentioned in the video.

Suicide is never the answer. I wish Squidward was saved by someone before he died by the red mist. The impact on your death will affect so many you love. You will lose any chance of anything getting any better once you do horrible things to yourself.

I really adds to this idea of the Red Mist being a manifestation of declining mental health/depression which affects squidward. I mean, his clarinet playing being bad is canon and the butt of multiple jokes, so it only makes sense that there's not something out of place or paranormal that drives hate for it in this case. Just sort of adds more by being simpler.

    This was a really good remake of the pasta, and way better than the others. It has its own things inside, and it even includes the dead children from the original story, but in a way that doesn't make it just for shock value but actually utilized for squidwards madness. Also I like how chill Patrick was when talking about SpongeBob on how suicide works, very reminiscent of how chill he was on season one, despite the episode being on Season 4. The aesthetic of the episode also feels like it was from a episode being worked on and being dropped because of it's disturbing nature. Very cool retake.

    i interpret the red mist as a heavy feeling of humilation
    notice how when the fish in the beginning tried to interact with squidward, but immediately being dismissed? idk about you but that can cause one to feel humiliated because the fish does not fully understand that squidward is just trying to move on with his day
    this "red mist" can happen to anyone because it is a feeling that you have

  • @pocsgaming
    @pocsgaming ปีที่แล้ว +11

    The red mist is absolutely terrifying. Even more than any generic horror movie killer. Because, while other creepypastas kill the victim in usually gruesome ways, the red mist uses mental warfare only to destroy them. The monster does not kill them, but is only a brief apparition that pushes the mind of squidward to its limits, causing him to do... That.
    Not to mention how horrifying the fish at the beginning phrased as if it's "Coming"
    I would've probably been terrified and filled with dread if I knew something unknown called "The red mist" was coming to my Town,and even, my home.

  • @BIGBOYGAMING03
    @BIGBOYGAMING03 ปีที่แล้ว +27

    I'd like to imagine that the hyper realistic eyes were a more deep meaning part of Red Mist. I think it represents how Squidward views others when they tell him or show him he isn't good at what he does. I think he believes the eyes are the hatred and anger of the other fish putting him down for just wanting to pursue music. When Squidward finally has these eyes, it likely represents how he succumbed to his depressive and dark thoughts and sees these demonic figures that represent his doubts and lack of self esteem which he responds by offing himself as he sees it as his only way out

  • @StutteryBoi

    The ending is genius. A lot of these old stories don’t have a genuine conclusion. Something about seeing the grief and regret from SpongeBob and Patrick at the end really brings this all together. Just two friends, reflecting on what they’ve lost and giving each other comfort. In a way, it makes the story seem a lot more human. Maybe I’m thinking about it a little too deeply, but the retake really does make you think differently about the original story.

    The Red Mist is just an allegory for depression or other mental illnesses. That's why it hung around squidward and got worse after the concert and why spongebob got distorted after finding squidward's body. Patrick talking to him is what ended up snapping him out of it, which is why the corruption didn't get as far with him as it did with Squidward.
    It's especially telling that no-one seems to be able to see the red mist accept the people who are currently going through some kind of crisis. No-one noticed what was going on with squidward which is why no-one tried to talk to or comfort him, which is what eventually lead to him killing himself and Patrick just stopped the same thing from happening to spongebob accidentally. This is why it's really important to talk to and check on your friends especially after something bad happens to them.

    And it waits, until some of your worst days in life come, to take you at your lowest, not really the moment you would decide to end it all, but just close enough for it to push you over the edge when you're most vulnerable, and make it seem to everyone that you just took your own life due to the unfortunate circumstances

    They say that it's scarier to not show the audience something. This is true in most cases, but with lost episode creepypastas, you kinda need to show it in order to be creepy, as the story on its own sounds really stupid. With the rise of analog horror in recent years, I wouldn't be surprised if more lost episode creepypasta's got this treatment.

Squidward does more than just Clarinet Practice, he does Art. if people booed him, he'd be Sad, Sure. But he'd still have something else to live for. In fact, he's shown multiple times that he DOES like SpongeBob and Patrick deep down inside and that he'd go insane without them and Transform into them as a Coping mechanism.

    I'd like to think that the "Red Mist" is a metaphor for the deteriorating mental state of Squidward (and possibly the fish around him), as a few others before me have pointed out. I also like the fact that what the "Red Mist" truly is is left up for the viewer to interpret. It adds a layer of mystery that you just wouldn't have gotten from the original. With context clues from the retake, mainly how Squidward is portrayed with the entity of the "Red Mist", it looks like a dark, decrepit, and deteriorated version of himself, reflecting his mental state. Again, this is just my personal take on VibingLeaf's version of Red Mist.
